M9 🥀 :EV DECISION
“Until when will you stay silent, Ev? Until that bastard guy introduced his mistress to the world?”
The last question that came from Dean until now managed to master the contents of Ev's head. If asked until when Ev can be hurt, Ev does not know. On one hand he started to face all of this. However, on the other hand he did not want to fall down alone.
Just because he was betrayed by Darren, will Ev just keep quiet? They married because they would benefit from each other. While at this time the position of Ev is in a position that is disadvantaged because of the actions of Darren as his partner.
Apart from all that, Ev is also unable if he has to last longer. Because basically Ev is just an ordinary woman who feels. Without being asked, even without being prevented, the taste for men who have been editing it is growing. At first Ev did not want to define the feelings that arise. However, the more day Ev becomes convinced that the feeling is defined as the seeds of a taste called love.
Ev has been patient for a long time with Darren's attitude. Ev realized Darren changed a few months back. However, Ev ignored him at that moment. The more he gets here, Darren's attitude gets more arbitrary. Ev's suspicions grew when the man did not come when he needed her. Even if Ev is in the hospital, Darren remains selfish because he prioritizes his own interests. Now the evidence of Darren's betrayal is getting stronger in Ev's hands.
“Ev, what’s wrong? You look a lot dreamy today.”
The question of Dimi sitting in front of Ev, made the owner of the name stunned for a moment. However, Ev is good at self-control, so he easily controls expression.
“I fine, Dim.”
Dimi squinted his eyes, hearing Ev's less convincing answer. Dimi chose not to ask further, as Ev had already turned his face to the side. It was as if enjoying the view of the Themes river below. Dimi and Ev are currently on the Millennium Wheel or the London Eye, an icon of London. The London Eye is the largest observation wheel in the world at 135 meters or 443 feet. The observation wheel rotated over the river Themes.
“Ev.”
“Hmm.”
“If anyone bothers you, tell me. Don't dipendak.”
Ev turned his head, looking at the manager who was also staring at him. Despite Dimi's deviation, Ev still respects and cherishes the man like a brother. Remembering Dimi is the closest and most open figure to him. Dimi is also the figure who most accommodates Ev's secrets. There is nothing Ev keeps from Dimi, except his marriage which is based on a covenant. Dimi only knows that Ev and Darren's household is not as harmonious as the couple's relationship out there.
“This must have something to do with your husband?” guess Dimi's on target.
Ev was silent for a moment. Not answering Dimi's question, but Ev's silence was summed up as an answer by Dimi.
“What else does your husband do now? Was he caught playing with fire behind you?”
Ev jacked up, staring at his interlocutor. Once again, Dimi's guess was on target. Although Ev believes that Dimi is actually just the origin of guessing. However, Ev should admit that Dimi was quite observant in assessing the situation as well as reading expressions.
“Dim, I need help.”
Dimi smiled faintly hearing it. “Finally you need help too, Ev.”
Ev winked his shoulders indifferently. However, in this kind of situation, only Dimi could be asked for help.
Ev has been making decisions post-awake all night. Every sentence Dean spoke by phone last night, a little opened Ev's eyes and heart. If indeed the marriage can not be maintained anymore, then Ev does not want to end up as a party who is hurt without being able to hurt back. Ev must prepare ammunition to be able to reply back. At least he prepared ammunition to be able to make Darren Aryasatya Xander regret having played with him.
“I need someone for my husband.”
“Someone?” reset Dimi.
“Hmm. Someone who is quite trained,” continued Ev.
Dimi smiled faintly as he nodded. “It just so happens that I have a Radityan family acquaintance. They have an asset that can work for you, Ev.”
Ev frowned hearing Radityan's name mentioned. As Ev recalled, he had worked with some great people with the frills of the name Radityan behind his name. One of them is Lunar Radityan, one of the famous designers who has gone international. Ev had several times wearing designer clothes.
Ev also briefly met up with the wife of current CEO Radityan Crop’s at an auction event held in Los Angles. At that time Dimi introduced her to Crazy Rich Surabaya's daughter. As far as Ev knows, the Radityan family is indeed made up of great people who are known for their loyalty and hard work.
“Gimana, Ev. Are you interested in using his services?”
“Provided it works neatly and reliably.”
“He works very neatly, and is certainly reliable,” said Dimi reassured. “That's why let me contact him after coming from here. But, the assets of the Radityan family are quite expensive to pay.”
Ev smiled snobbishly. “Expensive payments are usually worth the services provided.”
“Of courses. I guarantee you professional work.”
