24 | Matteo

Apabila Matteo berjalan masuk ke dalam pejabat dia bersama Evelynn, semua mata melihatnya.

"We'll be okay, love."

Evelynn berkata apabila Matteo memegang jari jemarinya erat. Dia tersenyum. Matteo menarik nafas panjang lalu mengangguk.

"Ya. We'll be okay."

Mereka mengadakan mesyuarat dahulu sebelum mengumumkan perkahwinan mereka.

Semua staff Matteo terkelu apabila mengetahui bahawa Evelynn sebenarnya wujud dan dia tak mencipta nama Evelynn dulu.

"So you were.." "I was his fiance. I was his only girlfriend. I was his long lost friend too. I exist. Here I am."

Evelynn meletakkan kad pengenalan, lesen dan segala kad pengenalan yang ada padanya.

"I'm Evelynn Sierra."

Semua staff Matteo terasa bersalah. Mereka terus mendekati Matteo.

"Tuan Haq.."

Matteo tersenyum lalu menggeleng.

"I told him that I'll come back to this office when you guys stop hating me. So do you guys hate me now?" "No, Tuan Haq. We don't hate you. Please come back. We need you."

"We need you, Tuan Haq."

Semua Staff mula bersuara lalu Matteo melihat Evelynn. Evelynn tersenyum.

"I told you."

Evelynn berkata perlahan sebelum berundur. Ia tidak mahu mencuri 'limelight' yang diberi pada Matteo.

Matteo memegang tangannya lalu menariknya ke arah Matteo.

"She's the reason I came to this office back then. And now, she's the reason I'm back here. Please respect her like you respect me. She's my life. Ill never let anyone hurt her. If you hurt her, youre hurting me badly."

Evelynn terkelu. Matteo tidak pernah tinggalkan dia sendirian. Dan Matteo tidak mampu melihat Evelynn terluka, kerana wanita itu membuatkan dia tersenyum.

Matteo menunjukkan tempat kerja Evelynn lalu dia berundur.

"You'll be here when I'm there."

Evelynn tersenyum.

"Saya nak awak ada dekat dengan saya selalu. I'll do anything to keep you by my side all the time. I love you, baby." "I love you the most, cinta. We'll be professional though. You're my boss here. I'm going to treat you like my boss."

Matteo tersenyum lalu mengangguk.

"Fine.. just if I can resist my beautiful new staff a.k.a my most beautiful angel." "You should go, Tuan Haq."

Matteo tergelak kecil.

"Tuan Haq?" "Hmm.. you're my Tuan Haq. You were always my Haq. My right."

Matteo mengangguk.

"You sound hot when you call me like that. Youre the only one who made me like that name." "Hm. Saya rasa Tuan Haq dah kena balik ke bilik Tuan. Apa pula orang lain akan fikir kalau Tuan ada di sini lama lama?" "Diorang akan fikir saya sedang bercinta dengan the love of my life."

Evelynn tersenyum lalu menundukkan wajahnya.

"Tuan Haq, saya nak mula bekerja ni. Tuan Haq tak nak keluar?" "Awak halau saya ya? Fine. I'm leaving." "Tuan.."

Evelynn menghampiri Matteo lalu memeluknya.

"You did a great job today, Tuan. You should go." "Wah.. okay. I'm going."

Matteo berlalu pergi. Evelynn terus tersenyum manis. Aduh! Makin jatuh cinta macam ni.

Ibu ❤️: Assalamualaikum anak ibu! How was his dad? Is he okay?
Eve: Waalaikumsalam ibu! Sorry Eve lupa nak bagitahu ibu! Papa perlukan oksigen untuk bernafas. He's not well. Matteo dah ambil alih syarikat papa. And now, we both have to stop working in our current company.
Ibu ❤️: I hope everything will be okay for you, matteo and his papa. Semoga semuanya Allah permudahkan untuk korang.
Eve: Amiin ya rabbal alamin. Thank you, ibu.

Evelynn melihat Matteo dari meja kerjanya. Ia tidak yakin bahawa dia mampu bekerja dengan lelaki itu di sini buat masa yang lama kerana ia tidak mahu orang berkata kata tentang cara dia mendapatkan pekerjaan itu.

Evelynn meletakkan kepalanya di atas meja. Apa yang patut dia katakan pada Matteo sekiranya ia mahu meninggalkan pekerjaan dia nanti?

"What happened, madam? Is everything okay?"

Evelynn terkelu. Dia melihat staff yang baru saja datang ke biliknya.

"I'm.. okay. You are?" "I'm Eliza. Madam boleh panggil saya Liza." "Panggil saya Evelynn atau Lynn pun boleh. Tak perlulah madam." "Tuan Haq suruh kami panggil madam begitu. So Im following his order." "His order?" "Yes. Di sini, tak ada instructions. It's an order from him."

"What?" "It sounds bad but seriously, he'll order us to do something nice only. Tuan Haq is a nice man. Dia tak pernah sakitkan hati sesiapa. Tapi, kitorang sakitkan hati dia. We're sorry, madam."

"It's okay, you can call me Lynn." "Miss Lynn."
