Two weeks after Mr. company's birthday. Carl, Belle spends time in her apartment. Designing summer clothes, continuing his hobby of playing computer games, and every Saturday, week Alech comes to invite Belle to play board games. Since Alech often comes to the apartment, Billy so take time on weekends just to play, yes.. Billy loves board games. Castle of Burgundy, Catan and Istanbul. Billy always charges Alech new games.
Belle's life has become more colorful since she got to know Alech, many interesting things Alech gave her. He gets more comfortable with Alech, without realizing Belle is sure to fall in love with Alech.
Today Alech came to pick up Belle, and he invited her to eat at one of the beachside restaurants.
"Are you ready?" Alech rushed to his feet after seeing Belle come out of his room.
"Let's go... I'm hungry, hahahaha..." Belle put on her shoes and followed Alech from behind.
As usual, they left on Alech's bike. It didn't take long for them to arrive at the restaurant Alech had already reserved. They really enjoyed the food. The restaurant that sells various food menus around the world is very famous for its original taste, quite commensurate with the price.
"After this let's take a look at the beach and who knows there is a cozy cafe to enjoy ea cream." Alech called the waiters to give the bill.
Belle simply nodded, a sign that she agreed to Alech's invitation.
They walked along the beach, not quite hot but it felt warm, the blowing wind felt fresh.
The ea cream cafe that Alech was talking about was not crowded enough, the colorful cafe like ice cream made people who saw feel comfortable to be there. The two-story cafe with a balcony roofed with a vine adds to the cool atmosphere.
"Belle, I like you." Alech stared intensely at Belle.
"Ohuk... Sorry, what did I just hear?" Belle chokes on ice cream hearing Alech's sudden statement.
"I like you Bell, wanna be my girl?" Alech grabbed Belle's hand and clasped tightly.
"Alech, I like you too, and yes I want to be your girlfriend." Belle's face flushed red, answering nervously making her look cute.
Alech kissed Belle's hand. "Thank you, I've been looking forward to this moment."
Belle just smiled at Alech's words. An awkward feeling enveloped the atmosphere, this was the first time Belle had a boyfriend, so she did not know what to do.
"Honey, my friend is coming here, he saw my bike parked in the front parking lot, so he wants to join us. What say?"
"It's ok Alech, I'm just glad we got a bunch of ice cream."
"Hahaha.you're so sweet. Ok I'll tell my friend."
Alech sent a message to his friend, and soon he arrived.
"Honey.this is Daniel, my old college friend." Alech introduced the two of them.
"Niel, this is Isabella. Ummm. she's my boyfriend."
"Hi Daniel, I'm Isabella call me Belle."
The three of them talk like old friends, especially Belle is a person who is easy to adapt to new people.

Mr Office. Carl
The board of directors meeting of the shareholders is held as usual, after the anniversary of the company. Legitimate shareholders consist of ten members, including Belle.
" We managed to raise the company's stock very drastically, the woman was really talented and maybe she could be our executive employee." In the spirit of one of the shareholders gave a suggestion that Belle become an employee in the company.
Mr. Carl smiled proudly.
" He was our biggest shareholder, replacing his mother. She's just like her mother, no doubt."
The shareholders were shocked, who would have thought that Belle had a big influence for now like her late mother.
" Then why didn't he come by this time? Or maybe he doesn't know he's the biggest shareholder yet?" The other shareholders asked for Belle's absence.
"I've told him, and he hasn't contacted me, he said that he needs time to study the company, I understand his decision, it's a new world for him" said Mr. Carl is relaxed.
Mr. Jhon stared cynically at Mr. Carl. Mr. Jhon is one of the third largest shareholders after Belle and Mr. Jhon. Carl, he also has a son who plunged into the world of fashion, Hera works in the company of Mr. Carl and he also have his own boutique, but Hera does not make or design clothes, he asks his employees to do it all and is claimed to be the work of Hera.
Mr. Jhon feels Belle is a rival of his beloved son, and considers that Belle is a threat to Hera's business. Mr. Jhon feels unsettled by Belle's presence in the fashion world. Along the way home, his head feels dizzy, looking for ideas so that Belle does not become the center of attention more than Hera. For now Hera is the number 1 designer in the city of London, of course with the help of Mr. Jhon, all cunning ways are done to give the name to his son.
Mr. Carl knows all that Mr. Jhon has done for his son, but he does not care, as long as Mr. Jhon does not harm the company or disturb its people. But now Mr. Carl is worried, I don't know what Mr. Jhon will do to disturb Belle in the future.
"I called you here on purpose, because the shareholders were too noisy to ask your absence at the shareholders' meeting this morning" said Mr. Carl told Belle who was sitting on the gray sofa.
"I'm sorry Mr. I just finished studying the documents you provided."
"Then, when will you be ready to run the company?"
"Tomorrow, from tomorrow I will take all my responsibilities in the company." Belle answered firmly.
Smile Mr. Carl expands, "Good, I'm sure you can work well and I hope you keep designing to enliven the fashion world. Because it's pretty hard for you in the future. There's one shareholder named Jhon, he's a cunning old man, and Hera is his favorite son, you must have heard about Hera, those two people you have to watch out for, father and son are both troublemakers, he has shown dislike for your presence and considers you a threat to Hera's career, but don't be afraid, I'm on your side, just tell me if you need help."
" Don't worry Mr. Carl I'll handle them if they do me any cunning, I've prepared for such a possibility."
Belle already knows the ins and outs of the shareholders to the family, indeed the most dangerous is Mr. Jhon who as the brains of crime so that his son can not be defeated.
