"Reason! Just say you deliberately want to avoid me and want to eat alone, so you can be seduced by flirtatious men and think you're still single? let's not!" accuse Zidan.
"Huh, what are you talking about?" Lisa hit her husband's chest in annoyance. But it doesn't make him sick.
"Who would tease me? No one will want to be with me. You just won't want to be with me! So, why do you think so shallow!" Zidan was silent for a moment hearing Lisa's words.
"Don't say much, let me accompany you to eat." Zidan pulled Lisa's hand, he held her hand and invited her to go from there.
As he exited the room, all the employees eyes were fixed on the two of them and looked at Lisa with a strange look. The employees started whispering to each other and asking questions.
A woman approached the employee who was whispering. He was none other than Zidan's secretary. Feeling very curious about the topic of their conversation so he approached them.
"Miss Grace." that's what she called it.
They were all about to disperse, but Zidan's known secretary, Grace, stopped him.
"Nobody can go back to the desk! Before you tell me, what are you talking about!"exclaim Grace.
"That-nothing, miss. We're not talking about anything."
"You think I'm stupid? what are you guys talking about? just tell me!"
"We're just talking about the woman who was with Mr. Zidan. We were curious, because it was not usual for Mr. Zidan to take a woman to the office.
"What's that, Mr. Zidan's girlfriend?" another employee asked a question.
"Don't talk to you! Where could it be his lover, Mr. Zidan! There is no way Mr. Zidan's lover would be like that. It's obviously open to master Zidan's taste!" objection Grace.
"But, madam. If it wasn't Mr. Zidan's girlfriend, why would Mr. Zidan want to hold the woman's hand?"
"And, even if..."
"It's over!" grace hatch.
"You go back to work and don't talk about this anymore, or else I'll complain to Mr. Zidan!" threat Grace's.
"Don't, miss. We're going back to work." Those who were terrified of Grace ''s threats, they finally broke up and went back to their desks.
Grace walks back to her desk daydreaming and her mind is full of question marks about Lisa's whereabouts there.
"Who exactly is that woman? is it possible that Zidan's client? but why didn't he tell me if that woman was his client?"
"If it's her lover, I make sure it's impossible. Zidan's taste is not a lowly woman and looks like that." murmured Grace.

Zidan took Lisa to eat at a fast food restaurant near his office. They both enjoyed the meal he had ordered 5 minutes ago. No conversation between them, though,
Zidan notices Lisa is busy with her food.
"You still mad at me?" ask Zidan.
"No." replied Lisa who was still focused on her food.
"If you're not angry, why don't you just shut up and not let me talk? why did you shut me up?" ask Zidan.
"Don't you see I'm eating?" exclaim Lisa.
"Oh yeah..." Zidan immediately went back to finish his meal.
Zidan and Lisa are still at the fast food restaurant, they are still reluctant to leave their seats, change positions or move freely due to the glut.
"You're going to meet papa's business partner's son?" ask Lisa.
"Lazy!"
"Zi, you don't let papa down" Lisa said. Zidan was silent, he recalled the threat from his father that made him no other choice to refuse, he should be able to get the cooperation.
"Where?" ask Lisa.
"Meet papa's business partner's son."
"Are you not ashamed to ask me?" the question that Lisa asked, made Zidan again speechless, he noticed his wife who was still dudum before him. There was nothing strange and embarrassing about his wife. In fact, maybe because Zidan was used to seeing his wife's appearance every day.
"Then why?" ask Zidan while grinning.
"Shame on me because I'm not like all of your beautiful and sexy ex-lovers" Lisa replied as she glanced at her.
"Not to talk about ex
ex-lover, let me throw you out of here!" exclaim Zidan. Zidan suddenly stood up, he tidied his suit first. afterwards he also pulled Lisa's hand "let's go..."
Zidan invites Lisa to return to his office. He told his wife to wait for him in the main lobby, while he went to his room to pick up the car keys and files that would be built during his meeting with his father's business partner's son later.
He also did not forget to contact the secretary of his father's business partner's son and make an appointment to meet soon. Earlier at the restaurant, Zidan requested Reyhan's secretary number from his father's personal assistant.
When Zidan was busy preparing his files in the room, he fell into the footsteps of someone approaching him. But Zidan ignored him.
"Zidan.." Someone's hand touched his shoulder Gently. To his surprise, the one who approached him was Grace the secretary.
"What's up?...." Zidan frowned in annoyance, and at once he took the parallel hand away from his shoulder.
"You're so rude!" frangipani. Zidan ignored him and was still busy with his activities.
"Zee... Whose woman was that? why do you look so close to him?" grace asked back, trying to grab Zidan's shoulder, but Zidan avoided her. He faced towards Grace while frowning his forehead.
"I want to ask you, what exactly is your job here?" ask Zidan
"Your secretary" Grace replied
"Smart!"
"I hired you here just to help me take care of my work not my personal business, do you want me to fire!!?" exclaim Zidan.
" hey, why are you so angry? I'm just asking, Zi?"
" I told you, if you call me in the office, sir, don't be as familiar as you are today."
"It doesn't mean you're my friend, so you can just as casually here love and while affirming her index finger to grace.
" Okay, Mr. Zidan!" Grace beucap with a sentence filled with emphasis.
Zidan passed away leaving Grace who was still in her room.the woman was still staring at the Boss and her friend walked away from her sight.
" Since these few months Zidan's been changing, especially since he came home from Paris . I'm really surprised." with a step of annoyance, Grace passed away and left the room and resumed her work.
