Eleven o'clock in the VIP room of a luxury restaurant X.
A woman was sitting quietly in a chair there, waiting for someone very adored. He deliberately came a little early because he wanted to prepare himself to look beautiful in front of the man. He also knew that the man could not tolerate a delay. Not long ago.
A sreeekkk!
The sound of the door sliding indicates that the man waiting for her has arrived. He hurried to stand up to greet the man. But unfortunately the man did not budge and just looked at him coldly.
"I'm not late, but you're faster so don't get me wrong if you wait too long" the man said, looking at his luxury watch.
"I don't mind it, no matter how long I'll keep waiting for you Vero" Olivia replied with a sweet smile. "What do you want to order?" ask again while opening the menu book.
"I didn't come here to have lunch with you, I wanted to talk to you!" said Vero coldly.
"Well, but what is she supposed to be here" Olivia retorted her eyes to Jeff's loyal assistant standing next to Vero.
Vero finally signed with his hand for the assistant to come out of the room. Jeff finally took his leave by lowering his head and immediately went to wait for the Master outside the door of the room.
"So what do you want to talk to me about Vero?" asked Olivia gently while holding Vero's hand on the table.
"I hope you can stop your rude behavior towards Rania" Vero replied sharply as he pulled his hand.
"Huuuh... So your secretary complained to you? What did he say to slander me?" ask Olivia cynically while sneaking.
"Enough! Rania has never complained about anything you've done. So don't you turn the facts around because I've seen everything" Vero said.
"Why are you defending that secretary? Have you been consumed by his temptations?" ask Olivia getting cynical.
"Listen Olivia! I'm not defending him but your actions are already outrageous and out of bounds? What's the matter with him?" ask Vero to hear Olivia's preposterous answer.
"Which action do you think is out of bounds? I just reminded her not to tease you!" olivia who began to be provoked by her emotions.
"Your actions yesterday afternoon, I saw everything through CCTV. You think I'm stupid and don't know what happened? After all what's your problem if she's teasing me?!" vero replied still with his cynical attitude.
"I just reminded him yesterday because he was so brave he wanted to have lunch with you. After all I don't do anything beyond limits. Obviously it's my problem, don't you understand?" olivia said with ease.
Vero grew furious because of Olivia's attitude that felt innocent like that. "That's because there's a Figo holding you back, if there wasn't him you would have crossed your line! I don't understand what your problem is with him, either?" ask Vero again.
"The problem for me is because he's trying to tempt you! You are mine!" olivia shouted while standing up could no longer hold back her anger.
Braaak!
Vero hits the table, causing Olivia to step back a little.
"Listen to Olive, from the past to the present in the slightest I have no taste for you. I've been good to you all this time because of your father!" yell Vero while pointing at Olivia. "Your father has helped me a lot, especially for my mother's recovery. If it wasn't for his kindness, I might never have been close to you" Vero continued in a cold voice and returned to his seat.
Even Olivia, who was shocked, sat back down weakly in her chair. "I can't believe what you're saying" Olivia shook her head as a sign of her denial.
"You lied to me, right? You're saying that because you want me to stay away for the childhood love you're looking for?" asked Olivia still could not believe it.
"No, I'm telling the truth. And just so you know, Rania it was my first love" explained Vero who increasingly made Olivia shocked to say what else.
"So I warned you! Don't ever bother Rania again OR I'll make the career you've built ruined!" said Vero full of emphasis. "good good cam!" he continued standing and went out.
"You okay, sir?" jeff asked when he saw his boss coming out of the room.
"No. Let's go back to the office" Vero said as he continued walking.
I can't lose and get knocked out like this. Just wait, I won't stay still!, her inner being squeezed the menu book in front of her.
...❁ ❁ ❁ ❁ ❁ ❁...
While Rania who does not know the incident is still busy doing her job, in between her work she also took the time to find news about the incident that befell her father. He did it because it was the last message from his mother.
He also began collecting newspapers contained in the STAR Group warehouse, after previously asking permission to the public relations division that has the authority. "It turns out that the event happened during the opening of STAR Land" Rania muttered while reading one of the news in the newspaper.
How shocked he was when he saw one of the newspapers showing the suspect's face.
Dad, interior.
Although in the photo the person wears a mask, but he can recognize the look in the eyes of the father who always missed him. He then brought all the newspapers to be more meticulous when in mess.
"What are you doing?" ask Vero who arrived.
"There is no sir. I was finishing my work" answered Rania while hurriedly closing the newspaper pile with documents on her desk.
"It's lunch time. Let's have lunch outside, I want to change the atmosphere today" said Vero, tapping his finger on the table.
"Okay sir" answered Rania, rushing to put the phone in her bag.
They also walked to the elevator.
"Today I want to eat out with Nia. You also try to find another atmosphere" said Vero when passing by the assistant before entering the elevator.
Jeff could only sigh when he saw the closed elevator door in front of him.
