Shackles Love Contracts CEO Secretary
The Poor Contract Lover
That morning, the office was back with the news of Syadira and Aji's relationship. One of the company's internal teams contacted Aji about this. Aji also asked Syadira not to enter the office today. However, Syadira rejected it, because it will only add to the negative thoughts of the employees. Aji agreed with Syadira's will and they didn't leave together this morning.
Vita continues to accompany Syadira at Aji's request. Vita continued to rub his friend's arm so that Syadira was strong with the cynical gaze of the employees who looked at him from the office yard to the lobby. “What's up, Dir, we work ‘kan in the lobby, while they're upstairs, cuek only.”
Syadira smiled at Vita. “Thank you so much ya Vit, you're my good friend.”
They rushed to his desk. Before long, Aji came with his father. Syadira did not dare to look at Aji and his father, only able to nod respectfully as the attitude of a subordinate. Some employees who gossiped to Syadira in the lobby immediately stopped talking and returned to their respective rooms when they found out that the CEO had arrived at the office.
One of the company's internal teams came to Syadira and said something very slowly. “Think nothing happened, let this news roll and disappear by itself as it was then, without any action. If anyone is in trouble, we will do a light clarification. As long as the marriage has not occurred, the company will not take a headache with this, because it has not entered a violation. This is a company strategy that is often used in the face of wild balls like now.”
Syadira nodded in understanding and thanked him.
“Waaah great yes Aji, dad, and his team, can deftly coordinate. Compact!” sahut Vita after knowing the person passed away leaving Syadira.
Syadira looked at Vita. “The company is indeed this good, but the mouths of its employees are making my position difficult.”
Meanwhile, in the CEO's room, it appears Aji and his father are talking about something serious.
“So whose home is it? You buy for him?” Aji's father begins to interrogate his son.
Aji seemed silent contemplating why her father could know about her secret house. Aji remembered the report of his men that night. It turns out that her father was the one who was observing Aji's house when Aji met Syadira.
“Home Aji. Aji bought it a year ago. The house is not big but it is quiet enough that Aji wants to be alone. Incidentally, the house was used to perfect Aji's plan. Aji asks Syadira to occupy the house to convince Bella,” Aji explained about her secret house.
“Because Bella wouldn't believe your contractual relationship knowing your boyfriend lives in a small, densely populated neighborhood?” guess Aji's dad.
Aji is speechless not believing his father can find out Syadira's identity.
“So you understand ‘kan who he is? I see you so enjoying the relationship that you call the contract. I don't even see that as a contract date, does that mean you guys managed to fool Bella? Or because you really have a relationship with that woman?” some of Aji's fathers want to keep introgating.
“Dad just reminded, about the importance of value and equality,” continued Aji's father made Aji stunned swallow.
Aji's father also advises Aji to get closer to Selena. However, Aji refuses her father's advice because she has no feelings for Selena. Aji wants her father to not always see equality above everything else.
“At least look for the family, especially the parents are clear,” continued Aji's father clarified the core of his conversation.
“This life belongs to Aji, not to the father's relationship whose mouth can make father ashamed just because a Father Haryo has an unequal ghost. Value was not seen from equality, Well,” said Aji left the room of the father.
Aji's father just let out a long breath.

That day was the worst day for Syadira. Vita did not even leave Syadira for a minute. He continued to accompany Syadira to live this difficult day. The chatter rolled through the day, or even into the next few days.
“Halo guys, how are you?” sapa Chorina, one of the gossip queens in the office on Vita and Syadira
“Syadira, tell dong the beginning you can be the same Mr Aji how? Because of the kasian or what? Ceritain dong,” laughter one of Chorina's friends.
Syadira just smiled.
Vita continued to rub Syadira's arm to strengthen her. I wanted Vita to interrupt their words, but she was just a receptionist, no more power to do that. Like not liking, inevitably, there is nothing to do but just be able to listen to that discordant voice.
“What's the deal with you guys?” the voice of a male employee stopped Chorina and her friend from joking.
“It's only natural that they like each other, which is not natural that Pak Aji likes his male employees. As long as there is no marriage, they are not said to violate the rules ‘kan? Then, what's the problem with getting gossiped? Is it not appropriate to be gossiped those who commit violations?” continued the man who turned out to be one of the Division Heads.
Chorina and her friend fell silent and left the reception desk. So too with that man. Syadira seemed to be trying to hold back her crying. The teasing that he had heard earlier was not far from insulting words.
“You are great,” said Vita gave his 2 thumbs up to Syadira. Vita tries to comfort Syadira by inviting her to eat together after the office. “I am a treat.”
Suddenly Syadira's phone rang.
“I'll see you tonight. See you, My dear.”
The short message from Aji seemed to strengthen his mind.

“Bella wedding is only less than 4 weeks implemented, if you want to end everything, I do not force, Dir,” said Aji when he arrived at Syadira's house.
“I can not see you as the talk of all employees,” continued Aji with a look of unbearable face.
Syadira just smiled. “The contract I signed is not over yet, Mas. Obviously I don't want to violate our contractual rules. If we stop here, I'm afraid our efforts for these 2 months will be in vain. Don't be 1 month, 1 week Bella can still use to make you marry her. I don't want to disappoint Mas Aji. Mas Aji's sacrifice was already huge for this contractual relationship. Don't think of me, Mom. The thing they do is natural to see someone like me in a relationship with someone like you. Mas Aji just calm down, from childhood I have been used to holding wounds, even this 1 month will be nothing compared to the 23 years I live.”
Aji stared deeply into her contract lover. Aji stroked Syadira's head, and hugged her. Aji kept holding her for a long time. “You will get what you should get, Dir,” he said in his heart.

“All office employees already know, Mom,” said one of Bella's men.
Bella laughs satisfied listening to the story of her men who became spies in Aji's office. “Partially gossiped to Aji's boyfriend because he was considered shameless and unconscious. But there is no information about the response of Mr. Haryo.”
“No problem, the important thing is that now they are in an uncomfortable situation. Goodjob!” Bella really felt like she won today.
These few days Syadira continues to be faced with the bitter, spicy and sweet mouth of everyone in the office. Some gossip demeaning, but some are actually supportive. Some, not caring about their love story, because they feel nothing to do with their lives.
Meanwhile, Selena who does not know where the news spread Aji's relationship, feels challenged by Bella's attitude. “You yourself asked for your disgrace published, Bel.”
