nOne month later. Clara Gunawan still hadn't given up on her plan to win Oscar's heart and snatch him from Lisa. She would do everything to take her old lover back. The woman grabbed her cell phone and made a call to Oscar. A sly smile was painted on her beautiful, immaculate face, as if she was a demon who had transformed into a wingless angel.

n

"Good morning Oscar, it's me Clara,

" she said in a soft and gentle tone. Even her voice sounded very smooth and melodious like the voice of hundreds of angels. Anyone who met her for the first time would be fooled.

n

"What are you calling me for?

" Oscar asked coldly from across the phone. The man was preparing for a meeting this morning at the office but he had to postpone a meeting with company officials who collaborated with Petersson Communication in order to settle his personal affairs with his former lover.

n

"Hey calm down, don't be so stiff. I called because I wanted to ask for help,

" Clara said in a contrived pleasing voice. She crossed her legs gracefully and confidently.

n

"So the money that I gave you yesterday is not enough?

" Oscar suddenly exclaimed. His voice sounded cold as cold as an iceberg. Anyone would have a goosebump after hearing Oscar's voice just now for sure.

n

"Oh no, that's not it. I've been in Jakarta for months and I still haven't found a new job, I want to work and be independent, I mean it!

"

n

"Then let me hang up this phone and get back to work. I'll let you know as soon as there is a suitable job opening for you,

" Oscar replied flatly and coldly as usual.

nClara was a little irritated when Oscar did not understand the hidden meaning of her sentence. But she wouldn't give up. Clara would keep trying her hardest until her goal was achieved.

nA sly grin crossed her face as she said,

"If there's a job opening at Petersson Communications, I won't mind applying there.

"

n

"You want to work at Petersson Communication!?

" Oscar was startled by Clara's request, he frowned, feeling hesitant.

n

"Yes, why? Can't I? Man...I want to be close to you, Oscar. You are really good, always give me money and spoil me. Please...

" Clara's voice sounded exasperated.

nOscar stood still on the other side of the phone for a moment. He considered whether his decision to let Clara work in his company would be risky or not. If the risk was too high, the company could suffer serious losses.

nThe man was silent for a moment, racking his brains before he decided to let Clara work a job at his company. He clicked his pen many times while their phone was still connected.

n

"Um...

" Clara said from across.

"How about it, Oscar? Can I work at your company?

" Clara asked in a determined, confident tone. The woman grinned behind the phone.

n

"Come tomorrow Monday and try to apply. If you meet the requirements, then you will work at my company.

"

n

"Ah, thank you so much Oscar! You are the best!

" Clara's voice sounded so cheerful. She almost fell from her seat when she heard Oscar's words just now.

nOscar hung up the call without any greetings. It looked like Clara's plan to win Oscar's heart was slowly working. With this, she could see Oscar almost every day at the office!

n***

nThe promised Monday had arrived, Clara went to the Petersson Communication office to apply for a job. That morning, Clara wore shiny black high heels combined with a white knee-length skirt, along with a white long-sleeved shirt with a feminine cut. Her fair white face was polished with inconspicuous makeup. Her lips were dyed with red lipstick, looking like cherries. Clara was like a model!

nArriving at the office, Clara ran into Oscar in a corridor. The woman smiled sweetly and said,

"Oscar, I'm ready to work!

"

nOscar only raised an eyebrow and glanced at her. The man made no comment when the woman clad in white clothes passed him. Before Oscar returned to the meeting room, the man spoke to a personnel,

"Please take the lady in the white shirt to the finance department, she will fill the empty seat there.

"

nThe woman then nodded and took Clara to the finance department. In the past few months, many employees had resigned from the Petersson Comm company, especially since the incident with Lisa. Lisa was forced to resign because the secret of her relationship with Oscar was revealed by Clara several months ago.

nClara was so lucky she got a vacant seat in finance. The woman from the HR department introduced her to the employees of the finance department, giving her a brief introduction to her new job.

nNot far from the entrance to the finance department, Andien had just arrived and found a foreign woman sitting in Lisa's previous chair. She was stunned to see the figure of a tall and thin woman like a model. Wasn't that Clara, Oscar's ex-girlfriend that Lisa talked about? Why was she here?

nWhen Andien was about to put her tote bag on her desk, the woman from the HR department introduced Clara to her.

"This is one of our employees in the finance department, her name is Andien. If you need help on how to work in the finance department, just ask her!

"

n

"Andien,

" the woman continued,

"This is Clara, she's a new employee at Petersson Communication. Please guide Clara while working in the finance department, okay?

"

nAndien just nodded doubtfully. She didn't even know exactly when the woman applied for a job at Petersson Communication. Or did this woman who instigated a conflict with Lisa once ask Oscar's help to put her in this office?

nClara smiled sweetly and held out her hand to shake Andien's hand. Her smile looked so fake, Andien could feel it!

n

"Nice to meet you Andien!

" The woman smiled at Andien. Her neat white teeth looked very beautiful like a toothpaste commercial star.

n

"Yeah, same her,

" Andien replied doubtfully. She was disgusted by Clara's fake smile.

"Alright then, let me go back to my desk and work!

"

nAndien stepped into her seat and started working. Deep inside her heart, Andien was furious and surprised. How could the evil woman work in the same department as her? Nothing happened but then she suddenly saw Clara sitting at Lisa's former table!

nAndien was eager to contact Lisa now, but she had to wait for the right time so she wouldn't raise suspicion from other employees.

n'Oh this is so bad!' Andien thought. She thought that this demonic woman would destroy her life too. Somehow, but Andien felt a stream of negative energy emanating from Clara's gaze. No matter how much Clara smiled sweetly or spoke softly and politely, her evil side still could not be hidden.

nAndien paused for a moment and stopped her fingers from typing on the keyboard. Without realizing it, Clara focused her eyes on Andien. Clara's gaze made Andien uncomfortable so she moved from her chair. Andien's palms were sweating. Clara looked like a tiger cornering its prey.

nAndien tried not to look at Clara's face, but there was an urge from inside her heart that forced her to glance. Sure enough, Clara's gaze was sharp and sly despite her sweet smile.

n'If only you are still in the same department as me, Lis!' Andien complained to herself.
