Mark and Rangga had just arrived at the company, there were already so many reporters waiting for their arrival.
The bodyguards approached Mark's car and tried to protect Mark from the attack by reporters. As soon as Mark came out, the reporters had already swarmed around and asked him various questions.
“How can you take over the Aliseter family company, Mr Mark? journalist (journalist 1).
“Why did Mr Aliester retire so suddenly?” (journalist 2).
“How about your meeting plan with Miss Aliester, when will it be held?” (journalist 3).
Other questions asked by the journalists.
“Give young master a way. Young master will not answer any questions from you.” explained Rangga to the reporters.
“Is the takeover of the Aliester company really something to do with the Rendra family company? how do you feel about this?” one of the other journalists.
Hearing that question Mark instantly stopped, he turned his head with a calm look,
“This has nothing to do with the Rendra family company. As you know, I haven't been involved with Rendra's company for a long time. And regarding my relationship with Luna, we will do it as soon as possible” explained Mark, then he entered and the reporters were stopped by the guards so as not to continue chasing Mark.
While in the meeting room had gathered shareholders who were impatiently waiting to hear an explanation from Mark, and of course there were those who were not happy with this takeover.
When Mark came in they were very noisy.
“Isn't he the kid who was thrown out of the Rendra family?” whisper one of them.
“Iya, I've heard that too. Why would he be able to enter the Aliester family now? I wonder what has happened?” the other whisper.
“Where do you respect the young master?” rangga said loudly and annoyedly.
They all stood up and greeted “Welcome, Chairman Mark.” while bowing simultaneously.
“Please sit.” Mark is very calm. Then Mark started talking “ I know many of the Mr and Mrs were surprised and confused by the news this morning, so you can't wait to see me."
‘’Truely, how can foreigners enter the company Aliester?” Asked a stock owner named Stepanus with a suspicious tone.
Heard the other words of Stepanus noisily.
“Iya, right. How can?” They said to each other.
Mark looked towards Stepanus. He learns that Stepanus has a sizable stake in the Aliester family company and he is also eyeing the position of President.
Mark just smiled, then said, “ This is not what you think. Mr. Aliester wants to rest and wants a walk around the world. That's why he's an early retirement decision maker. Then I as a prospective fiancee Luna, the only child of Mr. Aliester was given the confidence to manage the company and replace him as president. “ explained Mark calmly.
“How can we trust this if we only hear from your mouth. You are from the Rendra family, you could have taken advantage of the Rendra company with this.” Ask the others.
Hearing that Stepanus smiled in satisfaction, as he managed to provoke the other shareholders.
Rangga came by bringing someone in. Seeing that guy the owners of the stock are back noisily.
“Isn't that Mr. Aliester's attorney? what is he doing here?”
“I am Han Lin, the attorney of Mr. Aliester. I want to show proof that it is true, Mr. Aliester has entrusted Mr. Mark Rendra to succeed him as President.” explained Han Lin as the legal representative of the Aliester family and while issuing evidence.
“This is Mr. Aliester's original letter and signature. He gave 40% of his shares to Mr. Mark and 15% to Miss Luna Aliester”.
“What? How could he give more to others than his own son?” Ask them whispering.
Then Han Lin further explained, “This is decided by Mr. Aliester, because Miss Luna is not yet competent enough to manage the company. We all know Miss Luna has never been involved in the Aliester” family company
“Truely too.” answer them and nod.
Hearing this they calmed down, but not with Stepanus who did not accept that position he had long sought was handed over to others.
“Sial! I've approached Aliester and been faithful like an anj!ng petannya, but instead appoint someone else to replace him.” grumbled Stepanus.
Then Mark spoke again, "Everything has been explained. I will ensure that this news will not affect the performance of the Lixing Group company's share price in the stock market, and I will strive to further increase the company's profits. Please cooperate.”
The shareholders meeting finally went smoothly and they were quietly dissolved.
However, Stepanus who also has a strong position as deputy director seems very dissatisfied. He walked with an arrogan leaving the room.
Now only Mark Rendra, Han Lin, and Rangga were in the room.
“Finally today our plan went smoothly.” Rangga was very relieved.
“Mark, you should still be able to control Luna. If not, your position will be threatened. One more thing remember, you never hurt her!” said Mr. Han coldly.
“You tidqk need to worry Mr. Han, Luna problem, I will take care of it.”
It was clear that even though Han Lin was on Mark's side and defending him, there was a cold war between them.
