One of the company's top officer, namely the Director of Finance, Anggoro Kusuma was seen running towards a black sports car that had just stopped right in front of building main entrance.

Anggoro opened the car's door and then bowed politely as a young man got out of the car. He adjusted his coat arrogantly. 

"Congratulations on your victory, Mr. David," Anggoro said, still bowing. 

"Hm. Did you prepare this welcome?" David asked still standing by his car. 

"No, sir. The employees are enthusiastic about welcoming you. They are very proud because you were able to win the big tender," Anggoro said, who had already raised his head. 

"Uh, I see," David said curtly. 

That means I have to win tenders like this more often so that I can be admired more, David thought. 

David waved his hand at the employees crammed into the front of the building. The female employees immediately screamed as David flashed his smile. It was undeniable, David Araya was classified as a handsome man. 

"Where's Augusta?" David asked, not finding the general manager among the crowd wishing to congratulate him. Now David shook hands with them, putting on that fake friendly smile. 

"Agusta is working on a report, sir. So he can't come down here!" Anggoro replied. 

"Call Agusta! Ask him to go to my office right now!" David said. 

"Okay sir!" Anggoro said. 

Anggoro was wondering why lately, David seemed to be dealing with Agusta quite often. But he didn't ask anything. 

"Thank you for the welcome. I am very happy to have loyal employees like you. But I'm sorry, I can't stay here long. I have to go back to my room to think again about other cooperation proposals. Excuse me," David said. 

David then sauntered toward the elevator and up to the floor where his room was. 

Valentino or Aditya who witnessed David's attitude felt nauseous now. 

"Eh, do you see him? He's really cool, isn't he? His style is elegant, you know!" praised Diana. 

"Handsome too, don't forget!" Levi added. 

The two women giggled. 

"Do you have a crush on Mr. David?" Aditya asked. 

Levi immediately looked annoyed at Aditya. 

"Geeky, Why do you like taking care of other people's business so much?" Levi said.

"I was just asking," Aditya said.

"Your question is strange. We're also not very close, geeky," Diana said.

Aditya was never annoyed at being called 'geeky' by people. He was actually happy because it meant that his disguise worked.

"I'm sorry, I was just trying to be friendly to you. Because as a new employee, I also want to get to know other employees," Aditya said in a low voice.

Diana snorted.

"You? Be friend with us? Don't dream, okay?" Levi said with a laugh.

"Dit, you didn't realize it, did you? If you have been accepted into this company, you should be grateful. Look at your appearance! It really doesn't reflect that you work in a big company like AL ​​Group," Diana insulted.

"Geeky, you don't have a mirror at home, do you? With your appearance like this that is really tacky, you might want to get to know us. Don't expect it!" Levi said sarcastically.

Aditya tried to be patient. He kept reminding himself to keep playing his role as a geeky man who was insulted by people so that his true identity was safe. He certainly didn't want what he had planned to fail just because of his identity.

"So what's wrong with my appearance? I'm neat," Aditya said.

"Strange patterned shirts, weird trousers, strangely styled hair, very thick glasses, and you have a big mole on your cheek," Diana said, frowning. 

Aditya looked at himself through the big mirror. 

"Your appearance is very strange. So don't dream of getting to know us or other employees. Because that's impossible," Levi said. 

Levi also took Diana to leave from there. Aditya exhaled roughly. If he hadn't been pretending to be a stupid geeky man, he would have retaliated against the two women's insults.

"You called me, sir?" Augusta asked.

"Yeah, right. Sit down!" David ordered.

Agusta sat warily. Somehow he seemed to have a bad feeling. 

"Agusta, I want you to make another proposal for a big tender," David said. 

Augusta was wide-eyed. 

"Another big tender proposal, sir?" Agusta repeated. 

"Yes. But of course. It must be in my name. And you have to keep this secret again. But don't worry! I'll definitely give you a big bonus," David said.

The man twisted his chin. He thought Agusta would definitely agree with the offer.

"But, I'm sorry sir. I can not. It's really hard for me. And that's not part of my job either," Agusta said.

David immediately made an unsightly face.

"What did you say? You refuse what I ordered to you?" David said.

The man's tone that was originally relaxed had now risen.

"It's not like that, sir. But I really don't think I can," Agusta replied.

"Non sense. Yesterday you were able to make such a good proposal that the big tender could be into my hands. Now you're acting like you don't know," David said.

The young man tapped his finger on the table.

"Oh, I know. Is this about rewards? Oh, this is it. If you want more in return, just say so!" David said.

Agusta was silent.

Damn, this isn't about reward, stupid. The problem was that yesterday was your stepbrother. And I don't want to bother him because of you, damn it. Agusta thought to himself.

"Why are you silent? Mention the nominal!" David urged.

Agusta swallowed hard his saliva.

Damn, I hate being forced like this, Agusta thought.

"Okay, okay. Are you waiting for me to offer the reward?" David asked.

Agusta looked at David directly.

Not that, stupid.

Agusta wanted to shout those words directly at the man who became as a president director.

David smiled mockingly.

A lowly person like him would want more in return, David thought.

"I don't mind. Whatever you want, I will accept it. But convince me, you have to make a good proposal," David said.

Agusta was still silent.

David was getting impatient.

"I assume you agree. I'll wait for the proposal in two weeks," David decided.

He stood up and walked over to the refrigerator.

"But, sir ...."

"I don't want to hear it again. In two weeks I want the proposal to be on my desk," David said, not wanting to be denied.

Agusta wanted to curse.

"Okay, sir," he said desperately so he wouldn't punch David in the face.

"Good," David said.

He was satisfied. The man opened the refrigerator and intended to get a beer.

Crazy man, in the office he wants to drink beer? Crazy, Agusta cursed.

"Then I'll excuse myself, sir," Agusta said.

David waved his hand.

Once out of David's office, Agusta pinched his temples. He took his cell phone out of his pocket and looked for someone's number. He immediately contacted the person. 

"Valen, come to my office! That idiot is troubling me again," Agusta said.

    Dear, Readers. Thank you for faithfully reading Valentino Araya's story so far. Valentino Araya is one of my favorite characters (well, how could it not be a favorite if I created it myself) hehe. The idea of ​​this novel was created just like that and did not expect that many people had given up their time and coins to read this story. I really never expected it.
