THE HUMILIATED SUBSTITUTE HUSBAND
CHAPTER 5: VELYN PRESSURE

Velyn gasped at Richard's voice with a demanding and high tone. The woman was silent without a sound. Only his bead of eyes followed Richard's movements. This was the first time Richard had spoken out to her.

The man closed the door, half-running in the steering chair. Slowly, the car began to run at a moderate speed. His face looked serious.

The two fell silent for a moment, only the roar of the car engine dominated. Apparently, Velyn was still quite shocked. He who is usually chatty and likes to throw protests just flinching from earlier.

“From now on, I will be your personal driver!” firmly Richard turned a glance at the woman beside him.

“Not necessary!” push the Velyn ketus.

“Don't argue, I don't want anything bad to happen to you while driving. Moreover, your mind is in chaos!” richard's voice sounded attentive.

Velyn fell silent again, leaning back as she confirmed Richard's words. He will not focus on driving after the incident that hit him earlier. After all, she did not want to get any more dizzy just to argue with her husband.

The car stopped in front of the company's lobby. Richard hurried down to open the door for his wife. However, late. Velyn had already breezed by the long steps of entering the company. Leaving Richard without a word.

Richard let out a long sigh, staring at the woman's back that was getting further away until it disappeared behind the elevator.

“Again, Sir!” greet Richard to the guard.

The man in the security uniform nodded, throwing a smile as he waved his hand.

Though in his past, let alone say hello, glance at his assistant only reluctantly. Especially just a security guard. The man sauntered leisurely with a whistle, back in the car. Get rid of the car from the loby, to the parking lot of company officials.

Richard secured his seat, immediately opened the tab that had been in the pocket behind the suit. There, he is free to interact with his subordinates, through virtual connections.

“Delon, is Narendra Company also under contract with us?” ask Richard.

“There, Sir. Want to be removed too? Some other investors withdrew their shares,” said Delon sitting firmly in front of his laptop.

“Mmmm ... Just send that contract to my email, now. Oh yeah, all the paperwork's done I checked. There are two that I don't ACC, tell them to change as soon as possible. Then resend,” cecar Richard seriously.

Delon smiled with relief in the country across. He was happy because his master had returned. Take full responsibility for leading the company. “Good, Sir. I will do it soon!” delon.

...\=\=\=\=\=oo\=\=\=\=\=...

If Richard is in a virtual meeting with his assistant in a relaxed atmosphere, inversely proportional to the conditions in the meeting room Narendra Company.

A tense atmosphere surrounded the room. Velyn and several management have held an impromptu meeting to find the best solution to the company's thorny problems.

“Nona, I've cut dozens of employees to be let go. They are also demanding severance and their last salary, Miss,”, said one of the HRD managers.

“Our debt in the bank has swelled, Miss. This alone is not all employees who get a salary,” added the financial manager.

“Then what should we do? While all projects must stop because we need a very large capital."

“Alright, I will try to ask for help from other big companies. Stevy, prepare the proposal. Last night I checked,” he said after hearing complaints from his subordinates. He was calm, even though his brain was at war. “Others, please immediately draw up a work plan one month ahead.”

...\=\=\=\=ooo\=\=\=\=...

Day by day, it keeps changing. Velyn worked hard to go to every company to offer cooperation, but she had to swallow disappointment. Because all the companies he went to, always refused his offer.

Some did not accept his arrival. Given, the news of the Narendra Company crisis has been widespread. No company wants to take a big risk.

Richard was faithful to deliver wherever his wife went. He saw for himself how hard Velyn worked alone.

Dusk began to make up in the sky, Velyn was sitting roughly in the rear passenger seat. Covering your face with both hands.

“Rejected again?” ask Richard a few times.

“Rome, Cad,” pinta Velyn down.

“You look very pale. Want to eat first?” haggard Richard looked at him from the rearview mirror hanging in front.

Velyn shook her head, leaning her back, “Mau came home,” she muttered softly.

“Oke.”

As the car moved slowly, Richard kept an eye on his wife, who was closing her eyes. His face was pale.

Arriving at home, Velyn went straight down. The steps go into the house. His body looks weak.

“There has been no development as well? Basic no becus!” sentak Rendra saw the arrival of his daughter.

“Still effort, Pa,” reply weakly forward step to room.

“Since the establishment of the company, only this time has a crisis so far! You are never reliable, Velyn!” the middle-aged man's beaver.

Richard who heard her in-laws' cries immediately rushed in. He supported the body of Velyn who was walking the stairs.

Velyn ignored him, she grew even more frustrated. Keep walking towards the room with Richard's help. Rendra still sounded angry down there.

Arriving at the room, the woman cried. The pressure after pressure he got, made Velyn heavy stress. Pressure from the father, cooperation with colleagues who all got rejected. The woman fell to the floor, unconscious.

“Velyn!” richard's scream caught Velyn's body.
