425 The nned Meeting


    “Budi Maheswara, I heard that your daughter is getting married to the Jaya Family. Do you need help?”


    Budi couldn’t believe his own ears when he heard Hartono’s voice from the other side. This matter had been going on for quite some time, but there was nothing he coulde up with yet. The Jaya family didn’t want to give up and the Maheswara family couldn’t do anything.


    Plus, now Christian and Liam are working together. He couldn’t openly challenge the two of them.


    The situation was like stopping at a dead end. But suddenly, Hartono came to help. How could Budi not ept it?


    He epted it with open arms, with a very happy heart…


    “Mr. Hartono, is what you said true?” Budi couldn’t help but feel happy in his heart.


    Budi is indeed a senior in the business world. But he cannot bepared to Hartono Adipamungkas who is much stronger than him. That’s why he was so soft-spoken towards him to show his respect.


    “You think I have time for a joke?” Hartono frowned as he answered. From the tone of his voice, there was impatience.


    Budi immediately rushed to answer, “I was too excited and couldn’t believe it. That’s because I heard from the news that Christian is working with the Jaya Family recently…”


    .....


    “Christian is Christian. I am different.”


    That one sentence made Budi immediately understand. These grandfather and grandson may have conflicts or arguments so they have different opinions.


    ording to Budi, 90% of the reason is because of that damn woman, E!


    But this incident happened to be a blessing for him. Otherwise, how could he possibly get this great favor for free?


    “Thank you, sir,” Budi said respectfully. He thought for a moment and then ventured to ask, “I don’t know how much help you will give me?”


    “Today, arrange a meeting with the Jaya Family.”


    Hartono knew that if he didn’t act now, it would be toote. Christian became more and more addicted to E, unlike what Hartono imagined.


    He thought that sooner orter, Christian would get tired of E. But what happened was the opposite.


    Hartono is afraid that his grandson’s future will be increasingly out of control.


    With help from Hartono, Budi immediately contacted the Jaya Family and asked to meet.


    Although Liam’s parents did not want their son to marry Indri, they could notpletely severmunication with the Maheswara Family. They could not refuse the invitation to meet with Budi.


    In the afternoon, Heri and Nita Jaya went to visit the Maheswara Family’s house at the invitation of Budi. But what surprised them even more was that Hartono was there.


    Surprise was clearly visible on Heri’s face.


    “Budi, you…” Heri stood where he was, not knowing what to say.


    Even though Christian works closely with the Jaya Family, the two don’t actually have any kind of rtionship or closeness. They can’t ask Christian for help at will because they aren’t that close to him.


    Hartono looked at Heri and Nita with hatred in his eyes. Anyone who has a rtionship with that whore E looks bad in Hartono’s eyes.


    Seeing Hartono not saying anything, Budi finally spoke up. “Actually, it was Mr. Hartono who suggested today’s meeting,” he paused with a meaningful smile on his face. “This is for the rtionship between the two families.”


    When Indri came homest night, she told them that Haikal intended to work with them again.


    Basically, Budi has a greedy character. Of course he wanted to benefit from both sides.


    He decided to cooperate with Haikal secretly. While in public, he will marry his daughter to Liam.


    That way, he won’t suffer a loss from either side.


    When Budi talked about marriage, Heri and Nita immediately exchanged nces with an awkward expression on their faces. As parents, they do not want to marry off their favorite son to a woman like Indri.


    But Hartono suddenly intervened in this matter. What really happened?


    They couldn’t go against the Adipamungkas Family who were the rulers of this city. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to live in this city anymore.


    Heri and Nita sat opposite Hartono and Budi, bowing politely.


    Without waiting for the others to speak, Hartono took the initiative to speak first. “I heard you guys don’t want Liam and Indri to get married. Is that true?”


    The tant question made Heri and Nita feel embarrassed.


    Whatever the answer would be, the couple would still sound guilty. They didn’t want to insult Indri, but they didn’t want to sacrifice their son’s future either.


    Budi rolled his eyes in annoyance and said, “I know you guys want a daughter-inw from a better family than ours. Although our family is not as good as before, Indri is not that bad. As long as we can be a family, we will be mutually beneficial to each other. Besides, Indri is pregnant with your son’s child now.”


    Budi sighed and continued. “You guys have seen the news out there too. I just feel bad when I see it, especially for you. Come to think of it, as long as we be one family, those unpleasant rumors will disappear. Wouldn’t that be profitable for ourpany?”


    Budi looked at the two people in front of him with a sincere look while pouring tea for them.


    Heri didn’t say anything. But it was clear on his face that he was deep in thought. Even his eyes were twitching.


    He was aware of their current situation. Even though Christian had helped them, the condition of the Jaya Familypany had not returned to its original state and they were still not in a good condition.


    That’s because the news about Indri and Liam was still circting out there.


    If he wants to solve hispany’s problems, he must follow Budi’s advice.


    Hartono looked at him and said, “I know Christian is working with you for a while, to solve yourpany’s problems. But you should also know that it is not a long term solution. Plus, ourpany also has our own projects. We were forced to waste money on you.”


    The sentence was like an insult that was exposed in the face of Heri and Nita, making them feel embarrassed and also annoyed.


    Unfortunately, Hartono did not care at all. Why did he care about the feelings of the two people in front of him?


    Budi’s eyes were filled with madness as well as anticipation. Soon, his goal will be achieved.


    Budi continues to try to persuade Heri and Nita, “If we unite our families, we will get many benefits. Besides, we can’t continue to depend on others, can we?”


    Hartono chimed in at the right time, “Relying on a woman for money from the Adipamungkas Family is a truly formidable ability.”


    Heri and Nita immediately frowned upon hearing this. It was clear that Hartono was making fun of them.


    “We don’t understand why you said that. Isn’t the cooperation between ourpanies a serious matter?”
