Indri sighed from her lips, "Oscar, do you ever see yourself in the mirror? A man like you, handsome, tall, white, and has a lot of money... I'm sure there isn't a woman who doesn't fall in love with you!"
Without giving Oscar a chance to reply, Indri tiptoed slightly then kissed the man's sensual lips.
Oscar widened his clear blue eyes. He didn't think that Indri would kiss him here!
The man actually prepared himself for a hard slap on his cheek, and not a sudden kiss like this.
Oscar's first instinct was to push the woman away. But her tight embrace around his neck made it impossible for him to move much.
"Oscar, I really love you. Can't you see it? My heart is completely yours! Whatever you want, I can give it.. Just say it... as long as you want to be mine."
Hearing that made Lisa startled again. Did Indri forget that Oscar was rich enough that he didn't need anything else?
"I love you, Oscar." Indri repeated persistently.
"Indri, listen to me! You can't think straight now because of the amount of alcohol you drink. If you're sober later, you definitely won't love me! Come on…"
Again Oscar pushed Indri's body away. The man pushed his head back a little, so Indri couldn't kiss his lips.
"Gosh Indri, I can only be friends with you. My heart is full, there's no empty place for you!"
For some reason, Lisa suddenly felt relieved. Relief, joy, surprise, all mixed into one!
But wait a minute. If Oscar and Indri have no special relationship, why does the man often buy her flowers? Not to mention inviting her to dinner together.
'Don't tell me that guy just gave Indri false hope!? What an asshole!'
"We're just co-workers, Indri. That's all! Nothing more!" Oscar repeated firmly, he was trying to make Indri remember their agreement.
Indri's eyes started to turn red and her body felt cold and shivering because Oscar didn't hug her back. She felt like her heart was being toyed with and her mind was in turmoil.
Indri couldn't lose this man. If she did, Indri didn't know what would happen.
"Yeah, I know that I promised to maintain our relationship professionally. Co-workers, right? But now everything has changed. So please…"
"I can't control my heart not to like you. I'm sorry, it's just that I really like you, Oscar! Please," Indri said pleadingly. The woman's lower lip trembled, as did her legs. "Please give me a chance to make you fall in love with me."
Again, Oscar pushed Indri's body away. "No! You can't make me fall in love with you, Indri!"
Maybe because Indri was a little drunk and the man's strength was much greater than hers, her body was pushed back a little. The woman almost fell from her high heels. Indri looked up and looked at Oscar in disbelief.
"Why did you push me?" Indri asked in disbelief. "Are you serious? Pushing down a woman like me?"
Oscar tidied his collar, "Gosh, that's not what I meant. It's just that you're too close to me, and I don't like that."
"It's all because of Lisa, right? Because of Lisa you can't give me a chance. Because of Lisa you closed your heart tightly. Isn't it!?" Indri asked loudly.
Due to her loud voice on the sidewalk, several motorcyclists or pedestrians turned their heads and looked at the woman.
"Keep your voice down!" Oscar said coldly.
"Answer my question!" Indri replied with rage.
Instead of answering Indri's question, Oscar kept silent. Even though the man was silent, Indri could guess that her prediction was correct. Oscar didn't want to give her a chance because he still had feelings for Lisa.
Indri knows that Oscar's heart is already filled by Lisa. And until then, Oscar would never let another woman fill his heart.
Indri knows that.
It was just that she would stop at nothing to try to get Oscar to open his heart.
"I accept you as you are, Oscar. I can take good care of your son, William. If you want, I can also leave my office to be a housewife! I will do everything!"
"…Please give me a chance." Indri asked again.
This time, Oscar's handsome face was filled with an unpleasant expression. He feels guilty for rejecting Indri's love confession. But he also didn't know what else to do.
In his heart, Oscar knew that there was no place for that woman. Not even a bit of it.
"I'm sorry," Oscar replied after a long time. He sighed and continued, "We can't be lovers as you wished. But if you want, we can still be good friends."
Oscar's words made Lisa even more able to breathe a sigh of relief. Her chest cavity was filled with a cold wind that usually could only be felt in spring. And her heart felt warm, like summer.
Even though Lisa herself wasn't sure that the reason Oscar refused Indri's love was because of her, she still felt relieved. At least, she heard with her own ears that Oscar and Indri had no special relationship other than co-workers.
Suddenly, Indri laughed loudly. "Oscar, hey, don't tell me you just approached me to melt my heart and help Lisa to solve her problems at work? So that I could find solid evidence to prove Lisa didn't plagiarize someone else's proposal!?"
Oscar was just silent and looked at Indri. Since the distance between Lisa, Oscar and Indri was not too close, Lisa couldn't see their faces clearly. She didn't know what kind of face the man was putting on.
But even so, Lisa could imagine the look on Oscar's face. He must have looked cold and flat.
After a long silence, Oscar finally made a sound. "Indri," he sighed, "I'm sorry. If I said no, you definitely wouldn't believe me. Okay, I admit that I approached you because I wanted to ask your help to restore Lisa's good name at the office."
"I'm sorry that I did it all by taking advantage of you." Oscar continued slowly.
In the past, he thought of using his power and name to get Indri to submit and help him. But suddenly, he thought that Indri was a career woman who would not accept his request for help.
In the end, Oscar chose to approach Indri so that she would help him. He knew that his way was wrong, giving her false hope, but he really had no other way!
"Ah," Indri nodded his head slowly, "I understand now."
