"I'm sorry, Prof. Gerald. I can't change your schedule without the approval of the President" said the department head bowed. Gerald, who was upset by the conversation he heard earlier, immediately met with the head of the department to restore his schedule as before. Unfortunately, it was rejected. The head of the department was more afraid of Roxena than Gerald who was none other than the husband of their own President.
"Why can't it?! You're the head of the department!!"grouse Gerald. Gerald knew his grunts would be useless.
"S-I'm just a little guy, sir. Please don't trouble me, sir." The head of the department bowed in fear. He even stammered and called Gerald Master.
"It's useless!" Gerald left by stomping his feet. The Head of Department rubbed his sweaty forehead. He must close his mouth tightly so that the position remains safe.

How cute that woman is!
In his room at Gerald was still very upset. Roxena made her work environment uncomfortable. It used to be not this bright, now in every corner has talked about him. Many condescending gazes were cast on him. Although he had the ability, due to Roxena's way of entry and also interference, he lost face here.
How annoying!
Weak!
He has no power to resist Roxena. Really, why is his fate so unlucky. Marrying an influential woman instead of being happy suffers.
When's?
When will this suffering end?!
That stubborn woman, how do you convince her?
The only way is to negotiate again with Roxena.
But, Gerald wasn't sure that way.
Hah .. I better finish my schedule.

It's been a few days that Roxena hasn't returned to the apartment. Roxena stayed in her room. Gerald, who had not followed the news about Lawrence Group at all, thought Roxena was deliberately avoiding him.
Gerald had no chance to talk to Roxena. The woman was very busy taking care of the acquisitions and extreme merge that she did. Within days of the change of plans, all the companies that Roxena had targeted were successfully taken over.
Roxena is setting up the company to be easy to set up. Send his best people to take care of the company that has been taken over.
The wave of extreme mergers and acquisitions he has made is still a talk among businesspeople and observers. However, it looks like the government is not eyeing Lawrence Group's mistakes anymore.
But that doesn't mean they can breathe and relax. Precisely in the future will be more pairs of eyes and obstacles. Bringing change and making a breakthrough is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand.
Good thing I have LS and its power.
"Congratulations, Miss. Your initial plan has been completed. You can execute the next plan."
Erin smiled broadly. "Have you collected all that?"roxena asked with a smile.
"Already, Miss. All the data I have got. When are we planning the next one, miss?"erin asked, it seems that he is also impatient.
"Done gala dinner. Take them out one by one. Our tactical funds are sufficient for all of that" Roxena said. Erin nodded in understanding.
"Oh yes about the gala dinner, get anyone invited guests. ESA Group invited many influential people, most likely the fox masked man was also among them." Roxena remembered about that. Roxena is still curious and if anything, she wants to do something else.
"If anything, what would you do, Miss?"ask Erin. Roxena is interested in the identity of the fox masked man, what is possible ….
"You're interested in him, Miss? You're gonna cheat?!" Erin exclaimed furiously.
Yoke!
He was given the right pen to throw on his forehead. Grimaced. That's sore.
"You're humbling me, Erin?" His aura of intimidation spread.
"Not so, Miss. S-I thought too far. I'm sorry, Miss."
"I want to rob him!!"
"Huh?" Erin flabbergasted.
Robbing that fox masked man, again?
"He's a fat sheep. How could I have missed it if he was near me?"kekeh Roxena's.
"But, Erin. Cheating it .. I want to try it." Roxena said it seriously. While Erin widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Have you thought about the dress you're going to wear, Miss?"erin asked on the way home to Roxena's apartment. The gala dinner will be held tonight. Not felt, the week will soon change and soon it will be at the end of the season.
"What about the dress "Samudra and Space Dancing", Miss?"advice Erin. That's a beautiful dress. It will be the center of attention.
"You're! What are you thinking, Erin?" Roxena's cold voice replied.
"Hehehe, just a suggestion, miss." He showed two fingers forming peace.
Using a booty dress at a gala dinner is a doom search. Roxena believes some of the gala dinner guests attended the auction some time ago. For those who do not know that the dress was taken away will surely think the young master befriended all of it has a special relationship with Roxena. If the original owner of the dress was really present there, it would be a big deal.
"Leona has sent a dress and suit to Gerald" Roxena told reporters. Erin nodded in understanding.
Now, they've arrived at Roxena's basement. Erin carrying a paper bag containing change of clothes to be used at the gala dinner later. Following Roxena's steps, take the elevator to Roxena's apartment.
"I want to talk to you!" Gerald, who was always waiting for Roxena's return, immediately pulled the woman into his room. Erin looked at him. Did he not see wrong? Gerald took the initiative first?
"What?" Roxena did not rebel. Letting her hands remain blocked by Gerald while her eyes collide with Gerald's.
"You're really sneaky and horrible!" The scorn was a compliment to Roxena.
"I'm not going home for a few days, what's my fault?" Responded calmly by Roxena. Gerald's angry sparkles grew bigger.
"You disappeared after making me scorned, you're really mean, Roxena! You're making me die of anger!!"scream Gerald emotion. The check on Roxena's hand tightens. No change in expression on Roxena. It even attracts a smile.
"You're stupid, aren't you?"
"You!!"
"CK!" Gerald took a few steps back, the check on Roxena came off. "I want to make you suffer. My kindness you did not use well. Just feel the suffering!!"
In one sentence, Gerald was at a loss for words. He's racking his brain.
"Your reputation will be ruined because of our household gossip!" Attacking through this.
But Roxena laughed. "I remember, I had a good nickname, a crazy woman, because of my high ambition. My reputation out there is not purely good either. Maybe 50 to 50. Gerald, I'm not too indifferent to reputation. My power and strength are enough to silence him."
"You are very weak, after all. Just now the rumor was already angry like a chicken lost its mother. Ckk!"cyprus Roxena. Look at that red face. Increasingly tickle Roxena's heart to make fun of her.
"Once you want to run away from me? You're too far away, Gerald."
"The salt I eat is already mountainous. You're the one who's just a little bucket already like this. Ckckck was already physically weak, mentally weak as well. How can you be like this when you have the title of Prof. Your professor's brain is dead, isn't it?"
"SILENCE!! WATCH YOUR MOUTH, ROXENA!!"hardik Gerald's. He was about to throw a slap but was blocked by Roxena.
"You want to play with violence, you want to try it, huh?!" Roxena took out her intimidation.
How could he be so strong?!
"Oh!!" Roxena released the check.
"Sophia!" Little scream.
"Yes, Miss!" As fast as lightning instantly appeared.
"Bring Leona's delivery!"
Not daring for long, Sophia immediately returned with a box and placed it on the sofa table and went straight out. "Let's just end this little fight. You get ready soon, accompany me to the gala dinner" Roxena said.
"No way!"reject Gerald directly. His eyes defied Roxena.
"Hm." The cold eyes were getting colder.
"It's still in my hands." That ice-cold tone was threatening.
Gerald's hand clenched. He used Elisha again to threaten him.
Gerald did not answer. He immediately took the box and headed for the bathroom.
Roxena smiled obliquely. That's the only way it works. Roxena left Gerald's room.
"You had a fight with Mr Gerald, Miss?"erin asked after Roxena came out.
"Hm."
"You're okay, right?"asked Erin worriedly.
Roxena smiled, scrambling Erin's hair. "Don't worry. He won't hurt me."

