“Sure. I'll help.”
“Thanks Xav-“
“But with one condition.” Cut Xavier, now his face turned serious. Staring Susanto. “Change ownership of all shares in the name of Charlotte. New I'll help.”
Susanto and Charlotte both flinched. They did not expect Xavier to apply for such a condition. Charlotte knew, she only got a small share of that stock. The rest belonged to his father. If Xavier applies for the condition, he is not sure his father will grant it. Considering Shinta will get a pretty big share.
“Xavi..”.
“Honey, quiet for a minute ya.” Sela Xavier warns her subtly. It seems her husband did not want her to interfere.
“Ta-but Xavier, Charlotte hasn't been able to do it.”
“Do what? My wife doesn't have to do anything. You just have to change it. That's not at all difficult.”
“I-iya but all need process and-“
“Do not worry. You just need to capture whatever files you need. The rest let me take care of.” Xavier said quickly. Denying all Susanto's denials. It is his father-in-law who needs that help, therefore, his request must be fulfilled no matter if it is forcing.
“I have to tell the higher-ups first.”
“Please. I'll wait. But unfortunately, the fate of your company can not wait long. The blockage of shares can accelerate the weak performance of employees. They, sooner or later will know if the company they work for will collapse. You will be more trouble.” Xavier.
“B-good. Then, can I talk to my daughter for a minute?” susanto Pinta.
Xavier turned to Charlotte beside him. He thought for a moment, but in the end he agreed. “Good. Please.” Xavier got up and walked away.
But a second later he turned around, “Honey, take your father to lunch together. After you're done talking call me.”
“Iya.”
After saying that, Xavier actually went inside his study on the ground floor.
“Dad, what do you want to say?” ask Charlotte.
Susanto quickly moved and sat down next to Charlotte. “Char, please dad. Ask Xavier to change his mind. You know, I'll definitely give you a share. Now is not the right time to change share ownership. You understand right?” susanto.
Charlotte wants to say that she's not interested in the company's shares at all. Unfortunately, Xavier has already made his decision. It was wrong to help his father. Because of what would happen later, his father would definitely give the company to Shinta. The company originally belonged to his grandfather, he was not willing if the company fell into the wrong hands. In fact, two years after Grandpa died, the company went bankrupt twice. Charlotte's afraid. Is it better to follow Xavier's words?
“Yes, just follow Xavi's request. Let him handle everything until the company is stable.”
“It's not that easy Charlotte.”
“Easy if dad trusts me.”
Charlotte holds Susanto's hand, trying to give him understanding.“Well, listen to Charlotte. Xavier wants to help, he doesn't mean anything.”
“Do not have your word? You're stupid or how Charlotte is! He obviously wants to take control of our family company. Using you. You don't understand the mind of a businessman. They will always try to find a golden opportunity to realize their goals. Including using the people closest to him. That's you!”
“Including father?”
“Char?!”
“Dad also used me, Dad forced me to marry him just to save the company. It's still the same now. How could Dad do that to me?” lirih Charlotte opened her eyes to hold back the tears that would spill. He has no power to restrain himself. His father easily judged people worse than him.
“Dad knows how difficult I am, it is not equivalent to what Dad asked me.”
“Charlotte.. not so father meant.”.
“I'm tired yah.” Charlotte wiped away the tear on her cheek. Then stand. He has no power to look at his father, “As far as father wants what. Charlotte will agree to whatever Xavier decides. Rest here, Charlotte will prepare lunch.”
After saying that, Charlotte walked away leaving her pensive father in his place.
^
The lunch was quiet. No one is talking. Xavier, Charlotte and Susanto sat down to enjoy their meal. He watched Charlotte who kept quiet. To Susanto, his father-in-law. They both seemed to be keeping their distance. There is no friendliness or reprimand for both. Xavier knew, maybe it was the aftermath of the conditions he proposed.
But his worries seemed to disappear, when he found out Charlotte strongly rejected Susanto's request and chose to side with him. He had already heard all their conversations with the tappers in the Mansion. Xavier did not expect, his wife trusted him more. That makes Xavier happy.
“Mr Susanto, is the food good?” ask Xavier.
“This is delicious.” Answer Susanto. It seemed like the man was not enjoying his food, He looked lethargic and moody.
“Padahan, there are some that are minus.” Xavier glanced at Charlotte.
Charlotte turned to Xavier, and Xavier continued to speak. “Like an overcook Soup, hard Truffle bread and also a slightly salty steak. I'm right, honey?” Xavier smiled intently, an annoying smile.
Charlotte replied with a forced smile. Xavier is really smart to make him shy in front of his father. At least he can praise other good foods, right, why should his food be made. Xavier the protestor. Grouse Charlotte.
“Thank you for the food. After this I have to return to Jakarta.” Susanto said as he rubbed his mouth with a tissue.
“You don't live here? At least let my wife feel good when her father visits her. He's always lonely here.” Xavier said a little joke. Charlotte grunts softly.
‘What the fuck? My loneliness is also because you locked me up!’ gerrutu annoyed.
“Sorry. Because of the many problems that occurred, I had to hurry back. Next time I'll bring your mother and sister here.” Susanto to Charlotte.
“Good well.”
“I'll take Dad to the front.” Charlotte stood up and took her father forward.
^
“Xavi.”
“Ya?”
Charlotte walked up to Xavier on their way into the Mansion. They're on the lawn, after taking Charlotte's father away.
Xavier looked at the silent Charlotte, as if she was thinking. “What's up?”
Charlotte is seen fondling to talk. But he dared to look seriously at Xavier. Take a deep breath. “About company problems, you don't need to help him.”
Forehead Xavier frowning, “Why? You don't trust me?”
“Not. Not because of it.”tutur Charlotte. He looked down for a moment, looking for the right words.
“It's my Grandpa's company, I want to try to keep it on my own. I don't want you to bother thinking about it. Leave it to me, I'll try to finish it.” Clearly full of confidence.
Xavier fell silent, his hands clenched against his chest, his gaze assessing Charlotte's earnestness. “Tell me one thing, the company that is close to Collaps, is quite difficult to return as before. Even the best entrepreneurs fail sometimes. You're sure of your ability that you can recover?”
“Yes. I'm sure! I'll try hard.” Charlotte's reply was serious, full of spirit. One thing she hoped for, her husband's approval. “Give me a chance.”
Xavier fell silent, watching Charlotte's face intensely. His fingers tapped on his burly arm. As if in doubt of his wife's wishes. A few minutes passed, there was no reply from Xavier, the man just silently looked at him without any intention of saying a word. Charlotte thinks Xavier won't let her. Though he really wanted to restore his grandfather's company to be completely stable. At least he should try, rather than do nothing. He will certainly regret, if the company that has been pioneered by his grandfather since the first bankruptcy or bankruptcy.
“Good. You can do it.” Xavier said at the end.
Charlotte looked up, she was wide-eyed for a moment. “Really? Thank you Xa-“
“But with one condition.” Xavier lifted Charlotte's chin and whispered in front of her face. The cold and firm look was clear. Charlotte's a little scared. “I'll be going. No rebuttal.”
