If I Could Choose
54.

" So now Vella's fired?" manda asked sarcastically, he still could not forgive Vella for what she did to him, even though Lio was ultimately responsible for marrying him.

" It's not that easy to catch Vella's rot."

" Huh?"

" He ran away after your case was exposed."

" What? " Manda was surprised by this fact.

" He wanted to blackmail Saka, under the pretext that he was the one who was tainted on that night at the club. And he claimed that he was the one who was shocked by his chastity and he asked Saka to take responsibility. But reality says something else. It wasn't Saka who was in the room that night, and it could be proved by the CCTV footage that was outside the room in question. Also with whom was the girl who entered with me in the room, and it was you." explained Lio gently, her explanation made Manda speechless. So he is dragged into a conspiracy so that Vella can get Saka's treasure and love, but she is the victim.

" If you weren't there, then what would be my fate now?" ask Manda lirih.

" Dear manda, don't be sad. And don't suppose. You have to remember this, even if we start with something wrong, but you and I will end it well. We will be a happy family, and you will be the mother of my children. I also promised to drag Vella and her crony cronies to jail. And I will protect you with my whole life" Lio said firmly and confidently. Lio's large hand held Manda's hand placed on the desk full of files.

" What does that have to do with your frustration this morning, ma'am?" ask Manda.

" It turns out there are so many holes that Vella and her cronies have made. "

" What's that gonna make us collapse?" ask Manda to worry.

" Ha ha ya hgga too. It's still a long way to get there. But to my horror, he did it while gnawing at investors, too." Clearly Lio while clenching his hands with mounting fury. Indeed Vella's heart is made of what, can be like that. Selling the sanctity of his friend and also throwing him into trouble.

" sthat mean?"

" He seems intent on feeding you to the striped-nose investors. Because that's how it gnaws at rogue investors."

" How do you know, mas?" asked Manda shuddered in horror.

" We reported it to the police. The accusations and evidence of the evidence are less strong, so he can be released on bail with his sugar daddy. While Mr. Burhan, his uncle was arrested with a layered article because there is strong evidence. We're letting this happen because there's less evidence that could have ensnared Vella, uh, back in the club, but as you know, the evidence is less robust as well. Just misappropriation of funds in the company can ensnare him, but it won't be long so maybe he won't be deterred." Lio sighed. He knows how dangerous Vella is, but Manda still just doesn't know. So Lio had to remind Manda.

" So?"

" So if you meet Vella anywhere. Please don't trust him. He has the potential to do something bad alley with you."

" why? What's wrong?"

" Your fault is that you are too beautiful and too seductive, even mine is tempted now." Manda throbbed annoyed at Lio's straightening reply.

" Focus on the meeting alone dear Mr. Lionando." Manda's answer made Lio laugh, where laughter is a rare item that Lio does, but with Manda he easily does it.

Tok tock..

" Login!" lio said with a heavy voice.

" Sir, it's almost meeting time, what about Ashilla?"

"Send in!"

" Good sir." Lita came out to call Ashilla facing Lio. There was a liability that Lio demanded, as the finances in the section were held by Ashilla.

" Excuse me sir." Ashilla's permission to face Lio.

A moment later Lio got up and sat on the sofa with Manda, and with his chin Lio told Ashila to also sit in the same place.

" Sit! Shil, I have read the financial statements you made. How can it slide a lot with reports per division. Especially in the purchasing of materials and tools of hospitality tools?" ask Lio without saying anything.

" I'm sorry sir, that's the report delivered from Mr. Sanjaya's hospitality materials and tools purchasing division to me sir." replied Ashila with a pale face.

" I ask for the original file given by Mr. Sanjaya with you, after the meeting I want you to clean up any division that cheats" said Lio flatly, said, Manda looked only at the cassian to Ashilla who looked pale and trembling, but he knew not his capacity to interfere in this matter.

" Baiik sir!" sahut Ashilla stammered.

" Good, I wait in the meeting room, don't forget to bring the original file and give it to me before the meeting starts. Now you can go back to your cubicle to retrieve the file I asked for." Lio said again.

" I yes sir. Excuse me sir, ma'am!" pamit Ashilla to Lio and Manda. They both just nodded.

After Ashilla came out, Manda only sighed harshly.

" What does this have to do with Vella's corruption?"

" Hu um"

" It's 09.55, you should be ready for the meeting." said Manda.

" Okey, come on!"

" I'm coming too?"

" Yes, you're my personal assistant, baby!" Manda just rolled her eyes lazily, but she kept getting up and followed Lo out into the meeting room. Outside Lita was ready and immediately followed Lio without saying much.

" Where's Alex?" ask Lio to Lita who has been following Manda.

" Alex is ready in the meeting room, sir!" sahut Lita's.

The three of them rushed into the meeting room, where all the division heads as well as Alex welcomed the three newly arrived people.

All of the division heads raised their heads and held each other down when they saw the elbowed Manda and sitting to the right of boss Lio, while Lita sat to the left of Lio, while Alex sat beside Manda.

Lio looked at Alex and with her eye code, asked her to switch positions with Lita. Lio was safe if Manda was sitting side by side with another man.

While the other meeting participants still do not understand who Manda is and what his status is here so he took part in important meetings of all divisions like this. And they were whispering whispered with the meeting participants who were sitting next to him, because they were foreign to the beautiful woman who was sitting next to Lio.

Those who were flattened were men, praising Manda's attractive-looking appearance. This slightly irritated Lio.

" Ahem.." Lio attracted the attention of all the meeting participants with his heavy dehemanya.
