Stealing The Wife's First Kiss Chapter 169
Advertisement
This girl was silent remembering her past that she missed so much.
"Don't be sad. Soon, you can go to college, you can return to your activities, and you can even taste junk food as long as you don't have too much". Mahendra suppressed his anxiety. This man finally decided to give freedom to Aruna. The simple communication that existed between Aruna's sister, himself, and this tiny girl reminded the blue-eyed that he'd taken many things from his own wife.
"Is it true??". Aruna seemed to want to jump. She was very happy.
"Yes". One word that came out of the blue-eyed man's mouth made his girl tiptoe and pull his neck. She wanted to give a peck on the cheek, but their heights didn't match.
"Haha.. Tell me if you want to give me a gift". Hendra chuckled seeing Aruna's behavior that failed miserably. Lesmana's daughter was embarrassed.
When the blue-eyed matched their heights, it was a pity that the elevator door was already open.
"Hehehe.. You're the one who failed now". Aruna was laughing at Hendra now.

"You don't want to fight for our relationship?". She asked that after listening to the words of the man he loved. That girl trembled, holding the glass she'd just taken a sip.
"Neither I nor you could possibly be able to go against their will". The man in front of her was no longer able to look at Syakila's face.
"You're just going to give up? I'm disappointed in you". That woman began to shed tears.
"I've seen a man who wanted to kill himself just because he's trying to fight his fate. At first, I thought I'd do something crazy to keep you. But after a while, I realized that if I hold on, in the future I'd be just as bad. He's luckier though. His rival isn't part of the family". This man looked at his girl's face one last time.
"Let me go, Shakila. Someday if you can be free, come to me whenever you want". That man grabbed his cell phone and slung his bag over his shoulder. He was ready to go.
"You weren't like this. But why are you like this now?". There were tears falling down.
"Because I have to be realistic. If I decide to stay, I have to be ready to see you in his arms. That's unrealistic. Even more absurd when we go against your father's will, as well as my family's will. You and I are no match for them. Even if we run to a desert island in this country, it remains impossible. We can get caught and you'll suffer even more. Accept your destiny and I'll accept mine".

That man left the distraught woman who was hiding herself in her palms, sobbing uncontrollably. While the person at the front didn't look back at her again. Their six years together, ended up just like this.

The black Bentley Continental sped down the capital's streets. There was a happy smile on the girl's face. She'd been smiling since yesterday. It had been a long time since she'd been allowed to return to her simple world. The campus, Magic Letter, possibly about her who might be able to teach again in the place where she seeked happiness with those little kids.
"Ah.. How happy I am..". Aruna opened the car window and felt the air blow her hair while frantically looking for a hair band. A moment later, her long hair turned into a ponytail.
"Hendra, can this car stop for a moment?". Aruna asked for permission.
"No! You just got sick. No junk food for today and the next few days". As usual, the CEO of Wenceslas Group was busy looking at his cell phone, taking calls, and chatting with people.
"Hen.. Your schedule at the TV station is at 8 PM today, but you have to be there for the briefing at 6.30 PM". Surya reminded his boss' agenda.
"Okay, alright. As usual, prepare clothes for my wife including her makeup". Hendra asked.
"Don't worry. I've contacted Leona. She'll take care of everything". Surya explained.
"Aruna, please close the window! The air is dirty". This man still got time to see Aruna's behavior in the middle of work discussions.
"There's still a traffic jam at the front?". Hendra was a little nervous. In an hour, he had to go to the next agenda at the office. Unfortunately, he was still stuck on the road to take his wife home first.
"What if we go straight to the office?". Surya provided a solution. The people on the D floor needed Hendra. They managed to overcome the second sabotage. Unfortunately, the investigators who handled the first sabotage case couldn't be conquered.
They had presented the concept as natural as possible, including analytical data supporting the rhetoric presented by their CEO. It was as if the investigators were looking for an endless inch of weakness. That's why diversion of issues needed to be intensified or the condition would get worse, because of many speculations that were deliberately carried out by several parties.

