At Sofia’s residence.

Sofia was busy waiting impatiently and calmly to hear from Dirga. After Sofia had asked him to give any news as soon as he could. Dirga seemed to need some time until he could contact Sofia.

Dirga’s name finally appeared on Sofia’s cellphone screen. She hastily answered it.

“Dirga? What’s the situation? Is it safe? Cleo doesn’t suspect?”

Dirga’s clear voice was heard.

“Sorry to be a little late, Ma’am. I have already escorted Mr. Oscar to Mr. Harry’s house. And I have saw him being greeted by Mrs. Cleo. She also looks very happy and touched.”

Seeing the good and harmonious relationship between Cleo and Harry, Dirga should indeed feel happy. But remembering Harry who was still lying on the hospital bed and struggling. Dirga can not get rid of the feeling of sadness.

Dirga also cannot convey how much he really opposes this decision. Some may be amused by Harry’s presence having been replaced by someone else.

“But on the other hand, there are bound to be some parties who will be disappointed if they find out the truth.”

Sofia expected more explanation.

“You haven’t answered my question properly, Dirga. I’m asking you! How did the day react to the appearance of Oscar? Is she really not able to tell them apart?”

Dirga still nodded even though Sofia didn’t see it.

“Whole of the secrets are still safe, Madam. Mrs. Cleo doesn’t seem to have noticed yet.”

Sofia still showed her curiosity.

“How can you be so sure? Even though you weren’t with them. You only took him. You didn’t join with them. Or, are you also coming along with him as a guest?”

“No, madam. I have my own way of knowing and monitoring them.”

Dirga recalled what he had done to hear Oscar’s conversation carefully.

***

You may knock on the door after you have confirmed that you have these bluetooth earphones in your ears.

By this way, I can monitor your conversations. And if there are confusing questions, I can help you to give direct answers.

Oscar took the small earphone that Dirga gave him. This was not a bad way. Oscar thought he might just need it.

Dirga’s angry voice was heard clearly when Oscar had just set foot in Harry’s house and asked for something impossible.

“Just give me a cold drink. I’m getting hot and need something fresh.”

Dirga wanted to hit any hard object near him. He frowned and gently massaged the bridge of his nose.

“Are you kidding me? What are you just said?! You asked for cold water to freshen up your throat?!”

This scream may not be heard by Cleo. But the loud sound seemed to be quite deafening.

Oscar subconsciously pressed his ears. He took off his earphones stealthily.

Cleo looked at that gesture with a surprised look. Oscar distracted Cleo with something else. After he laid out the logical reasons for Cleo.

Cleo seemed to accept Oscar’s whole excuse.

They chatted for quite a while. Even though Dirga repeatedly asked Oscar not to talk too much. Everything sounded smooth without having to go through serious problems.

Sofia looked relieved.

“I’m glad that everything is fine. But how good the current situation. You still have to ask him to be careful. Because we don’t know what Cleo is thinking. Oscar also can’t expect that he will face Cleo alone.”

Dirga nodded in agreement.

“Sure, ma’am. I will continue to monitor his movements. I also won’t be let Mr. Oscar make a small mistake. I also believe that he is a smart and adaptable man.”

Sofia suddenly felt weak, disappointed and sad.

“I never expected or thought that I would take this action to extent like this. I realized that I was guilty. I realized that I shouldn’t have done this. But I did it for my family. For the sake of my grandson who is still lying in a coma. For the sake of my daughter-in-law who is pregnant. And for the sake of the child in her womb. I also do this for the sake of the company. And the future of my family.”

Dirga heard those words by a heavy heart. He realized that Sofia needed guts and a big heart to do all this for the good of everyone.

Dirga agreed that or not, he has to support Sofia’s hopes.

“I will support you, ma’am. And just believe me. You still have a lot of people who care about you and your family. So don’t be discouraged.”

Sofia suddenly sobbed.

She missed her first grandson. She also wanted their sorrow to end here. Sofia reaffirmed her resolve.

“Take some people to monitor Adhitya’s movements. I’m afraid he’s going to throw a tantrum or making trouble.”

She had felt his throat constrict.

“It’s too late, Ma’am. He had just invited several directors to hold an impromptu meeting. They will gather tomorrow. They’ve also asked Mr Harry to attend.”

Sofia frowned very seriously.

“What? He deliberately held a meeting without discussing it with me at first? Even though we just met a few days ago?”

Dirga could not follow Sofia’s emotions. He also disapproved of Adhitya’s actions. But that man’s action at this time was right. After Harry’s absence for over a month. Harry had never done this before.

Harry is a workaholic man. To him, spend a lot of time to work is better than anything. Even after getting married and several events happening around him. Harry never missed the details of the reports and documents he needed to supervise and approve despite having to do that work remotely.

Harry hardly ever delegated work to other people. He didn’t ever asked Sofia to change his job in temporarily. Not also leaving the office without information and confusing news.

Some of the directors who heard of that oddity would definitely use this moment to make things difficult for him. For one purpose, they has also willing to turn this situation into a big problem.

Sofia had no power to refuse or forbid that matter.

Sofia finally gave up.

“Let them to do what they want to. Then let’s us to do what we want to.”

The two of them made a deal.

***

While, anxiety about company affairs and uncomfortable rumors reached Daniawan, Lily and Christina’s ears. They couldn’t help but know that some people were starting to find fault on Harry.

Those who want to bring down Harry’s status are also willing to use this opportunity to dethrone Harry. This problem has been happening since a few weeks ago. They just close their eyes. After thinking that issue was not getting worse and distorted.

Daniawan was facing another case in the another Theodore’s subsidiaries. He didn’t have much time to worry about his nephew. But he had heard at first that his mother had taken action and replaced Harry’s job in the office.

He completely trusted his mother.

Sofia had worked for decades. She must have been able to read the situation, analyze it, and come up with a solution. Lily and Christina didn’t seem to agree.

Especially after Christina heard by herself how her friends talked about the figure of Harry they had always admired.
