The Regrets of My Children's Father
Chapter 16

Next day

Karina looks busy preparing breakfast for her children. He did not allow the servants to serve his three children. Karina is more than happy to take on her role as a mother and to serve all the needs of her sons and daughters. Sometimes Karina also educates her children to be independent to do ordinary things that they must know.

For example, after eating do not forget to thank people who have struggled to cook food for them.

The three Karina children enjoyed her breakfast with calm faces.

"Madre will go to work and meet with Nonno clients. Don't bother aunty Josephine." advice Karian gently.

"Ready, Madre." they answered simultaneously.

After breakfast is finished. They did not forget to thank Karina who had prepared breakfast for them.

"Thank you for breakfast today, Madre" they said together as they stroked their distended stomachs.

"Everything dear."

Karina received the sweet kiss gift on both cheeks from her sons and daughters. Josephine smiled faintly at the happiness of Karina's little family. She enjoys seeing Karina stay strong and passionate about her role as a mother and father while caring for her children.

"Remember don't bother aunty!" karina said full of warning.

"Ready, Madre!" answer them simultaneously.

Karina then gets in the car and leaves the courtyard of Josephine's parents' mansion.

Along the way Karina looks dreamy and busy with her thoughts. When we got to the middle of the journey. Karina suddenly braked suddenly when she heard a strong horn sound from behind her. He could not hide his surprised face.

"I did the same thing again." Karina muttered heavily. He was tired of the negative thoughts that had been terrorizing his mind for ten years.

A man knocked on Karina's car door from outside. Karina immediately lowered her car glass and immediately looked down apologizing to the man.

"Next time, take the car carefully, miss!" grunt the man with great emphasis. No expression on his face.

Karina immediately raised her head and looked towards the man. He looked at the man who had helped him.

"Paul McCartney!" chirped Karina with a surprised face.

"Karina-"

The man was also surprised to see the existence of a woman who ten years ago was exposed to a scandal that had shocked the wider community.

Karina accidentally saw the uniform emblem that the man was wearing.

"Oh, yes. I'm in a hurry. I'll call you back later." continued Karina without letting Paul return his words. Karina placed her card on Paul's palm.

Paul was stunned for a long time staring at the departure of Karina's car. He did not expect the woman to return to Indonesia after ten years had passed.

"Curtain! Why is she getting more beautiful after ten years have passed." murmured Paul smiled very thinly back into his car.

In a company

A man is seen staring flatly one by one investors who will enter the part of one of the big tenders that the Gultom group is designing. The Gultom group is planning a luxury hotel on one of Indonesia's remote eastern islands. They need a lot of financial assistance because the cost of development this time is quite draining the funds of his company.

"Have all the investors who entered the list been present?" ask the man with a flat face.

"We still have to wait for one more investor, sir" replied Charles whispering softly.

"Where is the investor? which company is he from? if he is not interested in joining the tender this time. Do not put the company on the list of investors. I don't like the delay!" chirped Ocean with a flat face.

"It's best to start meeting today. We still have other plans today" added Ocean turned his gaze towards some proposals that have been prepared by several investor candidates who are present at this time.

A woman with a flat face walked into the meeting room of the Gultom group company.

"I'm sorry for my delay" Karina chirped with a flat face. There was not a single look of guilt on her beautiful face.

"Our company will appreciate investors who value time more. Rather than understanding your delay!" ocean said without taking his eyes off the proposal he read.

While Charles stood stiffly looking at Karina standing in front of the door. He did not expect the investor they were referring to was Karina.

"I've come all the way from Italy for this project! shouldn't you be able to understand my delay. Because I don't really remember some of the locations in this country." said Karina to make Ocean raise his head and stare at the interlocutor.

"But unfortunately I have already determined which company will join my project!" firmly Ocean stood up from his seat. The meeting was just about to start. But, the man had already moved away from the meeting chair.

Charles also did not know how to act. He could not dare to patronize his superior.

"Charles!" call Ocean to put his hands in his pants.

"Yes, sir." replied Charles quickly.

"I will choose the Budiman and Raharja companies that become our investors. I want you to put them in their respective sections" said Ocean passed from the meeting room.

Karina clenched both her hands hearing Ocean's words.

"Curtain!"

Karina instantly turned her body out of the company Gultom group. He must find a logical reason to overcome today's events so that the man who is his father does not abuse him. The failure of this project will be a big problem for Karina and her efforts over the years. Because his father really hopes to work with the company Gultom group.

When Karina was busy calming down in a park. Suddenly a call came from his cell phone. Surely not for a long time his father immediately contacted him.

[Karina, how could you fail to get the project this time! didn't Padre tell you not to destroy Padre's illegal business!]

[Padre doesn't want to know! You should get that project any way! even if in a way you have to seduce her!]

After that the call ended from across there. His father also seemed unwilling to listen to his explanation first. Because business is one of the most important things in his life.

Karina was unable to suppress the emotions that had been buried in her heart. However, he tried to hold it while still in a public place. He also held back his tears from falling. He must be strong because only he is owned by his three twins.

"Does my path to happiness have to be this difficult? I just want to be happy and live my days caring for my children lovingly. However, fate never seemed to be on my side."
