The CEO's Second Wife
IKSC Chapter 78 ~ Papi Only Mine

After delivering Bella and her children to her home, Nia immediately drove her vehicle looking for the nearest supermarket to buy all the needs of Bella and her children as long as they could not get out of the house and undergo activities as usual.

Alex will not know the address of Nia's former home because indeed the address of his house was never known by Alex. Alex only knows his home address with Bima.

Nia then got out of the car and brought a large trolley to enter all the needs that Bella had already noted. The money purchased also uses his money first because Bella can not move with her atm card if she does not want her existence tracked by Alex.

While choosing some kitchen materials, Nia gets a call from Arga who asks for prayers so as not to be nervous appearing in front of the TV. Nia agreed to what Arga asked for. Of course, without being asked by Arga, Nia would always pray for her son.

After talking for a few minutes to calm Arga who turned out to be nervous as well, Nia then turned off the phone and put the phone in her bag.

"Mom Nia?" greet someone warmly.

The woman spontaneously turned her head and smiled at the woman she recognized as the wife of Dirman - the biological father of Arga-no other than Ratna.

"Bu Ratna, huh? Shopping too?" Nia replied in a friendly manner, making Ratna smile no less friendly as well.

"Yes, Mom. Regular monthly needs."

He did not think that this young woman was the wife of Bima who he knew was Hera's first husband. Ah, it's too subtle to mention it, Ratna thought inwardly.

"Mother used to shop alone for home needs?"

Ratna nodded in response. Currently, women who already have the status as a wife of Dirman are sorting out some brands of spices so that she usually uses everyday.

"Yes, Mom. If shopping alone somehow feels more satisfying," replied Ratna while looking at Nia. "Mom Nia, if you can't call me 'mom' huh? Call me mbak also can," Pinta Ratna.

"Can, Ma'am.  Sister Ratna also don't call me Miss Nia. Just call a name. Let's get familiar." Nia chuckled while putting the kitchen seasoning into her trolley. The woman then shifted a little to sort out some other needs.

"could. Just call her Nia, okay?"

"Yes, Mommy."

The two then began to choose items while telling stories until they did not feel the time had passed. Nia then bailed home and promised Ratna if they could chat occasionally and pass the time.

Ratna certainly agreed with what Nia said. Familiar with stepmothers of stepchildren does not matter, right? After all, Ratna thought that Nia was a nice and cool woman to talk to and make friends with.

Nia returned to her old house and gave what Bella ordered, who immediately thanked her and apologized for bothering her friend.

For Nia, it doesn't matter. Nia will give 100 kindnesses to the person who has one good to her. However, the woman would also give 100 crimes to the one who gave her one crime.

It is a law of nature in which good is not always good, and evil is not always evil.

After delivering Bella's goods, Nia went straight home.  She had to take a shower and clean up before investigating her own clothing store that already had several branches. There were complaints from customers who said that the store service was very unsatisfactory. It makes him curious about what kind of store service to make customers complain a lot to him.

After arriving home and taking a shower to clean up, the woman was ready to set off again. This time he did not bring his two twin boys because the distance between the shops to be visited was a bit far from home.

The woman was wearing foreskin pants below the knees combined with a white T-shirt. While the sandals are wearing wedges flip-flops to show their height.  This is a type of everyday Nia clothing if the woman is not at a formal event.

After making sure her two children were neat, Nia entrusted them to Bu Yuni. Only then did he leave in his car. This was his car when he was a girl. A million people brand car that he never thought to sell even though Nia has been bought several types of cars by Bima. Actually this car was sold, but at that time Nia dreamed of both her parents climbed on top of this car. Maybe this is a sign that he should not sell this car at any time, so that makes the woman buy his car again. It doesn't matter if Nia has to diligently serve this car. Bima has a lot of money to spend on car repairs, Nia thought in her heart.

Nia immediately drove her car to a store located in the center of the crowd. The woman parked her car and got down immediately. The front yard of the store looks spacious because Nia deliberately set up a large parking lot. The woman then stepped in with the bag she had shawl on her shoulder.

Nia just walked in without any employees saying hello. The woman did come to this store often, but other than the store manager, no one knew if Nia was the owner.

The woman then took a look at some neatly arranged clothing collections. The price tag is perfectly installed between the rows of clothes. The price was quite expensive to make Nia who saw him frown.  This store has a target market for people who are in the lower and middle classes. Obviously, the price of clothes in this store will not be expensive. For example, the shirt he was holding, Nia remembered the price was no more than 100 thousand. However, when he saw the label tag, it cost 349 thousand.  His forehead shriveled then turned to some other clothes that had a price above the price he had determined.

People usually think about quality and price. Most people want good things but at a cheap price. Nia is already racking her brains with the marketing of her clothes. So, the woman thought in 1 month she could spend 3 thousand pcs of clothes that she sold in one store. Plus they hold an online shop by selling live. However, the last few months, store revenue has never been as much as the beginning of their store opening. It made Nia wonder why this could happen. However, it seemed like Nia had already found the answer.

