Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Lisa returned to the office feeling stuck and uneasy. How could she not, today she had to go to the manager to prove that Johan's accusation was wrong, but she hadn't found any convincing evidence at all! If she couldn't convince her manager that she was innocent, it could be that she'd have to pack up all her belongings and leave the finance department for good.

Moreover, she had an argument with Rangga about a trivial matter last night. Of course Lisa couldn't rely on that man to help her out today. No one could help her except herself. 

It was better for Lisa to decide to resign from Hotel Cendana. Instead of hindering the development of this company, it would be better for her to step aside and look for a new job even though it was very difficult, especially with her age that nearly hit 30.

Throughout the morning, Lisa had been struggling with her decision to resign. If it weren;t for her responsibility to support her small family in the capital, she wouldn't have been willing to move to Bekasi to work.

Suddenly, Johan came over to Lisa's desk and said, "Is the resignation letter ready? Are you not excited?"

What did that ugly scrawny man mean just now? What he had just said sounded like an insult!

"You... If you want to do something bad to me, don't do it half-assed. You'll never make me surrender! It's better if you just pretend to be nice in front of the manager like usual," Lisa replied sarcastically as she rolled her eyes lazily.

"Don't worry, you'll find out soon," Johan replied with a suspicious expression.

After that the man returned to his desk, Lisa would watch him from behind her computer screen every now and then, trying to find out if he made any suspicious movements.

Unintentionally, their two eyes met each other. Not wanting to feel defeated and humiliated, Lisa stared at the snake's eyes with a cold and sharp gaze.

Time went so fast, it didn't feel like it was already late in the afternoon. No strange signs from Johan were observed throughout the day. The manager also didn't call Lisa or Johan until now. Lisa was getting restless, she couldn't stand still staring at her computer screen for too long, especially with a restless heart that started to pound hard.

She felt like she could only hope to convince the manager that she was innocent, and that Johan would admit his mistakes. But she knew well that this was a dream that she could never achieve, like a midget yearning for the moon.

There was no other way than to hand over her resignation letter to the manager, Lisa thought. She did not want to procrastinate any longer, so she immediately took the initiative to hand over a folded sheet of paper neatly wrapped in an envelope to the manager.

Lisa got up from her seat and strolled into the manager's room. She knocked firmly on the door, breaking the concentration of the employees nearby.

"Come in," the manager answered loudly from inside.

"Sir, sorry to disturb you, I want to give this.."

Before she could finish her sentence, Johan immediately ran and cut Lisa, "Sir, please listen to me! This is all my fault. I admit, I changed yesterday's budget figures! Please forgive me, Lisa!"

The man immediately knelt in front of Lisa like a slave asking his master to forgive him to be fed. Seeing this sight immediately made Lisa disgusted. She really wanted to spit on him.

"What is this!!?" The manager asked, feeling confused about what had happened in front of his eyes just now.

Lisa was speechless to hear the sentence coming out from Johan's very sly mouth.

"Huh, I'm not dreaming now, right? You're not drunk, are you? Johan?"

"I'm really sorry, please forgive me. I've slandered you!" Johan pleaded with pitiful eyes and a sad face.

Lisa frowned, looking both confused and suspicious. "You're not pretending anymore, right? How come I feel like you're pretending to apologize to me in front of the manager so you look like a nice person?" She replied sarcastically.

"No, Lisa, I'm really sorry for setting you up. This is all my fault. I was the one who changed the draft budget figures that you compiled. I'm sorry, please I'm really sorry, I regret my bad deeds!" Johan knelt down and clasped his hands together while asking Lisa for forgiveness.

"What is this? Explain to me!" The manager asked, feeling confused and annoyed.

"Manager, it was completely my fault. Lisa did nothing wrong in the preparation of the budget plan yesterday. Please don't blame her, let her work in this office and don't fire her sir. I admit I was wrong..." Johan explained pitifully.

"Wow, Johan, are you really a top actor? How come you're so clever in acting like this?" Lisa replied sharply.

"That's enough, you two! Johan has admitted his mistake and this is fully his responsibility. Lisa, forgive me for accusing you," the manager suddenly said.

Lisa was silent for a moment and tried to think, she couldn't digest what had just happened before her eyes. This morning, Johan came to tease her as if she was going to be fired by the manager. Now the man admitted his mistake in front of her and the manager.

"Lisa, don't worry about the budget plan that you designed, let me take full responsibility for fixing it," Johan asked, still with a disgusting face that made Lisa want to puke.

But wasn't this a great opportunity for Lisa to harbor her anger and annoyance towards Johan? She lifted her chin arrogantly, clearing her throat and said, "So you're admitting that you deliberately asked permission to leave for several days so that I worked on the draft budget alone? Then, you deliberately asked for the file to print at that time, but before you did, you changed the budget plan first so that I would be scolded by the Manager, huh? And you deliberately harmed me like this because I rejected your love, right?"

Johan didn't flinch. His tongue was unable to speak.

"Johan fell in love with you!?" The manager asked with a surprised face. He got up from his chair quickly.

"Yes sir. This man sent me a love letter once but I rejected his feelings."

"This is totally unacceptable! This office must be free from any romantic relationships between employees! I don't want things like this to happen anymore because it will hinder the employees' performance at this Cendana Hotel!" The manager exclaimed furiously.

"But..." Johan said, stammering. "It has nothing to do with the budget draft issue, right? I have admitted my mistake, why did you drag personal problems into this?"

"The problem is you trapped me because of this personal problem, idiot!" Lisa mocked loudly, pointing her finger at Johan's astonished face.
