"China !!!" andares exclaimed from the direction of the door.
Andares looked at Celina with a sharp and intimidating look. While the investors who were with them were only speechless at the scene that made it a little awkward. It's beyond a doubt. And don't forget Aksa who was just silent glued.
"Sir Andares, since when are you here?" ask Celina in surprise.
"What the fuck are you, fighting like a child. You forgot this is still in the office?" Andares shouted at Celina in front of everyone in the room.
"Sorry sir, but they.." Celina's voice choked because Andares was hinting at Celina to be quiet.
"Enough! I don't want to hear anything else, I've seen it myself. I'm disappointed in you, Miss Celina" Andares said, rushing out of the lobby with the investor.
The three female employees who had collided with Celina had already fled somewhere and when. Only Celina and Aksa were left standing by the entrance.
Celina crying. What's wrong with her today, really makes Celina not think out. Is he the wrong one? Does he deserve to be treated like this? The thought kept haunting his head. Even his boss went along to judge him without knowing why. The boss he followed all his orders.
Unnoticed by Celina, Aksa was already standing beside her. Trying to get close to Celina but being abandoned by Celina. He did not want to see Aksa for now, especially after his girlfriend did that to him and he just kept quiet. Aksa just covered her face with both hands while shouting loudly. Frustrating fashion on.

In her room, Andares waited for Celina after calling her on her phone. Fortunately, his business with the investor could be resolved well without being affected by the incident that occurred in the previous lobby.
A few minutes later, the sound of the door being knocked. Celina entered after getting permission from the owner of the room.
"Please sit!"
Celina said without saying anything. He sat down without daring to look into the eyes of Andares. Celina already imagined the worst thing that would happen, she would be expelled from this office.
"Celina, what's with your current performance? Yesterday I heard you had a problem with investors, and I still give you a chance to show your performance by meeting investors alone. But what was it?" Andares poked Celina with consecutive questions.
"Sir, may I speak now?" celina asked, because she had not been given a chance to defend herself.
"I'm not doing anything bad with investors. And about the lobby, I was wrong, fighting in the office. But I have no regrets, because they deserve that" Celina replied.
Andares said nothing after Celina defended herself. He then pulled out a brown envelope with the company logo on it. Celina knew it was an official envelope, meaning inside it was something important, no matter what.
Andares thrust the brown envelope towards Celina. And when Celina opened and saw the contents of the envelope, Celina looked limp. The envelope he had originally held, was now lying on the table.
"Boyou kicked me out?" ask Celina lethargic.
"What do you mean 'drive'? Isn't that what you wrote on your resume?" answer Andares casually.
"But not in this way, sir. It's the same as I was deliberately kicked out of here" Celina said.
"So you refused it?"
Celina was speechless, she was confused as to how. Suddenly, he moved to Seoul, Korea. Pleased? It should be, but in fact Celina actually felt an injustice at that time.
"You moved to Seoul and I'll forget everything. Or do you want to accept my offer yesterday?" ask Andares.
Celina is still silent. He didn't know what choice he had to make. Working in Seoul is one of his dreams. He hoped to get that chance even if it was only once in his life. But this choice was completely absent in Celina's shadow. Because in the letter given Andares, it is written that Celina must work in the Seoul office until an unspecified deadline. That meant there were only two possibilities, he could not return for a long time, or he would only be briefly evacuated and then be repatriated. Very unpromising.
On the other hand, the other option is to marry Andares. This option is just as bad as the first option. How can she marry someone she does not know, without any feelings, and will only be hidden by her husband later.
Amidst her impasse of thinking, Celina's phone suddenly rang. He immediately raised a call that came from none other than his sister Melani.
After hearing what her sister said, Celina's hand fell limp until her phone also fell. His face suddenly turned pale. His breathing began to drift.
Seeing Celina with such a face, Andares started to worry. He asked the girl if she was okay. Celina did not answer. He simply fell silent and bowed by dropping a grain of clear water from his eyes.
Moments later, he finally looked up and said his decision.
"Okay sir, I accept this offer, I'm willing to marry you."

