"Stop all this! I am still alive and can still do my job as CEO of this company well!" shouted the man who had just been present and was now standing in front of the door.
"Dery's? Why is he here?" Rere looked surprised by Dery's presence on the show.
"Calm down, Re. He is no longer a person in this company. Rere had no other choice but to believe Liora's words, even though he was so worried this time around.
Dery walked quickly to the small stage in front of where the host was standing holding the last piece of paper in his hand. Dery immediately grabbed the paper and the mrobek then flung it in a direction.
"I will not leave my position to anyone, as long as I am alive and able to manage this company!" dery said again with a loud voice.
"But you've been missing for a week. What's his name if you don't ignore your responsibilities as CEO?" debate one of the people who were there.
"Okay, I'm sorry for my negligence the last few days. But, can it all abolish my devotion in the company all this time? However, it is I who have made the company grow well and gave you a lot of benefits!"
"Can't you give me one more chance? I promise I'll try to maximize the profits we'll get!"
Everyone is heard whispering to each other, talking about Dery's sudden arrival and all the sweet promises of the man.
"What if Dery succeeds in attracting the trust of shareholders again?" Rere looked worried.
"Here you go, just let her do whatever she wants, because soon she won't be able to do it" Liora replied still in her casual style.
Geez, what exactly is this woman planning? Why does he still look calm in this precarious atmosphere? inner Rere.
Dery stared at Liora from the stage, until for a moment their gaze had met before Liora decided it first. The woman then pressed the earphone attached to one of her ears.
"Execute plan B now" he whispered in a soft voice. Not even Rere who was beside him could catch what Liora said.
"okay!" shouted someone from across there, to make a grin on Liora's face visible.
The woman appeared to lean her body against the back of the chair while sitting on her legs, her gaze straight forward where a large screen featuring the company logo was seen right behind Dery and the host stood.
However, a second later the image on the screen turned into a video showing Dery utilizing a company's transportation car for shipping goods, he made camouflage to send drugs. Of course, all of that was very surprising to everyone in the room.
Not only that, the video also shows how Dery ordered to use dangerous illegal materials to make products from their company. During this time there have even been some demands received by the company because the victims of the products they produce have been washed out a lot.
However, Dery managed to cover all that from shareholders and other company officials. He used his connections and his power in the company as well as in the dark business to hide all that.
"No! All this is not true! It's all slander! I've never done any of this!" yelled Dery with a panicked face.
"When you have to trust me, I've sacrificed a lot to advance this company, where I might do it all!" again, with a red face.
The atmosphere of the room that had been quiet since then had now turned rowdy because of the video that had just been played. Dery seemed surprised by everything that happened, he tried to get someone to stop the video playback, but the video continued until it ended with the entrance back open.
Everyone now turned their attention again to the few in police uniform who came. They immediately approached Dery and caught him in front of the crowd. The man could not dwell anymore, he could only resign and follow the law enforcement who took him through the special elevator, to avoid greater chaos in the company.
"I said what? He can't do anything in this company anymore" said Liora, who has since been calm, even though her face looks flat.
"You planned all this?" rere asked with widened eyes, surprised instead of playing.
"Now do you believe me?" Liora answered with a question back.
"Plan succeeded. Thank you," Liora said to the earphones in her hands, then stood up.
"Come, the show is done," he continued while tidying up his slightly tangled blazer.
"But what about the decision?" Rere still did not understand Liora's purpose.
"Just calm down, I'll make sure you become the next CEO of this company," Liora replied then turned around and began to step foot out of the room.
Once in the company lobby, they meet Charly who also just got off the other elevator. Liora had smiled at the man who had helped her carry out this plan.
Back flash.
The sound of her phone ringing, distracting Liora when she had just gotten out of the bathroom, her forehead wrinkled when she saw that there had already been three missed calls from Charly.
"What's he calling me these nights?" muttered Liora while sitting on the side of the bed. Just now she was about to call Charly when her phone came back ringing with the same call.
"I'm sorry I was in the bathroom. What's up?" liora asked as soon as she warmed up the phone from Charly.
"I'm in front of your apartment unit" said the man who made Liora instantly widen her eyes.
"Huh? What did you come here for?" liora asked as she stood so surprised.
"There's something I have to say about Dery, quickly open the door before I'm supposed to be a stalker" Charly said in an annoyed tone of voice.
"In a moment, I change clothes first," Liora replied before turning off her phone connection and then throwing the phone in any direction. The woman ran towards the closet, she picked up the original clothes and then put them on.
"Why do you have to come at night like this?" grumbled Liora while wearing her clothes.
Not without reason he was upset with Charly, the man did not know the time sometimes. When it was eleven o'clock in the evening, Mak Onah and Davi Sudha were fast asleep since a few hours ago, and Charly suddenly came at a time like this.
With her hair still wet, Liora ran from the room and opened the door of Rere's apartment she now lives in. In Liora's heart also harbored a longing for Charly after these few days they had no news at all.
Meanwhile, Charly cleared his throat slowly while staring at his dead phone. What did he say? Change clothes? Why did he change clothes for the night?
Charly stared at her clothes tonight who only used an ordinary t-shirt that she wrapped in a jacket to keep herself from the night breeze. I don't know why Liora's words just made her heart flutter, with a thought she couldn't control.
Charly twisted her body when she heard the apartment door open, she frowned as soon as she saw Liora's appearance tonight. There was nothing strange, the woman was just wearing ordinary home clothes. It's just that the woman's hair looks still wet, until there is water still dripping wet the gray t-shirt she wears.
"You wash your hair this night?" ask Charly.
"I just finished exercising, so it's not good not to wash my hair" Liora replied. Though this afternoon he had done hair treatment in the salon, but because he was doing sports and martial arts training, he again felt his hair was limp and smelly.
Charly nodded his head as he stepped in, following Liora who walked first. In her heart she smiled, feeling funny with her own thoughts about Liora.
"What do you want to drink?" liora asked as she turned to Charly while telling Charly to sit down with her hand gesture.
"Anything" he answered then sat in a pantry chair that resembled a bar. Charly quietly noticed all the movements of Liora who was preparing hot coffee for them.
"Okay, now what do you want to say?" liora asked as she put two cups of coffee on the bar table, then sat down next to Charly.
"Dery's gone, he's picked up by Roxi's men" Charly said straight to the point.
Liora widened her eyes. "really? So now the house is empty? Can I go back there?"
"Wait a few days, we have to look at the situation and make sure that it's free of any hidden tappers or cameras that they might have placed to watch over us and Davi" Charly replied.
Liora nodded, agreeing with Charly's proposal.
"Isn't tomorrow a meeting of stockholders and the board of directors? Looks like we should do a backup plan just in case," Charly said again.
Liora nodded back. That night the two barely sleep to set up another plan, if Dery later tries to destroy their plan.
