章節 12: No Shame
After Magenta played golf with Bianca many calls came to Stevano's company, they asked about Magenta, apparently Bianca told reporters that until there were several reporters who were in front of Stevano's company.
"I'll take her to our meeting," Rion said hanging up.
"Okay, I'll tell Mr. Rion," said Alex who also hung up the phone.
They both looked at each other. It's hard to count how many of their coworkers have called and asked to meet Magenta and see her in person because Bianca said she could cheer them up.
"This is beyond my plans." Ron held his head. He did plan to use Magenta but this was too sudden.
"I'll schedule Magenta to meet your coworkers, I'll also ask what they'd like to see," Alex said.
Rion nodded and sent Alex out of the room. She looked at Magenta who was sitting in her chair. Since the incident the other day, they didn't speak to each other at all. He should be angry with Magenta's attitude and punish him but somehow he became a little afraid of Magenta.
Riiing riiing
Rion's office phone rang again. He rubbed his face in frustration. He immediately pressed a button for all his employees. "Refuse all requests by journalists to interview Magenta,"
Rion loosened his tie, this was not a good thing for him. He believes his co-workers will try to take Magenta from him or try to find Magenta's weaknesses to bring his company down. He had to immediately prepare for any eventuality that would occur.

Inside a building in a remote area, a woman is sitting coloring her nails. Her face looked very happy as if something good had happened to her. She stopped whistling when a man came into her room, she glanced at the man's hand holding the cell phone.
"The person you're looking for has been found, it's a woman, Casey,"
The man gave the phone in his hand to Casey. Casey's face lit up as she read the article about a blind girl who could do anything. She snapped her fingers until her dyed nails became messy. Casey smiled at the man in front of her.
"Finally my wait paid off. But unfortunately, she's a girl."
"No," Casey quickly shook her head and smiled lopsidedly. "That'll be more interesting. I'm waiting for you, Magenta," Casey said, staring at the monitor that showed the room with a special eye written on it.
"What about the others, John?" Casey asked, sitting back in her chair and painting her messy nails.
"Only the eyes of destruction are still hard to control. Super ears can be quickly controlled because he is very shy. The super nose will cooperate if we guarantee her family life. While the others are still in negotiations but what is clear is that they will surely submit to us," explained John.
"Kendal, that guy turned out to be quite stubborn. Find something that will make him submit to us and give it to him," Casey ordered John, her eyes not leaving the monitor showing a sleeping man. John nodded his head and left Casey's room.
Casey pressed a button and brought his mouth to the loudspeaker. "Call super ears, I have a job for him,"

"I told you she wasn't home," Dean said to Jessy and Henry. She closed the door hard because they had come to her house several times looking for Magenta.
Henry and Jessy looked at each other worriedly, Magenta hadn't been home for a few days while more and more media was talking about her. She quickly became very famous across the country as he often performed for Stevano's corporate colleagues. Videos of her performances, be it ballet, painting, singing, even playing golf, have been circulating on social media. People are increasingly interested in her but she never wants to be interviewed, even Jessy and Henry are very difficult to contact Magenta.
"Is she really okay? She hasn't been home in a long time. That guy didn't make Magenta work too hard, did he?" Jessy bit her lip while looking at Henry worriedly.
"Should I just come to Stevano's company?" she asked Henry's opinion again.
"No, we'll be there," Jessy said confidently. She immediately pulled Henry's hand to go to Stevano's company. They got into the car, Jessy immediately drove hir car fast because she was too worried about Magenta.
"Is it okay if we go there? Even though you are the daughter of the CEO of Mandara company but you still can't go there, especially since your company doesn't cooperate with Stevano's company, right?" Henry asked, holding the car seat. His body hit the windshield several times because Jessy was driving her car carelessly.
"Shut up, you're bothering me," Jessy said annoyed. She had pressed the horn several times so the vehicle in front of her moved aside and made way for her car.
Henry finally chose it while continuing to grip the seatbelt tightly. He repeatedly asked Jessy to switch, he was going to drive but Jessy didn't care at all and kept driving faster. Henry could only surrender, that's why he never let Jessy drive the car, he just hoped they could arrive safely at Stevano's company.
