The Castaway Billionaire Chapter 9
Five minutes before the office hours, Daniel smoothly parked the Alphard car in front of the lobby. Recognizing the arrival, a security guard in uniform hurriedly approached and opened the car door.Niko was taken aback, his mouth slightly agape, as he gazed at the impressive company building where he would be working. It was huge and magnificent, a far cry from the restaurant where he used to work. Not a fair comparison, really.The commanding presence of Daniel made Niko close his mouth and pretend to adjust his perfectly tied tie. He was overwhelmed with nervousness."Please, Young Master," Daniel slightly bowed, gesturing for Niko to walk ahead.Taking a deep breath several times, Niko confidently stepped into the building. The air conditioning immediately hit him, making him shiver slightly. It was an unfamiliar place, but soon it might be under his leadership.Niko could feel curious glances from passing employees. As a gesture of friendliness, Niko offered a thin smile and occa

Every sentence spoken by Niko seemed to silence Elina. The marketing employee appeared helpless as Niko always hit the mark."You—" Niko didn't continue his words because Daniel suddenly arrived."Apologies, Young Master. You must return to the room immediately as Mr. Arshad is waiting."Niko was annoyed by Daniel's intrusion, but he couldn't do much because staying here longer would affect Daniel."Now?"Without hesitation, Daniel nodded. Without time to spare, Daniel would likely be less composed. No need to search for his young master."This time, you're safe. Just pray you won't cross paths with me again," Niko warned menacingly.Elina dared not respond to Niko's words. It turned out the man was quite intimidating when he was serious. Elina's significant mistake on the road had provoked Niko's anger.The two of them walked together towards the exclusive elevator used by the company's top executives. There was no conversation between the two men because they were unsure what to tal

This is much scarier than Niko expected. He did trust his job under Daniel's guidance, but now Niko's mind feels like it's on fire.Maybe being a company leader isn't his calling. It's too much for him."Daniel, can I get some coffee?" Niko asks with a forced smile.Daniel, who was about to read the next file, suddenly falls silent. He gazes at his boss with an unreadable expression. "Are you getting tired of my explanations?"Niko quickly shakes his head. "N-no, it's not that," he defends himself. "I think you also need a short break." His smile seems a bit strained.Daniel sighs deeply, then nods. "All right, then." He places the folder on the table. "I'll be right back."After Daniel's departure, Niko quickly rises from his seat. Asking Daniel to make coffee was just an excuse. Niko wants to escape from the burdensome work he can't comprehend at all. Leaving the office, he walks away.The company is vast, and Niko's footsteps wander aimlessly because he currently has no definite de

Niko gazed at Elina's receding figure until she turned and left the cafeteria. The young man then flashed a crooked smile, taking a drag from his half-finished cigarette.Having enjoyed the unexpected encounter with Elina, Niko decided to return to the room before Daniel followed him, just as he had earlier when he excused himself to the restroom. He strolled casually, one hand tucked into his pants pocket, unable to shake the habit despite knowing it could slightly rumple his attire.As Niko reached the lobby, he scanned the area, ensuring that Daniel hadn't caught up with him, like he did before. Niko then headed towards the elevator to go upstairs."What's your deal, huh? You're supposed to be part of the cleaning service, but you're not doing your job properly. Should I report you to your superiors?" Niko was startled by the scolding from a female employee standing near the elevator. A cleaning service staff member was hunched in front of her, muttering repeated apologies.Curious

After seeing Alexa being dragged away by security, Niko could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Initially, he had feared that the arrival of the woman from his past would continue to haunt him. However, Niko was grateful that security had arrived just in time.As he turned around, Niko was startled by the sudden arrival of Daniel. His assistant stood tall behind him, wearing a puzzled expression."You really startled me!" exclaimed Niko.Daniel apologized multiple times, explaining that he hadn't meant to startle him. Niko replied with a brief acknowledgment and invited Daniel back into his office. Intent on clearing his mind from the work-related stress, Niko was now faced with Alexa's unexpected presence at the company."Have you finished your break, young sir?" Daniel asked in the silence of the elevator."Somewhat," Niko replied tersely, as he couldn't possibly share all his frustrations about his encounter with Alexa earlier.The two men continued in silence until they reached th

A man walked with wide strides along the office corridor. His face appeared somewhat weary. The incident in his office had left Niko infuriated, especially with Justin suddenly barging in and hitting him."Damn, that scoundrel!" Niko muttered as he rubbed his sore cheek.Today, Niko had to go home alone as Daniel had other commitments. He didn't mind, really, but in his current mood, he needed Daniel to talk to.Niko's footsteps led him to the basement. Upon arriving there, he headed straight for his city car. Before he could grab the car door handle, his hand was grabbed by someone.Niko turned, and the man before him rolled his eyes in annoyance. Right in front of him stood a woman he didn't want to see, none other than Alexa."Let go!" Niko commanded sharply."No. I won't let go until you come with me," Alexa replied.Niko yanked his hand away from Alexa's grasp roughly. Being treated this way by his ex only made Alexa flinch. Earlier, she wasn't even allowed into the office, havin

"Where are we actually going, Young Master?" Elina asked, for who knows how many times. Her butt started to feel numb from sitting too long without doing anything meaningful, just staring ahead while nodding off.It had been more than an hour, and they had been circling around, even passing by the office building twice. Yet, there was no sign that Niko was going to stop. The only company during this journey was Niko's troubled expression.Niko's Alphard came to a halt in front of a well-lit park. He was searching for a suitable parking spot for his four-wheeled vehicle."Oh my goodness! We're just going here? In case Young Master forgot, we've passed this park twice already. Why didn't you stop earlier?" Elina complained as she stepped out of the car, slamming the door shut.Niko remained silent, not responding to Elina's scolding. He unfastened his seatbelt and got out of the car as well.Niko took broad strides, leading the way into the crowded park. Many young couples occupied ever

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

"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
