"I apologize once again Clara, I have so many responsibilities right now," he whispered softly, Clara seemed to melt as she slowly smiled and nodded in understanding of Andie's situation.
"Are you going straight to the office after this?" Clara asked, not wanting the two of them to separate again.
"Yes, I will have to take Aunt Camila's belongings to the apartment first before returning to the office, so I'm sorry I can't accompany you, Clara," said Andie, showing the dirty object in her hand.
"It's okay Andie, after all, I was taken by the driver," said Clara.
"Okay, I have to go now." Andie hugged him briefly before they separated.
Andie and Clara were too deep into the story even though Ferdinand had already done it
After mopping the floor from a few meters away, they both heard clearly that their cousin was going to their mother's apartment.
"This is a golden opportunity to find out about my mother's apartment," he said, excited to know the exact location of the unit where Camilla lived.
Ferdinand's hasty steps tried to catch up with Andie without paying attention to his footsteps so he accidentally bumped into Clara who was visiting. A bucket of dirty water from mopping the floor spilled onto Clara's body, which had fallen to the floor.
“Oh My God?!” Clara screamed with emotion while holding back her disgust with the water that soaked her clothes and body.
"Oh my God, what have I done? I'm sorry I didn't intentionally hurt you, Miss," said Ferdinand in fear, especially as his intention to follow Andie failed miserably.
"Is it outrageous that you lowly men haven't been taught how to work, so it makes my body stink?! Where's your boss? I'll ask him to throw away a careless employee like you?" Clara snapped strongly then her right hand flew to Ferdinand's right cheek.
Ferdinand spontaneously immediately looked at Clara while touching the marks on the woman's palm, which still felt so raw and painful.
"Please forgive me, I didn't do it on purpose because something was urgent, so my steps didn't intentionally harm you," said Ferdinand pleadingly.
"Shut up?! I've never met stupid and careless employees like you, they say this is a hospital with the best service, how could there be employees like this who don't have any attitude?" Clara's voice was getting higher and higher, attracting the attention of the visitors and the security officers rushed over to them.
"What is this?" asked the security guard hurriedly while looking in surprise at Clara who was soaking wet.
"Call the head of this hospital! He must know that his stupid and uneducated employees are acting so carelessly?!" Clara shouted like she was crazy.
"Miss, can you explain to us what happened?" The security guard said with a little fear. Seeing Clara's appearance, they already knew that this girl was not from just anyone.
"Don't you have eyes? You should have known straight away what was happening because my clothes were wet because this despicable man had spilled dirty water on me?!" Clara snapped.
Everyone was silent and didn't dare to say anything else because the strength to argue with Clara was not comparable to any of them. Until the noise that had been earlier attracted Camilla's attention, she was resting on the sofa and immediately massaged her dizzy head.
"What's all the fuss out there that's so annoying?" complained Camilla.
"Now show me where the head of this hospital's room is!" Clara ordered so arrogantly.
The security guard nodded obediently and immediately invited Clara to meet her superiors but their steps stopped.
"Wait, aren't you Andie's close friend? What has happened here?" Camila asked, suddenly appearing with a face that didn't look rested enough so that the wrinkles on her face could already be seen appearing.
"Aunt Camilla, I'm sorry I made a fuss in front of the wardroom, a stupid janitor who caused me harm like this," said Clara, showing her clothes which were wet with dirty water.
"Oh my, how did that happen?" Camilla asked in surprise and pity.
"Sorry Auntie, this time we can talk longer, next time I have to meet the head of this hospital to hold that despicable man accountable," said Clara.
Camilla didn't really care and immediately went back into the room after Clara left.
They all finally arrived in front of a luxurious-looking door, after which the security guard pushed Ferdinand roughly, just like treating a thief who was caught red-handed.
Clara also came in without permission, walking quickly even though her legs still hurt from falling when she was hit by Ferdinand earlier.
"What is this?" Ferdinand was silent when he saw the fierce face of the adult man in front of him staring at him coldly.
Everyone seemed to be swallowing him because he had caused such a big problem that the word tolerance would not apply to him.
