Now Adipati and Septi have arrived at Andreas Company Group. The two of them stepped out of the car with Septi were still trying to adjust her irregular breath because of Adipati's behavior that she thought was driving the car recklessly.
Gerry, who had been following them, was finally able to breathe freely, his beloved perfectly fine.
He eventually resumed his path to a warehouse where his work was handled by Rama.
"You guys are so late!" said Daddy, who was waiting for Adipati and Septi in front of the boardroom with his assistant.
"Sorry, Dad! We overslept. Be advised, we are a new couple. Don't think so, Dear?" said Adipati immediately embracing Septi without permission.
Septi was willing to curse at Adipati. But at the moment, she's just let that go. What Adipati did was part of their deal.
"Sorry, Dad!" added Septi finally.
"Never mind! Let's go inside. The shareholders are waiting for you!" Andreas said.
"Okay, Dad!" Adipati said and Septi accordingly.
They all ended up in the conference room where about twenty-five shareholders were waiting for them.
"Let us start now!" Andreas said, asking for the attention of his colleagues.
"Of course. We've been wasting too much time," said one of the shareholders whose face is started to look wrinkled.
"Okay. Let me introduce you. He's Adipati. He is my son who will serve as CEO in my place from today!" Andreas announced, instantly made the shareholders shocked.
"Are you sure, Mr. Andreas? Don't you think you've got mistaken?" asked one of the other shareholders.
"Of course not," Andreas convinced truly.
"What can he do!" said the other shareholders.
"Never underestimate my son's ability! You got it!" Andreas said. Had the shareholders shut up.
Adipati secretly watched over those who seemed to disagree with him as CEO. Adipati intends to teach them a lesson later on.
"And introduce her, Septi, my daughter-in-law. Here she would serve as her husband's personal assistant," Andreas declared made Adipati out a shock.
FinallyAdipati realized that his Daddy insisted on having him come along with Septi to make her his assistant.
"Looks like she's gonna be a big help. It's obvious from her face that she's a smart woman," said a shareholder named Mr. Khoirul.
"Of course. She'll help Adipati. I'm sure that being in their hands, Andreas Company's name will going to get bigger and bigger," Andreas said out confidently. His instinct is always right this far.
They all finally agreed with Andreas's decision to hand over his position to Adipati who is none other than his son.
All the attendance congratulated Adipati and Septi. That was a signal that the meeting is over.
Adipati was still shocked by his father's sudden decision. Septi is his assistant. Whereas Adipati had promised Sonya would make her an assistant so they could have much time together. But that plan was all doomed to failure because of the decision of a company owner who could no longer be harassed.
"Why do Septi have to be my assistant, Dad!" Adipati asked, trying to protest. They've now moved into the CEO's room that was supposed to be Adipati's room.
"Because Daddy wants you two to be closer. Did Daddy make a false decision?" asked Andreas who smelt the rejection of his son.
"No, Dad! It's just that I have doubts about Septi. What can a countrywoman like her do," said Adipati, evidently dismissing Septi. He doesn't seem to care about Septy's feelings who also heard them.
"Never underestimate someone's ability. Specifically, that person is your own wife Adip!" said Andrew who does not like the words of his son at all.
Not without reason that Andreas wanted Swpti to be his son's assistant. He wanted Adipati to change for the better and no longer thought that wealth is everything in his life. Andreas wanted to track his son through Septi and also believed that Septi would change the nature of Adipati.
"Daddy!" called Septi finally. He ventured into the conversation between father and son because it was already concerning her.
Actually Septi is a little inconvenient to call Mr. Andreas "Daddy." But she need to do so because it was the desire of his two in-laws.
"What's the matter, Septi?" Andreas asked.
"I think what's Asipati said is true. A countrywoman like me could never become the CEO's assistant at a company as huge as Andreas Company Group. So please allow me to refuse it," Septi said that Andreas would outright reject.
"It's an absolute decision from Daddy. No one can resist it. If you still insist on saying no, fine. It seems that Daddy should cancel Adipati for being CEO of the Andreas Company Group!" Andreas made a firm decision.
Instantly Adipati who heard it became frantic. He couldn't believe that just because he refused Septi to be his personal assistant, Daddy immediately wanted to cancel him for being a CEO! How can he accept that? But, remember how firm his Daddy is, he believes that everything Daddy says is not just a threat. Adipati must accept his daddy's decision rather than lose his position. The problem with Sonya, he'll think of it later.
"All right, Dad! I agree with Septi being my personal assistant. Just then, I was afraid that Septi would objection and unable to do her job as an assistant!" Adipati said trying to reason. "Wouldn't you agree, Dear?" Adipati has requested Septi's support this time.
"Yes, I agree, Dad," replied Septi finally. Honestly, she was reluctant, but what can be done, this has been a deal between her and Adipati. Want it or not, she must have come into the game Adipati is playing. She also has to smartly act in front of Mr. Andreas.
"Good! You mustn't underestimate your wife's ability, Dip! She may have a better sense of managing the company than you do," Andreas said, making Adipati curse in his heart.
"May what daddy said to be true. So I do not have to bother teaching Septi what to do as my assistant!" said Adipati with a glance as if to underestimate.
"Alright. Since you both agreed, now it's time for me to go. Daddy left Andreas Company Group in your hands to manage and make progress. Daddy just watched from home. So please keep my trust!" Andreas said a message that sounded like a warning to Adipati and also to Septi.
"Okay, dad," said Adipati and Septi together.
"We promise to be a team that Daddy can be proud of," continued Adipati.
"Then I will go now," Andreas said. "Septi, I will leave Adipati with you. Keep an eye on him, tell me if he's making trouble in the office!" Andreas has sent a message to Septi. After saying that Andreas left the CEO's office which was his room.
After his father disappeared behind the door, Adipati immediately took off the black suit he had been wearing since morning. Adipati throws them out casually.
He hasn't lost his sense of guilt. His head went dizzy when he thought about the reason for Sonya. Adip believes that Sonya will be mad and she definitely doesn't like it.
"Get me some coffee, Sep!" Adipati's ordered go bossy. He then sat down on his chair. His feet were laid out on the table. Which one the table it said his name served as CEO replaced her father.
"You told me to make coffee? Not wrong? Hey, you! I'm not an OB, Adipati!" Septi is pissed off.
"Right. It's one of your compulsory duties as my assistant. Understand?" Adipati's speech is annoying as hell. Just became a CEO for a couple of minutes, his behavior is getting more annoying.
"Yes, boss! I will go make it," said Septi sullenly.
"Black coffee. Not too much sugar. I don't like sweet," Adipati ordered. After saying that Adipati began to look at the piles of docs on his desk. He picked up one of them and started to look around.
The CEO's room with various facilities actually makes it much easier for to Septi make coffee. The minimalist kitchen in the corner, designed in modern style instantly made septi homegrown. She smiled, but all of a sudden her smile disappeared as she remembered Adipati who was so infuriating for her.
"Alright, Boss! You said you don't like sweet, right? Then I'll make you a special one," Septi said and then started to pick up a cup and immediately make a black coffee as Adipati ordered.
Adipati who has seriously examined the yellow folder quickly closed it back as a black coffee stirred his appetite. Surely Adipati who is a coffee lover could have guessed that a cup of coffee made by Septi must taste good. He could tell by the smell of it.
"Go ahead, Boss!" Septi said with a sweet smile.
"Thank you, Septi. Your coffee looks good," Adipati said. After that he began slowly sipping his first wife's coffee, which she now serves as his personal assistant.
Septi began the countdown in the heart. 'five, four, three, two, on--'
"What the fuck is this, Septi Adelia!"
