The Untouched Heart

Chapter 213 - Appreciating My Choices

~Hendra~

My job takes up a lot of my time. There is always a meeting, an invitation to eat, an invitation to a celebration, even a meeting with the regional head. I asked Gista to condense all of those events during business hours. I don't want my time for the family to use as well to meet other people. But it wasn't always possible for me to do, sometimes I had to attend an event at night. When I returned home, I found my wife and children dead

I'm lucky to have Za as the wife and mother of my children. I don't have to worry about anything about our house and our kids. I was even grateful that he denied my orders for some things. One of them is about my mom.

Their relationship was still the same, but I appreciated her efforts to approach my mother. I don't know why the affair that Za did hurt her so deeply. I was the one who was betrayed and hurt directly. Then why did Mama hate him that deep?

Maybe I'll feel the same way she would if someone hurt my children. But his happiness is more important than my anger. If my son forgives and returns to his happiness with the person he wants, why should I get revenge?

What made the most sense was his attempt to bring me closer to young single women. Forgive me. I will not leave or divorce Za. She is my wife and will forever be. When did you understand that?

“You know that any form of communication allowed during working hours is one that has to do with work, ‘kan, Gista?” I caught him smiling while typing something on his phone.

“A .. I-iya, Sir.” He immediately stood up and placed the phone on the table. “The file you requested is being printed.” He looked at the printing machine behind him that was sounding a sign that was working on its function. “After completion I will immediately deliver to the room Mr.”

“Free all appointments and any schedules by the end of next month for two weeks. My family and I are going on vacation. Make sure you book our tickets and lodging while there. Any news on VISA?” I'm just impatient.

“Ah, yes, about that. I forwarded the email I received to my father. VISA can already be taken today,” reported while looking at the screen of his phone.

“Wait for what else? Immediately grab and book our travel tickets,” I said give the order.

“Good, Sir. After I drop off the documents to Father's room, I will go,” he said according to. I just shook my head looking at her behavior. His work was not disturbed. He can still do all his work well. But I just don't call or text love with my wife during business hours.

I entered my room, then sat down on one of the sofas. My phone is on the table. The urge to call Za was strong. It had only been a few hours since I arrived at the office, I had already missed hearing her voice. But I managed to hold back. I am no longer a teenager in love. I should have acted like a father of two.

The door of my room was knocked, and before I could let it go, it opened. Zach who had always been disrespectful just because he was my sister-in-law walked in with a serious face. Just because of that expression, I didn't scold her.

“The verdict hearing for Dicky will be held on Friday and the hearing for Vivaldo will start next week. Anything we need to prepare specifically?” ask her while putting a map on the table and sitting across from me.

“No. I hope the judge will give Dicky the maximum sentence. May you also be fortunate in the trial of Vivaldo. Make sure that you have attached all the layered chapters that have been violated. I want him to deal with me. I don't want my wife to get hurt again because of her.” I looked at him seriously.

“Me and Mr. Oscar have traced all the articles on Criminal Penal Penal Penal Code and other supporting Law. We are sleep deprived for your sake, so do not doubt our ability.” He yawns slowly. I laughed to see it. “Official to senewen because I love my job more than him and Zeph.”

“As soon as Nora's verdict trial ends, you and Oscar will give me a long vacation. Is one month enough? No salary cuts and other benefits. I will also provide full accommodation if you want to take your family on vacation,” I said trying to cheer him up.

“I'll make his agreement letter for a while. I don't believe what you say. I trust more in black agreement over white.” He stood up and walked towards the door.

“I wait.” I'm laughing a little.

My family and I live in this city. Of course we will feel proud to be able to build it for the better. Kafin can't get out of the parking lot because he'll have trouble getting permission to enter again. After all they had provided a place for the drivers to sit down and have lunch, waiting until the meeting was over.

“I didn't expect to see you again, Satya,” said a woman from behind me. “Mahendra.” I turned to hear the name and saw a person whose face was familiar but I don't remember ever meeting him where. “It's me. Keva Heily. Have you forgotten?”

“Hai, Ms. Keva,” politely greet me. I looked back in front of me. We're waiting in line to shake hands with the mayor.

“Often called Mahendra, have you forgotten that everyone called you Satya?” he said he was still trying to get me to talk. Ignored him.

I was not surprised when we sat inside a large room with a table that had been filled with food, the woman sat by my side. A man was intending to sit to my left, but he purposely asked her to move. I assume it was not there during the event.

As I thought, he couldn't promise a transparent financial statement regarding the project he proposed to all of us. I do not want to give money just to make his stomach and other employees added distended. I'd better make my own project without carrying the government's name like Mama did.

“Don't look at me like that. I asked you to find out about him not because I was interested in him. I just want to know why he was acting so to me during the meeting,” I said to Gista who was looking at me sharply.

“Father already know it, can I now go back to my table?” ask her with a annoyed tone. I condoned.

Keva Heily. Ah, I deserve it like I've seen it. She was a woman who was obsessed with me when she was betrothed to another man. The woman who spread the rumor that I would do anything to get my wish, even if it belonged to someone else.

Her husband died of a heart attack a few months ago, so she's the one now leading their company. I don't need this drama. If Mama finds out, I'll probably be forced to be close to her. I hope we never see each other again on the next occasion.

Fulfilling my parents' invitation, we went to their house. I almost canceled our plan when I saw how beautiful my wife was. But kissing her until we both had trouble breathing, was enough for now.

I did not expect that the guests who came were so many. If we knew it would be like this, we better not come. Just bother. Moreover, I know how the character of the relatives of Mama. One of my tantic love dies to Papa. He spread untrue rumors that his family still believes are also many people to this day.

Will texted me as I prepared to eat and told me he was ahead. Today she and Gista are going on a date together, so Colin will be here with us. After a moment of farewell to my family, I walked towards the gate.

There are still some guests coming. They smiled at me. I just nodded slowly. Colin immediately jumped out of the car when a security guard opened the door for him. Will lowered the window, then waved his hand at us.

“You've prepared your stomach to eat a lot?” I asked Colin as we walked into the garden.

“Already, Om. But what menu is available?” he asked curiously by moving his tongue to wet his lips.

“There is beef and roasted chicken, as well as your favorite french fries.” I intentionally mentioned that menu only. He immediately pulled my hand speeding up my steps.

When my family appeared in front of us, Colin waved his hand. Hadi. I met my beautiful wife and smiled at her. We should go home after eating. I want to be with him soon.

“Kak Hendra!” I heard someone calling from behind me followed by a quick step of his foot. “Kak Hendra!” I had to look around and suddenly someone hugged me. Die me. The opportunity to make out with my wife after this event could fail miserably.
