All day long Haura was not concerned in her work, even more so when everyone looked at her with a strange look, making her uncomfortable and wondering inwardly, did they talk about him and Alden in the back.
Even his superiors in the marketing division seemed unfriendly to him, but before they knew if Alden and Haura were close, he seemed friendly. Even the dislike gazes he showed for Haura.
Haura thought that if she had to resolve this misunderstanding, so that everyone would not think of herself as a teaser of her own boss.
As a marketer, Haura was given the task of knowing the product knowledge of all cosmetics produced in the De Beauty company. Because all this time she never beautified herself, Haura just knew there were many types of cosmetics in this world, Haura only knew powder, lipstick, or foundation only, only, to make him astonished to scan one by one the product, even all of it is priced at a fairly expensive price, making Haura once again swallow.
There is also skin care that is claimed to be an anti-aging product. Anti aging itself is a product that aims to slow or reduce the signs of aging that appear on the surface of the skin, even this object is predicted to be made of natural ingredients such as buttermilk, oatmeal, and so on, and olive oil.

After doing her job, and it was time for Haura to go home, when the woman was about to get ready to leave, suddenly her boss gave Haura an extra job, and required Haura to work overtime.
"Haura, can you check all this? I'm asking you to overtime today" said the boss, who has since put his dislike on Haura.
There was no other choice, other than to accept the job, as this was all Haura's duty as an ordinary employee.
Haura decides to contact Alden if he will arrive late, not according to the appointment because there is additional work.
After getting a call from Haura, Alden seemed annoyed, why suddenly the woman worked overtime, even though Alden as CEO never applied the term overtime to his employees, with a feeling of anger—Alden went to the marketing division room to see Haura, the employees who never saw Alden up to their room seemed to flutter and immediately bowed in respect. From a distance Alden saw Haura concentrating with a pile of maps on her desk.
"Hauras... Who asked you to overtime?" Alden's voice blew away Haura's mind, the woman's eyes immediately grabbed the handsome man with a three-piece stelan that made him dazzle.
"My boss, sir." Because in the office, Haura as much as possible uses formal language to keep everyone knowing that Haura is just an employee who is not special to Alden.
But Alden's actions this time made Haura agape, how not—bosnya raise the voice and make noise in the marketing division. Every day Haura is always made to pound on Alden's behavior which he thinks is excessive on Haura.
"Who's the head of the marketing division?!" Alden shouted, making workers who had not come home immediately shuddered in horror, because the CEO who always looked cold, now has wrath.
From a room, a beautiful woman came out, running away from the heels she was wearing, and of course nervous that Alden was calling himself that way.
"I, boss," he said in a soft tone, his head lowered because he was really scared.
"Who told Haura to work overtime?!" tanyakanya.
"I'm sorry... Boss, but we're doing a lot of work, so we're asking the marketing team overtime."
Alden scanned the whole room, but he saw only a few people still at his desk, and it seemed they were not doing any work.
"I see no overtime here, I only see Haura! Have you forgotten that in this company there is no term overtime?!" Alden seemed increasingly emotional.
"Boss... I also don't mind getting overtime from Miss Luna" Haura interrupted Alden's anger.
"Yes, you don't mind, because you're new, Haura! But I need to set your boss's mind straight, that what he's doing is against the company's rules!"
Haura was speechless if this was all already the rules of the company.
"I'm sorry, boss." A soft voice came out from Luna's mouth, Haura's superior.
"If you do anything out of bounds again, then I I'll fire you!" hiss Alden stared intently at Luna who was standing at his feet. "Come Haura! We're home!" Alden dragged Haura's hand, which quickly grabbed her bag and followed Alden's fast-moving steps.

"Are you always like this?!"
"What do you mean?"
"You always accept whatever bad deeds people— have against you," erang the man did not like.
"He's my boss, so I have to obey his orders."
"But I'm the boss! Why don't you obey me?!"
Haura swallowed her own saliva. "You mean?"
"It's been... Forget it!"
Alden got into the car, while Haura stopped outside and did not join Alden.
"Hello... have you forgotten your promise?! I want to talk to you important! Don't you want to come in?" Alden, who was about to enter, came back out because he saw a dazed Haura.
Alden took a deep breath looking at Haura's innocence, which completely left him inexhaustible.
Alden's car went to a fine restaurant in the city center, where he served sumptuous dishes such as spicy tuna with caviar, which were extraordinarily expensive. Haura scanned the entire restaurant, which was parked there was only a row of luxury cars.
Haura walked in following her boss, they were sitting on a private main balcony. Haura felt strange because in her desk area there was no other table besides the two of them.
Haura wanted to open her voice, questioning the matter of this place, but Alden hurriedly said explaining, as if he knew if Haura would ask.
"I rented this balcony, for the both of us," the man joked.
Haura could only clench her lips, as she did not ask, and chose to be silent and not comment.
After all the dishes they ordered came, with a twilight atmosphere that presented a view of the city of Tadpole, Alden opened the conversation.
"Haura, do you know the woman who slapped you the other day?" alden's expression looked serious.
Haura nodded while scooping the spicy tuna with the caviar before her.
"She's the girl I'm getting engaged to, but—" Alden seemed to stop talking.
"But what?" Haura grew curious about what Alden really wanted from her.
"But, I don't like her because she's a spoiled, unruly woman, and all of her actions seem emotional and not classy."
Then if she's a spoiled woman, what does it have to do with Haura, that woman is very confused by the thoughts of the rich, if she wants to yes, should marry. If you don't like it, just refuse. Haura was still casually hearing the sentence after time that was spoken from Alden's lips.
"My grandfather and Grandma said, if I refuse this engagement, I should at least have a lover. Since I don't have one yet, I'm asking you to be a contract lover, until my grandparents let me go not to match me with Iris" Alden casually concluded.
Haura coughed at Alden's words which made her choke.