"You also can't see my clothes are so disgustingly wet like this, all this happened because of that guy you recruited?!" Clara looked so emotional that she had been provoked to repeat the question.
"How could something like this happen at such an inopportune time? Andie must have arrived at mother's apartment while I was trapped among arrogant and arrogant people," Ferdinand thought to himself and remained silent while lowering his head.
"Just get ready, tomorrow the news about the dilapidated service at this hospital will be published in all the media if that idiot is not punished!" threatened Clara while pointing at Ferdinand.
"I will do anything to reduce your annoyance, as long as Miss is willing to forgive our negligence and not take this problem to outside parties," asked the hospital manager with a pitiful face.
Clara's threat just now really had an extraordinary effect because if it happened it wouldn't just be the hospital's reputation that would be damaged but everything.
"I want this careless man to work without pay in my residence for a year!" Clara exclaimed suddenly.
"What?!" Everyone was shocked because there had never been a long-term problem like this before.
"Do I need to repeat what I just said?" Clara's voice rose.
"No Miss, sorry but he is our employee. Is your request not excessive?" he said nervously.
"What kind of offer is that? Do you think my family doesn't have enough money to afford the best facilities in this hospital to dare say that? It turns out that not only is the leading janitor here so careless that he can just talk about anything?" Clara's voice sounded increasingly pressing.
Ferdinand, who had been looking down, thought deeply, not knowing what this arrogant woman would do to him if he became a servant without pay.
"Okay, I'm willing to be a servant at your residence, Miss, for this year. Just think of it as atonement for my mistake just now and please don't blame the hospital, they are not at fault," said Ferdinand very firmly.
Everyone was stunned to hear Ferdinand's words so loud without any tremor of fear for himself.
"Why do I have to deal with a woman like her?!" Ferdinand threw the hat he was wearing onto the bed. His hands were clenched into fists, signalling annoyance. It was only a matter of time before he caught up with Andie. "No wonder that woman became Andie's lover. They're both bad-tempered!" Ferdinand muttered. Tonight is the last night Ferdinand occupies an employee room at this hospital. Tomorrow morning, he had to start his new duties. Ferdinand laid his body on the bed, imagining his duties at Clara's house as a servant. Working in this hospital alone, he was pretty exhausted, let alone having to be a servant in the house of that cruel-tempered woman. "You bastard! I'm experiencing all this because of Andie! I'll repay him mercilessly when I get the chance!" said Ferdinand. The face of his cousin, whom he used to love so much, was now the person he hated the most. Meanwhile, Anna, who had just finished her duties as head nurse, met with the hospital manager in the hospital
Clara was busy applying her beautiful makeup in front of the mirror. She felt a little tired because of her busy work schedule as a professional model. From advertising projects and fashion shows to photo shoots for famous magazines. "Today's schedule is even busier than yesterday," she said softly, sighing. She looked at her face for a moment. Then, put some makeup on her eyes. Covering the eye bags that began to appear clearly due to lack of rest. It was not only her busy schedule as a professional model that made her tired. Her younger brother Jason made her very tired in this house."Miss, may I come in?" a servant asked from behind the door.Clara put down the perfume bottle she had just sprayed."Yes, just come in," she replied.A young woman who had been working as a servant in Clara's family for several years entered her room with cautious steps."Excuse me, Miss, I apologize if I disturbed you." said the maid."What's wrong?" asked Clara without turning to the maid. Her ga
Clara sat in a chair in the lobby, fiddling with her cell phone. She was sick from meeting and dealing with the young man who had spilled dirty water on her clothes the previous day."Excuse me, Miss," greeted the security guard who escorted Ferdinand.The beautiful woman put her cell phone in her bag. She stood up reluctantly and returned the security guard's greeting."Yes," she said curtly."This is Ferdinand. All his work at this hospital has been completed. He is allowed to leave with you. His work contract at this hospital has not been renewed anymore." explained the security guard.Clara was too lazy to talk to the security guard. She just turned her head slightly to give a code to her driver. The driver immediately understood."Thank you, sir. Now Ferdinand will come with us." The driver said on behalf of Clara.They then walked outside the hospital building. Clara stood in front of the lobby door, waiting for the driver to take the car to the parking lot. Ferdinand waited obe
