Adelle's day is going well. Little by little, he was able to close his heart wounds. Now he will focus only on his work. She wanted to show the world if she was okay with no husband by her side.


"Is this a list of people who ordered our products?" adelle asked her Secretary.


"Yes, Mom. Hm, there is actually a big offer that just came yesterday. It's just .. "the Secretary answered looking confused.


Adelle looked at her secretary, "Jessy, what's up?" tanyanya wants to know.


Jessica looked at Adelle. He took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. Then she told Adelle something she knew about the customer.


"Oh, you mean he's a con man?" adelle's question caught Jessica's story.


"Yes, more or less like that. Realize that I still haven't reported it to you." Jessica replied hesitantly.


Adelle was silent for a moment. He then stood up from his seat and walked up to the bookcase located not far from his desk.


"I see what you mean, Jessy. If so, they want to harm this company, right. Give me my answer, if we don't take any orders for another year. We reject any kind of booking that company makes. You must understand what to do next" said Adelle gave his order. He picked up a book and took it to his desk.


"Good, Mom. I will say it according to the words of the Director. Oh, yes, Mum. Hm .. i-that's, there's one other thing I want to tell you" Jessica said, stealing a glance at Adelle reading the book.


"What else is it? Just say it," Adelle replied.


"The big gentlemen and the big madam contacted me. He both asked why you have been so difficult to contact lately. Because I don't know what to answer, I say, if you're busy. Many important meetings and factory review. Sorry, Mum. I didn't mean badly by answering both of his questions. It's just that "Jessica's words were cut off by Adelle.


"It's okay. I'm glad you're helping me. Sorry, yes. I'm troubling you. I just haven't been able to tell Papa and Mama the truth about my divorce. If they found out, their proud daughter-in-law cheated on them until they got pregnant, wouldn't they be in shock?" adelle said smiling wryly at Jessica.


Jessica surprised. He immediately widened his eyes to hear Adelle's confession. He didn't expect, if his Boss' ex-husband was a crazy bastard.


"Huh? what did Miss Adelle say just now? James was cheating on her until she got pregnant? you crazy man. I guess he's a nice gentleman who's polite and friendly. Turns out he's just trash!" jessica in my heart.


Jessica's unhappy face. Looking at her Secretary's wry face, Adelle just smiled.


"Hey, hey ... Why do you put on a grumbling face like that? smile, buy coffee and get to work" Adelle said.


"Oh, i-iya, Mom. I'm sorry to daydream. Do you want coffee too?" haggard Jessica.


Adelle nodded her head, "Can. One Americano ice," Adelle replied.


"Good, Mom. I'll get coffee soon. Excuse me," said Jessica to leave Adelle's study.


Adelle momentarily stared at the departure of her Secretary. He then turned his eyes to look at the book on his desk. He continued reading the book.

Somewhere else. In a luxury hotel. A car pulled over and stopped at the hotel lobby. The main doorman opened the back door immediately. From the car, it looks like someone is coming out.


A handsome man with a grey suit stellan, set foot on the floor. He stood in the lobby staring deep into the hotel where he stood. Behind the man appeared another person.


"Sir, is there something wrong?" ask someone to whisper.


The handsome man in the ash suit was silent for a moment staring around. Before he answered the question of the other man by his side.


The man walked into the main door of the hotel. Inside, a middle-aged man and several staff lined up to welcome the arrival of the gray-clothed man.


"Good day, sir. Welcome," said someone smiling.


"Ah, Hello Mr. Manager. It's nice to see you back. How's things going in here? any problems?" asked the man to look at his interlocutor.


"Nothing, sir. Everything went well, according to the written report." replied the Manager.


"Good," replied the man in the gray suit.


"Ah, you must be tired after a long journey. Th-please, Sir. Your room has been cleaned" said the manager.


"Yes" replied the man.


The man walked back and went to the elevator. He would take the elevator to go to his room.


Meanwhile, a few steps back. The manager and another man who was the assistant man in the gray suit were chatting.


"Sir, you're really running what I'm saying, right?" ask the Assistant.


"Right, Sir. I asked the janitor to repeat cleaning Mr. President's room up to three times. I've made sure everything is clean" replied the Manager.


"All right, I believe you. You must have known, what would happen, if Mr. President saw his room dirty and untidy. You will all be over" said the assistant.


"I understand" replied the Hotel Manager.


The two followed the man in gray. They were going to take him to the room. They took the elevator. The manager presses the button in the elevator according to the floor of the room. The atmosphere was calm, everyone was silent. Until the man in the gray suit opened the conversation.


"Manager .. "call the man.


"Yes, Mr. President." replied the Manager.


"Please prepare the room for the afternoon meeting. And please provide a list of furniture companies that you can recommend" said the man.


"Well, I'll give you a list before the meeting. Are there any special things to prepare besides the room?" ask the manager to look at his boss.


"No need" replied the man.


Not long after they reached the destination floor. The man in the gray suit and his Assistant came out from inside the elevator. The manager says goodbye to returning to work.


"I'm just dropping in here, sir. Please contact me personally, if you need anything. Excuse me," said the Manager.


"Yes, thank you for driving me." replied the man.


The man took out a card from behind his suit, and he immediately attached it to the door of the room. The door opened, and it looked like a huge room. Indoor, there is a living room, a room, bathroom, sports room, lounge and dining room. Hotel rooms with super luxurious and complete facilities are made specifically for Hotel owners only. It was the President's special Suite Room.


"Please rest, sir. We've been on a long journey, you must be tired. I'll go and come back an hour before the four-afternoon meeting. Excuse me" said the Assistant.


"Yes, you also rest" replied the man.
