141 The Proposal Ceremony
Because before, Lidya had refused to meet Graham and his family, today, when Lidya finally agreed to meet them, Graham took advantage of it to hold a pre-wedding photo session, followed by the family proposal ceremony.After the pre-wedding photo session, using a small meeting room in this hotel, the proposal ceremony began.Graham had prepared a dowry in various forms for Romel and Esy. There was cash, one apartment unit, one house in a housing complex in Bogor, and most importantly, twelve percent shares of Mulia Investment.Right then, introductions between Graham's family and Lidya's family began. Romel and Esy, very proud to become in-laws with this American family, deliberately invited their relatives and a few of their good friends to attend and witness the proposal ceremony and the dowry presentation.Romel's and Esy's faces were constantly smiling as the dowry items were announced one by one by a representative from Graham's family.On Lid
142 Romel Lied
Lidya, who had been gloomy all along, feeling as if her life would end with the certainty of her marriage to Graham, and the fact that Ken had been paid to leave her, now stood up and shouted at the young man who had just arrived. "WHAT DO YOU WANT, COMING HERE, HUH?!""I want to talk to you, Lidya," said the young man who had just arrived, who turned out to be Ken, coming in followed by Andreas, Silvia, and Mathias."What is there to talk about? You took that money. You were heartless enough to sell your love. So what is there to talk about, huh?!" Lidya, usually resilient and somewhat bold, was now weeping on the stage, looking at Ken.In her tears, there was gratitude because she could see Ken healthy and well, without lacking anything. In fact, Ken's face looked even more handsome in the nice clothes he was wearing.Lidya, who for several days had been thinking badly, suspecting Ken had been eliminated by Graham, which was why Ken had never appeared a
143 Romel Stroke
"Maybe it's because he just read internet news about the stock market, Pa. Yes. That must be what he did before he came in here, so he could get ammunition to attack us," Graham stated."Yes. You're right, Graham. Maybe he's just looking for material to badmouth us, and he happened to see on the internet that our company is being attacked by Diamond Group in the stock market," Gedric said, nodding."Yes, Pa. Maybe he just happened to find out about the problem our company is facing and used it to attack us."Gedric nodded repeatedly. "Yes, maybe you're right. Maybe the news about the huge losses we've suffered is already on the internet, even though I haven't actually checked it yet."Graham stood up and said to Ken, "Apparently, you've been reading the news, huh? Indeed, my company has had a small problem today. But that's normal in the stock world. It's not a big problem. This is just a minor fluctuation in the stock market, which happens all the time.
144 Hitting a Thick Wall
"You've made my father have a stroke! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT, HUH?! DO YOU WANT TO MAKE MY FATHER DIE, HUH!!!" Lidya shouted, pressing the knife, made of stainless steel and quite sharp, against her neck.Lidya was very panicked when she saw Romel's condition, as if he were at death's door. Lidya blamed Ken, because she thought Ken had hit Romel when they collided on the stairs leading up to the stage."Don't, Lidya. Don't. Please... don't do that. Please." Ken pleaded, pressing his palms together in front of his chest."Then get out of here, QUICK!!!" Esy shouted, so angry at Ken, whom she thought had hit Romel.But right then, Esy was stunned to see Romel, still convulsing, appear to open one eye and peek toward Ken. Esy only then realized that Romel was just acting.Esy whispered in Romel's ear, "Don't peek. Lidya will get suspicious.""Okay," Romel said, winking one eye at Esy."Papa's acting is very good.""Of course. Papa
145 Temporarily Withdrawing
"Of course not. But I was forced to withdraw for the time being because I saw Lidya's recklessness earlier," Ken stated."Withdraw?" Andreas asked."Yes. I was forced to let that proposal ceremony continue. But tomorrow, I'll make sure that wedding ceremony will never be completed."Andreas nodded in understanding."Let's go to the nearest hotel. I'm going to destroy Graham and his company from that hotel," Ken said, getting into the car.Hearing that, Andreas immediately nodded and waited until Ken was inside the car before he got in and immediately drove the car toward the nearest hotel.**Meanwhile, Lidya, with an anxious heart, kept following Romel's development as he was being treated by Curtis, until finally, Curtis said Romel had been treated and could already attend the continuation of this proposal ceremony.Staggering and being supported by Curtis, the fake doctor, Romel was seated again beside Esy and Lidya.
