While in a room without two people sitting facing each other with only on the limit of an empty table.
One of them both without any worries. He repeatedly opened the file that Mr. Huang gave. However, in any reading, the content remains the same.
"Mr.Huang, please can't you give me time" Adinata said. He still can't just let go of his company.
"Sorry Mr. Adinata, everything was in our agreement at the beginning. You will return all loans with interest, and in addition, the price of your shares cannot cover all your debts. My master has been very kind not to confiscate your other assets," said Mr. Huang was calm.
"Who do you mean by sir?" Adinata scrunched her forehead in wonder.
"Yes, my master. The person who owns the largest stake in my company. He was the one who saved my company from bankruptcy" Mr. Huang said with a proud smile.
"She's been lending to you."
Adinata was surprised to hear Huang's words. All this time he thought that all the loans he received were from H. corp. But it turns out he was wrong.
His gratitude to the Wang family was huge. He is indebted to the unrequited. How not, when everyone kicked him out only Alex received it with open arms. Even when the company has switched hands to Alex. Mr. Huang is still in the trust to serve as CEO there. And keep running their business as it should be.
"If he is as good as you talk. Why is he blackmailing me like this?" adinata is frustrated.
"What do you mean, my master has been very helpful with providing unsecured loans to you. Give them a time to pay. What is less!"
"Even we do not ask for more from your company even though the overall price of its shares is not enough to cover your debt!"
Adinata fell silent, everything Huang said was true. That if they wanted to, the person called the master could have confiscated the large house in which his family lived. Because the stock price is not enough to cover the interest from the debt.
Mr. Huang clenched his hands tightly. He could not accept that his savior god was accused like that.
"I'm sorry. I just didn't expect it would all end this way. The company that my father raised and now ended up in my hands like this" Adinata said with regret.
Mr. Huang tried to hold back his emotions. He could understand what the man in front of him was feeling. Because Huang was also once in that position. However, the difference is that Huang is more fortunate because Alex helped him unconditionally.
"I understand sir, but the world is always turning. We can't stay on top forever."
"You're right." Adinata rubbed her face rough.
We cannot choose our destiny. We can just run it and try to do our best.
"Mr.Huang. Can I meet your master?" adinata said arriving.
He himself felt very curious about the figure of the master whom Huang spoke of. Adinata hopes she can have the same fate as Huang. He wanted to attempt to negotiate with that person called master.
"I don't know, sir is very busy. We only met when he called me. Why do you want to meet him?"
"I just wanted to thank you for helping me. Although he ended up taking my company as payment,"
"i'll try to ask you, sir,"
"Mr.Huang do I have to fire all my employees?"
"No need sir, let all stay in his position. Only the owner and the name of the company will try the rest will be arranged by my master."
"Thankfully, I was very confused by the fate of all my employees when it came to firing them. They are workers who are very loyal to the company, I hope your master will keep them all," Adinata said expectantly.
"Well I'll talk about it with my master.
Please sign the statement. Sorry I can't wait any longer. I still have another work schedule."
"Good."
Adinata reopens the closed file. With a heavy heart he put his signature on the stamp that was on the paper.
He has lost. Adinata has lost everything. There's nothing left. With a long sigh he gave the file he had signed.
"thank you. I hope in the future we can still work together Mr. Adinata," said Huang.
"Are you mocking me. I just handed over my company to you. And you say cooperation," said Adinata annoyed.
Huang laughed at Adinata's words. While Adinata looked at him with annoyance. Huang got up from his seat, then took the dossier that Adinata had signed.
"Hahahaha. I didn't mean it that way. However, is not the journey of our lives is still long, sir. We will never know what will happen in the future. Maybe you can get your company back, someday," Huang said with a dismissive smile.
"You don't have to keep making fun of me like that."
"Hahahaha.where was I making fun of you. I'm just a little joking."
"See you again, Mr. Adinata. Have a good day" said Huang, swinging his legs.
Huang's steps came to a halt as he almost reached the door. He turned his body around and saw Adinata's face still looking at him in annoyance.
"Please immediately empty this room. Because my master will soon occupy it," Huang said with a smirk smile, then resumed his steps.
Adinata clenched her hands tightly. How can he be told to clean things up in his own office. His office? Nope. This room is no longer his office. This building is no longer his.
Adinata picked up a box she had prepared under her desk. Take one by one his personal belongings.
The middle-aged man smiled gently as he looked at the photo he had displayed on his desk. A woman who was pregnant with Adinata by her side and a boy on the other side of her. They smile happily. Little exit.
