The Secretary of the CEO

PROLOGUES

Money and happiness are two things that cannot be separated from human life.

With the money. Humans can meet their needs. Where, money as a legal medium of exchange, replacing the barter or exchange system of goods. With money, we can buy our daily necessities. Money can also be misused, for example buying power, or bringing down fellow humans. Sometimes, because human money can darken the eyes.

However, money is of no use, if man is unhappy. As the saying goes.

Money buys pleasure, but it is impossible to buy happiness.

However, what happens if there are people who work desperately looking for money, just for a happiness? Will he be happy forever? Or, will he only get temporary happiness?

That was what the student, named Yuri, experienced. He is willing to go to college while working, just want to get a mere happiness. He was busy in his own world, until finally, loved ones left him for ever. Money is no longer useful to him. His heart was empty, without the affection of a mother. He must also seek another happiness, not just a happiness and pleasure, in the form of matter. To fulfill his voidness, and his current sadness.

But how? It will be hard to find absolute happiness. Moreover, to fill the void his heart that was slowly starting to freeze.

*****

Yury Anastasia. The name attached to the beautiful nailed alma mater of a student, majoring in Engineering at a Private University, located in a beautiful small town, named Amlapura.

Yuri, that's how friends call him.

She is a beautiful, cheerful, very friendly and smiling girl. However, since his mother died. His attitude changed by one hundred and eighty degrees. She is a quiet, cold girl and likes to shut herself down. In fact, she also made herself like a kara girl, even though she still has a family. Yuri is always patient. Now, he can ride black because of trivial problems. He also often locked himself in his room.

***

On a clear morning. Motorcycles and cars lined up neatly in the parking lot. The atmosphere of the campus is quiet and quiet, making a creepy impression. Perhaps, because today, some study programs prefer to take afternoon lecture hours. Yuri walked leisurely from the parking lot to her class. Her disheveled hair, wearing minus glasses, but unable to cover her puffy eyes. His face was flat with a blank look, it was like there was no hope of life anymore. It had been a few days, he had been to the campus with a pitiful face like this.

Arriving in front of the class, he opened the door knob slowly. All the friends who were in the class, spontaneously turned their heads towards him. Then, they continued their activities. No one asked him. Because it is useless to ask. Yuri would definitely silence a thousand languages, ignoring all questions from them.

Yuri is very happy to design, both animation and graphic design. He is also good at drawing. Therefore, he has in recent months, trying to pursue the world of design. And, secretly he made a design design, which he planned to sell to a famous company, without the knowledge of his family.

After finishing college, Yuri went home. When he got home, he went straight to his room. No greetings or pleasantries were thrown by Yuri to his father, nor his sister. In her room, Yuri immediately took the laptop from the table, then dropped her body on the mattress. He opened the laptop, then, deftly sliding his hand across the mouse in search of his own design files. Fifteen percent more, the plan will be completed soon. He kept on moving in front of the laptop. Every now and then, he wipes away his tears that come out slowly. Now came the warm smile of the mother, which made her cry again sobbing.

****

A few days passed. Finally, his design was completed. Due to the holiday, he immediately rushed off to the Capital City. He tried to sell his own designs. He will sell his design, one of the biggest and most famous companies in the capital. Destiny Group, is a company that is engaged in property and also online games.

If he manages to sell his design, the money from selling his design, he will save for his future which he has not thought about at all. Who knows, in the future he is having trouble. And that money will save him. Yuri also has savings, which she has collected since the first semester of college.

It takes an hour to travel, to take the capital. In order to sell the work he made for months, he was willing to take a long journey, using public transportation. Before leaving, he had already said goodbye to his father. And, reminding the father, not to tell his brother who lives in the Capital. Even so, she is still a good girl who is devoted to her parents.

Before selling his design, Yuri must present his work first. The entire staff of important employees, already in one room with him. Perhaps, it was Yuri's unlucky day. Without realizing it, he met his brother in the same company. Yuri's older sister is named Kiran. She is beautiful, has long hair, and is 5 years older than her.

"Say she's off today, why is she here now?" Yuri Gerrutu, by putting on his sour face.

"Yuri? Oh, so this is what made you call me yesterday, because this kid my day off has been postponed."

