The Cold Wife
Chapter 1

"Tomorrow, come with Daddy. You should be able to attract Mr. Digan's attention. Be his wife, it will greatly benefit our company." A middle-aged man looked at the beautiful girl who was still looking down lethargic. They are currently in the living room. I'm discussing some important things.

"You hear?"

The girl raised her head, looking at the man she was familiar with as Daddy.

"Dad.." the girl wanted to protest, but was immediately denied by the Daddy.

"Don't be stupid, Sweet. Daddy doesn't want to hear any excuses! Prove if you're really Daddy's son," the middle-aged man's handler was full of emphasis.

After denying the girl's refusal, the man immediately left. Letting her daughter go silent. Reflect on all his words.

"What should I do?" The girl rubbed her forehead gently. He really can't afford to follow all the wishes of the Daddy. From childhood, he never had freedom. It was as if a chain kept shackling him. Pressing his life to the bottom of the abyss.

Sweet Alexsandra, her name is not as sweet as her life. A sweet girl who always gets a bitter life since childhood. The sundanese girl was raised in a developed country, Germany. From the age of 8, he was adopted by a couple of tourists. Jeremy Santonio and Charlote Santonio. Even Sweet's own name is a gift from his adoptive parents.

Sweet only knows that his biological parents' lives are deeply concerning. Even eating a mouthful of rice is so difficult. Not infrequently he felt fasting from an early age. Therefore, he did not blame his parents, who gave up his only daughter taken by outsiders. Because he always thought, all of it for his own good. Although the feeling of unwillingness continued to envelop his heart. Had to leave the birthplace and be raised by a stranger.

Sweet life in a foreign country is quite luxurious. He never felt life difficult again. All his needs were met well. But behind all that. He never got freedom and love. His life is under the control of his adoptive father. A man full of ambition. Everything the man wants, must always be fulfilled. And Sweet was always the victim of his father's ambition.

Every day, Sweet was lonely. Both of his parents were too busy in world affairs. He acknowledged that wealth cannot buy love and happiness. No wonder, if the girl grows up and always acts cold. However, behind all that there is a warm and spoiled nature in him. It just shows someone close to him. Sister Lyla. A middle-aged woman who has been looking after Sweet since childhood.

He is almost 23 years old now. However, her petite body made people always misunderstand her. Many thought he was a student. In fact, Sweet himself has completed master education in a short period of time.

"Sweet, time for prayer." Sweet was very surprised when someone held his shoulder. He turned his head and got a shady figure, when his heart was troubled. His feelings warmed up for a moment.

"Thank you, Lyla." Sweet said in thanks as the middle-aged woman reminded him. Since childhood, the woman was used to being a reminder clock for Sweet.

From the beginning Sweet decided to continue to embrace Islam. Religion entrusted by his biological parents. Sweet did not want to change that belief. He was born from a Muslim couple, that means the religion he has is the most true. That's what's in Sweet's mind. However, he had great respect for the religion of his adoptive parents. Including sister Lyla.

After setting his heart. Sweet rushed straight to the room. To carry out his duties as a Muslim.

Fifteen minutes later, he fell in love with the Almighty. Complain and ask for solutions. Hope all this suffering is over quickly, then changed with happiness.

After that, Sweet sat on the bed. The tiny hand grabbed a childhood album. Looking at the photos of his parents so deeply.

"Oh, sir, Ana misses you?" he muttered as he gently rubbed the photo. Then take her in the arms.

"But I'm so scared. Afraid that we'll never see each other again. Ana hopes, may Mother and Father always be healthy."

Sweet cried in silence. Fifteen years old, he never again met his biological parents in person. It would be a lie if Sweet didn't miss his homeland. But he can't do anything. On the other hand, his foster parents were also very meritorious. He is very indebted to them. However, they raised Sweet to become the beautiful and educated girl she is today. So he didn't allow himself to leave. So much he hasn't done to get back at it.

Munich International Airport

Announcements fill every corner of the airport. The plane from Indonesia has now landed perfectly and without obstacles.

From the exit, a casual-clothed man walked in full of charisma. Accompanied by two beautiful women walking behind him.

"You guys first, there's something I need to take care of. In front is already a pickup car," said the man who immediately rushed away. The two women seemed to understand and immediately chose a path that crossed with the direction of the man's steps.

Alexander Digantara's. A handsome man, although now his age has entered the head four. The young soul within him was still stirring. So many people are disinclined by him.

Brak!

Alex is shocked when a woman accidentally nudges him. And caused the woman to fall on the floor. Alex squatted down a little to help the woman. However, when the woman raised her face. Alex tehypnotis, that sharp piercing brown eye gaze managed to pierce through his heart.

Apparently, Alex helped the woman stand up. "You okay?" ask Alex. The woman immediately shook her head. She looked scared when she saw Alex's face.

"Sorry" said the woman who rushed away. Alex was very surprised and felt strange about the woman's attitude. He could only look at the back of the woman who was starting to move away.

"Sane," he said. Then he immediately left. Because he must immediately meet someone, to solve the business problems he is in.

"Master, please come in." A man in formal attire allowed Alex to enter a special room. A room that the airport provides for important meetings.

Upon entering the room, two middle-aged men greeted him respectfully. Alex pulled out a chair, sitting there staring at the two in turn.

Alex could read, if the two men were full of veiled wiles. However, he acted as if he knew nothing.

"Mr Digan, how are you?"

"As you can see, Mr. Santonio." Alex smiled faintly.

"Just get to the point" Alex said, staring at the two men in front of him. The smile turned into a serious look. Makes both men feel worried.

"All right, I'm not going to beat around the bush. I will immediately express the purpose of our meeting this time. That I want to re-submit cooperation between our companies that was delayed. Also introduce you to my daughter, Sweet Alexsandra."

Alex looked frowned. Advancing his body while propping up his chin. Giving a look of intimidation at the man who is his prospective co-worker.

"Want to sell your daughter, huh?" ask Alex casually. The middle-aged man slightly snapped. However, it quickly normalized his expression. Alex who saw that smiled meaningfully.

"That's not what I mean, but our cooperative relationship would be better if we had a closer bond. How, Mr Digan?"

Cih, you greedy old man. Alex in my heart. Alex is back on the head of the chair.

"You've made sure your daughter is worthy of me? Isn't the girl now so free in getting along?" Alex raised his eyebrows. Waiting for an answer.

"Ah, I make sure my daughter is worthy of you. He very rarely goes out at night and hangs out freely. I always limit all of his movements. He never dated any man either. If you're interested, I'll call him here" Jeremy said. One of the owners of a company in the field of hospitality in Germany.

"He's here?" alex asked as if he could not believe Jeremy's words.

"Yes, he's a very spoiled child. It's not uncommon for him to go where I go" Jeremy replied so casually. He didn't want Alex to know that this was all planned for him.

"Call him" Alex said. Suddenly the feeling of wanting appeared. He wondered how the girl looked.

"Bob, call Sweet. Tell him to come in" Jeremy told his assistant. The formally dressed man immediately rushed out.

It didn't take long, the man was back with a woman.

Alex turned his head and how surprised he was when he saw the woman who was now crying walked up to him.

"Good morning, sir."
