The Cold Wife
Chapter 3

Bak dongen state, a series of historical buildings of baroque design decorate every corner of Berlin. To spoil every eye that looks. Germany is famous for its Nazi nickname. A country full of history. One of the living witnesses of World War II. In addition, Germany is also famous for the hospitality of its residents, making this country even more memorable for anyone who visits.

Sweet's legs are seen entering a room that is quite spacious. The room is white. There is a shelf filled with books and a soft sofa. The place where he spends all his time.

The girl put her hanbag on the table. Pulling up his chair. He sat there and opened his laptop. His fingers began to play on the keyboard. Completing work that was abandoned. After the meeting yesterday, Sweet did not go to the office. He chose to stay in the room.

It seemed like today he would actually spend time in the study room in hours. Struggling with some important files that have not been touched by him.

The sound of knocking on the door managed to divert the seriousness of the girl.

"Lake in."

A middle-aged woman entered Sweet's room. Approaching Sweet who is still struggling with a flat object in front of him.

"Miss, sir is calling you to his room now" said the woman, who is the father's secretary.

"Okay Shena, thank you. I'll be there soon" Sweet said without seeing his interlocutor. The middle-aged woman rushed off.

Sweet turned off his laptop and tidied up the blazer that was perfectly attached to his body. He rushed straight to Jeremy's room.

"Dad" said Sweet, opening the door.

"Sit down" Jeremy said without seeing Sweet. The man was too busy with the pile of files that filled the entire table. His face shows a sense of fatigue. Because he kept thinking about the fate of the company he had worked so hard to build from zero.

Sweet pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Daddy. His eyes kept watching Jeremy's every move.

A few minutes later, Jeremy switched his job. He looked at his daughter so deeply.

"Sweet, you must know what our current company is like, right? We lose a lot of important investors, stocks continue to plummet. Only you can help, Sweet. Only the Digan't Group company can help us" Jeremy said, massaging his temple. Sweet was silent.

Jeremy handed Sweet a map. The girl looked confused. "Give this to her, take the opportunity to apologize for yesterday's incident. Give her a good impression."

Sweet accepted the map doubtfully. Actually he did not want to meet anything else in a relationship with a man who did not attract his attention at all. If it wasn't for Jeremy, he wouldn't have set foot in that company. A company full of rumors, if there are so many strict rules. Even a little bit of making mistakes, losing a job is at stake. Even many rumors say if life will also be a bet if working there.

"Sweet, Daddy's putting his full trust in you."

"I'll do what I can, Dad. I go first" said Sweet, getting up from his seat. Jeremy nodded. The girl immediately left.

After leaving Jeremy's room. Sweet's headed straight for Digan't Group. Sweet watched the big company before his eyes at this moment. The company is twice as big as Jeremy's.

Sweet stood there for a long time. Gather all hearts to enter. His feet refused to go there. However, the look of the tired face of the Daddy continues to cross his memory. He did not want to disappoint the man again.

Sweet seemed to sigh a few times. Then he ventured to get in there. With slightly shaking feet. That terrifying shadow again flashed in his memory. However, he quickly brushed off all those past memories.

"Excuse me, Miss. I'd like to meet Mr. Digan. Does he exist?" sweet asked one of the receptionists.

"I'm sorry, with whom and from which company? Have you ever made an appointment?"

"Ah, I'm from Jerome Group. I also never make an appointment," Sweet replies as is.

"Sorry, Miss. Sir is so busy today, he can't be bothered."

"Oh, if it's like that I'll wait. Thank you," said Sweet, heading straight for the waiting room. As if forcing the receptionist to contact his superior.

Sweet held back his steps as he entered the room he had visited a year ago. The place where he saw the events that still imprint in his memory. With all his taste, he went in and sat there. Waiting for someone who he thinks is not important at all. Cold sweat slowly washed his face. Resisting the fear.

The beautiful receptionist looked confused by Sweet's stubborn demeanor. He immediately contacted Josh's secretary. A handsome and burly man. Alex's personal assistant simultaneously doubles as a secretary. His full name is Joshua Brianta.

