The Love That Is Taken

Enjoying Solitude

He drew both palms in front of him and grasped them affectionately. “Papa and Aunt Mila will help you become a good wife to Jonathan Aditya. Isn't that right, Mila?”

His beloved wife nodded and smiled sincerely. Simon was so glad to see it. He did not know how his old age was without his noble wife. My son should have learned a lot from Mila how to serve his husband lovingly, he thought seriously. Suddenly a brilliant idea arose in the old man's mind.

“Mila, how about for a while we both stay with There here? Take all our daily supplies at home and bring them here. Tell Jonathan that we will be swapping residences for a while until There is really ready to reunite with him.”

The husband's obedient wife nodded in agreement. Then he said goodbye to take his personal belongings and Simon in their house. There watched her stepmother until her slender body figure was no longer visible.

“Tante Mila obedient once yes, Pa. She was also very painstakingly caring for Papa.”

Simon nodded. I will also form you to honor and cherish your husband as he, my son, the wise man's determination is in his heart.

It did not feel Jonathan had been living in his in-laws' house for over a month. During that time his life felt really comfortable and serene. No need to rush home after work. It is not uncommon to work late. The big problem in his paint factory was finally resolved well. The paint products returned by the distributors have been researched. The results found that there was one type of paint material replaced with similar materials that at first glance looked similar but turned out to be of lower quality. That is what causes the quality of its products to decline and disappoint consumers.

After being investigated, it turns out that the purchasing manager received bribes from suppliers of new materials to use their products as a substitute for old products that cost more. The difference in the purchase price of the material is darkened by the manager other than he himself also still gets a number of commissions from the supplier.

The senior manager finally admitted his actions after Jonathan showed evidence of his fraud over the past six months. The fifty-three-year-old man was eventually kicked out of the company with a severance pay of a year given his dedication to working at the company for over twenty years.

This is how the behavior of senior officials ex subordinate Papa first, inner Jonathan in heart. He thought that I was a stinking child who did not dare to rebuke the mistakes of the seniors just because they first worked in this company! They did not realize that I had slowly and imperceptibly put my men in strategic positions. The use to be on guard in case of frauds in the company can be immediately tracked.

Only Ms. Rosa is the only senior Papa employee I can count on, the inner son-in-law Simon Iskandar was concerned. He really works with the heart. Hopefully his nephew will inherit his dedication and his tantalizing loyalty.

Suddenly Bastian's warning flashed in his mind. “If you still intend to maintain your marriage, you should look for a mature secretary like Miss Rosa. The risk is small.”

Ah, it's too late, thought the husband of Theresa did not heed the warning of her best friend. Miss Rosa herself offered Karin to take her place as my secretary. I really feel sorry to refuse it. I think Papa will also make the same decision if he is in my position, he said in his heart.

There, why is he now? jonathan somewhat missed his chatty wife. I haven't contacted him since I left the house. Papa prevented me from contacting him so There really felt like I was losing myself and changing his bad qualities. Once every two days Aunt Mila came to see the state of her house while telling her about my wife's condition. He said There routinely counsels with psychiatrists three times a week and undergoes meditation therapy every day. He no longer hangs out with his social friends. Papa asked her not to contact me until her mental state was completely stable so that the words she spoke were no longer offensive.

Thank goodness that things are getting better. Actually he had a lot to learn from Aunt Mila how to be a good wife and housewife, thought the man admiring his stepmother-in-law. Aunt Mila is very capable of arranging her servants so that they can work well even without the supervision of the employer.

His house is always clean and tidy. The food is always ready at the same time and tastes delicious. It was really comfortable living in his house. Like being on vacation in a villa, praise Jonathan in your heart. If at my house, the one who was able to arrange the household was Bi Sum, not the hostess. Hopefully There's closeness with Aunt Mila every day can make him adopt the advantages of his stepmother.

Jonathan's phone rang. Bastian's name was on his screen. Immediately he pressed the logo pictured phone and lightly replied, “Halo, Bas.”

“Your bald bachelor! Hahaha..”.

“Very once you sound. Hepi ya single for over a month?”

“Why? Want tukeran?”

“Ogah, ah. Tukeran briefly keep turning again to be sprayed all-out every day! Who would? Hahaha..”.

“My mother-in-law said, There's a much calmer attitude now, Bas. Looks like this temporary farewell is good for both of us. Well, thankfully my in-laws intervened. Otherwise, we really broke up the other day.”

“Thank God if so. Are you still in the office? Not home yet?”

“This is just coming home. Why?”

“Nge-gym yuk, on D-Mall. Your member's still on the way, right?”

“Still, until next year. Are you there?”

“Otewe.”

“Ok, I go home first take the equipment continues to follow, yes. At most an hour from now to there.”

“Ok, Bro. Kutunggu.”

The phone connection was also cut off. Yes, Jonathan thought seriously. I am still free at this time, just satisfied to exercise. Even if There his condition improved when later we reunited, but not necessarily his jealousy reduced and let me often-gym. He said there were often inappropriate relationships between married people. He draws that conclusion from his social friends who like to exercise there. There are some of them who cheat with the instructor or with the members of the gym.

Lha, if you already know that how she used to still want to hang out with young mothers who lack work? thought sebal. Hopefully There won't be friends with them forever anymore.

“Hello, Jon! Apparently you gym here too,” greet a short-haired young lady with bright red.

Jonathan who was running leisurely on the treadmill gawked at the familiar look of the face but his appearance changed completely.