"Aruna, what about..". He hadn't finished asking.
"I'm coming to the office!".
"Really? No problem?".
"If I'm tired, I can just sleep in your private room right? If I'm hungry, I'll just ask for food? What else do I need?". This girl was still excited. Going back to the main house was more difficult for her. She felt trapped.
"But I'll be gone for quite a while.. I'm trying to contact your bodyguards. Have a good rest while I'm away. We'll meet again at 5.30 PM. Hope you look beautiful". Mahendra said.
"Okay, CEO!". Aruna exclaimed.
"But, by the way, I haven't got breakfast from you today". Hendra remembered.
"Ugh. You guys will do it again. Just do it later. You better sympathize with us. Don't forget that Hery and I are single". Surya objected.
***
The CEO of Wenceslas Group held his wife's hand after getting out of the Bentley Continental and then heading to his private elevator to the fifth floor. Mahendra hadn't let go of that hand grip.
The girl had a simple look with no make-up, only a ponytail, a bright colored skirt, and a white top combined with a cream colored sweater.
It was quite a contrast to what was around her. The typical neat clothes of elite offices were complemented with perfect make-up on every woman who was there. Including masculine men with shirts who looked neat.
Moreover, the person who was holding Aruna. He had a different aura with the suit he was wearing. Each room and table that was passed presented an automatic movement where someone spontaneously stood up to greet him or salute him.
Hendra walked with a firm, fast rhythm. Sometimes, his eyes glanced briefly at the people around him. In fact, he didn't care at all most of the time. Because the blue-eyed was just silent along the way, without returning the smile and greeting the people who presented their bright smiles. Even Aruna who seemed confused put on a smile to reply to several people.
.
.
"So, that's his wife". A muffle sound crept into their ears.
"She looked amazing at the Blue Oceans party. But she's so simple right now".
"Well, it's called an arranged marriage. However the result is, it has to be accepted".
"I think that girl is lucky enough, since she's average. Just younger than us. Haha".
"If it's true that the CEO was on leave just to take care of his wife yesterday, this isn't just an arranged marriage or forced marriage. But, a really warm husband and wife relationship".
"At least we need to thank her. Because of her, we enjoyed a few days free from the restraints of the perfectionist CEO".
"What you said is right".
Hendra's office was suddenly full of heated discussions regarding the arrival of a simple new creature who was said to be able to influence the sole heir of the Wenceslas Group.
.
.
Not far from Aruna's expectations, Hendra sank into his desk when he arrived at the room she'd visited before to dry her wet skirt.
A moment later, the files arrived, accompanied by beautiful women and neat men in turn. Some of the files were rejected, some were accepted, and some weren't touched at all.
But, someone was sitting in front of him for a long time.
A woman with shoulder-length hair. Aruna accidentally heard that she was the manager of this hotel. It seemed that the financial report issue hadn't been completed. Hendra discussed it for a long time.
At the end of the conversation, Hendra asked that woman to take Aruna to his private room, while asking for healthy snacks and drinks to be served for his wife.
That woman kept smiling warmly accompanying Aruna's footsteps. She spoke professionally with a certain accent. Aruna wouldn't be able to imitate the way she talked.
"Honey, a moment..". Hendra called. That voice echoed and made several people turn their heads, including her who was already on the other end.

A Fate Set in Stone (On Hold)
After dying and making his way into the afterlife, our protagonist happens to have a stroke of good luck. With the help of the substitute god of death, he's given a second shot at life in a world run by gods who probably played too many video games as kids. Monsters, magic, dungeons, bandits, and all that good stuff is there, except it turns out to be much different than Jed initially expected.(I picked some generic tags since this is my first story and I am not 100% sure where it is going to go. Mature warning is only there for some less-than-polite language.)

Glass Cannon
Mortal Coil is the best VRMMO in the market with millions of people playing it! In this game, two best friends made a bet with each other. Whoever becomes the #1 ranked would win. Such a simple bet, but to them, it was like a declaration of war. Being two of the most stubborn individuals on the planet that saw loss as a personal offense, they made this last bet before cutting off their friendship due to some... complicated matters(Don't worry It'll get explained in the book). The problem was, that one was super talented at the game, and the other was super shit. This story revolves around that player. No, not the talented one, the shit one. Hated by many for his rather "uncouth" strategies (one of which included hitting a guy in the back of the head with a wooden board, stealing all his stuff and leaving him stark naked in the middle of the woods), his name is Jack. Oh, and did I mention he's a min-Maxed for health which drives people insane? Unfortunately, as luck would have it, he stumbles upon the worst possible hidden class for him. Warrior of Glass. A class with insanely high attack power... and insanely low HP. He's also given a quest to retrieve a sword in the middle of the Ashen Forest (lovingly nicknamed "Suicide Woods" by the players) and another quest to kill 7 insanely powerful demon lords that roam the lands so he can fulfill his predecessor's legacy. Now, armed only with a veeery high damage output, an unbendable will of steel and his almost nonexistent sense of guilt (emphasis on almost), he still aims to become the #1 player. This time, with some serious handicaps.
