BO LI, Independent Woman, Sir
Summertime

Bo Li sat in his study chair, a pile of maps containing important papers that he had to sign lying on his desk.

Bo Li sipped a cup of coffee aroma in his hand. His gaze was sweet, he occasionally saw a calendar sitting on a table.

"Died two more days.?.?, I am engaged to a man I do not know?" said Bo Li.

Bo Li leaned his head on his work chair, he closed his eyes while slowly breathing out.

"What should I do now?, yesterday I explained all the truth of the news and I do" Bo Li said.

Bo Li tried to calm his mind and turned his chair to the outside of the window, Bo Li's work room was located on the top floor of this office building.

Seen by the view of the buildings outside the glass window, Bo Li liked his work room because he could immediately see the vast expanse of the sky.

"Hmm, what is Grandpa Li planning to do, after having appointed me as CEO in his place, grandfather immediately informed me of my engagement?" Bo Li said in his heart.

"TOK ! TOK ! TOK!", there was a sound of the door being knocked from the outside.

"Come in!", said Bo Li.

"Sorry, Miss Bo Li had a call earlier if the boss of the firm company would come here!", a young woman entered the room.

"What time will it come?", asked Bo Li.

"Half an hour later, the secretary called if Ivander Liam's boss was already on his way here" the woman replied in an amu parable to Bo Li.

"What he wants to talk about with our company, he knows this company is not engaged in the firm and Ivander Liam's boss company is indeed a large company that houses various firms but we are not a firm", said Bo Li astonished.

"I don't understand, Miss Bo Li, the secretary just told me Ivander Liam's boss would come here but his intentions weren't conveyed in the message".

"Well, I'll meet him in the study so if Ivander Liam's boss gets here right away, understand Laila's secretary?" said Bo Li.

"Well, miss, I understand!", replied the secretary.

The woman named Laila left and left Bo Li who was still sitting facing the window of her study.

***

My name is Bo Li, I am still young at the moment which is about twenty-five years and just completed an economics degree program at a famous university abroad.

My grandfather named Li Sanders appointed me as a CEO to replace him leading a large company that Grandpa Li started from the bottom to have several companies spread around the world, because I'm the only granddaughter of my grandfather, because my mother is the only daughter of Grandpa Li, but I don't understand why my grandfather raised her that fast when I just graduated from college a year ago.

A few minutes later Laila's secretary came into her office and told her that Boss Ivander Liam had arrived and was waiting in the living room outside her office.

Bo Li's office is a magnificent, five-story building in the middle of downtown B-one and his office is located on the top floor of the office building. Secretary Laila was standing in front of the desk, waiting for Bo Li to finish his job.

"Bos Ivander Liam is waiting, Miss Bo Li!" said Laila.

"All right, I'll see him soon ! Oh yes, Laila please make us a cup of coffee and bring us a cake in the living room!", said Bo Li.

"Yes, miss, is there anything else?" asked the office secretary.

"No, that's enough, thank you" Bo Li said.

"Well, lady, excuse me first" Secretary Laila said and left.

Bo Li stepped towards the living room, he saw a man sitting on the sofa, the man turned towards Bo Li as he walked into the living room of the office.

"How are you?", replied Ivander Liam.

"My news is very good, Mr. Ivander Liam", said Bo Li.

"Hmm, thank goodness!" said Ivander Liam.

They stood together and threw a smile together, Bo Li then invited a man named Ivander Liam to sit back.

"Have you come from earlier, Mr Ivander Liam?", asked Bo Li.

"Yes, just ten minutes ago, thank you for asking" said the man as he tidied up his suit.

"Sorry, you came here, is there anything you want to talk to me about?", asked Bo Li.

"Dad?", said Ivander Liam.

"If you may know, what do you want to discuss with me?" said Bo Li.

"I want to acquire your company, miss", said the man casually.

"Sorry, what are you talking about?" Bo Li said in surprise.

"Because your grandfather arranged our marriage together then he allowed me to hold this company" Ivander Liam said.

"WHAT?" said Bo Li in shock.

"I will not take over the shares of the company as a whole, because my main goal is not for that" Ivander Liam said, glancing at Bo Li.

"I'm sorry, Mr Ivander Liam, I really don't understand the direction of this conversation?" Bo Li said confusedly.

"Our engagement is two days away, miss, and that means in 2880 minutes you'll be my fiance" Ivander Liam said.

"Please explain slowly to me, what does this all mean?, frankly I do not understand?" said Bo Li.

"There's nothing to explain, miss, because it's all very clear that we're getting engaged in two more days" Ivander Liam said.

Bo Li leaned against his body and looked at the aquarium in front of him, sighing deeply, while Ivander Liam had already left eleven minutes ago from Bo Li's office, he is alone sitting in the living room.

***

Two days later...

The engagement will soon be held in one of the luxury hotels in the city of B-one, many of the company's colleagues who will be present at the engagement event Bo Li and Ivander Liam, the company's, not only from among businessmen and coworkers but they also invited B-one City officials.

At around nine in the morning, Bo Li's engagement will begin and be seen in the hotel building, precisely in the hall, the invited guests have been crowded, looking important guests such as ministers, he said, the vice president and president as well as the officials of B-one City were present and fellow businessmen and co-workers came to watch Bo Li's engagement.

Bo Li stood with a bouquet of white roses in front of a mirror in the hotel's dressing room, she was wearing a long dress with a light blue turtleneck dress and a long silk cloth covering her head, the dress made Bo Li look more elegant today, she looked at herself in the mirror.

Bo Li's gaze glared deep into the mirror, he reflected but did not see himself there because his mind was currently flying without direction, not feeling his tears welling up from the corner of his beautiful eyes.

"Lord, if I were able to escape from this, and manage to leave this engagement, I would promise myself that I would find a first in my second life, had he been a man, I would have made him my husband that very day and if it was a woman, I would have shared my treasure with him!", Bo Li said, wiping his tears.

Suddenly there was the sound of lightning striking from a distance on a clear morning. Bo Li was aghast when he heard the sound of lightning and realized from his daydream, he walked towards the outside window of the hotel room and he saw the atmosphere this morning was very bright with bright sunlight.

"My feelings have become uneasy, is it possible because of this forced engagement?" Bo Li said.

Someone knocked on the door of the room and told him to immediately get ready to head to the hotel hall as the event was about to begin. Bo Li walked out of the room with a woman and a man.

Seen as a man welcoming Bo Li's arrival in the middle of the hotel hall room, the man was wearing a black suit and subordinate to neat and complete black trousers, the man was Ivander Liam, prospective fiance Bo Li. The two of them walked together and joined hands to the engagement venue that had been prepared. There was a table and a pair of chairs laid out in the middle of the hotel hall reserved for the two of them, an event attendant guiding the two of them to the place that had been prepared.
