BXBX NOVEL Chapter 513 - Meeting
This incident made Anya even more unwilling to have a relationship with the Atmajaya Family.
If Aiden was this bad, Anya wanted to escape even more.
She would try to be free from the work contract without breaking it. Where could she get the money to pay the penalty?
Early in the morning, Anya finally fell asleep exhausted.
Meanwhile, Aiden\'s car stopped not far from Diana\'s villa. He remained there until Anya\'s room lights were finally turned off.
…
Three days later, Anya got a call from Harris, asking her to return to Iris on Monday.
Anya gritted her teeth in fury. She was really annoyed with the Atmajaya family and also Harris. She just came back to Indonesia and felt jet lagged, but these people had sent her back to work.
"Harris, I want to rest for a bit. I have personal matters to take care of. I don\'t think I can go back to work for a while," Anya said as patiently as possible.
"Madam, if you wish to ask for leave, you must have Mr. Aiden\'s approval. If not, your salary will be reduced," Harris replied.
"Harris, I don\'t want to go back to Iris. Can I terminate my previous work contract?" Anya asked.
"If you want to terminate the contract, I will ask the company lawyer to contact you and go through the procedure. Because if it\'s Madame who wants to end the contract unilaterally, you have to pay a penalty fee," Harris spoke in his business manner.
"Why do I have to pay a penalty fee when I file a contract termination?" Anya was worried hearing that.
"We have the right to refuse your application for termination of the contract. So, if you don\'t want to come back, you have to pay a penalty according to the contract stated. In order to develop Madame\'s talent, Master has bought a Rose Scent from Iris and turned it into yours, Iris. The mall owned by Atmajaya Group always provides free advertising and promotions for Iris and the investment that Mr. Aiden has given you is incalculable. The contract clearly states that you have to pay three times the money that Atmajaya Group spends to train you," Harris said from the telephone.
Anya took a deep breath. She couldn\'t deny what Harris said.
"Harris, Aiden and I are not strangers. We used to be husband and wife. Can you ask him to reduce the penalty fee?" Anya tried to soften her voice.
"Madame, you already know you don\'t want to go back to work at Iris. If you insist on terminating your employment contract, you have to pay the triple fee stated in the contract. You only need to pay the training fee that Atmajaya Group has invested in you in the amount of 10 billion," Harris said seriously.
Anya stared at her cellphone in surprise. Was her phone\'s speaker damaged? Or did she hear wrong?
Harris was talking about 10 billion like he was talking about 100 thousand.
"What did you say just now? Sorry I didn\'t hear it clearly." Anya asked him again, hoping she had heard wrongly. This time she would listen carefully.
"Madame, you have to pay 10 billion," Harris repeated once again.
"10 billion? Why don\'t you just take all my money? You really like to cheat like this, right?" Anya felt so angry when she heard this.
10 billion. They really wanted to strangle her.
The work contract would expire in one year. They didn\'t give her a salary, but asked her to compensate for 10 billion. Why?
"Our lawyers calculate the estimated numbers, not me. If you have any objection, you can come to the office and I will arrange for you to meet with our lawyers and discuss it in person," Harris said.
"I want to meet Aiden," was all Anya could think of.
She didn\'t want to talk to a lawyer. How could she possibly win when she talked to a lawyer?
"When do you wish to meet with him? I need to make an appointment for it," Harris\' lips slightly showed a faint smile. Only halfway left to achieve his goal.
"The sooner the better. Look at Aiden\'s schedule, when can he see me?" Anya really wanted to slap herself. How many times had she been fooled by a contract like this?
How could she be so stupid!
What made her even more angry was Harris did it all!
First of all, Harris tricked her about her garden guarantee contract.
Now, Harris tricked her with a work contract.
She had fallen into the same hands, twice…
Anya already knew Harris\' ability in doing business, but in the past, she felt that Harris was on her side so she wasn\'t aware of it.
Now, it\'s too late to regret everything.
She didn\'t know if she could meet Aiden today. Harris already told her to go back to work. If she didn\'t show up on Monday, she would immediately be considered to have violated the contract.
"Madame, Mr. Aiden can see you from 12 to 1 in the afternoon," Harris said.
Anya looked at the clock. "Okay, it\'s still 11 now. I\'ll get on the bus there."
"Madame, there\'s no need. I will have one of the bodyguards to pick you up. It so happened that my mother sent something to the office,"
"Fine then," Anya answered.
For the past few days, Anya had only lived in her mother\'s house in the garden and had not come out yet.
It had been two years since she returned to Indonesia and she didn\'t know what changes had happened to this city. She wanted to have a look.
Aiden was indeed picky about food, so he asked for food delivery from his house. Why didn\'t she take this opportunity to get a ride?
Twenty minutes later, Anya came out of her house and saw Aiden\'s car.
"Madame, assistant Harris asked me to pick you up," the guard opened the door for Anya politely.
"I am not your master\'s wife anymore. Just call me Anya," Anya got into the car, smiling faintly.
"Master will not allow me," the guard insisted.
When she heard this, Anya felt a sour nose. Aiden didn\'t let everyone working for him change how they should address her.
What for?
The bodyguard drove fast and steady, while Anya leaned her head against the window. She looked out at the familiar scene outside the window, but somehow she felt something deep inside.
Two years away, she saw that many things had changed in this city.
Had Aiden changed too?
12 at noon, the car stopped in front of the Atmajaya Group\'s entrance.
Aiden\'s bodyguard descended, carrying two packages in both hands. Anya looked at him without saying anything. Did Aiden eat that much alone?
"Do you need help?" Anya asked.
"Please press the button for the elevator, madam," the guard said with an embarrassed smile.
"Oh!" Anya followed the bodyguard and entered the CEO-only elevator. She entered the elevator in surprise. Could Aiden\'s bodyguard get through too? Wasn\'t this the special elevator for Aiden, Harris and Nico?
DING!
The elevator stopped at the top floor.
Not much haD changed from Aiden\'s office. It\'s just that, the secretary\'s desk in front of the door, the one she had chosen, no longer existed…
Actually, Aiden didn\'t need a special secretary. But he wanted Anya to always be near him.
Aiden always spoiled her, but now…
Anya was wearing a thick white sweater and her hair was tied in one ponytail. She also wore jeans and white shoes.
In his office, Aiden could clearly see the situation outside his room.
When he saw Anya, the man unconsciously held his breath...
