"Erica," Victoria called.

Erica looked at Victoria with tears on her face. She sobbed when her grandmother came to see her after what she did at the party. She was devastated that Victoria had trusted Nancy and given her the title of CEO.

Nate stood next to Erica. They both looked at Nancy and Victoria in turn. Erica frowned as her grandmother approached her, clasping her hands with a face full of panic.

"Erica, are you okay?" asked Victoria. She regretted choosing Nancy as CEO instead of Erica. She should have kept her word, but regrets always came too late.

"Of course, she's not okay. You broke your promise and chose Nancy as CEO. You said you would choose Erica. She even got the deal, to the extent of inviting Bluebell's president to a party she'd never met. Isn't Erica dedication greater than hers?" Nate glanced sharply at Nancy who stood beside Victoria.

"It's all Nancy's fault! It's her greed. She kept saying that you were lying. That you did the wrong thing to get the deal. Tha

    After Erica came out of the restroom, Victoria immediately asked her to contact Morgan and ask Morgan to change her decision. If the Bluebell company canceled their deal, the company would go bankrupt. The debts they had were piling up and she would not be able to pay them off. Everything would be destroyed in the blink of an eye. And this partnership was vital to their survival.And Victoria had opened her eyes wide and realized that Erica was the key to the company's success. Making her CEO was the right decision. That's why she wouldn't make the wrong decision again.Erica walked out of the party area into the courtyard. She planned to catch up with Morgan and see if she was still there. But Morgan had already left. She worriedly dialed Morgan's cell phone. It took a while for her to receive the call."Hello, Morgan," Erica greeted as soon as her call was connected."Miss Erica," Morgan greeted back from the other end."Morgan, is what I'm hearing right now true? That you canceled

    Erica hugged Victoria with a big smile. She felt very happy and grateful. She could not hide her happiness as she had been appointed CEO of the Starry White company. After all the things that happened, her previous struggles were not appreciated. Everything had changed. She got what was rightfully hers, which was to become the new head of her family's company.And she was able to prove to everyone that it's not just men who can be CEO, but women too. It also proved to her family and cousins who often mocked and belittled her. That she is talented and she is not someone who can be put down at any time. She was able to become a CEO with all the hard work she put in. She had even gotten a deal with the Bluebell Company again when they had previously canceled it unilaterally."Grandma, thank you for keeping your promise," Erica said with a smile. She hugged Victoria tightly before letting go again."I made the wrong decision because I listened to Nancy. Now you're the CEO and the company

    The next morning was Erica's first day as a CEO. She was excited, nervous, and happy. Early in the morning, she was ready to go. And she has checked everything about the company. Since it was her first time holding a company as CEO, Erica had to check its income for the past few years, documents related to cooperation, and so on. She also had to take care of how much the company had lost so that she could think of ways to solve the workers' salary problems so as not to make the company even more in the woods.Although the Bluebell company had given her a lot of money, it only helped to keep the company from going bankrupt, but for everything else, there was still no solution. And as CEO, Erica would try her hardest to bring the Starry White company through all of its current crises.As she was getting ready in front of the mirror, Nate came out of the bathroom. He had just showered in the full clothes he had put on, but his hair was a little wet. He looked at Erica with his appearance

    Nate's eyes sharpened when he saw Robert coming. He walked towards him with a swaggering demeanor, so relaxed, as if he enjoyed the way he was overwhelmed by the protesters who had lost control of themselves.Nate clenched his hands into fists as Robert stood directly in front of him, staring at him with a mocking gaze. He smiled broadly at Nate's disheveled appearance due to the attack from the protesters."You really are a beggar now," he said, "but you usually are."Nate rolled his eyes in reply. He had to hold his temper. There was no point in fighting with an old man who had no attitude. It was a waste of time."You'd better leave before you get hit by a rock and your head bleeds. Of course, you won't be able to use it to think anymore. Or you've been acting without thinking," Nate said, trying to irritate Robert, but he laughed instead. Nate frowned with a puzzled expression.Why is he so calm and confident? Nate thought."Don't be a smart ass. What are you going to do to the pr

    As he watched Robert leave with a triumphant smile, Nate began to understand that this was all his game. He had deliberately done this to destabilize Erica. To make her mentally unstable so that Erica would get scared and resign from her position as CEO. But he would never let that happen. As long as he was in this world, no one would be able to hurt Erica, not even by the tip of her hair.Nate stared at Robert's back who was no longer visible, entering the building. He then looked at the protesters who were still shouting for their salaries to be given immediately or for Erica should step down as CEO. They wanted wages, not a new CEO.This made Erica feel uneasy. How could she get so much money to pay all the workers' wages, while the company itself was also in crisis and almost bankrupt? So, what should she do to solve this problem?"Don't worry, everything will be fine," Nate reassured Erica, but he knew she was feeling uneasy. Judging by the look on her face, Erica was afraid that

