Bagas who was then next to his feet was resting on the ground and next to him was still in the car so confused, his boss was really heartless, had no conscience, no conscience, and it doesn't have the protective instincts of a man. Wasn't accompanying a girl waiting for this late-night invitation a commonplace thing, then why was she so angry. Didn't Aresh think, what if if mommy and her little sister, Yura, were in the same position as Ruby. Both of them are women who are very dear and loving on this earth more than anything else. Doesn't Aresh think so.
"But, Young Master."
"Road or down? Choose where?" aresh said with great emphasis, which actually sounds like a threat.
Hearing the choice Aresh made for him, it felt like Bagas was helpless at this moment, the man looked at Ruby with a regretful look, as if saying, "I'm sorry, Secretary Ruby."
Ruby smiled forced. "It's okay, Mr. Bagas, just take Mr. Aresh home. You don't have to worry about me, Robby's close to here, coming soon."
With a heavy heart Bagas again closed the car door. The man restarted the engine of his car without even a hint of taking his eyes off Ruby.
"Hurry and call me if anything happens," Bagas said before driving off, and Ruby responded with a smile to the man's words.
Seeing Aresh's attitude, of course Ruby became sad, upset, and hurt in the man.
"Basic men have no heart, no feelings" he murmured. Which is still an unsolved question to this day in Ruby's head, why does Aresh hate her so much? What's wrong? If only because Aresh had been hurt by other women, then why Ruby also had to bear the consequences of the actions of other women. Isn't this unfair.
Just now the luxury car drove away leaving Ruby for several tens of meters, but Bagas had already made a video call to the girl.
"Eh, why did Mr. Bagas suddenly call me?" murmured Ruby, then answered the man's call. "Hello."
"Don't turn off the phone until your sister comes, I just want to make sure that you're safe and well there" Bagas said.
"Good, sir." Ruby smiled, for a long time her heart could melt if the man continued to treat her like this, and somehow Bagas now looks very handsome in Ruby's eyes, though what appeared on the screen of his phone was only the chin and nostrils of the man because Bagas' phone was placed in the lap of the man.
Meanwhile, in other places, Aresh just grieved at the behavior of his assistant and secretary. Not long after, Ruby finally told Bagas that his sister had come to pick him up.
"Be careful on the road. You're the only one who turned off the call because I'm still driving," Bagas said before their video call connection was cut off.
Bagas smiled. "She's a sweet and kind girl, Young Master."
"So you like it?" aresh asked for a second time, but Bagas only responded with a smile.
Elsewhere, in Robby's car.
"Who is that man, brother? Is she your boyfriend?" robby asked curiously, because after Ruby was heartbroken 2 years ago, this was the first time she saw her brother was close to the opposite sex.
"Not just co-workers" replied Ruby, smiling, which made Robby suspicious.
"Don't you like that guy?" ask Robby to make sure.
"Okay, Brother doesn't know either. He was a very kind person and was considerate of Big Brother, Rob, in contrast to Big Brother's boss who was very cold, fierce, and annoying. Ish, just remembering it makes Brother so upset," Ruby growled at the end of her sentence. The heart that had flowered because it remembered the attention of Bagas immediately became upset because it remembered Aresh's rough treatment so far.
"really? So it turns out that all this time Big Brother's boss was fierce to Brother?" ask Robby.
Ruby nodded. "Loh, isn't he your friend's daughter, is he? Aunt Naura's son, right? As far as I know Aunt Naura is a very kind and gentle person, why can her son be fierce like that?" ask Robby in wonder.
"Eitherway. If it's not Aunt Naura herself who introduced her son to Sister directly, sometimes Brother also does not believe that he is the son of Aunt Naura."
"Or not, his ferociousness was down from his father, Brother," said Robby and then chuckled, while Ruby only spread her shoulders.

"HATCHI! HATCH!"
"Young Master, do you want to stop by the pharmacy first before returning home? From now on you just keep sneezing, do not-don't you want the flu," said Bagas concerned about the health of his boss.
"Hem, may be," replied Aresh.
