"Hhhmmpphh..." The large palm closed over Adine's mouth so quickly that the woman was unable to fight back."Why are you screaming?" Dominik, who had suddenly arrived, did not know that Adine was in the bathroom. He immediately removed the hand that was covering her mouth.Adine rustled again, and Dominik gave her the feeling of dying again. The man stood in front of her shirtless. Only the formal pants he had been wearing since he had been in the office remained. It was as if the man was enjoying the beauty of his athletic chest."Ma-ma'sorry, I'm wearing a bath to soak," Adine said shyly, trying to look down to hide her flushed cheeks. "I'm tired of being in this room."Dominik did not answer, just stared at Adine's body from head to toe. The scent of the aromatherapy soap the woman was using began to touch Dominik's nerve endings. Dominik's gaze made Adine even more naughty. She wanted to leave, but her legs would not budge. For some reason, her feet felt glued to the floor in fron
"Miss Adine, how is she? It's been a few weeks since I've seen you," said a woman in her forties with her hair in a ponytail."I'm good, Ms. Nita," Adine replied. "I have some business with my husband. How is your father faring in my absence?""Your father has refused to eat several times and seems more moody than usual. He seems to be expecting you," Mrs. Nita replied.The two women of different ages walked down the hall to the room of a middle-aged man, Adine's biological father, who had been sent to a nursing home by Mellisa - his second wife—Adine's stepmother.The Rumah Singgah Saudara orphanage is a simple one-story building that houses orphaned and abandoned children and the elderly.They reached the end of the corridor. There was a room measuring about 3x2.5 meters. Adine stopped at the open door. She found an older man staring out the window, sitting in a wheelchair."I'll leave you here," Mrs. Nita said, leaving Adine with her father. Adine nodded and looked back at her fath
The first time her feet stepped into the lobby of the building, Adine stared in amazement. The brown colour with wooden ornaments dominated the room called the lobby. Adine followed where Monica went. Even she could not believe it; the interior of the lobby in this building looked nothing like Indonesia.Adine followed Monica, who was heading for the reception desk. She wanted to ask something about the walk-in interview that had started on the twenty-fifth floor of the building."Adine, you can fill out this data collection form first," Monica said as she handed over a sheet of data collection form that was usually filled out when applying for a job. A few minutes later, Adine finished and handed the form back to the receptionist."Just take it now," Monica said. "I'll take you to the interview room."Adine did as Monica said. From the reception desk, they both walked to the right. There were two hallways. The first hallway housed the elevator, while the second hallway was longer as
"Alex, please don't break my contract," pleaded a woman in a cleaning uniform. She leaned her back against the wall."Do you still want to work here?" a man asked, stroking her cheek seductively. "That's easy, as long as you're willing to do whatever I ask."Adine pressed her back against the wall, still afraid to come out, while the sound of the inappropriate conversation was still in her ears. She only dared to come out when the sound of the conversation between the two people outside faded.A few moments later, Adine stepped out of the elevator. She saw Monica, who was busy with her device, sitting on the end sofa across from the reception desk."Monic, I'm sorry you had to wait so long," Adine said, making an apologetic face."I thought you fell asleep in the locker room," Monica said as she exited the sofa.Adine stared in surprise at Monica, who suddenly stopped. I don't know what she saw behind Adine. Adine was standing with her back to someone who was having a conversation. Mo
"Thank you, the representatives of PT Samudra Biru have agreed to meet with us," Rocky said to Dominik, who only nodded slowly and had a flat expression."What about our presentation, are you interested?" Laura asked with a look that was hard to interpret.Arion looked at Dominik, who seemed to have no interest in the presentation or his meeting with the two pairs of PT Samudra Biru representatives in front of him."It seems that Mr. Dominik still has a few things to consider," Arion interrupted as if he had understood that Rocky and Laura had been subtly dismissed."As my personal assistant said, I can't make quick decisions on things like this," Dominic said as he looked at Arion.Arion was not just a personal assistant closest to Dominic's every move. His job could be more than subtly ejecting clients who were naughty or not in order, except for finding women for Dominik's pleasure."I will contact you as soon as Mr. Dominik has decided," Arion said politely.Rocky and Laura looked
"Mr. Alex, let go!" Adine screamed hysterically in the fourth-floor hallway. She had decided to leave early because of the senior's order to punish new students who dared to be late."Don't be a hypocrite, Adine!" Alex tried to push her against the wall.Alex kept trying to kiss Adine's luscious lips. It was a futile attempt. Adine struggled, shaking her head to prevent Alex from doing what she wanted."HELP!"Adine's cry caught in her throat. Her face paled, and her body tensed at the thought of what Alex would do to her. She was being abused!"No one is going to help you, Adine!"Alex's voice sounded frightening in Adine's ears. She wanted to scream, but she knew it would be useless. Alex grabbed Adine's hands even tighter, lifting her and holding her.Adine could no longer hold back her sobs and screams when Alex's head had managed to slip into the recesses of her swan neck.She pushed hard to get Alex out of the way, but her strength wasn't enough. Adine couldn't help herself and
"Is the master the man sitting there? Adine's mind wandered. The woman stared straight ahead, questions piling up in her head."Sir, you called me?" Adine dared to start the conversation. "Did I make a mistake that requires me to meet you in person?""You think your mistake was small?"The baritone voice was enough to startle Adine. She gasped and immediately turned around. The woman's eyes were perfectly rounded, and she took a few steps back.The figure she thought was sitting in front of her stood tall behind her with both hands in her pockets."Dominik-" The man's cold gaze instantly made Adine's body stiffen, so she corrected her words. "I mean Mr. Dominik."Adine looked down; she couldn't stand those sharp eyes. Her head even seemed full of questions about Dominik's attitude, which suddenly turned cold, far from the gentle one she had received.The woman silently cursed herself. She was ashamed of herself; who was standing before her now was a man with the highest position in th
"Did Dominik's personal assistant really come?" Adine's head was filled with chaotic thoughts. She walked with legs that seemed challenging to move.Adine pulled back the curtain that covered the living room window. Just outside the door stood a figure wearing an orange jacket carrying a brown box.Adine breathed a sigh of relief; it turned out that the person who came and rang the doorbell was a courier delivering a package."This is making me nervous," Adine said with relief.She hurriedly closed the curtains and ran a little to open the door to meet the courier who was standing to open the door."Is this really Miss Monica Widjaja's house?" asked a middle-aged man carrying a package in a square box."Yes, it is," Adine replied as she unlocked the fence.The courier immediately handed Adine the package, which was a large brown box. The beautiful, dimpled woman immediately accepted the box and signed the receipt. Then, the courier left her alone."Miss Adine?"The call made Adine gas
