HEIR OF THE DEATH STRIKE

Chapter 2

He knocked politely on the office door.

"Come in!" Darwin's voice came from inside the room.

Zaqqy opened the door and bowed slightly.

"Good afternoon, sir. Sorry to bother you."

Darwin, who was sitting in his chair, glanced at him briefly.

"Oh, it's you. You want to ask about the loan from yesterday, right?"

"Yes, sir," replied Zaqqy hopefully.

Darwin sighed, focusing on his laptop screen.

"Not yet. Come back in a week."

"What?.." Zaqqy was stunned. "But sir... yesterday on the phone you said it had been approved and I could take it right away."

Darwin waved his hand irritably.

"Not now! Besides, you have too many debts. You're the one who borrows the most money here. Now get out! I have a guest coming soon."

His tone was cold and condescending.

Zaqqy bowed his head slowly. The disappointment was clear on his face. It seemed that he would not be able to keep the promise he made to his mother that morning. However, he did not dare to argue.

"Yes, sir," he said softly.

Zaqqy left the room. But as soon as the door opened, he saw Rahayu standing in front of it with two other people.

"Hey, Zaqqy!" Rahayu greeted him warmly. "It turns out I've been invited to have lunch here. But they said they wanted to talk to the cafe owner first."

"Oh," Zaqqy just nodded slightly. "Yes... please go ahead."

He then walked away from the place, while Rahayu entered Darwin's room with the two people. Zaqqy returned to his guard post.

"Why are you back already?" asked Tono in surprise.

"He said the money isn't ready yet," replied Zaqqy disappointedly.

"Huh? Didn't you say it had been approved?"

"Yes... but he said the money isn't ready yet."

"Oh my God..." Tono shook his head slowly.

But while they were talking, Zaqqy saw the two people who had come with Rahayu leaving the café and driving away in their car. His brow immediately furrowed.

"Hey! Why are you looking at their car like that?" Tono scolded him.

"That's it. The car that came with my friend Rahayu, to Mr. Darwin's office. Why are they leaving together?"

Tono immediately looked at Zaqqy with a changed expression.

"Are you serious?" whispered Tono.

"Yes."

Tono immediately slapped his forehead.

"Astaghfirullahaladzim, Zaqqy!"

"What's wrong, Ton?" Zaqqy was confused.

"You know that Mr. Darwin is a womaniser, right?"

"Astaghfirullah..."

Zaqqy's eyes widened. Without thinking twice, he immediately ran towards the second floor.

However, in front of Darwin's room, several of his subordinates who were on guard duty were still standing.

"What's wrong?" asked one of them with a sharp gaze.

Zaqqy tried to remain calm.

"That... I left my mobile phone inside."

"Don't, sir! Please don't do this!" Rahayu's voice could be heard from inside.

"It's okay, it's just the two of us here," Darwin's voice was loud.

Zaqqy's blood boiled, because he understood the direction of the conversation.

"Move aside!" he asked Darwin's men.

Brugh!!

"Hey! What do you mean! Get out of here!" Darwin's men snapped, pushing Zaqqy's body back several steps.

"Bastard!!"

Bugh!

Zaqqy, furious, clenched both fists, his emotions boiling over, immediately grabbing and pushing Darwin's men back, causing them to fall to the floor.

Zaqqy was not the type of person who liked to cause trouble, but during his school days, he had learned the basics of taekwondo. Although he was not particularly skilled, it was enough to train his body to react quickly when the situation demanded it.

BRAAkk!

The young man immediately broke down the door, with such force. His eyes sharpened as he saw what was happening.

Inside the room, Rahayu was trying to avoid Darwin, who was about to touch her.

"Hey! What are you doing here?!" Darwin snapped angrily. "How rude! You have no manners! Rinto! Malik! Come in! Drag him out!" Darwin yelled, calling his men.

His two men immediately entered, trying to pull Zaqqy away.

"Let go!!!" Zaqqy snapped, pushing their hands away and walking towards Rahayu. The girl's shirt was slightly open. "This is not the way, sir," Zaqqy said firmly.

A hard slap landed on his face.

"How dare you!" Darwin snapped. "Get out of here or I'll fire you!" Darwin threatened.

But Zaqqy didn't care, staring cynically at Darwin. He was breathing heavily, trying to control his anger, then looked at Rahayu and pulled the girl.

"Come on, Rahayu. Let's get out of here," he said.

Rahayu, who was trembling, immediately fixed her clothes and held Zaqqy's hand tightly.

"Watch out, all of you!" snapped Zaqqy, who was completely fed up.

They walked out of the room, quickly pushing past Darwin's two men who were there.

"Zaqqy! If you take her with you, you're done for!" Darwin shouted angrily.

Zaqqy stopped for a moment and turned around.

"I'm not afraid. What you're doing is wrong, sir," replied Zaqqy without fear.

He then continued walking.

"You're fired!" Darwin shouted angrily.

"I accept my dismissal!"

Zaqqy replied without turning his head. Meanwhile, Darwin stared at Zaqqy's back with eyes full of hatred. He then turned to Rinto.

"Take him out," he said coldly. "How dare he defy me."

Brak!!
