Just Being a Doll Wife
19. Meet the President

The drizzle that fell from the sky, as well as adding gloom today for Merylin, the sky blackened. It's still four in the afternoon, but it's like it's in the afternoon. Due to the overcast sky, his heart was increasingly overwhelmed with anxiety. The girl stood waiting for Serge to pick her up near the crossroads, a little away from the bus stop.

Merilin didn't want to, until a friend of her office saw her get into Serge's car. The car that Kak Serge often used was Mr. Rion's car, friends in the office even memorized the license plate.

The girl bowed, squeezing her fingers. Remember Serge's phone call this morning.

"May, have you memorized the script I gave you yesterday? that's the story of your meeting with Rion." Serge's sister called this morning.

Usually Merilin was always pounding happily whenever she saw Kak Serge's name in her phone call, however, some time now, being honest whenever Kak Serge called she was always agitated and scared. Because right now, every time Serge calls is in touch with Mr. Rion. Never talk about anything personal or just ask for news.

And sure enough, Merylin immediately got a panic attack after Serge's next sentence was spoken.

"The president wants to meet you in person, Mei, he will meet you without a mistress." Serge's voice trembled, hinting at the threatening danger. A personal meeting with Mr. Rion's father without his mother, huh, just hearing about it was already scary for Mei. "May, you're still listening to me right?"

"So, just keep going, I hear you."

"All right, I'll explain yes. Later you will answer like what was written in the script yes if the President asked. And..." Serge was silent for a moment. "Please show your sincerity and sincerity Mei, the President of a very sensitive and careful person, it could be that the questions that come out of his mouth will trap you later. So, I hope you're careful in answering. Think before you answer yes."

I'm afraid of Merylin's murmur.

"I'll accompany you to meet the President, but there I can't help Mei. If the president tells me to come out, I have to go out."

That is, it all depends on you May. That's what Serge's words mean.

Merilin who received the phone on the emergency stairs, gripped the iron ladder. Is he able to do it. Sitting face to face with Mr. Rion alone felt like sitting on thorny grass, and now having to meet the President as well.

Merilin momentarily lost the energy to get up and return to her study. He sat down on the stairs with his head bowed for ten minutes.

Tin.tin...

The sound of the car horn woke Merilin from the daydream. Serge opened the windshield and waved his hand. Merilin immediately smiled, waving her hand as well while walking quickly towards the car.

"Sorry Mei, I'm late."

"No, it's only five minutes."

The girl lowered her head, tidying up her actual hair that was already neatly tied. Seeing Kak Serge still made his heart flutter. Even though he already knew that he had been rejected before even expressing feelings. But his heart was not conscious either.

"You okay Mei? Sorry yes, I cannot refuse the president's order." The car drove back.

"So, I understand. And I'm not papa, sooner or later we have to meet."

Merilin glanced at Serge beside her. Today Serge finished his haircut. She wears the same perfume as always. The girl even knew what perfume Serge was wearing.

"May.."

"So Brother."

"Did Brama know?"

Ah, I think he's gonna ask what.

"Not Brother, maybe this weekend, I'll say it when I meet in person."

Discussing Brama always turns off the momentary chatter between them. Mei does not hate her brother, but she rarely discusses her brother.

Serge dispels awkwardness by encouraging and advising what to do in May when meeting the President.

...🍓🍓🍓...

He was a stern and somewhat frightening person, more sinister than Rion. But that's because he's a good father and loves his son. I hope you don't take heart, if later her words offend you Mei. The final decision remains in Rion's hands.

Actually, neither the master nor the mistress hoped that Rion would get married soon. However, all the matchmaking that the mistress arranged did not even fail, but it never started. Being bored with the demands is why Rion wants to get married soon.

Serge's explanation was not to make Merylin's heart relieved, he was getting tense when entering a private room in a fancy restaurant. The female servant who led them in lowered her head and walked out of the room.

The president is alone in the room. Merilin looked at the personal secretary of the President outside the entrance earlier.

"Good afternoon Sir, I'm coming with Merylin, May, introduce yourself."

Serge salutes first, then touches Mei's elbow to speak. The president observed the girl in front of him closely. From head to toe. Assess the physicality of the girl in front of him. From the first impression of seeing Merylin, her suspicion grew even more.

"Good afternoon Sir, my name is Merilin Anastasya. I'm your employee as editor-in-chief of Andez Corporation's corporate magazine." Merilin spoke smoothly.

