Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

Flasback

At a famous restaurant in Jakarta, Kiano had just met with Mr. Mirza to discuss the business they were going to do. At that time, Mr. George had already signed a partnership with Gifer’s company. Mr. George immediately hesitated, whether to maintain cooperation with Gifer or cooperate with Kiano alone? Because at that time, Gifer’s company had not decided at all because Gifer suddenly disappeared without news.

The cooperation contract was delayed for days. That made Mr. George think that Gifer had no intention and seemed to underestimate what the cooperation decision was. Mr. George also thought that Gifer didn’t really want to cooperate with him. After the meeting at Gifer’s office, Mr. George decided to eat at Jakarta XXX restaurant which was located about a quarter of an hour from GF Corp.

When he saw Kiano who was talking with Mr. Mirza, Mr. George decided to stay where he was while eating the food that had been given by the waiter. Sensing that Mr. Mirza had already left his seat at the restaurant, Mr. George approached Kiano, asking about work.

“Excuse me, sir. May I sit here?” Kiano, who was surprised by the arrival of the stranger, couldn’t help but nod and tried not to make a big deal out of it.

“Yes, please. You also seem to be the CEO of the company, which company?” Kiano asked, curious about the person in front of him. Mr. George began to sit down and talk about his purpose.

“Look, before I introduce myself, my name is George.” Mr. George said while inviting Kiano to shake hands. Kiano smiled and accepted Mr. George’s hand.

“I’m Kiano.” Kiano said. Both of them had already released their hands.

“Actually, I have collaborated with GF Corp, but ..” Mr. George paused his sentence and that made Kiano even more curious, he frowned.

“But what?”

Mr. George sighed briefly.

“Huh…”

“Apparently, the GF Crop company cannot be professional and responsible at all.”

“You mean?”

“Yes, I just met Mr. Gifer, but he hasn’t been willing to sign the business agreement I offered.” Kiano took a sip of his coffee that he ordered earlier and after hearing that, he only smiled.

“Is that so?” Kiano asked.

“Yes, I see that you also seem to still need an efficient business partner. Would you agree to work with me?” offered Mr. George. Without thinking, Kiano nodded his head.

“Yes, I agree, but on one condition.”

“What’s that?”

“Cancel your business cooperation with GF Corp first.” Kiano said with a serious look in his eyes and a firm voice. That made Mr. George think a little.

‘So far the GF Corp company has been quite profitable. But, what’s wrong with working with Mr. Kiano and getting more profit? After all, if you look around, Kiano’s company is more advanced than GF Corp.’ Mr. George thought.

“Alright, I agree.”

“Deal?” Kiano held out his hand for a legal handshake as they began their business partnership.

“Deal!” Mr. George confidently accepted the hand.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

As night fell, Belvina was watching television in the apartment while eating her homemade ramen. Since returning from work earlier, she had cleaned herself and the apartment to make it look more presentable. This was the time when she could relax without any disturbance while occasionally sipping the warm chocolate that the girl also made to intersperse eating ramen.

Not long after, the sound of the door opening made her sense of sight go straight to the door. It turned out that the one who opened it was Anggi, her best friend who had just returned from a date with Haris. Anggi looked happy as she put her shoes on the shelf and changed into her house slippers. When she was about to walk to her room, a voice interrupted her.

“What’s wrong? You look like you’re having fun.” Belvina said. Anggi, who didn’t realize Belvina’s presence in the living room, winced in surprise.

“Aissshh, you surprised me, Vin!”

“Hahahaha, I was here all along, you were the one who came in but sneaked in, just like an intruder.” Belvina went back to eating her ramen, which certainly whetted Anggi’s appetite as well. Anggi approached Belvina and sat down next to her.

“Vin?”

“What?”

“Ask for the ramen.”

“Dih, make it yourself.”

“Just a little, Vin.”

“Yes.”

“Take a shower, then go to bed.”

“Later, I also want to watch the latest Korean drama, you know.” Anggi said.

“Dih, you’re really dirty Gi. Take a shower first, then watch it.”

“Aissh, okay.”

“Uh hold on.”

“What else?” Belvina asked.

“I want to tell you, when I was dating Haris, I suddenly missed my family in Pati city, yes, even though I often video call, it still can’t cure this longing, right? I, want to go home, Vin. Don’t you want to go home too?” Anggi asked.

“It’s not that I don’t want to go home, Gi. I also miss my family in Kendal, I also miss my Japanese cherry blossoms that I left behind for years. I don’t know if that tree is still standing in front of my house, or if it’s dead. But the problem is, we’ve been on leave for so long. If we keep going on leave in the near future, don’t you think that Mr. Ian might kick us out one day? We won’t have a job and why would we stay in this city? Even though the original purpose of us being in this city of Jakarta was just healing and vacation which ended up with finding a job and working for years, but still. It’s also where we’ve been living all this time.” Belvina tried to explain at length to Anggi who was now listening thoughtfully.

“Yes, you’re right, Vin. Maybe we can take another leave when it’s been a while since the last one, right?” Anggi said confidently.

“Yes, Gi. We can take at least three or four months off and go back to our hometown and meet our families, ok?”

“Okay, I’m going to take a shower first.” Just about to leave, Anggi’s hand was held by Belvina.

“Gi, I wanted to ask, was it while you and Haris were dating that he didn’t receive a call from the company?” Anggi shook her head.

“No, so what, Vin? Is Gifer’s company in trouble?” Anggi asked.

“Yes, Gi. Earlier, when Gifer and I were dating, there was a call from the office that Gifer had to go back to the office. Gifer said there was a problem that he had to solve. From this afternoon until now he hasn’t updated me again. I became suspicious, if there really was a problem, did it have anything to do with Nara? Because that girl is the only one who always makes trouble with Gifer.” Belvina said anxiously while biting the fingernails of her right hand. Anggi immediately widened her eyes in disbelief.

“Seriously, Vin?”

“Yes, Gi. That’s why I asked, did Haris also get the call? You said no, which means it’s the secretary’s fault, right?”

“That’s right, Vin. And this has absolutely nothing to do with Haris. If this really is Nara’s plan again, I hope Gifer can find a way out soon.” Anggi said. Belvina nodded in response.
