HATE Before LOVE
Be stunned!

Ardan kicked the table, the first time Teddy made him angry, but the assistant still looked calm, like nothing had happened.

"In this world don't you know a single woman who doesn't like me other than that girl?" asked Ardan in a low voice.

"Sorry sir, I can't travel the world just to find a woman who doesn't like you anything else in just two days." Teddy answered calmly. "And dear has no acquaintance of female friends other than colleagues in your office and business clients."

"Huh, it turns out that you're a hottie too." Ardan let out a rough breath.

"All the female staff in the company I've asked one by one, and they all idolize you so much."

"Of course!" Sahut Ardan haughty.

"Except Elif and maybe Sonya." Teddy immediately dropped the pride of the young prince who was on the wind.

"Why didn't Sonya come with me?" Cibir Ardan's.

"That's impossible sir, because Miss Marsha already knows Sonya well enough. Not with Elif. Their meeting was only yesterday, and it's likely that Miss Marsha won't remember Elif's face."

Ardan seemed to be thinking, weighing Teddy's advice. It's only a few hours away, there's no time to go looking for 'famous friends' at a former wedding. He stood up, approaching the window of his study facing his secretary's desk. Sonya was there explaining something to Elif who was listening very seriously.

"But I think your advice is okay, Ted." Suddenly Ardan said. "Elif will not be suspicious, because his job is to obey all my orders. Accompanying me to Marsha's show won't make her look me one eye, will it?"

Although he did not really understand what the core of his boss's words were, Teddy still nodded.

"Call him here."

"Good Sir." Teddy's out of the room. Ardan returned to his seat. Quickly open some documents and pretend to be serious about doing something on her laptop screen. Several times changed the position of the right hand, between holding the chin or holding a pen or above the keyboard until the door opened again where Teddy entered followed by Elif, Ardan's hand was on his chin, Ardan was on his chin, seriously reading the documents.

"What can I help you with, sir?" ask Elif. His face was no longer as bright as when he met and spoke to Gavin.

"You come with Teddy right now, find a dress and fix it."

"Yet? An appearance? What's it for, sir?" elif was confused.

"You're going to have a special assignment tonight" Ardan said. "Ted, you know what you have to do."

Teddy nodded.

Elif had no idea what Ardan meant. And also did not understand how Teddy understood what the strange boss wanted.

"Wait a minute sir, I'm sorry, but I'm not going anywhere unless you tell me what special assignment tonight is?" Elif asked with an intonation of unsuspected suspicion.

"You don't think negatively first, you're going to go to a colleague's wedding" Ardan replied. "You and Teddy. You are my secretary and assistant. So it has to come." Ardan added hurriedly.

I've guessed. I will definitely be included. Teddy.

***

"Sir, were you also included at the wedding of his colleague Mr Ardan?" elif asked Sonya as she picked up her bag in a low voice.

"Never. Why?" ask Sonya.

"I was invited to the show of his colleague Mr. Ardan who got married tonight."

"What?!" Sonya's surprise along with Teddy who came out of the room and cleared his throat.

Elif immediately followed Teddy who was walking towards the elevator.

A few minutes later, Elif and Teddy were already in a big mall that Elif never entered because he knew there would not be any goods sold in the mall under the price of two hundred rupiahs, or maybe the cheapest price of any item in the mall was above five hundred thousand.

"Sorry sir, why are we here?" elif asked, trying to align his steps.

"Didn't you remember Mr. Ardan's orders?"

"If you want to find a dress, why not go to the wholesale market? There are also many nice dresses and..." Elif did not continue her sentence once she saw how cynical Teddy looked at her. Sometimes Teddy's scarier than Ardan.

Teddy immediately had a boutique clerk find dresses to try by Elif. Not only the dress, but also the footwear that fit the dresses.

Almost an hour passed Elif tried every dress, until one dress with a calm color and look sweet attached to the body of Elif is fairly small. Teddy nodded then paid for the dress and the heels that Elif immediately wore. After the boutique, they headed to a salon that was already very famous.

Teddy was seen talking to a man who seemed to be the owner of the salon, a man with a head of plontos without a strand of hair stuck to his slippery scalp, approach the Elif with a gait that bends like a model.

The feminine man looked at Elif from top to bottom. Long braided black hair. Shirts and pants of attached material are not fashionable at all. Flat shoes that are not at all stylish. And that tiny body of standing firm was not intimidated at all by the plontos man's gaze.

"Follow me yuk" she said in a feminine male voice. He turned around resting on both heels and then stepped towards one of the empty seats with a large mirror in front of him.

"Sit here baby" he said again, patting the back of the chair.

Elif said, not asking too many questions. He just wants this all done quickly.

***

Ardan ended his business phone call with a client from Hong Kong, then stuffed the phone into the inner pocket of his suit.

"Can she make over?" ask Ardan to Teddy on his way to the location.

"Can Sir."

"Oh yeah, what's it going to be like?"

"You'll see for yourself later sir."

"Yes yes, all right. Where did you tell him to wait?"

"At the restaurant at the hotel, sir."

"Does he mind being told to wait?"

"We had an argument because Elif did not want to be told to wait there. He wants to come with me to pick you up."

"Sadly, she must have wanted to make me gobsmackle with her appearance. He doesn't know, I'm not the kind of guy who easily gets gobsmacked by a woman's appearance, what else is she."

Teddy just shut up. No commenting.

Thirty minutes past a little they arrived at the location. After handing over the car keys to the valey officers, Ardan and Teddy break into the luxury hotel building.

"I'll call Elif to follow him to the ball room immediately" Teddy said.

"Yes, tell him to hurry, I want to get the hell out of here."

Shortly afterwards, Ardan heard footsteps wearing heels walking towards them. A woman, wrapped in a dress that looks so sweet and beautiful on her tiny body, hair that is elegantly arranged so that it shows her beautiful neckline. The face that looks familiar but not really, the woman looks not smiling but leads to her, look at her, right in Ardan's eyes.

The deg!

His heart throbbed and then beat fast. His brain commanded his eyelids not to blink staring in amazement at any woman who was getting closer. His lips opened so unknowingly he was sedated by the beauty and sweetness of the woman. Until the sweet aroma that had become his candlestick smelled greeted the nose and resuscitated it.

"Ehem, Ted, where's the girl?" Ardan immediately turned his eyes away from the woman earlier.

"I'm here sir." It wasn't Teddy who answered but Elif. Ardan looked up and how surprised he was to find the woman who had made his heart run around here and there was Elif.

"Who are you?!"

"Elif Sir! Your Secretary.

"You're not the kind of guy who easily gets gobsmacked by a woman's appearance, what else is an Elif." Teddy whispered to Ardan in a very low voice. Either remind the man's principle or insinuate him.
