Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Chapter 426 - Meeting Again

Lisa should be happy to know that her friend is married and in the near future, Andien will face almost no financial difficulties. But even during her journey home until now when she lay down on Vira's apartment bed, her mind drifted away and her heart felt heavy. 

Maybe Andien can fool others, but she can't fool Lisa. Deep down inside, she was sure that her friend must want to run away from reality. It was not Andien's wish to marry an elderly foreign man. She had to do that to save her and her mother's lives.

The night came slowly, greeting Lisa who was still motionless on the bed. From afternoon until now at 10 pm, she continued to stare at the ceiling. Her mind was trying to guess what Andien was doing. Has she eaten? Did her new husband treat her well?

No matter how bad today was, or how sad yesterday was, night will turn to morning. The moon and hundreds of stars that adorned the night sky would be replaced by the same sun that woke Lisa from her bed every day.

Since she was still a new employee and was afraid of being called lazy by her coworkers, the woman tried to look good. Every time she passed her co-workers, the woman would give them a friendly smile, never forgetting to say good morning.

Seeing Aaron walking towards her made Lisa feel bad. Not to mention that the man's hands were carrying some files, and the smile on his lips looked forced.

"Good morning Miss Lisa. Enjoy your work again. Incidentally, I have an important meeting after this that I can't leave, and you are the only person I can ask for help," Aaron said as he handed some of the files in front of Lisa, "This is the file that Mr Surya wants, so please give it to him, okay?"

Lisa was silent, unable to say anything. Her eyes fell on the multiple files that were now in front of her. 

From the first day she worked at the Better Life company, she already knew that Surya was not a good boss. He's perverted, bald, and his room is filled with the smell of cigarette smoke! 

She had been trying very hard not to cross paths with the bald man for weeks. She finished all the work that she was tasked with before the deadline so that the man would not invite her into his cramped, smelly room.

Why did the world seem to hate her so much and never let her see peaceful days in her life?

Seeing Lisa who didn't immediately take the file he brought made Aaron frown. He wouldn't let the new employee disobey what he ordered!

"Miss Lisa, I ask you to deliver this file to Mr. Surya's room. Don't you hear me?"

"Oh, yes sir! Sorry I have a lot of things going on in my mind haha. Give me the file, let me go straight to Mr. Surya's room now."

Even though her heart told her not to take the file and told him that there was something she had to finish immediately, Lisa still took the file. She gave a wide smile that actually looked fake then turned around.

"Okay. Thank you very much, Miss Lisa."

Aaron's voice almost made Lisa blush in anger. Why did that guy's tone sound like he was insulting her!?

"Damn! That bastard must have intentionally asked me to go to his room. How could Aaron have a meeting in the morning like this! Huh, that bald guy just wants to see me in his room." Lisa grumbled softly.

As she walked to Surya's room which was on the 3rd floor, Lisa felt several pairs of eyes looking at her secretly. 

She has been working in Better Life for a month. But until now, she had not managed to build a bridge of friendship with any of her coworkers. They only talk to her when they needed, and it's always work-related. People who take the initiative to return her greeting are so few that her ten fingers would easily count.

At first, Lisa did feel confused and always grumbled every time she had to eat lunch alone or when no one answered her greetings. 

'What's wrong with them? They don't seem to like me?' Such a thought could never leave her mind. But as time went on, the woman got used to it and didn't mind it anymore.

Maybe she should not build a bridge of friendship with them so that her work will not be disturbed. It would only create problems for her to befriend them. She knew she'd have to face Surya at her slightest mistake.

But it seems that her surroundings really want her to be free. If not, why did they just let her into the bald man's room?

Meanwhile, inside Surya's room that's filled with cigarette smoke.

With a friendly smile, Lisa handed a few files to him. At first, she wanted to put it on the table and then leave before she got lung cancer. But before the files landed on the wooden table, Surya's sweaty hands touched Lisa's!

There were goosebumps all over Lisa's body and the urge to slap Surya's chubby cheeks increased drastically! But the woman tried her best to hold back because she still needed this job. All Lisa did was quickly withdrew her hand and walked back a few steps.

Lisa clenched her fists behind her back and hoped this suffering would end in a matter of seconds. It's crazy how long she had to breath in the same room with the bald man!

"That's the file that Aaron ordered to give to you. Then I'll excuse myself sir, I still have a lot of work to do!" 

"Wait a moment!"

Before Lisa could touch the doorknob, she heard the man's familiar voice. The woman kept cursing in her heart. Lisa rapidly took her breath and then turned around.

"What's the matter, sir?" She asked in a slightly trembling tone. Honestly, she was actually afraid of what made her have to stay longer in Surya's room.

"Make me coffee, please," the man asked in a spoiled tone. He leaned back in the chair and his eyes fell on Lisa's chest. "Use a lot of milk, okay?"

What an asshole!!

Lisa immediately covered her chest with her arms. She nodded her head quickly and walked out of Surya's room with a flushed face!

"It's crazy how impudent he is when he looks at my chest. If he weren't my boss, I'd have taken his eyes out! Just because he's my superior, does he think he can treat me like this?!"

"Now why should I make him coffee? The guy himself has an assistant! Just leave it be, let me just give him some rat poison in his coffee so he will die!"

In the quiet and medium-sized pantry, Lisa is seen brewing a sachet of coffee. From earlier, her lips, which were red in color thanks to the lipstick she was wearing, let out a grunt. It crossed her mind to put all kinds of poison she could find. But how could Lisa find poison in the office pantry?

"Just make it very hot. Let his tongue burn! So that he will learn not to be a jerk!"

Five minutes later, Lisa opened the door to Surya's room while carrying a cup of hot coffee. She felt a little relieved when she saw that there was someone else in the room besides her.

Wait. 

Why is Aaron here?! Didn't he say he had an important meeting?!
