"Well, that's good! Time to prepare a special dinner!" Kresna said excitedly when he was about to leave a clothing store. Where one of his hands seemed to be carrying a paper bag containing the dress he had wanted for a long time.
Kresna will plan for a sumptuous dinner with that special someone in his life. Luckily, today Kinara did not ask him to stay longer to discuss the case at hand. At least that feeling of pleasure was what Kresna had for some time before finally a phone number suddenly made his cell phone ring loudly.
Kresna frowned. "What is it? Could it be that I was asked to come again?" Kresna thought as he read the words on the cellphone; 'Mrs. CEO's office number'.
The feeling of happiness now had to suddenly disappear and be replaced by anxiety that had been mixed with annoyance. However, it can't be helped, Kresna still has to be professional as a lawyer who can be needed at any time, as long as the cooperation continues until the case is finished.
"Yes, hello. Good afternoon!" said Kresna giving a greeting.
"Hello, Mr. Kresna. Sorry if I interrupt your current activities. I'm Isabela," Isabela said from a distance.
"Oh hi, Beautiful Miss! Mm, how is it? Did something happen to Mrs. CEO?"
"It seems so, Mr. Kresna. Mrs. Kinara asked you to come to the office as soon as possible. Her condition didn't seem fine, she even asked me to cancel the meeting which was going to take place in a moment. It seems that there is indeed something important, which can only be she told you. Because I didn't even understand what was going on, I was so focused on the job that Mrs. Kinara gave her to replace her, Mr. Kresna."
"Okay, okay. I'll be right there, Miss!"
"Thank you, Mr. Kresna."
"You're welcome."
Kresna immediately ended the call unilaterally. However, it is possible that Isabela also hung up the phone at the same time as Kresna. There not is time to relax. Kinara couldn't have asked him to come for no reason, after saying that Kinara didn't need his services anymore today. If something happened, it seems to be related to Abimana.
"Did Mr. Abimana come to Mrs. CEO's office?" Kresna muttered and then entered the cabin of his car at the driver's side. He had never used the services of a chauffeur. He likes to work alone, because not accompanied by a burden of discomfort. And solitude made him always feel like he could be free without a hitch.
Seconds after starting the engine of his vehicle, Kresna immediately drove. Unfortunately, the road was busier than before. Perhaps because the lunch hour was almost over, the employees who chose to eat out of the office had already rushed back to their respective workplaces.
This congested situation certainly made Kresna feel uneasy. He was worried that his delay would make Kinara angry. Fatally, if his suspicions about Abimana's arrival prove to be true, there could be new problems that will prolong their situation. Even worse, when Kinara didn't pick up the call from him.
"What the hell is going on?! Is that cheating man still doesn't have the shame to bother Mrs. Kinara, is that?! Really!" grumbled Kresna. "Oh, shit! Why is this road very busier?! I can not arrive quickly!"
There is no gap to break through the traffic jam. On the other hand, Krishna can't leave his car in the middle of the highway. He had to be patient at least until things calmed down in the hope that he could leave sooner. It couldn't be helped, that road wasn't his own and he can not drive out all the riders.

Kinara was able to sit in his work chair after a few minutes of being trapped in a tragedy that she couldn't get out of. Joints that were temporarily paralyzed are now able to function again. When it comes to the heart, Kinara can't get healed so quickly. Abimana's arrival made her even more angry and vengeful. The plan to destroy the man grew even bigger.
A loud and hasty knock on the door managed to break Kinara out of her thoughts. She was startled by the noise that was happening outside. Kresna's voice was heard shouting her name. Making Kinara have to take a breath and pat her forehead. It's too late to come and make some noise! She groaned in her heart.
Even though was irritated by every behavior of Kresna who tended to be annoying, Kinara still got up from her seat. Luckily, the joints are already functioning, so she doesn't have to bother anymore. She immediately took a firm and elegant step accompanied by the sound of the tip of her high heels.
Shortly after opening the door, Kinara found Kresna who looked breathless. Sweat dripped down Kresna's handsome face as if the man had run a one-kilometer marathon.
"S-sorry, I'm so sorry. I'm late!" said Kresna asking for forgiveness for a mistake that he did not do on purpose. "There was a traffic jam and—"
"I hate people who are not on time," said Kinara quickly. The next second, she then turned around, then rushed to the guest sofas in her private workroom.
"B-but I didn't mean to, Mrs. Kinara!"
"Yeah, luckily you've been of some use, so I'll try to give sorry to you. And just come on in fast, don't add to my irritation!"
"Tch...! I should have been the one who was upset after being given false hope about no further discussion. Even though I already had plans of my own," Kresna whispered. "Okay, beautiful Mrs. CEO! I'm coming!" However, he tries to still be professional.
Kresna didn't just walk, but immediately ran to enter the CEO's client's office. His attitude of course again made Kinara unable to think and even shook his head. However, Krishna still doesn't care. He was rarely formal to anyone. However, that does not mean that his behavior violates the norm of decency. He still respects other people well in his way.
"Sit down," said Kinara after she took a seat on one of the guest sofas.
"All right, Mrs. CEO!" said Kresna. Without thinking, he immediately obeyed the order of the beautiful woman who was older than him. "Did Mr. Abimana come here?"
Kinara looked at Kresna. "Have you heard the news?"
"Um, not yet. Just my guess."
"Really? None of the employees told you that news?"
Innocently, Kresna shook his head. "Nothing. I figured it out myself."
"Then how can you know if that man will come here?"
"His gaze."
"What?" Kinara frowned. "From his gaze?"
"Before I saw a look full of anger from Mr. Abimana's eyes, Mr. Abimana wanted to hit you at that moment. However, making a fuss in court is not something appropriate, is it? Mr. Abimana will suffer a loss if he continues to vent his anger in that place. And you are not someone who easily draws back words about the absence of further discussion today with me. There must be something important that you had until to call me back and even cancel your important meeting at this hour. If it is related to the expression of Mr. Abimana that I had seen, it seems that it is true that he intends to vent his frustration in your office. Am I right?"
Kinara gave a sharper gaze and gleamed like a freshly eyes sharpened blade. "Then help me to attack the man, Mr. Kresna. Go to the press conference and tell the reporters that Abimana has had an affair, reveal aland l the evidence we have. Make the man embarrassed!"
"If I do that, your privacy will be disturbed, Mrs. Kinara," said Kresna trying to discuss so that Kinara would be willing to find another way.
"No! I don't care! My divorce has invaded my privacy since it came out in the media!" said Kinara quickly. The expression on her face was more furious. "I would sacrifice everything to make that man crumble and lose his face! You just need to follow my orders, Mr. Lawyer!"
Kresna was very surprised by what Kinara said with red eyes and a very angry expression on her beautiful face. Kinara's lips also appeared to have new wounds, as if they had been bitten with all their might. The woman seemed to be very emotional indeed. However, one thing that Kresna realized at this time was that there was suffering in the woman.
There's no way Kinara could be that angry if there wasn't a big wound in her heart. The woman was just trying to keep herself without showing her hurt.
