140 Back to business again

After deciding to start his business in Geneva, Areez finally found a place to live according to his taste. A house not far from Lake Geneva became Areez’s choice after he rejected several house recommendations given by Aldrich.

Areez chose that place because Lake Geneva was one of the silent witnesses of his unexpected encounter with Suri a few weeks ago.

“Everything is ready, Areez.”

Areez, who was looking at Lake Geneva from the balcony, immediately turned to the back where Aldrich had just called him.



“I’ve got all of them, a total of fifteen similar sites,” said Aldrich again.

Areez raised his eyebrows. “Fifteen sites? Are you kidding me?!”

“You can see it for yourself if you don’t believe it,” Aldrich replied quietly as he turned his laptop towards Areez who was walking towards him.

Areez immediately grabbed Aldrich’s laptop, his hazel eyes widened when he saw what Aldrich had found.

“Fix, it looks like your guess is right. Neither Christian nor Jack Clarke, neither of them knew this kind of site existed,” said Aldrich again. “And all these sites are linked to one IP address which is still in this country, but I haven’t been able to find out who owns that IP address.”

.....

“Why haven’t you been able to find out who the owner of that IP address is, Aldrich? Isn’t finding that IP address an easy job for you, huh?”

Aldrich shook his head slowly. “It’s easy, but this time it looks like I will need a little longer to find out who the owner of this IP address is. This person is much smarter than I thought.”

“I have a feeling that the person in charge of all of these sites is still related to the Clarke family, Aldrich.”

“What’s the reason you talk like that?” asked Aldrich quickly.

Areez slowly turned the laptop screen in his hand towards Aldrich. “Look at this.”



“Asher Cole, the adopted son of Jackson Patrick Clarke, is suspected of being the illegitimate child of Jackson Patrick Clarke with his illicit lover who is said to be a friend of his own wife, Marianne Clarke. And to cover up his rotten scandal, Jackson Patrick Clarke finally adopted him as an adopted child as he has always been. this is known to many people.” Aldrich read one of the hidden articles Areez had just discovered. “This article is unacceptable, Areez.”

“I know, that’s why we have to move fast,” Areez replied flatly. “The person who owns all these sites really wants the Clarke family’s image to be destroyed in the eyes of the public, this person wants to damage the good name of the Clarke family with these irresponsible rubbish scandals.”

“Then what should we do now?”

“Close to Suri,” Areez answered without hesitation.

“Damn it, I’m serious!”

“I’m serious too, Suri’s the only way to get closer to the family,” Areez said quietly. “Because it would be weird if I tried to find out about Jackson Clarke’s family, our relationship is just business partners. Jackson Clarke would be suspicious if I asked about his family.”

Alfred nodded slowly. “That’s right, Jackson Clarke would be suspicious of you.”

“That’s why I have to approach Suri, she’s the only way to know more about the family,” Areez said again. “At least with me helping them, Suri can forgive the mistakes I’ve made before.”

Aldrich pursed his lips. “Come back like the Areez Floyen asshole I used to know, Areez. Be confident Areez, smart Areez, strong Areez. Suri will definitely forgive you, especially if she knows what you’ve done for her family.”

Because Areez was silent, Aldrich chose to continue his main job. Starting a new business in a country so far from where he came from meant that Aldrich had to take it seriously, although the Floyen family’s wine business was well known in New Zealand and Australia, it was no guarantee of success in a new place. That’s why Aldrich and Areez had to be really focused if they wanted their business to succeed.

Seeing that Aldrich had returned to work made Areez finally do the same, he couldn’t possibly let his best friend work alone. After removing all thoughts of Suri from his head, Areez began to focus on his laptop following in Aldrich’s footsteps taking care of all the processes of sending ten thousand bottles of the best wine from his company to Geneva for promotional use, before starting the construction of his new winery in Geneva.

