Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Monday had arrived. Lisa returned to work again at the office as usual. This morning, she struggled with the financial statements for the end of the month. She had to recap all the reports as soon as possible!

Sarah, Lisa's colleague in the finance department, approached her while she was busy typing on the computer. The woman handed over several folders containing financial reports for the past year to Lisa.

"Manager Lisa, I have checked everything. You just have to enter all the data into the database," Sarah politely said.

Lisa did not look at the face of the woman who handed over the folder containing dozens of A4 papers. Instead, she told Sarah to put the folder on top of her desk which was full of papers and folders.

This morning, Lisa looked a bit awkward. It was unusual for her to wear a shirt with a long collar. It looked like Lisa was not feeling well or had a cold, Sarah thought.

"Manager Lisa, are you okay?" Sarah looked at Lisa's long collar with suspicion. Not only was her dress weird, the way Lisa sat was also different from usual. The woman seemed very stiff when she moved her neck to the left or right.

"Oh, it's okay, I slept in the wrong position all night so my neck can't move too much," Lisa replied, trying to lie her way out.

"Manager Lisa, does your neck hurt? Do you want me to help massage it?" Sarah offered. Her hand loomed over Lisa's neck and before she could touch her manager's neck, Lisa suddenly brushed Sarah's hand with a quick reflex.

Sarah was immediately startled when her hand was brushed off so quickly. She took a step back and fell silent, feeling confused with Lisa's aggressive reaction.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to hit you but my neck hurts so bad. So don't touch it, please?" Lisa quickly said. However, her coworker smelled something fishy about it. Sarah began to suspect that Lisa was hiding something under the long collar.

"No problem, Manager Lisa, I'm sorry that I startled you. I just wanted to help. I can massage, so I thought maybe you needed my help that's why I offered to massage you earlier,"

"Okay, sorry I didn't mean to hit you. My neck hurts so much. Oh, by the way, don't call me Manager Lisa, it's really weird to hear that," Lisa added, opening the files scattered on her desk.

Sarah lowered her head. "Okay, so how do I call you ma'am?"

"Just call me Sister Lisa, and don't be too formal. I'm not so good with being too formal, I'm serious!" 

"Ah, okay. Then, I'll come back first, Sis Lisa," Sarah spun around and left Lisa's desk.

When the woman returned to her desk, Lisa could breathe a sigh of relief. 

'You damn white *** Oscar!' Lisa brushed her long collar while cursing the man that caused her to wear the weird-looking attire for today. Because of that man, she had to wear a shirt with a long collar to cover the kiss and bite marks Oscar left a few days ago.

The scars were hard to disappear even though two days had passed!

Then she paused for a while to think about something. After that, she brushed off the thoughts and went back to working on the financial report summary of her childhood friend's advertising company. She checked all of the incoming and outgoing reports. 

All of her colleagues had submitted reports to her except Riani. This woman really liked to hinder Lisa's performance lately. It seemed that the woman still had a grudge toward Lisa, who was immediately appointed financial manager in a relatively short time.

Riani could not accept this because she felt that she was the longest serving employee in Rangga's company. That's why she should have moved ahead instead of Lisa!

Not only that, ever since Lisa came and worked at Rangga's advertising office, Riani always bothered Lisa with numerous problems like arriving late and sending her report at the last minute of the deadline. Lisa had told Riani to do her job properly and submit earlier, but the woman blatantly refused!

Today, Riani should come to the office and finish all the financial reports assigned to Lisa. But half an hour had passed and Lisa still hadn't seen the gloomy woman's nose!

Lisa could only keep her annoyance and anger in her heart. She wouldn't let herself do anything reckless in front of colleagues at this relatively new company.

Not long after Lisa talked about Riani in her mind, that woman finally came to the office too!

Without any guilt or whatsoever, the gloomy-faced woman sat down and combed her hair as if she were not doing anything wrong.

Seeing this woman not realizing her mistake made Lisa even more upset. Lisa then approached Riani with a flat gaze and leaned towards Riani.

"Good morning, Ms. Riani, it's unusual for you to arrive on time. Anyway, have you finished the report?" Lisa asked sarcastically.

Riani looked into Lisa's eyes with an indifferent look. Without feeling guilty, the woman replied, "Can you wait a moment? Why are you in a rush? I was still doing this before I had no time to make up at home. The road is also badly jammed!"

Lisa snorted at Riani's irresponsibility. 'You can't do as you please to me like this just because you're two years older from me here!' Lisa complained to herself and still tried to contain her anger.

"Sis, I asked you to submit the latest financial report last night. But I didn't receive an email or a folder from you on my desk at all!" Lisa firmly and straightforwardly said.

"After all, didn't you just say that everyone had to submit it yesterday? I still remember you didn't say the date for the deadline at all, you know, so I'll just take it easy!" 

Riani was annoyed when people younger than her told her what to do with her work. The problem was that Lisa was indirectly Riani's boss! 

Lisa couldn't stop thinking why Rangga did not immediately fire an incompetent and irresponsible employee like Riani. 

Riani managed to make Lisa very angry that morning. It seemed that the woman with the gloomy face was deliberately delaying the time to make trouble with Lisa. 

How could Lisa forget, it was already a week ago that she sent an announcement via email and SMS to all employees of the finance department to work on financial reports before this morning.

Lisa could not stay silent. Even though Riani was the most senior in the room, she had to advise her because she had made a fatal mistake which would lead to bad consequences for the company.

"Sis Riani, I will repeat it again. I'm not making it up. I clearly stated the deadline for sending the report files via email and SMS. You don't need to make such false excuses, Sis Riani. I have checked everything, and only you have not submitted the report to me!"

"Heh," Riani sneered with the corners of her fierce eyes staring at Lisa's face, which was getting angry. "Who are you that you dare to order me around?"

Hearing these annoying words made Lisa take a deep breath before she returned to continuing her sentence, "Sis Riani, I know you are the most senior here and the longest working in this office. But please, I am your superior here! So you should do everything I command you as my subordinate!" 

"Heh, you dare to fight me?" Riani got up from where she was sitting and stood upright with a threatening aura.

The eyes of the other employees immediately fell on the two women. It looked like a fierce battle would ensue soon.

Lisa got up and stood facing Riani.. Unintentionally, the sudden movement made the long collar pulled down and got Lisa's neck exposed.
