Episode 4

Being assigned a task she couldn't refuse forced Aura to go through with it. At the same time, it was her first experience going abroad. Whether it was a blessing or a disaster, Aura, who was honing her skills at work, felt this was a challenge for her.

At seven in the evening, Aura went down to the lobby while pulling her suitcase. As she walked out of the elevator, she saw a luxurious black car with a man standing by the door she recognized.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Beni, I thought you hadn't arrived yet," Aura felt bad when she saw Beni, the big boss's assistant at the office.

"Not at all, Miss, I just arrived too," Beni replied with a friendly smile. 'If only you knew that Mr. Haikal has been waiting for you since earlier,' Beni could only say in his heart before opening the door for Aura.

Ehh

Aura was quite surprised to see a handsome man with a mature age, yet his face surpassed those of young men.

"Mr. Haikal..." Aura greeted with a stiff smile.

She didn't expect her big boss to be sitting calmly inside the car.

"Get in!" Haikal ordered with a straight face.

Aura glanced at Beni as if asking for approval, and Beni simply nodded to give his consent.

Beni went around to the front of the car to sit behind the wheel. He would be the one driving his boss and his business partner to the airport.

Inside the car, specifically in the back seat, Aura sat by the door. She kept a safe distance from her boss, who was also her boyfriend's father.

Haikal, who glanced at her from the corner of his eye, could only smile inwardly. Aura was like a cat afraid of a predator around her.

"Sit properly, if you stick to the door, I'm afraid you'll suddenly fall and I won't know what to say to Mario,"

Haikal's words made Aura swallow hard. Even though he spoke at length, the mature man's face didn't look at her at all.

"Emm," Aura only mumbled and shifted to the middle a little, creating a distance between the door and her body.

'I never imagined this kind of situation, if only I had known him for a long time, maybe I wouldn't be so nervous,' Aura thought while biting her own lip.

Soon the car driven by Beni arrived at the city airport. They both got out after Beni opened the car door.

"There's still twenty minutes, how about we go to that cafe first," Haikal pointed to a cafe that was still inside the airport building.

"Um, alright Sir," Aura, who was a subordinate, shouldn't refuse the invitation of her superior, even though in her heart she wanted to refuse because she was uncomfortable with her awkwardness.

Haikal ordered coffee, as did Aura. They both sat on a bench near the window where they could see the arrival of passengers.

"No need to be awkward Aura, we will meet and interact often,"

Aura, who was sipping her coffee, paused for a moment before raising her head and smiling friendly.

"No matter what, you are still my boss, sir, I just don't want to overstep the boundaries," Aura said, feeling her answer was quite efficient.

Even though she was the lover of the son of the man sitting in front of her, Aura also saw Haikal's other side as her superior.

Haikal smiled faintly, "Mario is so lucky to have a good woman like you,"

As they both sat and talked a little about the work they would be doing, Aura's eyes suddenly burned when she saw a couple laughing together while holding hands. They weren't even ashamed when they occasionally threw kisses in public.

"So you just need to explain how the cooperation with-" Haikal raised one eyebrow when he saw Aura's tense face with a red gaze.

Haikal's head turned back where there was a glass wall that could see the activities of the people there.

Haikal narrowed his eyes when he saw a figure he knew very well laughing happily while holding a woman's hand. Seeing that, the corner of Haikal's lips twitched slightly.

"It's not possible,"

Aura clenched both her hands under the table, the veins in her neck were visible as she suddenly became emotional.

"Your tears are too precious to cry over those who don't deserve to be cried over,"

Aura's sharp gaze that held anger with a sense of pain in her heart made her look at Haikal who was sipping his coffee.

"Your heartache won't make them sad, you see that woman," Haikal pointed to the woman walking with Mario through his gaze.

"She is so proud of making someone else's girlfriend her man,"

Aura's eyes were already watering, no matter what, Mario was her boyfriend who had been with her for two years, they had spent many days together in pleasure, but today Aura got a bitter reality when she was cheated on, even by her own best friend.

"You are a smart woman Aura, if you want to get back at them, I'm willing to be part of your revenge!"

Aura looked at Haikal's face with a meaningful look.

Arriving at the hotel, Aura immediately rested, throughout the trip on the plane she was mostly silent while studying the cooperation file with the AIX company. Aura did that just to distract her mind from the incident at the airport earlier.

Even though she didn't want to wallow in sadness because she was cheated on, Aura's heart felt pain. Mario, who she thought was a good man as her final harbor, but who would have thought that the man would actually give a bad experience by cheating.

Aura stared at the ceiling of her room with tears, since earlier she couldn't express her sadness in front of Haikal.

"Mario.. Lisa, you will regret what you have done behind my back," Aura said with determination.

"If you think I'm just going to keep quiet, that won't happen," Aura smiled cynically even though her eyes were filled with tears.

"Throwing away anchovies won't make me starve if I can get bigger fish." Aura grinned even wider when she remembered Haikal Ramses.

"You can use me to avenge your heartache, I'm sure they will regret making you heartbroken," Haikal said when they were still sitting in the cafe earlier.

Aura was going to do something that might be very risky for her. Right now, she might be like a stupid woman who is easily fooled.

"So the boyfriend you meant all this time is Mario," Aura could only close her eyes, not expecting that her own best friend was a thorn in her love affair, "You even want to have a rich boyfriend like Mario and be well received by his family, if that's your wish, I will make it happen for you Lisa." Aura's determination was full of hatred.

No matter how good someone is, there will be a point where their goodness is in vain after seeing how their goodness is so worthless for the wrong person. For two years, Aura tried to be the best for the man she loved, but who would have thought that her kindness would be repaid with an affair that broke her heart.

"We'll see, if you really want anything I have," Aura muttered while grinning, not forgetting to wipe away her tears, "Revenge begins!"