    "Okay, I'll take care of the wage payments for all the workers right away," the Manager replied to Erica."Please take good care of it and don't miss anything. I don't want to see them protesting in front of the building again and not getting their due. They also need money to live their lives," Erica reminded.The manager nodded his head. "Yes, I understand. I will do as you say. You don't have to worry.""Um, is the money given by Bluebell's president enough to pay all the workers' wages?" asked Erica curiously."Yes, I think it's more than enough. Even more than what we need," replied the Manager."Thank goodness. I'm very grateful that they're willing to send us cooperation money and help with the workers' current wage problem," said Erica. She let out a long breath. She was no longer as worried and nervous as she had been a few minutes ago. She was so afraid that if she couldn't take care of the wage issue, she would blame herself for not being a good CEO."In that case, I will t

    "Erica," Theo greeted Erica. He shook Erica's hand with a big smile and Erica returned his handshake. She smiled politely and immediately removed her hand from Theo."Hello, Theo," said Erica."Yesterday, I didn't get a chance to congratulate you on becoming CEO. Congratulations to you," Theo said."Thank you, Theo.""Oh, I heard from your mother, that you're in big trouble. She called me and told me that there were some workers protesting in front of the building. But I didn't see it," Theo explained, "By the way, I came here to help you.""Before I left, they were still there," Maria said."All the problems have been clear," Nate replied.Maria and Theo frowned. They stared in disbelief at Nate."You? How is that possible?" asked Theo in a mocking tone. "How can a loser take care of such a big problem?""That's right, Erica, tell us. Is the problem clear? We should ask Theo for help. He's already here, so let him take care of all the problems," Maria said, then tugged on Theo’s arm

    "Oh, shit! Have you lost your mind?" Theo shouted as Nate pushed Theo's body so roughly that he staggered forward.Nate stared at Theo who whimpered in pain while holding his shoulder and arm that he had twisted. He deliberately did it to teach Theo a lesson so that he wouldn't dare approach Erica again, let alone say bad things about Erica. Because he will never forgive anyone who tries to disturb or hurt his wife."That's the first warning for you. Leave Erica alone, don't say anything bad about her, and stay away from her," Nate threatened.Theo swore loudly, cursing Nate with the harshest words he knew."Damn, bastard! You're just a useless servant and a poor man. Wake up to your position!""You're the one who should realize your position. Erica is married and has a husband, you shouldn't be flirting with her. Especially, in front of me," Nate insisted."I don't care because you don't deserve to be Freya's husband at all." Theo laughed mockingly. "You're supposed to be her servant

    Elsewhere, Nate was still at Flo's house. They had just had breakfast together and Nate also told Flo all his complaints. He felt relieved because he had told all his problems so that now Nate felt a little lighter. Before Nate felt so sad and didn't know who to tell."Flo, I am very grateful that you have been a good listener for me. I haven't known who to tell my problems to, and I've always kept everything to myself without telling anyone. Because I didn't have any friends who could listen to my problems," Nate said."You're welcome, Nate. You can make me your confidant. You can come to me whenever you have a problem and you can tell me everything until you feel relieved. That way, your burden is a little lighter," Flo said as she patted Nate's arm a few times with a smile.Nate smiled too. He hugged Flo as a thank you. "And thank you for breakfast. Everything was delicious and you're a very good cook despite the injury to one hand. Your future husband will be very lucky to have a

    That morning, Erica went to the office with Nick. They chatted all the way about work or something they would do again later, and about Nick taking Erica to lunch at the restaurant he had looked up earlier."I heard that restaurant is very famous for its delicious cuisine and good service," Nick told her, "but if you don't like it, we can find another restaurant for lunch later."Erica turned her head sideways to look at Nick. "That's okay. I have no problem with the restaurant you chose," she replied with a faint smile."Perfect!" Nick exclaimed in a very good mood that day.Erica and Nick Lawson finally arrived at the company. As they got out of the car and entered the lobby, everyone who saw them walking together felt that they looked very compatible. But they couldn't say that for fear that they would be fired.But the staff preferred Erica to be with Nick Lawson who was of the same level as Nate who had no job at all and was just a poor man. Compared to Nate, Nick Lawson was more

