I Can'T Have Your Heart.
Meet back.

* SEOUL KOREA.

* BRT GROUP COMPANY.

"Welcome young master."

Sapa Dareen who immediately bowed to pay respect, as well as all BRT GROUP Employees who have been waiting in the lobby to welcome and pay their respects to the highest leadership in the Company. Likewise, the four bodyguards Alpha Khandra who had been standing next to him immediately walked following Alpha steps towards a special elevator to go to his room.

"I've scheduled your meeting with the EFR GROUP Company leadership at 1pm, but if you're still tired, I can postpone it at a later time." Dareen.

"No need, isn't the sooner the better."

"Okay sir" replied Dareen who only nodded, he should not forget the attitude of his President, who will never do so, whatever the reason.

"Boost,"

"Yes young master."

"I saw Edrea on another girl." Said Alpha while staring at a frame in which there is a picture of Edrea still perched neatly on his desk.

"What's? Mean Sir?"

"The girl I knew in Germany, she had a lot in common with Edrea." Said Alpha while leaning his tired body on a back of his work chair while shutting. His memory returned to the figure of Starla who had secretly filled his mind at this moment. Not even Alpha can deny his heart, if he misses the girl enough, though He does not fully understand the feelings He feels for her.

"Is it possible that the girl put her heart on you?"

"Hm.."

"Then, what about yourself?" Dareen asked with curiosity.

"Either.. Maybe the feeling I feel is only limited to an older brother's attraction to his sister." Alpha is full of worries.

"But the girl is not Edrea,"

"I know, even Yoon said the same thing."

"It's true, because that's the truth, you can't equate the two, because they're different people."

Dareen's answer made Alpha silenced for a moment by taking a deep breath. Now he felt very confused, something was different from his feelings when he missed Starla, and he could feel his heart pounding as a face with a sweet smile that belonged to Starla flashed in his mind.

"Maybe the young master has started to fall in love with the girl" Guess Dareen.

"Don't you know." Reject Alpha with his stubborn attitude.

"But according to the book I read..."

"Fuck your stupid book," Reply Alpha closed his eyes again.

"But the book.."

"Well.. I know, you always thought the book was true, but until now you're single, are you going to be old enough?" Alpha speech that makes Dareen's expression change.

"Aish, it's not like that sir, I just don't want it yet." Reply Dareen for various reasons.

"Tsk, the answer is always the same, maybe if at that time you went with Wil around the world, it could be that you have got a soul mate."

"But I'm more comfortable with you here young master, someday I might as well have a life partner, but when you're married again and have a child." Reply Dareen relaxed that makes Alpha choke, even he himself has not thought up to that direction, because the Wife and a child are still very far from the mind of Alpha, Alpha, even though she wanted him to get married again. Alpha has been reluctant to think about marriage, since her divorce from Emery, she really doesn't want to start a new life with any woman, and it works, building a solid wall to fortify himself, but until finally the sturdy fortress slowly began to collapse, now alive and his feelings were again disturbed by the presence of a woman named Starla.

"Dareen, you don't have to wait until I get married, you can get in touch with whoever you like from now on"

"Unfortunately I haven't gotten the woman Mr" Reply Dareen.

"Tsk, don't you always count on your books?"

"Yes, but sometimes the content of the book does not match our expectations, young master,"

"Then why did you offer it to me? even always advising me to follow your weird book directions?" Ask Alpha who makes Dareen nervous.

"I'm just trying, maybe with the Master it could be different." Answer Dareen.

"So you're doing an experiment with me?"

"Ah not like that, sir,"

"alright.. It seems like it's time."

Alpha replies that immediately ended their small debate after being content to play around with Dareen, while looking at the clock that was coiled on his arm, he said, Alpha moved from his seat and immediately stepped out of the room followed by Dareen and also his four Bodyguards who were always stanby in front of the door of his study.

* * * * *

Until the black Alphard car belonging to Alpha parked in a luxury Restaurant, where Dareen chose to meet with EFR GROUP leaders according to the agreed schedule.

The Alpha escorted by his two Bodyguards entered the Restaurant, which seemed to be waiting for him there. Because he can see one figure that looks different from the other end in the Restaurant. The figure that was sitting with a cold gaze also looked haughty, with both of his Bodyguards who were also standing right behind him, until the assistant of Elfredo man stood up to welcome the arrival of Alpha Khandra and Dareen with a friendly smile.

"Good afternoon Mr. Alpha Khandra,"

Sapa Keano Favian, Assistant from Lucas Elfredo while bowing in salute. Likewise with the cold man who had been sitting while observing Alpha who finally stood up while extending his hand towards Alpha.

"Meet me, Lucas Elfredo." Said the man who was immediately greeted by Alpha.

"Alpha Khandra Berta."

"Ah, please sit Mr. Khandra," Reply Keano who immediately invited Alpha and Dareen to sit down.

"How about Mr Khandra, have you studied the cooperation proposals that our Company has submitted?" Lucas asked open the conversation tampa pleasantries, while leaning his body and crossing his legs, what a haughty attitude that makes Alpha a little careless, it is true what Dareen said all along, indeed, if the man sitting in front of him right now is indeed very annoying with his arrogance.

"Sorry Mr. Lucas, it looks like my company cannot accept this cooperation." Reply Alpha as warmly as possible, which makes the atmosphere inside the Restaurant especially the VIP room where they are now becoming quiet with a different atmosphere than before, a sharp gaze is clearly visible between the two. Until if there are other people who see other than those in the room, they will certainly think if they do not like each other.

"Aren't you impolite, Mr. Alpha Khandra? Refuse to read in advance the proposal that our Company submitted?" Lucas asked who seemed to be holding back his anger. Although a real smile was engraved on his lips, but the look in his eyes clearly showed anger.

