The Mist In Arumi's Heart

Mirella, the Blonde Girl

With gallant and dignified steps, Edgar, who was then followed by Louisa's assistant, entered the meeting room. Inside the ruanngan had been waiting for him several boards of directors from various divisions. The meeting was an internal meeting of the company, so it was only attended by the executives.

All eyes were on the handsome man who was now putting on a less friendly face. Edgar then took some maps that Louisa had just proffered. He put a pile of the map quite tight so that it makes a sound that is quite loud. Something that made everyone present in the room become even more silent and put on a tense face.

Edgar then sat in his great chair with great dignity. His sharp gaze began to sweep one by one the faces present in the meeting room. Edgar's gaze stopped on the chairman of the marketing board. The slightly fat man looked very pale and tense. He did not dare to fight Edgar's gaze, which felt like an arrow ready to be plunged directly into his heart.

Edgar's gaze then turned to the other chairman of the board who also preferred not to fight the hostile glare of the boss. Afterwards, Edgar turned his gaze to the chairman of the finance directors.

A short-haired young lady with gray eyes. Only the young woman still had the courage to fight Edgar's gaze which seemed to hold a lot of anger.

Staff from the IT department were also present at the meeting. They become the most responsible party for the failure of the security system, which resulted in the leak of data about customer funds resulting in huge losses to the company.

“Good morning all. Thank you for taking the time to be able to attend this internal meeting. As we already know about the current state of the company .. This is not good news," Edgar began to open a meeting that day.

"I've checked all the incoming reports and .. is it reasonable if I question your performance all this time?” Edgar continued with a tone that sounded calm but firm.

Silent, no one dared to make a sound back then. Everything looks tense.

“OK. I won't talk much anymore. First of all, I would like to speak to Mr. Damian Petit as an IT expert staff. I'd like you to completely overhaul all security systems and make them layered, so they're not easy to penetrate. We don't want things like this to happen again, do we? Why is this company's data security system so easy to penetrate? It's all your duty and responsibility, and I'm sure you're a lot more knowledgeable about it. That's why I've recruited you to join this company,” Edgar's gaze was fixed on the thin man, who had some time ago come to his residence.

The man whose full name was Damian Petit nodded politely. He approved all orders from his superiors without much protest.

Edgar's gaze now turned to the head of marketing. Edgar ordered him to make advertising announcements to the public, especially all customers who had entrusted their insurance coverage to Guzman Insurance Company. He wants the community, especially customers, to feel confident and calm, even though the company is currently faltering.

Last Edgar turned to a beautiful face that had not shifted his gaze from the boss who was full of charm.

“Nona Rupert, as the head of the finance division I hope you can cooperate with Mr. Petit in investigating where all customer funds are running! I don't think it's something that's difficult for you" Edgar said.

The young lady smiled as she nodded slowly.

"One more, for Customer Relations division please establish good cooperation with customers. Do not let them be disappointed and lose confidence in our company!” Edgar gave all the directions to his ranks.

It is unfortunate, because as a big boss he had to intervene in solving this problem, as if all his ranks were no one in dealing with the problems that were entangling his company.

“I hope all can carry out their duties with full responsibility. I am sure if all these problems will end soon and can be resolved properly, as long as we can work together to be able to solve them,” concluded Edgar. His gaze swept back over the faces sitting behind that oval-shaped table.

The meeting continued by listening to the exposure of the various divisions. To be sure, for almost three hours, Edgar sat in the room and forgot for a moment all his anxiety about Arumi.

At around empeteen local time, Edgar just came out of the meeting room. His face looked tired and somewhat shabby, but it did not detract from his charm at all.

Behind him follows the beautiful blonde assistant, Louisa. Edgar deserves to be crowned as a cassanova, because he is always surrounded by beautiful women wherever he is.

“Master Hilaire!” A soft voice called out Edgar's name from behind. Edgar knew that voice. The thirty-year-old man was stunned.

“Come back to your table, Louisa!” Edgar said without looking at the assistant. The slender young lady in a blazer suit and tight span skirt nodded politely. He continued his steps and left Edgar still standing in his place. Meanwhile, the owner of the voice that had called Edgar was now right behind him and hoped that Edgar would turn to him immediately.

“How are you, Mr Hilaire?” Greet the young lady who was in the meeting room. He stood up gracefully as he continued to cast his gaze at the beautiful man.

Edgar finally turned his head and looked at the young lady for a moment. “My news is not so good, Miss Rupert,” answered flatly.

The young lady smiled. “What if we drink coffee for a while? I think it can melt the tension a little after that boring meeting,” bargain the gray-eyed woman with her speech style that looks so graceful.

Edgar did not answer immediately. He just looked at the woman and squinted his eyes. While the woman still floated her seductive smile.

It was Mirella Rupert. A twenty-seven-year-old young woman who had been with Edgar's company for quite some time. In addition, Mirella is a former one of the blonde girls who used to play ‘’ with her, so it's only natural that the girl acted a little boldly to Edgar.

Edgar then allowed Mirella to walk first, as a sign that he agreed to the invitation. Mirella welcomed it with a happy hue. He then moved his leg. He deliberately showed his steps to Edgar who was behind him.

Not long ago, the two of them had been in a cafeteria located not far from the company building. After ordering two cups of coffee, they sat down facing each other.

Edgar still looks unfriendly. Another case with Mirella who had always smiled with full of temptation that he aimed for Edgar. However, Edgar seemed to have no intention of responding to it anymore.

"I came to your place a while ago. The old lady in your house, said that you were in Indonesia. I don't think you're back yet" Mirella began to open up a conversation between the two of them.

"Yes. Aunt Carmen already told me," Edgar replied flatly and briefly. He continued to avoid being seen with Mirella.

"I think you'll call me soon" Mirella regretted with a slightly disappointed look.

"I'm busy" said Edgar briefly. He then sipped his coffee again.

Mirella smiled cynically. "Yes, you are always busy when you take care of everything related to Arumi," Mirella said again. He looked upset at the time. Edgar looked at him quite sharply.
