Now Zhie is having lunch with her co-workers in the office cafeteria, even Zhie looks like she has no problems because she looks very cheerful while laughing when she hears jokes from her co-workers.
But suddenly a question from Devan made Zhie silent and even Anna was surprised to hear it.
"Zhie, by the way, do you have a boyfriend?" Devan asked.
Hearing the question from Devan made Zhie blink her eyes, confused about what to answer.
"Why do you ask like that, Devan? Do you like Zhie?" Instead of Zhie's voice, Andien's voice asked Devan.
"I'm asking Zhie, not you, and I'm just asking, after all, someone like Zhie can't possibly not have a lover. Who wouldn't like Zhie, she's smart, beautiful, independent and very hardworking, a dream wife candidate."
It was Devan who explained the meaning of the question, and even the man explained himself to Zhie. Of course, being praised like that, Zhie just smiled embarrassed.
A man who clenched his hands tightly when he heard Devan's words, because he didn't like it, immediately left the place.
When Dimas saw the man leave, he was surprised and of course he immediately asked his boss. The man who suddenly left was Arsean.
Arsean and Dimas were indeed in the cafeteria for lunch, but their places were different, because Arsean's room was different, it did not mean that Arsean did not hear the chatter of his employees, in fact it was very clear to hear because the door to Arsean's cafeteria room was open and Arsean's cafeteria room and his employees were next to each other, only Arsean's room had a special elevator that could go to his room while his employees had to go through the hallway first.
"Your future husband must be very lucky to have you, Zhie, and I am sure that Zhie will be very dear and guarded like glass that is easily broken.
Zhie smiled at Devan's praise, but Devan's last sentence made Zhie stop smiling.
Lucky to have a woman like Zhie? To be loved and even cared for like Zhie is glass that is easily broken, don't treat her like that, she is not even wanted by her husband, of course, Arsean has no pride at all to have a wife like Zhie.
Really, this sentence even made Zhie realize that she was not that happy. It's sad that she's not.
Anna, seeing Zhie's silence, understood what was going on with her best friend and of course made Anna look for ways to change the subject.
"You must not know the latest information, right?" Anna tried to change the topic.
Of course, Anna and Zhie's colleagues immediately wondered what Anna was referring to.
"We got an invitation from Mr. Figo, the company's business partner next door, to come to his wife's birthday party. I heard from Mr. Dimas that all the marketing people got a special invitation, because Mr. Figo feels lucky to have worked with us, and it's thanks to us that he was convinced". Anna felt that this was the right time to divert from the previous conversation, it was a good thing that she hadn't shared this information in their grub chat.
"I'm definitely coming!"
"I'm even thinking about what to wear."
"It's perfect for a matchmaking event."
The words of Zhie's co-workers as they thought about the invitation from a co-worker at the next company.
Meanwhile, Zhie herself didn't even know if she should come or not. She's afraid of seeing her husband with Bianca, which would make her feel hurt.
But if she didn't come, her colleagues would ask her a lot of questions, which would give her a headache.
Just as Anna was about to speak, she saw that the break was over, and of course all the employees started to rush back to their respective rooms.
Zhie was just about to get up from her seat when she remembered that she was supposed to meet Arsean in her room.
"Come on Zhie." Anna invited Zhie to go to their respective rooms.
"Anna, you go first because Arsean told me to go to his room now."
"What is it? Do you want me to go with you?" Anna asked to make sure.
Zhie smiled and shook her head, Anna was very attentive to her, it was a pity that they would be separated later.
The two women began to return to their respective routines.
Zhie was so nervous to meet her husband and no one else.
When Zhie wanted to go to Arsean's room, she met Dimas. Of course, the man immediately gave directions if Zhie just walked into Sean's room.
"Madam, you just go in, the president must be waiting for you inside." Dimas explained and of course Zhie nodded and followed the instructions.
Zhie, who was already at the front door of Arsean's room, felt an overwhelming heartbeat. Just as she was about to knock on the door, a sound from inside the room made Zhie immediately open the door.
The woman felt something strange as she seemed to hear something fall.
Click!
Zhie opened the door, it wasn't locked from the inside.
"Sean-" Zhie stopped calling Sean as her eyes saw her husband with someone else.
