Second Time Around Chapter 36
“You have been working for me for almost a month but this is the first time you invited me to have some snacks with you,” Enver said while we are eating the food that he bought from a fast food chain.And since he bought too much, we were unable to set it inside his car so we decided to stop by at the nearest park to eat all of it.“Are you starting to get comfortable with me around you?”“You know that I am just being professional when I am working with you,” I said. “And I am just hungry and you are already with me so I invited you.”“So, you are still not comfortable with me around?”I shook my head. “Let’s just be honest with each other, okay?” I faced him. “You are my ex-husband who cheated on me. And I am your ex-wife who just left you without even saying goodbye. Five years later, we just happened to meet again without any warning and since then, we have only focused on working on this project. Do you even think that it is that easy to get comfortable with you?”“Then, do you w

“No!” Mikea firmly said after her sister explained the reason why she went to Raiden.When she arrived, we immediately entered Enver’s office and we let them talk to each other first. We don’t want to meddle for now, especially when it is a family affair.It might anger Mikea even though we just want to help.So, we decided to hear them out first and let Michaella talk about all her reasons why she keeps insisting on working. At the same time, let Mikea talk about why she keeps stopping her sister to work.“Dad already talked to you, right? You can’t work as long as you are still studying,” Mikea added. “Why don’t you just listen?”“Because I can see that you are struggling with the problem that I created,” Michaella answered. “It is my fault that Mom got a heart attack. So, why don’t you just let me help? At least lift this guilt that I am feeling for putting her there.”“You are a graduating student now, Micha. What if you neglect your study because of the job that you are insisting

“Milan!” Enver greeted me as soon as I entered his office. He is holding a folder and he looks happy so I think he received good news. “Milan!”“W-what is the matter?” I asked. And I didn’t manage to resist when he suddenly hugged me tight. “S-sir Enver?”He immediately realized what he did and let go of me. “So-sorry about that.”Shit! I can’t believe he just hugged me. And I can't believe that I miss that hug.I cleared my throat and faced him. “W-what happened?”I went inside his office and closed the door because a lot of gossipers that saw Enver hugging me were starting to gather outside.“Look at this.” He gave me the folder that he is holding.And I opened it.“The main branch said that they already sell four of the high-end Anox cars,” he said. “And it is made through the promotion that we just discussed with Mikea and her sister last week.”“Oh my god!” I covered my mouth to stop myself from screaming.I didn’t expect that within just a week, we will be able to sell four of o

As much as possible, I tried to work in silence. And to make sure of that, I never let myself stay in the same room as Enver.And whenever there are jobs that need to work outside the office, I immediately volunteered to do that just to get away from him.Yes, I won’t deny it. I am happy to be with him again. It is nice to see and be with him again after five years.But whenever I stared at him, I suddenly remembered everything that happened before. The cheating. The lies. Those times when he went home late and drunk.It was too painful for me to keep remembering those times.So, for the sake of our job, I decided to distance myself from him.“You are avoiding him.”I almost fell from the chair when Ferry and Castiel suddenly appeared in front of me. “W-what the hell?” I roamed my eyes around and saw Dashiel at the counter. “He called you?” I turned my eyes back at them.Since I don’t really have anything to do at the office, I told Enver that I would take a half-day from work today a

“Good morning!” Art happily greeted me as soon as I got into our office.I smiled at him and that actually shocked him.“Woah,” he said. “I guess you woke up on the right side of the bed.”I put my things on the table and looked at him. “Well, I had a great time last night.”Ferry and Castiel got totally drunk last night. And as I planned, I managed to avoid getting drunk like them. I just stick to drinking two glasses of wine, juice, and lots of food.While my two friends decided to get wasted. They even added another batch of alcohol as soon as their first order finished. And as a result of that, they couldn’t even walk on their own when I invited them to get home.They even gave me trouble on whether I would bring them to their home but in the end, I chose to just bring them to my house. It is already late and I am sure Millie is waiting for me to get home.So, I just let them sleep in my room while Millie and I slept in my living area.And to pay for all the trouble they caused me
Second Time Around Chapter 41
“We only have one car left,” Enver said as he finally got the latest report that came from the three branches of Raiden shops. “And we still have two weeks.”“And as far as we all know, we have three potential clients that are in the process of purchasing the last unit that we have,” I said “But someone is trying to intercept that deal.” I put five folders in front of him.He took those folders and started reading the content of it. “Five potential clients applied to purchase the car in our installment method but when they were about to get approved, they canceled their application.” He looked at me. “And it was all that happened last week.”I nodded. “We could have finished our deal with Anox if it wasn’t for those people who backed out,” I explained. “I had Lainz investigate this matter and the only lead he got as of now is someone trying to stop them from canceling their application.”“I thought…”I shook my head. “It is not someone from the competitors. Not even related to your fa

“Is that all?” I asked Lucien and he immediately nodded.Well, they just finished presenting the project that they are planning to do together with Raiden after the deal we had with Anox. And I already finished giving them pointers on what they need to adjust about it.And I didn’t realize that we did it in just a short time.“All of your pointers have been noted and we are going to start revising the project presentation,” Lucien said.It doesn’t really need to change anything about it. Just a minor adjustment and their presentation is good to go so we finished it earlier than I expected.I sighed and stood up. “Okay. If you need anything else, I am at Enver’s office.” I tapped his shoulder and walked toward the office.To be honest, I just wanted to make myself busy so I stop worrying about the result of what Enver is trying to do right now.I know I told him that I trust him on solving this matter but I still can’t help but worry about it since we don’t really have any idea who wan
Second Time Around Chapter 43
I was just sitting in front of my table as I stared at the elevator while waiting for Enver to arrive. He still hasn't messaged me anything since he left earlier and I am freaking nervous now that it is almost five in the afternoon.I still don’t have any idea what is happening at the store right now and I need to know that before I make a decision about the deal that Karyu offered to me.The deal we have to get the permanent partnership with Anox is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Raiden. If we fail this time to secure it, Raiden will face a great loss and it will never be able to recover from it.And one of its consequences is Raiden will not be able to get a permanent partnership with another car manufacturer again.That is why I am considering taking this deal.If leaving Enver’s life is the only thing that I can do to save Raiden from its possible great downfall, then I guess I don’t really have any choice but to do it.Raiden has become his life. He built it as soon as he m
