Call Me a Rose

Call Me a Rose
Chapter 8


Gunawan is one of the people who worked on Jelita since the beginning of Jelita opened his first boutique. Actually Gunawan does not have the ability in accordance with the qualifications needed at that time. Gunawan's background is only a graduate of SMU. Jelita accepts Gunawan works at her boutique in the name of humanity.


One day at his small boutique that had only opened for a few months, there was a furore. A couple first sat resting in front of a boutique hall. Although slightly disturbing the scenery, Jelita let them off and did not throw them away. But then the wife whose stomach had grown cried out in pain. It turns out that the wife is about to give birth. Because they have no fees and do not have a vehicle, they intend to walk to the puskesmas. But when it was only half way, the wife was exhausted, until they finally sat down to rest in front of Jelita's boutique. Seeing that there was someone who needed help right in front of his shop, Jelita did not stay silent. Jelita helped the woman into her car, then drove them to the intended health center. Even when he saw the husband who only had a few thousand pieces in his wallet, which was not even enough to buy food and drink for his wife, Jelita's heart was moved to help. Jelita took the initiative to pay off the woman's treatment costs, also putting a sizable sum of money in the envelope for them. But when Jelita said goodbye, the wife who had just finished giving birth held Jelita's hand and did not let her go.


"Sir, thank you so much for helping us.but this is all too much, we can't take it for free..."


"Not what Mom, I'm happy to see Mom giving birth to a handsome baby boy in good health and safety, I'm also sincere to help, hopefully it can be useful for Mom and family..."


"Thank you very much, but Ma'am.Can I ask you again?"


"Seek what please, ma'am? If I can, I will try to..."


"Mbak can spend that much money easily, surely Mbak is not a random person. It has been six months since my husband left work, while bills and daily necessities continued to swell, our savings were up, not to mention we had to pay the rent. Please give my husband a job or please find a job with a connection that you have, I promise I will repay all the help that you can give today..."


Hearing the request for a moment Jelita thought. He's not in need of employees, but hiring one more person to help out at the boutique doesn't seem like a problem.


"Well, let me think about it first, ma'am...Is there a number you can call?"


"There was no mbak, but my husband's handpone was only a handpone in the past who could only receive calls and texts..."


"It's okay, later I will call if I have information..My name is Jelita, this is my business card, what is my mother's name?"


"My name is Lidya, and my husband is Gunawan, thank you very much in advance, this is my husband's phone number..."


"Well Mom I say goodbye first, if there's anything you can call me..."


"Okay Ma'am, thank you so much again, be careful on the road..."


"Together..."


Jelita then agrees to hire Gunawan in his boutique. At first Gunawan only helped with hoarseness. But then Jelita saw that Gunawan is fast learning and has potential. Little by little Gunawan is given the opportunity to learn administration, finance, design, and marketing. Gunawan's career short story developed quite rapidly as the development of Jelita's boutique which later turned into GAYA.Corp. But Jelita did not understand why Gunawan betrayed her and turned to attack her.


Gunawan also introduced Jelita to Arya Anggara who was none other than his nephew. Jelita suspects that they indeed have a sinister plan and works together to bring her down. Even after his romantic relationship with Arya ran aground in the middle of the road, several times Jelita found the findings of irregularities made by Gunawan that greatly harmed the company. Of course Jelita will not stay silent. But Jelita also did not want to be rash. Jelita wants to investigate everything and find complete evidence to uncover the case. And especially, Jelita is very curious, what exactly is Gunawan and Arya's motive for doing this to her?


So that afternoon in disguise as Rose, the office girl village, Jelita desperate to enter the room Gunawan when the owner of the room was having a meeting outside the office. Gunawan currently serves as the director of marketing where all promotional and marketing activities become his authority. Later Gunawan is known to deliberately reverse the schedule of product launching, where it turns out that products with similar designs have been launched first by competing companies. While checking the computer in Gunawan's room, Jelita found some suspicious emails between Gunawan and someone who was suspected by a competitor company. Jelita does a screenshot and saves it to collect evidence. Jelita also finds some suspicious documents on Gunawan's desk. Jelita took a picture of everything and kept it. Not long after Jelita aka Mawar finished with his action, he heard the steps of approaching Gunawan's room. Jelita disguised as Rose immediately cleared everything and walked out of the room with a mop. Roses walked down, but could still see clearly that Gunawan was coming with Arya to his room. How dare Arya still come to her company after all that happened? But more suspicious of course, what would they do inside?


Jelita contacts Diara and sends him all the evidence she has, also telling her that Arya came to the office.


Di, please investigate more deeply and do an analysis of these findings!


Jelita attached all the evidence she got in that email.


After the email was sent, Jelita contacted Diara on her phone to quickly respond to her request. Not long ago Diara immediately replied to his message.


Oh Je, my work is stacking this, instead of helping cake, even added-plus continue! Btw, why don't you kick the fucking Gugun directly, the proof is already a lot if he is a mess!


Patience Di, we must investigate to the roots! Lo overtime again tonight, I will give you a bonus! I've done a lot of work as an OG


Goddamnit! Lo who disguised me so I bothered anyway!


Despite the nagging, Diara continued to carry out Jelita's orders diligently. But instead, Diara had the bright idea to avenge all the arbitrary treatment her boss had done.


Just delicious! I was given the job of seabreg, you are fun with handsome OB!


So grumbled Diara in heart.


Diara then went to the pantry to find a rose.


"Rose, please make some coffee and take it to my room!"


"Yes mbak!"


"Rose, when you're done please copy these files?"


Said Diara while handing over a stack of files.


"Then buy a snack at the minimarket for my overtime friend later! Oya, after that you do not go home first, you please accompany me overtime because it looks like I will need a lot of help later..."


"Yes, um..."


Diara laughed triumphantly. When else can enslave the boss? it's yummy! He doesn't want to be tired of being alone.