“Haha. It is better now that we go down and give an explanation to the reporters. They've been waiting for us.” Rangga deliberately diverted the conversation.
Han Lin tidied up his files and walked first, then followed by Rangga and Mark.
Inside the elevator the atmosphere remains cold.
“Look Mr. Han Mr. Mark, you guys should still look familiar in front of reporters later. Do not get to be like now.” said Rangga reminded with an awkward voice.
“I know, you don't have to teach me." Han Lin was extremely cold.
Hearing Han Lin's cold response, Rangga was a little creepy and increasingly awkward.
Arriving outside the reporters who had been waiting for a long time immediately swarmed them. Then start throwing questions. Mark and Han Lin also gave explanations calmly.
After giving an explanation Mark and Han Lin went to enter their respective cars.
“We've been through this tough day.” Rangga. It seemed like lately he had been sighing heavily very often.
“There will still be more heavy days than this, this is just the beginning." Mark warned.
“I know. Where do we go now?” Rangga glanced at Mark in the middle rearview mirror.
“Ke home, I was curious how Luna responded after knowing this.” Mark smiled cunningly.
“Do you worry about it?” Rangga asked curiously as he did not see Mark's true expression.
“No, I just have a little pity on him.”
“This meeting plan, you think he will agree.” Ask Rangga back.
“Mana may. I think he's going to hate me so much.” explained Mark as he turned his gaze out the window.
“I think so too. Good luck to you!” rangga said no less cold.

Arriving home, Mark immediately looked for Luna.
“Bi Ina where is Luna?”
“Nona Luna is in the park, Tuan”
“How is it?”
“Nona Luna looks calm, she doesn't look angry at all.
“Alright, I want to see him. Please bring tea for us.” pinta Mark.
“Good, Tuan”.
***
In the garden Luna was picking up a few stalks of roses while singing small.
Mark saw that and he really couldn't guess this girl. How is he this calm? Mark thinks he's mad at you.
Mark approached Luna, aware of Mark standing behind her. Luna spoke up.
“Isn't today a lot of fun, Mr Mark?"
Heh, how does he feel so innocent? Luna hated it.
Luna turned around, and turned her head, “ Then let's drink a glass of tea to calm your mind.” while walking towards the chair in the park.
Mark followed Luna who seemed to remain calm. He sat down and arranged the roses he had picked up and put them in a vase.
“You know the meaning of this red rose?" Luna asked. Mark just kept quiet, then he continued.
"This flower does not just symbolize love.
She looks beautiful, classy and makes a lot of people who see her want to pick it right away and have it. But, this flower has thorns that can hurt the person who took it the wrong way. So belong to him without hurting him, then he also will not hurt the person who treats him well.” j
Mark was not stupid, he knew Kuna was insinuating him hyperbolically.
But Marka said, “I don't understand what you're saying. But, do you now wish I would treat you well?” mark said in a teasing tone to Luna.
Luna laughed, "You think too much of Mr. Mark. I said this just to joke.” Luna was very relaxed, she took a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
Mark also drank his tea and started asking about the news this morning.
“Luna, do you have no questions for me?”
Luna smiled, "I don't. But you're the one who wants to say something to me.”
Mark also does not like convoluted, he immediately justifies and asks, "News this morning what do you think?”
“Which news? There is too much unclear news today. So I don't remember it.” replied Luna with a stupid period.
Mark couldn't stand Luna's response, "Miss Luna, you seem like a woman who can't be loved one bit. Seeing me come with a little bit of guilt makes you forget your current position. Realize, now I am your master.”
Luna smiled hearing this arrogant tone. Yes, Mark Rendra, it's Mark Rendra!
“You have finally shown back your true nature, Sir. Seeing you soft like that makes me tickle. You don't have to wear a mask in front of me. I don't like your mask game.” Luna avenged Mark's humiliation.
Hearing Luna's words, Mark got angrier, “ Alright, I'll show you how much of a jerk I am.” Mark brought his face closer to Luna.
Luna turned her face away from Mark. Withholding all hatred until he bites his lips.
“That's how your hands are shaking." Mark laughs. Sounds pretty awful.
Mark stood up, “About the engagement, I'll arrange it. Three more months, you get ready.” He walked past Luna.
“Wait, I have terms.” said Luna.
Mark paused, hearing Luna say this, he smiled obliquely, “Can you negotiate with me?”
“I will not oppose this engagement, and will not make the public suspicious.” explained Luna.
