The Village Girl is not Cinderella
53. Sense of Heart #2

Melvin didn't deliver his wife. As usual he went with the kaka to the office.

Along the way, we only talk about business. "What about the proposal you're talking about?" ask Melvin.

"It's still being taken care of by Armand" Alfan replied while driving. "Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow you will go abroad" he continued.

"What if I'll just go there?" melvin asked him to turn the document back. Alfan glanced next to. "This is your job as vice chairman I'm just your assistant how can I take care of that important project" Alfan complained while driving.

Melvin sighs. "Alright I'll go there with my secretary, for a while kaka who handles the business here" said Melvin.

"All right I don't matter" Alfan replied smiling.

Upon arrival at the door guard's office opened their car's door. Melvin walked ahead followed by other executives. A little talk about work. Lately Melvin has been very busy with his work. Because the project that has been awaited has finally been signed by foreign investors.

A feat for Melvin on its own as his company won over the project tender. The father who was in Singapore also often contacted him because he was so proud.

But the news of the pregnancy of the wife has not been told to the father and mother. That news is always expected.

Silma walked into her boss' office while carrying the schedule today. "Good morning sir" said Silma with her best smile. Seeing Melvin's focused face, he didn't stop staring.

"Don't just smile quickly read the schedule today" Melvin said in a calm but piercing tone.

Silma cleared her throat so that her voice would become loud. "Your activities will be preoccupied with meeting sir. And in the afternoon you will be invited by the directors to play golf" explained the secretary.

Melvin nodded in understanding. "Then I say retreat sir good morning" said Silma.

"You and your co-worker are getting ready for a business trip abroad with me, because my assistant didn't come this time" Melvin said, but his eyes were on the documents.

"Well ready sir" said Silma enthusiastically. Silma walked out of the room Melvin gracefully. But his heart was very excited because he would be invited to go abroad. Even though it is for business travel, it still makes fun. Rarely would a Melvin take a secretary out of the country.

The one he often and always carries is his assistant. It's like upin and ipin in a cartoon. Where are the two. Free holidays for sure.

During the day Serin came to the office to invite Melvin lunch. The one in the office is Alfan. The two of them accidentally met at the elevator door. "Serin" call Alfan.

Serin smiled to hide his shocked face. "Sister Alfan" said Serin. "Why did you come to the office do you need anything?" ask Alfan. Serin confusedly replied. Because he really intends to meet Melvin is not his fiancee.

"Because Melvin doesn't have anything if we're both the ones who lunch" Alfan asked her hand to pull Serin's hand. Serin's eyeballs were staring up. Forced to have lunch with Alfan when he wanted to take Melvin.

They arrived at a fancy restaurant in an ordinary place. There's Bobby and the others. Bobby's eyes are observant to see his prey. He pretended to be walking leisurely from the opposite direction to Serin.

Bobby accidentally hit Alfan. Serin looked at Bobby. "Ups sorry" Bobby said as he blinked one eye at Serin. Intending to tease Serin even Alfan was angry.

For the time being Bobby closes about their betrothed relationship. Serin is a hobby here and there especially in a handsome man and an heir. Though he is said to be from a rich family but his status is only as an adopted child just like Alfan.

"What do you see" said Alfan slightly raising his voice. Alfan recognized Bobby's face. "You're Reta's boyfriend, right?" ask Alfan to make sure. Bobby just smiled not answering. "It just so happened to meet again" Alfan added.

Serin's hand immediately grasped Alfan's arm tightly. "The woman that this brother brought is really pretty" Bobby teased.

"Who are you coming with?" ask Alfan. Bobby pointed towards the corner of the table. "That's them there" Bobby replied. Alfan and Serin's eyes refer to the direction Bobby points.

Serin's heart was no longer. Not because he's in love, but because he's scared that Bobby told Alfan about his relationship. If only he had gone with Melvin it would have been more of an emergency. Because of Melvin's feelings that Serin is really guarding.

Bobby seems to be good at acting in front of other people. "Well, how about we join them" asked Alfan, asking Serin for approval. Serin just smiled while nodding.

They walked ahead of Bobby. Bobby was satisfied with the situation. Seeing how nervous and fearful Serin's face was made him gleeful.

Dinka turned the menu book upside down. He was confused as to what food to choose. Because his appetite is reduced. "Tuh the book do not be flipped back and forth dong, cepet want pesen what" muttered Reta.

"Fruit salad" replied Dinka. "Hi my sister and my beautiful sister-in-law" said Alfan. Reta and Dinka looked at each other.

"Sister Alfan why are you here?" ask Reta. "You eat the time you want to be begging" led by Alfan as an answer. "Please deh kak" Reta said in an unhappy tone. Because seeing Serin coming too.

The ordered food. Serin could only shut up without saying a word. "Sister-in-law ate you a little bit, isn't it appetizing yet?" ask Alfan.

"Where will taste buds again food will also come out again" complained Dinka. Reta laughed out loud. "First trimester pregnancy is like that" explains Reta.

Serin is stunned to hear of Melvin's wife's pregnancy. That would make it harder to get Melvin. But Serin is not the name if it does not get a way.