"I miss you Anjar" said Adinata.
The man sat back in his chair. Hugging tightly the picture frame in his hand. The man was at his lowest point in business. He expects strength from someone he loves very much. But his love has gone.
He stared back at the photo for a moment. He took a picture of his wife pregnant with their daughter.
"I'm sorry. I can't make our kids happy." Adinata bowed in.
Sad, disappointed and sorry for himself, with what happened in the past and present. He used to believe fully in his mother who turned out to betray his trust, the mother he had always respected even had the heart to mistreat his wife and exchange her baby for the bodies of other people's babies. So that made his wife depressed until she died.
Maybe his bankruptcy was karma for him. Karma for having let her daughter live with great difficulty. While he dabbled in luxury.
After he finished putting some of his belongings in the box. Adinata walked out of the room.
All the employees looked down respectfully in anguish.Some gave him a goodbye hug. Adinata is a good leader. He always looks after all his employees. It's just that fate isn't on her side.
The Sasongko Big House.
Puspa who just came home from the Mall without getting angry. He continued to grumble along the way home and continued into the house.
Nana and Arow who saw her grandmother coming home with a sour face were astonished.
"Grandmother why?" ask Arow to his wife.
"Don't know, wasn't he okay?" ask Nana back.
The two decided to approach their grandmother who was sitting on the living room sofa.
"Grandmother why? did something happen?" asked Nana softly, then sat down next to the aged woman.
"Grandmother met a very annoying stranger earlier. He just kept turning around Grandma. Basic brash woman," said Puspa with a grunt.
Nana could only quietly listen to her grandmother when it was like this. Puspa took a small box from his bag. Then give it to Nana.
"It's a gift for you."
"Thank you, Grandma." Nana accepted it stiffly. He glanced at Arow who was sitting in front of him. Arow just put his shoulder out.
"Why don't you like it, I bought it because you gave a male descendant to this family. So accept it," said Puspa half annoyed. She still remembered how embarrassed she was to buy the necklace with her illegitimate granddaughter's money.
"I like it so much, thank you."
"Good."
"Arow why are all of my grandmother's credit cards unusable? what the hell is going on?"
Arow choked on air. He has not said anything to his grandmother. Arow believes her grandmother can run amok and Arie can't take the tantrum.
"Emh. that's Grandma." Arie rubbed his hands nervously. So did Nana, she joined in feeling nervous mixed with fear.
Even the one who saw it was suspicious.
"What's the matter exactly?!" hardik Puspa's.
Actually, we are bankrupt. Me, Arow we're both no longer owners of the company" said Adinata, who had just walked into the house.
At once woke up from his seat, he turned to look at his son.
"Hahahaha.don't joke with this old lady son, I'm afraid my heart won't be strong," Puspa chuckled, his laughter sounding loud. However, at once the laughter disappeared when he saw the face of his son who was so serious.
Puspa turned to look at Arow and Adinata. His face was red and held his anger.
"Stupid! You two don't have brains, huh! How can two companies fall simultaneously.
You're Adinata, I didn't educate you to be this kind of loser. You just run the company that my husband grew up in, why are you so stupid that you make him fail" cried Puspa.
Adinata just silently listened to her mother. And Nana and Arow prefer silence.
Puspa held his chest that felt tight. His head felt heavy and twisted.
"Mother." Adinata approached her mother who looked in pain.
His hands were stretched out to wipe him. However, immediately tepis by Puspa.
"Don't touch me, you useless son! Nana help grandma to the room!" decreed Puspa.
"Good, Grandma."
Nana stood up and helped Puspa walk to his room. Adinata could only sigh.
It won't be easy to explain everything to her mother. With all his ego and his mother's rigid way of thinking.
"How's Dad doing?" asked Arow with a wry smile.
"You stupid kid or something, ask your dad who just lost his company!"
"Sorry Dad," Arow replied with a bow.
Adinata smiled and walked over to her son. He hugged Arow briefly.
"We started everything from scratch." Adinata pats the child's shoulder firmly.
"Remember your son and wife, you must fight hard for them" Adinata added.
"Yes" said Arow with teary eyes.
Adinata patted Arow's shoulder again. He knew his son was worried about him. The middle-aged man was happy to get such attention, yet he was also sad to think of the youngest daughter who never contacted him again.
"Do you know how your sister is?"
"No dad, not even his cell phone is in contact anymore, and it looks like he's moved out of the apartment."
Adinata. A longing ranted in his heart.
