Married for Trust
CHAPTER 23.
By late afternoon, Andre and Nanda's secretary were getting ready to head to the Hotel where they were going to have a meeting with some important clients.
Along the way he seemed unfocused as he continued to glance at his phone which attracted the attention of secretary Nanda who was sitting next to him.
Before leaving earlier he also had several times to contact Nazhwa number but missed also which makes him worried.
If this meeting was not very important for the development of his company, maybe he would cancel and make an appointment at a later time or at least have secretary Nanda go accompany Nazhwa at his home.
What was Nazhwa doing at home, so that until the afternoon he still did not answer his call?
"From this moment I noticed Mr. Andre like he was not focused on driving. If I may let me replace Mr. Andre drive, and Mr. Andre can rest behind maybe you are tired so do not focus on driving, danger is also like that sir." secretary Nanda reminded.
Andre turned his head for a while staring at his secretary, "No, Nanda. I don't feel exhausted at all. I just circulated Nazhwa, from this afternoon until now he didn't answer my call. Did she go see her friend again and forget to bring her phone? Said Andre.
Secretary Nanda silently seemed to think digesting Andre's speech.
If what Andre thinks is, Nazhwa goes to meet his friends and doesn't bring a cell phone. Another thing with the secretary Nanda, he was worried something happened to Nazhwa. What else his wife orasa was sick and some time ago doctors suggested to wash the blood which means his Nazhwa disease is getting worse.
"I will try to contact Ms. Nazhwa" secretary Nanda said after a moment of silence. He pulled his phone out of his bag.
Andre nodded in agreement to his secretary's proposal.
Nanda's secretary tries to contact Nazhwa, calling connected but missed. He tried again, but the result was the same. Until several times Nanda secretary continued to try to contact Nazhwa and the results were still the same.
Nanda's secretary was really worried, what if something happened to Nazhwa alone.
"How, is there an answer?" ask Andre.
"Unanswered, sir. Though I have tried it repeatedly." replied Nanda secretary. "Sir, if Mr. Andre should just go home and his meeting was delayed first. I was worried something happened to Ms. Nazu." she said giving advice.
Andre seemed to think for a moment, then a moment later shook his head slowly. "You know for yourself this meeting is very important, so how can I go home. It's the same as risking the development of the company. If there is anything with the company, you employees will also be affected. Already, maybe Nazhwa was out going to meet his friend and he forgot to bring his cell phone." Andre. He tried to suppress a little of his ego in the name of the company. Though in fact he also felt worried why Nazhwa did not answer his call.
'But if Nazhwa went to see his friend, why didn't he get permission. Her usual she always permits any going out even though I always ignore her.' Andre said in his heart.
Secretary Nanda was silent, he could not argue with his superiors. But in his heart he cursed Andre who he thought was more concerned with property than his own wife.
Along the way to the hotel where they will meet with clients both Andre and secretary Nanda continue to wonder in their hearts about Nazhwa not answering their phone calls.
Arriving at a five-star hotel, Andre and secretary Nanda head straight to the room where his clients are waiting there.
After being in the room, Andre and Secretary Nanda were greeted warmly by his clients, except for a man who was about the same age as Andre looked at Andre cynically and then moved to look at the secretary Nanda who was standing next to Andre.
'Wow, after the secretary who was in his courtship died, it turns out that he now has a new secretary who is younger and beautiful.' said the man in his heart.
"Please sit down, Mr. Andre." a middle-aged man who was one of Andre's clients today invited Andre to sit down, then followed by Nanda's secretary who also sat beside his boss.
Andre's gaze met the gaze of the man sitting opposite to his. Andre still remembers well with the man, he was Alex, he said, the jerk who used to always tease Shalwa even almost once harassed Shalwa in the meeting room in his office when Shalwa first came to the meeting room. Luckily, one of the OBs passed by in front of the meeting room and heard Shalwa's cry for help and the OB immediately reported to him.
"Your secretary this time is more beautiful and young, Mr. Andre. It turned out that quickly Mr. Andre moved on with...
" I'm sorry, dear Mr. Alex. Here we will only discuss what we should discuss, not discuss things that have long passed." sidelines Andre with great emphasis.
Nanda's secretary looked at Andre and the man named Alex alternately, with a questionable look especially when he saw Andre looking at the man named Alex with a hostile look.
His other clients could only fall silent without daring to chim in. They know very well how the character of Andre and Alex who both do not like in his affairs.
"Alright Mr. Andre, but after the meeting was over I wanted to offer more profitable cooperation" said Alex then moved to look at the secretary Nanda with a gaze that made the secretary Nanda shudder in horror.
"I'm not interested in your offer at all" said Andre arrogantly, of course he understood the meaning of Alex's words. From his gaze Andre knows if Alex wants Nanda's secretary just as he used to be with Shalwa.
"Owh, the look of Mr. Andre wants to have fun on his own huh? I heard Mr. Andre is married, what Mr. Andre's wife does not suspect, "Alex glanced at Secretary Andre.
And this time Nanda's secretary also understood the purpose of the man named Alex's words.
"Sorry Mr. Alex, you better throw away your bad thoughts. Because Mr. Andre's wife and I are good friends, even we are like Brother and Sister" secretary Nanda asserted.
"Owhh, a very clever game, neat and elegant. Anyone will be fooled." said Alex then laugh, he seemed to drop Andre's pride in front of the clients.
