I Love You, Pak HRD Chapter 1 Part 1

"Get a job, Nad. It's okay to grieve, but it doesn't go on forever. It's the same if you don't accept the destiny of God who took your father. By working, at least you don't think about the deceased too much."

The magic sentence from Agung, my school friend was what made me rise from suspended animation. My world just collapsed after being left by Papa, one month ago.

Eating, just being reminded. My activities at home are only filled with crying and crying, I remember Papa every day. And unfortunately, Papa is an only child. So I don't have anyone I can call Uncle, Aunt or whoever it is. Grandpa on Papa's side It's been a long time since I've been around and...and my Mama, passed away five years ago. Just like Papa, my Mama is an isolated woman.

Oooh, what a terrible life my life seems to be destined to be alone.

I who used to live with Papa, suddenly darkened my world when I heard the news that Papa died in a single accident.

But, let it be. Maybe this is destiny from the Almighty. Now I will try to rise.

And here I am now, in front of a growing property company. Three days ago I submitted a job application with a position as an Admin in this office. And Alhamdulillah, today I was called. Hopefully I pass the selection.

Thanks to Agung who has informed me of this vacancy.

I entered. Arriving in front of one of the special room for employee recruitment, it seemed, I saw that there were already many applicants sitting waiting. More or less ten people. Three men and seven women including me. All the same, formally dressed as job applicants, black and white.

I feel insecure when I saw six other women dressed beautifully and perfectly. Meanwhile, I only wear minimal make-up, the important thing is that my face is not pale.

The six women also seem to have a lot of work experience. And again, that thought made me feel down. I have absolutely no work experience because after graduating from high school three years ago, I wasn't going anywhere. I was just at home taking care of Papa who is a retired soldier. . If Papa is there to take care of the project, I just stay at home. I'm not going anywhere.

But I won't give up. I remember Papa's message to me that we can't lose before the war.

One by one the applicants were called into the HRD office. Maybe I was the last one.

One thing I want to say is that the recruitment process in this company starts from the first interview and then the psychological test. It's weird. although I've never experienced it, but what I hear from my friends who are already working, isn't the psychological test first and then the interview with HRD?

Yes but never mind. What can I do? I don't own this company.

"Nadia Annisa Wardani?"

My name was called. My heart was pounding tremendously. I swear, I've never had an interview before. If Agung said, when asked by HRD, don't answer very honestly. You have to lie a little to get accepted into work.

Yes, but do I have to lie? Papa always reminded me to always be honest so that life is not destroyed (a little imitate what Babe Benjamin said in the film Si Doel, a schoolboy, because my Papa really likes the legendary soap opera.)

Ah, what a fool. Anyway, I will answer the questions from HRD later as best I can.

"Good morning."

Hey, it's still early right?

"Morning. Please come in."

This mini room atmosphere is very tense. The room temperature is suddenly cold even though I was too hot before I entered. Even though the HRD is handsome, but why do I feel like I'm in prison?

"Please, sit."

I wrung my hands, trying to make my smile normal so it wouldn't look too much in the eyes of this handsome HRD.

The HRD that I read from his name tag, named Rendra, has asked me various questions. Most of the questions are trapping. You know how difficult the interviewer's questions are, right?

Just one more question.

"Why do you want to join this company?"

Because I want money.

But Agung said, I have to answer this trick question with a little spice of lies. But seriously, I can't lie, even a little.

"For making money, sir."

"If you're just looking for money, you don't have to be in this company right? You can do it in other places too."

Dead, checkmate, true what he said.

Papa, help me!

"Yes, because I want a career too, sir. I've always wanted to work in an office. And in my opinion, this company I want to use as a place to develop my career." I replied with a grin as wide as a horse's.

Whether I'm too innocent or stupid, the answer just slipped out of my mouth.

I don't care whether I'll be accepted or not. Even if I don't pass the interview selection, I can still become an online motorcycle taxi driver later.

"Who do you live with? "

"Alone sir."

"Your parents? "

Why is this a very personal question?

"My mother died five years ago, sir, and my Papa just one month ago left me."

I saw the expression on Mr. Rendra's face changed, "Sorry, sorry."

I smiled "It's okay, sir. I'm sure my Papa Mama is in a better place."

Lie... even though a month ago you were like a living corpse, Nadia.

"That's it. You can wait for the psychological test outside."

So this is the process? Have I passed the interview stage selection?

But that question just stuck in my mind of course.

"Fine, sir, thank you."

And for the first time, we shook hands.

️...

That girl, so innocent.

Making Rendra incessantly daydream about the girl named Nadia.

Every time she was asked, the girl would answer honestly as she was without being made up. Her makeup was also very innocent. Unlike other female applicants who wore Kim Kardashian-style make-up, what was judged by this company if the recruitment of employees was brain, not physical. Yes, appearance is necessary, but not too much like that.

"Thick make-up, expensive appearance if the brain is empty, what's the point?"

That is what Jerry Andrean, the owner of this company, always reminds his subordinates. At the same time, the motto of this company.

That girl, had managed to grab Rendra's attention... a little... but it worked.

And now Rendra has stepped into a special room for psychological tests for prospective employees. In his hands there is a pile of psychological test files that are quite thick for each prospective applicant.

