Your Spirit from the Water of My Eyes

S2 Chapter 148. So, Who's the Real Wicked One?

Everyone immediately seemed busy thinking about Fathir's words, because what men said was true. Why haven't they thought about it all this time?

"Don't slander me by bringing up the matter, sir," said Rian casually, trying to suppress the emotions that had actually reached the crown. "I am indeed a former assistant to Mr. Fathan, even until now I am still on good terms with him. But that doesn't mean I'm doing the same thing he did. Do you intend to take me down just because I'm your brother's former personal assistant?"

"Of course" Fathir replied quickly. "But are you sure you have nothing to do with it at all?" He asked as if he knew everything.

Rian nodded his head. "I admit that I know all Mr. Fathan has done, and I have also tried to stop him. But whatever I am just an assistant to, I think you all here understand how I was doing."

Everyone is confused about what is happening right now. Until finally one of the board of directors stood from his seat.

"Alright, stop all this debate" he said with emphasis, he is a neutral team that will support anyone who deserves to be a leader. His gaze fell on Fathir. "Previously welcome back I say to you, Mr. Fathir. I'm glad you're back in the company and I'm grateful for that. But, there is also something I would like to say about the appointment of Mr. Rian to replace Mr. Farhan." He paused his words while nodding his head towards Farhan.

"I'm not at all a problem if you go back to the company, because this company belongs to your family. However, you also cannot arbitrarily use power. During this time Mr. Rian has proven his ability and hard work, he is able to solve company problems, and make the company rise again after a bad period of time. What he did was real and worthy of being a leader. So if you go back to the company with the aim of being a leader, then I'll be against it" he said.

Everyone fell silent because they agreed with the man, although it would be a pity not to make Fathir a leader because they also already know how Fathir is capable.

Rian smiled triumphantly at the man's words. Right, they all could not resist the fact about the success he had made. All this time he's been working hard to get their attention, so they can't forget all that.

"What you say is true, Mr. Tomi," said the other board of directors. "I agree with your words just now. But if you are talking about hard work and ability, then Mr. Fathir is not inferior to that either. It is true that he made a mistake, but all of that had a reason and he left the company too for fear of making things worse. So in my opinion, the actions of Mr. Fathir are correct, and I support if he rises to become a successor to Mr. Farhan. Shouldn't it be like that?"

Finally there was a split between those who did have their own opinions about Rian and Fathir. Moreover, the supporters of Rian who want to keep the man up.

"What would another employee say if Mr. Fathir had directly replaced Mr. Farhan, while he had just returned to the company? Do you think all that is fair to Mr Rian who has been devoted to this company?" the words of Rian's supporters made Rian's smile wider.

Fathir smiled cynically when he heard how much support they had given to Rian, without knowing if it had been the man who had been the mastermind of Fathan's crimes.

Fathir quickly opened his briefcase and took out a few pieces of paper from it. "You will definitely change your mind when you see this." He immediately threw the sheet of paper onto the table, right in front of everyone.

Deg.

Rian's heart felt like it had been pierced by an enormous spear upon seeing the paper given by Fathir. How not, the paper clearly shows a report about the flow of funds into his account, and the funds came from the embezzlement that Fathan did a few years ago. However, they do it as if it were Fathir's.

Not only that, even in the paper also written the exit transaction that Rian sent to the people who had launched his action, and their names were even written clearly there.

"W-how did he get all that?" Rian's body trembled upon seeing it.

Fathir and Keanu smiled satisfiedly at Rian's pale face. The man certainly did not expect if they could get a report of his bank account transactions, let alone the transaction that had occurred several years ago.

"You don't know who I am yet, Rian. Maybe Fathir can't do all this, but not with me." Keanu smiled cynically. He felt regretful for being late to investigate about all this, even to the point of having to spend several years.

"No, none of that is true. I have never dealt with them" Rian argued. He had to quickly twist his brain to escape this problem.

"Without me even explaining, you already know what the paper is, right?" fathir said sharply. "Didn't the transaction explain if this dog*an is also related to Fathan's actions?" Saying back.

Everyone looked at Rian furiously. They are not bod*oh people who can not distinguish between false transaction reports and genuine ones, but in fact they have been fooled by the man.

"No. That, it's just-"

"What's all, Rian? Do you want to say that my brother made that transaction?" Cut Fathir fast. "And all of you need to know that the account is not an account registered in the company, but a special account provided by him to commit crimes."

"No! That's not true" Rian argued back. "I have absolutely nothing to do with the crime." He was eager to tear those papers apart right now.

"Then what's this transaction, Rian?" asked Farhan with sarcasm.

Rian remained silent. Unfortunately, his brain was completely unable to think of a moment like this, until finally Fathir returned to give them some papers.

"If it's still lacking, then look at this," exclaimed Fathir as he returned to give something to everyone. This time he showed a transaction that Rian made with Nico, written clearly nominal money with a large amount there, and came from the same account. "How, are you also going to dispute your transaction and Nico this time?"

Both of Rian's eyes flushed with burning emotions. He was completely shaken by what Fathir was doing. "You, where did you get that transaction?" He asked sharply and hatefully.

There was no longer the hospitality and courtesy that Rian had always shown to people, because now he was really very angry.

"Why did you admit it?" asked Fathir in a tone of ridicule. "I didn't think you were a junkie, Rian. Even my brother who is arrogant*an is clean from illegal drugs."

Everyone was really disappointed when they found out about the truth, even the people who supported Rian felt regret for believing in the man's words.

"No. Please believe me, I never did any of that. All this time I devoted myself to the company and never-"

"Enough!" Cut Farhan with a dead red face, making Rian's speech stop. "Get out of this room right now or I'll drag you by force."