After some time, the man barreled sangar seemed to approach the receptionist.

"Serly, where's that woman?" tanyanya flat.

"In the waiting room, sir."

Josh rushed to the spot where Sweet was. From a distance, the girl kept looking at the clock in her hand. He tries to keep looking calm and relaxed. No one knew if the woman was holding back the fear.

"Miss Sweet?" josh approached Sweet. The girl immediately looked over.

"Yes." Yeah." Sweet immediately stood up while looking at the tall man who was currently in front of him. His breathing choked, as he clearly remembered the man's face. But he kept trying to calm down.

"Come with me" Josh ordered as he left the place. Sweet can only follow from behind. With a raging mind.

Their footsteps stopped in front of a door that read Chief Executive Officer Room.

Sweet slightly retreated as Josh turned to look at her.

"You're not in?" ask Sweet confused.

"No, Miss. Go ahead," replied Josh opening the door for Sweet.

"All right, thank you." Sweet entered the room with alarm.

Sweet was quite surprised when he saw the condition of the room that was so luxurious and dominated by dark colors. Not an elegant word implied in his mind, but rather a terrible impression. Because Sweet hates the dark.

"We meet again, little boy."

Sweet was stunned to hear Alex's voice. The sound came from the direction of the sofa. Sweet's sharp eyes were instantly fixed on the man.

Sweet breathed a heavy sigh. Then, without hesitation, Sweet approached Alex.

"Good day, Mr. Digan." Sapa Sweet tries to stay relaxed.

"Sit down." Alex's orders on Sweet. The sweet girl followed his orders, sitting opposite him.

"Thank you" said Sweet.

"What's your goal?" alex looked at Sweet seriously. Sweet dares to lock Alex's blue eyes.

"My intention is to come here to propose cooperation and would like to apologize for yesterday's incident." Sweet replied, handing over the map to Alex. Sweet himself did not know the contents of the map. Because Jeremy didn't ask him to look at the contents of the file.

Alex opened the map while occasionally glancing at Sweet. The man nodded. Then he took a pen from his pocket and immediately signed the contents of the map.

"You know what this map is?" ask Alex to hand the map back.

"No, Daddy just told you to leave this to you."

Alex looked at Sweet with a meaningful smile. Then scrutinize Sweet's much more polite appearance than before.

"Give this back to your father, tell him I agree."

Sweet was very surprised mixed in confusion. What exactly is the map ? Until Alex agreed to the cooperation without hesitation.

There's a weird, inner Sweet.

"There's still others?"

"Ah, no." Sweet was surprised and immediately got up from his seat.

"Thank you, Mister. I'm sorry to interrupt your precious time."

"No need to hesitate, in the future we will have a longer time, right?" alex says back to make Sweet confused. However, Sweet nodded immediately.

"Okay, I thank you again." Sweet resigned immediately. He quickly left the room full of strange aura. Almost had his heart removed.

After Sweet's departure, Alex grinned. Staring at the door where Sweet disappeared from view.

"That's smart of them, using an old trick to take advantage of me? It wasn't easy. On request, the game will begin soon," said Alex developing a meaningful smile.

Jeremy reopened the map Sweet gave him. His face changed instantly. Sweet who saw that looked astonished.

"Sweety." Jeremy got up from his seat. He approached his daughter who still looked confused. Seeing that, Sweet got up from his seat.

"thank you. You're my daughter" she continued, hugging Sweet. Makes the girl even more confused.

"Thank you." Jeremy's getting his arms tight. He's really happy.

"Dad." Sweet tried to let go of Jeremy's embrace.

"Alright, forgive Daddy, baby. Now Daddy's gonna take you somewhere" Jeremy broke his embrace. Sweet looked at Jeremy full of question marks.

"Don't look at Daddy like that, come along." Jeremy pulled his daughter's hand. They also started leaving the company. And created a thousand questions in Sweet's mind.
