The Wife of the King's Pay

Chapter 104 I Am the Director

Seven days after Alvian's death, Alvian's lawyer came to Cleantha's house. He also called to her. Marina and the King to listen to the reading of the will.

The king glanced at Cleantha. Her beautiful parasite still looks pale, a sign that she is still experiencing deep grief.

"Mr Dirga, I don't need to listen to this will. I'm still mourning" Cleantha refused.

"I'm sorry, Mrs Cleantha, I just ran a mandate from Mr. Alvian Adhiyaksa. Two months ago, Mr. Alvian asked me to make a will and read it to him if anything happened to him" the lawyer replied.

"True, Clea, we must listen to the last message from Alvian" she said. Marina sounded lethargic.

The king locked his lips tightly. He did not want to comment on anything that could make the situation worse.

Almero came and sat on Cleantha's lap. The little boy seemed curious to see many adults gathered in his house.

Seeing Almero looking at him with a serious face, the King smiled at his nephew. But Almero did not return the King's smile. He hid himself behind Cleantha's arm.

The lawyer began to read the contents of Alvian's will in a loud voice.

"That I am Alvian Adhiyaksa, consciously and without compulsion bestowed all the property and assets I have on my biological son, Almero Adhiyaksa, and my wife, Cleantha Adhiyaksa. At the same time transfer share ownership of PT. Adhiyaksa Group to my son, Almero Adhiyaksa. And before my son entered adulthood, I appointed my wife, Cleantha Adhiyaksa as my representative in the company of Adhiyaksa Group. Cleantha Adhiyaksa reserves the right to act on my behalf at PT. Adhiyaksa Group in running the company in accordance with the applicable provisions."

Alvian's statement in the will surprised Cleantha. He had not expected Alvian to hand such a huge amount of power over to his hands.

"Sir, is this not wrong? I have to represent my husband in the company?" asked Cleantha gasp.

"Yes, Madam. This is Mr. Alvian's own wish."

While staring at the King who was staying in his seat, the lawyer continued his words.

"Tuan Alvian is the CEO of the Adhiyaksa Group company, and previously served as the director of finance. Because there is a Mr. King who will occupy the position of CEO, then Mrs Cleantha can represent Mr. Alvian as a financial director at PT. Adhiyaksa Group's. What do you think, Lord King?" ask Mr. Dirga suddenly.

Being given such a question, made the King shocked. He is not ready to give a response. But since there was no other choice, he was forced to answer Mr. Dirga's question.

"Yes, I agree. After all, the position of finance director has been vacant since Alvian became CEO" replied the diplomatic King.

Cleantha rejected the offer. He does not want to work just for power. All he wanted was to nurture and educate Almero well.

"Sorry, sir, I cannot accept a position as finance director. But I would come to represent my husband and son whenever there was a board meeting" Cleantha replied.

Hearing Cleantha's refusal, ma'am. Marina immediately pulled the hand of her daughter-in-law.

"Clea, come with Mama to the room for a bit. Mama needs to talk to you," she asked. The marina.

Submissively, Cleantha followed her mother-in-law into the room.

Mrs. Marina closes the door, and invites Cleantha to sit on the edge of the bed.

"What's up, Ma?" ask Cleantha was-was.

"Mama ask to run Alvian's last message. Accept the position of financial director at Adhiyaksa Group. Do this for Almero."

"Sorry, Ma, I can't. I wanted to focus my attention on nurturing and raising Almero," Cleantha replied bluntly.

"Mama will take care of Almero. Do you know why Mama asked you to accept the director's position?"

Cleantha shook her head. He does not understand what his purpose is. Marina forced him to become finance director at the Adhiyaksa Group.

"Not that Mama suspects the King, but Mama just wants to keep watch. Who knows, the King intends to master the Adhiyaksa Group after Alvian. After all we do not know who the woman who will be the next King's wife. It could have been the woman who was greedy and then influenced the King to do the wrong thing."

Mrs. Marina held Cleantha's hand tightly. He could feel the snow-cold palms of his daughter-in-law.

"Please do this for Mama and Almero. Protect the rights of Almero until later he is ready to be heir to the Adhiyaksa Group. Mama also believes if you busy yourself with work, your sense of loss and longing for Alvian can be slightly reduced" said Ny. Marina convinced Cleantha.

Seeing how much the mother-in-law was pinning her hopes on him, Cleantha finally relented.

"Good, Ma. I will try to do my best in the company. Thank you for giving me confidence" Cleantha answered, hugging Ms. The marina.

For Cleantha the moment of her closeness to Ms. Marina will not be forgotten. After years of cold and rigid relationships, at least now they can become closer as a daughter-in-law and mother-in-law.

"Please, ma'am," said Mr. Malik, opening the car door for Cleantha.

"Thank you, sir," Cleantha replied.

Although still a little hesitant, Cleantha stepped out of the car heading towards the main lobby. Today is his first day of being introduced as finance director.

With an elegant all-black blazer suit and skirt, Cleantha stepped up steadily. There was no fear in him anymore.

Skillfully, he felt quite capable of carrying out his duties. Alvian often taught him how to do work as a financial director and CEO. Even when Cleantha was pregnant and bored at home, she often helped Alvian check some reports.

"Good morning, ma'am," said the employees and managers who ran into Cleantha.

Cleantha nodded her head with a smile. Truly they were stunned by Cleantha's new charm and appearance. This woman looks stunning, graceful and mysterious. Much different from Cleantha who used to be a financial staff.

Inside the elevator, Cleantha directly pressed the number nine button.

Shortly, the elevator doors opened. While taking a deep breath, Cleantha opened the door of the director room.

A man in a gray suit greeted his arrival warmly. The man is Ryan, Alvian's former assistant who will now be his personal assistant.

"Good morning and welcome, Miss Cleantha. Let me take you to your workspace. Yesterday this room has been cleaned and rearranged so you feel more comfortable. I also told the OB to put up a picture of Mr. Alvian and Almero," Ryan said, opening the door to the director's office.

"Thank you, Ryan."

Cleantha stepped into the room of her late husband.

The smell of fresh mint fills his sense of smell. That is the aroma of room fragrances that Alvian likes. Cleantha purposely used it so that she felt Alvian was always nearby.

Cleantha gave a glance around the room. All of them reminded him of the memories for the sake of the good memories with Alvian. Where they met at the office for the first time, then when Alvian lectured him at length about work. And the most touching moment when Alvian hugged him and wiped away the droplets of his spilled tears.

Cleantha took a photo of Alvian from her desk. With teary eyes, he looked at the photo.

"Al, I promise I'll do this job well for you and our son,"

cleantha's inner heart.
