The Billionaire’s Surrogate Wife

“Finally we can come back here again, Ms. Agatha. Mr. Samuel and I hope that in the next two months, Ms. Agatha will feel at home in Indonesia and also in Palma.”

Randa in Samuel’s room gave a warm welcome to Agatha who came back to Indonesia. While discussing the project schedule, the man occasionally made jokes to lighten the mood.

“Thank you very much for the warm welcome, Mr. Randa and Mr. Samuel. Of course I am very happy to be back here and working on projects with great people like you two,” Agatha replied with a smile. His eyes never moved from the figure of the man in the gray suit, who was none other than Samuel. Indeed, the man she really wanted to meet in this company.

Samuel gave a smile that was no less friendly. After Randa, it was her turn this time to speak.

“I hope that during the project construction and supervision process, no significant obstacles or difficulties will be found. Even if later there are problems or there is something that needs to be consulted, don’t hesitate to ask for help from me and also Mr. Randa or other people in charge.”

“Thank you still,” nodded Agatha. “I am very happy for the help. Later, if there are difficulties in the future, I will ask for help.” Agathan then tidied up the files he had brought with him. The woman looks ready to rise from her seat. “In that case, I’m sorry to go straight on with the assigned tasks. Next time, if I have free time, I would like to invite Mr. Samuel and Mr. Randa to have dinner together. I hope this offer will be accepted.”

“With pleasure, Mrs. Agatha. Whenever you invite me, if the time is right, Samuel and I make sure to come,” said Randa kindly. Then the man got up, intending to accompany Agatha to the door of the room.

A moment opened the door, coinciding with the arrival of Ariana. Had glanced at each other and smiled, Ariana then continued walking towards her husband’s desk. While Randa again closed the door of the room and then returned following sitting in its original place.

“Loh, why are you here? Have you finished checking it?” asked Samuel from her seat.

“It took a long time to finish. Earlier, I was able to pick up Kalvin for a while. Uh, Mama and I were even invited to stay at his house.”

“Yeah, just let it be. It’s already Mama’s habit, right. By the way, have you eaten yet?”

Ariana shook her head.

“Not yet. Want to eat with you, honey.”

“Okay, I’ll take you home, let’s just eat out, how about that?”

“Is it polite for you two to be intimate in front of me? How can you not be invited to lunch too,” protested Randa, who had not been recognized by Ariana and Samuel.

“Oh, you want to be invited?” said Ariana. The woman laughed at Randa whose face turned sullen because she felt annoyed.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Yes. You must bring me, Esmeralda. Besides, as a form of thanks too.”

Ariana’s forehead also reflexively frowned. He wondered for what purpose to thank the husband’s cousin.

“Thank you?”

Randi nodded.

“Yes, please. Thank you because I have taken care of your husband.”

“What’s Samuel doing with all the guards?”

“Yes, it’s okay. But, it’s important to take care of it and keep it away from the disturbances of the former.”

Samuel turned around. Glaring, the man gave a code so that Randa would not speak carelessly. He’s just lazy, Ariana will get angry or overthinking and accuse him of nonsense.

However, honey. As if taken in by the bait that Randa had just thrown, Ariana immediately cast a sharp gaze. Waiting with great intent from Randa’s words that had been said earlier.

“What do you mean?”

“Didn’t you see the girl who just came out of the room?” asked Randa deliberately.

“That one? What’s wrong?”

“That’s Palma’s new client. Her name is Agatha Selvia.”

“Relict!” Samuel clicked. The man again gave a warning to his cousin to stop his chatter. “You don’t need to mess around. Later —”

“Samuel!” interrupted Ariana on purpose. He became exasperated and even thought that his husband was disturbing Randa, who was seriously telling a story. “You shut up first, okay. Let Randa finish what she said,” Ariana pleaded. Then he looked back at Randa, waiting for her husband’s cousin to continue the conversation. “Hurry up, Ran. When you talk, don’t be half-hearted.”

“The point is, the woman whose name was Agatha was once a special person in Samuel’s heart. She was her husband’s former favorite.”

Hearing Randa’s explanation, Ariana immediately glanced at her husband. Raising an eyebrow, he confirmed Randa’s words himself.

“So, that pretty girl was your ex?”

Samuel nodded casually. Not intending to deny what the wife asked either.

“Yes, Randa is right. Agatha is my ex.”

