Alex Alberto, that name had become the primary topic swirling in Lisa's mind. Ever since he became the CEO at the company where she worked, it was highly likely that Lisa had fallen in love with Alex.She felt her heart race every time she thought of him. This was when she began to realize that she truly had feelings for Alex.But admitting it and telling Alex directly might make him think that Lisa liked him only because he was now the CEO. Lisa didn't want to be perceived that way, even though there was a certain allure in knowing that Alex was now a CEO.Alex was a handsome man with a somewhat aloof demeanor. He didn't even have friends and used to be the target of office bullying. However, everything had changed now. Alex was untouchable, and anyone daring to challenge him would face consequences, possibly getting fired.There was a desire within Lisa to be close to Alex, but she admitted it was really difficult. She feared that everyone would assume she had fallen in love with Al
The woman dressed in a deep black purse seemed unfocused. She had been silent for a while, her steps leading her in a direction that wasn't her intended destination.Even she couldn't understand why her feet were taking her to the cafeteria, especially since it wasn't break time yet. But for some reason, Lisa, the girl in question, really wanted to go to the cafeteria.Her throat was parched, and she could easily have called the office boy to bring her a drink. However, Lisa decided to go to the cafeteria herself. Maybe she just couldn't stand being in her office right now, so she opted to leave and head to the cafeteria.Upon arriving at the cafeteria, it felt like a perfect setup when she saw someone with their back turned, sipping a cup of coffee. Even from behind, Lisa could tell who it was—Alex.Lisa continued to watch Alex from behind, feeling the urge to greet him. But she was too embarrassed, considering how different their statuses were now. Alex had become an SEO at their wo
Alex, who was now in front of an apartment where he used to live, couldn't help but gaze at the building. There was something he needed to do at his former residence, which was why he had decided to visit.As Alex stepped out of his luxurious car, the security guard who had been on duty at the apartment for a long time, and of course, knew Alex, furrowed his brow at the sight of Alex emerging from the fancy vehicle.The security guard couldn't fathom how Alex had come to possess such a car, especially when someone had opened the car door for him, as if Alex were someone of great importance and the rightful owner of that vehicle.Alex walked towards the security guard, wearing a knowing smile, observing the guard's shocked expression. Anyone who saw this scene would be surprised, including the security guard currently before him."Good evening, sir," Alex greeted the still bewildered security guard.Alex continued to smile as he noticed the guard still in disbelief, until he waved his
Alex, still inside the apartment, repeatedly hears the sound of the apartment doorbell ringing. Alex is convinced that it must be Calista. But Alex can't fathom why Calista continues to disturb them, knowing that Calista was the one who had cheated.Hearing the apartment doorbell ring incessantly, Alex can only sigh. They really wish they could make Calista stop pressing the apartment doorbell, but Alex feels too lazy to do it.Alex gazes around at everything in the apartment. They no longer live there now and have decided to take whatever is left in there.However, since Alex didn't have anything particularly important before, Ali couldn't find anything to bring along with him right now.Alex decided to leave the apartment immediately. As Alex opened the apartment door, he noticed that Calista was standing right in front of his door. The person who had been pressing the doorbell earlier was none other than Calista, and she now glared at Alex with irritation."I've been ringing the do
Alex continued to step further away from the apartment. His steps halted when he saw someone unexpected. It was Intan, Bayu's sister, whom Alex had helped a few weeks ago."What are you doing here, Intan?"Alex walked closer to Intan. At this moment, Intan seemed unaware of Alex's presence. She appeared to be searching for something, prompting Alex to tap her shoulder."What are you doing here?" Alex inquired.Feeling the tap on her shoulder, Intan turned around. She felt relieved to see the person she had been searching for, considering that she hadn't met Alex for several weeks."I've been looking for you for a week, Alex... Where have you been?"Instead of answering Alex's question, Intan returned with a question of her own. She was visibly upset because Alex had disappeared without notifying her, and even her child had tried calling and messaging Alex multiple times with no response.Alex sighed upon hearing this. He glanced around and realized they were inside an apartment buildi
In a apartment parking lot, a man who happened to be Jordi immediately opened the car door upon seeing Alex approaching.Jordi furrowed his brow as he observed Alex's expression and allowed him to enter the car first, only following suit once Alex was securely inside."Is there something wrong, sir?" Jordi inquired, directing the question at Alex, who turned to look at his personal assistant without revealing his current thoughts."Let's head back home," Alex commanded.Jordi nodded in compliance with Alex's order and drove away from the apartment that used to be Alex's residence.Sitting in the back seat, Alex contemplated the mission assigned by the holographic board. His thoughts wandered as he attempted to open his mind and seek solutions.At this moment, Alex held great power. Completing the mission seemed relatively straightforward. He just needed to enlist a few individuals to investigate and resolve the issues related to Intan."Do you have an acquaintance, Jordi?"Jordi, focu
The darkening sky ushered in a breeze, causing the leaves to rustle and fall. There was no scent of rain in the air, despite the damp earth. The cool atmosphere and the evenly distributed air seemed to soothe the heart, bringing tranquility.His breaths were irregular. Tonight, Alex sat on the edge of his bed, staring blankly at his room. There was a feeling unsettling him, but he, Alex himself, didn't know what was causing his unease.Several times, the sound of his breaths filled the room. Alex decided to get up from the edge of the bed and head towards the balcony. His gaze was fixed on the street below, which appeared so beautiful in the night.The lights from cars and street lamps were clear to Alex as he stood on the balcony, surveying his surroundings.His gaze then shifted towards a tall building. Living in such a luxurious house as he was now, Alex had never imagined or experienced this before. He had never even dreamed that he would someday be in a place like this, a place t
The motorbike driven by Alex continued racing through the darkness of the night. Although Alex didn't know who the person trying to meet them was, they decided to go ahead and meet them.In fact, Alex had no idea whether the person wanting to meet them was a man or a woman since their voice was not very clear when they spoke.The motorbike continued to speed ahead. In the quiet darkness of the night, Alex kept riding.While passing through the eerily empty streets, a car was seen parked right in the middle of the road. Alex furrowed their brow, puzzled as to why a car was stranded like this.Without any suspicion, Alex rode closer and stopped right in front of the car. They scanned left and right, trying to assess the situation, but there were no signs of anyone around.Alex furrowed their brow again, wondering how a car could be stuck in the middle of the road like this, with no owner in sight."Hello, is anyone here?" Alex shouted, deciding to dismount from their bike and check insi
