Not the Perfect Son-in-law
Chapter 5. Meeting With Sarah

Chapter 5

Ali was having lunch with his business partner at a Padang dining restaurant. The handsome and shady man was talking to three other men. They are discussing a cooperation project that will be extended by the two companies.

"Origin?" I heard a female voice.

"Sarah," Ali replied as she looked at the person who greeted her. And so did the three other men who looked at Sarah.

"Are you Miss Sarah, Mr Tama's daughter?" ask Ali's business partner.

"Yes, you're right" Sarah replied politely.

"Do you know Mr Ali?" ask Mr. Aaron while pointing at Ali.

"Yes, we've known him for a long time. We go to school first" Sarah replied with a sweet smile.

Sarah sat there with them. Ali looked uncomfortable because the woman kept looking at him and talking to him. So that the other three people feel that the woman likes him.

"What if I also invest in this project? To be honest I'm very interested in your cooperation" Sarah said and made the four others glance at each other.

This cooperation project does require a very large cost. This is still just a project discourse that they will intertwine after the previous project is completed.

"That's what we're going to talk about in the future with our superiors. Because previously this was the project of two of our companies" said Ali. 

This man felt reluctant if he had to often intersect with Sarah. It is clear that yesterday Hafsah was jealous and he did not want to hurt his wife. In addition, he also does not want to cause slander.

Sarah still often glanced at Ali. Somehow she was so hard to turn her face away from that man.

'Stupidly I didn't look for you as soon as I graduated school. If time could be repeated, I would take Ali to study abroad. And we can live together happily ever after, Sarah continued in her heart.

"The time of this meeting is over. I ask permission to leave because there are many other jobs that I have to do," said Ali then moved from there followed by Mr. Aaron.

Seeing that Ali was going to leave there, Sarah followed Ali from behind. He still wants to be with that man.

"Ali, wait!" sarah shouted because Ali was walking so fast. However, the man was as if deaf had not heard his voice.

Ali deliberately sped up his path and wanted to avoid Sarah. This action made Mr. Aaron feel astonished. Ali is not the type of person who likes to be grumpy, but he will do everything calmly.

Ali got into the office car because he came here with Mr. Aaron. He let his co-workers look curiously at him. After starting the engine he immediately hit the gas and Sandra just got to where they parked earlier.

"Sir Ali, I'm sorry if my question is a little offending to you. Why are you so indifferent to Miss Sarah?" ask Mr. Aaron.

"I'm guarding my wife and myself, sir. I don't want to have any unpleasant news or slander between us in the future" Ali replied politely.

Mr. Aaron fell silent. He knows that Ali and Hafsah are a married couple who are fighting for the line two. The house has always looked harmonious and romantic. It will be a shame if that peaceful life is broken.

Hafsah just finished cooking for lunch. There was an incident of Ruqoyah falling in the bathroom. As usual the old woman scolded Hafsah, for not cleaning the bathroom properly. Though the truth is that Alika finished her bath and it seems that the girl did not clean anymore. As a result, Ruqoyah fell and hit the head of the yam.

"If anything happens to Mama? Then you are the one who must take responsibility" Alika said with a sharp look to everyone present there.