The whole room, which had been buzzing with the giggling sounds of the older women, suddenly fell silent when Rendra came in. Again, the Kardashian Family twins admired Rendra's handsomeness from a far. Except for Nadia, of course. As an ordinary woman, she was also amazed by Rendra's good looks, but Nadia was a girl who are good at behaving... not overdoing it like the six women.

"I'll give you 30 minutes. Do you bring your own pens?" Rendra said after handing the psychological test sheet to the ten prospective employees.

Everyone nodded.

"Okay, just do it. Starting from now."

Everyone was immediately busy with their respective test sheets. Rendra decided to wait while standing. He watched the ten people one by one.

And his gaze stopped for a long time at a girl named Nadia.

This time Nadia managed to grab his attention again. Rendra could clearly see how confused Nadia was in doing the problem but she still tried to stay calm and didn't ask left or right.

Rendra was so engrossed in watching Nadia that he didn't realize that thirty minutes had passed.

"Okay, time's up."

All prospective applicants came forward to hand over the test sheet to Rendra and sat back down.

"I will check this first. If for example someone passes, we will call again via telephone. Make sure your number remains active. If within the next three days someone has not been called, it means you did not pass the selection. Do you understand?"

Again, everyone nodded... including Nadia.

"Okay, thank you for following this selection process and all of you may go home. Once again I remind you that the cellphone number remains active for the next three days."

One by one they left the room, Nadia was last in line.

"Thank you sir."

Of the ten people, only Nadia thanked Rendra before she left the room. This made Rendra stunned. God slipped one woman who knew manners among the nine other people who just left the room.

"Ooh, yes you're welcome. Be careful on the road."

The girl smiled and again, little by little Rendra's attention seemed to be sucked in by everything for Nadia.

That girl is different.

"Besides brains, this company also needs employees who know attitude. Because no matter how smart a person is, if the attitude is zero, there's no point at all."

"Fix, this is Mr. Jerry's ideal employee. But I don't know what her psychological test results are like. I hope they can match and she can pass."

Because what Rendra didn't know, his little heart was already fascinated by Nadia.

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

The rain in Detroit was slick with grime when my family finally came to fetch me. They didn't want a reunion; they wanted a sacrificial lamb to marry into the Kaufman empire to save their failing business. I thought I was just being sold off, but the limo ride ended under a dark overpass where six hired thugs were waiting with chains. My own sister had ordered them to "break my spirit" so I’d be a shaking, pathetic mess by the time I reached the altar. They called me "Detroit trash" and sprayed air freshener when I sat on their leather seats. My stepmother wanted a video of me begging for my life, and my father was ready to trade me like a used car to a man everyone called a "vegetable." They expected a submissive country girl, unaware that I was a high-level "cleaner" who could snap a radius bone before they could even scream. When I finally reached the Kaufman estate, I found my fiancé, Barron, slumped in a wheelchair, drooling and silent. But as soon as the doors closed, the "invalid" grabbed my wrist with a grip of iron and whispered a command that changed everything. I didn't understand why my own blood was so desperate to see me destroyed. What had I ever done to deserve a hit squad and a forced marriage to a man they thought was a corpse? But Barron isn't a vegetable, and I'm not a victim. We just touched down at the Moon family gala in a matte-black helicopter, and as the doors slide open, the "broken" bride is about to show them exactly what happens when you throw away the wrong daughter. "If we're going to crash a party," Barron whispered, his eyes burning with lethal clarity, "we should make an entrance."

I sat on the edge of the examination table, the crinkle of the sanitary paper sounding like thunder in the sterile room. The doctor didn't even look at me as he confirmed the news: the pregnancy was over. My husband, Keyon, didn't answer my call. He just sent an automated text: "In a meeting." When I returned to our cold mansion, I found his iPad glowing with a message from his "muse," Katina. He was throwing her a secret gala tonight-on our third wedding anniversary. He told her he couldn't wait to escape the "boring" and "draining" atmosphere I created at home. Keyon didn't stumble in until 3 AM, smelling of Katina's perfume with a smear of red on his collar. When I handed him the divorce papers, he laughed in my face. He called me a "glorified housekeeper" with no skills and no future, promising I'd be back in three days begging for a subway ticket. He even bet his friends ten thousand dollars that I wouldn't survive a week without his name. He had his assistant cancel my credit cards and block my gate access before I even reached the end of the driveway. He wanted me to starve. He wanted me to crawl. He sat in his office, mocking the "desperate" woman who pawned her three-million-dollar wedding ring for scrap metal just to pay for a meal. I stood on the rainy curb, watching the man I had protected for three years treat my life like trash. He didn't know about the ultrasound I just threw in the bin. He didn't know that while he was calling me "dull," I was the one secretly writing the code that kept his billion-dollar empire from collapsing. As I slid into a cheap Uber, I opened a hidden, encrypted app on my phone. The screen refreshed to a dashboard for an account Keyon didn't know existed. The balance was ten figures long-the accumulated wealth of "Solaris," the world's most elusive tech genius. Keyon thinks he just evicted a parasite, but he's about to find out he just declared war on the only person who can hit "delete" on his entire life.
