Chapter 3

This morning I was in a rush to go to work. I also took Luna to the office. However, she would catch up with me after her work at the house and shop was finished.

I would love to introduce her to the job and duties of a secretary. So that, she can help me monitor stocks and market developments. Maybe she'll be interested someday. However, not for now. Luna was not ready to introduce herself to her family that she is the wife of a CEO.

"Eh, Bro. You work here too?" I suddenly turn around. The tone of voice seemed familiar. I had heard it before.

"Yes, you also work here?" I asked him even though I already knew he worked in a branch of this company.

"You remember me right?"

"Yeah, still. You're Fisal right?"

"Wow, you have a pretty good memory! Actually, I worked as a manager in a branch, but Big Boss called me to the office so early. Hopefully a new job title for me."

That saying was repeated over and over again. What do you mean, Dude? Or should I tell you the truth, who I am?

"I wish you the best," I said simply.

"What do you think. Have I matched the promotion to a new position?"

I was surprised to hear his question. New title? Who will promote him?

"Pretty good!"

"It fits pretty well. It should be worth it. Isn't it?"

"Yeah," I said, starting to get lazy to serve his word.

"By the way, you are so neat! An employee shouldn't be dressed better than the boss." He approached me and touched my shirt.

"Don't touch my collar or ...."

"Or what?" He began to dare to ruffle my shirt collar and tie.

"I said, stop it!"

"Ouch, sorry!" In a mocking tone. "You are an ordinary employee, but arrogant too," he continued mockingly. "Listen and look. Don't scream in front of me!"

I was getting hungry seeing this young man's treatment. My hands clenched into fists. My eyes reddened. I immediately restrain myself.

If not, I'd have battered him. However, I realized that it was impossible to beat this person in front of the office and be seen by the employees. Saved where is my pride as a leader.

Are all employees under him treated like before?

"Sorry, I have to go."

"Hey, loser. We're not done yet," he shouted. "Damn it!"

"We will continue in a moment!" I answered.

I immediately left him. Today I had a meeting. I might be late if I linger here. Serving him will take up my time.

Regarding him, after the meeting, I will teach someone like him a lesson.

"Mr. Arga, you have been awaited by the guests from the board of directors."

"Okay. Please put my notebook on the table. I'll follow!"

I calmed myself down on the chair while exhaling. At a glance, I saw that my face had stiffened from meeting the creature earlier. It really, spoiled my mood this morning!

I walked to the meeting room. The directors of the partner companies were already in the room. The meeting started and went well according to plan until it was finished.

"Iwan!"

"Yes, Boss."

"Please find out Fisal's performance and accommodate all the complaints of his subordinates. I wonder how his performance was."

"Okay, sir."

"Wait! One more thing. Who exactly recruited him without my permission?"

"Okay, sir, I'm ready to do it! How is the meeting with Fisal, the new manager?"

"I almost forget! Please cancel my meeting with him. Let me check it out personally at the branch. And you're still doing your job of figuring out his performance."

"Okay, sir."

"I'm going out for a bit. Don't forget to call me if you have any information."

I promised Luna, would pick her up. Immediately, I drove the car to the house to pick up my Cinderella.

My eyes widen, when I see this car again. It was working hours. Just casually hanging out outside office hours!

"Good morning!"

"Eh, Bro. How come you're home early? An employee should still be working in the office," he greeted, who else if not Fisal.

"I missed a file. Well, why are you here? Isn't it still working hours?" I asked.

"I have employees working. You forgot who I am?" he replied casually while smoking the cigarette between his two fingers.

People like this will be detrimental to the company if they are nurtured too much. I muttered while shaking my head.

"How was the meeting with the Boss?" I deliberately asked just wanting to hear the answer and see his reaction.

"I almost got a new promotion, but the meeting was canceled. Hopefully, there will be another call tomorrow."

"Hope you get a new job," I said and headed to my room.

"Auntie, why are you still keeping her in this house. They can live in other places."

"Auntie still needs them. It's pretty good to get paid every month," he whispered, but I can still hear it from above.

"Ah, if that's all, Fisal can also do it. I'm the manager. I know how much my salary is a month. Instead of being a bum employee, he acts like a boss."

"Yes, Auntie knows. But Auntie also needs Luna's power to take care of Auntie's house and shop. There's no one to take care of. After all, hiring workers cost more money."

I immediately slowed my steps. I can still hear his voice up here. I could not understand what Mrs. Mega said.

I was shocked to hear those words. So my guess was correct all along. They only used Luna's power. Pity my wife. Be patient, you will see what our attitude will be.

He had no intention of caring for Luna sincerely until he grew up. I could feel Luna's very rough palm. Maybe because of the work he did since childhood. I don't know, I don't know what his life was like.

"Ready? Let's go."

"Yes, but I haven't told mom yet," said Luna.

"It's okay, you're only with me for one day. After that, I'll take you home."

"All right. It won't take long, will it?"

"Not for long."

We set off.

"Hey ... We meet again here."

"How come you're still in this office. Don't you have to go back to your office where you work?"

"Who are you to dare manage me. Did you forget I'm the manager," he snapped.

"I know, but you don't work here at the branch."

"I just wanted to go for a walk. Oh, you brought this woman. Beautiful and tidy too! Doesn't she work in a shop?" I saw his eyes looking up and down, making Luna uncomfortable to look at like that.

"Wait a minute, you want to get a job for her as an office girl? Her clothes can't be this neat."

"Don't you dare touch or I'll break your hand!" My reflex warded off his hand that was about to touch Luna. My eyes were bloodshot and my molars were grinding against each other.

"Haha... Turns out, you can get angry too." He clapped his hands.

Unknowingly my hand flew to his face.

Bruk!

"Get out of here before I make you regret it! Security guard, please get this man out of the office. He does not need to be here anymore."

"Enough, Arga. It's no good fighting here." Luna interrupted me.

I started to lose control of myself because my wife was being abused. Especially with young people who can't be polite to other people.

"Eh, what is this. Who are you, dare to order me? Watch out, we're not done yet."

"You said it wasn't done yet? Here's yours." I said and threw my fist next.

He fell and got up too.
