Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything

Not long after, Lisa accompanied Vira to sit on the sofa in the living room and looked at the woman in disbelief. Today, she was tired enough to tell everything to Vira.

"Lie to you? What the hell are you talking about?" Lisa replied simply.

Vira corrected her sitting position and looked at Lisa from the top of her head to her toes.

The woman's hair was still messy, her lips looked bruised and slightly wet, not to mention her clothes which didn't look neat anymore. Lisa and Oscar must've had a big enough fight that she looked like a mess!

At first, Vira wanted to tease Lisa and ask further, but when she heard the woman's sigh, she became reluctant.. Lisa must be tired and want to rest soon.

"Okay, okay, it's up to you." Vira got up from the sofa, "Hurry up and sleep. It's late, you still have to work tomorrow, right?"

Lisa cleared her throat, "It's over. You go in first."

When Vira had entered the room and left Lisa alone, time passed slowly. Seconds are replaced by minutes and finally minutes are replaced by hours.

Nobody knew why, but Lisa suddenly woke up from her sleep because her neck felt stiff.

"Why did I fall asleep here..." Lisa grumbled while stroking the back of her neck.

With a stiff neck and an uncomfortable body, she got up from the sofa and walked to her room.

That night, unlike before, Lisa could hear pop music coming from Vira's room. She closed her eyes and could hear Vira's small hum.

The next morning, when Lisa arrived at the office, the woman knew that today was one of the many tough days she had had. Her desk was filled with important files that Maria hadn't finished.

A few days ago, Maria had told her that the Better Life company would cooperate with the company where Robert worked. Eventually, the plan was put on hold for several weeks.

This morning, when Lisa entered the finance division, she received news that the plan to cooperate with the Bright Light company would continue. Her mood instantly changed drastically. The woman was happy because she was finally able to have breakfast with Vira at a fast food restaurant after a long time, but now, that feeling of happiness was replaced by a feeling of panic.

Even though Lisa knew very well that Robert and Maria were no longer in the plan to work together, she still felt panicked. What if Robert's successor was the same type of man as him?

But Lisa had no other choice, she had to continue the plan to cooperate. How could the company understand that and cancel the plan just because of her problem with one of the workers at the Bright Light company? Even though she is now a manager in the finance division, she has no right to cancel the company's big plan.

Around 10 am, Lisa was contacted by a personal assistant who would later replace Robert. The woman told her that Lisa was invited to the Bumi Hijau hotel this afternoon at 6. Without thinking, Lisa immediately agreed to the invitation.

Since Lisa was a manager in the division and so she became an important person, she couldn't help but have to come that afternoon.

After she agreed to the invitation, Lisa returned to work. She carefully re-examined her proposals, plans, and everything she would bring later. She didn't want to create problems in her first project as a manager.

Lisa is confident of her good work. It's just that she's had too many problems at work, whether it's because of Maria or the previous problems that were related to her because of Surya, so that she becomes insecure about her performance.

Since Lisa was chosen to be the manager in the finance division, she has become even more thorough in her work. She wouldn't let Indri or the company leaders regret their choice.

Around 4 pm, Lisa ended her work. This afternoon, she deliberately invited Aaron and Cicilia to go meet the representative from the Bright Light company together.

"I mean, uh... are you sure you want to take me to this meeting?" Cicilia asked in disbelief.

Even though Lisa was already a manager in the finance division, technically Cicilia's boss, the two women remained close. Sometimes they eat together or go home together.

Lisa sighed, "Just come along. At least there are employees from our company who can be eyewitnesses."

"Oh my gosh, what kind of collaboration is this? Why do you need eyewitnesses? But it's okay, I can come later at 6. Besides, I'm free at the moment."

Exactly at half past five in the afternoon, the three of them were seen coming out of the office building. They used the company's car to take them to the Bumi Hijau hotel.

As the name implies, Bumi Hijau hotel carries a theme that is almost like a forest and is thick with a green atmosphere. Since it is a 5-star hotel, there are several tall and sturdy guards holding the leash of a guard dog in front of the entrance

Better Life company is one of the big insurance companies, so several people present under the name of the Bright Light company treated Lisa well.

About 4 or 5 people who came, knew what Robert did to Lisa. Until now, the hot news has not subsided in their office. But they still don't know the details about Lisa and Robert's problems.

They could have asked Lisa bluntly, the woman was already sitting across from them. But none of them dared to ask. They wouldn't want Lisa to cancel their cooperation just because she got offended by the question.

Exactly at 6 pm, the door to the dining hall that the Bright Light company had rented was opened from the outside. Not long after, the figure of a well-built man wearing a suit and pants of an expensive brand entered.

The man was wearing quite thick glasses, his hair was neatly styled back, and his briefcase was carried by a woman who seemed to be his personal assistant.

"Good afternoon, Miss Lisa," the man said in a rather unsure tone. "I'm Hendery Gunawan, Mr. Robert's replacement. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

Lisa got up from the chair and shook Hendery's hand, "Nice to meet you. Hopefully, we can work well together in the future."
