"Sir, there's someone who wants to see you" Jevian's secretary said.
Jevian frowned and asked, "who?"
"She said she was Rose's lover. He just said that, sir."
Jevian's face immediately darkened. The ripples of dislike were clearly visible on his handsome face. The secretary wondered, who is Rose? Why did his boss seem upset after hearing his words.
"Let him in!" jevian said flat and cold.
His secretary immediately resigned to let a man who was none other than Bastian into his room.
Shortly after, Bastian entered Jevian's room arrogantly after being invited. His eyes seemed to scan around, then smiled faintly.
"It turns out you're not a random person. Rose is very good at finding prey. Haha ... " Bastian rambled as if mocking Jevian who was willing to go with a woman like Roseline.
Instead of being hooked, Jevian actually folded his hands in front of his chest while smiling lightly.
"Yes, he's smart. He knows very well who is right to be his companion and with whom he deserves to drop his heart" Jevian said, causing Bastian to be upset.
"You're too naive."
"Whatever you wanna say. Tell me, what exactly is the purpose of you bothering to come here?"
Bastian smiled cynically. He sat on the sofa before he was even allowed to.
"It turns out you're quite to the point."
"No need to make small talk. My time is too precious to listen to your pleasantries."
"alright. Get to the point, look, I already know that Rose works as Nanny in your house."
Jevian wasn't surprised Bastian knew this. Seeing that he can find out where he works, it is certain that Bastian was deliberately looking for his identity. So it's also impossible that he doesn't know anything to do with Roseline.
"If it is true, why? What does this have to do with you?"
"Obviously, I'm her future husband and I don't like him working as a Nanny. I'm much more willing to indulge him, so why would he bother working at your residence."
"If he likes it, why not. He himself has no problem, why should you bother?"
Bastian rattled, "do you want to know one secret? He has a big secret and you will be surprised to hear it" Bastian said with a serious facial expression.
Jevian knitted his eyebrows together, "secret? What secret is that?"
"You'd better fire him right away. Well, you know, he's an ex-con on an attempted murder case. And you know, the reason he did that?"
Jevian was silent not flinching. He neither nodded, nor shook his head. He's still waiting for what Bastian wants to say. He could guess that Bastian was a sneaky type of man. So Jevian could see that Bastian would try to vilify Roseline's name.
"He did that because he wanted to ensnare his superior son. You know, for the sake of his obsession, he firmly kidnaps the boss and wife of his own superiors son who is heavily pregnant. He cruelly wanted to get rid of those who stood in his way, but luckily, his rotten plan was discovered by his superior son. He's not just anyone. He is the owner of the largest company in several countries on the continent. He is Rainero Sanches. Rose was eventually imprisoned to account for his actions. And now you hired him? Don't be stupid! Aren't you afraid Rose will do the same. He will hurt those closest to you including your child to pursue his ambitions. You better fire him immediately before it's too late" Bastian said with a serious expression.
Jevian was silent. He looked back at Bastian with an indecipherable expression.
In his heart Bastian laughed happily. He was sure the plan would work. He was sure, Jevian would be consumed by his words.
"Why are you silent? Don't you believe it? I can prove it."
Bastian spoke as if Roseline was guilty. In his heart he was worried because he had no proof. Roseline's case was closed from the public. Indeed, the news of the kidnapping of Delena and Shenina was reported in the mass media, even had made a scene in his country. But in the news is not written the name of the perpetrator. Bastian gets information about Roseline from his hired detective. But of course what he tells you is real information, not manipulation as he says with Jevian.
Within minutes, one corner of Jevian's lips lifted. Then he laughed out loud. He laughs at the stupidity of Bastian who tries to brainwash him with the lies he creates.
If he hadn't heard the real story from Roseline, he might have believed a little of what Bastian said. But Roseline doesn't just tell everything. He has asked for clarification from Axton and Axton confirmed the story about Roseline. Axton asked why Jevian was asking, but Jevian said he would tell it in person soon. He also asks Axton to keep it a secret for a while about what he asked her with Rainero. Axton agreed.
Seeing Jevian laugh out loud made Bastian confused.
"Basic loser. You think I'm that stupid for you to cheat, huh?" jevian hiss is cold. The laughter that had been blaring suddenly turned into a terrifying grin. Even the look in Jevian's eyes had turned sharp making Bastian aghast himself.
"Stop all that stupid crap of yours because I won't believe it anytime. So you better get out of here. And oh yeah, I forgot, don't try to bother my future wife! If you do, I won't stay silent. You will definitely get the reply," Jevian roared in a thunderous voice. Even Jevian's secretary who stood by at the table right in front of the room was stunned. Never before had he heard Jevian's loud voice. It's the first time. Makes the secretary curious, who exactly is Bastian? And why would Jevian get so angry like that?
"What's? You're saying what I said was a prank? You're a very stupid man. You're a company leader, but your brain is so stupid that it can be fooled by a woman."
"Even if he's guilty, even if he's an inmate, why? Tell you what, if he's a criminal, then why do you want to approach him again? You want him back to you, don't you? Wouldn't it be better for him to be with me? What if when he is with you he intends to eliminate your children and wife? Isn't that more dangerous? So better let him here. Take it easy, I'll keep her from doing anything. There is no way he could have hurt my son because he loved my son so much. Besides, he doesn't have anyone who would oppose his relationship with me.. It's different with you having a wife and kids. And most of all, not only those who will oppose your relationship with Roseline, but also the families of both parties. So ... It's safer for Roseline to be with me, isn't it?"
Jevian grinning. Bastian's hands clenched tightly. He's really upset. He thought he would easily provoke Jevian, but in fact, Jevian managed to reverse all his words.
"Buckiekk!" he swore before leaving before Jevian with the flames of rage bubbling in his chest.
Seeing Bastian's departure made Jevian chuckle to himself. Lucky Roseline told him everything. He has also confirmed what Roseline told Axton so he can make sure Roseline is honest. He believed what Roseline said. He can see honesty when Roseline tells a dark story in her life. So there's no reason to doubt Roseline.
He did not want to bother with the provocation from Bastian. What he was thinking about was the change in Roseline's attitude since yesterday afternoon. It has gotten even stranger since this morning.
"Seline, come on, pick up my call!" jevian muttered when his call was never raised Roseline.
