Erica's Secret

Erica's Secret
After Fiancee


Erica's status changed overnight. What was once just an ordinary woman by becoming a secretary, now he turns into an official lover of Jonathan which Jonathan is the owner of the company with the highest position. But, Erica did not want to leave her job just like that. He still wants to contribute to the company and work.


The drastic change in Erica's position is of course a lot to talk about. But they couldn't stop what Jonathan had set out to do.


"I can't let you work under me anymore, honey, there's a new secretary, while you're just focused on our marriage. Okay well? Our wedding will be in two weeks' time" Jonathan said


"Honey, then me, where am I going to work? I still want to work, honey."


"Keep helping to make the wedding if you're not who else, baby. But you know for yourself I don't believe in their choices. You must still make decisions and during choosing clothes or anything related to marriage. During that time you take a vacation first. You don't have to work first."


"But...."


Jonathan knows Erica's worries. All this time he was used to working hard everyday. His pride is only in his work. She did not want to be humbled just because she had become Jonathan's wife who only stayed at home.


Jonathan advanced his steps towards Erica. Touching his shoulders and tidying up the hair on his forehead. He stared with a smile that adorned his face then hugged her to make Erica calmer.



"Patience, Honey. I'll take care of it one by one. Please focus on the wedding first. After that I will talk to Papa, you will hold which company. I will always try to make you comfortable with this choice" Jonathan said.


Erica felt her heart touched by Jonathan's words. Never had he met a man as good as Jonathan. The distance between marriage and marriage does not differ much. So everything will be prepared.


Erica is not alone. There will be WO and Christy who will help him. In this way, everything will be finished in time and Jonathan hopes he will soon become a protector for Erica.


Erica nodded and stared in Jonathan's wedge of eyes. Very quiet and soothing. He sure could have done all this with Jonathan.


"Just be by my side first, baby. I want to finish it one by one."


Erica smiled and kissed Jonathan's cheek slowly.


"All right, honey.."


******


Joshua returned to Borneo. He cannot leave the project too long. The atmosphere in the project regained wisdom since Joshua's return. Because yesterday during Joshua in Jakarta, many workers were working casually because the boss did not come to check the location.


From the airport, Joshua directly came to the project site. He saw the progress of the building there. He saw Eshan lifting the cement. Joshua approached her. Before approaching him, he remembered what Jonathan had said at the airport.


Jonathan hugs Joshua as his farewell. Before releasing him back, Jonathan whispered something.


"Jaga Eshan is good. Know what that means? He owes me. Either he can pay it or he can't. Let's see it." Jonathan said. Joshua nodded in understanding and saw Jonathan taking off his embrace and returning to his usual attitude. Jonathan smiled again and waved his hand at Joshua who started to enter his boarding pass.


Joshua continued his steps and stayed close to Eshan. During his walk towards Eshan, Joshua saw Daniel standing in the car park watching Eshan of course.


"Eshan." call Joshua as soon as he gets in front of Eshan who's laying the cement sack.


Eshan who felt called immediately stood up to see Joshua coming.


"Yes, Boss."


"After work, come to my apartment."


"What's up, huh, Boss?" asked Eshan not understanding.


"Come by. There's something I want to talk about" Joshua said. Then leave the project area. Since the trip was quite tiring, he wanted to take a break in the apartment today.


He just wants to be ordered by fast food for his dinner.


Joshua exhaled his cigarette smoke into the free air. He lifted his head up. Thinking about what he should have done with Eshan's debt in order to pay off. Joshua just this time felt like he had to care about someone. Moreover, Eshan will be his family later.



Joshua's house bell rang. He went to the door of his apartment and opened the door. After opening the door, he saw Eshan already standing in the doorway with a tired face.


"Night, sir" said Eshan.


Joshua told her to go into his apartment.


"No thirst? I'll get you a drink" Joshua said. He tried to be polite. However, that night Joshua invited him as a guest.


Joshua opened the refrigerator and gave Eshan a bottle of water.


"Tonight there's something I want to talk about" Joshua said, inviting Eshan to sit down. Eshanpun sat on the chair that Joshua pointed at.


"What's up, sir?"


"You're Erica's brother, aren't you?" ask Joshua.


"Yes, sir."


"How long will you pay Jonathan your debt?" ask Joshua.


"I don't know yet. I'll pay you right after this payday, sir."


Joshua pulled out a card from his pocket. He put the card on the table.


"I'll help you pay the debt to Jonathan. I'll transfer once a month after payday, use my money" Joshua said.


Eshan was surprised by what Joshua said.


"This is serious, sir? But why, sir?" eshan asked, not believing that Joshua would help him.


"I want to keep the good names of you and Erica. I don't want you to hurt your family's self-worth later just because of your debt."


"But I don't want to be in debt anymore, sir."


"At least I won't take your kidney."


Eshan. He understood Joshua's intentions.


"If your debt to me has not been paid off, you only need to work until your debt is paid off" Joshua said again. Eshan was slightly goosebumps hearing Joshua's words that sounded more human than Jonathan.


"Erica's engaged to Jonathan."


Deg. Eshan's heart ached when he found out his sister was engaged to someone like Jonathan.


"I..know..."


"Don't you think that Erica knew all this what she was going to do?" ask Joshua. Eshan nodded slowly. He really doesn't think that far.


"Don't embarrass yourself with debt to loan sharks" Joshua said. Joshua was well aware of what his brother was doing wrong. He simply had no evidence to reveal his brother's crimes. He could only shut up and shut up.
