The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 168

"At first, they were curious about Danu using drugs or maybe he was consuming alcohol. Turns out, he didn't. I think public opinion will turn to 'who made the novelist and soloist who wrote such sad poetry to do such a terrible thing?'".
"It seems that it won't be far from a girl problem. He seems single, but who knows?".
Someone took the TV remote and turned off the infotainment broadcast that Aruna was watching.
Aruna accidentally found the viral video that was discussed by that infotainment. At first, she was just looking for entertainment. While waiting for someone who was having a meeting with Surya and people from his company.
Aruna immediately ran to the bathroom and locked herself when she found out that it was Hendra who turned off the television. She was afraid that the blue-eyed man couldn't control himself. Knowing that Hendra had a syndrome that made him very different.
"I won't be angry. Come out.. Obey my request. Come out, Aruna". This man knocked on the bathroom door slowly.
"I won't do stupid things like what I did at that time. Believe me.. Come on. Come out!". He asked one more time.
Aruna opened the bathroom door. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Hendra.
"I'm sorry.. I..". Aruna stammered. She apologized.
"Please, Hendra. Don't be angry..". Aruna was scared.
"Look at me. I'm trying to suppress my anger as much as I can. I won't repeat my stupid behavior. I know that no matter what, you guys..". Hendra received a hug before he finished talking.
"I will try for two years according to our agreement. I won't make a bond with anyone before it's over. You can keep my promise, Hendra.. You know I'm a consistent person". Those words didn't calm Hendra's heart. This man immediately let go of his woman's embrace. He chose to leave without looking back. He walked out of Aruna's room in a hurry.
_Oh my God, what did I do?! Is he going to sleep again like at that time?_ Aruna couldn't just do nothing.
She quickly followed the footsteps of the man in front of him. Aruna needed to know where Hendra would go.
That man took the elevator to the fourth floor and Aruna ran up the stairs. She hoped to reach the fourth floor at the same time. This sick girl was quite tired. She didn't find Hendra.

But, she didn't give up. She kept looking in every corner of the room on the fourth floor.
Until finally, she found one of the rooms with 'psychiatry' written on it where two people were communicating. Hendra and that woman. The woman who spontaneously made the brown eyes glow with anger.
~~~
"If you feel this place doesn't suit you, it's easy.. Make Hendra change. Change the love that Hendra has for you. If necessary, make that feeling disappear. The faster you'll be free".
"Love??". (Aruna)
"I feel like he's just so-so towards me". (Aruna)
"Ah. You really don't know?? This marriage happened faster because you were chosen by Hendra. Your marriage to him isn't just a marriage agreement between Mr. Lesmana and the elder. But more because he wants you".
"As long as his feelings for you are strong, he won't let go of what he has. A year, two years, maybe forever".
"I still believe in Hendra even though he's a difficult person to understand".
"Are you sure?".
"Hm.. May I know why he often meets you?".
"Because Hendra feels uncomfortable telling personal things to his wife. That's why he needs me all the time".
"Then how to make Hendra's feelings go away?".
"For someone who's always hopeful. First, make sure you reject him repeatedly, so that he realizes how much you don't want him. Second, bring him and make him close to another woman. I can help you if you need another woman's presence".
"I'll try the first way".
"Make sure you end it quickly. So that another person can immediately take your position".
~~~
"What kind of doctor is she?".
The door was pushed roughly by the tiny girl, Aruna.
_She tricked me. She hid Hendra's true state. Oh my God. How could she take advantage of Hendra's condition to get him?_
"Stop it!". Aruna's voice surprised the consultation session between doctor and patient.
"How did you get here?". Hendra was shocked.
"Hen, come with me! Get out of here right now". Aruna's command was full of anger.
"You're not allowed to interfere with the doctor's consultation activities with her patient". The doctor couldn't accept it.
A tiny hand flew and surprisingly landed on the cheek of the woman with the title Sp.KJ.
"Aruna, what are you doing?". Hendra was no longer surprised, but shocked. He wasn't sure about what he saw. His delicate woman could slap someone and the victim was his personal doctor.