“Will not make the publick suspicious? What do you mean?” Mark was a little interested, did he need to worry about that?
“Isn't this just a fake engagement?” Luna asked confusedly.
Mark laughed, actually Mark also has not thought about whether only fake engagement or not. But hearing Luna's words, she must still save her pride.
“Alright, say your terms!”
“I want to meet Papa and My Mom.” said Luna firmly.
Mark's corner of the eye slightly moved, then said, “For the time being you can't meet them, but I'll allow you to send each other letters.”
“I beg you, I want to see if they are okay. Is eating regular? is his sleep enough? My father has acute magh, he is always busy with his work so he does not pay attention to his own health. I want to take care of them.” for some reason after saying this, Luna could not hold back her emotions, her eyes naturally shed tears.
“Sorry, for now this is all I can give you. Don't worry about them. Didn't I say, as long as you act obediently, I will take good care of them. I'm the one who always keeps his word." Mark went to leave Luna crying.
***
At night Mark and Rangga in the study, "I've found a clue about John, he's now in Sidney. He occupied a vjilla with very strict guard. There is one more thing, you will definitely be surprised when you find out.”
“What did you find?” ask Mark curiously.
“Our man found out that Jhon had plastic surgery and had his face changed. I think he really has gone very crazy.” explained Rangga, he shook his head. Not thinking out.
Brakk!
Mark hit the table because he was so angry.
“Then did we get a photo of his new face?”
“ That, we don't get it. Our man was found out and now he's gotta be sealed and tortured."
“Send our people again to get a new face Jhon. I wonder why he has gone so far. He will never be separated from me even though he has changed his face thousands of times.”
Someone knocked on the door and Rangga opened it.
“Eh, Rangga, it was you. I was about to go to my room, but I heard you talking. Since Mr. Mark's coming guests, I think I need to deliver drinks.” Clear Luna and put 2 cups of coffee.
“You guys will definitely be very busy tonight, so I made you guys coffee.” he is very friendly and smiling.
“You don't have to bother, it's not your job. I'll ask the waiter if I need it.” insists Mark.
“Haha. Don't get me wrong, Mr. Mark. I'm here also want to say something to you.” he remains friendly.
“Tomorrow I will come to the office, I will be your assistant.”
Hearing Luna's words, Rangga who was drinking choked.
“Drink slowly, it's hot Rangga.” Luna.
“Alright, I'm fine.” A little embarrassed and awkward.
“Sgratitude.” Luna let out her sunshine smile.
Seeing Luna's smile, Rangga became nervous and his heart pounded violently.
Deg deg!
Why did Luna suddenly do this. If it continues like this, he feels he could die of a sudden heart attack.
It's not good, he has to go. They do not want to be mosquitoes among them.
Regarding their conversation I'll question Mark tomorrow morning. Hehe, Rangga still had time to keep his gossipy intentions.
“Mark, I don't think there's anything else we need to talk about, I'm going home. You guys just continue.” cheered with enthusiasm and rushed away.
Then Luna continued her conversation with Mark.
“I'm just bored at home. I want to work, but I just want to be your assistant. You've already announced our engagement plans, so I have to keep an eye on you so as not to tease other women. I don't want people to gossip about you, because I'm Luna Aliester. The person I'm engaged to should be clear of gossip. Otherwise, you will ruin my reputation. I don't want people to be sorry for me.”
Hearing Luna Mark's explanation raised his eyebrows, "It turns out that my future fiance is quite smart. But it seems you'll be overwhelmed taking care of those women."
It was obvious this man was bragging. Luna sneered in her heart.
“Haha..no need to worry, I will get rid of them one by one easily. Since you've agreed, I'll be leaving soon, I don't want to bother you.” he's walking away.
“Are you not my assistant now? you should have accompanied me to finish these files."
“Haha.. Mr. Mark I start work tomorrow instead of tonight.” Luna smiled wryly and rushed out.
Mark smilingly looked at Luna who rushed away, but slowly the smile faded.
His attitude is fickle, very difficult to guess. What are you planning on doing Luna?
Meanwhile, Luna was still standing at the door. He took a deep breath to calm himself.
Originally he was not interested in the company, he just needed to get Papa and Mama back. But, in order to destroy Mark, he must act.
He simply widened the smile before him and acted discreetly to trick him. Hah, it was unexpected that he would act this far. Act devious.
“I've taken pains to plan this, I can't back down. Today was hard enough I had to rest immediately. ” Luna walks towards her room.
