When Paul learned that the two had returned, he urged them to go to the Hartanto family's house to discuss marriage as soon as possible.
In recent months, there has been a lot of movement within the Hartanto family.
In the first month after Chris and Merry left, he heard that the main family had somehow given up the three plots of land and the precision technology industry business chain.
Unexpectedly, all of this fell into Paul's hands.
Although the relationship between Jefferson and Paul was still not that good, the arrogance of the head of the Hartanto family had clearly weakened in the past few months.
If Paul didn't move, maybe he would forever be weak.
...
On the other hand, Tom left the Hiroshi House and was driving aimlessly. In no time, he came to the ground floor of Gaia's company.
He parked his car on the side of the road, looked at the building, and subconsciously took out his cell phone.
After three calls, the phone was picked up, and Vivi's weak voice came. "What's wrong?"
Recently, Tom was looking for her too much, which bothered her!
Tom heard Vivi's voice, looked at the phone, frowned and asked, "Why do you sound so annoyed? Did you just realize that you're a corporate slave?"
Vivi, who is working overtime. "..."
She took a deep breath and looked left and right. Her colleagues were still busy working late, so she took her phone and went to the pantry.
"I work late, I'm very busy."
Since financial reports are due at the end of the year, the data department must integrate the annual reports and submit them to the finance department for review.
She's been working overtime this month.
By this time, Tom had bent down and got out of the car, standing on the ground floor and looking up. "What time is it? And why are you still working overtime? You can die if you continue like this, you know?"
Vivi. "..."
If this wasn't the Wibowo family's young master talking to her, Vivi almost thought of cursing him out loud!
Vivi rubbed her forehead in pain, and muttered angrily, "What are you calling me for? If you've got nothing important to say, I'll hang up!"
"Something's wrong, hurry downstairs!"
"No, my work isn't done yet!" Vivi refused outright.
Then, Tom said, "Oh", and sneered casually. "Fine then, I'll go up!"
Vivi rolled her eyes at the ceiling. "No, I'll go down. You just wait downstairs!"
She really didn't want Tom to show up in her office area again.
She knew that all her coworkers at the company were talking about her behind her back. They say that she has used extreme means and succeeded in attracting the attention of Tom Wibowo.
In order to avoid this rumor from getting even more outrageous, Vivi wanted to avoid meeting Tom at the company.
...
In less than five minutes, she took the elevator to the lower floor.
As soon as she walked out of the lobby, she saw Tom leaning against his sports car smoking a cigarette and staring at the moon.
He's grown for heaven's sake, can't he pretend to be a little mature?!
Vivi twisted her lips in disgust, and walked to open the door and asked, "What are you doing here? What do you want?!"
Tom blew a puff of smoke into the night sky, and then his eyes fell on Vivi's face. "Are you free next month?"
Vivi was suspicious and asked, "What's that got to go with you?"
"If there's no problem, Chris and Merry's wedding should be next month!" Tom explained with a silly expression.
After hearing that voice, Vivi almost laughed furiously. "That's all? Can't you say it on the phone? Why did you tell me to come down?"
Hearing Vivi's question, Tom hesitated for a long time before speaking bluntly. "Of course I have more important things to say. Let's go to the coffee shop with me, let's have a talk!"
Vivi wanted to refuse, but her words were still stifled by her anger. Just as she was about to speak, Tom pulled the cloth of her arm and walked the next second.
By this time, it was already eight in the evening, and there were very few people in the cafe.
Tom took a seat by the window. After sitting down, he looked at Vivi's tired face. "Have you been so busy lately?"
Vivi glanced at him and rubbed her forehead. "Every year's end, the data department will conduct an audit. Doesn't your company also need such statistics every year?"
Tom had a gloomy face upon hearing this.
He was already in charge of his family's company, but more power was still in his father's hands.
Hearing Vivi's rhetorical question, Tom felt himself being insulted.
The waiter brought two cups of coffee. Vivi then took a sip and sighed. "What else do you want to talk about? Hurry up, my report isn't finished yet."
Seeing that Vivi was impatient, Tom furrowed his brows and looked at her. "Merry doesn't have many friends here, so why don't you be her bridesmaid?"
No!
Vivi subconsciously wanted to refuse, but she noticed that Tom looked serious, and she was embarrassed. "Are you kidding me?"
Previously, she was a bridesmaid for Lilia because of their friendship.
If she became a bridesmaid for Merry, she felt it was not suitable.
After all, she and Merry only knew each other, and their relationship was not close enough for her to be a bridesmaid.
At this time, Tom nodded solemnly, but his eyes were stained with nervousness. "Of course I'm serious. After all, you and Merry also know each other. She can't get married without the bridesmaids!"
Vivi was confused. "Huh?"
Why does this sound weird?!
But Tom's eyes had that kind of 'this is the final decision' aura that didn't even give Vivi a chance to refuse. After speaking, Tom stood up and left.
In the coffee shop, Vivi looked at his figure walking out of the cafe from the window. She almost dropped the coffee cup in her hand!
He really had the nerve to call her at night and force her to come down just to say all that?
If you're a real man, at least wait for me to finish my work!
Vivi glared atto Tom's back, finished the contents of her coffee cup, and returned to the company.
On the side of the road, Tom was sitting in the car, watching Vivi's figure coming out through the half lowered window.
He sighed, took out a cigarette case, and started smoking to lighten his mood.
The warm yellow light from the cafe was too warm, perhaps that's why he felt that Vivi was actually quite beautiful.
He's crazy indeed!
...
The next day, at eight in the morning, Chris and Merry appeared together at Gaia.
After several months of absence, when the two of them appeared, Chris faintly heard someone whispering behind him.
Gaia hasn't changed hands yet!
Chris. "..."
It just so happened that it was the end of the year, and Chris returned at a coincidental time.
Many jobs in the company's various lines of business required him to take charge.
From today, Chris was also integrated into his busy work again.
However, Merry had nothing to do. She would sometimes help Chris with some files, or run away to accompany Lilia.
In short, the little girl's life was very pleasant.. And sometimes in her spare time, she would pretend to go to Vivi but actually choose a dress for her wedding.
