Who doesn't want to be Beautiful?

When the birds chirp, the morning sun will come again, sneaking into Abel's room on the second floor through the window. Today, Abel will job interview at his new company; she occasionally sighs to prepare himself properly.

Today she chose a shirt with a blue theme. The white shirt inside, the royal blue blazer will soon wrap around the shirt, and the midnight blue pants make her seem more expensive.

She had carried a Hermes brand bag to go downstairs immediately and the car keys in his hand.

"Breakfast first," said Diana.

"No, ma'am, I already feel the body is too fat."

Since the change was very drastic, Abel took care of his diet so she didn't look fat in the slightest, so she was willing not to eat when his stomach needed food intake.

The car had already eroded the road; the traffic jams in the capital city made her very tired because she was almost an hour and a half on the road. When Abel turned on the radio to kill time, she heard a song from his high school days, making her a little nostalgic for those scary times.

"My love has no hope, the moans of romance want me to go back to my teenage years ...," a song sung by Eva Celia made her mind focus on one of her serious life problems in high school.

For most people, high school was the most fun thing, but those words seemed to be dismissed by her; his gloomy high school days almost made him commit suicide.

Suppose you know the main character of the telenovela Yo Soy Betty. In that case, La Fea (the name character in telenovelas) is Abel's physical description during high school. His above-average weight makes her an easy target for ridicule, and another thick book is always in his hands. It also makes her look even more geeky, unlike girls in general.

The horn sounded several times from the car directly behind Abel, the red light had turned green, and Abel still hadn't started his car.

She immediately stepped on the gas; thoughts of the past made her unlucky again.

Arriving in front of the building, Abel immediately directed his car towards the parking lot. She did not expect a security guard to give a code because the parking lot was full.

"Sorry, Miss. The parking lot is full."

Abel immediately opened the window of his car; her beautiful charm made the security guard directly treat her well.

"If I switch to the VIP parking, will you?" the security guard immediately kindly provided a solution so that Abel could park at the VIP.

Abel has finished parking in the parking business. Abel went straight up to the twentieth floor to meet Airlangga to lead him to the CEO's room of this company. Abel smoothed his hair; his long bangs slightly covered his face.

The elevator took them both to the twentieth floor. Abel and Airlangga walked through every room of the division in his office. Seeing the arrival of Abel and Airlangga made them rise from their seats and immediately pay their respects to Airlangga.

With firm fingers, Airlangga opened the door, which said, Chief Executive Officer. Abel's heart beat faster than before; he still didn't expect to be recruited by a big company.

Abel's brows immediately furrowed when she saw the nameplate on the CEO's desk; she was trying to make sure that the name in front of her now wasn't the same person she was in the past.

"Wait a minute," said Airlangga as he stepped into a small room.

After waiting a few minutes, Abel's eyes widened when she saw the company's CEO who recruited her. Really! This is like a dream!

A well-built man with muscles around his chest and arms, smooth hair, and a distinctive face of Saudi Arabian descent further strengthened the nameplate he had just seen.

"Alexander Khan." Abel glanced at the nameplate and image of the boy who had coldly rejected her in high school. The memory boggled his mind now; she did not expect to meet again with the man who had humiliated the same school.

Abel took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind so there would be no chaos on the first day he met the CEO of this company. He also thought Alexander would not recognize him either.

On the other hand, Alex sighed long when he saw a beautiful woman, like a princess from the British occupation; he didn't expect his brother, whom he ordered to obey everything.

Alex immediately straightened his black suit and tie; his eyes didn't seem to want to blink when he saw the woman sitting gracefully in his office.

Airlangga gave a map in the form of a work contract; Alex's sturdy fingers opened the map and gave Airlangga a code to get out because the job interview was about to start.

There was a slight pressure on Abel every time she looked at his current interlocutor; the image didn't seem to want to go away.

"Introduce your name," said Alex starting the interview.

"Gabriella Cantika."

Abel said his name aloud, but Alex didn't seem to remember himself, so it was a matter of gratitude for Abel. For almost 30 minutes, Abel was in the room like she had rapped in the past.

"Well. You can work today."

Not long after, there was a woman with an already enlarged pregnancy.

"Introducing Natasya, my former secretary. Today you learn all about this company and me from her because tomorrow she won't come to work anymore," Alex ordered. His black eyes stared at Abel's eyes with admiration.

Abel breathed a sigh of relief as she followed Natasya to the secretary's room which was not far from the principal director's room.

"This is the room you will use every day. For that, a door can connect with Mr. Alex so that we don't have to bother going out to deliver files. And these are all personal needs you should know about him," he said softly, full of thoroughness and patience to train Abel.

"So every month, we have to provide an analysis of the progress of the ongoing project. One of the projects is in Saudi Arabia…," while listening to Natasya speak, Abel's mind continued to has filled with that image.

"Why do I have to be reunited with this bastard?" Abel muttered in his heart.

Abel nodded at every quote that Natasya understood while reading every file he showed.

"For Alex's personal needs, Alex must be served black coffee without sugar every morning, don't forget it because he will be furious."

So is this the right time to get revenge on the past?