    That morning, Erica woke up early because, at 5.30a AM, Nick Lawson would pick her up in front of the house to go to the office together. She got ready while Nate was still fast asleep in bed. Erica didn't intend to wake him up because he looked exhausted.She didn't want to disturb Nate's deep sleep and she intended to leave once she was ready. Erica sighed repeatedly because she felt that her day had been very boring lately. Coming home at night and leaving early in the morning just to work until she felt like her body was about to collapse from exhaustion.What's more, her relationship with Nate was on the rocks so she felt like half her enthusiasm had disappeared. If only their relationship wasn't deteriorating, Erica would have confided in Nate and at least it would have made her feel relieved to have told Nate all her problems.Because that's what Erica always did before their relationship fell apart. And Nate will provide support, encouragement and say everything will be fine w

    Nate and Flo have dinner together. They looked so happy as they ate and talked about many things. Nate doesn't even feel embarrassed anymore when he talks about his relationship with his wife. And Nate felt that Flo was a good listener."I'm glad you're willing to be a good listener for me, Flo. Thank you," Nate said sincerely."It's okay, Nate. I'm glad you're willing to share your problems with me. At least it can ease your sadness. If you have any problems you're having or anything you're thinking about, you can tell me. I will listen to your every problem, Nate," Flo said with a smile. She wiped her lips because she felt some food residue sticking to them, but Nate quickly grabbed a tissue and gave it to Flo. It made Flo's heart flutter to be treated so sweetly by Nate."You too, Flo. If you have a problem you're dealing with or something that's bothering you. You can tell me right away. I'll be ready to help you," Nate said. smiling as Flo smiled at him and thanked him for bringi

    Nate was really upset that day. He didn't even focus on work anymore after learning that Nick Lawson was the man who was with Erica in the photo. Nate didn't know how far their relationship had gone, but Nate had no idea that Erica was so close to this man named Nick that they could go out together until Nick Lawson opened the car door for her.A man would do something like that if he had a special relationship with a woman. Because it indicates that the man cares and cares about his woman.And every time Nate remembers the scene in the photo, he always feels upset and angry. Nate had to find out what their relationship was like and why Erica didn't tell him and lied to him about his work. While in reality, she was having fun spending time with Nick Lawson."Damn, this problem makes me dizzy so I'm not in the mood to do all my work today," Nate said to himself while slamming the document he had been checking before he signed it.He then looked at the time on the top right screen of hi

    "Do you need me to find out more about these businessmen, Mr. Nate? So you can decide which companies are free from corruption. Because right now, it's hard to find a company that doesn't do anything dirty," Morgan suggested."Instead of doing that, I want to ask you something," Nate said. He looked at Morgan for a long time. He was confused about whether he should ask and tell Morgan about his relationship with Erica, which was currently on the rocks. It's been a few days, even more than a week they fought and Nate doesn't know what he should do to make their relationship better again.Morgan frowned in confusion because Nate was suddenly silent and did not continue his words and instead daydreamed. Lately, she felt that Nate looked very sad."Sir, what did you want to ask? Why are you suddenly silent?" Morgan asked."Oh! Yeah, I... I wanted to ask you something about....""About Miss Erica?" asked Morgan, who quickly interrupted Nate's speech. She smiled when she saw the surprise on

    After coming to Flo's house, Nate went straight back to his company. His mood improved because he got good treatment from Flo. So attentive to her even though Flo is also sick, but Flo is still thinking about her who hasn't had breakfast.Meanwhile, his relationship with Erica is now increasingly tenuous. Nate didn't know what he should do to make their relationship better again. But he felt that for the past few days, Erica had been avoiding him.He knew that Erica had a lot of work and had to work late and come home at night, but Nate felt that Erica's attitude was getting strange.Usually, no matter if they were angry or not, they still went to the office together. But Erica just left. Nate didn't even know when Erica left and what she left with.It was the same when she came home. Erica didn't call him at all to ask him to pick her up. Either because some time ago Nate forgot to pick up Erica to make her wait very long, that's why Erica no longer expects to be picked up by him.In

    That day, Erica had a lot of work to do. After being dropped off by Nate, she went straight to her office, preparing some documents before she attended a meeting at nine in the morning with the staff. They were also discussing the ongoing evaluation.Erica organized everything as best she could so that no mistakes would be made and everyone would get a good score on their evaluations. Because Erica didn't want any bad comments about her staff where her grandmother was. Because that would show what kind of leader Erica was in the company and how she managed her office staff.Because if the office staff had bad evaluations, of course, it was the leader who had the problem. And if that happens, it is not impossible for her grandmother to revoke Erica's position as CEO of the Starry White company.Erica had earned the position of CEO at the Starry White company with the persistence and hard work that she had done desperately. Of course, she would not let her hard work go to waste. That's
