It is not until two weeks that the prestigious event will be held in the Barrent's Agency company. Giant companies producing talented models around the world. Models that will climb the international scene. Not only models, but every year, the company will also recruit famous designers from all over the world to become fashion designer designers for their new icons.
And at a time like this everyone seemed so busy preparing for the big event. Moreover, the event this time is also to welcome the company's eight-year founding day.
Yes, it is only a lifetime of corn, and at a young age, Kenzo Barrent has pioneered this business to be able to grow so rapidly and become the largest agency in the entire world, where its branches have spread evenly across various continents.
But unfortunately, at a time like this, the company even lost its head. I don't know what will happen, because like, two weeks since Kenzo's departure, a lot of people who want to take down the big company for the sake of a name. And here, Edward's struggle was really tested. Since Kenzo Barrent's departure, he's been really busy taking care of the company, not to mention his other businesses.
The stone man was already like he had no more rest time now, but fortunately, he had such an intelligent brain and great ability that Kenzo entrusted all of his to him.
Not only Edward and the company people are busy, but Alena also looks busy preparing herself to participate in the prestigious event.
It's been two days since she returned, Alena is really focused on her work. Designing, thinking of new ideas that he will develop later, and monitoring the performance of workers who are currently preparing a very beautiful dress for him to show off to the rest of the world later.
"Miss, it's lunchtime" said Lian who had just come from outside. He just bought Alena some food. Her hand placed a food box on Alena's table.
"Just put it there, I'll eat" Alena replied so briefly and flatly. Even he did not look at Lian who seemed to be sighing.
"Well miss, while it's still warm, miss can rest for a while" Lian said again and Alena just nodded flatly.
Lian looks down sad and leaves Alena at her desk. He's back at his cashier's table. Sitting with a long breath.
"Miss Alena has really changed" said Zeira, one of Alena's employees
"Hmm, I miss my cheerful lady so much" said Lian with her head immediately drooping on the table.
Alena has really changed. He's flat and so cold now. There was no more cheerful smile on her beautiful face. It's very different from the Alena. Right now, Alena was just like a human without life and expression. Flat and cold impressed. No more annoying plain sigadis Alena, no more chatty and always cheerful sigadis Alena.
Wounds due to the loss of the lover of the heart make her really can not put herself well. Especially considering if Kenzo's departure is due to help himself.
Despite trying to get up without Kenzo, Alena still can not hold her heart to express as usual.
She works just to fill her time, relaxing a little of her wonderful fantasies about Kenzo. Alena came early in the morning escorted by Reymond, while at night she came home with delivered by Jack who is still faithful to guard her to this day.

The boutique door opened, and it looked like a girl who had not seen Alena for two days. Lian and her three other employees immediately greeted her kindly and so politely. And Clara just smiled thinly at his reply. He immediately walked over to Alena's desk where the girl still looked so busy
"Alena" called Clara who sat in the chair facing Alena. Ever since she broke her emotions two days ago, Clara had only come to see Alena again now.
"Yes" said Alena glanced at Clara at a glance and returned to her work
"You're mad at me?" Asked Clara who was propping up her chin looking at Alena
"No" Alena replied with her headband.
Clara seemed to be sighing heavily. He just kept quiet and watched Lian who was currently serving the customers
Very long, even almost ten minutes Clara was silent, and it made Alena immediately turned her gaze from the table towards Clara. He could see Clara was daydreaming now, and it was always like this, when he saw Clara, his guilt re-emerged. Clara must have lost her sister, too.
"Cla" called Alena made Clara immediately turn to her with a look so lethargic
"Eat with me?" Take Alena who pulled the food box that had just been silenced.
Clara glanced at Alena's hand, she could see the food was cold and no longer looked delicious, or because she was the one who was not tasteful.
"Is that still good?" Clara looked reluctant
"A bad boy should still be eaten. Come on, at least if you eat both of these foods will run out quickly" Alena asked again
He handed the spoon to Clara who immediately took her and looked at Alena who also took out the spoon from the desk drawer.
"I'm sure if I don't come you won't eat it" said Clara, who began picking up a piece of fries from inside the box
"And I'm also sure if you don't come here you won't eat either" said Alena, who also took what Clara took
Clara immediately gave a small laugh while chewing her potatoes, but her eyes were glassy now.
