Chapter 944 - Cold But Loyal

"Have you forgotten about what auntie said?"

"Auntie, don't worry. I'll keep my mouth shut tight. I know that family disgrace should not be exposed in public. But this is happy news, isn't it? I'm happy too!" Bella has a character like her mother. She was very honest, saying everything that was on her mind.

The family disgrace that Bella means is about Adrian, who is the son of Galih and Jessica. That night, it was true that she listened to everything Aiden and Anya had to say.

But she didn't tell anyone about this matter.

Anya tried to explain patiently to Bella that this matter was something she couldn't casually talk about in public.

Bella is only 19 years old and still a child. But she knows about Adrian's past. If the problem was exposed, then it would affect Aiden and Anya.

If this problem makes Aiden and Anya embarrassed, won't the entire Atmajaya Family also be affected?

Bella didn't really understand it. But she realized that her last name was Atmajaya. So, she didn't want to embarrass her own family.

Plus, Adrian always treats her well when she is in Indonesia.

Unlike Arka and Aksa who treat her like a child and are impatient with her, Adrian is very patient and gentle with her.

Anya repeatedly warns Bella not to get too close to Adrian because Adrian himself doesn't know that Bella has heard about his past.

Bella thought for a moment and felt the same way as Anya. Adrian must not know that Bella accidentally listened to the secret.

If Adrian found out, he would be embarrassed to meet her next time. Maybe his attitude towards Bella would change.

"If you're bored, you can be an intern at Iris together with Adel," Aiden told Bella to work again.

"Can't I work for brother Adrian instead?" She asked.

"Why do you want to work with him?" Anya asked.

Bella hugged Anya's arm and said with a spoiled face, "Auntie, don't worry. Brother Arka and Brother Aksa always treat me like a child and don't care about me. But Brother Adrian is very kind and respects me. If you want to tell me to study, I prefer to study together with him. Iris is very thriving now and there are so many people there. Besides, I don't like working."

Hearing the reason, Anya felt a little relieved. "You… Alright, don't make me worried again."

"Staying at your house is the most comfortable. Brother Adrian is very similar to you, auntie. He's friendly and easy to approach. I really like you and don't want to leave here," Bella said while holding Anya's hand. "Can I just work at Brother Adrian's place? Can I?"

Anya looked at Aiden shyly. She asked him to decide because she didn't know what would happen if Bella worked with Adrian.

Aiden noticed his wife's pleading gaze and said, "Adrian has just taken over the Pratama Group and he still has a lot to learn. He won't have time to teach you. If you want to work there, you can't cause trouble for him…"

"I won't make trouble, I promise!" Bella immediately raised her hand like she was about to take an oath.

Aiden's eyes fell on her. "Pratama Group has been around for a long time and the pressure to lead it is quite heavy. Now, Adrian has to bear it all alone. I believe you are a good girl and will not trouble Adrian. If you really want to help him, uncle and aunt give you permission."

"Thank you, Uncle!" Bella jumped with joy. She ran to the back house to find Adrian.

Adrian had just finished taking a shower and was making coffee in the kitchen. After taking over the Pratama Group, he often stayed up until dawn to finish his work.

He arrives at the company every 8 am and continues to work until his break. During his break, he only had two hours to eat and rest.

In the meantime, he was making coffee to keep him awake and refresh his mind a bit.

When Bella arrived there, it was Aksa who opened the door. The man then immediately ignored Bella and sat on the sofa lazily looking at his cellphone.

He saw everyone supporting Sabrina and his brother, so he felt a little annoyed.

It's true that he used to say no matter who Sabrina chose, he would support her. But when it really happened, Aksa felt the urge to oppose their relationship.

"Brother Aksa, what are you doing?" Bella walked to the sofa and saw Aksa reading the news. "Why did you read the news?"

"What do you know, brat? Why did you come here?" Aksa asked, looking hella annoyed.

"I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for Brother Adrian," Bella ran to the kitchen cheerfully. "Brother, uncle and aunt have given me permission to do an internship at your company. When you leave tomorrow, I'll come with you!"

Adrian was silent for a moment and looked at the sofa. "I think it's better if you do an internship at Atmajaya Group. I just took over the company and I don't have much experience to share with you."

"We can learn together. Wouldn't that be better? Brother Arka and Brother Aksa think I'm stupid and they don't want to teach me," Bella said on purpose.

"Come on, Adrian. Just invite him to your company," said Aksa.

"I'll call dad," Adrian called Aiden and it was true that the man had given permission for Bella to be an apprentice at Pratama Group.

"I'm not lying. Uncle and aunt have agreed!" When she said that, Bella's eyes lit up.

"Okay, tomorrow at 7.30, I will pick you up and we will go together to the office," Adrian said softly.

Every day, Bella wakes up at 10 pm, but now Adrian asks her to be ready at 7.30. 

"Why so early? Can't I just work at 10? I can go alone…"

"If you want to do an internship at Pratama Group, you have to follow company rules. If you can't get up early, you might consider interning at Iris. Adel will definitely teach you many things," Adrian said, not intending to bargain.

"No! I will wake up early tomorrow. Now I'll go home and go to bed early! Good evening, Uncle Adrian. Good night, Brother Aksa!" Bella said goodbye to them and then left.

Aksa raised his head and looked at his brother. "Are you really going to take her to the company?"

"Semester break is not long. I should be able to last until her holidays are over," Adrian poured coffee into his cup. "Brother, would you like some coffee?"

"Adrian, you're drinking coffee again," Nico suddenly appeared at the front door.

"Brother! You came on time. Brother Aksa is heartbroken right now so stay with him. I have to go back to work now," said Adrian.

Nico nodded, "Alright, you go."

After Adrian returned upstairs, Aksa took a pillow, hugged it and said reluctantly, "Brother, you said that my brother and I are exactly the same. Why did I lose to him?"

Nico patted Aksa's shoulder. "You two are twins so your face and appearance are the same. You didn't get Sabrina, but that doesn't mean you lost. Maybe she is not your soul mate, but Arka's. Even if you are even better than Arka, if Sabrina wasn't destined for you, she would never have chosen you."

"God is so unfair," Aksa said angrily.

"Mason was very calm when he received this news. Now he was thinking. If only he learned how to approach women from me, maybe he could get Sabrina as my daughter-in-law. However, now it was too late to regret. Aksa, you know I'm closest to you because we're so much alike. On the outside, we look uncaring and cold, but we're actually very loyal," Nico said with a smile.

Aksa immediately laughed. "If you are unfaithful, how could you chase after my sister-in-law for so many years despite being rejected so many times?"