"Ask this Dr. Nathasya M. Triyuono yourself". Aruna said sarcastically.
"What's going on?". Hendra was confused by the two women who were arguing.
"Oh.. Why are you silent, Doc? Tsk. Are you ashamed to admit it?". Aruna urged her.
"Come on, Hendra. Let's get out!". Aruna pulled her husband's hand. The blue-eyed man was still trying to understand the situation.
"He's in need of help, Miss?". Nathasya interrupted, holding Mahendra's other hand.
"How dare you hold my husband's arm. Get out of my way!". Aruna snapped.
"What's going on, Aruna?". Hendra's words were ignored.
"My husband doesn't deserve to be treated by a doctor who hopes that she can act as another woman for him. He's too honorable!". Aruna pushed away Nathasya's hand. She struggled to pull Hendra, who was still confused.
"Hen.. Why don't you move?!".
"I'm just confused why you're angry like this".
"I can explain that later. Most importantly, let's get out of here right now!".
"I want to know it right now". The blue-eyed pleaded.
"Okay. If you don't want to listen to me. I'll get out of here. Please tell about your extraordinary personal things with Dr. Nathasya".
"Hey.. Hey.. That's not what I meant". The husband was following his wife out of the psychiatric room. Suddenly, his wife stopped. She turned to look at him, then grabbed his arm. The woman named Aruna pulled his arm in a huff.
"You should no longer use the services of Dr. Nathasya. Stop using her as your personal doctor right now".
"I can't do it without a reason". Hendra was still curious. He triggered Aruna's emotions.
"Huh.. I'm too lazy to discuss it. Do you choose me or her?? If you choose to keep her, don't expect your breakfast".
"Breakfast? Your lips?!".
"Yes! What else?!".
..
This girl looked away but her hands still gripped her husband tightly.
Her eyes were slowly distracted by the mirror in front of her. In the past, the man beside her was an analogy for an imported branded product. Meanwhile, she was just a tiny local ethnic accessory with standard characteristics. At first, the branded one looked stiff, rough, and cold. He scolded her for accidentally daydreaming about the handsome face from the elevator mirror of Wenceslas Ritz hotel.
Now, the imported brand product was quietly observing her. He didn't realize that Aruna was looking at him from the mirror. Aruna was almost not sure she could get this close to Mahendra.
"Hmm..". Both spontaneously spoke at the same time.
"You go first..". Hendra exclaimed, letting his woman speak first.
"No, you first..". Same with Hendra, Aruna also let him.
"Okay, I'll go first..". Hendra said.
"There's good news for you. You can go home tomorrow. But it seems there's something unpleasant that you have to go through".
"What is it?". This girl asked, slowly starting to look at her husband.
"I want to ask your permission. Do you want..". That man stopped for a moment.
"What? Just go on. If I can help, why not??". Lesmana's daughter was curious.
"So, one of the companies under the Wenceslas Group encountered a problem. The agreement at the closed meeting concluded that we should appear to the public. Honestly, I don't agree. Unfortunately, I have no other choice. My team needs a way to divert attention". Hendra explained slowly about what he meant.
"Hen.. Hm.. I don't understand what you're talking about. Just tell me what I should do". This girl needed more understandable words. A simple command for a second year student.
"Do you want to accompany me in an exclusive interview with a TV station?". Mahendra asked.
"I don't mind coming. Unfortunately, I'm not good at talking". She had been on a talk show on a TV station. It was only two sessions with her friends on Magic Letter, including Damar, a newcomer soloist whose personal life was being explored at that time.
Mahendra must've still remembered it. The blue-eyed surprisingly came and sat in the front row. He looked at her carefully then ended up catching Aruna, locking that girl in one of the Nara&TV rooms.
"Who says you're not good at talking? Your way of speaking is more pleasant to be heard than mine. The founder of Magic Letter, the participant of several start-up seminars. Don't forget you were in that field".
This girl was silent remembering her past that she missed so much.
