The Billionaire’s Surrogate Wife

Make a Deal (2)



“What are you doing, honey?”

Samuel was astonished. As soon as he came home and was about to sleep, he found Ariana’s attitude a little strange. The woman suddenly looked very spoiled.

Previously, where had Ariana hugged or kissed Samuel first? And tonight, for whatever reason, Ariana came to Samuel. Suddenly kissing for so long then hugging so tight like someone who’s afraid to lose.

“It’s okay. I just miss you,” said the woman while continuing to hug. “Since big trouble happened to us these few days, you rarely hug or kiss me as usual.”

Samuel smiled. He felt guilty because he had been so busy these days.

“I’m sorry,” Samuel whispered softly. Bringing her lips, then kissing Ariana’s forehead and the top of Ariana’s head alternately. “I promise, I won’t be busy alone after this.”

Ariana nodded. Slightly looked up, then leaned forward to reach Samuel’s lips. Back kissing the man for so long before finally deciding to sleep.

The next day, when she was about to leave for work, Ariana asked Samuel for permission to come to work a little late. He reasoned that he wanted to stop by the orphanage first because he wanted to meet Clara’s mother.

“You don’t want me to accompany you?”

Ariana shook her head. She knew her husband was in a rush this morning. Regarding yesterday’s problem, there are several things that Samuel must resolve with her lawyer.

“No need, honey. I can go alone,” Ariana refused. Which is where his words actually caught Samuel’s attention.

“What did you say just now? Honey?”

Samuel was certainly surprised. So far, she has often been pushy, even deliberately teasing and throwing bait, where has Ariana ever called her affectionately. It was only this morning that Samuel heard those sweet words slip lightly from Ariana’s lips.

“Yes, am I not allowed to call my own husband affectionately?”

“Sure,” Samuel said, nodding a few times. The smile on the man’s lips even looks so wide. “If you can, from now on just call her honey. Not Samuel.”

Ariana pursed her lips. Basically Samuel. Must be very happy to take advantage of the atmosphere.

“Yes, honey. That’s easy. All right, hurry up and go. You don’t need to bother taking everything with me. I can go alone. Besides, it’s only for a moment. I promise I’ll be at the office at lunch time.”

With a heavy heart Samuel went to work alone this morning. After believing that the car her husband was driving had left and could not even be seen, Ariana hurriedly ordered a taxi online. Ask the driver to immediately take him somewhere.

At first, Ariana was nervous. Because it was morning and the time when people went to work, he was stuck in traffic for a while. Luckily, it didn’t take too long and we finally got to the Cosmix hotel on time.

“Excuse me, can I meet Mr Hadipraja?” asked Ariana when she was in front of the reception desk.

“Have you made an appointment before?” asked the man on duty in front of Ariana.

“Yes,” he nodded. “I made an appointment yesterday afternoon on behalf of Ariana Grey.”

The receptionist immediately contacted someone from behind the intercom phone available on his desk. Confirmed for a few moments, before finally giving Ariana permission to enter.

“Ms. Ariana, please go straight to the Bengawan restaurant. The person you want to meet is waiting there.”

Ariana nodded. After receiving instructions and directions on where the restaurant in question was located, he immediately took his feet to go to the place in question.

Upon entering the restaurant, Ariana’s eyes immediately circulated. Trying so hard to find the figure of the man she really wanted to meet this morning. It wasn’t long before his eyes caught a middle-aged man in a navy suit looking engrossed in his breakfast.

“Excuse me, Mr. William Hadipraja. Good morning,” said Ariana respectfully and politely.

Since yesterday, Ariana has planned to meet with the leadership and owner of the Pakuwon Group. From various kinds of information obtained, Crazy Rich from Surabaya is currently in Jakarta to have a business meeting with several clients.

This caught Ariana’s attention. He thought it was better to meet William in person to discuss the current polemic, as well as personally apologize for the chaos that had arisen which might have been detrimental to both parties.

“Good morning, Mba Ariana. Please sit down,” William replied kindly. Then asked Ariana to immediately sit in the chair that was available in front of her.

“Before that, I apologize profusely for disturbing you, who is currently enjoying breakfast.”

