"The papa company has won this project from many competitors who offer it to Mr Ardi right? why now Mr. Ardi wants to cancel it just because of petty business like this?" Marcell. He tried to suppress his emotions so as not to make everything more runnyam. He still wants to save this partnership.
"The happiness of Arimbi is not a trivial affair son Marcell"
"And Mr Ardi dare to risk the father's professionalism as a famous businessman and the leader of the largest company because of the love affairs of teenage monkeys which according to one party is not over?" Marcell asked with an incredulous smile.
"I said at the beginning, anything I would do to meet my son's request" said Mr. Ardi.
"I did not expect Mr. Ardi who is famous for being smart, classy and cold-handed in the business world would mix personal affairs with business affairs. Especially just about the romance of teenagers" Marcell smiled disdainfully.
"Whatever great I am in the business world I remain a father who wants to give happiness to his son"
"But not at the expense of the happiness of others sir. My wife cannot be exchanged for anything Mr. Ardi, the project of hundreds of trillions is nothing compared to my wife. Asking a husband to betray his wife is such a low and cheap attitude, so incompatible with the image you have so far. I think breaking up cooperation with unprofessional people is not at all a loss. Because in this life not only have to consider the matter of profit and loss in material terms. Excuse me" Marcell said, there is no doubt about rejecting the man's foul offer. Marcell stood up and stepped out leaving Mr. Ardi who looked stiff.
"You will regret Marcell" said the man coldly.
"Like Mr. Ardi who is willing to do anything for the happiness of his father, so am I. Will sacrifice anything to keep my beloved wife including this project, Mr. Ardi rest easy to death I will never regret this decision" Marcell walked quickly away from the room. His chest was hot, he was afraid he could not hold back longer and ended up doing something bad to Mr. Ardi.
"We're getting out of here Mr. Anton" Marcell told his papa assistant.
"His cooperation contract has not been signed Mr. Marcell" Anton showed the map in his hand.
"The cooperation is canceled. Mr. Anton just go back to the office, if you ask me later I will explain. I want to go home first" Although confused Anton followed the steps of the son of his boss was leaving the restaurant where the meeting with Mr. Ardi.
Marcell entered his car, his face still looking tense and stifling with anger.
"Go home sir" Marcell told the driver. He wanted to immediately go home and hug Loli to dampen the chaotic feeling in his heart.
Mr. Ardi's words made him so furious. The man could have underestimated himself by offering an advantage to hurt his wife. His pride seemed to want to be bought with money. Marcell really felt harassed.
Marcell got out of the car impatiently upon arrival at home. He took a quick step to immediately let go of all the restlessness of his heart.
"Honey.." called Marcell when he saw Loli who was laying in bed while reading a novel, he seemed surprised by the return of her husband.
"Darling to go home?" Loli wrapped her arms around Marcell's body as the man hugged her tightly. A glimpse of Marcell's disheveled face and how Marcell hugged and kissed her was enough to make Loli understand something was disturbing her husband's feelings. Loli did not ask any more, he gently rubbed Marcell's back.
After quite a while in that position, Marcell let go of his embrace and cupped Loli's face. He stared into the shady face of his wife. His indignation slowly floated, the tightness in his chest lifted just by staring at the clear eyes of his little wife.
Marcell felt so calm, he smiled proudly. Until anytime no one will be able to change Loli's position in his life. He knew he could never lose Loli.
"I love you, I love you so much" whispered Marcell soulfully.
"You really love me?" Marcell asked with a happy glint that emanated clearly.
"L-yes I love you" Loli nodded surely. Marcell seemed speechless again, being loved by the woman he loved was his greatest happiness at this moment. He hugged his wife back tightly.
"Why you?" Loli ventured to ask when Marcell felt calm.
Marcell let go of his embrace. He changed his leaning position on the bed, and Loli he led to lean on his chest.
"Sir Ardi Arimbi's father" said Marcell.
Loli raised her body staring at Marcell.
"Then?"
"He asked me to go back to Arimbi if the cooperation still wants to continue. If I refuse then the cooperation is canceled" Marcell rubbed his wife's cheeks that looked so shocked, her face paled.
"You accepted the offer?" Loli asked with a trembling voice, her eyes already glazed over. Fear filled his feelings. He was afraid that the newly blooming love would be forced to wither.
"Of course I turned it down, honey, do you think I'd trade my wife and son for that damn project? marcell's wife is worth more than anything. Where might I be willing to let go just for a cooperation project" Loli sighed in relief, but her tears unruffled out, her unrest changing.
"But isn't the project important? papa's going to lose"
"Working with those who are inhumane is far more detrimental dear. We can get a cooperation project with another company that is much more moral" Marcell wiped his wife's tears.
"But Ardi can influence other companies to not cooperate with papa companies"
"Our company even though not as big as the company of Mr. Ardi is also not a small company that will easily fall. Many companies that work together are satisfied with the performance of our company dear. Take it easy they won't be affected" Loli nodded in understanding.
"Papa uda knows? papa's not angry with you?"
"Papa doesn't know, Maybe at first will be angry, but after hearing my explanation papa must understand. Trust me as much as I am for his son-in-law is worth more than that cooperation." Loli although still very young but so sensitive. Marcell knew his wife's feelings were so subtle. He was really lucky to have Loli even though their story had to start with a tragedy that was so painful.
Marcell pressed his arms against his wife.
