I Hate You Mr. CEO
I Love You, Livia Kaira

Rafi looked ordinary when she got a call from Lendra, saying that the man was on his way to his hospital. Someone's hurt. That's all Lendra said. But what makes Rafi surprised is to see Livia in a sling Lendra with wounds almost the same as five years ago.

"He why?"

Rafi asked as she pulled up the table containing the equipment to clean the wound on Livia's head.

"They were sitting in a car."

"Again?"

Lendra frowned hearing Rafi's involuntary remark.

"What do you mean by again? Has he experienced this before?"

Rafi immediately immediately answered Lendra's question. He promised to keep this a secret from Lendra. Uh, instead of Livia going to Sidney with Christo and Vera back then. Why is Livia here now? Then where are the twins, Livia's son and ......Lendra.

Rafi immediately swallowed her saliva. He can't just talk in front of Lendra. He also shouldn't look nervous in front of Lendra. The man in front of Rafi has foresight in analyzing the body language of his interlocutors.

"Ah, back then but only a minor wound. I happen to be handling it."

"When?"

"Five years ago."

Lendra put on the look of a kepo as well as surprised. He doesn't know that Rafi knows Livia. Usually the doctor will not remember the patient unless the patient has a privilege. Rafi was also interested in Livia back then. Until the man remembered Livia.

"Dok, do we need to do a scan, considering the wound five years ago?"

"Dead me! Why the hell is this nurse even opened Livia's medical record. Lendra could be suspicious if this is the story."

Rafi's mind was upset at the nurse who just spoke. Don't know if this patient of his is in the VIP category for him. And sure enough, the look on Lendra's face showed suspicion to Rafi.

A ringing made the two men distract them. Livia opened her eyes. "I why?"

"Your witness's in the car."

Lendra answered. Seeing Lendra, Livia quickly distanced herself from the man. One thing that makes Rafi draw conclusions. Livia doesn't like Lendra.

"I want to go home. I'm fine."

The woman got out of her patient bed. "It's best to rest for a while. We'll check further."

"Raf, I can't......"

Livia and Rafi's interactions further make Lendra frown. Both have more than just patients and doctors.

"In-scan first!"

Rafi insists on having a thorough check on Livia. Even though that woman is fine now. But there are many cases of serious diseases that start from trivial problems. Just in case.

"But....."

"Do it for them."

Cut Rafi off them. For the sake of hearing Rafi mention "them" Livia's face immediately turned sad. Rafi was astonished. Did something bad happen after Livia moved to Sidney?

"Why did you save them, if at last one of them left me."

Livia's tears fall, for the first time Livia cries in front of others. Rafi, the guy who knows about her pregnancy. If it wasn't for Rafi's help, she could have lost her baby five years ago.

But it did not last long, because Lendra came and entered Livia's place. Seeing Livia's face, Lendra grew suspicious. What's the connection between Livia and Rafi.

"This woman, why are so many men close to her. Pasha, Bian and now Rafi."

Inner Lendra was upset. Livia insists on going home. And Rafi finally gave up, letting the woman go home.

"You're gonna drive him?"

"Of course."

"I'm going home by myself."

Livia's voice was heard from behind. The two men looked at him at the same time. The bandage with a slight red hue was coiled around Livia's head. The road is still on a nurse.

"Oh, the road is still staggering. Ngeyel wants to go home alone. Ayooo..."

Lendra pulls Livia's hand. After receiving Livia's bag from the nurse who delivered Livia earlier.

"Please!"

Lendra ignored Livia's protest, the man slightly dragging the woman to the car that was waiting at the door of the ER. "Lake in!"

Livia flinching. The defiant look the woman always gave to Lendra.

"Come, Via. Please."

After sighing, the woman finally complied. Glancing at her watch, Livia's consideration began to work. It was too late to find a taxi alone. Livia clucked in annoyance, why should she be stuck in the most annoying situation like this. Taking a taxi alone or with Lendra is equally dangerous.

"Basin' a stumped crocodile."

Livia's frown was full of anger. Hearing that, Lendra took a deep breath. Staring at Livia who chose to look out the window.

"Via, about five years ago.I'm sorry."

Livia turned her head when Lendra said that sentence. The corner of Livia's lips was slightly drawn. Underestimating, trivializing Lendra's speech.

"I'm serious Livia. Listen to..."

Lendra's words came to a halt as Livia raised her hand. "I don't care anymore about what happened in the past. But one thing's for sure, I hate you, Mr. CEO."

Lendra closed her eyes hearing Livia's words. It hurts when Livia says she hates him.

"Livia, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to play with your feelings."

"It really is, right? Never mind, this is the last time we met. Don't ever look for me again. Understood?"

Lendra looked at Livia's face. Although pale but the woman was still charming. Lendra's heart was pounding again.

"No! I'll keep looking for you...."

"Stop making trouble, Mr. Aditama. You're already married. And I don't want to be accused of being an actor."

Lendra gasped at Livia's words. This woman knows she's married.

"That's right she and Natalie are married." Inner Livia. Though the woman was originally talking, but seeing the reaction of Lendra, it could be said that his words were right.

"Irish and Isac, I beg you to forgive me. Your father is married. And maybe now you have a child. So there's no way I'm gonna take you guys to meet him. I'm sorry, Mom."

Inner Livia pilu. The woman turned her face away, avoiding Lendra's sad gaze. After that only silence enveloped the two. Until Lendra's car enters Grand Shamaya parking lot.

Livia went down first, regardless of Lendra. At the door of the lobby the woman stopped because of the screams of Lendra.

"Listen to me Livia Kaira. I won't stop until I get an apology from you. No matter how you refuse me. How you're gonna kick me out. I'll keep coming until you forgive me."

Livia closed her eyes. Trying to resist tightness and a sense of raging in the chest. Why is everything so complicated. He just wants to solve the Vera factory problem, why should he also meet Lendra all.

"Liv, what's your head?"

Atta's voice broke the silence in that place. Seeing Atta, Lendra immediately patted her forehead slowly. Jesus, why could he forget that there was still Atta who was close to Livia.

"So how many girlfriends are you?"

"Don't be so reckless when you talk. I'm not you the land crocodile."

"Oh come on Via, you know exactly how many women I've actually dated."

Livia growled. The woman turned around and walked towards Lendra who was smiling meaningfully.

"You know exactly how many. Even if you never said love to them. But you dated them....."

"Then you know very well, if my word of love has only ever been spoken to you."

Deg, Livia's heart is pounding. He remembered that very night, Lendra said those sacred words to him.

"I love you, Livia Kaira."