"What are you doing?!" Zhie asked, not liking that even this woman seemed to want to get angry.
"Zhie?" said Sean who was surprised to see his wife at the door of his room.
"So this is why you asked me to come, to show me what happened between you?" An irritated Zhie wanted to grab Bianca's hair.
"Zhie, it's not like that, I just helped Bianca who almost fell because her shoes slipped." Arsean explained.
Bianca, who saw Zhie upset, was happy even though she was upset that she wasn't alone with Arsean.
"Never mind, I'm lazy to argue anymore, I'll just go, just continue your business together, excuse me." This woman said goodbye.
Just as she was about to leave, Arsean quickly grabbed Zhie's hand and did not let go.
"What is it again, Sean? I don't want to be here when that woman is around, so if you want her around, I'll just go back to my room."
Sean looked at Bianca, of course with Bianca, Sean would definitely treat her gently and it was rare to see Arsean scolding Bianca.
"Bianca, you can come out because I want to talk to Zhie." Arsean said.
Since she felt like she was being kicked out, Bianca of course didn't accept it, especially at Zhie's behest.
"Why, I'm not even bothering you, so if you want to talk, just talk, I won't bother you." Bianca, who didn't want to leave the room.
"No way Bianca, you won't make me talk twice, so you better obey." Sean said.
Feeling completely thrown out, Bianca, who was passing by, deliberately nudged Zhie's shoulder.
"What a womanizer!" Bianca said quietly so that only Zhie would hear her.
After Bianca was gone, Zhie let go of Arsean's hand that was still holding hers. She went into Sean's room.
"So what's the need for Mr. Arsean to call me here?" Zhie asked, folding her hands in front of her chest.
Arsean chuckled when he saw Zhie like that, surely his wife was angry or jealous because of what happened earlier. Arsean sat down in his work chair and then invited Zhie to sit in the chair that happened to be in front of his chair, separated only by a desk.
"Hmm." The man cleared his throat first.
He looked at his wife before he spoke, and of course Zhie's face still looked angry.
"Arzhie, when you work you should be professional and you should know your limits, even if people don't know who you are, but you have to maintain the good name of my family. So I hope you don't get too close to your male colleagues. And you also seem to like spreading charm so that the men here look at you, huh?" It was clear that Arsean was just as displeased with what happened to his wife when she was with her colleague.
"What do you mean? I have never exuded charm? Even my clothes have never been as short as Bianca's, I even work in long pants instead of miniskirts. And I've never been close to a coworker except for Anna, instead of Bianca, who's always clinging to you." Of course, Zhie immediately denied it, because she felt that she hadn't done what her husband was accusing her of.
"Is it really like that? But I heard what your co-worker said at lunch. I don't like it, because I'm the only one who can tell you, I'm going to fire that man who said that, is he handsome like an artist? With me alone it is very different, because in this office only I am the most handsome.
Arzhie couldn't stop thinking about what her husband had said? This was a defense for Zhie or Arsean's self-praise.
"What should I do, Mr. Arsean? Why do you even care about me? Whether I'm in your life or not makes no difference, does it? So stop pretending to care, Sean, I don't like you that way. Whether other people like you or hate you is up to them, because that's their right," Zhie explained. Zhie explained.
Sean was silent and thought about what Zhie said, was it true, why did he suddenly care? What's wrong with him?
"Sean, I'm trying to get rid of these feelings, so please don't do anything nice to me, it will only give me hope. It's better if you're like always." Zhie tried to smile, but it actually hurt her heart to say that.
After saying that, Zhie stood up and started to walk away, leaving Sean in silence.
Sean felt strange now, even he didn't know why.
Zhie ran to the bathroom, hurriedly entered and locked the door, approached the sink while staring at her face in the mirror, and turned the faucet to make a splashing sound.
Unable to bear the tightness in her chest, the girl finally let out a cry, it really hurt so much. Why is her love like this? And of course it will end badly.
"Is it so painful to forget Sean? Is there no hope for us to be happy like a normal couple? But Bianca? How can that woman be pregnant? I still can't believe it! Am I not so attractive that Sean has to play with Bianca too!"
Zhie finally let out all the emotions she had been holding in, letting them out so she could calm down and focus on continuing her work later.