“First love, first girlfriend, and don’t rule out the first woman Samuel kissed.”

Randa stirred. Indeed, his hobby has always been provoking. It’s not satisfied if the one who is provoked is not angry or provoked by what he says.

Meanwhile, Samuel immediately threw the pen that was in front of her at Randa. Asking the man to stop babbling and provoking Ariana.

“No need to fish!”

Seconds later Samuel got up. Walk around and then ask Ariana to get out of the room.

“Let’s just go for lunch now. If you stay here too long, you’ll be poisoned by Randa’s words.”

“No wonder I can’t work. It turns out that in the office there is a partner from the past.”

Samuel sighed and looked at Ariana in horror at the same time. He was sure, his wife must have been consumed by Randa’s words.

“It’s not like that, honey. You don’t have to listen to what Randa has to say. It’s impossible for me to mess around.”

“Lie!”

“For God’s sake. Even in the office and field it’s Randa who takes care of everything. That means he is partnered with Agatha. Not me.”

Ariana stared into Samuel’s face. Trying to find a gap in the lie in her husband’s black bead. Until he believes Samuel is honest with his words.

“Okay, I believe it. But, if you get caught doing all kinds of things, there’s no apology for you.”

Samuel nodded. Again reaching out, to then take Ariana out of the room. Leaving Randa to laugh at Samuel’s helplessness in front of Ariana.

In the evening everything returned to normal. Ariana was no longer annoyed. Exactly at half past eight, after eating dinner, Samuel seemed to accompany his wife watching television while relaxing on the couch. The man even helped massage Ariana’s feet and hands alternately.

“Are your legs really tired?” asked Samuel while continuing to massage Ariana’s feet.

“That’s great. I think I’m too much of a walker.”

“Besides, instead of going around the complex, why not take a leisurely walk on the treadmill?”

“The sensation is different, Ken. If you go around the complex, you can greet the neighbors. So, you don’t feel tired. It’s better to walk in the morning than in the evening. The air is cooler. Next time, I’ll just try to walk in the morning,” said the woman.

“Weekend tomorrow. I’ll accompany you later.”

“Seriously?”

Samuel nodded.

“Seriously, is it. What’s so hard about accompanying your favorite wife.”

Ariana smiled happily. Without hesitation, he immediately gave Samuel a hug. However, in the midst of her joy, Samuel’s cell phone rang. As before, the man immediately got up and then chose to leave the room to receive the call.

Ariana, who was irritated and suspicious, took the initiative to walk towards the bedroom door, then eavesdropped through the crack on the door, what her husband was actually talking about behind the phone so that it seemed secret and afraid that other people would hear it.

“Meet up now? Yes, really. Where do you want to meet?”

Ariana could clearly hear what Samuel was saying. I don’t know who her husband was talking to. What is certain, from what he said, Ariana could conclude that Samuel would have a meeting with someone tonight.

“In a regular cafe? No problem. Then, just meet up there. There’s also a lot to talk about.”

As soon as she saw Samuel who was about to end her conversation, Ariana hurriedly stepped back towards the sofa. Sitting there as before, as if not hearing or eavesdropping on Samuel’s previous conversation.

“Honey, I’m going out for a while. You’re okay, I’ll stay.”

Ariana looked up, of course the woman immediately asked.

“Where do you want to go? It’s really tall.”

“You met Randa for a while. There is something you want to discuss,” explained the man.

“Tumben met outside. Usually it was also Randa who came to the house.”

Samuel shrugged her shoulders.

“Yeah, I don’t know. She wanted to meet him outside. But, it’s really only a minute.”

Ariana nodded, then motioned for Samuel to leave. After believing that her husband had driven his car, Ariana hurriedly grabbed her cell phone. Seconds were also looking for Randa’s contact to be contacted.

“Hello, Ariana. What’s up?”

“Where are you Randy?”

“Me? Yes, at home. What’s wrong?”

“Are you sure you’re home? No longer outside?” asked Ariana to make sure.

“I’m at home, Ariana. I just got home from work. What’s wrong with that? Do you need my help? Or what?”

“No. I’m just asking. If so, thanks.”

Without the need to wait for an answer from Randa, Ariana immediately ended the call. For a moment he was silent. Think to yourself. If Randa is indeed at home, then who is her husband meeting tonight?