With a shocked facial expression, Kiran looked at her sister. It turned out that his sister was an important guest, who would sell the design designs to the company. Yuri ignored her brother's whereabouts, who might have been watching him in the back.

Before the CEO of the company was present, he was tinkering with a laptop that was already available. He also did not stop memorizing every detail of the contents of the power point, which he made last night. After a long wait, a man opened the door of the room. He was dressed like an office child in general. The man was very handsome, dignified, and his posture was quite high. He is the CEO of the company. It could be seen from his arrival, which was greeted with respect by the staff of the employees in the room. They bowed their bodies in front of the man simultaneously.

As for Yuri, he could only shut up and turn his gaze, onto the monitor screen. In fact, Yuri was no less surprised by the man. The man who was now, facing Yuri was a figure he knew. But he hated that man. Not without reason, that guy is a bitch. Until this moment, he still did not believe that it turned out that the man was the CEO of Destiny Group. Young master Alex, that's how his employees and men called the man.

“Aarrgh just met my brother has made me uncomfortable. Why add one more person? Looks like today is my unlucky day.” Yuri Gerrutu in heart.

Cold sweat kept coming out of his hands, his heart pounding very hard. After the presentation, the entire staff, as well as her brother smiled and clapped their hands. Makes Yuri feel a little relieved. But the CEO did not budge, he continued to look at Yuri, with a very sharp gaze. After a few minutes of silence, Alex finally spoke up.

“Try explaining. Why should this company buy your design?”

The words thrown by Alex, immediately made all employees who followed the meeting, silent and bow their heads. Instantly, the room went back to silence. In fact, Kiran was surprised and confused by the words uttered by Alex, until without him noticing, Kiran glared at Alex.

"Yuri looks like you picked the wrong company to sell your design." Brother Yuri said inwardly.

Seeing Kiran glaring at Alex, the employee next to Kiran sat down, directly nudging Kiran's body with his elbow. Kiran noticed the gesture of her co-worker, immediately lowering her head, like the rest of the staff. In contrast to Yuri, who was staring at Alex with a look of wonder.

“Hah, should ya I answer your useless question?" Yuri looked confused. The question Alex asked him was much different than he expected. As a result, Yuri only answered what she was thinking.

“I think it's up to the master. Obviously, I made this plan as best I could. The decision is in the hands of the master now!”

Yuri's words, made the other employees surprised. Yuri did not know, that in front of him was the CEO of the famous and largest company in the Capital. Of course, whatever he will do for the progress of this company. In fact, he did not hesitate to order his bodyguards, to drag people who did not work properly, out of this company. The employees were no less surprised, because they heard Alex's words.

“Alright then, I like your plans. Your presentation is also very good. I really like it.”

Alex looked at Yuri with his warm smile. However, according to Yuri, Alex's smile had a myriad of terrible meanings. Yuri looked annoyed and frightened and then with lightning fast, she removed the fear from her mind.

“Good. I bought your plans, Yuri Anastasia.”

The words that Yuri had been waiting for earlier. It was different from Alex's expectations. Apparently, Yuri did not look happy, not even a smile. There was only a flat expression shown by Yuri.

All the staff members in the room clapped their hands once more and congratulated them. Although, they look surprised by Alex's words, as well as Kiran. Kiran did not even think that the resolute and authoritative CEO was being so kind to Yuri.

“Congratulations on your achievements this time Yuri. I am very happy and also satisfied with your work.”

"Thank you for accepting my design, sir."

Alex also gives a cheque, which is the nominal money given by the company to Yuri, while shaking Yuri's hand. Yuri returned the smile with pleasure. Soon after, Yuri said goodbye and left the room, carrying a piece of cheque paper given by Alex.

Now, Alex seems happy, and still does not believe that the girl in front of him is Yuri, his future girlfriend. Just imagine, it makes him happy. So happy, he did not care about other employees who were chatting with other employees.

"Young master, is there anything else the young master will say after this meeting?" ask one of the staff.

"Ehem.emm no, you guys please come out and continue your work."

"Alright, Sir. Good afternoon, young master." said one of the employees, followed by the other employees. One by one the staff members left the meeting room.

"I like the performance in delivering a pretty good presentation. He's a good fit if I make him my personal secretary. Hhhm .. interesting as well." Inner Alex
