Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Chapter 673 - Singing Challenge

"Mrs. Indri, today is your last day working at the Better Life company, how about you sing us a song or two as a sign of farewell!?"

Not long after Indri and Lisa returned to the room, several colleagues walked up to them with mics. Thinking that today was the last day they saw Indri made them treat Indri and Lisa like close friends.

But not all of them dared to treat Indri as their friend. Because usually, the woman was always cold in the office. Unlike Lisa, who had a warm aura and often greeted them with a cheerful face.

In the room, no songs were playing from the loudspeakers. The mic was seen lying on the table and sofa. Some of these workers were tired of singing and preferred to talk with their friends.

Some of those who didn't dare to treat Indri like their friends looked at the group of stupid men and exchanged disbelieving looks. 

"Isn't he so bold to ask Mrs. Indri to sing?"

"Wow, great, he has guts too."

"Prepare the camera, guys!"

Almost everyone in the room could swear that Indri would refuse their request to sing. Maybe the woman will only sing when the apocalypse is near!

"Fine if that's what you want." Indri replied firmly. Her sweet and strangely graceful voice filled the room.

Suddenly, those who don't believe Indri will do that look at each other with dumbfounded eyes. But not long after, they shouted Indri's name and whistled.

Inside the room, which is large enough to accommodate more than 20 people, there is a thunderous applause. Until now they still didn't expect a woman like Indri, to have a cold personality, would sing in front of them!

Indri chuckled and accepted the mic. "What should I sing…"

With the lamp emitting colorful lights, Indri stood in the middle of the room. Apart from her melodious voice coming from the loudspeaker, no other sound was heard. The song she chose had a mellow tone.

Although Lisa had never heard the song before, she knew that the song was about separation. Almost everyone drunkenly heard the woman's soft voice. Immediately, the karaoke room that Indri had rented was filled with sadness.

Other people might think that Indri chose this song to say goodbye to them. But Lisa knew very well the reason she chose that mellow song. Indri chose the song because she wanted to say goodbye to Oscar, and also her hopes with him.

After the last note of the song played, the sound of thunderous applause filled the karaoke room again.

"Crazy! Her voice is so good!"

"Oh my gosh, Mrs. Indri, I really didn't think that you had such a beautiful voice!"

"Sing one more song for us!"

Indri put the black mic on the table and waved her hand, "Ah, you guys sing! I'm tired of this…"

After saying that, Indri sat where she came from, not next to Lisa. Maybe because the workers were still reluctant to Indri, and not to mention the frightening aura around her, no one dared to persuade Indri any further.

"Okay!" 

Suddenly one of Lisa's colleagues got up from the sofa and looked around her, "Now, who hasn't been singing since earlier?"

Hearing that question immediately made Lisa feel uncomfortable. She suddenly had a bad feeling. Her heart beat faster when she felt several pairs of eyes looking at her.

"You haven't tried, have you?" Aaron asked in disbelief.

Suddenly, before Lisa could answer Aaron's question, the door of the karaoke room opened from the outside. They immediately turned their attention away and looked towards the door.

With hasty steps, Cicilia entered while carrying her tote bag. Lisa frowned when she saw that the woman was no longer wearing the work clothes that she wore this morning.

Don't tell them that woman came home first to dress up and change her clothes…

Cicilia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the room was still packed. At first, she thought that they had all gone home and that she was late because she stopped by her house for a little make-up!

Earlier when she was having lunch with Aaron and the others, she just remembered that they had an event this afternoon! 

Cicilia, who loves the nightlife with all her soul, definitely won't skip social gatherings but not with her work attire. Finally, exactly at half past 3 in the afternoon, she was allowed to go home first and change into more casual clothes.

A tight black dress with lace from the neck to the chest adorned her body that afternoon. Her long, curly hair was tied in a ponytail, making her cheekbones stand out. 

"You're so late." Aaron grumbled while chuckling in annoyance, "Hey, close that door!"

"Gimme a break."

After closing the door to the karaoke room that Indri had rented, Cicilia walked past and she only greeted Aaron, her co-workers, and finally Indri. The woman didn't look at Lisa at all.

Normally, Lisa was one hundred percent sure that Cicilia would sit next to her. Even though she was an extrovert while Lisa an introvert, she would still sit next to her. 

But not now. Lisa didn't know what she was doing until Cicilia didn't want to sit next to her.

'Is she mad that I didn't pick up her phone calls?' Lisa wondered.

"So where were we?" Aaron asked after all the guests Indri had invited were present, "Oh right! Lisa, sing us a song!"

Hearing Lisa who hasn't been singing made Cicilia jump in, "Why isn't Lisa singing yet?"

"Well.. the others have tried it, now it's your turn to sing, Miss Lisa! It doesn't matter what song, we promise we won't laugh at you…"

From the past until now, Lisa didn't have the talent or skill to sing. She does like to listen to songs and sometimes sings in the shower, but that doesn't mean she has a sweet voice!

"Oh, I can't. I can't sing, you know!"
