"Ryan One?" Rychelle repeated Avega's words with a slightly quivering voice. The longing in Rychelle's chest for her biological father instantly made her sebak. Rychelle's hands clenched tightly to hold her back from acting suspicious.
The name that was spoken from Avega's mouth indicates that he must have known Rychelle's father well through the story of his daddy. This time Rychelle thought about staying close to Avega to dig deeper into the friendship between her biological father and Liber Ran and Ludolf Berwyn.
"Yes, Ryan One is a daddy's best friend that Daddy never manages to beat in chess" Avega and Rychelle just nod their heads.
"Oooh, so yeah. Then where is Mr Liber's best friend now?" rychelle asked, starting to pry for information.
"Now, in recent years Om Ryan did not appear to visit here to accompany Daddy playing chess" replied Avega.
Their conversation was interrupted because it was getting dark. Rychelle, who is desperate to return home, still has to wait for dinner to meet Liber Ran's request.
Dinner was very warm. Rychelle is really very quick to adapt to Liber Ran despite having just met and known each other. His conversation with Liber Ran was also limited to Rychelle's experience in playing chess.
"Oh yes, Rachel. I hope next time you visit the Mansion. Follow me to play chess, because om will beat you tomorrow." said Liber Ran when they finished their dinner.
"Okay, Rachel will do it." Rychelle replied. "If so Rachel say yes first" said Rychelle who was preparing to go home.
Just as Rychelle was about to leave the dining table with Avega, from the direction of the Mansion door seemed Molly and Alarick just up from their business trip. Alarick squinted his eyes as he watched his assistant look very close to Avega.
In contrast to Molly who actually pulled her lips to smile seeing her younger brother was getting close to a woman. It was even brave to take him to the Mansion and introduce him to his Daddy.
"Waaah, it turns out I missed a lot of stories this time" said Molly making Rychelle this time so a little misbehavior.
"I accidentally met your sister Miss Molly." Rychelle bowed slightly in front of Molly.
"It's okay, Rachel. You don't have to feel sorry for me." - Molly.
Not wanting to linger, Rychelle finally said goodbye to Molly and Alarick. But just as Rychelle was about to get into Avega's car, her arm was pulled by someone.
"Mr Alarick."
"I need you overtime tonight, Rachel. There are some files that we have to prepare for tomorrow's meeting" Alarick said.
"Veasy?" ask Avega in a tone of speech that disagrees. "It's not Bang's office hours, and Rachel's tired tonight" said Avega, who is now standing next to Rychelle.
Avega did submit to Alarick while at the office, but not for now. Avega knew very well that Rychelle must have been very tired tonight, especially that the girl had just fought some thugs to help her while at the Mall.
"Indeed not working hours, but a surprise meeting tomorrow, the files should be prepared tonight. And this is very IMPORTANT!." said Alarick with emphasis at the end of his sentence.
Rychelle threw her breath rough. He could not deny if tonight he felt very tired, especially he really wanted to soak warm water and lay his body on the mattress.
"But Mr. I haven't had a shower and changed clothes since. How can I be overtime in this situation?" rychelle asked for an excuse.
"You can take a shower at my Mansion later and after that we prepare the file for the meeting tomorrow morning." replied ALarick and now Rychelle began to not be able to wince.
"Oh yes Avega, I have the right to give orders to Rachel because she is my assistant" said Alarick who then pulled Rychelle's hand to get away from Avega and also his car.
" I'll help Rachel overtime tonight."
"Can't!" Reject Alarick firmly. "Your job is also waiting in the email I just sent tonight. You just focus on your job."
Avega stopped her steps and checked her phone. Alarick was right, because the task had just entered his phone 5 minutes ago. Avega was upset while reading it.
"Sad, troublesome. "the grouse of Avega who then turned back to his Mansion.
While Alarick now smiles triumphantly can beat Avega back to chase after him. Arriving in the car, Alarick asks Rychelle to sit next to him and Rychelle complies without the slightest refusal.
There was no conversation between the two while in the car as Alarick was very busy with the tab in his hand. Rychelle also continued to look out the window while hiding her drowsiness. I don't know how many times he yawned and for a long time Rychelle was unable to withstand his drowsiness.
...🍁🍁🍁...
"Who is this woman?!" ludolf Berwyn's baritone voice echoed loudly to the point of making Rychelle shocked and opening her eyes.
Rychelle blinked her heavy eyes many times and then turned her head perfectly when she realized that Alarick was carrying her bridal style.
"He's my new assistant who's gonna help me overtime tonight here" Alarick replied.
"Assistant doesn't know himself!" ludolf and Rychelle chuckled down and stood up while bowing their heads. "The fire never taught you to accept a cheap employee like this. Fire right now!" gertak Ludolf Berwyn on his son.
Rychelle who knew nothing was now only able to bow her head. He continued to curse his stupidity that was not strong enough to withstand his drowsiness this time.
"She's not the cheesy girl Papi said she was. I took the initiative to bring him inside in that way myself" Alarick said against his own papi.
Plaque! One hard slap landed on Alarick's face.
"Since when have you dared to refute papi, hahh?!" ludolf Berwyn's voice was rising.
"What's your name?" asked Ludolf who then turned to point towards Rychelle.
"Rachel Ortisia." replied Rychelle flatly.
"Is this how your parents taught you until you grow up to be a cheap woman?" asked Ludolf Berwyn who sounded so intimidating.
Hearing Ludolf's question made Rychelle dare to raise her head and now her netra immediately saturates with Ludolf's netra. His eyes are now starting to glaze over. In the depths of his heart he was furious when he heard his parents were brought up in this matter. Moreover, this time it was not Rychelle's fault in the least.
"We better get to the office tonight. We're working longer at the office than here." take Alarick by the shoulder to take Rychelle out of the Mansion.
"There's no overtime for an officer like him!" Shouted Ludolf who was increasingly furious with the behavior of his son. "Fire right now, Alarick!"
Alarick stopped his steps and turned to look at his papa. "I still really need him, and this is also for the sake of the progress of the office that papi established, right? And I have to prepare tonight's meeting materials for One Point's big business tomorrow morning. Please papi can understand." explained Alarick.
Ludolf Berwyn could not say a word. He could only watch his son leave him.
