THE DEEPEST REGRETS OF ARROGANT CEOS
I Tell You's

"I want to tell you a story." The old man began his conversation. He seemed to take off his glasses.

"Please, Sir. I'll listen to it." Jinny is ready.

Jinny looked courteous and also respectful to the old man. Not as a wife to her husband, but as a servant to her master.

The old man took a deep breath. He exhaled it slowly as if he were lightening the burden of the mind. "Two years ago I felt uncomfortable. Not because of your presence in this house. But because of the agreement I've agreed to." The old man told.

"I mean Sir?" jinny asked carefully.

The old man put down the photo he was holding. Jinny saw the photo.

"Do you feel constrained by your agreement with Jake?" asked the old man, which surprised Jinny.

"Tu-sir ...?!"

The old man was Peter, the father of Leah, the father-in-law of Jake Thompson. He is a wealthy businessman who owns a 25% stake in GOC. It also has oil palm plantations of thousands of hectares. Unfortunately, he only lives alone. No children or wives. Only Jinny was at his side.

"I feel uncomfortable with a relationship that is only limited to this agreement. But I also can't possibly really marry you officially. I'm already old age. It is not appropriate to be with a woman who has just grown up. I knew enough about it" the old man said again.

Jinny swallowed his saliva. "Then ... Then what will you do?" jinny asked doubtfully.

The old man exhaled. "I want to free you from this agreement. But I still have other agreements that I have to fulfill. What do you think about canceling two deals at once?" ask Peter to Jinny.

"Master, I think Master knows better." Jinny says.

Peter nodded with a disappointed face. It was like he wanted Jinny to help him give an answer. But Jinny is reluctant to give her a choice. He was too young to decide anything.

For the last two years Peter never once touched Jinny even though they were married. Peter valued Jinny more as a child than a wife because he knew enough to be with the beautiful woman. He is just a covenant with his son-in-law in achieving a goal. And it was also impossible to leak the contents of the agreement to Jinny. Both hold to the agreed commitment.

Another Peter, another also with Jinny. Jinny is desperate to break free from his agreement with Jake. Because during this time Jinny often gets pressure from members of the big family. Especially Leah who often threatened him. Even Lea was not reluctant to be rude to him. Makes Jinny not feel at home in the neighborhood of the house. And perhaps if Peter had not been there, he had already fled.

There is a secret among the conglomerates that must always be guarded. There are also human needs that must be met among the busyness of the world. However, humans will only cling to one heart. Somehow the situation and circumstances. So too with Peter or Jinny. They both have loved ones.

So will Jinny be able to get freedom after Peter gives him the green light to cancel the agreement? Then will the cancellation of the agreement make Jake suffer losses?
