Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

The sun was just emerging from the gaps of the extremely tall skyscrapers. The UV rays produced by the sun in the morning are so beneficial that they can even reach the bottom of the asphalt streets of Jakarta, Indonesia. The white clouds were running away from each other in opposite directions, opening a gap for the sky to reveal its bright blue color, indicating that this morning was very bright. This morning, the two men who were already inside the white car that had just walked towards GF Corp’s company parking lot on the 2nd floor were Gifer and Haris. The two of them now got out of the car and walked gallantly towards the office.

“Gif, are you sure you’re going to check the CCTV today?” Haris asked.

“Yes, I have to check it first, just in case we find evidence of someone changing or messing with our business data issues.” Gifer replied.

“You don’t suspect that the one who did the manipulation was Sekar?” Instantly Gifer stopped his steps and looked at Haris.

“What are you talking about huh? It can’t be Sekar, I understand Sekar’s character and attitude which is not suspicious at all, I’ve trusted her for a long time.” Gifer said dismissing the bad thoughts Haris had just thrown out and then went back to walking as usual until they reached the front of the elevator and pressed the button. Soon the doors opened, revealing an empty elevator room. Immediately Gifer and Haris stepped into the elevator. Haris resumed his conversation that had been cut off.

“But it could be, Gifer. Sekar is the secretary, she could be the one who changed it.” Haris still insisted that the one who changed the data was Sekar herself and Gifer who did not care about what his best friend said which he thought was very absurd.

“No, Haris. Don’t you think Sekar would want me to fire her immediately if she did that? Sekar still has younger siblings to send to school, she really needs a job as a secretary to support her younger siblings, so I don’t think it’s Sekar. Stop accusing Sekar, let’s just check on the CCTV who the real culprit is. But before that, I will wait for Mr. Kevin. He said he’ll be here.” Gifer explained that Haris should not only blame one-sidedly, but should be accompanied by evidence.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Alright, I’m also curious who the real culprit is, hopefully it’s not from the people closest to us.” Gifer nodded obediently.

Ting!

The elevator doors opened as they reached their destination floor. The two men immediately entered Gifer’s room which was already very neat because it was cleaned and tidied up by the office OB. Don’t forget the black coffee that was already available on Gifer’s desk to accompany him to work.

“Huh… we finally arrived.” Haris said slamming his body on the sofa in Gifer’s room.

As usual, Gifer sat in his office chair while checking some data that he had to double check, especially the original income data, which was given to him by Sekar yesterday. Although at that time it was a physical file that Mr. George had allegedly decreased, it was different from the original file that was still on the flasdisk that Gifer had just opened on his laptop. Gifer automatically widened his eyes in disbelief.

All the data was still very much the same as when Sekar originally sent it, and it was even the same as what Sekar had given him yesterday before he signed it. Haris, who saw the change in Gifer’s face, was curious about what his friend saw.

“Gif, what’s wrong with you?”

“Ris, come here. You’ll definitely be surprised by seeing this.” Haris walked over to Gifer and stood behind the cute boy. Gifer started to show what he saw on the laptop.

“Take a look, Ris. This is the data that Sekar sent to me in the form of a file, I remember very well that at that time there was a financial section that reported, Sekar only gave it to me. The physical printouts are the same, the file I signed yesterday was also this file, but for some reason Mr. George said that all the data was declining? And he gave back to Sekar the data file that had decreased.” Gifer explained to Haris.

“Then, what about your signature, Gif? Did you check it on the degraded data file that Sekar gave you?” Gifer tried to remember it.

“There was, I remember very well, there was also my signature.”

“That means your signature has been forged, Gif.” While the two of them were puzzling over the signature issue, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside.

Knock Knock!

“Please come in!” Gifer ordered. The person immediately entered, and it turned out to be Mr. Kevin. Gifer immediately stood up from his sitting position and bowed slightly to respect his elders, as well as Haris.

“Ah, Mr. Kevin, please sit down, let’s talk on the sofa.” Gifer said politely. Mr. Kevin smiled and walked straight to the sofa and sat there, followed by Haris and Gifer.

“Gifer, what about Mr. George? Have you found evidence of who changed the file?” The questioner shook his head.

“Not yet, Mr. Kevin. But, Haris said it would be better if we check the CCTV, just in case there is an intruder who entered this company and changed the revenue data.”

“Then we should look at the CCTV in the finance department. If that doesn’t work and there isn’t anyone from the outside pacing around, then it’s not someone from here. It’s a ploy at George to stop working with you, Gif.” Said Mr. Kevin, Gifer nodded obediently.

“Yes, Mr. Kevin. Let’s take a look at the CCTV.”

They went to the computer room that viewed the CCTV replay of yesterday’s incident. There they did not see any strangers entering the office. There was nothing suspicious there either.

“As I thought, this is George’s own doing in changing all the data and canceling the cooperation. Let it go, he’ll lose himself.” Mr. Kevin said lightly. As for Gifer, he had clenched his hands into fists.

“Aissh, even though Mr. George himself begged me to cooperate with me, when I agreed, this is what he got in return? Watch out George!” Gifer’s eyes were already showing his anger. Haris tried to calm him down by stroking Gifer’s shoulder.

“Calm down, Gif. The client is not just George, let him disappear now, the important thing is that his disappearance does not harm this company at all.” Haris said. Gifer turned to Haris and looked at the hand that was already on his shoulder.

“Yes, you’re right, Ris. Missing one, there will be a thousand clients who will work with me.” Gifer said with emphasis.
