"Gista." Randy's voice sounded soft, followed by a gaze so deep towards the figure now standing in front of him. Randy seemed unsure of the sight captured by his jet-black eyes. There was a woman he hadn't seen in a long time. Even tried to forget and bury alive all memories or anything related to that woman. "Excuse me, Sir." Alvin, Randy's personal assistant, appeared to address him. It was he who brought another woman to be brought in to meet with the leadership. "Y-yes," Randy responded hesitantly. "What's up?" "Sorry to disturb your time. I'm here to bring and introduce Miss Agista, who is an expert staff from Velfire Singapore. They intentionally sent Miss Agista so that for the next two months, she can be Mr. Randy's partner in handling the Velfire tender." For a moment, Randy was stunned. Making sure of the person now standing in front of him. Whatever fate brought that beautiful woman suddenly and now visited him after so long. Is this God's play? Why Agista, of all p
Randy accelerated his car above average speed to quickly return to the Akasia building. Glancing at the circular clock on his wrist, it was already five in the evening. Especially when he checked his phone, there was a series of unanswered calls and numerous text messages that Ghea had sent specifically for him. Randy then sighed deeply. He could certainly guess. His wife was probably angry or even furious with him right now. How could she not be? He had broken his promise today. He remembered this morning when Ghea had pleaded to be accompanied for lunch. And, in reality, he had skipped that promise because he had to deal with some business, whether it was important or not, with Agista. That's why, upon reaching the office, Randy immediately took large strides towards the tenth floor. Passing by Ghea's office, he even took the time to check specifically. Who knows, his wife might be on standby, and he could take her to the office for a while. However, Randy's hope seemed in vain.
"How's it going, Ghe? Feeling better now?" Joshua asked as he had just finished the task assigned by Mrs. Sonia. Meanwhile, Ghea, busy creating a diagram on her personal computer, just nodded briefly. After a few minutes, she finally responded to Joshua's question. "Don't worry. I'm feeling better now. Yesterday, I took my medicine as soon as I got home, and the stomach pain quickly subsided." Joshua nodded, then quickly resumed his lecture. As a friend who knew Ghea's personality and habits very well, he understood why the girl next to him complained of feeling sick yesterday afternoon. "That's why, knowing you have gastric problems, don't make a habit of skipping meals, Ghe. It's still manageable. If it gets severe? You'll be the one in trouble." Ghea smiled sheepishly. It was quite common for Joshua to scold her like this. "Yeah, sorry. Besides, I was late for lunch yesterday because I had to wait for Randy. I thought he would remember our lunch date and show up on time. Turns
"Seriously, do I have to come too?" Ghea pursed her lips. It was Sunday, and she should be enjoying her day off by relaxing or lounging on the bed. However, Ghea's joy was disrupted when Randy suddenly notified her to attend an office event scheduled for tonight. Why did there have to be a party? Ghea was not fond of attending crowded events like that. "Well, you must come, my love," Randy replied gently. Approaching his wife lying on the bed, he came closer. Then, he reached for Ghea's body, pulling her into his embrace. "You're the boss's wife. It wouldn't look good if I come alone." "You can go with your assistant, Alvin, Uncle," Ghea tried to persuade. Swearing for any reason, she had already prepared tonight to relax while watching a Korean drama. "Alvin is definitely coming. But, it's boring if we always go together. Now that I have a wife, she should be empowered. Or do you want me to go with another woman?" Ghea immediately glared. At that moment, she pushed Randy's body
Randy affectionately led Ghea into the convention hall where tonight's party was held. Just a few steps in, Darwin, Kennedy, along with their respective wives, came to welcome them. "Welcome, the not-so-new newlyweds. You're really late," Darwin greeted, and Randy immediately retorted with a scoff. "Sorry, are you new residents in Indonesia, especially Jakarta? Don't you know that Jakarta is often congested? Besides, it's Sunday, Win. Everyone comes out to enjoy the weekend." Darwin looked dismissive. Whatever Randy said or defended, he had to be able to refute it. He was tired of always losing arguments with his cousin. "Traffic jam? Oh, come on. Evidence shows that Kennedy and I could come on time. Your excuse is just that—an excuse," he said with a wide smile. Randy just smiled. So casual in responding to Darwin's remarks, which were intentionally attacking. "Please understand, bestie. I live in an elite housing complex, so the route is always crowded and busy. It's very diff
Ghea looked quiet while chewing the food in her mouth. Meanwhile, her thoughts wandered, reflecting on Luna and Veronica's words last night when she met them at the party. "Are you sure you don't want to hurry up and have a child with Randy?" Luna asked at that time, immediately diverting Ghea's attention. "I'm still in college, Uncle. Besides, I'm still very young. Just 23 turning 24. Isn't it too rushed?" Luna smiled. The woman spoke again. "Do you realize who you're married to?" Ghea nodded. Inwardly, she knew who her current husband was. "I'm aware, Uncle. Randy Walters. The only child of Adrian and Verona Walters. Heir and leader of the Akasia Group, right?" "Yes. And I'm sure you know that many are eyeing your husband out there, right? Some are even willing to happily offer themselves as mistresses or provide comfort for free." Ghea nodded again. "Recently, even an ex of Uncle Randy's suddenly showed up. And she's asking to get back together." Luna immediately snapped h
Since they had a comprehensive health examination yesterday, today Randy specifically accompanied Ghea to the hospital to check and hear the results directly from the doctor. In his heart, Randy was determined that regardless of the results, whether good or bad, he would still accept Ghea for whatever reason. His two cousins also gave such advice. "Don't let your marriage fall apart just because of the child issue, Ran. I know you're a wise person. I hope the doctor's verdict, whatever it may be, doesn't change your attitude towards Ghea." Kennedy said this very seriously, trying to provide enlightenment so that Randy wouldn't make the wrong decisions. "Don't worry, Ken. I'm not a shallow guy who values marriage only for offspring. I've promised to God to take care of Ghea for the rest of my life, in joy and sorrow. So, I'll keep that promise." Randy was not playing around with his words. He had ingrained in himself that whatever happened in the future, he would continue to suppor
"It seems like I should just give up. Since ancient times, from the primordial era, Randy is not the type of guy easily tempted. Especially now that he's married. It's pointless to seduce him no matter how hard I try. It won't work." Agista wore a frustrated expression while talking to someone in a coffee shop. She even looked disappointed because her efforts had not yielded any results. "Oh my God, Agista, it's only been a few attempts, and you're already giving up. You claim to love Randy. Can't you give it a little more effort?" Agista looked up. She, who had previously lowered her face in sorrow, now stared straight at her interlocutor. A sharp gaze, seemingly annoyed by the provocation she had just received. "Giselle Donovan, since you believe you're pretty, why don't you try seducing Randy yourself? Go ahead. Prove that you can do it." Giselle, the person who had been talking to Agista, was visibly annoyed. Why should she be the one to try? Just so you know, she invited Agi
