Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Lisa and Oscar had returned to Jakarta, Indonesia. The heat of the tropical country greeted them both upon arrival at Cengkareng Airport. The morning sky that was always gloomy and dark had now changed to a bright sky.

As usual, Lisa had returned to work in her office the day after she set foot in Indonesia. Likewise with Oscar, the golden-haired man had to catch up with all the company's targets he left behind.

When Lisa arrived at the Colors Advertising building, she strolled into the finance department to find a tall, thin woman talking to one of her coworkers. The woman looked strange to her. At first, she thought the woman was a new employee of Colors Advertising. But when Lisa noticed the way she spoke and the expression on her face like a mother cat on a rampage looking for her lost kitten, she was immediately amazed.

"Which of you is Lisa Soewandi!?" The tall woman shouted fiercely. Her hands rested on her hips while her eyes swept around her.

The tall, thin woman didn't look very beautiful like Clara but the aura she emitted was charming and dignified like an independent boss lady. At first glance, when viewed from a distance, the woman looked like a Sofia Latjuna, an Indonesian film player. Her shoulder length hair hung down her shoulders. Her black blazer combined with a white shirt and matching pants made the tall skinny woman look more like a model.

One of Lisa's coworkers then pointed at her. The tall, thin woman turned around, looked at Lisa who was standing dumbfounded. She narrowed her eyes, her gaze towards Lisa looked very sharp and full of jealousy.

"So you're Lisa?" The tall woman asked sharply. Her eyes were still fixed on Lisa.

"Yes, I am Lisa, are you looking for me?" Lisa replied a little hesitant and confused to see the tall woman.

The tall woman stepped quickly towards her and then slapped her face without saying much. She looked at Lisa with a look full of anger then shouted, "You bastard homewrecker!"

"Huh, homewrecker?" Lisa said to herself, confused. She rubbed her cheeks, which were flushed from the sudden slap from the woman she didn't know.

"Who are you?! How come you dare to accuse me as a homewrecker!? Do I even know you???" Lisa asked in a high voice.

"Don't pretend you don't know!" The tall woman raised her right palm and prepared to land a hard slap on Lisa's cheek but Lisa was already grabbing her hand.

"Sorry, but if you came here just to find trouble with me then I will have to call security and kick you out of this office!" Lisa exclaimed firmly. Her rage started to burn.

"I've seen too many immoral women who dare to snatch a man from a woman, but never before have I met someone so great at making excuses and insisting that she is innocent like you!" The tall woman snapped, her beautiful eyes glaring at Lisa's confused face.

"What do you mean!? I really don't understand! Did you get the wrong person? Since when have I snatched another woman's man? Please explain to me why you accused me as a homewrecker!" Lisa frowned back.

"Don't pretend you are naive! You were the one who took my husband right!?" The tall woman replied stubbornly. Her voice grew increasingly booming, attracting the attention of all finance department employees.

"Hah? Taking your husband?" Lisa replied while changing her speaking style to be more relaxed and harsh. "Who are you accusing me of? Where's the proof that shows I took your man!"

The tall, thin woman was even more annoyed by Lisa's response that didn't show respect and shame. The anger in her heart burned even more until her face radiated an unstoppable rage. The tall woman gritted her teeth and said, "If it weren't for your relationship with Rangga, you wouldn't be able to enter this company! Who do you think you are? You just worked for a few months but somehow you immediately became a finance manager!?"

Hearing the words just now made Lisa think and surprised, "Do you know Rangga!?"

"Heh, how dare you call Rangga without his proper title! You are definitely the shameless woman who took Rangga from me!" The tall woman replied in a curt and sharp voice.

"Wait, what's your relationship with Rangga?"

"I am his wife, Julian's birth mother! Who else do you think I am!?" 

Hearing the statement from the tall, thin woman that looked like a model then made Lisa think of something. She looked at the woman with the stern and dignified face then said, "You're Maria!?"

Maria snorted, still staring at Lisa with a sharp, condescending gaze. "You even know my name, let alone my family's disgrace!"

The atmosphere inside the finance department's room was suddenly quiet and tense. This was the first time Maria Damayanti, the woman who was allegedly Rangga's wife, had come to the man's office. The apparition clearly made all the employees in the room shocked.

"Oh so that's Mr. Rangga's wife?" One of Lisa's co-workers asked.

"I thought Mr. Rangga was single, I swear," another of Lisa's colleagues replied.

The two women who were staring at each other suddenly fell silent on the spot. Lisa's tongue then suddenly clenched, her body locked in place, she didn't know how to act next. Not long after, her cell phone vibrated.

Lisa took her vibrating cell phone, and without looking at the screen, she immediately hung up the call but she pressed the wrong button!

"Hello, Lisa? What if we eat together at a restaurant near your office later in the afternoon? Do you want to go?" The voice from across was Oscar's. 

However, there was no answer from Lisa. 

"Lisa? Hello? Can you hear my voice?"

"Lisa, are you okay?"

No matter how loudly Oscar yelled from across, there was still no response from Lisa. When Oscar was about to hang up the call, suddenly he heard the hoarse voice of a woman from across the street saying, "Lisa listen to me, I know all of your past. I actually don't really care about your boring life but I want you to quickly clean up your desk and get out of this office forever! I don't want to see you in the same office with Rangga, don't you try to take my husband again!"

The man was surprised from the other side of the phone, and not long after, he hung up the call.

Meanwhile, Lisa and Maria were having a big fight. The two women both defended their opinion.

"Maria, isn't Julian Rangga's adopted son?" Lisa asked, looking doubtful.

Maria snorted, she was still looking down at Lisa. "Rangga will do anything to convince all women that he is still single. He even used his own biological child as a bait!"

Maria's statement just now seemed to turn into a bullet that pierced Lisa's head until she fell on the cold hard floor. Lisa didn't think that her childhood friend would lie to her all this time.

Lisa's chest felt tight and sore. She did not think that Rangga had betrayed her. She really felt betrayed. She couldn't stomach how the man who helped her whenever she was in need turned out to be a big liar!

Not far from where Lisa and Maria clashed, Riani looked at the two of them with a sly and evil look. She wanted to take the opportunity in this tight spot to get Lisa out of the Colors Advertising office. Without saying much, Riani immediately approached Maria and said, "Sis Maria, if I may tell you, Lisa is so arrogant! She rarely apologizes even when she made a great mistake in this office. She had just worked for no more than 5 years but she already got appointed as a financial manager? Strange, don't you think? I think Lisa deliberately teased Mr. Rangga so that she would quickly get promoted!"

Hearing the incitement from Riani just now made Maria's anger even more unstoppable. Her eyes grew bigger, her breath raging. "You dirty bitch! How dare you steal my husband!" She snapped.

Without much thought, Maria immediately pushed Lisa until she fell on the floor then punched her so that Lisa's forehead was covered with blood. Unexpectedly, Maria was a woman who liked to fight just like Lisa.

When Lisa was about to return a fist from Maria, she tried to stand up on a nearby table and then clenched her right fist. The fist was about to roll over Maria's face but the big and strong hand suddenly stopped her.

"Stop it! I ask you to stop!" The man shouted as he gripped Lisa's fist.
