Chapter 12 - CHALLENGES

Liliana looked worriedly at Arsen, who was cleaning her room. At the same time, Liliana saw her friends were a little uncomfortable to see what Arsen was doing. in fact, Lenny began stroking Liliana's back as a sign of his support for Liliana. Lenny thought that Liliana was being humiliated by the state of Arsen, who worked in her room at this time.

Some of Liliana's co-workers began to look at Liliana with concerned looks. They didn't know what was happening in Liliana's chest. They think Liliana is the type of feeling or shy girl who will be ashamed of the current state of affairs. They believe Liliana will be prestige, with the state of Arsen, who is cleaning his room. Because according to the minds of many people, Liliana's position as an architect has a bright future. And it's different from Arsen, who is just a Cleaning Service.

Liliana is not at all embarrassed by the entry of Arsen into this room because, since childhood, Liliana was educated by her mother not to look at someone from her work; no matter how low someone's work is, it will always be considered the same by Liliana. Liliana was educated not to like a criminal or an arrogant person rather than condescending to people whose jobs are low in the eyes of many people.

Arsen began to collect all the garbage in this room to put it in the wastebasket. He did so with indifference and without caring about the many eyes that were looking at him. Having finished collecting garbage and sweeping, Arsen began to prepare to mop this room.

At this time, Liliana had already planned something, but she chose to work on it at the right time. And the time came when Alex and Billy went into her room, followed by Mike, at first they pretended to come to ask Rani's plans, but, Liliana knew, they had planned. Because of that, Liliana was waiting for the right moment to carry out her plan.

"Wew.... there is a Cleaning Service here. hahahaha...it's really a pity, so the Cleaning Service, every day must clean up people's dirt, Wek Wek...it's really different with a finance director like Mike, it's really different," Alex said in his arrogant style, while Billy, already busy laughing mockingly while throwing garbage in the trash can to the floor.

Mike himself, still standing behind Liliana, as if a good man who was not involved with all those taunts and deeds of Alex and Billy.

Liliana, who felt it was time to act, stood up and immediately squatted down to lift the trash that Billy had previously thrown onto the floor. Liliana's actions made Billy's face flushed; he did not expect that Liliana would humble herself like that; Mike also immediately shouted to forbid Liliana from picking up garbage while at the same time, Liliana felt there was someone who had squatted beside her to help her pick up trash on the floor.

Liliana turned her head to the side, and her two eyeballs met the two eyeballs of the handsome face owner looking at her while lifting the trash with his hand. That face was the face of Arsen, the man whose face always thrilled Liliana; from the beginning, Liliana saw Arsen.

"You don't have to pick up that rubbish. that's not your job!"Mike said, panicked to see Liliana's smooth and soft hands; they had to lift the garbage consisting of food wrap, Snack scraps, mineral water, and others. Arsen is horrified by the consequences for Liliana, the girl whose beauty always makes him flutter.

"I'm not your baby, and you don't have to dictate what I do. Right now, I'm just helping my baby," Liliana said, looking at Arsen affectionately. Although Arsen has not revealed his heart to him, to reply to Mike's words and because he dislikes Mike, Liliana chooses to call Arsen her baby.

As soon as he heard Liliana's words, Mike immediately rose in anger, but he was not angry with Liliana; his anger was directed at Arsen.

"I HIT YOU CLEANING SERVICE!!! YOU MUST HAVE GIVEN A SPELL TO LILIANA. ISN'T THAT RIGHT? ADMIT IT!!!"Mike shouted to Arsen while advancing to attack Arsen. But fortunately, Alex and Mr. Bondan, Liliana's co-workers, have come forward to detain Mike. Meanwhile, Arsen and Liliana were already standing in their respective places.

"Cis....shameless. hit people by hiding behind the Department. your position is high, surely Arsen cannot fight you, " Liliana said with a sneer and stood protecting Arsen's body.

"In that case, we duel Arsen!!! Just you and me. I, too, will relinquish my office; we duel as men. no matter what happens, like I'm boned or bleeding, it won't affect your work. anyway, your job is safe. How's it going?" challenged Mike.

"One-on-one, right?" asked Liliana.

"Yes. one on one. "it's just him and me," Mike said.

Hearing Mike's answer, Liliana looked at Arsen's face; Liliana believed that if you didn't cheat, if you didn't gang up, Arsen would win the fight with Mike. Therefore, Liliana whispered to Arsen," you dare, right?"

"I don't like violence, Lili," Arsen said in a rather loud voice, but these words of Arsen made Mike, Alex, and Billy, immediately burst out laughing.

"Usually, the one who takes refuge behind such words, because he is indeed a coward, hua hahahaha.., "Alex said, laughing out loud and immediately followed by his friends.

"But, if you have to be like this, you must do it. I know you can," Liliana whispered to give Arsen a boost. And Liliana was happy because finally, Arsen nodded to agree to Mike's challenge.

"Okay. then, tomorrow afternoon in the back office, there will be a fight between me and Arsen. believe me, I resigned my position during the fight, so, my position as finance director with his job as a Cleaning Service, we will both resign during the fight tomorrow," Mike said, alluding to his position compared to Arsen's job, which is only a Cleaning Service.

"Okay. Arsen will definitely be present at your fight, " Liliana said firmly.

Hearing that, Mike immediately walked out of Liliana's room, followed by Alex and Billy.

After Mike left, Liliana asked Arsen, " I believe in you, Arsen. I'm sure, you will silence that big mouth of his, you...you've fought before, right?"

"Not yet. I've never fought with anyone before," Arsen said innocently, coinciding with the sound of a cold voice near the door.

"Hahaha...it'll be fun. People who have never fought before, face off against an inter-faculty boxing champion at Harvard for two years in a row, " Alex said as he looked from behind the door. Alex still needed to leave; he still had time to eavesdrop there.

"Champion? who is the champion?" asked Liliana.

"Mike Of course. who else, " Alex replied.