"Don't be pretentious" said Clara, but Alena snorted
"Your body is thin, you can't lie" Alena replied
"Even your body is thinner than I am now" Clara said, making Alena smile thinly but with lips that held Isak in tears
Alena ate back her fries with tears that arrived just dripping but soon removed her. But Clara had already seen him first, even she was also seen rubbing her face violently.
"You asked me to get up and be strong, but you're a crybaby yourself" said Alena, staring at Clara, who was seen back shedding tears.
"Me, i.... Hiks" Clara immediately cupped her face, because really she really can't help her feelings
Alena smiled with tears that were also dripping on her pretty face. He immediately got up from his chair and walked towards Clara. Alena hugged Clara tightly
"I'm sorry" whispered Alena with such a bitter feeling
"You're not wrong" Clara replied.
They hugged each other, had been two weeks more but the wound was growing.
...
A handsome man with his alluring charm walks gallantly accompanied by his secretary and followed by some company staff who will usher in his deputy director room.
All eyes were staring in wonder who the handsome man they had just seen today was. What are their President's business colleagues?
She is Cristian, the husband of Angelina Rosemary. Today after attending an invitation at Reymond's company, he stopped by the Barren'ts Agency. Erick's secretary already made an appointment with Edward.
Cristian is escorted by one of the staff to Edward's room on the top floor.
When the door was opened Edward stood up and greeted him kindly.
"Welcome to Cristian's Barren'ts Agency" Edward said, shaking Cristian's hand
"Thank you Ed" Cristian said
"Let's sit down, sir" invited Edward to sit down on his couch. A beautiful girl who was none other than Edward's secretary entered the room with a tray containing drinks for them. He had been instructed by Edward since then to serve his special guests. The beautiful secretary immediately presented a bottle of wine and three glasses on the table.
"Please sir" said the girl
"Thank you" said Erick
"Like him you want to make us stay here a long time" Cristian said after the OB was out of Edward's room. Only the three of them are there now.
"This is the first time you've set foot in our company. I should have entertained you as best I could" Edward replied as he poured premium quality wine into Cristian and Erick's glasses
"You're right Ed. Years of friends with this new Kenzo I've seen this giant company. Truly elegant and luxurious, in accordance with the character of Kenzo Barrent" said Cristian
"Of course, King Aldrego is never wrong when it comes to voting" Edward replied
"Then can you explain, why can he be wrong in taking steps to make one world a scene?" Ask Cristian anyway
"That's just king knows. I'm just keeping his property until he gets back" Edward replied
"Is there anything serious?" Ask Cristian
"Not really. It's just that this has to be done in order to keep the king's own good name" replied Edward again
"That means he did disappear on purpose, doesn't it?" Ask Cristian again
"Oh sir, for this one I hope so too" said Edward making Cristian immediately frowned
"Hey, why are you talking like that, you should know the most about your master" Cristian said
"I do know this is his plan, but I do not know where he is at the moment" said Edward
"Impossible" murmured Cristian with his cynical smile
"Master, if I knew, I wouldn't let him disappear all this time, the company and all his business couldn't go headless" Edward told Cristian. It is true what Edward said. How could a company of this size go forward if Kenzo as its leader was not in place. It seems like this is not a trivial thing.
"Ed, you know how our story used to be. Even though he's my rival, but right now he's considered my best friend. If you need help, don't hesitate to tell us" Cristian said so seriously
"Sure sir, for now. We're just waiting for King to come back. But someday, if the situation is urgent, I will definitely contact you" replied Edward
"I knew Kenzo wouldn't want to ask us for help. But I trust you, you always have to tell me about Kenzo" Cristian said
"Okay sir, thank you for your concern" Edward said.
Cristian just nodded and drank the wine that had been served to him. But suddenly he remembered something.
"What about my chatty sister, she must be so lost, right?" Cristian asked who suddenly remembered Clara.
Edward was seen sighing for a moment and nodding slowly.
"Yes, even he is no longer as noisy as he used to be. He was more silent at this time" muttered Edward reminiscing about clara
"Can you send her here, I have Angel's seat for her" Cristian said.
"Okay sir" replied Edward who immediately pulled out his cellphone and contacted Clara who was still in Alena's mouth.