146 Apologies in Many Media
"What is it now? I want to sleep, you know! Ugh. So noisy. You know I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days," Lidya complained, hearing Tirza's scream."Look at this, Lidya. Try looking at this. There's so much news on the internet about a young master from Hong Kong apologizing to his girlfriend. So he's apologizing not just on TV, but also in social media ads. Full of his apologies, even filling up reputable online media," Tirza said, her eyes wide."So that program was indeed prepared to be a big event. Fine then. Just leave it. I don't want to follow programs like that.""But that young master who's apologizing, his face looks exactly like your boyfriend, Lidya.""Graham? Why would he make such an expensive program like that? He's already succeeded in winning over my parents, so I can no longer avoid marrying him. Why else would he do that?""Not Graham, Lidya. You told me yourself that you never considered Graham your boyfriend.
147 News from Hong Kong
"Huh, I thought it was something else? I don't want to see it!" Lidya snapped, choosing to close her eyes."But it seems what your friend Elizabeth said is true," Tirza said."What do you mean?""Last night, Elizabeth told you that the cost Ken spent on his ads in electronic media, online media, and social media must have already been more than sixty billion. So it seems impossible that he really paid for all of that from the money he got from being bribed by your father and your future husband.""Enough already. It's so complicated. I don't want to calculate the numbers anymore. What's clear is, he has already disappointed me deeply because he took bribes from my father and from Graham. So I don't want to talk about him anymore."**Elsewhere, Ken was still in his room, in front of his laptop, as he had been for the last few hours.Suddenly, Felix entered the room, whose door wasn't closed, and said to Ken, "The wedding ceremony is a
148 Overcoming Obstacles
Guests had already begun arriving at the hotel ballroom that would be the venue for Lidya and Graham's wedding ceremony that afternoon.Many Mulia Investments employees were already at the venue, along with associates from Mulia Investments.Lidya had indeed arrived at the hotel somewhat late, which was why she was immediately greeted by Graham at the hotel's main entrance, as she was already nearly an hour behind schedule.The delay was not only due to the makeup preparation being done on Lidya, but also because Lidya had spent a long time crying in the bathroom, thinking about how she would soon belong to someone she didn't love, and also thinking about Ken, who had disappointed her.That was why, when Lidya arrived at the hotel ballroom for this wedding ceremony, the music signaling the wedding was about to begin had already started to play.Graham, full of pride, now took Lidya's hand to walk, step by step, toward the altar to exchange vows as husband and wife.**Meanwhile, on th
149 We Are Not Liars
Ken immediately entered the open elevator door, along with several guests who were also going to attend the event in the hotel ballroom.As Ken entered and the elevator door closed, the elevator door on the left opened, and Romel stepped out of that elevator.Heri immediately approached Romel and said, "Mr. Romel is too late. That cleaning service just got into that elevator." Heri pointed toward the elevator Ken had entered earlier."Why didn't you block him?" Romel asked, glaring at Heri."I tried, Mr. Romel. I even mobilized the Cobra gang members to block Ken. But they didn't succeed, sir. They all fell out there." Heri pointed toward the front entrance.But it turned out, at the front entrance of this hotel, an extraordinary change had occurred. The Cobra gang members from earlier were now being lifted by the security guards and put into the hotel's operational bus.Right then, several luxury cars stopped in front of the hotel entrance, so Heri and Romel immediately paid attentio
150 Rommel Expelled
"Throw this man out of my hotel!" Alvin pointed at Romel.Hearing that, the manager immediately shifted his gaze to Romel and said firmly, "Sir, please leave, as the new owner of this hotel wishes it so.""Is this serious? Is this real? Is this not an act?" Romel asked, confused."There is no acting here, Mr. Romel. Everything is serious. A few moments ago, my Big Boss in America called me and ordered me to act according to the new boss's commands. If I don't act according to the new boss's commands, my position is at stake. So please, sir, leave this place!""But my daughter is getting married upstairs."Hearing that, the Hotel Manager immediately called several security guards who were on standby near the entrance. After that, the hotel manager said to the security guards, "Throw this man out of here. Don't listen to anything he says, and don't let him back into this hotel area. Understand?"After that, the security guards immediately pulled Romel's hand to take him out of the hotel
