The Love of Mr. Erick
GCTE | Chapter 22

Time passed by unknowingly, Erick and Elena were still equally compact in work affairs, putting aside personal problems between them, wherever Erick was there must be Elena who was ready to be on standby. Many client meetings and appointments they attend. A month passed, the project they worked on was almost 100% successful in increasing profits and large profits for the company.

As Erick promised in the meeting room at that time, the company celebrated the magnitude of the great success they achieved. Special teams who work on projects together to be successful as now, will be in boyong riding luxury yachts that have been booking companies for them. The news created a commotion in the office at this time. Many congratulate not a few other employees who are jealous of the achievements they are experiencing today. While the name listed on the luxury yacht holiday invitation was celebrating with joy.

Erick involuntarily thinned his lips when he saw that his subordinates looked so happy at this moment. Struggle will not betray results.

The other with Erick. Elena is now in a state of concern. During this month Ratna's mother requested that she and Bagas get to know each other first. And during that time also her relationship and Bagas closer, although constrained by the busyness of each but both still took the time to always meet and spend time together to get to know each other personally.

It is not the worry that is taking him at the moment, but also the worry. Lately every time Elena visited the health condition of Ratna's mother as declining. And that made him anxious.

"Sir Erick, for the party celebrating our success tonight, I'm not here for you."

Erick stopped his activities for a moment staring at Elena who was standing across from his desk. "Why? you also have a big hand in success this time, you should have come so that others are happy."

"I know, I feel flattered because of that. But at the moment my foster mother's condition is declining sir, she is sick, so I have permission to take care of her" said Elena. Erick already knew if he was an orphan, and already knew about the orphanage that he had been caring for since childhood. Maybe the guy will understand.

"That's it." Erick looked bright for a moment. "Well, when it comes to parents we can't be helpless."

"Thank you sir" Elena said with a smile.

After returning home from work, Elena packed a few strands of her clothes in a small suitcase. Dea came with a drink sitting at the table near Elena packing her clothes.

"How many days are you gonna stay for Elena?"

"Other, maybe a week. Luckily I had permission from the boss and he didn't mind so I wasn't worried about that."

"Is Miss Ratna's disease serious this time?" dea asked later, feeling worried. However, his parents' house was right next to the orphanage, until his relationship and Ratna's mother were tightly intertwined and there he could get to know and befriend Elena.

"Either. I've got information from Marvin's sister who had taken care of the mother, heart disease in the mother's suffering did need special care, also the mother there is a problem with her stomach, the stomach, I hope it won't get worse."

"It's so bad .. I hope Ratna's mom is okay." muttered Dea.

"Aamiin," said Elena. "Oh yeah, you're okay here alone?"

"No problem, I can call my friend over to accompany me."

"All right, I'm going ya." Elena was ready she took her sling bag, stuck it on her shoulder as well as her cell phone.

"Be careful. Don't speed," Dea's message. "Later if I wasn't too busy, I'd visit" he added.

Elena nodded, she understood Dea also wanted to see the condition of Ratna's mother, but the long-range constraints made Dea have to be dejected to choose a stretch of time.

"Then I'm gone, bayyy!" Elena waved a glance.

"Byhhhh!" Dea waving reply short.

"It was done, sir. Monthly mailing has been sent to the address of the orphanage of love." said the man who looks older than him.

"good. I don't want any delay in sending help to the parlor" said Erick, looking back at his aide.

Mr. Edy, the man she trusted to represent her gave her help to the orphanage where Elena grew up. Through Mr. Edy also Erick entrusted Elena's education, he ordered Mr. Edy to give Elena a full scholarship in order to achieve her bachelor's degree. Before finally he himself led Elena to be able to work in his company. All the facilities that Elena has experienced so far cannot be separated from her interference. Erick has always been with Elena, helping the girl though not directly but through the aides he ordered.

"I heard that the mother of the parlour over there was in a lot of pain. I want to send the best doctor to treat her."

"I've offered her a master, but the caretaker named Miss Ratna was too shy, she said she had received a lot of help so far. He also advised that all the help was his orphanage child, he did not need it, so about his words sir."

Erick let out a breath. "Alright. you just monitor it for a while, if anything happens immediately report it to me."

"Good young master." Mr. Erick then resigned after saluting.

Erick stroked slowly, observing the hairpin in his hand, looking away at the distant thought back about himself and Elena.

If I had that much courage to overcome all the obstacles that drove us. You alone give us distance. It seems like I have to try even harder because I don't want any coercion between our relationships.

**

In the middle of her journey to the orphanage, Elena was surprised when there was a motor sport that blocked her path. He was so shocked he suddenly pressed the brake pedal.

Upset at being also in the rush of time, seeing who had suddenly dispelled the distance.

"Elena!" someone on the bike called him. He opened the helmet that covered his face until now regardless making Elena stunned beyond measure.

"Vicky ... "

He had not expected before that man could know his whereabouts. Vicky got off his bike and walked towards Elena.

"How many times have I called you, why didn't you pick it up?"

"Stop right there!" hadang Elena.

"I'm not ashamed of you. Our relationship is over, don't bother me anymore!" firmly Elena. Indeed, how many times since the incident caught the man, Vicky tried hard to contact him once, although Elena had changed the phone number of the man was always able to contact him.

"I'm here just to warn you Elena" Vicky said in seriousness.

"Stop being the corporate slave of that jerk Erick."

"What do you mean?" Elena frowned, somewhat offended as well by Vicky's remark.

"I said really, Elena. He ruined my life. You recall? he took advantage of Gisel, the woman of the night I slept with, somehow Erick the bastard threatened him by giving photos of my bugill with him so that it could spread on the internet. Now my life is ruined after that fucking Erick shared my por*no photo with Gisel, leaving me to get kicked off campus in a dishonorable way, fired from my job and now I have no place in society."

Vicky's long explanation made Elena's head spin. Can Erick really do something like that?

"Just Elena, what I'm trying to tell you is stay away from that crazy boss of yours, he's cruel and mysterious, I don't want your fate to be the same as mine!" vicky said he was warming up.
