Kate looked lethargic looking at the various types of breakfast on the dining table. She kept thinking about Wyne. There was regret for forcing her granddaughter to be matched with Ricardo. She forgot that her granddaughter's heart was still hurt, not using Ricardo to avenge her hurt feelings to Arifin. For Wyne, marriage is sacred, not a means of taking revenge on an ex-lover.
Meanwhile, at Gordon's house, the man was also not enthusiastic, just staring at the various breakfasts on the dining table in front of him. He also regretted forcing Ricardo to marry Wyne who was said to have had a partner. The grandson did not want to be a spare tire. Even though Wina David was a woman who was dumped by her husband, his grandson was touched and loved her. Maybe in the CEO's mind, Wyne broke up with his boyfriend, afraid that Wyne would just use him as an outlet.
Then Martin and Matt came. The two men were wearing white shirts and black trousers, the uniform of assistants and chief aides.
They sighed seeing Gordon unenthusiastic, just playing with his fork on the surface of his plate. Understandably, the king wanted Ricardo, the crown prince of the Elmer family to marry Wyne, the crown princess of the Wilson family, not just to fulfill the agreement with the late Carter Wilson, but so that the two families would be more closely tied.
It was not necessary because Louisa Elmer and Henri Wilson had been married. From that marriage, Carter Wilson was born. But the Wilson generation was born, not the Elmer generation. Then Gordon only had one biological child, Aldiano, then his son only got Ricardo. While in the Wilson family, there was only Wyne.
Gordon did not want Ricardo to give the next generation from a woman's womb like Isala Smith. Although his grandson's ex-wife was also from a billionaire family, she had a bad track record. Isala was born from Edelaine, a night butterfly who was never officially married to Viktor Smith. Then Viktor was not only famous for having many concubines but also for running a business in a dirty and cruel way.
Then in the man's household, there was a fight over property between legal wives, concubines, and concubines. If Isala gave birth to Ricardo's child, the Elmer Group could be destroyed by the Smith family. Luckily Isala cheated and was divorced by Ricardo.
Gordon's concern about being caught by the late Carter, then suggested that Wyne be matched with Ricardo. Carter educated Wyne's morals very well, and in the future, she would be able to educate all generations of Elmer well. Then consider another thing, Carter hopes Gordon protects Wyne, the sole heir to Wilson's throne, and also Kate, because Jeff and Salimar are still alive, eyeing the throne.
Gordon agreed, because he knew very clearly that the Wilson family's morals were 80% good, the 20% flawed because of Jeff and Salimar's actions. Unfortunately, because of Ricardo's extreme ignorance towards Wyne, Carter's granddaughter feels disgusted with Gordon's grandson. Likewise, the CEO was annoyed with Kate's granddaughter because she didn't put his heart into dashing him.
"Sir." Martin reprimanded Gordon who was still playing with his fork, but now in a glass of water.
"Just talk, Martin," Gordon replied without looking at his assistant. "What report did you bring? Have you contacted the BPN to change the name on the cluster house certificate to Wyne's name, no longer Arifin, Wyne's ex?"
Yesterday when Kate was at Gordon's house, the Mrs. told Ricardo why he met her at Wilson Group. Ricardo asked her to contact the BPN to change the name of the ownership on the certificate of ownership of the cluster house to Wyne Wilson, not Arifin. Kate asked why and for what. Ricardo only answered to help a woman who was thrown out by Arifin like a sick dog on the street.
Kate immediately knew that Ricardo was the one who helped Wyne and Bella after Arifin dumped them. From Kate's story, Gordon immediately took control of the situation. Let him punish Arifin. For this reason, the king told Martin to contact BPN.
"Sir," Martin said, "I have done what you asked for. Mr. Dasri immediately made a new certificate of ownership in the name of Miss Wyne Wilson, no longer in the name of Mr. Arifin."
"Don't call that jerk Mr. Arifin!" Gordon scolded Martin for calling Arifin Mr. Arifin, "He's a commoner who doesn't know his place, taking advantage of my granddaughter's love to rise to the billionaire level!"
