Dave seems to have serious problems managing his emotions and handling the pressures of his job. His abusive treatment of subordinates and habit of throwing things when angry are signs that he needs professional help to better manage his emotions and stress. It could also be an indication that the work environment in her company may not be healthy, with verbal or physical abuse from superiors being accepted as normal. Chloe, as Dave's responsible mother, felt the need to step in to help Dave and ensure that the work environment was safer and healthier for all employees.
After Chloe walks into Dave's workspace, she sees a chaotic situation with items scattered around and a tense atmosphere. Dave was visibly angry, shouting for no apparent reason. Chloe approached her son with cautious steps, trying to calm the situation.
"Dave, what's going on here? Why are you so angry?" asked Chloe in a soft voice, trying to calm Dave's emotions.
Dave turned to his mother with a face still full of anger. "They are all incompetent! All the plans and attempts I've made have failed. It's all getting frustrating!" Dave replied in a high tone.
Chloe was concerned to see her son's state of stress and anger. "Dave, you need to calm down. Getting angry won't solve the problem. Let's sit down together and talk about what really happened," Chloe pleaded while trying to put her arm around Dave to calm him down.
However, Dave rudely refused. "I don't want to talk! I'm the boss here!" exclaimed Dave as he stood up straight, showing his stubbornness and inability to accept help.
Chloe was saddened to see her son sink further into his anxiety and emotional instability. She felt the need to take further steps to help Dave overcome his problems.
"Dave! I'm going to call a counselor to help us resolve this issue. We need to work together to find a good solution," Chloe said firmly but lovingly.
Dave still looked stubborn, but he felt a little relieved by his mother's supportive presence. He knew that he was not alone in facing his problems.
In the next room, Secretary Lan overheard their conversation and was relieved that action was finally being taken to help Dave. Although she never showed Dave any sympathy or respect, she still hoped that things could get better in the company and that there would be a healthier working environment for all employees.
With the help of a counselor and the support of his family, Dave would have a chance to overcome his problems and improve his relationships with his coworkers and subordinates.
Chloe sighed deeply, frustrated by Dave's stubbornness that seemed unwilling to listen to her advice. However, she could not remain silent as the company and her son's situation worsened.
"Dave, you need to open your eyes! Eve may not be as good as you think. She could be a threat to the company and to all of us," Chloe said in a firm but concerned tone.
However, Dave remained adamant. "Eve loves me very much. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't betray me," Dave argued vehemently.
Chloe felt desperate. She knew that she couldn't impose her will on Dave, but she also couldn't sit back and watch her company and family crumble because of Dave's reckless decision.
Meanwhile, Eve who had just arrived and was about to enter Dave's room accidentally listened to the mother and daughter's conversation from behind the door. Her body was trembling. Her heart felt increasingly uneasy. She realized that her presence in the company might no longer be safe, especially after hearing Chloe warn Dave about her. Eve knew that she had to act quickly to protect herself.
Without hesitation, Eve made the decision to contact Arthur. She knew that Arthur was a reliable person and probably the only hope for her to get out of this situation unharmed.
"Eve, what's going on?" asked Arthur in a feigned worried tone when he received Eve's call.
"Can you pick me up, Artha! I'm not feeling well," Eve replied. She told him about all the conversations she had overheard between Dave and Chole.
"Eve, you need to get out of there. I'll pick you up," Arthur replied firmly, without any further explanation.
Eve was relieved to hear those words. She knew that she was not alone and that Arthur would protect her. With a pounding heart, she got ready to face whatever would happen next.
In the darkness of the night that enveloped the city, Arthur came in his car to pick Eve up. He saw Eve's agitated state and immediately opened the car door for her.
"Eve, get in quickly! We need to get out of here as soon as possible," Arthur said in a serious voice, indicating that the situation was very serious.
Eve didn't ask much. She just nodded and quickly got into the car, feeling relieved that she was no longer alone in dealing with this difficult situation. being too frantic, she didn't even realize that this time the car Arthur was using was not the same car he gave her.
