Bed With In-laws
A painful meeting

Zea's activities are proceeding as usual. Come to the office by taking a public bus, work on preparing the studio for shooting sessions, and much more. He seemed to be quite busy after getting a deal with Darion two days ago.

Zea had just exited the studio on the fifth floor and was about to go to her study on the third floor using an elevator. However as he was walking, someone suddenly pulled his hand firmly and led him into the area of the emergency staircase.

Not just get there. He even pushed Zea's body against the wall.

“You fucking woman!” it means no matter where he is now.

“Ju-Julian?” Zea stared in disbelief, as she faced the man who had been her husband for almost two years. A man she had never met again.

But, what makes it NNC?

“Damn you! I've helped you pay off debts, even given you monthly money. But why did you stab me?” meaning with a slightly suppressed voice for fear of sounding someone else.

“A-what does it mean?” Zea answered nervously. There was a feeling of fear at the time, fearing that his relationship with Darion would be exposed by Julian.

“You evasive? I know, fucking lady!”

DEGH

Both of Zea's hands trembled violently. He did not expect that Julian would know all the things that were happening between him and also Darion. If this were the case, would Julian not divorce himself?

Julian is not finished talking.

“You who can't live without money, must have leaked our contract right? You're afraid that after we get divorced, you'll no longer have the resources!” charge Julian with origin without any evidence.

“Or, you purposely searched for my father and made him pressure me so we couldn't get a divorce?”

It's ridiculous!

That was what Zea thought when she heard every accusation Julian made. Zea wanted to shut up and shut her mouth tightly, then left the man. But Julian's accusation became more so, making his patience disappear within seconds.

“Listen!” Zea began to dare to defend herself. Well, maybe because his ears are getting uncomfortable hearing the husband nagging and accusing him without proof.

“First, I never leaked anything about the contract. Second, the reason I met Mr. Darion, was purely about business. You can find Mike and ask him!” firmly Zea.

“Dan third. You seem to forget something, Mr. Julian,” continued Zea a little mocking, he even had time to raise one corner of his lips for a moment.

“There is no parent meeting between us. Me, how do you know your father's face?”

Short, simple, and already covers all the core of the conversation without covering up reality. That's what Zea said to Julian.

Yet the man was still so persistent in believing his premonition. He did not even care about the reason Zea said and still invited her to argue.

Sickened?

For sure. Zea chose to go and avoid. But before he could leave, Julian again pulled his arm.

Attraction also happens. Zea, who no longer wanted to talk to Julian, tried her hardest to let go of Julian's hand. In the end, his hand escaped from Julian's grip.

Luckily, Zea was still able to hold on to the edge of the stairs, so she did not fall down. However, his hand became scuffed due to friction with the iron barrier.

The other luck he got was the moment where the sound of footsteps could be heard. That's what made Julian leave Zea.

What exactly happened until Julian found out that Darion already knew his contract marriage?

When Zea returned to her desk, some of her colleagues were gossiping. Even one of his colleagues immediately invited his team leader to discuss something.

“Team Chief,” call one of Zea's colleagues.

“Ya?”

“For these few days, didn't you go to Nesh to discuss the interview?” ask him again to try the pleasantries.

Zea just nodded at that moment. But behind that, there is clearly a curiosity that is tucked into the reason they discuss about Nesh.

“Wah, don't tell me if you discussed it with Darion Walter directly?” sahut Vivian, who is also Zea's co-worker.

“Of course.” Zea nodded back. “He's our VIP guest, so have to speak directly. Business people are not like artists who can easily according to.”

“Ya, you are right.”

“So, do you know about the child from Darion?”

DEGH

The discussion about Julian instantly made Zea's face paled. Not only that, his hands even looked trembling, but Zea quickly hid both of his hands into a suit pocket.

“A-child?”

“That, Julian Walter. Don't you know the gossip?”

Again, Zea had to be made to worry about a lot of things. One of them is the news about his marriage to Julian. What if his partner finds out?

Vivian gives a phone that contains rumors about Julian. After Zea read it, she slightly breathed a sigh of relief. Right, it was news at the inauguration of Nesh's new office last night.

The news shows Julian coming with another woman who is not his wife. Julian of course dismissed with a lot of excuses when interviewed. But a reporter unmasked, if the woman Julian was carrying at the time was not married.

From the news of Julian's sudden and secret marriage, not a single journalist asked about the identity of Julian Walter's wife. That was the reason that made Zea breathe a sigh of relief. At least, the treasure has not leaked yet.

From Darionkah?

That's just possible. Who could do that but that guy?
