Same as the Former
CHAPTER 18

This day Kevin worked unfocused, even during meetings, Kevin's mind kept remembering Ayesha whose life was so miserable, he thought so.

Kevin immediately contacted Kenzo and unfortunately Kenzo was very difficult to contact. Kenzo knew that if Kevin called her because he wanted to ask Ayesha, Lina the secretary had already informed Kenzo.

"Kev, it's time for you to go after your life, get close to Ayesha and find out about her, then protect her." Kenzo muttered as he looked at his cellphone which kept receiving calls from Kevin and Kenzo ignored him.

"Ken, you're such a shitty brother." Said Kevin in annoyance and hit his own desk.

Kevin came home early, but he saw Ayesha mopping the floor near the elevator, there was a sense of unwillingness to see Ayesha doing heavy work according to Kevin's version.

"Come...."

Ayesha who was looking down because she was focused on her work immediately raised her head and looked at Kevin.

"Mr Kev.." Ayesha immediately looked down not like this situation.

Kevin sighed, "Leave the device."

"where can. It's my job."

Kevin massaged the base of his nose, then he found a silly idea that he thought was brilliant.

"I still haven't made a decision whether you're fired or not." Kevin said firmly.

"Kev..." Ayesha called out in a clear tone.

"You want me not to fire you?"

Ayesha nodded.

"In addition to working here, you also have to work with me in the apartment."

"So your maid?" Ask Ayesha.

Kevin shrugged his shoulders, "What if I'm my bedmate?"

Ayesha throttles, Ayesha knows from Kenzo if during college Kevin became a cassanova, even when Kevin was heartbroken at his girlfriend, Kevin became more and more, by hiring a paggilan woman to warm his bed.

Ayesha chose silence not to respond to what Kevin said.

"Well, besides working here, you're also working with me, in my apartment no one has cleaned it yet and I need that.

"Where are you staying?"

"In XX' apartment."

"Away, what should I wear?"

"Of course stay with me, and while working you will also go and come home with me."

"Where can it be like that? What did someone else say?"

"Would you eat something given to you by someone else?" Ask Kevin.

Kevin spread his gaze and saw Syamsul there and called out to him.

"Sul, take over Ayssha's work, from today Ayesha works with me. And don't spread any gossip or you lose your job." Strictly Kevin.

"I.. Yes, sir." Shamsul replied and immediately took the mop from Ayesha's hand.

Kevin just pulled Ayesha's hand to get into the company's elevator.

"I have to get into the contract first, Kev."

"Where's your contract?"

"After King Corp."

"I'll take you."

"No, Kev."

"Why?"

"I don't want you to run away from me. You can just run away from your family, let alone me." Kevin said half-sneaked.

"You don't know what I'm about, don't conclude as well as you do."

"Then tell me let me know." Said Kevin.

Ayesha was only silent, she thought it would be inappropriate to talk about her problems with her ex in the past.

With Ayesha forced to let Kevin follow her, they walk towards Ayesha's contract and become the attention of people there, especially those who work also in King Corp.

Kevin followed until he arrived at Ayesha's contract and looked in wonder at the contract that became Ayesha's residence.

"This is where you live?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"It's so small, even with the maid's room in my mother's house, it's still my maid's room's size."

Ayesha just kept quiet without returning Kevin's words and focused on packing her clothes.

"You didn't give the keys to the owner of this contract?" Kevin asked again when he saw Ayesha put the key in her bag.

"I haven't lived here in a month and I've been paying this contract for six months." Ayesha. "I'll be back here again if my job with you is done." Another imbibing.

"Up to you." Answer Kevin with a joke.

They walk back to the company and special parking place where Kevin's car, Ayesha enters and sits beside the wheel because Kevin's car is a sports car that only has two seats only.

Along the way they just kept quiet, especially Kevin, his heart was still asking questions about what happened to Ayesha.

Until they arrive at an apartment, they get down and walk towards Kevin's unit.

"Come in." Kevin said to Ayesha.

Ayesha steps in and sees the contents of Kevin's apartment.

"Where's my room?" Ayesha asked who was tired.

"Fin' there." Show Kevin and deliver Ayesha.

"Here's your room, rest and come out later for the night."

"Hem, thank you." Reply Ayesha and go straight into her room, leaving Kevin with a myriad of curiosity.

Meanwhile inside the room, Ayesha immediately cleaned herself up. I don't know what dream he had last night to meet Kevin.

"Kevin's getting good-looking, it's worth it if Kev becomes a playboy like that, more than Kenzo's playboy." Ayesha.

Ayesha finished her bath, now she finished dressing at home with a batik patterned home negligee in the style of a traditional market, "Now I have to do what?"

Ayesha sighed after a long daydream, "Of course I have to clean up this apartment, am I not here to work? And last night Kev said I was out for dinner, which means I have to prepare dinner."

Ayesha comes out of her room, she does not see Kevin there, Ayesha thinks maybe Kevin is in the room or is out.

Ayesha immediately went to the kitchen to start preparing dinner, she opened the contents of the refrigerator and took out some groceries from there.

Ayesha, who used to cook for five years at her in-laws' house, is now so used to preparing dinner for Kevin. Ayesha cooks seafood capcay and fried chicken and then serves it on the not-so-big dining table.

"Done, that annoying big boss must love my cooking." murmured Ayesha.

Ayesha went back to the kitchen to wash the cooking utensils she had used and cleaned the kitchen from the oil as well as the cooking hot steam.

Shortly after, Kevin came out of his room, without Ayesha realizing, Kevin noticed Ayesha's movements were struggling in the kitchen, Kevin also saw the results of Ayesha's cooking.

Kevin was more curious, with what happened to Ayesha, Ayesha who used to be like a princess who was united by her family suddenly like an ash-up, the curiosity became more, more and more, various speculations sprang up in Kevin's mind.

Kevin plans to investigate it himself if Kenzo still doesn't tell him, he will have the eye set to investigate what happened to Ayesha, why Ayesha looks so pitiful in Kevin's eyes. Kevin is really going to find out what happened to Ayesha for seven years from their break up when they graduated school first.
