Maura immediately turned her face away, even with Rayyan.
"Damn, why is that look different?" inner Rayyan.
Leon could guess what his boss was thinking, his lips smiling. I prefer there to be feelings between them. But wait, the hell time is this lady Merlin's granddaughter married? Never heard of the news. Leon's mind waned as Rayyan nudged his body with an elbow.
"Focus, our goal is for the population. Make him agree to establish the company, the building is impossible to tear down" whispered Rayyan.
"Ehem." Leon started the conversation. "So this is Ms. ..," said Leon hanging because he had not been directly acquainted. Even during the meeting one year ago had not been able to introduce themselves.
"Maura, just call Maura" said the woman.
Rayyan turned her head, seeing that the woman now had charisma. Not like when he met her. Again, Rayyan recalled their brief romance. Meanwhile, Lisia as Maura's secretary presented a file regarding the original certificate regarding the land.
Show it to his superiors.
"Okay, so this is Mr. Leon." Maura paused, though she mentioned Leon's name but looked at Rayyan Smith. "This is the original file on the land, I want my grandmother never to sell the land to anyone" said Maura.
Leon finally issued the exact same file, until he could not distinguish which was real and which was fake. "Same, right?" leon asked while showing the certificate to Maura. "So the thing is, we bought this for just one signature, which is your signature" Leon said.
Rayyan still did not say, he handed the matter to Leon. If his right hand could not persuade the woman himself he would act.
"The problem is obvious, meaning you build buildings on illegal land. The land still belongs to the Merlin family, and until then I will not sell it" Maura explained.
"How, Boss? It seems a bit difficult" whispered Leon.
Rayyan changed her position, she sat right in front of the woman. He will try to persuade in other ways as long as the building is not torn down. Not only the losses experienced, the residents will still have obstacles in poverty if the building is not erected.
Rayyan took a deep breath before speaking. "Honored Lady Maura, so look at it. About the land it does not seem to be our fault, we were fooled by this certificate," Rayyan said, looking at the fake file. "I hope the building does not falter, we will continue construction" Rayyan explained.
"meaning? But that land doesn't belong to you, why are you still going to build it?" Maura looked at Rayyan's face without blinking, she just wanted to know if this arrogant man was still the same as before?
"I know, but the building I built was not for its own sake. Just think about this, the building will be established a company for the small people, helping the economy of the citizens. I will not admit that the land belongs to our company, I only ask for cooperation" Rayyan explained again.
If it had hit the small people, Maura could not do anything. He could see how hard it was to find a job. Maura looks worried. This decision could not be decided by unilaterally, he had to discuss the matter to Nolan. After all, he was not the true heir. She was just an ordinary woman who bore a resemblance to Morena Merlin.
"I'll talk about this to ..."
"Suami, you?" Rayyan.
His current thought was, the child that the woman was born with. He will not be rash, he does not want his plan to fail. He had to take care of it, a year's worth of patience if it ended just like that. Most importantly, the woman did not live with any man.
"If you really want to discuss this matter with your husband please, I would also like to meet him. There's something I want to talk about" Rayyan explained.
Maura's face looks nervous because there are lies in her life. What made Maura defend her lie was to protect her son, she did not want to be separated from him.
"Well, I think this meeting is quite up here. We're going to meet your husband, aren't we?" ask Rayyan.
"Ha-i-ya," Maura replied.
***
"What did you talk about, Boss? Why would you want to meet her husband? Does the boss still believe they're husband and wife? Nolan was just the right-hand man of Madame Merlin, and the boy ..."
Rayyan immediately smothered Leon's mouth, she didn't want anyone else to know about the baby. Rayyan was not unwilling to acknowledge the child, this was for their safety. He did not want the little baby to be the target of his enemy. While not yet safe, he will not show himself that he is the real father of the child Maura was born. What's more with Maura's status being the heir of mistress Merlin.
If Rayyan Smith's enemies knew about this, they would instantly disturb the calm of Maura and her son. The baby will be Rayyan Smith's heir. Bibliophile of a billionaire since baby. Rayyan must protect them, despite the hatred at stake.
He knew there was a dislike for the woman. And it was intentional to trick the enemy. This is how you protect them.
"What are you doing, Boss?!" Leon removed the boss' hand from his lips.
"So your mouth, I'm silent, not ignorant" Rayyan said.
"So? Boss knows everything? About the boy ..." Again Leon's speech stopped because Rayyan immediately sharpened the look in his eyes. "Yes, I kept my mouth shut."
"Don't tell me I know everything, including him," Rayyan said. He didn't want Maura to know about him knowing about his son. He was afraid that they would stay away, and it was not yet time that everyone knew who Rayyan Smith's true heir was.
Leon no longer spoke, he was even happy because finally, the boss turned out to do this because for their good.
"So, this whole time the boss is self-serving?" ask Leon. "I salute you, Boss. I don't think the boss cares about the girl."
"Care should not be shown, I do this for their good. Evidently, they were fine without being around me. I don't want them to be involved in my business that still has a lot of bad luck in business, you know for yourself that they want to occupy my position. I'm afraid they're after my weakness" Rayyan said.
"Yes, I know. Don't let your cousin know about your ancestry" Leon explained.
