Benalu In My House
NINETY FOUR

Today was the last meeting that Jervario and the team had with Mr Malik's side. This meeting was filled with a number of agendas, ranging from the reading of cooperation agreements to the signing of cooperation contracts between the two parties.

The meeting was as usual during the day after lunch. Later that night, Longlife Investment led by Mr. Malik Assegaf invited TJ Group to dinner together as an expression of happiness over the establishment of cooperation between two companies between the countries. Gathan as the leader of TJ Group also welcomed the invitation because it was often done as a form of appreciation for the cooperation between two companies or individuals.

The agreement has been reached, the draft cooperation has been approved by both parties is also signed. They also confirmed the cooperation by shaking hands with each other and a photographer enshrined it for documentation. After that, they said goodbye to each other to return to the hotel where they stayed because they signed a cooperation agreement at Longlife Investment building.

"Darling, how was the meeting today?" ask Mentari by phone.

"Alhamdulillah, all is well. Our proposal was well received" Jervario said.

"Thank God."

"How about our baby twins? They don't make trouble anymore, do they?"

"No, bang. Eh bang, aspri kami like again pdkt you know," said Mentari made Jervario frowned.

"Oh yeah? How do you know?"

Mentari then chuckles to remember early in the morning he saw Belinda who got a bouquet of medium-sized red roses and a brown with pink ribbons wrapped around it.

At first Belinda was confused when there were employees who delivered the bouquet of flowers and chocolates to her desk. They initially thought the bouquet was for Mentari. Without reading the sender's bouquet, Belinda just handed the bouquet to Mentari who happened to come out of his study. The curious mentari immediately opened the paper tucked inside the flower and then smiled amusedly.

'This is a bouquet of flowers of the same chocolate for you, Bel, not me," said Mentari made Belinda frown.

'I, Ma?' ask Belinda for confusion. 'Ah, no way. Who wants to tell me these things, mom don't joke!'

'I'm serious, Bel. I can't believe it, read it!' Mentari then thrust the white paper into the hands of Belinda. He immediately read it and widened his eyes.

For my sunshine, Belinda

Make a sweet smile to start your day!

Have a nice day.

Dario S's.

*Belinda widened her eyes as she read to whom the bouquet of flowers and chocolates was for. Belinda snorted after finding out who the sender was. I don't know what the purpose is, Belinda doesn't understand at all. After all, early in the morning given flowers and chocolates, did he eat flowers? She's not Suzanna! Then chocolate? Belinda does like chocolate especially those with cashews, but masa'ya she early in the morning eat chocolate, although it does not matter the truth. But ... Belinda was still confused. Especially after reading the message in it which is like a sentence for a lover. What is Belinda Dario's lover?

A lover?

Belinda never thought at all about having a lover let alone having love. For him, there is no love as eternal as his mother's love for him.

Mentari chuckled amusedly at Belinda's confused expression.

'Ekhem, looks like someone is pdkt, hm? Well, y'all turned out secretly ... ' Mentari seduces Belinda. Instead of smiling shyly with red cheeks, Belinda scratched her temple with an unreadable look. Mentari to his own dismay sees that expression of his aspr which he is very different from the expression of other girls when getting attention and romantic gifts*.

Jervario was unable to hold his bracelet when he heard the story from his wife.

"Bag so remember what you said to Dario at our wedding, baby. And now, all is proved, he is the one who said it himself. hahaha ... I can't wait to tease him," Jervario said, rubbing his stomach, which hurt from laughing too much.

"About Dario can naklukin Belinda isn't ya, bang?"

"So, my brother was curious. But as a friend, my brother was very supportive. Dario is a good man, though his mouth is more beautiful than a woman's. She is also jodi, the immortal singles. Dario is handsome, but his mouth makes the girls reluctant to approach. He's also too picky, it's a little wrong, so little wrong. Brother just salute Belinda, how can he naklukin Dario without doing anything."

The couple continued the activities of granting their personal assistants until they were completely satisfied.

At night, Jervario looks in the mirror watching her performance while making a video call. He asked how she looked that night. After getting a thumbs up from his wife, he closed the call and rushed out of his room to meet the father to come together to the hotel restaurant where the dinner was held with Mr. Malik.

