The Castaway Billionaire Chapter 16
After dropping Elina off, Niko was left wondering where to go next. He didn't feel like going home, as it was filled with hypocritical people like Justin and his parents.As he pondered his options, Niko suddenly thought of his old apartment. He decided to drive there, hoping to find some peace compared to his current home.Arriving in front of a modest yet cozy-looking house, Niko got out of his car. The sound of the padlock on the gate didn't disturb the neighbors; this house had been empty for over a year. Niko wasn't worried about being kicked out since he had paid for five years in advance, even though he had left it empty for a year due to his imprisonment.An unpleasant smell greeted Niko as he entered the kitchen. He waved his hands to try and dispel the stench of expired food, though it was not very effective. The house looked like a wreck, covered in dust and dirt, but at least it didn't have a haunted feel despite a year of abandonment.Realizing that cleaning the house in

Niko left his office as soon as he found out that Daniel had prepared the necessary documents in the office. He was too lazy to stay in the room, enjoying the air conditioner and what he considered to be annoying days. Not only his room, but the entire office seemed so boring to him, and he preferred to get out to avoid everything that would happen today in his room. Downstairs, he walked briskly in search of Elina. His eyes were sharp, watching everyone who passed by."Oh my, didn't I have to pick up Elina? I forgot about that. Has she gone home already, or is she still waiting for me?" Niko muttered to himself and only then realized that he had forgotten his promise to pick up the woman. Niko had genuinely forgotten because all he could think about today was the french fries he wanted to have for dinner."Maybe I should just go and pick up Elina now, or she'll be mad at me for forgetting her promise. I was so excited when I made that promise to her, and now I look completely patheti

After circling the shopping center and trying out all the rides, Niko finally invited Elina to head home. The sky had turned orange as they stepped outside the building. Elina appeared pouty, still reminded that today was the first time she had skipped work, even if it was her boss's son who had invited her. There was no guarantee she would escape a reprimand."Let's grab a bite to eat, shall we?" Niko suggested before starting his car."I'm not hungry. Let's just go straight home, Young Master," Elina declined.Despite Elina's refusal, Niko couldn't bear to let her go hungry. In the end, he turned into a restaurant and went through the drive-thru. Niko purchased two meals for Elina, her brother whom they had met yesterday, and who had given him a warning.Upon arriving at Elina's house, it turned out that Okin was out. Niko quickly excused himself, not wanting to overstay his welcome while the other residents were absent.Niko drove at a moderate speed, a smile still lingering on his

The atmosphere in the family room, previously warm, came to an abrupt halt when they heard a loud crash, followed by the sound of water and a human body. It didn't take long for them to hear someone in panic, for reasons unknown."What was that?" Alma wondered, still not fully comprehending the situation.Reni's gaze swept across her family members as she remembered Resit's absence from the room. In addition to that, Niko's absence added to her concerns about the man."DIT ... WAKE UP, DIT!"Only then did they all rise from their seats, as Niko shouted Raditya's name. A heavy feeling weighed on Reni's chest as she had yet to see what had happened to her son."RADIT!" Reni screamed, feeling weak in her joints.It wasn't just Reni; the entire Nikholas extended family felt the same sensation. Raditya appeared unconscious and soaking wet. However, none of them had any intention of taking him inside the house."WHY ARE YOU ALL JUST STANDING THERE? CALL THE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY!" Niko yelled

Niko had donned a black tuxedo, complemented by a dark yellow tie with black stripes. He gazed at himself in front of the mirror, then promptly left his house once he was ready and well-groomed. He used his car as usual to head to the office. Today, there would be a significant meeting attended by top company executives, so he intentionally arrived early and on time, not wanting to miss this meeting. Besides, he felt a full responsibility for the success of the company and its long-term plans. There were so many things he had gone through with Elina yesterday, and now he had to get back to work as usual.Before walking into the meeting room, Niko walked into his office to drop off his bag and make some coffee before the meeting, scheduled for nine o'clock. After making it, he sat on the couch, gazing around the room, and began sipping his coffee slowly.There was a knock on the door from outside. Niko turned and said, "Come in," he said.The door opened, and a man in his mid-twenties

"So, here's the thing..."Niko passionately explained his desire to make Elina a model for the organic food products photo shoot produced by his company. Of course, there would be a substantial bonus if their products sold well in the market. Plus, Elina already worked in the marketing department at the office, so it could be a win-win situation.Niko spoke with fervor. He wanted to prove to everyone, especially Benny and Justin, that the company was in capable hands. One way to make a debut was by increasing sales to prevent the company from running at a loss.Unfortunately, Elina shook her head after Niko finished his speech. It was clear that she was rejecting the young master's request."I'm sorry, Young Master. It seems I can't do it. Even though I work in the marketing department, I prefer to work behind the scenes. Being a model for a photo shoot like that would mean my face would be everywhere in every promotion. Just thinking about it makes me embarrassed.""Oh, so you're ref