Ev nodded in response. His sight was then diverted to the flow of the river Themes below. This is just Ev's first step in anticipation. When his position is squeezed someday, Ev is ready with the ammunition he has.
This is the decision Ev made in the end. He will not remain silent if he continues to be hurt. For now, let him wait for the right time to launch a counterattack. Unless Darren is finally able to make Ev change his mind.
🥀🥀
A man wearing a maroon-coloured suit looked to be ruffled with his waist. His interlocutor looked indifferent across the table.
“Udah I told you from the beginning that Dean was not to think trivial,” he said again while sitting himself next to the secretary of his interlocutor.
“Now Dean has officially served as CFO. You still take him lightly?”
Darren, the male interlocutor who is still fiddling it averted his gaze from the MacBook in hand at his interlocutor. It should be Darren who is scrambling, knowing after a business trip out of town, he finds the CFO position has been filled by someone who has long been an archenemy. However, his anger is represented by the man who currently serves as COO or Chief Operations Officer.
The CFO or Chief Financial Officer himself is known as the Director of Finance. This position may be rarely heard, as the CFO works behind the scenes. Unlike the position of the COO who takes care of the technical affairs of the company, and the CEO who became the face of the company so that it is better known to the public.
The CFO is responsible for everything in finance. Includes planning, finance, recording, to company administration. In some sectors, the CFO is also responsible for data analysis. However, the main task of the CFO is to do financial planning and be responsible for the company's cash flow. The CFO usually reports to the CEO and the board of directors. A CFO usually occupies the third position in the leadership structure, after the CEO and COO.
Darren, who has just returned to work, initially only requires instructions from his secretary if there is a general meeting between the board of directors. Who would have thought if in the meeting he got a big surprise. Dean's presence in the boardroom has become a big question mark for everyone, not least Darren. Surprise doubled after Dazen Xander—dayah Darren—announced that Dean had now officially filled the CFO position.
That is certainly very surprising, considering that Darren was not informed about the discourse on the recruitment of a new CFO. What's more filling the position as CFO is Dean Wijaya. Darren's mortal enemy since antiquity. Though Darren knows if the man already holds the position as CEO of a famous model agency in this city. Somehow the story, to the extent that the man can fill the position of CFO under the leadership of Darren as CEO.
“How do you want now? I've resigned if bokap lo who gave the mandate,” said the man known as Dewangga. “Do you know who recommended Dean to bokap lo?”
“Who?”
Darren who had been silent earlier, was eventually provoked as well. Lie if he is also not upset about Dean's current position.
“Bokapnya bini lo.”
Darren fell silent. Dad Ev? His inner. He remembered very closely how close Dean was to the wife's family. Given that the man also grew and developed with his wife, Daren unconsciously clenched his hands. Dean's presence in a company led by him must be the start of a catastrophe. I don't know what, but Darren's convinced that he's planning something big.
“Ah yes, one more.” The young man who was just about to leave, sat himself back down. “Lo know, right, if Dean deket same bini lo?”
Darren frowned hearing that. Same with Damian sitting next to Dewangga.
“Gue sense of her presence here is related to bini lo.”
“You mean?” no, it wasn't Darren asking the question. Except Damian.
The villager grinned faintly before replying, leaving Darren and Damian astonished. “Dean has been chasing Ev. It could be his presence here to find the gap Darren, so he can destroy the household Darren and Ev.”
“On what basis do you think so?”
“Ata basic triagle love between Dean-Ev-Darren which until this moment has not been resolved,” replied the Deity. The man then looked up at Darren.
“You better be careful, because it could be my real guess. You know better how crazy Dean is chasing Ev, right?”
Darren did not answer. But in his heart he asserted. He remembered very well how persistent Dean was in pursuing the woman who was currently his wife. Damn, Darren's getting anxious.
“Do not ignore. You can only fail this time, because you want more work outside the city that is not clear. In the future I hope you are not helped anymore because of wanting something that is not necessarily valuable.”
Hearing the end of Dewangga's sentence, Darren's reflexes kicked off the table. Part of his heart was not willing if what he took care of outside the city some time back was considered worthless.
Dewangga smiled pongah, aware that his sentence had offended Darren. “Sorry. I am wrong, it may be valuable to you, but not necessarily valuable to others. You should be able to maintain which is the most valuable, especially for the benefit of many people. Bottom line, don't be selfish.”
After saying this, the lady left the room. However, before completely disappearing in the doorway, the man again said. Makes Darren's emotions increasingly gathered in the ubun-ubun.
“This time you missed the CFO position because of Dean. Next time, do not let lo kecolongan bini because Dean also.”
No, Darren won't let it!
