Meeting Mr. Mirza’s Clients
In that simple house, Gifer was still pensive on the king size bed in his room. The man couldn’t move at all because last night when he ran away, he was caught by Kiano and the two bodyguards. Gifer cursed his actions because he shouldn’t have gone to the airport in the first place, but to another place to avoid Kiano’s guess.
“You idiot! Why didn’t I think of going somewhere else first, so Kiano wouldn’t guess and catch up with me at the airport, damn it!” Gifer said as he ruffled his hair and lay down on the bed with white sheets.
BRUGH!
“Huh… I was supposed to return to Indonesia soon and continue my work. At this rate, who will take over my job? Haris? Haris won’t be able to either, Haishhs! Is it Sekar? What does that girl know about business partnerships and agreements? Sekar has only been helping me, just like Haris.” Gifer scratched his face.
“My soul is here, but my mind is on work.”
Not long after Gifer thought about his work, suddenly the sound of knocking was heard from the door of his room.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
“Gif, can we talk?” The voice came from outside Gifer’s room, it was the same voice he heard last night. Who else but Kiano. Gifer recognized that voice very well. Gifer’s eyes glanced at the white door in his room.
“What is Kiano doing again? “Gifer grumbled softly while rubbing his forehead. Without answering, Gifer walked towards the door of his room and opened it.
Squeak!
“What’s wrong again?” Gifer asked with a stern voice and eyes that seemed to not want to be ruled by anyone, even Kiano. His eyes glanced at Kiano with lips that were completely devoid of smile.
“It’s okay, I just want to invite you to dinner at a luxury hotel around this city.” Kiano said with a cheerful face. Hoping that Gifer would come to the dinner he made.
“Whatever you want.” Gifer said briefly while turning around. Gifer was fed up with all this.
“Don’t forget to come. I’ll send you the right clothes for tonight.” Kiano ordered. Gifer immediately turned his body back to Kiano.
“What’s the occasion to invite me? Why don’t you just invite Nara?” Gifer asked again.
Kiano smiled, the man forgot that Gifer would suspect him. Kiano had to find various reasons for Gifer to believe him. Kiano thought a little before telling Gifer.
“I want to meet my client. You are also the CEO, so I want to ask your opinion on our business cooperation.” Kiano said, Gifer’s eyes immediately widened and raised his eyebrows, as if he believed what Kiano said.
“What if I don’t come?” He challenged.
“I’ll make sure you come.” Kiano said.
“By dragging me along with your two bodyguards, right? What kind of coercion is this?” Gifer insinuated with a frivolous look.
“Never mind, I don’t want to argue with you. Later tonight, around 7:30 pm, I’ll pick you up, and you should already be prepared with the clothes I’ll give you.” After saying that, Kiano simply left her. As for Gifer? He still stood still and digested all of Kiano’s words.
“How nice of Kiano to say that so easily. If I come, I’ll never come even if he drags me! I’ll lock the door to the room!” Gifer said annoyed while moving his lips. Gifer entered his room again and closed the door. Gifer also didn’t forget to lock the door.

Time passed quickly, now it was already 4:30 p. m. where all the workers had time to go home, but not Belvina and Anggi who were now at the big mansion owned by Mr. Kevin, the eyebrow commonly called Mr. Kevin. Raya hadn’t gone home yet because her snack shop was so crowded this time that she had to stay open late. Raya had informed her father through her smartphone that Gifer was in New York, but it seemed that Mr. Kevin still doubted what Raya had said through the text message sent to him. Now, Belvina and Anggi had to tell Mr. Kevin what he needed to know.
“So how is it? Did you guys find any information about where Gifer is right now?” Mr. Kevin asked without further ado.
“Yes, we are also here to tell you something about Gifer, Mr. Kevin. Please Vin, tell us what you’ve heard.” Angggi said while nudging Belvina who was sitting on his right.
“So here’s the thing, last night, Gifer called me, Mr. Kevin. Gifer said that Nara took him in New York, and he also said that today he would return to Indonesia, Gifer was trying to escape. But until now there’s no sign of him coming back here. I wonder, did Gifer fail to escape?” Belvina tried to explain what happened to her.
“Ah so it’s true, Gifer is in New York? Alright then I’ll send some messengers to pick up Gifer in that country. But, this must also be careful, don’t get caught by Kiano’s messenger. I also want to know, what exactly is their mission until they want to kidnap Gifer.” Mr. Kevin said.
“If it’s a matter of love, Mr. Kevin. Nara liked Gifer for a long time, that’s why she always did bad things to Gifer until she could get Gifer’s love.” Anggi said. Mr. Kevin immediately frowned.
“If it’s really about love, shouldn’t Nara find a way to make Gifer like her?” Asked Mr. Kevin.
“The thing is, Gifer didn’t like Nara for a long time, Mr. Kevin. Gifer himself told me that.” Belvina said.
“If it’s about love, I’m worried about one thing…” Mr. Kevin paused his sentence for a moment. Belvina and Anggi looked at each other and faced Mr. Kevin again.
“Why is that, Mr. Kevin? Belvina asked.
“I’m worried that with the way Nara kidnapped Gifer, Nara will make Gifer her groom. Especially in New York, the venue and the decorations they choose are definitely no joke.” Mr. Kevin said.
“But, wouldn’t a wedding take place if the bride and groom like each other? But this Gifer doesn’t like Nara, how can they get married?” Anggi asked.
“It could be that they forced Gifer in any way. it could also be threatening him with violence” guessed Mr. Kevin. Belvina and Anggi suddenly widened their eyes wide.
“If that’s the case, we have to cancel it quickly.” Belvina said.

Night fell, Kiano and Gifer were already at Hotel Louis, precisely in the restaurant section with its VVIP room. There were already some dishes and alcohol provided to celebrate the business that Kiano was going to run together with his client.
“Where’s the Mr. Mirza you’re talking about? He hasn’t come for a while.” Gifer said.
“Take it easy, soon Mr. Mirza will come.” Kiano said casually.
Not waiting long, a man in a neat suit and tie came, the door of the VVIP room was opened by Kiano’s bodyguards. Kiano’s gaze immediately focused on the door of the VVIP room when he saw the silhouette of Mr. Mirza. Instantly
“Mr. Mirza is here.” Kiano immediately stood up followed by Gifer.
“Welcome, Mr. Mirza.” Kiano said while extending his hand to shake hands with Mr. Mirza.
However, Mr. Mirza’s gaze immediately went to Gifer who was still bowing his head, then looked up and was surprised because it turned out that Mr. Mirza who Kiano meant was the client that Gifer had rejected at that time. Gifer widened his eyes when he knew that. Similarly, Mr. Mirza was also surprised when he saw Gifer who was with Kiano.
“Tu-Mr. Mirza? Indra’s father?” Called Gifer to make sure.
