Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

The days went by fast. The day turned to night as the months changed. In the blink of an eye, it didn't feel like it had been almost 3 months since Lisa worked at the Cendana Hotel. Finally, she became a permanent employee and was given a permanent salary. How happy Lisa was, she could support her small family in Jakarta and raise the child in her womb better now.

Her hands slowly went down to her lower abdomen and then rubbed them gently. A smile appeared on the edge of her lips as she said in her heart, "Honey, you must bring good luck to your mom. Take it easy honey, I will work hard for your survival until you are born."

Lately, Lisa had been nauseous and she vomited in the morning so often. To make matters worse, she also did it in the office! She always ran to the bathroom at 9 AM to spill her stomach. Always!

The weather outside was also very bad, the change from dry to rainy season made her health decline drastically, especially since her pregnancy entered its fourth month. 

That afternoon after work, the sky that covered the city of Bekasi suddenly turned dark. Thunder began to rumble, and the wind began to feel cold. Soon the rain would definitely fall. Too bad Lisa forgot to bring an umbrella when she left this morning. 

This morning, the weather was so hot that Lisa thought it wouldn't rain today. However, it actually rained, soaking nearly all the streets in Bekasi city.

While the rain was not too heavy, Lisa immediately walked back to her boarding house. But on the way, her body was soaked wet. She regretted not taking the taxi earlier. She thought since her boarding house was not too far from where she worked, she could reach the place quickly just by walking.

Arriving at the boarding house, Lisa hurriedly took off her clothes and cleaned herself with warm water. 

After taking a shower, she immediately dropped her tired body on the mattress, sighing deeply. Nothing accompanied her other than a sudden feeling of dizziness.

Lisa held her temples while frowning, enduring the excruciating pain while trying to sleep. It was such a dizziness that made her eyelids feel heavy. She still didn't want to sleep, but without realizing it, she fell asleep like a drugged person.

The next morning, Alia was pacing back and forth looking for Lisa, who still hadn't arrived until 9 am. At first, Alia thought Lisa might have been oversleeping so it was too late. He tried to contact Lisa but there was no answer at all.

Since Alia knew Lisa was not the type to ditch her work if there was no important business, she immediately came to the manager's room and asked, "Good morning sir, is Lisa coming in today? I haven't seen her since earlier,"

Hasan looked at Alia in surprise. He frowned and replied, "I don't know? Lisa didn't ask me any permission,"

"She's usually on time, so I thought if you know anything or that she had obtained permission from you," Alia replied, raising an eyebrow.

"Okay, let me contact Lisa now. You can go back to your desk," Hasan said, reaching for his cell phone.

When Alia left, Hasan immediately made a call to a mysterious person whom he had contacted at that time.

"Hello, this is Hasan," he said anxiously.

"Yes, I know. What's wrong with Lisa?" The man asked from across.

"Lisa didn't come to the office today but she didn't even contact me for permission to be absent or anything. I understand she is not the type to come late, let alone being irresponsible, but I am worried that something might happen to her. That's why I called you," Hasan explained.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Hasan."

"Sir, are you sure you still want to chase her? You can't force her to love you," Hasan asked curiously.

"I will make her fall in love with me. Thank you for the info anyway," Rangga said as he closed the call.

He immediately got up from his chair and went to Bekasi to check on Lisa's condition. During the journey, the man's heart was shaken as if it was hit by the storm.

He tried to contact Lisa several times, but the woman did not pick up his call. This made his heart beat even faster. It felt like it was going to jump out of his chest.

How could he not panic? Rangga knew for sure that Lisa had no friends or family in Bekasi. The only people who knew her were colleagues at the office, and even then Rangga didn't know any of them.

The man immediately called Andien, hoping that Lisa was staying at her apartment. "Hello Andien, does Lisa stay at your place?" His voice sounded very restless and panicked.

Andien was a little surprised to hear Rangga's question just now, "No, I'm in the office right now. She works in Bekasi, right?"

Not finished talking, Rangga immediately hung up the call and stepped on full speed.

Arriving in Bekasi, the man knocked on the gate of Lisa's boarding house many times, but no one opened it. He was getting more and more panicked. The man grabbed her cell phone from his pocket and called Lisa several times.

Still, there was absolutely no answer. Rangga almost lost it, what if Lisa fell in the bathroom and no one helped her?

Rangga repeatedly knocked on the gate in the hope that someone would open it. Until a few minutes later, the landlady came out looking annoyed.

"Who are you looking for, kid?" She asked.

"Ma'am! Is Lisa there? Looks like she passed out in her room!" Rangga replied in a panic tone.

"Who are you to her?" The woman asked suspiciously.

"Ma'am, please! Lisa hasn't been to the office all day. I called her many times and there was no answer. Let me check on her! It's dangerous if she fell in the bathroom and fainted," Rangga said, begging.

The woman then paused and thought for a moment. Usually, she always saw Lisa coming out of the boarding house every morning. But she hadn't seen her out of her room today. Then she began to suspect. Could it be that what this guy said was true?

"I haven't seen her either. Wait, I'll open it for a while," the woman replied, also looking worried.

The landlady knocked on Lisa's door repeatedly, and there was no answer from inside. She turned the doorknob and it turned out that the door was unlocked.

How shocked they were when they saw Lisa lying on the floor with a pale face and bluish lips. Without thinking much, Rangga immediately stepped in and embraced her.

"Lisa! Wake up! What's wrong with you?! Oh God... She's burning!" Rangga exclaimed, looking scared.

The man helped her get up from where she fell, put her on the bed while wiping her sweaty forehead.

She ignored Rangga's question as she still seemed unconscious.

"Ma'am, I'll take Lisa to the hospital, okay? I will take full responsibility if something untoward happens to her," Rangga said, asking permission from the landlady.

In return, the woman nodded and said, "Be careful, kid. Sorry I didn't know that Lisa fell ill like this. Sorry, I was not being careful..."

" It doesn't matter, it's not anyone's fault," Rangga said, comforting her.

***

The next day, Lisa woke up with a dizzy head that made her eyes very heavy. The first thing she did after waking up from her long sleep was inhaling the disinfectant scent that stung her sense of smell.

Lisa tried to turn from side to side, looking around her. The room was so different from hers. Suddenly, she heard a voice from her left ear calling out her name.

"Oscar....? Is that you?" Lisa said softly.