Gerald took off the clothes he was wearing now. The suit she was currently wearing was a matching suit with the dress that Roxena was wearing. Ivory-white dresses and suits are used by both. The effect is not like attending a gala dinner but rather to carry out a wedding reception.
Erin who was driving occasionally glanced back. Both were busy looking out. Staring at urban buildings that are so lively at night.
"There'll be a lot of people after you. You don't stay away from me!"roxena warned.
"Then what's taking me?"ketus Gerald's.
"Don't you care about my reputation?" Reply with Gerald's own words.
The woman is blameless.
Gerald oh Gerald's. Why are you so slow? Roxena showed weakness several times? Is there someone perfect?
About 30 minutes later they arrived at the venue. The gala dinner was held in the newly completed mansion built by the ESA Group family.
It was a vast luxurious mansion. The open area can accommodate many invitations can be seen from the many guests present today.
The modern-style mansion is dominated by white marble and the surroundings are illuminated with round lights that emit white light as well. There are three floors, a fountain in front of the entrance.
This mansion was more luxurious than the main residence of the Lawrence family. Roxena ticking, ESA Group family is indeed want to show off wealth.
Carrying an outdoor theme, this gala dinner is really luxurious. The drink pyramid is high. Wine-wine class atasa. Luxurious dishes and there is entertainment from famous singers. The downstream waiter serves the invited guests. The benches that were provided seemed full. Roxena saw the host talking to the invited guests Roxena recognized as the President of several large companies.
Erin is behind Roxena and Gerald. Observing the uncomfortable-looking Gerald his arm was held together by Roxena.
Roxena hasn't gone far. He is still observing. Although the invited guests were aware of his presence, Roxena spread a cold aura so they hesitated to get close. No one dared to come closer let alone start a conversation.
The host turned his head towards him, after receiving a whisper from the servant. Closer to me with a happy laugh. "Hahaha I'm so glad you attended my invitation, President Roxena Lawrence."
