Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

"Bastian! Have you bought food for Lisa?" Andien asked excitedly.

"Yes, but I only bought chicken noodles. I'm afraid that Sis Lisa won't be able to eat anything with spicy seasoning," said Bastian while handing the package to Andien.

"Eh, it's okay. You've helped a lot, I don't know how to thank you."

The man just smiled and said, "It's okay, Sis Lisa is also my colleague. The important thing now is that she is awake, I am so happy to see her."

"Oh my, you really bothered to buy all this for me, Bas! How should I repay you?" Lisa teased.

"Eh, it's okay, Lis, you don't need to repay me! Come on, you need to eat it or it will get cold and it won't taste good," Bastian replied kindly.

"Bas, have you eaten?"

"I have earlier. You just eat first so you get better quickly."

After eating, Andien looked closely at Lisa and Bastian. The man's body language indicated that he wanted to talk about something personal with Lisa. Without much thought, Andien immediately got up from where she sat and looked for an excuse to leave.

"Lis, I want to buy snacks in the canteen first. I'll come back later, okay? Anyway, do you want me to buy you anything? Bastian? Lisa?" Andien asked before giving Lisa and Bastian space to talk privately.

"Oh no, I'm full," Bastian replied politely. A sweet smile on his lips made Andien fascinated.

"I want snacks," Lisa replied briefly.

When Andien came out, Bastian immediately sat next to Lisa then broke the silence by asking, "Lisa, I heard they said you resigned from Colors Advertising? Is that true?"

"Yes," Lisa replied flatly.

Bastian frowned, Lisa's response looked suspicious. "Why did you resign?"

"Did you not hear any rumors in the office about why I left there? There's no way you didn't hear anything. I'm sure it's already spreading like a virus!" Lisa replied reluctantly.

"I've heard about it but I don't believe their version. I have to cross-check with your version too. What if it turns out that people in the office were exaggerating?" Bastian added, still looking curious.

Lisa looked at Bastian with an amazed face. It turned out that there was still someone as wise as Bastian. The words he had just uttered gave her a little relief after the unpleasant incident at Colors Advertising's office.

Lisa looked at Bastian's face then said, "So I left the office because I was accused of being a homewrecker and Rangga's mistress. I was also annoyed with Rangga because he had been lying to me all this time!"

Bastian strained his ears, paying attention to every story that Lisa said.

"Rangga dared to lie to me even though I've been friends with him since childhood that he was still single. He said he was single, but when I went to his house and found out that he had a child, he admitted that he was actually a widower with one child and so on— I didn't know, I forgot, it was really complicated. And uhh, apparently, when I went to the office I was beaten by his wife. I was accused of having an affair with Rangga, even though it was Rangga who tried to approach me!"

"Wow, is that so?" Bastian said, trying to be wise and fair.

"So I just found out that Rangga already has a wife and that he's a player. Crazy, I've been a friend of his from a young age, but I just found out that he is a jerk now," Lisa continued bluntly.

Bastian just hummed in response. Lisa then continued her rant, "The problem is that people don't believe that Rangga and I are just friends! It really upsets me, you know!"

Bastian nodded, he touched Lisa's palm and said, "You don't need to hold a grudge at Rangga. After all, it's clear now who the culprit is. I saw Rangga's wife Maria, she is not a good woman in my opinion. Arrogant and always looks down on others. What a cocky person!"

Hearing Bastian's words just now made Lisa burst into tears. She couldn't stop laughing until finally she took a deep breath.

"By the way, Bas, thank you very much for helping Andien to take me to the hospital," said Lisa sincerely.

"No problem, I'm just doing what must be done," Bastian replied, smiling sweetly.

"You brat!" Lisa replied jokingly.

Just when the conversation between the two was over, Andien came carrying a plastic bag filled with snacks from the canteen.

Seeing the figure of a woman with a plump body, Bastian immediately got up from his seat and said, "Alright, you should rest more. If I have free time I'll definitely visit again. Don't think too much about it, okay!"

"Yes, thanks again!"

Now, Andien and Lisa were left alone in the room. Andien put the snacks she bought on the table and tidied up.

"Damn, your friend is so cute, I swear. I really want to hug him!" Andien said noisily while preparing the food.

"Huh? You think Bastian will let you do something like that?" Lisa replied, rolling her eyes.

"But I swear, he's not only cute, Bastian is also really kind. Are you sure you don't want to be with him?" Andien asked, getting curious.

"Huh, what for? He's my friend, don't think anything weird, okay?"

"But this is a good chance, at least he can help you heal after Oscar left."

The sentence that Andien just said made Lisa a little offended. Her expressionless face suddenly turned grim.

Andien was not aware of what she said just now. She immediately said, "Lis, sorry! I don't mean to offend you. I'm just curious and worried about your condition…"

Lisa just shook her head. "Alright, sorry, I'm so over sensitive too."

"So, do you have any plans in the future about where you want to find a new job?" Andien said, trying to change the subject.

"I still don't know. Guess I'll just focus on getting better first."

"Ah, since I don't have anything to do yet, let's look for it together. You also still have a responsibility to support your mom and sister."

"Yeah. As soon as I get discharged from here, I want to find a new job and go back to my mother's house to see how Bella is doing with her college," Lisa replied, staring at the ceiling.

"That fast? So you want to make sure she works on her thesis, huh? Crazy how time flies."

"Yes.. It just feels like yesterday when I helped my sister from the bullies near our house in the village when she was in elementary school, hahaha," Lisa said, breaking the tense atmosphere.