"I'm sorry if you feel like I'm being disrespectful, and I think I'm just being reasonable, and for this proposal, I don't need to read it, do I? Because it's obvious I don't approve of this cooperation." Alpha spoke with his flat face, as well as his smile that made Lucas increasingly look furious.

"You're quite sassy Mr. Khandra, don't you know, how famous the EFR Company is in the Country? Even very many other Companies that want to work with Our Company," continued Lucas with his Arogan attitude.

Reply Alpha with one question that once again leaves Lucas speechless with an indecipherable expression. What is clear is that the gaze filled with anger and disappointment is very clearly drawn on the cold face of Lucas, even though all of that he covered with a smile.

"Young master, it looks like Mr. Alpha Khandra's decision is over, and we can't force him anymore." Whisper Keano to his Chairman Lucas who is still silent but any expression. And the Assistant understands enough that the current President is clearly angry, because so far no one else has refused to cooperate with his Company, until today, for the first time he had to swallow disappointment, because only BRT GROUP dared to reject him outright.

"Alright, but it's not over, Mr. Khandra, our business is not done yet." Said Lucas Elfredo who finally let out a voice, although it sounded very intimidating for those who listened to it, but it seemed to have no effect with an Alpha Khandra who only showed a smile smirknya.

"I don't think we have any more business, Mr. Lucas, sorry."

Reply Alpha Khandra who was still with a smile, even his gaze grew sharper looking at Lucas who had moved from his seat, slightly tidied up his suit and immediately stepped leaving Alpha Khandra who was still sitting there while leaning his body on the back of the chair.

"It looks like Mr. Lucas is a little disappointed with your decision." Dareen opened his voice.

"Tsk, a haughty man like him, really makes me sick." Reply Alpha who also moved from his seat and immediately stepped out followed by his Bodyguard who always followed him anywhere. Until his footsteps stopped when the figure who had just entered from the restaurant almost hit his body.

"All.. An alpha?"

"Emery?"

Reply Alpha who immediately became confused will behave like what in front of his ex-wife who is now standing right in front of him with a smile and eyes filled with longing.

"During the Alpha, are you okay?" Ask Emery.

"Hm,"

Answer Alpha briefly with a thin smile drawn from his lips. What a clumsiness that makes Alpha not used to, as well as Emery who can only be bowed to cover his nervousness.

"I miss you."

Emery muttered that he immediately looked at Alpha's face for a moment until he finally fell back when Alpha's eyes were still on him.

It's been two years since their divorce, but deep down, Emery still misses Alpha Khandra, even as much as Alpha hates her, it cannot change his heartfelt affection for Alpha, until now the feeling is still the same, even though he still does not know, whether Alpha still has hatred for him and his family or not.

Emery is well aware, if not easy to forget everything, of forgetting the one ingrained hatred in Alpha's heart, even if Emery thinks again, the father's death is not enough to pay for it all, for all who have felt the pain of his father have not yet fully recovered. Even they are still always followed by sadness and trauma that is difficult to just disappear. That is what Emery is thinking at the moment, as she looks back at and greets the man who was once her husband, the man who used to hate her so much, and now smiles at her, even though it was only for a moment.

"Looks like I should go, goodbye."

Alpha talks that immediately disperse the reverie Emery who can only nod slowly when he sees Alpha smiling back at him before stepping away leaving him who is still silent staring there.

"Hey, are you okay? What's going on?"

Ask Kang Daniel who immediately embraces Emery's shoulder that is still not out of place. Even he was shocked when his eyes collided with the gaze of Kang Daniel who was standing right in front of him.

"Ah, I'm fine," Emery said nervously.

"What's going on?"

Asked Kang Daniel who immediately grabbed Emery's hand while stepping towards a chair they had ordered for lunch, while Emery could only be silent and complied, following Kang Daniel's footsteps, he said, pull up a chair for him to sit on. Then followed Kang Daniel who was also sitting in front of him.

"What's wrong?" Ask Kang Daniel.

"I.. Just met Alpha." Emery replied a little.

"What's? An alpha? Is he back?"

"Hm.. He's already here."

Emery's reply which inexplicably made Kang Daniel suddenly silenced with an expression that looked filled with worry.

"You okay?"

Kang Daniel slowly seemed to care about his own feelings which were actually not okay. For him the most important thing is the feeling and heart of Emery, the woman he has loved so much. Although he does not know the contents of Emery's heart that also loves him or not, but it really does not care for him, as long as he is always on Emery's side and protects the woman, he said, he really doesn't care.

"I'm fine, I'm just so surprised I didn't expect to see him here."

"Yes I understand."

Reply Kang Daniel who is still with a feeling of dread, even so he is still trying to keep smiling as usual.

"Daniel's.. "

"Hm.. What's up?"

"Ah no, it's okay." Reply Emery.

"Emery, what's wrong? You seem anxious" asked Kang Daniel slowly.

"It's okay,"

"Is this feeling of anxiety related to what happened earlier?" Kang asked Daniel to guess.

"Either.. Because until now I still can't forget it." Emery replied that even forgetting something, forgetting the feelings of Kang Daniel who would definitely be hurt by the words he had just issued.

Kang Daniel's body suddenly feels stiff when he hears Emery's blatant statement saying that he still can't forget Alpha. Although Kang Daniel tries to understand Emery's feelings and his current position, it still hurts Kang Daniel.

"Eat first." Reply Kang Daniel while putting a plate whose steak has been cut by him.

"Thank you Daniel." Emery smiled.

"Hm"

"Sorry.. " Said Emery slowly.

"I'm sorry?"

"If it's got you worried."

"I understand." Kang Daniel smiled as much as he could to show Emery that he was okay.
