Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

The tabebuya trees were now starting to fall along the road due to the wind, especially on the WR Bank terrace which was full of tabebuya petals that had fallen to the ground. Anggi had just gotten off work and was still at the bus stop texting Belvina. But after a few minutes, Belvina never replied. Called also her number is not active. Usually her best friend would be quick in replying to messages, especially from Anggi who was her best friend and also her apartment mate while in Jakarta.

“Where the hell are you, Vin? How come your number isn’t active like this? You didn’t leave earlier with the excuse that you wanted to meet Gifer and gave a false excuse to your boss, and now he’s disappeared like this? I’m getting worried, after all it’s late afternoon, hopefully Vina is already at home.” Not long after, the awaited bus came, but that was not what made Anggi change her position to standing, but there was a man who pulled her arm from the left side.

“Don’t get on the bus, let me take you.” Suddenly Anggi immediately turned his head towards the source of the voice. To her surprise, it turned out that the man who pulled her was a man she recognized.

“Mr… Ian?”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“Yes? Why so nervous?” Ian asked.

The bus passed the two of them, Anggi’s eyes were distracted by the bus for a moment and focused on Ian again.

“Ah, it’s okay.” Anggi replied.

‘How can you not be nervous, if you are pulled by the owner of WR Bank? How can you still be young at your age, handsome, and charming so that any girl who sees him will definitely be fascinated.’ Anggi thought with a very happy and explosive feeling in her chest.

“Are you alone?” Ian asked.

“Yes, I’m alone. Why is that? You’re bound to ask about why Belvina didn’t go, right? I know, yesterday you met her while jogging and eating at a restaurant,” Anggi tried to guess because several times Anggi always noticed that if she met Ian, he would always ask about Belvina.

It was a very sickening thing for Anggi who secretly liked Ian. Plus when last Sunday Belvina told her all about her jogging that met Jungkook made her heart hurt even more. Furious, Anna dared to say that to Jungkook. Yes, even though it sounded rude, but what else could she do? She was in a mode that didn’t want her crush to be taken by anyone, especially her own best friend. Actually, Belvina also often rejected Ian and Anggi realized it too. Therefore, Anggi hid his annoyance in order to keep his friendship from being damaged just because of one man. Ian who heard Anggi’s story just now was also surprised, that he was indeed wrong because he had liked Belvina who already had a lover. His eyes widened when he received such an accusation from Anggi.

“Who said that? I really just wanted to ask you. It has nothing to do with Vina,”

“Oh really?”

“Yes, I won’t ask her anymore from now on, because she already has a boyfriend. I just didn’t realize it,” Ian said.

“Let me take you home.” He continued while pulling Anggi’s right hand. The one being pulled just obeyed and walked towards Ian’s luxury car. Anggi bit her lower lip. How could he say that to his own boss who was not anyone but had the courage to manage this young boss.

“I’m the one who caused Gifer’s accident.”

That sentence was ringing in the ears of Belvina who was currently alone on the bridge where Gifer wanted to commit suicide while staring at the river with a fairly strong current. Belvina recalled everything that Raya had said that afternoon. Even now she had not gone home at all and was still digesting what Raya had said that afternoon after she returned from Gifer’s office.

“What do you mean, Raya? Did you plan Gifer’s accident?” Belvina asked curiously while changing her facial expression to a serious one.

“Yes, Nara asked me to do all that, hiks,” said Raya while shedding her tears.

“What does that mean? Please explain everything in detail, Raya.” Belvina’s order made her even more curious, as Raya only told her half of the story, making her even more confused.

“At that time, Nara and I were bound by an agreement. From the time I dated Gifer, I didn’t love him at all. In fact, we dated for a very long time. We were both still in Senior High School. When Gifer started working at my father’s company, I actually got tired of dating Gifer. That’s why I wanted to get rid of Gifer, but my father was always against it. He always asked me to stay in a relationship with Gifer. For me, having a relationship with Gifer without any love is like a void, I can’t continue it. Therefore, when Nara started approaching Gifer, I seized the opportunity to immediately make a strategy together with Nara,” Belvina was silent and still listening and digesting everything said by Raya even though Raya was pausing her sentence.

“Nara said herself that she really loves Gifer. When I asked her why if you love him but want to harm him? She only answered that if Gifer didn’t love her back, the more Gifer refused, the more she would hurt him. Then he devised the plan, asking me to tell Gifer to accompany me on a date when he just arrived at Kendal yesterday. The next day I forced Gifer to meet me. I admit, I always ask Gifer for arbitrary things and that was Nara’s plan. I was asked by Nara to contact Gifer right when Gifer was driving his car. And even when he got into an accident, I heard those horrible voices. I didn’t have the heart, but what else could I do? I was bound by an appointment with Nara. I’m sorry, Belvina. Honestly, I haven’t told anyone about this until now. Please, don’t report me to the police.” Raya explained while kneeling before Belvina. Don’t forget the tears that had been flowing since she told everything. Belvina who heard it was still shocked by all the truth that Raya had told. You don’t want to believe it, but this is the truth, you want to believe it, but Raya can’t be fully trusted either. Belvina shifted her gaze to another direction then refocused on a girl who had knelt down and bowed before Gifer.

“You should apologize to Gifer. Not to me. Gifer is very hurt because he can’t see. Do you know, Gifer once almost committed suicide on the bridge if I didn’t stop him at that time.” Raya’s eyes widened in disbelief and looked up to where Belvina stood.

“Really?” Belvina nodded.

“Out of desperation, Gifer almost ended his life. Gifer was not only desperate because of the blindness he received, but also because of the company that was suddenly taken over by you and your father.”

Raya was speechless. She really felt guilty for Gifer.

“Gifer, I’m sorry,”

Belvina woke up from her reverie when a voice interrupted her.

“Vina!!! Let’s go home!!!”