"Fuck that Celina, why did she mention Aksa's name" Ellen grumbled in the toilet.
"So really, are you dating Aksa? That fucking Celina guy?" ask Stefani.
"Yes" answered Ellen in short.
"Lo crazy Len? Why you are dating Aksa" said Denisa, one of the other gang members.
"Diem lo all! It's my business" snapped Ellen as she left the two of them in the toilet.
Just as Ellen came out of the toilet door, Aksa had already stopped and pulled her hand. Ellen was surprised but let Aksa keep pulling her somewhere.
"Aw, sick Aksa!" lamented Ellen, her hands were reddened by Aksa's large hand grip.
"What do you want, Len? Huh uh? Why are you doing such a stupid thing in the office?" aksa said.
Plakk
Aksa slapped Ellen very hard, even Denisa and Stefani who were still in the toilet came out because they heard the sound of the slap.
"YES!!!" Ellen screamed as loud as she could. He was no longer surprised but angry. How not, a girl who is like a princess like Ellen, slapped by a man, especially the man is his own girlfriend. Between anger and feeling humiliated.
"What are you doing? Why did you slap me?” yell Ellen again.
"Because you've gone too far. I became your girlfriend not for this kind of thing" Aksa replied firmly.
"You know what fucking Celina is? You like her?" cycar Ellen is upset that her boyfriend is defending Celina.
"It's not about like it or not. You've gone too far to say Celina sold herself and a prostitute. You're aware?"
"If you continue like this, I will rethink our engagement plans" concluded Aksa and left Ellen still holding her cheek that 'touched' Aksa.
"Look at you, Cel! I'll make the same calculation of you" Ellen's mind

"What?? Korea?"
Farah was surprised to hear her best friend say that ridiculous thing.
"Why were you suddenly told to move to Seoul, Cel? If this is punishment, the three of them should accept the punishment" Farah said.
"No idea, Far. I should have been sad, but somehow I was sad. He said, I was lucky not to be fired, I was lucky to be able to go to Korea without having to be tired nabung” Celina said. There was still sadness in the intonation of his voice.
"Well, when do you leave?" ask Farah.
"Lusa" he answered briefly.
"Crazy, the eviction is lightning" murmured Farah softly.
Celina had to lie to her best friend. Andares asked him to tell everyone in the office that he was transferred to Seoul. He also could not have said that he would marry his own boss for no apparent reason.
After finishing her conversation with Farah, Celina stayed silent in a lounge on the roof of the building. He reflects on his fate.
Celina is forced to accept the marriage offer, because her brother's life is in danger. The call she received earlier, was a call from someone at the hospital who told her that Melani had been in an accident, and she had to be operated on immediately.
The problem is, the big operation that must be done by her brother, requires a lot of costs. He had to make eight hundred million dollars for all the surgery, hospital, and compensation costs on the person who collided with his brother.
Celina was crying in that place. He cursed his fate that never felt happiness in his life.
There was a pause of a few minutes until finally the sound of the roof door opened and disperse the silence around Celina. Aksa was already standing in front of the door and immediately moved closer to Celina. While Celina just let out a long sigh.
"Cel, I'll talk to you."
Celina just tried to ignore Aksa's words by moving to avoid Aksa.
"Cel!”
Celina still ignored him without answering a word.
"CHINA!!" yell Aksa.
This time Celina stopped her movements and turned to look at Aksa.
"It's been a long time. Since we talked together like this. At that time I was very happy to have a friend like you, Sa.." Celina stopped her speech and moved back as Aksa stepped closer to her.
"Cel, please.dengerin me first" Aksa looked at him with a gentle gaze.
"..since then I started to depend on you. Even when I'm dating Dion's son of a bitch, I still depend on you." continued Celina.
"..but since you've been dating that damn Ellen, I've felt like I lost you, Sa.." Celina's voice suddenly choked as if hesitant to continue the next sentence.
"I wish I'd never said this, but I can't keep kayaking gini.”
Now Celina approached Aksa to stand up, not too close but enough to make Aksa can see the look on Celina's face that began to cry.
"We just stop, Sa" said Celina.
“What do you mean?” ask Aksa.
“We just stop our friendship!” Celina.
“.. I will go to Korea.”
