Alden was surprised to find Annabelle standing with eyes glaring in front of the ICU room.
“You why are you here ?”
Alden sighed and smiled faintly. He was discharged from the hospital after 4 days of treatment.
Om Rano was also admitted to the same hospital after his critical period passed but still did not wake up from his coma.
“Getting your papa, Belle,” Alden said walking closer to Annabelle.
“We don't need your attention.”
“What I do is my responsibility as the head of the company, Belle. The incident that befell Om Rano is related to the company affairs.”
“No need for subsidiary owners to have to humble themselves swipe a lowly employee like papa.”
“Belle, i...” Alden looked annoyed but stopped continuing his sentence.
“I hate you Alden !” hissing Annabelle. “It looks like your curse hoping death picks up not only applies to me but my whole family.”
“Belle, sorry for what I said that time because it was too emotional. But regrettably, since long ago until this moment I have no intention of harming you or your family. No intention to eliminate you.”
“Not emotions, but that's the real voice of your heart. This time I'm gonna take my family really away from you, Alden. I really hate you !”
“Belle, I know that your heart is full of kindness and sincerity, never holding a grudge even if I have hurt you for years. Forgive me for what hurt you so much that it makes you harden your heart like this. I won't stop apologizing until your heart returns to forgive me, Belle.”
“I don't need your sympathy and apologies. I really hate you Alden ! Don't ever show your face again in front of me.”
“Belle,” Alden restrained the arm of Annabelle who was about to leave her. “It may be too late to tell you, but from my deepest heart I truly regret my often outrageous deeds and attitudes.
I realized that all this time I had been denying my own feelings. I never hated you but I love you, love you so much, Belle.”
Annabelle jerked her hand until Alden's grip slipped off.
“Are your ears not normal until my words you can't hear ? I hate you, Alden ! I hate you so much!”
Annabelle started beating Alden's arm and then the man's chest. Alden didn't fight back and let Annabelle vent her emotions.
“Hit me as much as you can if it makes your heartache less.”
Plaque !
Annabelle was stunned with her hand that immediately slapped Alden's face. The man in front of her shook his head and kept smiling looking at Annabelle.
”Do not act as if you are the victim of my anger. I regret ever loving you and this time I will not make the same mistake,” stressed Belle full of emphasis.
“And I won't stop loving you, Annabelle. I really love you,” Alden said with a smile.
“Stop talking about love!” Annabelle pushes Alden's body away and accidentally hits Alden's stomach.
“Belle,” Alden grimaced while holding Annabelle's shoulder.
“Do not think I can be eaten with your password !” Annabelle laughed cynically.
Alden did not answer, his hand held the stomach and pulled over, sitting on a nearby bench.
Seen several times Alden sighed, trying to reduce his pain, while Annabelle shook her head and looked at Alden with a flat face.
Alden's forehead was a little sweaty. After the pain gradually disappeared, Alden smiled seeing Annabelle still standing looking at him even without any expression.
“Hopefully Om Rano can quickly wake up, Belle. I'll take my leave first. Sorry for upsetting your heart.”
Alden got up and slowly left Annabelle for the elevator. Annabelle herself turned around and walked towards the ICU room with her heart still burning with emotion.
****
The driver who picked up Alden was waiting in the hospital lobby. Not the house that is the destination but the office of Hutama Group.
At first the driver wanted to refuse because Mommy Lanny had told him to immediately bring Alden home, but Alden confirmed to go to the office first.
30 Minutes Alden closed his eyes while leaning on the rear passenger seat. The shadow of Annabelle who looked at him full of hate, made Alden's heart feel pain.
“Elo why are you here, Bro ?” Raka immediately got up from her chair and approached Alden who was walking a little stiffly.
“Kangen sama elo and Tami, because it is too busy working together to forget about his own boss,”
sahut Alden while laughing, but not for long he held his stomach that was a little sore because of the shock of his body when laughing.
“Haiiss kan elo himself who does not love office people on besuk,” protest Raka who is embraced by Tami. Alden laughed again and this time it was slower.
“Bikin shy of being swiped by an employee at the office just because of a knife slash.”
“Continue now why come here ? Elo's face was still pale, instead of going straight home. I'd like to pick up elo.”
Raka followed Alden who entered her room.
“Kelama I stay together with Tami yes or already metirikan elo girlfriend who was brought up, why now elo talk has no end like mother-mom?” ledek Alden sitting in his chair.
“Two, Bro.” Raka laughed as she pulled the chair facing Alden and was ready with her tab.
“How are the rioters in the project?” alden asked as he leaned back in the chair.
“It has been handed over to the following police with evidence of CCTV footage that was there. Looks like everything is set, found there are some cameras that were deliberately damaged.”
“Please complete, especially the one that attacked Om Rano and made many people injured. Wounded citizens also please take care until healed.”
“Om Juan has helped take care of everything. How's Luka elo, Bro ?”
“Still a little sick, but no more infections so I was given home.”
“Thank God. But elo cheek why kayak blisters ?”
Raka frowned when she saw Alden smiling while taking his phone.
“Bro, elo is still sane, right ? Did the wound in your stomach make your brain infected too?”
Raka frowned when she saw Alden smiling while looking at his phone.
Intrigued by what Alden saw, Raka got up from his seat, approached Alden and immediately chuckled as soon as he saw a photo of Annabelle plastered on his boss' phone screen.
“Yes Alden, elo again kasmaran ?” ledek Raka on the sidelines laughing.
“Gue has expressed love with Annabelle,” Alden said without stopping smiling.
“Serious ?” raka's eyes immediately widened. “So you two are officially dating?”
“Nih answer,” Alden pointed to his cheek that slightly blisters due to Annabelle's slap.
“Rejected ?” ledek Raka while chuckling. “So Annabelle is still rejecting elo?”
“Yes, but no problem. It feels so happy to be able to say love with Annabelle even though rejected.”
“Al, elo kayak High School kids anyway ?” Raka frowned. “Do not reach other employees on this elo squirm.”
“Why ?” Alden turned his head and looked at Raka with a confused face.
“No authority at all. Shame Om Wira aja.”
“Once in a while it's embarrassing because love is okay. Is it like this isn't it ? Happy if I do not go to the office and there is no afternoon meeting schedule,” Alden throttled.
“That's different, Alden. I'm the same Sisi fell in love with each other, if both of you work over it. Turn Annabelle love, elo angry, now when you say I love you, Annabelle answer I hate elo,” ledek Raka while laughing.
“No problem, this time I will try to make Belle fall back in love like first.”
“May you be a match, Bro,” Raka pat her best friend on the shoulder. “Should be ready too if not a mate, Bro. Want business how, you can not unite.”
“No good doain can ?” Alden glared at his assistant.
“Mendoakan at the same time give good advice for my bestie so as not to fall if not mate.”
“Geli use the term bestie,” Alden rubbed his shoulders while sneering makes Raka laugh.
