Chapter 36 - Defense and Temptation

I feel free. I hope Pak Ridwan doesn't come until work time is over.'_ Joya

' But Gio gave you a lot of work.'_Irwan

' It's fine, better get lots of work. My stomach is hungry.'_ Joya

' I ordered food.'_ Irwan

' No need. Let me ask OB to buy a snack. Have you had lunch?'_ Joya

' I've ordered food and snacks for you. Have OB pick it up at reception. I'll eat soon.'_ Irwan

' Have you seriously ordered?'_ Joya

' 20 more minutes to come. I'm a little busy. See you tonight.'_ Irwan

Irwan stared at the pile of black folders in front of him. There are many documents to review. But, Irwan can't do it in the office. He didn't want to spoil Joya's happiness, who was happy because of his absence.

Thirty minutes ago, Irwan arrived in front of his office building. However, Joya texted and said that she was happy that her boss was absent. Finally, Irwan changed his goal. He went to a restaurant next to his office building and asked Nurman to take all his work there.

One by one, Irwan paid off his work. Occasionally, he would call the men to give orders or ask them directly about the documents they had provided. Sometimes, Irwan also calls his business partners to discuss their business.

In the midst of his busy life, Irwan was sneaking glances at his laptop screen which was showing the CCTV footage in front of his office. He watched Joya who was working while eating the snacks she bought.

Seeing the smile on Joya's face, Irwan felt like he wanted to go back to the office. He wanted to see his wife's smile in person. However, he was afraid that Joya's smile would disappear if he came. Finally, Irwan was busy again and hoped that night would quickly come.

"What a surprise! You really bring all your work here," said Gio as he sat down in front of Irwan. Tsk!ck!ck! You even keep an eye on your wife. Why don't you just meet him?"

Gio is surprised by the attitude of Irwan and Joya. Irwan seemed to be avoiding Joya and Joya didn't even want to meet Irwan. Gio still remembers Joya's cheers when he found out that Irwan had not come to work this morning.

"Actually, what happened to you guys? Why are you guys avoiding each other like this?"

Irwan put down the folder in his hand, then looked at his cousin. "I'm not avoiding him. I just want to maintain his happiness."

Gio snorted and smiled. Then he glanced around at the nearby tables. He frowned at the quiet state of the restaurant. Even the 'Close' sign had been put up, even though it was lunch time.

It's crazy how his cousin maintains his wife's happiness. He kicked out everyone in the restaurant and forced the owner to close.

"You are indeed extraordinary, playing the role of the rich and the poor at the same time," Gio sneered.

"I'm just using the opportunity. Besides, Grandma didn't forbid me from using my money during working hours," said Irwan as he opened the black folder again in front of him.

"That's what I'm surprised about grandma's attitude. She tortures you, but she also pampers you. I think grandma doesn't really want to see you miserable. She's just bluffing," said Gio while scratching his head that doesn't itch.

Irwan was stunned to hear Gio's words. There were a few wrinkles on his forehead. Is it true what his cousin said. Then, why did his grandmother do that. Various questions arose in Irwan's mind.

But, remembering his grandmother who really made him poor after work. Irwan immediately denied Gio's statement. In the past, when Erlina first confiscated her belongings, she asked Nurman to search his shirt pocket. Just in case, Irwan tucked the money in his pocket.

Irwan sighed. Her grandmother's attitude always confused her. From childhood until now, Irwan never really knew how his grandmother felt. Does her grandmother love her or does she hate her? The answer to that question is still a mystery to Irwan.

Joya glanced at the clock which showed 16.00. Soon work hours will be over. And today, Joya was happy because Ridwan didn't come.

"Tell Pak Ridwan I want to see him."

Joya jumped, Windy's sharp voice startled her. "Mr. Ridwan is not in the room. He didn't come to work today," said Joya no less curtly.

Windy frowned. "Didn't come to work? Don't lie to you. Mr. Ridwan earlier called Leo and asked for this document to be finished this afternoon."

"Really? But Mr. Ridwan really doesn't want-"

"Come into my room!"

Joya's words were cut off by Ridwan's sudden arrival. He was astonished, Ridwan and Gio came exactly one hour before working time ended.

' Really! Mr. Ridwan is a boss who doesn't know the rules. How arbitrary she is,' snorted Joya to herself. His eyes stared at Ridwan's back with distaste. Windy glanced at Joya. Joya's gaze towards Ridwan was misinterpreted by him. " Disgusting!" Windy cursed.

Suddenly, Joya directed her gaze to Windy. He saw his older brother looking at him with a sneer. " What do you mean?"

"It turns out that besides being a liar, you are also an adulteress. Your eyes show that you admire Mr. Ridwan. Remember, Joya, you are already married. And again, aren't you here to work? Why do you flirt with so many men? Is it because Irwan can't satisfy you? " sneered Windy.

" Watch your mouth!" Joya stood up and pointed at her brother's face. "I'm not teasing anyone," said Joya defensively.

" Is it true?" Windy smiled slyly. "Then what is this?" Windy showed a photo of Pram holding Joya's hand. This morning, Windy deliberately captured the moment, she wanted to send it to Irwan.

" That..."

Joya was surprised to see Windy taking a picture of herself in a position that people would misunderstand. In fact, at that time Pram grabbed his hand and Joya immediately let go.

"You were holding hands in front of the elevator. Pram was even waiting for you to arrive in the lobby. It's really embarrassing! I'll make sure Irwan sees this," said Windy, smiling crookedly. Then go to the CEO's room.

Joya was slumped in a chair. His eyes shook. He was afraid that Irwan would misunderstand if he saw the photo. " What do I have to do?" muttered Joya with a trembling voice.

Windy walked with a smile. He was satisfied that he managed to disturb his sister. Windy will indeed send the photo to Irwan. It's just that he was looking for the right time.

Windy hopes that Joya and Irwan's relationship will stretch after Irwan sees an intimate photo of his wife with another man.

When will open the CEO room. Windy's hand stopped, she remembered Leo's words about Joya surrendering to Ridwan and Gio.

Windy smiled crookedly. ' If Joya can charm Mr. Ridwan, why can't I? My body is more beautiful than Joya. My face is also prettier. I'm sure he will be captivated,' thought Windy.

Windy's hand opened the second row of buttons on his shirt. Showing the skin of the top of her chest and revealing her tantalizing cleavage. Windy entered with her best smile.
