THE PASSION OF THE CEO

CHAPTER 76. I'LL CALL YOU !!

The flashback

“Let me meet uncle and see you, after that I will take you to see papa and mama.  How dear?”hail Rico with a smile on his face.

“What do you mean?” ask Deandra.

“I want to tie you to the wedding or we can be fiancee first,” said Rico clasping Deandra's hand.

“Me—married?” tanya deandra stammered.

“Iya, we are married.” said Rico excitedly with a serious look.

“Ta—but I'm not married yet,” said Deandra painstakingly refused Rico's invitation. I'm still young, I have a lot of things to do. Why did Rico suddenly get married?

“Why? Don't you love me?”

“Ehmm. I don't want to depend on anyone else. All this time I worked hard to get to college, if I get married now all my hard work will be in vain. I want to get married but not now,” Deandra explained.  Rico finally understood the will of the lover.

Flashback off

...***...

Now, Rico must accept the harsh reality. Her daughter is married to her own sister. “ARGGGG! FUCKIN' SHIT! SHIT!”

His face fell apart and he threw the phone on the floor until it broke due to heightened emotions.  Especially today he saw photos and videos that again viral in social media made him even more angry. Deandra, who looks very beautiful in a white dress, always put on her husband's chest and her hands are coiled in Verrel's stocky arms. Anyone who saw the affection of the couple must be envious. Especially Rico.

“Yes, God. Why could it be like this? Why is it God? Unfairly. God why me? he cried out in despair while crying. “Damn it!” he screamed in his heart.  Elias and Yoga look at Rico with pity, they try to calm Rico down.

“Content yourself. Don't be this Rico, you need to calm down.  It is impossible to think calmly if you are enveloped in anger,” Elias told him.

“He promised to marry me after he worked, but he married someone else instead. That man is my own brother. Why would he betray me.” His shoulders trembled in tears, regretting his painful destiny.

Yoga and Elias calmed the man down, the figure they had known as the strong figure was now helpless. “Rico, don't hate Deandra or accuse her of treason.  Better you investigate first the reason he got married.”

...***...

“Who are you looking for, sir?” said the security guard from the intercom gate of Verrel's residence. Since Deandra stayed at the house, security has been tightened. It's hard to get into that house.

“I want to meet Mr. Verrel,” the answer is short.

“Sorry, Mr. Verrel and Mrs are not in place.”

“Then can you know where sir?” rico asked, are they not back yet?

“Mr and Madam have not returned. The Big Lord postponed his return at the request of the Big Lady who still wants a holiday,” the officer said again. Why are you doing that, baby? Why do you feel at home with that son of a bitch?

Rico sat behind the wheel of his car.  Hit that innocent rudder with his hand. “ARRGGGG.” a motionless object that does not know it must receive Rico's anger.

“Awas you a jerk! You think I can't take mine back?” his anger was growing, but he could not do much. She could not even enter her brother's house due to the tight security and their relationship was unlike that of a sister in general.

Damnit damnit! You jerk! I'll crush you asshole!

He decides to go home and will return to the house until he can meet with deandra. With a chaotic mood full of anger, Rico started the car and went home.  Upon arrival at his parents' luxurious home, his steps stopped with a familiar voice in his ears.

“Rico! Here you. Where have you been, ha?” asked Andini who deliberately waited for his favorite son.  He was curious because it had been a few days Rico disappeared and his phone could not be contacted. Andini crossed her chest and looked at Rico sharply.

“From a friend's house, ma,” the answer is brief.

“It's been two days not coming home?”

“Iya. I'm at home Elias.” said Rico immediately say goodbye leaving his mother who still wants to interrogate his son.

Rico locked the door of his room so no one would disturb him. Sleep, that's what he needs now.  A heavy sigh rang out, he let out a tired sigh because since his return from Hong Kong he had not rested. 

She squeezed his hair and ruffled it.  The lover's shadow became more and more real and pierced his heart like a sharp arrow.

“Why did you betray me, baby? You know I can't live without you. You know what I look like if you do it right?” His tears were dripping, he had never felt pain as he felt now, he had never cried but now a woman made him cry.

“You're mine baby. You got married because you had to, Brother Verrel forced you. I'll take you back, baby.”  Then she looked at the photos of Deandra and Verrel on the sosmed, playing the video of Deandra spoiled and laughing happily. “This is all a lie! It must have been his assistant Verrel, this is video editan.” he said.

He tried to deny the bitter fact that the lover was married and pregnant. Rico shook his head quickly, as if by doing so Deandra's shadow was gone. “This is not my deandra.  The one who married Verrel's sister was not my lover, the girl was similar to deandra.....arrggggg.....Where are you dear?”.

“When I meet you, I'll ask you directly, baby.  If you keep picking that jerk, then I'm gonna take you back, baby. You're just mine.  I will kill whoever separates you from me.”

“I'll kill that jerk, baby. Nothing can separate you from me.” Rico vows.  He'll do anything to take Deandra. 

...**...

“Halo,” Verrel receives incoming calls from bodyguards at his home.

“Sorry, Sir. Mr. Rico has been to the house twice looking for the Big Lady, but I said that Mr. and Mrs have not come home,” said the security officer at his home.  His jaw suddenly hardened, suddenly he felt hot like burning embers. ‘Basic jerk!’

“Tightening care!” verrel's command disconnects the call. 'You won't let me go near my wife, asshole.'

...**...

“About when will our engagement event take place?” ask a woman named Winda.

“How about getting married. They both have grown up and have agreed.” said Andini turned to Rico and Iva who were sitting next to each other.

The two women seemed enthusiastic about discussing their son.  Men listen without much talking.

“We ask our husband's opinion,” said Winda glanced at her husband who immediately agreed.

“It seems like there is no problem. So we can start preparing everything,” said andini enthusiastically as she looked at Iva who looked down shyly and occasionally glanced at the man sitting next to her with an enchanted look.  He has loved Rico for a long time.

‘Finally my idea to match them was accepted as well. After Rico marries the girl, I'll make sure she takes over Baratha's company.  That way my son will be on par with Verrel.  I want him to scream happy, because he succeeded with the matchmaking plan.

"I think for the preparation of the wedding we can discuss again at the next meeting" said Winda.

"How about we have lunch together tomorrow?" ask Andini who can't wait to marry Rico.

"If tomorrow my husband and I have an important meeting. I think the day after tomorrow will be better. My schedule is not there" said Winda again.

"alright. We meet the day after tomorrow."

Just one more step towards victory. Foolish girl turns out to be that easy to get into the Baratha family. A sly grin appeared on his face that was staring at Iva.
