The Neo car that passed through Rihan, slightly reduced his speed. Elle who sensed that then asked Neo.
"What's up, honey?"
"Nothing." Neo nodded slowly. The man glanced at the rearview mirror to see the two-wheeled vehicle a few meters back there.
"That motor, the license plate is the same. Was he the one I met back then?" Neo asked in his heart to recall the incident several months ago on the riverbank where the resort was built at that time.
Neo until now did not know who he met at that time and talked to him. Neo is also curious and eager to meet that person.
Indeed Rihan today just using another motorbike is not as usual, so Neo just saw it. Not to mention, Neo has never entered into Rihan's garage so he does not know if the owner of the motorcycle is Rihan. Usually the vehicle to be used, has been removed from the garage by the guards of the mansion.
"Why stop?" Elle asked in surprise because they had no need of any kind, so they had to stop.
"I want to meet someone. Wait here, "Neo took off the seat belt ready to get out of the car.
Just as the man was about to open the car door, Rihan's sports bike was already speeding so that Neo could no longer meet him.
"I wonder who he is. May we meet again," Inner Neo and sighed for a while then re-attached the seat belt and drove the car away from there.
"Who is he?" Ask Elle curiously.
"I don't know either. I really wanted to meet him, but that's it. Maybe it's not time yet." Neo replied and smiled faintly at Elle. The girl simply nodded and looked back ahead.
A few minutes later, Elle opened her voice.
"Darling.." call Elle.
"Hm?" Deheman Neo and focus on driving.
"Two months to my birthday. I want to get the present now,"
"anything for you. What do you want?" Neo asked and glanced at Elle at a glance then looked back at the road in front of him.
"I want to join the Chi Corporation. Want, huh?" Elle put a hard look on Neo.
"Do you know anything about business?" Ask Neo wonder.
"I definitely haven't told you. I calmed myself down for only a year a few months. The rest of me went on to study business. Therefore, I left you long enough." Alen answered and smiled sweetly at Neo.
"really? But I don't want you to work. I'm enough to work. Your job is to spend my money. I don't want you to get sick or anything,"
"I know what you mean. But, honey... I just want to be a career woman who when standing next to you, and being seen by others, doesn't embarrass you. I just want to be known for my talent not for being your lover. Moreover, you are an established CEO, there must be many beautiful girls out there who are after you. I don't like that. I'm jealous." Elle displayed a pouting expression on Neo.
"Why should I be ashamed? It doesn't matter to me. I'm not a man who likes to see beautiful women. You by my side, that's enough." Reply Neo and smile faintly at Elle beside him.
After saying that, Neo's expression suddenly changed. He recalled his statement a few hours ago to Rihan.
"Yes, God! I suddenly felt guilty for him. I'm sorry, Rei. I don't want to lose you, but I don't want to lose Elle either. Ii'm sorry. I hurt you both" Neo murmured inwardly and exhaled a rough breath.
"You don't want to grant my request?" Elle asked with a sad expression with teary eyes. He thought Neo's expression changed because of his request.
"Not that, honey. I just don't want you to get tired from work. Just ask for something else, hm?" Persuade Neo.
"I just want that. It's a waste of me majoring in business if I just spend your money. I don't want to!"
"Yes, already. I'll have Logan put you in company. Don't be sad anymore" Neo relented and smiled faintly and briefly stroked Elle's head.
"really? Thank you, dear..." Elle was so happy, and hugged Neo's arm tightly.
"Together."
"But I want to choose for myself which part of it I have to work on. Can, yeah." Whine Elle again.
"anything for you. So, what division do you want to spell in?"
"I want to be your personal assistant."
"But I've got Logan."
"I don't want to know! I want to work next to you. After all, many entrepreneurs out there have two personal assistants. Why aren't you?"
"As far as you. I can't refuse you, "Pause Neo and shook his head slowly.
"Thank you very much, honey... I love you."
"Hm."
"One more request. This is the last one. Hehe..." Elle again put on a blank face as possible.
"Tell me!"
"Let me take over the resort construction project near that river." Elle said seriously.
"Why?" Ask Neo curiously.
"I just want to. It looks like it's exciting."
"But baby... The project was also handled by Brand. Don't you hate him? I just don't want you to get hurt. No, yeah."
"Either that. I wanted to show the bastard that I wasn't as weak as he thought so he could bully me. The main reason I took this project was because of him. I want to pay it back."
"Are you serious?"
"Eum... Want, huh?" Whimper Elle.
"As I said before. Anything for you."
Neo, the man was shocked because it was his first time being kissed. Their relationship is quite long, only limited to hugs and handrails only.