Actually, with Areez’s assets, he can build several factories at once without anyone’s help, but somehow suddenly this time Areez is looking for investors and the investor search ends at Muller Finance International which culminates in his meeting with Jackson Patrick Clarke who incidentally is the biological father from the girl who almost drove him crazy, Suri and his new rival Christian. At the beginning, when he learned about this astonishing fact, Areez wanted to run away, but after he thought with a cool head, Areez finally decided to continue his collaboration with Jackson Clarke. Areez believes that what he is currently going through with Jackson Clarke is part of a beautiful plan that God has made for him to correct all his wrongs in that man by holding Jackson Clarke’s youngest daughter captive for years.

Two hours passed so quickly, hunger began to overtake Aldrich who had not eaten since they returned to the apartment that became their temporary office while their new office was in the stage of installing a network and other security systems. Areez who is so crazy about CCTV and other technology wants his new office installed so that he can work safely and comfortably without any fear.

“I’m hungry, what do you want to eat, Areez?” asked Aldrich quietly to Areez who was still so serious with his laptop.

Silence, Areez did not answer Aldrich’s words. As usual, when Areez is focused on something, Areez will not pay attention to his surroundings.

Because he is already so hungry, Aldrich then closes Areez’s laptop, which ends with Areez’s loud screams that deafening his ears.

“I’m at work, you bastard!”

“I know,” replied Aldrich casually. “And now it’s time to eat, I’m so hungry. I want to order food, what do you want to eat?”

Ares took a deep breath. “You already know what my favorite food is, why do you have to ask again?”

“Sushi again? Oh no...I can turn into a Japanese person if I keep eating sushi. I’d like to order pasta for our lunch and you can’t argue.” Aldrich hastened his words when he saw Areez seemed to reject the idea of ??choosing their lunch menu today.

After saying that, Aldrich then walked away from Areez and started to contact the restaurant in the apartment lobby to order food, finally after almost three months of eating Suri’s favorite food. Today Aldrich had the opportunity to eat his favorite food, the food he usually eats when he is in Auckland.

“Please make sure everything is warm when you send it and one more thing, I want extra cheese on every menu that I mentioned earlier,” Aldrich said politely before finally hanging up the phone with the restaurant cashier who for almost two weeks had been the person who always takes their orders.

“Satisfied?” Areez said sarcastically at Aldrich who had returned to his seat opposite him.

Aldrich laughed amusedly. “Of course, after eating only low-fat foods for two weeks I really need a heavy meal.”

Ares shook his head. “You eater.”

“How about we recruit a maid, Areez? It would be nice if we had a maid.” Surprisingly Aldrich gave Areez the idea to recruit a maid.

“No, the maid’s presence will break my concentration. I’m not comfortable living with strangers, after all the house cleaning provided by the apartment is more than enough for both of us,” Areez refused quickly, I don’t want Suri to think anything bad about me if he knows we hired a young woman in this place.

“Oh Jesus...”

“You know that Suri is very jealous, so it’s better if we use the existing facilities without bothering to provide one more room for the maid who we don’t know how it works,” added Areez again calmly .

Aldrich could only shake his head at Areez’s words, his best friend’s brain was really messed up. Everything is always connected to Suri, even though Suri doesn’t necessarily come to visit their apartment.

Aldrich’s annoyance at Areez eased slightly when the food he ordered arrived, the fragrant aroma of cheese on top of his favorite spaghetti made Aldrich choose to eat directly rather than continue his argument with his best friend.

Areez just shook his head at the way Aldrich ate, because he wasn’t hungry and his work wasn’t finished, Areez chose to stay focused on his laptop. He had to make sure a shipment of ten thousand bottles of his finest wine arrived safely in Geneva so he could quickly promote to some of the places that were already on his list. Areez wants to impress his future father-in-law Jack. Even though he doesn’t know if he will get an apology from Jack for what he has done to Suri, Areez already considers Jack as his future father-in-law.

“Go Areez, you have to show your greatness to Jackson Clarke. Show him that you are the only right person to be Suri’s husband.”

“What? Christian’s getting married in two weeks? You’re not kidding, are you? I don’t even know that girl named Elena, Mom. Then how can you let Christian marry her?”