Upon their arrival at the hotel restaurant, it appeared that Mr. Malik's personal assistant allowed his master's guests to enter one of the private rooms in the restaurant. They then do dinner while chatting.

Just as Gathan was about to retreat, suddenly Lord Malik stopped him leaving Gathan and Jervario confused.

It turned out that Mr. Malik wanted to speak privately with Gathan and Jervario until now there are only Gathan, Jervario, Tio (Aspri Gathan), Mr. Malik, Raniah, and Amir (Aspri Tuan Malik) left.

Gathan and Jervario agreed to the request. They sit back to their original place after the other employees have moved from there.

"What does Mr Malik want to talk about? Is this about our cooperation?" ask Gathan to the point. If Raniah usually translated the words of Gathan to his father, this time Amir was the mediator.

"No. This has nothing to do with cooperation. But it's a personal affair that might harden our relationship."

"meaning?" ask Gathan in confusion.

Then Mr. Malik glanced at Raniah who smiled confidently, then turned to Jervario who looked flat.

"I'd like to have a family relationship with you. That is, my daughter is interested in your son, so are you willing to impress me by making my daughter your daughter-in-law?" said Mr. Malik who has been translated by Amir.

Gathan and Jervario widened their eyes. They didn't expect that on their last night in Dubai, they would get an impromptu proposal like this. It is not wrong for them to consider this a proposal because what Mr. Malik conveyed was the same as proposing his son to his daughter.

Before Gathan gave an answer, Jervario first raised his voice.

"I'm sorry, I can't because I already have a wife." Jervario said with firmness but responded by Mr. Malik with a smile.

"Having a wife doesn't mean you can't get married again, right? Is it not permissible in Islam for men to have up to four wives, so what is the problem? To be fair, I'm sure people like you can be fair. For property, you don't need to worry because my daughter also has shares in my company even though she will have to come with you to your home country, so I guarantee you, Raniah will not be concerned about financial matters." Answer Mr. Malik.

Jervario sighed, "in Islam it is permissible to have four wives, but is there any guarantee that the wives will be at ease to see her husband remarry? No. gabe. In the mouth he can say yes, may, but in the heart who knows? And I don't want to make my wife's heart sad let alone hurt and disappointed. I love him sincerely from the bottom of my heart. His happiness is the main thing for me. I am happy when my wife is happy, so once again I reiterate, until I never wish my wife any reason." Tukas Jervario was firm. His eyes were calm, without the slightest shiver of hesitation. Lord Malik was astonished to hear every word that was thrown from Jervario's lips. He now understands the reason for the Princess to be interested in Jervario, not only because of her intelligence, but also her loyalty to the couple. When other men might soon receive a tempting offer from him, but Jervario is different.

"Despite the stakes of our cooperation?" Said Mr. Malik a similar threat. Jervario stiffened because of it. He did not expect that Mr. Malik could use their cooperation as a threat. His team's struggles are at stake, he is at a loss as to what to answer.

Not wanting his son to be bullied, Gathan spoke up.

"of course. We don't matter. For us, the happiness of our partner is paramount. Let us bear the loss, most importantly the existence of our partner remains intact on our side." Strictly Gathan with his cold face.

Gathan and Jervario are completely unexpected, the nature of Mr. Malik is selfish and coercive. For the sake of his daughter's personal interests, even they had the heart to sacrifice the cooperation they had just established. But Gathan is fine, for him the happiness and wholeness of his children's household is the main. Money can be sought, but happiness and a near-perfect partner like his wife and daughter-in-law are not as easy to get and Gathan is unwilling to sacrifice his son-in-law for the benefit of the company.

Seeing his business partner moving away from there just made Mr. Malik immediately stand up and stop him then apologize for his stupidity. With a red face, Raniah apologized for making Gathan and Jervario annoyed with his crazy desire. He thought it was just a denial of pleasantries. But it turns out Jervario was earnest with his words.

'What a lucky woman to have become your wife. I thought, you'll be easy to achieve, but in fact, everything was not as I expected, ' the mind of Raniah who felt sad. Though usually he was the one who got the marriage offer from others and always ended with his rejection, but now he was the one who was rejected outright by the first man who managed to make a beating on his chest.
