Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 17
Advertisement
Cleo nodded happily because she got the answer she wanted.
"Thank you so much! You are the best!" said Cleo on purpose, giving Mayang a thumbs-up because her friend knew how to help her.
Even though it wasn't good to cooperate with fellow workers to lie or falsify employee attendance data, Cleo was still very grateful to Mayang because she wanted to help her.
Because otherwise, her unfriendly manager would definitely make this an excuse to unilaterally fire her.
Even though the income in this mini-market was not big, Cleo still didn't want to take the risk by giving up this job like that
She knew how difficult it was to find a job amidst the thousands of unemployed who were looking for job.
Coupled with a number of students who had recently become fond of doing part-time work or internships between their time, so that of course, it made jobs less and less.
And since she had received three harsh reprimands from her manager for having made several mistakes, and she had been absent several times for some reason or even arriving late, Cleo clearly couldn't add more to the list of negligence in work, which was definitely intolerable by that Discipline Madman.
Her job was at stake.
Hah! It was too scary to be imagined.
"You haven't answered my question," Mayang protested Cleo after a while because she didn't answer her question at the beginning.
Cleo stared at her silently. Trying to think about which question her friend meant.
"Is there any problem?" Mayang asked then.
Didn't know what kind of worry came to Mayang's mind.
Cleo answered with a shaking head.
"Don't lie to me! Does it relate with your creditors? " Mayang asked once again, full of curiosity.
Indeed, Cleo once told Mayang about her problem. Yes, it was her debts to a creditor.

Not in detail, of course. But Cleo didn't think that Mayang would still remember it and immediately linked her tardiness problem with it.
Yeah...even though they were actually related.
Cleo sighed and denied.
"Ah, no-no! Not like that. Don't worry. I just had a little business this morning, " Cleo replied modestly.
Cleo clearly couldn't tell about her crazy decision to marry a big conglomerate for the sake of a lot of money.
She was sure that if Mayang knew about it, this woman would immediately become hysterical and fainted on the spot.
"I think I've found the right way to solve all my problems with those creditors. I'm sure, I'll be free from those money enthusiasts, " said Cleo with great confidence.
Even though she hadn't achieved the result yet, but at least Cleo would try.
And of course, Mayang wouldn't understand what she meant.
Yes, Cleo could only be free from these creditors if Harry's grandmother agreed to their relationship.
So, there was no reason for Harry to refuse Cleo's request.
But, the problem now was that Cleo still hadn't fulfilled her obligations.
She still needed to talk to Mrs. Sofia again tomorrow morning at the hospital.
Her conversation with Mrs. Sofia today was not finished yet. It failed. So, she needed to see Mrs. Sofia again and talk to her.
Yes, that should be her intention again, but a phone call changed it.
Drettt... drettt...
Harry's Secretary (Dirga).
The name appeared on the screen, right when Cleo was in a mall, another her workplace.
Cleo immediately picked it up.
"Hello?" Cleo answered doubtfully.
She herself was confused about why secretary Dirga could contact her so quickly.
If he wanted to know how her meeting with Mrs. Sofia today, Cleo obviously couldn't give him a good answer.

But if he wanted to tell her bad news, Cleo certainly didn't know how to deal with it.
"Could it be that Mrs. Sofia complained something bad about me? Or, this agreement is cancelled because they've found a replacement or some other solution?" Cleo asked in her heart.
Hizz ..
Cleo was pissed off.
She hadn't spoken much with Mrs. Sofia. Therefore, this phone call didn't make her happy.
"Mrs. Cleo?" a voice greeted Cleo from across the phone.
Such a calm voice as still as standing water. Cleo became worried.
"Yes?" Cleo replied.
"I am Dirgantara, Mr. Harry's personal secretary. Do you still remember me?" Dirga asked politely.
"Of course I remember you !! How could I forget the boy I just met one day ago? And, who is also the man who will become my bridge in the future?!" Cleo said that in her heart.
"Yes, of course I remember," Cleo replied politely too.
"I called you because I want to tell you that your proposal has been approved. Mrs. Sofia has accepted you as her future lawful granddaughter. And because of that, your agreement with Mr Harry will be immediately acted upon. And if you are pleased, you may come to Mr. Harry's office in person to discuss the matter in more detail. For your success, I say congratulations. Congratulations on your success in convincing Mrs. Sofia so well. " Dirga explained.
