The Marrying Bet

The Lunch Surprise

The employees made a spectacle when the famous catering service came to the Royal Group office and immediately arranged the pantry so that it looked like a famous event. The long table is covered with a dark red tablecloth with gold ribbon. Artificial flowers are white with gold leaves decorate the table containing a variety of buffet foods. The employees wondered, what event is in their office to bring catering services?

There has never been any event or celebration ever celebrated in the company. Because the Ruler of the Royal Group did not like the celebration in the office because it adhered to the principle that the office is a place to work not a place to celebrate anything.

Ozy immediately glided to the gathering place of the crowd. Many foods are served in the pantry, ranging from standard buffet food in the form of rice, various side dishes, fried noodles, to soup. There are also goat bolsters, meatballs, soto, siomay, batagor, hodgepodge, chicken satay, to processed sea food such as black pepper crab to grilled fish.

"What is this event?" ask Ozy.

"Say, from his wife Mr. Roy," replied Mbak Yuni.

"Mister Roy's wife?!" Ozy.

"That his wife came, he said he was still chatting with Mr. Roy in the living room" said Mr. Satria who had been looking for information first.

They were all of course shocked, because suddenly, a foreign woman came claiming to be Mr. Roy's wife and asked permission to arrange lunch for her husband and all office employees.

"Geez, Mr. Roy's wife is so romantic" Ozy said.

"Finally answered who is Mr. Roy's wife" said Yuni.

...*****...

For Laras, it was easy to enter the company by claiming to be the wife of Mr. Viceroy who came to bring lunch for him.

Seeing the appearance of Laras who looks convincing, security officers contacted Mr. Riko because Mr. Viceroy is still not in place. Mr. Riko tried to contact his superior, but it still seemed to be busy. Mr. Riko thought that maybe it was a surprise prepared by his wife, so Mr. Riko allowed catering services to prepare their dishes.

Viceroy frowned as he stared at the incoming message notification on his smartwatch. Riko said that in the office there was a surprise prepared by his wife.

Viceroy thought, has Ozy told Vara his identity? After all Viceroy had already told Vara to use the money he was given. 

Viceroy smiled, Vara is really full of surprises.

...*****...

Viceroy parked his car in the parking lot. He saw a lot of people crowding, his presence splitting the masses that were swarming around the pantry that had been transformed into a banquet place.

He almost developed a smile on his face, but it did not happen, because seeing the figure of Laras from Aurum Mining who was in the pantry, the woman gave command to the catering officer.

"You're very generous, Mrs Laras," Viceroy said.

"It's just a small banquet, end you are difficult to be invited to lunch together, sir," said Laras. "So, I think, there is no harm in coming and taking you to lunch in your office, with the employees," continued Laras.

"sorry. I felt like twenty-four hours was a complete lack, ma'am," Viceroy said coldly.

"How about we eat now, sir?" bring Laras.

"I'm sorry, Mrs Laras, I still have meetings with other clients, but really, I thank you for your generosity" Viceroy said.

Laras looks disappointed, but the woman tries to cover it up.

"Then, excuse me" Viceroy said goodbye.

Viceroy came out of the living room, in the lobby he passed Ozy who seemed timid to look at him. 

"Sir Roy," Ozy greeted Viceroy.

Viceroy furrowed his brows, didn't Ozy usually call Viceroy Mas Handsome?

Does Ozy really not recognize him?

Viceroy hurried off to the parking lot. He called the security guard.

"Sir, next time, if anyone claims to be my wife, don't let in and make a crowd in the office!" viceroy said before entering his car.

Viceroy let out a heavy sigh upon entering the car. Looks like he just got hit by a prank.

...*****...

Meanwhile, Ozy still seems to be stalking the woman who claims to be his wife, Mr. Roy. The figure of an exotic-skinned woman who wears a sleeveless forward shirt, her waist is slender and small, but her hips are wide. Her hair was long and curls were smoothed, her face was taper and her lips thickly clad in bright red lipstick. Ozy wondered, this big-assed woman is actually Mr Roy's wife?

Women with faces that look like transvestites in salons in the market.  Ozy was amused to see her lashes that looked anti-storm, making the woman's small eyes drown in a sea of eyelashes.
