Early in the morning, precisely at 7:00, the doctor checked Elina's condition again. Two nurses accompanied him. "Her condition has improved significantly. She's recovering faster. She can go home today," said the doctor."Thank you," Niko replied. After the doctor left, Niko went to see Elina immediately. "You stay here for a moment; I'll take care of the administrative matters first. After that, I'll escort you home. Don't go anywhere, and I'll help you pack everything you need to take with you." Niko reminded her before going to the administrative desk to settle the bills for Elina's hospital stay.Once he was done, he returned to Elina's room and helped her pack her belongings. "Is this all you're taking?" Niko asked, pointing to the small boxy bag she had."Yes, that's all. I didn't bring many things. It's easier to carry, right? Better than carrying more," Elina smiled.Niko nodded and began to take Elina outside. They left the room and headed towards Niko's car. They both got i
Arshad was truly puzzled searching for Raditya's whereabouts, who seemed to have disappeared without a trace. The young boy appeared to have vanished into thin air, leaving Arshad with no leads.Confused about where to go next, Arshad eventually asked his driver to take him to the office. Perhaps with Niko's help, they could find Raditya. Arshad hoped Raditya was safe wherever he was.Arshad's arrival at the office was greeted warmly by the employees passing by. They even offered to escort him to Niko's office, but Arshad declined their offer."No need, I'll go to Niko's office myself," Arshad told one of the male employees.Afterward, Arshad continued his steps towards the elevator that would take him to Niko's location. He couldn't wait to share everything with Niko about Raditya, even though they hadn't found the child yet.Upon reaching Niko's office door, Arshad knocked several times. He heard Niko's voice responding, prompting Arshad to open the door. Fortunately, Niko was in th
After remaining silent for a moment, Raditya finally accepted Niko's invitation. Knowing that Raditya had agreed, Niko couldn't hide his happiness. Niko immediately hugged his younger brother and invited him into the apartment.Niko's gaze scanned the entire apartment with pity. The atmosphere inside was no better than a chicken coop. Back when Niko lived in a small rental, it was much more comfortable than Raditya's current place. That was because Niko didn't like anything dirty."But... will they accept Radit?"After remaining silent for a while, Raditya finally began to speak. Raditya hadn't been silent without reason. Raditya was thinking of a question that could be asked without offending his brother or Daniel."Radit, listen," Niko firmly held Raditya's shoulders, as if giving his younger brother reassurance. "Actually, it was Dad who reported directly to Kakak that you weren't with your Mom. That means Dad wants you to come back to us." He said it to make Raditya confident in h
In front of the wardrobe, Niko appeared bewildered as he gazed at the row of expensive suits given by his family. Niko was puzzled about which suit to wear to make sure he looked great in front of Elina. After settling on a gray suit, Niko quickly grabbed it. He swiftly put on the outfit and felt like the most handsome man on Earth.Niko moved to stand in front of the mirror to ensure everything was perfect. The shirt, the suit, the pants - everything blended into a seamless ensemble. Niko didn't forget to spray the expensive perfume gifted by Arshad."Everything looks good; I'll leave now."With one hand carrying his work bag, Niko stepped out of the room. Despite the quiet atmosphere in the house, it didn't deter Niko's enthusiasm because the time still showed five in the morning."Kak Niko? Are you leaving now?" Raditya asked from behind, realizing that Niko was lost in thought.Niko turned around and smiled awkwardly at Raditya. "You're up, Radit?"Instead of answering Raditya's q
Kamu, kerjakan semua ini. Aku beri batas sampai pukul 12 ketika jam makan siang," Elina was shocked to find a pile of marketing division files placed on her desk. She blinked her eyes to make sure what she was seeing was not a mistake."Wha—Do you mean I have to do all of this?" Elina asked nervously, instantly feeling flustered.Her question only fueled Rahma's anger. Without hesitation, Rahma roughly opened all the work files she had brought so that Elina could see them."If it's not done, how will it get finished? The office pays you a salary to work. If you don't work, how will you get paid?" Rahma scoffed.Elina could only bow her head. Confronted with Rahma like this, as a subordinate, Elina couldn't resist, even though she wanted to rebel in her heart. Elina remembered Niko's advice not to appear too weak when dealing with superiors. Because the weaker we appear, the more our superiors will take advantage."Alright, if that's what you want. I'll get it done quickly!" Elina repl
"Elina... have you woken up?" In her sweet dream, Elina heard her mother's voice faintly calling. With a bit of effort, Elina roused herself. Elina was in a half-dazed state, glancing here and there because her senses hadn't fully gathered yet."Mom?" Elina mumbled softly."ELINA?"Once again, Maya's rather loud voice managed to startle Elina. As a result, Elina immediately jolted up, and her eyes widened. This time, it was not the expression of sleepiness or laziness that came first, but fear."YES, MOM!" Elina replied firmly before getting out of bed.Elina walked slowly and stepped towards the bedroom door so that Maya would believe that she was indeed awake. When she opened the door, Maya welcomed her with a stern expression."Aren't you working? It's already past six, Elina!" Maya scolded, fearing that her daughter would face consequences from her boss.When her eyes glanced at the clock on the wall, Elina quickly slipped away from Maya with all her nagging. However, for now, Eli
After a heated debate due to Daniel's insistence on keeping Niko's whereabouts a secret, Elina now knows everything. With a fear of facing Niko's wrath, Daniel takes Elina to the hospital."Mr. Daniel... How is Niko doing?" Elina asks anxiously.Daniel, who is driving the car, briefly glances at her before returning his focus to the road ahead. "You'll see for yourself later," he replies flatly. He isn't angry with Elina; he's just afraid of Niko, his boss.Sensing Daniel's less-than-friendly demeanor, Elina chooses to remain silent. All the curiosity that had been building up inside her since earlier can only be kept in her heart.The car continues to drive until it finally stops in front of a luxurious hospital. Elina's gaze wanders around the hospital, which isn't far from the office. Has Niko been brought back to Surabaya?"Has Niko been brought back to Surabaya?" Elina asks again."Yes. Young master was brought here after last night's incident," Daniel replies. "Come on, I'm sure
"Niko, are you sure?" Ever since Niko had said something Elina found unwise, she hadn't stopped asking. Elina hesitated to wear Niko's clothes, knowing they would be too big for her."Do you want to catch a cold?" Niko replied with a question, frustrating Elina even more. She had hoped for a wise answer from him, not more questions.“Why are you answering with a question? I need your help to choose the right outfit, not more questions,” Elina retorted with a pout.Niko scratched his head in realization of his mistake but had no other choice as the only available clothing in the hotel was his oversized shirt. "Fine, I'll change now," Elina declared, taking the shirt Niko offered.During her time in the changing room, Elina couldn't stop complaining. She wanted to be grateful, but the clothing was truly uncomfortable, and even as she slowly wrapped it around her body, it didn't feel right."Do I really have to wear this?" Elina questioned.Once she finished, she stepped out, holding the
