BXBX NOVEL Chapter 301 - There Won't Be That Day
"Sir, were you the one who made the Pratama Family company stock price drop so much?" Harris asked.
Aiden raised his eyebrows as he looked at Harris. "Keara is looking for death herself. Of course I\'m willing to help her!"
Harris didn\'t expect Aiden to move this fast.
Last night, the Atmajaya Group\'s public relations department just released a photo of Aiden and Anya having dinner to refute the rumors circulating on the internet.
However, Aiden didn\'t wait until morning. He didn\'t sleep all night to make the Pratama Family company\'s shares freefall like this.
That\'s why Anya didn\'t find Aiden in their bedroom last night…
Galih just found out that his company\'s shares dropped abnormally drastic this morning. It was too late…
That\'s why Aiden was sure Galih would come today.
"Sir, what if Miss Keara comes alone?" Harris asked.
"Let Nico meet her. I just wanted to meet Galih," Aiden replied coldly.
At ten in the morning, Keara arrived at the Atmajaya Group company. Harris immediately went down to meet her.
"Miss, sorry. Mr Aiden is busy. He doesn\'t have time to see you," Harris said without showing any expression. He had been trained to look heartless.
Keara frowned when she found out that Aiden didn\'t want to see her.
The shares of her family\'s company had plummeted and someone mysteriously bought them in large quantities. Previously, the Pratama Family only suspected that all of these incidents had something to do with Aiden. But now they believed that this was indeed Aiden\'s doing.
"I have to meet him," Keara didn\'t forget her purpose in coming to this place.
Harris answered politely, "Mr Aiden was working late last night. Now he is resting and can\'t see anyone."
Hearing Harris\'s words, Keara\'s face became more furious. "Ah! I knew it!"
Harris still faced Keara politely and said coldly, "Mr. Nico is waiting for you in the meeting room."
"What exactly is Aiden\'s plan?" Keara asked in a low voice.
"An assistant like me won\'t be able to understand what he is up to," Harris said dryly.
"Doesn\'t he really want to see me?" Keara\'s eyes seemed to be filled with various mixed emotions. Anger, sadness, resentment, reluctance, jealousy, confusion, and many more…
What made her feel sad was that Aiden didn\'t want to see her and instead told Nico to face her.
Nico stood in the doorway of the meeting room and looked coldly at Keara. "Keara, my uncle doesn\'t intend to look back on your past relationship. What\'s the point of you talking about the past? If you tell me where Nadine is, maybe we will make some concessions on your family,"
"I have told everything I know to you. There\'s no point in forcing me!" Keara refused to speak.
"Miss Keara, please come in!" Harris still drove Keara politely, but his face looked cold.
Keara still had shame. She didn\'t want to make a fuss in a doorway like this. She stepped into the meeting room and didn\'t continue her argument with Nico.
"Nico, I am your second uncle\'s fiancée. How dare you call me by my name? Is this the teaching of the Atmajaya Family?" Keara entered the meeting room arrogantly and immediately scolded Nico like an old granny.
Nico looked at her lazily. He sat on one of the chairs, leaned back in a relaxed manner, not showing Keara any respect at all.
"Keara, there\'s no need to act tough here. If you want to be my aunt, it depends on whether you qualify or not," Nico said coldly.
Keara would never marry Ivan.
She deliberately hid Nadine\'s whereabouts and did not want to tell the Atmajaya family. Why be polite to her?
Keara tried to swallow her anger and said, "Nico, I know you\'re worried about Nadine. If I had known, I would have told you. There\'s no point forcing me because I really don\'t know anything,"
"No one forced you. Even if you don\'t say it, we can still find out the truth. It\'s only a matter of time," Nico replied with a smile. "Your acting skills are great. You can fool a lot of people. But if my uncle can be fooled by you, he won\'t be able to get his current position. I want to remind you that my uncle intends to acquire your family company. You\'re running out of time,"
"What!?" Keara\'s eyes glared sharply. Shock flashed from her eyes. "Has he gone mad?"
"Not really. There is nothing wrong with acquiring a Pratama Family company for long-term investment. We have no intention of continuing your spice business, but we can use your land, level it and build new buildings," Nico said with a happy smile.
Keara gripped her bag tightly. Her hands were shaking. "I really don\'t know where Nadine is. I don\'t know!"
"You think we forced you. You think we\'re crazy about buying your family\'s company. But as long as my uncle wants to do it, he will definitely succeed!" Nico replied.
"Did he do it because of the scandal on the internet?" Keara asked.
"Hmm...Maybe," Nico said, shrugging his shoulders. "Maybe he did it because you did something that pissed him off. Our company had no intention of acquiring your family\'s company before this, so..." Nico continued on purpose.
"My family\'s company is not a small company that you can just swallow. Last night\'s incident had nothing to do with me and your company\'s public relations department has denied the rumors. I hope this problem can be resolved here and not damage the relationship between the two families," Keara said.
"That\'s what you want. But I don\'t want it," Nico said lazily. "Nadine… I don\'t like that girl. But after all, my father\'s blood was flowing through her body. It is impossible for you to stop all of this. By the way, my uncle wants two of your family\'s plantation lands." After saying that, Nico grinned broadly at Keara.
That grin could make anyone angry.
Nico was too lazy to face Keara. He knew his uncle didn\'t want to meet Keara and sent him to make Keara angry.
He deliberately provoked Keara so that Galih came to their office.
"Our company works in the spices sector. The two plantations you want are on a very large scale and we won\'t be able to give them to you," Keara said.
"My aunt promised to give her garden to our family. If you really want to marry my uncle, you also have to sacrifice something. After all, your plantation isn\'t anything special and doesn\'t have a big impact. The plantation was not as strategic as my aunt\'s," Nico added.
"You…" Keara\'s face became more and more creepy. She took a deep breath. "I can\'t give the plantation. After all, I don\'t need to marry your uncle,"
A cruel smile appeared on Nico\'s face after hearing that. "Then, please get out of this place."
If only Keara could meet Aiden, things wouldn\'t be like this.
But Aiden refused to meet her. He told Nico to handle her, while Nico did not care about her.
"Nico, our family plantation is very large and is not located in a strategic place. There\'s no point in you getting it. Why do you have to do all this? I\'ll help you find out where Nadine is. If I found out, I would have told you right away," Keara tried to soften her tone.
Nico raised his eyebrows arrogantly and said, "My aunt has given up her garden. The flowers and plants in her garden now had no place to grow. Your plantation land seems very suitable for her,"
"Nico, you know for yourself that Anya is just my replacement. What\'s the use of you helping her now? One day, when I come back together with your uncle, do you think I will forgive you?" Keara said angrily. She could not hold herself.
She had tried to be gentler and more patient in dealing with Nico, but Nico didn\'t heed her efforts at all.
"There won\'t be that day!" At that moment, the door to the meeting room suddenly opened from the outside.
