Chapter 105 - Their First Trial (2/2)
”How long will you be there?”
”Until Dino recovers.”
”What about the kids?”
”Your boss and his wife can take care of our children.”
”Our children? Did you mean Hanin?”
”Did I say something wrong?”
”No, but don't you say that you can't accept Hanin? Now you've called her our children. That was sweet….”
”Sweet my foot! Relax, sometimes you are overreacting.”
”Am I?”
”Where did you sleep last night?” Tia is getting curious about Dino and Rere's relationship.
”Did you really want to know? Are you curious?” Rere stuck out her tongue in front of the camera. She scooped the rice into the plate and put it on the dining table. Tia could clearly see what Rere was doing.
”She has changed.” Tia mumbles. ”I've never seen Rere this happy. There must be something that makes her mood better.”
”Aren't you going to work?” Rere looked back at the camera.
”In a minute. I'm waiting for Daniel to pick me up.”
”It's good to be in the same office as your future husband.” Rere sneered.
”Of course. That's why you should have worked with Mr. Dino.”
”No, thanks.”
”Manage your own company. Mr. Bara has been taking care of it and that makes his job busier. He has other companies to manage.”
”Shut up. Bara was okay with that.”
”What do you mean by okay? Stop talking nonsense. You better hurry and take care of your own company.” Tia is serious.
”Why? Is there something you haven't told me yet?”
”Your uncle, your father's brother, asks for his rights in the company. He was furious because it was Mr.Bara who took over all the companies. He said that Mr. Bara is unsuitable because he is only an outsider.”
”Did Uncle Lutfi really say that? Why have I never heard about it?”
”How dare he speak about that with you. He was afraid that he would be kicked out of the company. Mr. Bara's presence in your company creates a bad atmosphere. Some are jealous of your stepbrother. Mr. Lutfi feels more entitled to lead the company than Mr. Bara. Mr. Bara is busier taking care of your company than his own company. Miss. Dian took over Mr. Bara's company. You need to go back to work and learn to lead the company from Mr. Bara. If you're good at it, the boss will let you lead your own company.”
”I'll think about it later, Tia. I honestly don't want to work in the company yet.”
”You need to make the decision sooner, Re. Before the conflict between Mr. Bara and Mr. Lutfi broke out. Do you know what Mr. Bara does when he is angry, right?”
”Yeah, I know,” Rere said quickly.
”Hi, dear.” Dino with his short pants greeted, hugging Rere from behind. He hugged her waist tightly then kissed Rere's cheek.
Tia gawked as she couldn't believe what she saw. It feels like a dream that Rere is not angry when Dino hugs and even kisses her.
”Dino,” Rere whispered in surprise as she immediately turned off the camera.
”Damn, she turned it off.” Tia pouted her lips.
”Why are you surprised?” Dino held both of Rere's hands.
”I'm on a video call with Tia. She will know if we….”
”What's wrong if she knows that we have made up. You have accepted our marriage. What's the problem?”
”I'm embarrassed. Surely, she will tease me and this will reach Bara's ears.”
Dino burst out laughing as he caressed and pinched Rere's cheek excitedly.
”What are you cooking, dear?”
”I make spicy fried rice.” Rere proudly shows off her dishes.
Dino smelled the fried rice that made him hungry. It must be delicious.
”Let's eat.” Dino invited Rere to sit next to him. The man scooped the rice and put it in his mouth. ”Wow, that's delicious.”
”Is it good?” Rere was relieved that Dino liked her cooking.
Dino ate the spicy fried rice deliciously. He finished the food and drank the hot tea.
”Why is it bland, Re?”
”Really?”
”Just try it.” Dino gave his glass to Rere.
Rere drank Dino's tea. It is not bland, sweet, but not too sweet.
”It is not. It is sweet.”
”Let me try,” Dino took the glass from Rere's hand and drank his tea again.
”After being touched by your lips, the taste of this tea becomes sweet.”
”You are getting smarter at seducing now.” Ree couldn't help but laugh.
”I am serious, dear, but it's true. The bitter food will taste sweet just by looking at you.”
Rere shook her head at Dino's statement.