Arthur pulled his car out of the parking lot quickly, trying to leave the company as far away as possible. However, in his heart, he was also looking forward to seeing Dave's destruction of what he had done through Eve.
"Are you sure about your plan to continue living with me after this, Eve?" Arthur asked, trying to figure out what was on Eve's mind.
Eve nodded slowly. "I'm very sure, Artha. As long as it's with you and away from Dave, I'm very sure. Please take me as far away as possible. I'm really scared if you don't really take me."
Arthur flashed a triumphant smile. Naturally, seeing the fear on Eve's face, there was a sense of satisfaction in his heart. Yes, slowly but surely. The revenge he took for Dave and Eve began to be carried out according to his plan.
"Don't worry, Eve. I will always be there for you. We will finish this together, and after this nothing will separate us," Arthur said, acting as if he was sympathetic to Eve's situation.
Eve smiled happily. Although she still felt worried about her safety, Arthur's presence made her feel a little better. Eve felt that Arthur was true to his promise to get her out of Dave's clutches.
After some time had passed, Arthur took Eve to a hotel. In addition to acting as if he cared, without Eve knowing that Arthur was also trying to devise a plan for her to be destroyed with Dave.
"For the time being and for your own good, it's best to stay here," Arthur said as he opened the door for Eve.
"Thank you, Artha! I'm really lucky to be your lover," Eve replied as she leaned her head on Arthur's shoulder.
When they entered the hotel room, Eve felt relieved. The anxiety she had felt turned into a sense of calm and comfort. She looked at Arthur with deep gratitude as she continued to unravel a radiant smile.
"Thank you again, Artha! I don't know what I would do without you," Eve said in a sincere voice.
Arthur returned Eve's smile as he gave her a gentle touch on her smooth cheek. "You don't need to thank me, Eve. Didn't I promise to protect you. In fact, I should be grateful to you for your great sacrifice for me," Arthur replied.
Suddenly, Arthur's words just now seemed to make Eve levitate. The woman gave a warm hug to the man she thought loved her sincerely.
"It's better now that you rest for a while. Tomorrow we can think about the next step."
Eve nodded in agreement, feeling relieved that she was not alone in facing this difficult situation. Although Eve had been invited to sleep in the same bed, Arthur refused Eve's invitation. Arthur chose to sleep on the sofa. After all, being next to Eve made him sick and always reminded him of the betrayal of his former fiancée.
Eve continued to stare at Arthur's face as he drifted off to sleep. Until finally, Eve followed Arthur into dreamland.
On a sunny morning, sunlight streamed in through the hotel room window, greeting them warmly. Eve and Arthur woke up with renewed vigor, ready to face whatever was to come.
After a shower and a light breakfast, they sat together to plan their next move. In front of Eve, Arthur pretends to be trying to contact some contacts in the industry to find out if there are any job opportunities for Eve elsewhere. He did all of this to make sure that Eve was convinced that what he had promised was true. And, of course, Eve is easier for him to control in carrying out his revenge against Dave.
All this time, Eve has been working for the Great Food Company. In fact, since Dave took over, her position has become quite important. And now she is ready to leave that position because she can no longer stand by Dave's side. Even though she chose to betray Arthur for that position. What a joke.
After a while of pretending to be busy with the phone, Arthur finally turned to Eve with a confident smile. "Eve, I've gotten some job options that might suit you elsewhere. I'll arrange a meeting with some companies for you."
Eve smiled happily at the good news. She felt relieved that Arthur cared about her so much and was willing to help her find a new job. Without suspecting anything about Arthur's hidden plans, she felt closer to him.
"Thank you so much, Artha. I'm really lucky to have you here," Eve said sincerely, unaware that Arthur had other motives behind his actions.
Arthur smiled with satisfaction. He knew that his plan had worked, and now he could move on to the next step in his revenge against Dave. With Eve more and more enamored with him, he could use her as much as he wanted without any resistance, before it was time for him to dispose of her if she was no longer useful.