Today, Elina's new job is scheduled to begin. Niko and Daniel will be overseeing her as per the agreement. Regarding the supervision of Elina, they haven't yet reported to Arshad. Perhaps they will do so later, especially if Arshad begins to question their absence from the office."Today, are we going to Elina's photo location, sir?" Daniel asked as he was now in his boss's office.Niko was still busy typing some work before leaving for the field. He nodded slowly in response."What about Mr. Arshad?"Niko's movements suddenly stopped when he heard Daniel ask that question. It was only right for Niko to seek permission from Arshad to avoid being seen as negligent or intentionally leaving the office."We have to get permission, Daniel. Because if we don't, those troublemakers will surely take advantage of the situation," Niko said after giving it some thought.Daniel agreed with what his boss had to say. It was easy to predict that the troublemakers would try to tarnish Niko's reputati

Niko stepped out of the cafeteria, holding a steaming cup of espresso in his hand. He glanced at his watch, and it read exactly 9:30 PM. He should have left work thirty minutes ago, but he had postponed it due to the pile of tasks he had left behind a few days ago. He was determined to finish them now, as he didn't want his colleagues to think poorly of his performance. It seemed like the espresso was his second cup of the evening. Some of the office spaces had already gone dark as quitting time had long passed. Niko walked back to his office, sat down, and resumed working on his laptop, not caring what time it was because he had no intention of going home for now.From outside, he heard a knock on the door. Niko turned and said, "Come in," suspecting it was the office security guard. As expected, when the door opened, the security guard stood there."Sorry, sir, are you really planning to leave later?" he asked."Yes, what's the matter?" Niko inquired."No problem, I just want to mak

"Did Elina get hurt seeing me?" Niko's mind pondered, and blamed himself, even the man now looked frustrated. Even though he himself had done that, trying to make Elina jealous, but he himself also thought about Elina's feelings, and was afraid that Elina would be hurt by it.Niko let out a frustrated breath, he didn't know about his own feelings. On one hand, Niko was content to show his affection in front of Elina. But on the other, Niko was also thinking about her.Argh ....Niko grabbed his own hair, he really looked so frustrated thinking about Elina, even Niko threw away all the files on the table. Until Daniel, who was outside the door, heard the sound of something falling, and decided to see what had happened.Afraid that something had happened to Niko, Daniel quickly opened the door. He gaped when he saw the files scattered on the floor, until finally exhaling softly after knowing who the culprit was."What's wrong, young master?" asked Daniel. He continued to stare at Niko w

Inside a large room, Elina sighed. The woman's face was so puffy, and it looked like Elina had just cried. Her feelings were crushed when she saw the man she loved with another woman."What are you crying about, Elina? Didn't you know before?" Elina muttered to herself.Elina really didn't expect that she would cry for Niko. Even though Elina herself ended their relationship. But still Elina was so hurt when she saw Niko with another woman, especially when that woman was Sherly.Not wanting anyone to see her like this, Elina decided to go to the bathroom. She also tried to see the reflection of her face in the mirror in the bathroom. When compared to Sherly, Elina was nothing, and the woman looked pitiful."Niko deserves Sherly. Your decision to break off the relationship was the right one," Elina said as she continued to look at her reflection. Even though her mouth said so, her heart did not accept it. Her heart was so wounded, there were scratches that could not be expressed.Befor

"Sorry, Young Master. I-I want to drop off the files," Elina finally said. Her body trembled, her heart ached, but Elina had no right to, considering they had broken up a few days ago, and this was Elina's own will.The two people who were making out intimately with each other, did not care what Elina said, and Elina was so suffocated by the scene in front of her. She was not willing to have someone replace her, but Elina herself could not stop it."Young Master, I put this file on the table."After saying that, Elina decided to immediately put the file on the table, and walked away from Niko's room. Elina did not want to continue witnessing something that made her sick, because indeed Elina was so hurt when she saw the actions carried out by Niko and also Sherly.Elina's tears were about to fall. She hurried out of Niko's room, and wanted to get to her room as soon as possible. Elina didn't want anyone to see her like this, where Elina's eyes were almost teary.Daniel, who had just c

