Thorny Love

*Bab 58

"Agggghh."

Riska threw all the stuff nearby. He was really upset when he found out that Zein did not accept him to work in Zia's office.

Feelings of resentment, disappointment, and hatred, enveloped Riska's heart at this time. He was angry, completely enraged by Zein's impartial attitude.

Still heard clearly in Riska's ears at this time, Zein said that he could not accept Riska working in Zia's office.

"Sorry Ris, I can't accept you working in Zia's office."

"Why! Is it because Zia doesn't accept me? That's why you also refused me to be your company's representative."

"Oh, no. Not because of Zia. He had nothing to do with the decision I made."

"Then what? Because who else if not for him? I'm sure that you didn't accept me because Zia disagreed. Isn't it Zein?"

"Riska, how many times have I told you, she has nothing to do with this decision. I don't accept you because papa doesn't want me to put you as our company's representative."

"What-what? Why can't you do that to me?"

"I .. I don't know. Sorry, I have to go back to my apartment."

Riska clasped her hand tightly while looking at herself in the mirror. The memory of Zein's actions to her just now, is now a recording that continues to play in her mind.

"However you lied to me, Zein. I think I still have a place in your heart. Although only a friend, but I am very happy. But in reality, you're evil!" Riska shouted out in a loud voice. He was really disappointed.

After Zein left her apartment, Riska was dissatisfied, she immediately followed Zein to ask him something. Just as Zein was about to step into the elevator, his phone rang. Zein quickly picked up the call.

From that call Riska knew that Zein had lied to her. Because the one who was calling Zein was his papa, and Zein also talked about the placement of Riska also told about Zia.

Knowing all the facts makes Riska's heart very broken. He also returned to his apartment.

"You're evil Zein. So wicked. You easily replace me who has been your childhood best friend with a new woman you knew a while ago. Very well done to me," said Riska while bowing sadly with tears flowing down.

The ringing sound on Riska's phone, made Riska aware of her sadness. He wiped the tears that fell on both cheeks, then took the phone that was on the mattress.

There is the name Laila with capital letters and also monkey emoji.

"What else do you want?" ask Riska to herself before she raises the call.

With a feeling of laziness, Riska swiped the phone screen to pick up the call from Laila.

"Hello." Riska spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Hello. Where the hell are you? Hows it? Did your plan to get into Zia's office work?" asked Laila excitedly.

"No. I didn't make it. I failed."

"Be quiet. Don't talk much anymore. I told you it didn't work, it's a sign I didn't. You don't need much more talk. But, you take it easy, even though I didn't manage to work in Zia's office. I'll make sure the plan we have goes well."

"Are you sure, huh? If you don't work for that company how can we execute the plans we have. You're right," said Laila weakly uninspired.

"You'll see what I can do, even if I don't manage to work in Zia's office."

"As far as you are. I don't want to be dizzy anymore now. I also don't want to be too hopeful because I'm sure, you definitely didn't make it."

"Don't say much. Just look at it later."

The call was cut off. Riska looked back at herself in front of the mirror. The difference is, if he was crying, now he laughs cunningly with a rather creepy face.

"If you have the heart of me, Zein, then I will have more heart. I'll destroy your cooperation. I will also destroy Zia's company more than what Laila had planned before. I will not only steal your company's important files, but I will also steal all the treasures that Zia has. I'll make sure Zia gets ruffled with the pursuit of debt wrapped around," Riska said with a sly smile.

The next day, Riska comes to a company that competes with Zia's company. Although the company is fairly small, but Riska believes that the company wants him to cooperate in the mission to destroy the company Zia.

He came directly to the leadership of the company. Incidentally, the leader of the company was a man. That way, it will be easier to talk to the company's leadership.

"Good morning, what do you need to see me?" ask the company's leaders.

"August, sir. I came here to offer you cooperation with you."

"What company are you from? Where's files? I want to see first."

"Sorry before sir, I'm not from any company. I came to offer cooperation to destroy the company that is competing with the father's company."

"Company competing with my company? Zaza group you mean?" the leader looked rather surprised.

"Yes sir. You're exactly right. Hows it? Are you interested in accepting my offer, sir?"

"You have guts is amazing. No company, but want to destroy a big company. Very, very remarkable. But sorry, I'm not interested in working with you."

"What! You're not interested in my offer?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Why? What reason? Are you afraid of Zia? I mean with the company."

"You don't have a company, so you don't know what my reasons are. I am not afraid of Zia, for Zia is not a bad person. Why should I be afraid?"

"Although Zia is not a bad person, your company is always inferior to Zia's company. Do you not want to get rid of a company that has always been a barrier to the progress and success of your company?"

"I will compete with healthy competition. One thing you should know, unfair competition will bring our company to the brink of collapse. After all, Zia's company isn't a small one that's easy to tear down. Meanwhile, you who don't have a company, won't understand what I'm saying."