Ciiiit! Jessy hit the brakes before crashing into the car in front of her. Jessy brushed aside the hair that was blocking her view because her head almost hit the steering wheel of her own car.
"You are okay, right? Let's get out quickly," said Jessy who saw Henry holding his head for hitting the front of the car and then pulling Henry out of the car. While continuing to endure the pain Henry followed Jessy who was almost half running to the company. They both ignored Jessy's car which was parked carelessly.
"I want to meet Magenta, she's inside right?" said Jessy to the receptionist who greeted her. The receptionist looked Jessy and Henry up and down because of their disheveled appearance.
"We're Magenta's friends, let me meet her," Jessy said again because the receptionist didn't answer. She took out her cell phone and showed a photo of the three of them with Magenta.
"Sorry but now many have taken pictures with Miss Magenta and many claims to know Miss Magenta," said the receptionist politely.
"We are really Magenta's friends, just call Magenta and she will recognize us," said Jessy who continued to insist that the receptionist call Magenta. She held his waist in annoyance at the receptionist who seemed to be belittling her.
"Sorry but you can't meet Miss Magenta if you haven't made an appointment,"
The receptionist sat back and served other guests. Jessy rolled her eyes annoyed, she wanted to scream again but Henry held her hand and shook her head at her, she gestured for Jessy to look around, Jessy's messy hair and Henry's bloody head made them the center of attention.
"We'll find another way or we'll try to contact Magenta again," Henry said, pulling Jesyy's hand to the side. Jessy nodded, "Right, another way,"
Jessy let go of Henry's hand and ran quickly to the entrance but was blocked because she didn't have an ID card. She tried to jump over the door causing several people to scream in surprise. Henry immediately ran and caught Jessy before the guards who were there caught Jessy.
"Sorry, she's a little crazy," Henry bowed apologetically while forcing his head down too.
"Let me meet Magenta!" Jessy shouted, she struggled and tried to free her hand from Henry's grip. People began to gather and whisper because they wanted to see what was causing the commotion. Henry repeatedly apologized while holding back the embarrassment of Jessy's very childish attitude.
"Let them in, they're my acquaintances,"
Jessy immediately stopped struggling, they both turned to the source of the sound, a woman with short black hair with clothes that were tight but fitted to her body, she held back the guards who wanted to catch Jessy.
"Let them in," said the woman again. She motioned for the guard to open the door for Henry and Jessy. The woman smiled at the two of them gesturing to follow her. Jessy glared and lifted her chin haughtily at the guards as they passed them.
"Thanks for your help," Henry said, bowing his head as they were away from the crowd.
"No problem. You're Jessy from Mandara company aren't you?" said the woman while looking at Jessy who looked still annoyed with her hair getting disheveled.
"You know me?" said Jessy in surprise. She looked at the woman who had helped her, she frowned because she didn't know the woman in front of her at all.
"I am Nancy Manggala, director of the Kasih Sayang orphanage. Your company became one of our orphanage donors," the woman introduced herself politely while extending her hand to Jessy.
Jessy was silent for a while then returned the woman's handshake with a smile, she had read the name of the orphanage in one of the files on her parents' desk. "That's right, I'm Jessy Mandara. But how did you get in here so easily?"
Henry pinched Jessy's body because of Jessy's impolite attitude, he smiled awkwardly and apologized to Nancy.
"That's okay," Nancy said with a smile. Indeed one would wonder how she got into Stevano's company so easily if she was just an orphanage director but for the employees who have worked there for a long time they would know who she is.
"I'm Rion's best friend, he lets me in as I please," Nancy said as she walked towards the elevator and pressed the up button. "You want to meet Magenta, don't you? She should be in Rion's room," Nancy said again, watching the elevator begin to descend.
"But are you really Magenta's friend? I am helping you because you are the daughter of the CEO of Mandara company."
This time Nancy's expression turned serious. She escorted Jessy and Henry to the elevator whose doors were already open. Jessy's face turned sour again when she heard Nancy's words but Henry withdrew her hand and got into the elevator. Nancy followed them inside and immediately pressed the button for the top floor.