Elina looked at the young woman who was her superior. The woman checked Elina's work before Elina actually handed over the file to the CEO's office."Good! Keep up your performance. Don't let mistakes like yesterday happen again."The woman rudely threw the file at Elina, and Elina immediately caught the file, and did not expect the woman in front of her to behave like that. Although this was not the first time Elina had been treated like this."Okay, Ms. Rahma. I apologize for my negligence yesterday," Elina finally said. Even though Elina was so annoyed at the woman who stood proudly in front of her, Elina was still polite and friendly, but it was inversely proportional if Elina's position was above her, because of course Elina would reply to the treatment from Rahma who was arbitrary.Rahma smiled sarcastically at Elina. I don't know why Rahma didn't like Elina at all from the beginning, especially after seeing if Elina had been close to Niko, her hatred was even greater for that w

Arshad looked at his son. He really didn't think that his son could do something that he had never imagined at all. Even the hint of a cold face was now shown by the man still sitting in his oversized chair, and Arshad really didn't understand what had made him come to this."Did they do the same thing?" Arshad asked again.Niko sighed. Today the man was very tired, but being interrogated by Arshad made Niko even more tired, and the man really wished that the person who was his father, did not interrogate him like this, considering that Niko was really very tired, and did not even want to be disturbed by anyone including Arshad."Can you leave me alone today? Let's talk at home. Niko has a lot of work."Now it was Arshad's turn to sigh, he really didn't expect his son to kick him out blatantly like this, even in front of Daniel. But Arshad didn't insist either, given that the files on Niko's desk were piling up."Alright, Papa's waiting at home." After saying that, Arshad hurried out

It's been almost a week since Niko had any contact with Elina. It seems like their relationship really ran aground just like that, even now Niko is rumored to be close to a woman, and that woman is none other than Sherly. Moreover, the existence of Sherly, who often goes in and out of Niko's room, makes the rumors even more prevalent in Nicholas' company.The man who has always been a rumor, now punishes several employees who are often late coming to the office. Niko, the CEO, didn't usually intervene like this, but for some reason the man intervened like this. And of course it became the talk of all employees in the office, no doubt they all often said that Niko was a cold and cruel CEO.How can it not be called cold and cruel? If when the man is greeted, there is no nod or smile as usual, even a small mistake made by an employee in the office, can become big. Niko doesn't hesitate to punish, and worse, fire indiscriminately.Arshad, who had heard Niko's rumors, decided to go to the

It was a bright morning, but not for Niko, as he was too lazy to do anything this morning. But Niko couldn't lie on the bed comfortably either. He was sure that Arshad would be angry with him if he didn't go to the office again.Very lazily, Niko got out of bed and headed to the bathroom. Even though Niko was so lazy today, he would still go to the office and do his job well."Good morning, young master."Niko was startled to see Daniel standing in front of his bedroom door. He really didn't expect his assistant to be at his doorstep, but Niko, who was too lazy to do anything, chose to reprimand Daniel casually. "Hemm ...." Niko said coldly. The man simply left, and headed towards where the dining room was.Meanwhile, Daniel could only sigh after Niko's departure. He really felt sorry for the man, where Niko was currently heartbroken, but was forced to work as usual. Even in the company, the problem was still unfinished, and Niko should definitely solve that problem first."Good, Niko

After saying that, Niko decided to go inside her room, try to calm down, and try to make peace with her own heart. It hurt! It really hurt right now, and Niko knew why his heart hurt so much, none other than because he couldn't accept Elina's decision.Again Niko could only stay in the room, there was nothing he could do for now, it was just that his mind drifted thinking of Elina, and who knows how long the shadow of Elina would fade, what was certain was that the shadow was swirling in his memory."Go away, Elina! Don't ever bother me," Niko growled. Niko looked so upset. He really didn't expect his relationship with Elina to end, something he never expected at all.*****Elina looked at the clock on her wrist, it was already 5:00pm, and she was still in her room. Elina sighed many times, really she regretted ending her relationship with Niko, but Elina also couldn't ask for a return, considering Elina herself broke up this relationship."Why so soon?" Elina muttered. She decided to

It was a quiet afternoon, but not as quiet as the person who had just rushed into Niko's room, and that person was none other than Daniel.Without knocking, Daniel walked straight into Niko's room, while the owner frowned at the sight of his frantic assistant."What's going on, Daniel?"Daniel looked at the man who was still wearing a towel, it looked like Niko had just finished showering, the water was still dripping from the body. "Sorry, Young Master. The Great Master called," Daniel reported while trying to eliminate the heartbeat that came from panic.Niko could only sigh, he had expected this, considering he did not go to the office and did not inform Arshad first, so Arshad must be angry with him."Tell Papa. I'll be down in a minute."After saying that, Niko rushed straight to his wardrobe. She couldn't possibly go and see Arshad with a towel like this.While Daniel immediately nodded, he went out of Niko's room as ordered, and met Arshad who was now in the living room. The ma
