ARROGANT CEO IN LOVE

ARROGANT CEO IN LOVE
Go to Dubai


No one can match Nora's grief after all of those events. Nora stayed in her room more. For almost five days he did not come out even though he was not someone who lasted long alone in a room.


Quickly, the whole event brought about a change. Nora no longer smiles, even when she sees something that often brings out laughter, such as old photos. Everything was nothing to Nora.


The wounds that Nora felt were so deep, that she was not sure that her heart was still intact or had been crushed like a rock that had been crushed into sand. If it is like that, how can it be healed?


Out there, his family is disappointed and pity him. Nora was supposed to be Daren's wife a week ago, but her family swallowed the harsh reality of a failed marriage, the family name became tarnished.


There's something more painful than that, Ravka. Ravka was discharged from the hospital in an almost healthy state. At least, if Nora fails at the marriage and gets pressure from the family, she still has Ravka who can make her happy, but how can he be happy if Ravka does not know him and secretly likes Oki?


Nora lifted the blanket. Feeling the heat radiating in his body when he remembered the first time Ravka saw him after waking up from a coma. It was the peak of pain Nora felt. Unfortunately, the shadow always haunted his brain so he had to be sick many times.


Nora walked to the window. Looking towards the lower floor, where the path of the shiny concrete is exposed to sunlight. Perhaps it would be better if he jumped from the balcony onto the path, then he would feel satisfied.


No, thought Nora. It would be better if he went to a higher building and dove off the seventh floor, it was certain that he would not wake up again because the impact would have been very deadly.


Nora opens the balcony door. Walked out with a blank look. His body had already squeezed and something within him was completely resigned. His feet stepped aimlessly within five meters of the edge of the balcony.


Nora was unconscious, she could not brake her steps. Step by step passed, and he kept stepping with a flat expression. There was not a single bit of passion in life that he felt.


Suddenly the ringing of a cell phone from inside the room disperse the daydream of Nora. The girl was shocked. He had almost set his last move at the end of the balcony had his phone not rang.


Nora turned around and headed inside to see who was calling her. The name written there made Nora's empty heart slightly filled. That name is Isaiah.


Nora was reluctant to answer him because she had no more spirit even just to tell him the bad news if Isaiah asked her news.


The second call sounded. Nora finally raised the call.


"Hello!" greet Isaiah. Her cheerful voice made Nora remember that brownish-haired figure.


"Hello, Nora!" Isaiah cried again. "You there?"


"H-hello," said Nora without a tone.


I heard happy laughter. Nora thought, perhaps Isaiah wanted to ask how his marriage to Daren was, because Nora had not told Isaiah about the failure of the marriage.


"How are you?" asked Isaiah in an excited tone.


Nora took a breath and tried to sound ordinary. "Good."


"I just had lunch. How's yours?"


"I haven't .. lunch."


Sounds of astonishment. "Then eat. Don't make you sick."


Nora looked down inside. For the first time she heard the attention of someone for her over the past week. He was eager to thank Isaiah, but he was afraid that Isaiah would be suspicious if he told him the reason.


"Oh yeah, did you get a new job?"


"Not yet."


"I guess, it's not a big deal to be idle for a while. Oh yes, by the way here there are entertainment companies that are looking for experienced vloggers, you know. When I saw the commercial, I remembered you."


Nora laughed a little. "Oh yeah?"


"Yes, the company is not much different from the company you used to work for."


"I wish I could go to Dubai and work there."


"Why not?"


Nora thought about the offer. Does that mean Isaiah knew about his failed marriage? No, Isaiah doesn't know about his failed marriage, but because he doesn't know that Nora is almost married to Daren.


"I'll think about it" Nora said after a long daydream.


"Don't forget lunch." Isaiah ended the call with a carefree laugh.


Nora put the phone on the table. Then he realized, for the first time after a long time he was smiling, and it was all because of Isaiah. If only the man hadn't called her, she might have dropped downstairs since then. Nora never realized, Isaiah apparently saved her.


During the day Nora thought about Isaiah's offer to work in Dubai. He instead wants to pursue a job if he moves there, but instead pursues Isaiah, the only person who manages to make him smile while Daren is nowhere to be found. Maybe Nora can find Daren's whereabouts with Isaiah if she lives in Dubai.


Nora decides to discuss this with her family, but she remembers since the marriage was annulled, her family never thought she existed. Even Andin only occasionally stared at him with a short smile, never wanting to talk to him like he used to.


There is no point in asking for permission. Whatever Nora wanted to do was no longer their business, as they no longer cared about her. Nora will go to Dubai someday, without talking about her goals to anyone.


***


Nora is really following her heart to move to Dubai. She had already applied for a job online to the Entertainment company Isaiah was referring to. After nearly three days of waiting for an answer, he was finally approved.


Nora had to conduct several interview sessions to become an employee at the company, which meant that she had to go to Dubai in the near future. Nora was glad the company didn't care so much about her case that it spread hate videos about Daren to be considered as the reason she wasn't accepted there.


"Where are you going?" andin asked from the doorway as Nora forced her large suitcase to hold all her belongings.


Nora turned to Andin. His eyes still look uninspired. "Go."


"Where to?" there was a caring tone from Andin's words.


"Dubai." Nora looked completely at Andin. "Please give my last greetings to my father and mother. I'm leaving tonight."


Andin was at a loss for words. He froze in place. There were thousands of words he wanted to say, but his throat was choked.


Andin just nodded slightly, then walked out of Nora's room.


This is what makes Nora's wounds deep. Andin should have given him more attention, such as preventing Nora from leaving or giving her some advice. But her brother was just silent as if he had resigned wherever Nora would go, Andin did not care about her.