Martin and Matt were silent, their hearts ached. As real men, they were angry with Arifin's behavior. Then they found out that Wyne, a woman with good morals, really didn't deserve to be treated so rudely by Bella's father.
"Enough!" Gordon sighed, it was no use scolding Martin, "You-" Martin looked at him, "Have you contacted Damas, the HRD director of Elmer Group Central?" The conversation was diverted to a new topic.
"Yes, sir." Martin nodded his head, "Today he met you at this house. He left for Jakarta at dawn."
"Good!" Gordon was relieved, "Arifin Cahyadi-" Arifin's name was called, "You will return to being a commoner for daring to hurt my granddaughter and my great-granddaughter!" he slammed the table with one fist, "That's the price you have to pay."
Martin and Matt sighed together, if the king was angry, Arifin would be in trouble in the hands of this king. That was still good, if Ricardo the crown prince joined the king's action, Bella's father would be finished. Gordon and Ricardo were the protectors of the Wilson family after Carter Wilson passed away.
Gordon turned his gaze to Matt.
"Matt!" Ricardo's assistant reprimanded.
"I am, sir," Matt replied.
"Have you found any trace of Rick?"
Being asked this question made Matt gasp. Last night Sahid called him, informing him that he had met Ricardo disguised as a Duda selling chicken sempol on the road leading to Kate's house. He had also said that Wina David had gone somewhere with the prince.
Matt also got a call from Aston, the deputy CEO, informing him that Ricardo asked to be his assistant at Elmer Group because the prince had a very important task. Aston coordinated with Matt because he would send the notes that Aston had to work on to the assistant.
Getting all the news, Matt was relieved, his job now was to talk to Gordon about Ricardo's heart in love. Matt knew Ricardo liked Wyne from the prince and the little princess, that feeling drove the young master to help the princess and Bella when Arifin dumped them.
Matt knelt to look at the king.
"Matt?!" Gordon wondered why Matt was kneeling, "Why are you kneeling in front of me?"
"Sir-" Matt spoke, "I beg you and Mrs. Kate not to look for Mr. Ricardo and Miss Wyne."
"Why?"
"Mr. Ricardo is currently looking for Miss."
"He was looking for Wina David."
Matt then told two good news from Sahid and Aston about Ricardo in sequence until the end. After that...
"Matt please sir-" Matt looked at Gordon with a hopeful gesture, "Let Mr. Ricardo find Miss, and they become friends in their current life as ordinary people until one day they know each other's true identities. That way, without coercion, they will marry as you and Mrs. Kate hope, and they will definitely return to you and Mrs. Kate." he said sincerely understanding Ricardo and Wyne's feelings.
Gordon listened carefully with his sanity.
Martin knelt, "Sir." He reprimanded the Kings, "I agree with Matt." He agreed with all of Matt's statements, "Moreover, Sahid must have sent someone to follow the Young Master. I am also sure that the people sent are tough aides, capable of guarding the Young Master."
Martin's analysis is correct. Sahid sent several aides to follow Ricardo after the prince left Kate's house.
"Then-" Martin continued, "It won't be long before the Young Master asks Matt to come to him. He depends on Matt."
Gordon listened to all the input from these two assistants. Slowly took a deep breath.
"You guys stand up," the two men asked, "I agree with your opinion."

In a simple office, Wyne sits facing Sulistyo, the owner of the Mikumi mini market. She has undergone a series of tests, including operating a cash register, and is now awaiting a decision.
"Okay-" Sulistyo said while looking at Wyne, "You are accepted to work as a cashier at the Mikumi mini-market with a salary of 3 million Rupiah for a 3-month trial period, and later you will receive a salary of 5 million Rupiah according to the minimum wage."
"Thank you, God," Wyne looked relieved to have gotten the job. "Thank you, Mr. Sulistyo," she thanked Sulityo.
"You're welcome-" Sulistyo smiled, "Are you willing to work today?"
"Of course, sir."
