Stealing The Wife's First Kiss Chapter 45
Advertisement
It turned out that Damar took her to the waiting room for the guest star talk show.
"Hi .. what's wrong with you?" Damar asked Aruna to sit on his chair.
The chair on wheels looked more comfortable than others.
Aruna just followed him without thinking too much. Her mind was drifting out of control.
Only her body was here.
"Look at that .. look at your face .. where is your soul, Aruna."
Aruna looked at the mirror that Damar pointed at. Ah, she found herself empty.
"I'm just not feeling well .. don't mind it....I just need rest." Aruna was hiding her problem tightly.
"Did you get scolded by your family last night?"
'Was it because she came home too late?' Damar thought.
"Ah, no. It's nothing. I can handle it."
"What can't you overcome then?" Damar seemed to understand that this was not about 'not feeling well', but there must be something else that made her gloomy.
The girl smiled, glanced at Damar, not willing to answer.
"You're always like this, when will you stop considering me as someone else?" He protested. The man lowered his head, looking closer at Aruna.
"Remember my words, no matter how bad you go through, I'm always by your side. You can come to me anytime." The young man grabbed Aruna's fingers, touching them gently.
Aruna nodded. To be honest, this girl didn't really hear Damar's words. She was too busy with her own thoughts.
"Knock ... knock ... knock ...." The sound of knocking on the door broke the communication between the two young people.
A woman wearing a television show uniform with the words written on it 'Nara & tv' asked Damar to follow her.
Damar disappeared behind the door, followed by the phone's ringing from Aruna's friends, asking Aruna to come immediately among them.

Someone was tapping his finger on the handle of the chair where he was sitting.
Hendra kept glancing at the clock, hoping to get the latest information from the one who was explicitly sent to meet Lesmana.
Aruna's obedience to her father was easily recognized and used as a force to bring the girl to him this afternoon.
The live press conference was held by one of the infotainment programs, Nara & tv, a subsidiary of the Wenceslas Group.
It was nearly 90% ready, and 10% of the female lead, the main star on this show.
"Ah I can't stand it .. I'll meet him myself." Hendra got up from his seat.
The latest information conveyed by the person he sent earlier said that it was almost impossible to meet Lesmana now.
Lesmana was in a meeting. The Wenceslas delivery company regulations didn't accept foreign guests who have not made an appointment with him.
It was impossible to meet him, disrupting an ongoing meeting.
Hendra walked swiftly, followed by his secretary Surya, bodyguards, as well as a team of personal branding consultants, and two others.
For general people, personal branding was something that didn't fall into a meaningful category.
However, for someone interested in politics, business, public figures, and leaders such as CEOs, regional leaders, etc, personal branding was something more than necessary.
They must be able to leave impressive and deep self-promotion every time they interact with subordinates, partners, and customers. They can get maximum attention.
Hendra was aware of this more than anyone.
He needed to save his image before saving his career. It was the same thing his grandfather was wanting.
"Wait?!!" Hendra paused for a moment, looking at the large screen installed in his family's television station's main lobby.
The screen showed live Nara & tv broadcasts.

"Where does the broadcast take place?" Hendra walked nimbly and half-running.
He then opened some of the studio doors. One of the employees of Nara & tv mentioned that the talk show program was in studio 4.
"Brakk." The sound of the door opening loudly disrupted the activities inside.
The tv crew who had immediately turned away and stayed focused as what the producer rankings of the show ordered.
It's a live show so that anyone who came here shouldn't break their concentration.
Some of the crew had whispered why the CEO of Wenceslas Group only seemed occasionally interested in entering their program's shooting room.
The crew didn't realize the CEO's strong magnetism had become an attraction on their talk show stage.
Yes .. Aruna sat among her friends, answering random questions from the host.
Hendra walked and sat in the front seat. His eyes couldn't be distracted, staring intently at his contract girl.
He leaned back, relaxed with his folded hands as he was waiting on how much that girl can endure.
She only had two choices. Either staying there with her friends or choosing to go down and settle things with him.
Hendra knew that Aruna neither could stand the whispers of the people around her nor his blue eyes.

The Madec Legacy
The dawn of Emotion Based A.I.s is here, John is the fifth test subject to have an AI implemented in his brain, and so far the first one to survive. Blinded by the dream of immortality, the researchers push the tests to inhumane standards. John is obligated to take part in sessions of torture designed to test the limits of the AI influence over the physical and mental health. What was supposed to be a new beginning in life turns into living hell. An (un)lucky twist ends his life. John then reincarnates with his AI in a new world where a System influences the interaction between Magic and Matter. With seemingly limitless potential and a game-like system influencing the world, the hero sets on his journey. --AUTHOR NOTE, PLEASE READ-- I will state here my promises to you, potential reader: 1. No harem! I don't trust myself to make a harem feel natural or healthy, I never met any person who has a personality that can adapt and live in a harem for reasons that are not monetary, so I can't draw inspiration from real life. Sorry!; 2. The enemies will not be bland and illogically mean. Some may feel like that at first, but I will take great care in fleshing them out, trust me. You may end up hating some, but you won't be able to deny that they had their reasons for what they did; 3. I am using a paid (and expensive) automated editor tool, and I take longer to write because I take my time in editing the stuff. I am aiming to improve and I will not shy away from constructive criticism, nor take offense for no reason; 4. Characters will die and will suffer, some will get over the tragedies and improve, others will not be as resilient. 5. This novel has a lot of ground to cover, it is neither a short story, a manual on crafting, or the script of some action scene. There will be both time skips and oversimplifications of some actions for the sake of moving the story forward. Time skips will be more prominent in the first 30 chapters. I will describe crafting processes and fights with more detail if they are essential for the chapter; 6. If I took my time describing something, it's because it is important. I hate novels that waste time describing useless stuff. If you skim over something, the chances are that something in the future will not make sense. I am an adept of "Chekhov's gun" principle; 7. I already have 31k words on my auxiliary documents, I have a plan for the story, and I will not be making changes even if someone ends up noticing some foreshadowing and figures out what will happen. The story comes first. 8. I have a wife, a job that demands 9h every day and courses related to my job (lawyer) three days of the week, it's unlikely that I will be able to do mass releases at all. I will have a healthy amount of chapters to be able to post at least 1 chapter every day continually. Don't worry. 9. I will read all the comments. I will listen to all you have to say and will try my best to accommodate demands as long as they do not hamper the path I prepared. 10. There is an arc that spans the entire novel. Each volume will be an arc in itself while progressing a little bit of the main arc. Every arc will have one or more main antagonists. I think that's it! Thank you for reading it all. Have an awesome time reading my first novel!!

There will be no violation (rape) scenes in my story. Rape, sadly, is part of our world with many culprits and victims and I don't accept to 'create' another victim OR culprit of such monstrosities, even if they are fictional. The story in general will remain on the bright side most of the time.