Andie was still in her luxurious home. His cell phone had been ringing for a few minutes. He deliberately ignored the call. His head was spinning from a report from his assistant that one of their most significant business clients had suddenly canceled a joint project."Didn't you hear Doni wrong?" Andie asked."Yes, sir, yesterday, while you were meeting with the company's top brass, who will be our potential investor, Mr. Jose came to see me and told me about the cancellation. I explained that he should talk to you directly, but Mr. Jose refused because there was no time for a meeting and because he was about to fly straight to America," explained Doni carefully."Damn it! It's a big project that I've been looking forward to!" Andi said irritably.Doni just stood there with his head bowed. He didn't dare to say much, fearing that Andie would get even angrier. Meanwhile, Andie paced back and forth in front of his desk, looking upset at the thought of billions of dollars failing to en
"This woman's house holds many secrets; I thought this place was just a warehouse for used goods," said Ferdinand, who began to open several old books stored there.The main door was still tightly closed. There was no sound of people approaching. Ferdinand believed the situation was still safe. He wanted to check more documents in this warehouse.Clara wasn't a stranger, as Andie had been dating the girl for over two years. Ferdinand often heard Clara's name, but they had never interacted directly. Andie and Clara usually spent their time vacationing abroad. Clara was well known to Ferdinand's parents as Andie had introduced her to Camilla and Levin."Oh, so that annoying naggy woman handles some of her father's businesses and modeling," Ferdinand said softly as he read an old document containing Clara's data.Ferdinand stepped over to examine the rest of the room. He still couldn't guess what Clara wanted to order him to do later."You damn girl! Just because I accidentally spilled w
Margareta was wearing a thick blanket. The sun was already shining brightly, and the weather was quite warm, but her unhealthy body made her shiver from the cold."What about my animals? I have to feed them. But my body doesn't feel strong," she said, lying in bed.Margareta has been sick for almost a week. Yesterday, she was still doing her usual activities, going to the garden and caring for the cattle. But eventually, her body couldn't take it. Today, she has been lying down since morning, unable to cook food for herself.There was a knock on the door. Margareta wanted to get up and open the door to see who was coming. But her body felt so weak."Who's there? Just come in, the door is unlocked," she said in a rather loud voice. After that, she went back to warming herself under the thick blanket."It's me, Leticia," said a voice outside.Leticia, who heard Margareta's answer, opened the door slowly and entered Margareta's house."Leticia, what's wrong this early in the morning?" as
"Thank you. You can leave directly with my driver. No need to take me upstairs." Camilla said as the car stopped in front of the apartment lobby."No, Aunt Camilla, you're not feeling well; let me take you to the door," said Clara."You'll be late." Camilla tried to convince Clara that she could still walk to her apartment unit alone."No problem; if I'm just a little late, they can still wait for me," Clara replied with a smile.They both got out of the car after the driver opened the door. The driver carried Mrs Camilla's bag while Clara helped Camilla walk by holding her hand.They walked into the elevator and then to the fifteenth floor. Clara held Camilla's hand until they passed through the apartment hallway and stopped before the door. Camilla was again seen holding her head. The look on her face was one of pain."Auntie, should we call a doctor to check on you?" asked Clara with concern."No need, I just need to rest." Camilla refused gently."But, are you sure you can be alon
Ferdinand Johansson was holding the steering wheel restlessly with his two sharp eyeballs staring straight ahead that were barely visible due to the stormy night that suddenly poured down along the way to the Johansson family residence."Shit! I'll be late," he grumbled as he continued to drive the luxury sedan at high speed. The man did not know that another vehicle had been following him while playing with its headlights until its reflection on the rearview mirror disturbed Ferdinand's vision, but he did not care, choosing to drive faster so as not to be late returning home."What's going on?" Ferdinand panicked because suddenly the brakes suddenly lost function even though there was a steep winding road ahead so that the car's speed was uncontrollable, within seconds there was a loud bang followed by an explosion.At Ferdinand's house, a festive party was being held and the sound of music could be heard throughout the entire area of the Johansson family's luxurious residence, abou