Nia then started going around the store and looking at the price tag on each outfit until a store employee approached Nia with her face of judes.

"Sir, if you don't buy and just look around, mending go. They just filled the shop. Look, that's a lot of customers buying. Just mbak aja from earlier around while looking at the price tag." The waiter was wearing a pink checkered shirt. His hands were folded on his chest while staring at judes on Nia's figure. It seemed, this was a new employee since Nia had never seen him before.

"I just check the price of each outfit.  Don't bother the customers here." Nia glanced at some buyers who were choosing clothes.

"Okay, excuse me, ma'am. You want to find the cheapest shirt, right? Sorry, yes, Ma'am, there are no cheap clothes here. Cheapest 200 grand. This store has famous people, not just anyone." The shopkeeper said cynically. "So you know the price."

"Oh, huh?" Nia became more interested. "It's not a branch of the Mami Nia Collection Store. I've heard, if the Mami Nia collection store has several branches and all the prices of goods are cheap. Except, in the shop." Nia displayed a serious expression as she said what she knew.

In addition to clothing stores, Nia also has boutiques that work with several regional designers to make party dresses for the upper class.

"Don't know Mami Nia's collection store? If you know, it means you also know the price of each product in the store mami Nia collection.  It's not like a store that often goes in the market." The shopkeeper replied rudely making Nia surprised by the service of this very generous store.

Just as Nia was about to reply to the words of the shopkeeper before her, there was a commotion at the cashier, making Nia and the shopkeeper who were talking to her immediately approach the source of the voice.

"I completely forgot to bring my wallet. My phone is lowbat. I wouldn't cheat to buy clothes here." A woman with a shirt down her knee looked at the cashier in front of her quietly. "I can go home first and grab my wallet. Anyway, his clothes are still here. Even if I don't come back, this store won't lose."

The woman completely forgot to bring her wallet. Actually, he had taken his sons to school and immediately intended to go home. However, in the middle of the trip the woman saw a group of children wearing tattered clothes on the side of the road selling food and drinks.  This made the woman think of buying them some clothes that were worth wearing. The goal is to go directly to this store because it is the closest store to the place of the children. Be, he picked out some clothes and when he was about to pay for them, his wallet was left behind. While the driver who brought it was gone to fill the wind tires of the car.

"No, dong, ma'am. I should have understood that we did not lose money in material terms. But we lose in time. I've been hard-earned to add the mother's groceries, but the mother just cancel the groceries," said the cashier with a ketus.

"I will definitely be going back to this store. Let me go home for a while to get my wallet left behind. If Mbak does not believe, can ask one of the employees of this store to come with me," said the woman tried to negotiate. However, the store cashier still maintains his desire for the woman to immediately pay for groceries that he had totaled.

Seeing that, the shopkeeper who had argued with Nia immediately stepped forward. "Mom, if you don't have money, don't stop by this store. Our store doesn't serve people who don't have money."

The first shopkeeper blurted cynically. It made the woman shook her head watching the service in this store which was very beyond her expectations.  Many of his children's student guardians said the store was very good. Unfortunately, the woman was treated inappropriately.

Seeing that, Nia immediately approached the cashier table. The woman then handed her phone to the woman who looked confused.

"Sorry, Mommy memorized the number of the house person or husband?" Nia asked in her calm voice. But the hardened jaws and anger stored in his heart were clearly visible from his face.

"I memorized it, Ma'am. I wanted to borrow their cell phone, but they wouldn't let me." The woman replied calmly. "May I pinjem Mbak's phone?"

"Please." Nia gave her cell phone to the woman. Then he turned to the 4-man shop clerk while shaking his head slowly. "I really did not expect to see something like this in a pretty famous clothing store" said Nia.

The woman looked at them one by one then turned to stare at the store cashier. "How long have you been working here? You know that SOP here?"

The cashier did not answer. However, her thin face made Nia sigh. "Make your manager Ms. Hasna come here now. Tell him that I, Nia, am here" he said.

"Bu Hasna doesn't exist. He's a busy man." The cashier immediately replied with a ketus. Thinking if the woman in front of him was looking for Hasna just to look for face in front of other customers.

"busy? Busy what does the store manager do to make the service of the store and the price of clothes is not so satisfying for customers?" Nia replied cynically. Nia picked up the phone that the woman handed over and fiddled for a while before she stuck the phone to her ear.

"Bu Hasna is busy, I am now in the branch store led by Bu Hasna. Can you come here soon? Oh, all of you bring mom's resignation letter and mom's employee." After which, Nia instantly turned off the phone connection and looked at the few employees who were staring at her in surprise. "Sorry about what I said?" Nia smiled slantedly at them. 

"We have not yet known. I am Arrania Wilati, the owner of a whole clothing store called Mami Nia Collection Store. Happy with your welcome today," Nia said with her sieve. 

Of course what Nia said made the employees pale on the spot. They did not know that they had been supervised by the real shop owner.
