My Culun CEO
Engagement Deal

The atmosphere of the hotel ballroom has begun to be crowded with invited guests present. Only close relatives were invited by the two families. There are also some business relationships that are quite close. Because indeed this is a request from both brides-to-be who will be engaged tonight.

Roy and Lian, as well as Adi Jaya and Sandra welcomed the guests. They talk and throw jokes at each other.

Surely these two business empire owners will be more and more in control of many businesses after the matchmaking of their children tonight. A business matchmaking that is quite profitable for both parties.

Inside the hotel room, Sheila looked at herself in front of the mirror. This time she appeared in a very elegant soft pink dress. Showing his smooth back. Her long hair is neatly carried by leaving a few strands to give the impression of glamour.

Several times this girl took a breath and exhaled slowly. His heart is not okay at the moment. But he tried hard because it was for his parents.

A knock at the door made him look. He immediately stepped up and opened the door.

It was seen that the figure that would bind her in an engagement relationship was standing looking at her with a look of admiration. He smiled at the girl who was about to become his fiancee.

"You're so beautiful, Shei" she said with unblinking eyes.

Sheila did not respond. He even turned his face away.

"What's coming here?" ask Sheila ketus.

"Oh yes, I forgot because I was too amazed by your beauty." The man who was none other than Nathan scratched his nape.

Sheila rolled her eyes lazily. Since when is a Nathan Avicenna smart to fight? Her thought.

"Our family is waiting. They asked me to pick you up" Nathan said.

"All right, wait a minute. I get ready first" Sheila replied and then closed the door.

Nathan who thought he was going to come inside was just stunned by Sheila's different attitude.

Sheila opened the door soon.

"Shei, why close the door? I'd like to..."

"There's something we need to talk about!" sheila said firmly.

Nathan frowned in wonder. "What's wrong?"

"We have to make a deal."

Nathan glares. "okay! What deal? Didn't we make it before?"

"really. I just want to make it clear. We have agreed not to publish this engagement in front of the crowd and journalists. Then I want to add points. I also want the whole office to have no idea about this relationship."

"Did?!"

"I know you still have someone by your side. Celia's. She's your lover, right? That's why you made this deal. You don't want her to know that you've been betrothed to me" Sheila's circus.

Nathan rounded his eyes to hear Celia's name from Sheila's lips.

"From the beginning you've been planning all this. But this is good for us. Because I also have a lover. And I don't want her to know about this matchmaking. So, we're even!" Sheila crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"Shei, I can explain everything!" said Nathan.

"Enough! You said everyone was waiting for us. Then let's go!" Sheila walked out on Nathan.

The man was stunned for a while then followed Sheila's footsteps.

"Shei, wait!" Nathan blocked Sheila's arm. The girl immediately brushed it off.

"Get your hands off!" sheila murmur.

They took the elevator in silence. They're headed to the hotel's ballroom on the 5th floor.

When the elevator door opened, Nathan immediately thrust his arm at Sheila. She codes that Sheila should hug Nathan's arm. Of course they have to keep acting until the end.

"Don't geer! It's just acting!" sheila sarcasm.

They walked together until they arrived in front of the ballroom. The door opened and all the invited guests greeted them with a standing ovation.

"Well, look at them! They are so good!" Lian unceasingly praised her son and future daughter-in-law.

"Yes, Deck. They were meant to be together" Sandra said.

Nathan and Sheila make their way to the grand stage as the engagement is about to begin. A host hosted the engagement of the two sultan families.

Stay at the top of the event tonight, which is the exchange of rings for these two happy lovebirds. Erratum! Happy parents. While the two lovebirds only reviewed their fake smiles.

"Aw! Slow down a little dong, baby..." Nathan is still trying to tease Sheila.

"Oops, sorry. Your acting is good too Mr Nathan Avicenna!" Sheila turned to Nathan.

"Shey, i..."

"Easy! Just enjoy the party. I want to go to the bathroom first!" Sheila got off the stage and headed for the ladies' room.

Sheila looked at her perfect performance tonight. But his heart is not perfect. He held back his tears. He doesn't want to be weak now. Why is she crying too? Is he disappointed in Nathan who turns out to have a lover? Sheila alone knew what she was feeling at this moment.

Sheila came out of the toilet and Nathan was waiting for her there.

"You? Why are you here?" ask Sheila ketus.

"Shei, please listen to my explanation first!"

"What else would you like to explain? Everything is clear. You even mentioned his name in your sleep. That means you always keep it in your heart." Sheila pointed at Nathan's chest with her index finger.

"All your sweetness towards me is fake! You think I'm a toy, huh?! You think you won because you made my heart beat? Fuck you, Nathan!" Sheila left Nathan soon. But the man won't let Sheila go before everything is clear.

"Shey!" Nathan summed up Sheila's face. The girl was already glazed.

"Celia is nobody. He's just..."

"What! It's nobody but you call it in your sleep!"

"You jealous, Shei?"

"No! Not at all! I just can't believe you lied to me. Now we continue all these games until I get a good time to call off this engagement and I'll bring my girlfriend in front of my family!" Sheila brushed aside Nathan's hand that encapsulated his face. He'll be out of there soon. He did not want to cry in front of the man.

Nathan growled in annoyance. He rubbed his face and ruffled his hair.

"When did I mention Celia's name? He said in my sleep? Why would he know? Goddamnit! Things haven't been going well lately!" nathan's inner frustration.

While on the toilet side, someone was listening to all the Nathan and Sheila debates. The man frowned confused.

"Sheila has a lover? Since when? And who is that guy?" the inner person wonders then passes away.

The engagement party is over. The guests began to say goodbye. Now there are only two nuclear families who are still living to spend their Sunday nights.

They still chatted casually with laughter that sometimes echoed. It seems like tonight is a happy night for parents. But not for the two lovebirds who just changed their status to get engaged.

Sheila chose to be on the balcony of the ballroom. He wants to breathe air tonight. His heart was tight as he stared at the ring on his ring finger.

"Shei, are you here?" Someone put his suit on Sheila's body. But the girl refused it.

"It's cold, put it on!"

"Sister Danny? Brother hasn't come home yet?" ask Sheila who is now dealing with her brother's confidant.

"I've been looking for you since. Why even here?"

"It's okay, brother. I just need some fresh air!"

"Shei, if there's anything you want to tell me, you can tell me. Am I not like your brother?"

Sheila looked at Danny with condensed eyes.

"Sister..." The girl shed her tears.

Quickly Danny immediately brought his little girl into his warm embrace. He rubbed Sheila's trembling back.

From the direction of the balcony door, Nathan clenched his hands to see his fiancee in the arms of another man. He wanted to go in and take Sheila away from there. But he also remembered that he couldn't possibly make a fuss while there were still old people here.