"Usually someone*cium* by his lover, surely he will be happy. Why do I feel so ordinary? While I kissed Rei earlier, it was very happy. Just thinking about that kiss makes my heart beat. Have my feelings for Elle changed?" Neo asked in his heart.
"You must love how I kiss? Your face is flushed," said Elle and smiled. The girl thought Neo's face was flushed with a kiss earlier. In fact, the man's face was blushing at the thought of his kiss on Rihan.
"uh? Eums... Next time don't kiss me without permission. We've agreed not to touch that far." Said Neo after waking up.
"You angry? I'm sorry..." Said Elle slowly.
"I'm not angry. It's just... We had a deal from the beginning. Don't repeat it." Reply Neo and smile faintly at Elle.
"Good."
"Ck... You think I like kissing you? That's just part of the plan." Inner Elle was annoyed and stared back ahead.

Before lunchtime, around 11am, Rihan had already returned to the mansion. He was only an hour on campus and did nothing. There was nothing interesting that bored him and went home quickly.
"There's something I need to tell you, sir." Welcome Alex after Rihan enters the mansion.
"On my work space."
"Good, Sir."
Arriving at the study, Rihan headed to the sofa and sat there. Rihan also coded Alex to sit in front of him. After Rihan's assistant sat down, he then opened his voice.
"A few minutes ago before your arrival, Director Bimo called me and said that the CEO of Chi Corporation asked to meet for a discussion of the resort development project.
During the meeting, Mr. Neo introduces his new assistant who will assist him in the resort development project, replacing his first assistant. I checked the surveillance cameras at the meeting place, and it turned out that Mr. Neo's new assistant was Elle."
"So soon he added an assistant without a second thought. Really stupid guy. What's Logan's response to Elle replacing him?" Ask Rihan calmly. His two hands were adrift to each other propping up his chin.
"Mr Logan was very happy because his work was a little reduced."
"So, so. Since when did she become a personal assistant?" Rihan asked glanced at the newly entered Alen and sat down beside Alex.
"A few hours ago, sir. The woman had not officially become an assistant, but had already been brought in for a meeting." Answer Alex.
"He's really eyeing the project" Rihan murmured and grinned. Rihan then took her phone and contacted someone.
"Go home now! You only have 20 minutes. One second late, our relationship is over." Rihan said and turned off his phone without waiting for a reply from across the street. Rihan is sure the person across there must be swearing at him.
"Who are you calling, sir?" Alen asked curiously.
"Wait another 20 minutes."
"Good, Sir."
"Next week Tata's birthday. Pick him up tomorrow or the day after, Lex." Rihan told after staring at his watch.
"What are you planning, sir?" Ask Alex.
"Look at it later. But, a little leak, a gift for Tata later will be a surprise for Elle."
"I understand, Sir."
Not long after, the person who contacted Rihan barged into the workspace in a hurry.
"19 minutes 56 seconds." Said the man with a gasp of breath while staring at his watch.
"Looks like you're so afraid our relationship is over, brother." Rihan stared flatly at the man in front of him who was none other than Brand.
"Don't talk about it first. Remember to pay a fine to the police station for a traffic violation. I almost had an accident. It's a good thing those cops can't come after me, "Brand then sits next to Rihan.
"Alex will take care of that."
"What did you tell me to go home?" Brand asked after leaning on the sofa.
"Tell me why Elle wanted the resort's construction project" Rihan looked at Brand seriously.
"Before I say it, tell me what's really going on." Ask Brand.
Alex without being asked, immediately told what happened before.
"The magician is really," Brand shook his head unhappily.
"So like this... A few years ago, before my friendship with Neo broke up, I accidentally read a book that fell out of Elle's bag. If I'm not mistaken, it's like a diary book. When the book fell, I picked it up and accidentally read the open passage.
There it says, there is an underground organization that he says no one can match them. The leader of the organization is targeting a land in Indonesia that is expected to provide great benefits in the future. Actually not only that land, but there is something that he said is stored around the land.
In the following sheet of the book, a map of the land in question is also listed. I also took a picture of the map. At first I did not believe the writing in the book. But seeing Elle's surprised expression as I held the book, I was sure, what was written there was true.
Out of curiosity about the land, with the help of the map in my hand, I searched for the actual location of the land in question. It turns out that land is where the resort development project is." Brand's story while glaring considering the events of several years ago.
"The underground organization?" Rihan asked frowned.
"Yes. What was? You know that organization?" Ask Brand back. Rihan only replied with a sling.
"What is the underground organization that sells poison bullets, sir?" Alex looked at Rihan.
"Come,"
