"You mean ... what?"
Vale was a little nervous. On one hand, Riu is sincere. But on the other hand, consider Riu just toying. Yes ... still too short their marriage, it seems impossible Riu save the taste for her.
"What do you think I mean?" Riu asked back, and suddenly made Vale even more excited.
"If I had known it would not have asked you." Vale increases intonation, to cover the growing nervousness. Don't let Riu realize that.
However, raising intonation also did not make Riu want to answer. He instead smiled as he shifted the subject, which could not be denied anymore.
"It seems like your mood is bad. Let's just go to sleep!"
Although not satisfied with Riu's answer, but Vale did not speak anymore. Free. Finally, somewhat objecting, he prepared for sleep. Damn, I can't.
Throughout the night Riu's words kept ringing in her memory, and it made her a dilemma. Sometimes Vale feels flowery, but sometimes it is also afraid. It might not be as he imagined.
Sighing and exhaling deeply, Vale often stared at Riu, who looked calm in his eyes. Doesn't the man know that Vale can't sleep because of it?
Ahh, sucks!
The next day, Vale's face was slightly sour, the effect of not sleeping all night. Dizzy head and not eager to do anything. If not required to work, he would sleep all day to replace overnight.
Unlike Vale, last night Riu actually slept very well. There is a lot of calm that he gets, especially in terms of romance. The more he came to believe Vale was the best choice for his life.
"Today I will fight for our future, until you are sure that standing by my side is the most appropriate choice" inner Riu that morning, before the two of them go to their respective workplaces.
Riu will go to his own office, to discuss his performance so far with his family and shareholders. Vale, meanwhile, will be working as usual at Victory Office.
________
The meeting room was quite spacious, already filled with upper class people. Jason sat in the leadership seat, while Riu and Annisa were next to him. Theo, Vir, and Camelia were also present. Not to forget the shareholders who number dozens of people, also participated. Each occupies a place to voice opinions, worthy of Riu being the owner and leader of the company. Jason retired and enjoyed his old age.
"Good morning, dear Father and Mother. I thank you for attending this meeting earlier. I as the owner of the company, as well as the current meeting leader, will invite you and your Mother to discuss the transfer of ownership." Jason spoke with great authority.
The meeting participants listened carefully, especially when Jason continued his speech and explained that Riu was the one he had previously nominated to be the next owner. However, agree or not, each has the right to voice an opinion.
"I object if Mr. Riu becomes the next owner. So far, there has been no significant performance from him. In addition .. sorry, physical limitations will also hamper work, and it will affect the development of the company." Deon—, one of the shareholders involved in Riu's accident, voiced his disapproval.
After making a lot of money from Annisa, now he is willing to work together again. Emitting the woman's desire to become the owner of the company.
"I agree with Mr. Deon. Not to be demeaning, but .. the fact that the company also needs a deft leader. In this case, intelligence alone is not enough, it must be balanced with physical. Mr. Jason, while there are other candidates, I don't think it's a good decision to have Mr. Riu. Here are Mrs Annisa and Mrs Camelia, who have proven successful in developing companies abroad. Why not just pick one of them, sir?" timpal Farhan—other shareholder who also stands on Annisa's side.
After the two men spoke, there were many whispers between them. Some were affected by the talk just now. Some of them still support Riu. During this time, his role is quite a lot in the development of the company. Although he did not walk alone due to physical limitations, but the brain of all that was Riu.
Intelligence is the most important point, it should not be ignored.
Many speculate that Riu deliberately married a contract in order to get a chance to own assets. Of course it is not a commendable behavior, it does not reflect a sincere leadership spirit.
"Honored Father and Mother, let me speak." Riu interrupted quietly, not caring even though Annisa and Camelia had already reviewed the winning smile.
"On marriage .. There is no such thing as contract marriage or the like. We are married sincerely. I purposely hid the relationship for the safety of my wife. As the woman I love, she is my weakness. I don't want to put him in danger, so his identity is still hidden. And for my performance so far .. I've asked my right hand, Baron, to recap it. I hope that Father and Mother can reassess after seeing the recap," he continued.
Only a few nodded in admiration, the rest sneered and secretly considered it a joke, especially her brother and sister-in-law.
However, the Baron was the same as Riu, unaffected by it all. Full of confidence he got up and came forward. Stand near the screen to explain the recap he has made since long ago.
'Susa Riu went to the top. I don't want to know how you fiddled with his car, the important thing is that he had a terrible accident. Half the money will be paid off if it works.'
All eyes were on the screen, which now featured the figures of Annisa and Delon. Both of them made transactions to harm Riu.
"Riu, what the fuck! You want to defame me, huh!" annisa snapped as she moved from her seat.
However, Riu's supporters held him back. They also asked Baron to continue the video.
The longer the video plays, the more rowdy the room becomes. Riu's supporters are almost overwhelmed because now not only Annisa is angry, but also Camelia, Theo, Vir, Delon, and Farhan. In fact, Jason was also involved in telling the Baron to stop everything. She couldn't see the pieces of the video that showed just how cunning Annisa and Camelia were, along with their husbands.
The four people deliberately lured Riu to go to the top. Then, pay Delon to tinker with his car. Until then, Riu had a great accident when he came down from the top. Due to the brake blong, the car he was driving fell into the abyss. Fortunately, Riu jumped. If not, it would be deceased by now.
In the video it is also shown that they do that to gain control of all assets. They are not willing if Riu comes to get the inheritance even if only a little. The reason was recorded clearly, namely because they were born from a different womb. In that great crime, quite a number of people were involved, including Jason's right-hand man and several important people in the company.
"Riu___"
"I still keep Papa's promise. Anyone who cheats to get assets will be removed from the family list. No more assets for them. Papa didn't forget, did he?" riu said while playing the recording when his father spoke to him, the other day.
Jason sculpting. While all that was involved, it was deathly pale in place. Because it is not only the family who witnessed it, but also the shareholders, who will surely now side with Riu.
"That's why I hid the marriage. I don't want my wife to experience the same thing. It's too painful" Riu said after the video ended.
"All of that is not true. You deliberately defamed us, Riu!" snapped Theo. His breath is hunting. If not held by two men, he would have hit Riu that second as well.
"The evidence is clear and you still say this is not true, Brother? All right, if this is what you consider engineering. Come to the police station, tell them I defamed you. But, one you should know. Jordi, Papa's former right-hand man, has testified to your crimes, as well as his own involvement" Riu replied.
Farhan was terrified, "What do you mean? Why Jordi ... Jordi___"
"I mean very clear. I brought this case to the green table. Now the police are at the door, carrying special bracelets for you. Greet well yes," Riu said with a slanted smile.
Seriate...
