"WAIT!!!"
Not far from the door of the room, a woman can be seen standing with her right hand extended forward, she is trying to stop the actions of the men in the room.
Liora's two feet stepped closer to Jeff's desk for a second. The woman nodded her head and then said, "Okay."
Hearing this, Jeff smiled with satisfaction. The man put the document that looked crumpled and shabby on the work table, this time gently without throwing it.
"Hurry up and sign before I change my mind like you," said Jeff, then his smile returned.
Those eyes stared intently at the man who seemed to be casually sucking on the man who had returned to his left hand. Meanwhile, Liora first decided to re-read the agreement.

Huft!
Liora exhaled roughly. The woman took the pen that was already on the table and opened it.
Signature begin to be affixed in the available column. With a heavy heart, Liora was forced to sign an agreement that was completely unfair to her.
The sound of a ballpoint pen being closed could be heard clearly in the quiet room. Liora closed the document and pushed it a little towards Jeff.
"I've signed it," said Liora, said in a cold tone of voice.
Jeff nodding his head. The man smiled and looked satisfied with the look in his eyes.
"Why didn't you immediately sign this agreement, huh?" He asked.
The man's body came back closer to his desk, he used his left hand to put out the cigarette in an available ashtray.
Meanwhile the man's right hand moved over an office telephone, dialed some of the numbers available on it and picked up the receiver.
Tuuttt ....
Voice calls trying to connect to other phones are heard clearly. Not only that, Liora could also faintly hear the sound of the office phone ringing in another room.
"Come into my room immediately." Jeff said without allowing the person on the phone to say a word.
Jeff's office was silent again, the man sat down by shaking his chair a little. Meanwhile in front of him, Liora still seemed to be sitting and silent.
There was a double knock on the door. Shortly after hearing the knock, Jan then said with a little shout, "Come in!"
The sound the opening door sounded quite clear in a room that was in a state of silence. Instantly the two people who were already in the room both turned towards the open door.
In the doorway of the room, you can see a big and tall man wearing a red apron with the restaurant's logo on it. He smiled stiffly when he saw Jeff and Liora.
The man was none other than Sean, he walked a little fast closer to Liora's seat. There weren't enough seats for him, Sean chose to stand not far from where Liora sat.
"Sorry, Jeff. Why did you invite me here?" asked Sean gently, even he also bowed his body a little.
Jeff didn't immediately answer Sean's question, the man stood up from his seat with the marriage contract documents in his hands.
Now Jeff moved on to the sofa, followed by Sean and Liora who stood up from their seats.
The man's body is now sitting on the sofa in his office, his right hand takes an expensive ballpoint pen from the pocket that is under the suit he is wearing.
"I will sign this document, you are the witness," said Jeff with stinging ease.
Jeff then immediately put his signature on the name listed. After that, he placed the pen on top of the document that was still open.
"Your turn." Jeff said then.
"M--me?" Sean asked, pointing at himself.
Jeff nodded his head casually, the man then said, "Yes, weren't you the one I just called to come into my room?"
Of course Sean immediately nodded his head because what Jeff said was true.
"B--but ... may I know what the document contains and why I must be a witness?" asked Sean, with great trepidation.
His courage had been trying to muster for the past few seconds. When asked that, Sean's heart was beating fast, he was afraid if he would disturb the privacy of his boss. But if he had to sign, Sean was also afraid that if something went wrong and he would be held responsible.
"Contract marriage agreement." Jeff answered casually.