William smiled. As a person who has been harmed by the skewed news and lies that Samuel and Ariana have done, this man still acts professionally. They even accepted Ariana’s presence and treated her very kindly as if nothing had happened between them.

“No problem. I’m not the least bit bothered. Mba Ariana has had breakfast herself? If not, we can chat while enjoying breakfast.”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Ariana shook her head. He politely declined William’s invitation to eat breakfast. Not unwilling. But, before leaving, he had had his fill of the food Samuel had prepared for him.

“Thank you for the offer, sir. I’ll just drink it.”

Then William called the maids and asked them to bring a cup of hot tea to give to Ariana. While eating the leftovers on his plate, the man tried to hear what Ariana wanted to tell him.

“So, I came here because I wanted to discuss the problem that occurred between Palma and Pakuwon. Once again, I want to apologize profusely for what my husband and I did to Pakuwon, especially Mr. William. We both know that what we what you did was wrong. I don’t deny that at all. However, as Mr. Samuel said at the press conference, in the end we both had a real marriage. Not pretending, let alone setting it up like at the beginning.”

William seemed to continue listening. Give as much time as possible for Ariana to discuss everything she wants to convey.

“In practice carrying out tasks and doing what has been charged …. ” Ariana continued. “Mr. Samuel and I also try our best to be professional and responsible. For that, we ask for Mr. William’s mercy by giving me an apology and one more opportunity for Mr. Samuel to atone for all the mistakes we have made.”

Ariana spoke at length. William himself seemed to be listening intently. Nodding, the man took a sip of the tea in his cup first. Rubbing her wet lips for a moment, then responding to Ariana’s words.

“Actually, from the first time we met at Mrs. Arabella’s birthday party, I was already very interested in Ms. Ariana’s personality. From the way she thinks, analyzes, and even how to solve problems, she looks very competent and out of the box from the others. Regarding this matter, of course I will.” I’m disappointed because you two have done something that is considered less than commendable just to realize your ambitions.”

Ariana took a deep breath. He knew full well that he and Samuel were wrong.

“Once again I’m really sorry, sir. I also know that an apology is not enough.”

“Of course. Sorry isn’t enough for the upheaval that has occurred these few days. I’m curious. If I forgive you two and still use Palma as a partner, is there any guarantee that this tender will be successful?”

As if getting a breath of fresh air, Ariana smiled and nodded repeatedly. He is confident in his ability to complete and make the tender he is handling run smoothly according to the initial plan he has presented.

“I, Samuel, and all of the Palma Team will try our best, sir. After all, with the current scandal, we don’t just have to lose. It is possible that the problems that are happening at the moment are used as a free promotion event so that people are even more curious about the products they offer. we’ll launch.”

William was even interested in the last sentence that Ariana had just said. How clever she was to think of every opportunity in the midst of the problems that were hitting her. As if brilliant ideas never run out of the woman’s brain.

Describing at length what was his pain and all kinds of offers that might help Palma’s position, Ariana ended her explanation. Now, just waiting for his turn, what kind of answer will William give him.

“Seeing how optimistic and confident Ms. Ariana is when giving an explanation, as a professional who has been in the business world for a long time, I will try to give Palma one chance. For that, please prove what you have promised.”

Ariana smiled broadly. In my heart give thanks many times. At least, his efforts to convince the Pakuwon party have found a solution. Now, it’s just waiting for the decision of the board of commissioners, what punishment will be given to Samuel and himself.

On the way to the Palma building, Ariana did not forget to contact someone. As soon as the call was connected, he immediately gave a report, what he had done.

“Hello, Ma. Ariana has done the first task. According to Mama’s challenge, Ariana managed to convince Pakuwon to give her a chance.”

“Good,” said the woman on the other end. “Well then, now you should get ready for your next task. Don’t forget to attend the big event tomorrow night as well.”

Before Arabella ended the call, Ariana had interrupted. Asked her mother-in-law not to close first.

“Wait a minute, Mom.”

“Especially?”

“Isn’t this too fast? Can’t Ariana add another day or two?”

“You can’t, Ariana. Just do what you’ve been told.”

That second Arabella also ended the conversation. Leaving Ariana with mixed feelings because she has to carry out a task which she thinks is very hard.
