Alesha watched from a distance, then frowned at the reaction of the receptionist who looked surprised.
Shortly thereafter, the woman approached him.
"Miss, come with me to the CEO's room" he asked with a beaming smile because moments ago he got angry from the boss for not directly telling the woman to come in.
Alesha got up, followed the receptionist behind. He passed by the workspace of several staff who were only blocked by thick transparent glass. For a while he felt that the people there were staring at him.
A few moments later, he arrived in front of Rafael's room. "Please come in, Miss." The receptionist was welcoming while bowing respectfully.
Meanwhile, Alesha's reflexes entered with her clumsy steps.
While the receptionist returned after dropping off the lover of the company boss. When he arrived at the workspace of other employees, he was blocked by one or two people who were there.
"Laura, who was that woman?" ask one of them.
"It looks like he's only been here for the first time" added the other.
The receptionist called Laura then smiled triumphantly as if she had just gotten a big fish.
"You have to hear this exclusive news" he said with intonation made louder. Intentionally lure other employees to listen.
After being satisfied with the reaction of the staff who were now staring at her, Laura took a strong breath then said the essence of the sari.
"That woman .. was the lover of President Rafael."
Instantly, the entire office was filled with waves of admiration and boisterous whispers that were increasingly crowded.

Meanwhile, Alesha entered Rafael's office. The masculine scent immediately greeted him as he entered the territory.
The room looks clean and tidy. Furniture details, frames attached to the wall, the following objects that adorn the high shelves in this room look shiny. It looks like how this room is so well-maintained.
"Please sit down."
The baritone voice made Alesha turn her gaze.
Raphael allowed Alesha to sit in the chair right in front of him.
"We're getting to the point." Rafael opens his voice.
Rafael then thrust a piece of paper in front of Alesha.
Makes the woman wince in wonder. Alesha slowly took the paper, then read it word by word without missing a single thing.
Of course, with perfectly dilated pupils.
He stared at Rafael with his mouth round.
"What's this?" tanyanya surprised.
Rafael smiled lightly. "What do you see?"
"Agreement ... Marriage contract?" alesha asked hesitantly.
In the letter contained the following contract marriage agreement with details of the debt Alesha requested, as well as other details added in detail.
The marriage contract will run for one year. Under it, it has been stamped that needs to be affixed with a signature of approval.
Rafael nodded. "How's it?"
Alesha still couldn't believe it. He thought Rafael would give him a free loan.
Rafael was still smiling and leaning forward. "Miss, the money you asked for is huge? You know that, right?"
"Yes, right." Alesha. A second later he denied. "Ralat, I'm not asking, I'm borrowing."
Rafael then straightened his body. "I've been making this deal all night. Of course with a very profitable offer."
"You can freely ask me to give the money away for free or to return the money without interest. Just try to borrow money in a bank or other institution, can you guarantee you can pay?"
Rafael's remarks made Alesha look down. There's a point too. That is why he did not think to borrow money in the bank because he was not sure he could pay with interest. However, still, this still stuck in his senses.
"However, why can you easily invite a new person known yesterday afternoon to get married? It really doesn't make any sense. I'm telling you, even without this agreement, I wouldn't run away from the responsibility of paying my debts."
Alesha straightened her body, looking at Rafael straight with her eyebrows linked.
"Relax, Miss. It's not a real wedding because all you have to do is pretend." Rafael has now confirmed.
Alesha flicked her hair back suddenly feeling sultry, because her energy came out facing so many magical situations.
"Then why should I? I mean, yesterday you met my friends too, right? Why did you decide to set me up?"
Rafael chuckled at the ridiculous question. "I don't know either. Maybe, somehow the timing is so precise and you look like you really need the money."
Alesha frowned in annoyance. His face looked like he needed money, right? But anyway, that is true. Alesha could not deny.
"I need to think for a while" Alesha said later.
Come to think of it however, Rafael was the person he only knew yesterday. Alesha is used to hanging out with sugar daddies, but only to that extent, tomorrow she will definitely forget those people.
Unlike this time, he thought Rafael would end up the same and only knew the name because it was tied to debt. However, it was unexpected that the person instead made the terms of the contract marriage.
A contract marriage, a pretend marriage, or whatever it's called, still keeps them tied down basically. Moreover, Alesha only knew Rafael yesterday afternoon, he could not trust the man completely.
"I knew you'd doubt." Rafael makes a sound, making Alesha break her daydream.
"Then from that, I have prepared it very carefully. I've invited witnesses to this agreement. You can be sure of his guarantee because he is a lawyer from a trusted agency."
Willy now looked at Alesha straight, trying to convince her with his serious gaze. "That way, you can sue me if you do anything."
Alesha seemed to think for a moment.
"After you sign this agreement, you can only get the money." Rafael added.
Right, the most important thing for Alesha is the money. He plays his finger while thinking. Maybe, he had to do it.
"Where's the lawyer?" alesha asked with a steady connotation.
Rafael saw the watch on his wrist. "It should be here by now."
He then opened his phone. Pressing the call for Rudy's number. The call was immediately raised. However, a panicked voice was received by Rafael.
"Don't be noisy, I have to take care of something at the police station." The man answered Rafael's call with a slightly whispered tone.
Rafael asked, the man hung up the phone.
Alesha did not know what was behind the phone conversation. However, seeing Rafael's unpleasant face by frowning, made him understand that something was happening.
"I'll wait."
In the end Zaara decided because she thought there was no other way.
