This morning, as soon as Ivander arrived at the office, Qeiza immediately followed the man to the CEO's den. Ivander was so excited when he found out that Qeiza was walking behind him. Because it was something that Qeiza always did every day.
Normally, Qeiza would put a tie on her, as soon as Ivander put her briefcase on the table. But, this time, Qeiza handed him an envelope.
“This is my resignation letter, sir,” said Qeiza, before the man asked.
“Qei ..”
“I have also sent about my resignation on the staffing portal. Please check and agree that for the next thirty days, I no longer work here!”
“I will not grant your resignation, Qei. If you refuse me to be your husband, I will try to accept it. I know I don't deserve you. But, please stay by my side, Qei. I can't without you.”
Unwilling to respond to Ivander's plea, Qeiza's leg stepped out of the room. While Ivander, was busy thinking of a way to restrain Qeiza.
However, if Qeiza is unable to get her, should she plead once more, for Evelyn to care more about her? It is possible that when Evelyn begins to change her attitude, her love for the woman, may slowly return. Until he finally forgot about Qeiza.
Ivander rubbed his face rough. Rather than expecting a Qeiza who was clearly resisting, wouldn't it be better to nurture a sense of love towards the wife who had accompanied for a decade?
After almost an hour of thinking about what he would do, Ivander finally decided to mend his relationship with Evelyn further and further. The man asked Qeiza to go to his study. Initially, Qeiza refused, but with a tone made as flat as possible, Ivander managed to make Qeiza believe that what the man was going to talk about was about work.
“Be sure after Monday's meeting, I have no other news for the next week. I'll be on leave for a week. Jobs that require my signature and approval, if you can, you give it to me before Monday.”
“Father want to take block leave leave?” leave
“Iya. Regarding your resignation, I will think about it after my vacation is over. You don't worry.”

Evelyn is overjoyed that Ivander took her on vacation. Two months ago, Evelyn took her husband on vacation. However, due to the mounting work, Ivander did not grant it. Evelyn has not served Ivander's biological needs since.
Paris is the city that Evelyn chose to spend her vacation time with her husband. Evelyn ordered some sexy lingerie sets to pamper her husband there.
Likewise with Qeiza, the one-child widow was busy following up on all the work files that would require Ivander's validation as CEO of Bratajaya Corporation.
“Please be completed soon yes, because Mr. Ivan will take a block leave leave Monday,”, said Qeiza on the CEO secretary team.
Qeiza was also busy looking for flights, preparing visas and passports for Ivander and his wife.
“This is all the necessary files for the flight of Mr. Ivan and his wife, tomorrow the day after,” said Qeiza.
“Thank you, Qei. I'm sorry, because you have to deliver all this to my house. You should have had a holiday today.”
“It's okay Sir. This is my job, ” replied Qeiza.
“You drink what, Qei?”
“Don't bother, Sir. I just go home. In front of me was my mother and son. Ka—”
Not yet had Qeiza finished her speech, Ivander had already rushed to the terrace of her house, meeting Melati and Qiana.
“Mother, let's go in first. Time to sit outside. Let it be made to drink with Mbok.”
“Pak, no need to bother so. We also hurriedly wanted to invite Qiana to play in the playground. It's been a promise with Mba Ivon" explained Qeiza. But Ivander didn't care about the woman's words. Ivander took Qiana in his arms. He took the boy to the family room.
“Upin and Ipin!” exclaiming Qiana. Gegas Ivander turned the cartoon that Qiana had chosen. The man also prepared a glass of warm milk and chocolate biscuits for Qiana.
“I change clothes first, yes, Mom. I'll drop off to meet Ivon.”
Qeiza looks awfully wrong with the current conditions. I want him to leave that house immediately. However, Qeiza felt bad, because Ivander had served drinks and some snacks. In addition, his son is also enjoying the spectacle.
“Qiana still want to watch cartoon, or we go directly to the playground?” ask Ivander who has Qiana in his lap. The little girl, who was about five years old, looked very comfortable in Ivander's lap. The little girl wanted to watch the cartoon in a moment. Ivander granted that wish.
Ah, if Qeiza had accepted her proposal, Ivander would have been very happy if Qiana had been her child. Getting a wife and child, really a complete package.
“Yuk we leave,” invite Ivander, when the cartoon that had been watched by Qiana ended the show.
Qiana yelled cheerfully as Ivander brought the little girl back in his cradle. Qeiza was fixated on seeing Ivander's closeness with her son. Ivander and Qiana are used to greeting each other through video calls, each of whom and Ivander make official trips out of town. This was the first time the middle-aged man had interacted with his son directly, but Qiana seemed to have taken a liking to Ivander.
The little girl seemed to rediscover the affection of a father who suddenly disappeared from his life.
“Qei, you want to continue standing there?!”
Qeiza regained her senses and approached Ivander. The woman asked Qiana to move into her carriage. But Ivander doesn't care about that. Ivander casually passed from before Qeiza.
“Pak, isn't Bu Ev home? I feel bad if you take us. Let me and my family go take a taxi.”
“He's still sleeping, Qei. He just woke up at noon. Let me feel like a father for a little while.I borrow your son, three hours only.”
Inevitably, Qeiza lets Ivander carry her child, and leads them to meet Ivona.
“Mr doesn't return home? What if Bu Ev is looking for a Father. I don't want Bu Ev to be misunderstood by me,” said Qeiza, when she saw Ivander about to enter the playground area.
“I know what time my wife wakes up, Qei. At least I still have an hour to play with Qiana and my two nieces.”
“Pak, I ha—”
“Already, Qei. Just leave Ivan here. Now we go to the salon,” Ivona said. The two women left the playground area, heading to their salon.
“Qei, Mas Ivan is lonely. She actually wanted to have a child" Ivona said, as the two women had just started their body care.
“Yes ... Hopefully after returning from Paris, Bu Ev soon contains,” replied Qeiza.
Ivona gave a small laugh at Qeiza's words. Ivander's sister also explained about the brother-in-law who did not want to have children. Qeiza was wide-eyed to hear it.
Is it because of that, Ivander asked her to be a wife? To be able to have a descendant, after that would dump him?
“Why not adopt a child only, if the body stretch as an excuse not to have children?
Again, Ivona laughed at Qeiza's words. “He doesn't want to take care of anything. Ivan who gives luxury is not taken care of. What about other people's children they'll adopt?”
I don't know what's on Qeiza's mind. The woman did not respond to Ivona's remarks.
“Qei, don't you have any plans to remarry? Qiana seemed to miss the figure of father.”
