He always forgot what he wanted to talk about, especially regarding their finances.
Well... what can you do, right? The atmosphere was supportive, the soft bed was always ready to be torn apart, and Olive always managed to lure him into continuing their activities until his wife screamed his name at the end of their activities.
"Try opening the dashboard," Thomas instructed as he released their intertwined hands.
"Another hotel invitation, huh?" Olive was taken aback. "Oh, Bae, don't be ridiculous. My body still feels tired, you know. Can't you just do it once? I need to recharge. What if I get too tired and pass out? It's not funny, you know, Bae, if there's viral news about a wife passing out during her wedd—"
Thomas wanted to pinch Olive's nose to cut off her breath entirely and then give her some extra breath right on her lips.
"Just open the dashboard," he said. If he continued to listen to Olive's nonsensical rambling, he would only bec

Marta had been a bit confused all day because of Thomas' rather strange request. Dela's performance from the beginning of her time at Senayan, along with her achievements and mistakes, was being assessed. It was noted for making year-end bonus evaluations. At SAVEFUND, all achievements and staff progress levels in terms of work were always appreciated, including the amount of the bonus received on December 25th each year."Anything else?" Thomas asked without taking off his glasses."No, Sir. Everything has been since Dela's internship year," Marta straightened her back slightly. "What's going on, Sir?""Oh," Thomas smiled faintly. "The branch in Bogor needs a replacement teller. Mr. Matthew requested someone senior to go there temporarily. Among Yossie and Dela, Dela is more senior, right?""Yes, that's true, Sir," Marta still didn't understand what Thomas was planning. As far as her knowledge went, being Thomas's subordinate and handling the administrat

"Why's the grilled chicken at the back of Plaza Senayan so good?" Olive asks, occasionally glancing behind her. She just finished her lunch. Although she only had half a portion of rice, she ordered two pieces of chicken. It's the same as being full, right?""I think it's because of the dining atmosphere, Liv," Yossie assumes. "Because when it's a bit crowded, and the rice is hot and freshly taken from the chicken marinating station, it's definitely delicious.""Yeah, you're right," Olive smiles faintly. "I felt so embarrassed meeting Mr. Matthew earlier.""Oh yeah, you were called to the meeting room, huh?"Olive nods without hesitation. "I got a really stern warning. Oh my God, I kept thinking about that wrong posting incident!""I've become more self-aware too.""Anyway, we need to keep improving ourselves and not easily give up when we make mistakes. Don't let it get us down. That was Mr. Matthew's advice."Having lunch with Yossi

"Couldn't sleep?" Thomas asks, looking puzzled. He thought Olive would have already fallen asleep in her room, especially after she had complained about being tired from work all day. When they returned, Thomas still had to finalize an important presentation for next week's meeting at the head office."Waiting for you," Olive responds with a pout. "Took forever."Thomas smiles faintly. "I'm sorry." He then rubs Olive's head with a fair amount of guilt. He should have been able to finish it at the office, but unfortunately, he was bombarded with requests from the marketing team all day. If everything gets approved, it won't just be the marketing team getting a bonus, but him too.So was it all in vain? No, definitely not! The bonuses he regularly receives from SAVEFUND because of his approved credit requests are not insignificant. Plus, for year-end bonus calculations, all assessments, including target achievement, are used as a basis to determine the amount of t

"But your wife is the same person, duh!" Olive protests halfheartedly."Well, what I mean is, back then, I had to restrain myself a lot, you know, not to cross any boundaries. Do you think your mom threats weren't scary? I was a bit mentally down because Mrs. Seira?"Olive blinks. "Really?""Both of you really put me in a bind. That's why I had to take action quickly. Luckily, God was kind enough to smooth everything out."Olive snorts, but her smile starts to show. Especially when Thomas pulls her into a hug again."Don't get upset about work stuff anymore," Thomas whispers while rubbing Olive's shoulder. "In my opinion, you're amazing for not getting provoked. Although I'm sure you would've acted without thinking first.""It's all because of you," Olive says, adjusting her position so she's half on top of Thomas. She loves it when her ear can hear Thomas's heartbeat there."Why me?""If I don't remember that I'm the wife of M

"Are you... still feeling sad, Na?" Koni asks the woman sitting beside her. Since getting into the carpool, she's kept her eyes closed. Usually, she'd chat or fix her hair to look beautiful before work. But for the past few days, Koni has noticed that Dena is quieter than usual.The recent question prompts her to open her eyes halfway. "Yeah," she replies shortly. She moves slowly and reaches into her bag, grabbing the cigarette box that's always there. Without needing any command, Koni lights it up for her. Then, with a casual motion, she lowers the car window a bit. Observing the road they're traveling, she says, "Jon, just turn off the AC. I'm smoking.""Sure thing, Miss," Jonno, the chauffeur who picks up the woman almost every day, says. He's quite awestruck by her beauty. In nearly ten years, Seira Denaswari hasn't changed at all. If anything, she's become even more beautiful. Her porcelain-like skin, complemented by red hair this time, has remained captivating.

The guard who had greeted her earlier smiled awkwardly at Seira. "I'm sorry," he said, slightly lowering his head. "Someone is looking for Miss Dena outside.""I don't have any guests today," Seira said once again as she took a cigarette from its pack. This time, she had taken it out of her bag and placed it on the table, complete with the lighter now in her hand. Ready to light the tip of her cigarette."Um... but she's really insistent," the guard said.Seira sighed. "You know the rules, right?"The guard sighed deeply. "I know, Miss. It's just..."Seira waved her hand gently, silently asking the guard to leave her room."The person looking for you is a little kid. They caused a scene in the lobby, saying they wanted to see their mom. Their name is Seira Denaswari. There's only one person with that name here, right?"***Olive frowned as she stared at her phone screen with a pout. Her mother hadn't responded to her call. Even

"This is so delicious," said the girl with messy and slightly damp hair. While chewing, her smile never faded. Her eyes, especially, were fixed on the woman in front of her without any fear at all. Even though the woman had folded her hands across her chest, looking at her disapprovingly, this time, the woman sighed deeply.She picked up the water bottle near her, took a sip to dispel the irritation that had been building up because of the little girl."I've told you to go home.""I haven't eaten yet, Mom," the girl replied with a mouthful. She tried to chew quickly and wiped her mouth, which might still have some sauce on it. "I told you, right?""You can eat at home, can't you?""No one's cooking at home." Once again, she took a big spoonful of rice. "I haven't eaten since morning. There's nothing delicious at school either."God! This kid is so talkative! Doesn't she know how dangerous it is not to get enough sugar intake? Seira wanted to

Olive entered the lobby area with a smile that refused to fade. Not because she was holding hands with Thomas. Come on! That was already a routine thing, right? But her steps were light because she was eager to gossip. She had some juicy material to share with Yossie this morning.One of the things that made her excited about work was not just the salary, but also the enjoyable atmosphere at the office. Especially when Dela wasn't around. Well, Dela's name was going to be the gossip of the day, so that's why Olive was so enthusiastic."Why are you so smiley all the time?" Thomas asked, curious. He had been asking the same question since earlier, but Olive never gave him a straight answer. Well, there was an answer, but it was too simple, which was typical of women."Nothing's wrong, okay?"Even though it had a million meanings, especially the part she didn't want him to know."Just don't ask now, Bae," she said, this time her smile was much wider t