He's been practicing over and over again, in the bathroom this afternoon.

The president has not yet reacted. Still observing. The man muttered.

Impossible, Rion liked the girl in front of him. The president knew the girl, the girl who had left Rion and married another man. He even engaged many people to gather the information of the girl.

When compared to these two women, it feels like the girl in front of him is very lame to be juxtaposed with the woman who has hurt Rion.

One was tall, with long straight black hair that liked to stroke her hair falling on her shoulders. This one, already tiny, petite, her hair curled brown again. They're very different.

From where this girl could be called the substitute for the woman, they were clearly different. That is the President's conclusion from his physical observation alone.

If Merylin wrongly replied, she would also run out.

"Sit down." The president pointed the chair in front of him at Merilin. The girl thanked me and sat down. Put his trembling hand on his lap. "I've gathered all the information about you."

Deg. Deg. Deg.

What that means is that the President knows about my family's mounting debt. Merilin did not dare to raise her head.

"Now explain to me how my son Rion fell in love with you and got you married."

Merilin's memory was immediately focused on the script of the love drama made by Kak Serge. Say it sincerely Mei, say it with sincerity.

Speak with stammering, while occasionally taking a pause in breath. Merilin conveyed the chronology of her meeting with Rion.

"Why do you like my son? is it because he can help you pay off your father's debt?"

Serge by the door seemed most panicked by the President's question.

"Sister is warm-hearted." Merilin raised her head slightly, for the President to see the honesty in her eyes. "Therefore I fell in love with Rion's sister."

Wahhh Mei, you have already improvised calling Rion older brother, Serge is proud of Merylin's acting ability.

"He always gave me the courage not to give up on life. He smiles every time we meet. He's also very cool at work." Merylin's face completely blushed. "That's why I love my sister."

Yes, I love Brother Ge, the warm-hearted man who is always next to your son.

Mei, you're actually talking about who! Serge began to pay close attention to the reaction of the President. When he saw the President smiling Serge immediately stroked his chest in relief. The man is weak if anyone praises his son.

My son is indeed of that nature, the president murmured, long ago, before he felt betrayal. Did you really make it back.

"Merylin..."

"He is Master."

"I'll pay off your father's debt, but, leave my son." The President's voice seriously sounded, the man was testing Merilin. "You don't deserve my son."

Aaaa! Does he not believe. Serge was the most panicked. He was even willing to walk towards Merylin to help explain. But just a step of his foot stopped.

"Hiks." Merilin lowered her face while putting the back of her hand on the end of her eyes. "I didn't expect that Sir, Hiks. I love brother. If I had to part with my brother, not because you gave me money. But, if you push me away, then I will go away from you. Although my heart aches, but seeing my brother happy, that's enough for me."

Seeing the girl in front of him cry the President was stunned. The man was weak against tears. He doesn't like to see tears of sadness. Not only did his wife cry, but she did not like to see women cry. Especially those who cry because of it.

"Ehmm, ahemm."

Merilin wiped the tip of her eyes, and stopped sobbing.

"Sorry sir, sorry, I cried."

The president shook his hand. Then look at Merylin's face carefully. The girl in front of him looked sincere. But, this was still too strange the president thought, because Merylin did not look like the type of woman Rion liked this was what still made her suspicious.

"Ge."

Serge immediately half-run over.

"Did he know about Rion's past, about that woman."

Women, women who, what Mr. Rion has a woman he loves. Where is that woman now?

Merilin who was just listening recorded the conversation in her head.

"You know, sir, Rion doesn't like to bring up the incident. I don't think Mei knows either."

I wouldn't dare to say it without Rion's permission either. Serge had been willing to shout against the order, if the President asked him to explain the matter in May.

Serge was silent again, as the President spoke in a resolutely intimidating voice.

"I'll believe your words today, but, in the future, if you use my son and hurt him, I'm sorry, son, that I can't be nice to you anymore."

"Ba. good sir."

"Prepare to meet Rion's mother. And, save our meeting today for you, lest Rion know I'm calling you."

"Ba. good sir."

Merilin honestly felt relieved, like the bridle around her neck was broken and could breathe normally. The president was not as scary as he imagined.

"I'll keep an eye on you, so watch your every action and talk."

No, he's very scary. Merilin was correcting what she had said.
