After persuading the woman several times, Riki finally managed to convince her not to jump off the roof of the building.

Now Riki was catching his breath, which was racing, because the woman had resisted.

The woman, sitting in the chair where Riki had been sitting, sipped Riki's coffee to calm herself down.

Riki himself sat on the floor, leaning his back against the wall. He felt exhausted just from stopping one woman, who turned out to be strong enough to resist.

"If you're that strong, why couldn't you resist when that man harassed you?" asked Riki.

The woman turned to Riki, looking annoyed.

"So you think I didn't try to fight back? He threatened to fire me, of course I was scared. Finding a job with a good salary isn't that easy these days. That jerk hired me because I'm pretty, I know that... but he got angry because I didn't want him to touch me. So he tried all kinds of ways to trap me. I fought back, and just when I was about to succeed, his wife came. She was angry, but not at her husband, but at me. She even hit me and yelled at me for seducing her husband. Of course, I couldn't accept that. I was the victim there, and—"

"Enough! You can tell me everything later. Let's go to my room."

Riki stood up because he was very hungry and he was sure his order had arrived.

"Are you going to harass me too?" asked the woman, her voice trembling. She was really scared, and Riki realized he was also a man. Perhaps after being harassed, she thought other men were just as bad.

"If you don't want to have breakfast with me, that's fine. However, I'm sure you're hungry too. I ordered quite a lot of food, so join me if you want to eat, if not, you can just go back home," offered Riki.

The woman looked hesitant at first, but then she followed Riki, taking Riki's coffee cup with her.

As she followed Riki, the woman realized that the person she was following was the owner of the building. The man everyone always talked about, especially the female employees, especially the younger women.

They said the building owner was a very handsome, sexy, and attractive young man.

The woman, Irene, thought that was all exaggerated. Because there couldn't possibly be such a perfect person in this world.

Most of the men Irene encountered around her were rich but not attractive at all. Or handsome men who had nothing else to offer.

It was rare to find a man who was handsome, wealthy, well-mannered, and also cared about others.

But it turned out that it wasn't just a figment of her imagination.

Riki Khaizer was real.

Handsome, kind-hearted, charming, and wealthy.

In fact, many women or girls would gladly give themselves to a man like that. But the reality is that a perfect man like Riki would never do anything sleazy.

Still, Irene had to be careful. Because again, the reality is that no human is perfect.

"Sit down—oh, I think the food has arrived, you wait here."

Riki smiled at Irene, then opened the door for the delivery person bringing the food.

Oh no, Irene felt her heart racing just from the smile of the young man who was a few years younger than her. Irene was very worried she would be charmed by him, because it was impossible for a man like Riki to like Irene. Irene just didn't want to get her heart broken for the umpteenth time.

Women like Irene always liked someone who was difficult for her to reach. Meanwhile, disgusting men kept approaching her.

Riki returned, carrying a lot of food.

"Wait here, I'll call my friends," said Riki.

Irene just nodded, staring at Riki.

In fact, Riki had a good posture. He was over 185 cm tall, or was it 190 cm? Irene didn't know.

What was certain was that Riki was very tall.

Riki returned to the previous room. He clicked his tongue in annoyance when he saw Jean, who had gone back to sleep on the bed instead of getting up.

Riki pulled their blankets off, causing them to scream and complain to Riki that they were cold.

"Wake up, you two! Look outside—there's a woman who needs our help," Riki said.

Hearing that, both of them immediately got up.

They rushed to clean themselves up in the bathroom, not wanting to look foolish in front of a woman.

While waiting for the two men, Riki returned to Irene.

"Sorry for the delay, my friends are hard to wake up. Oh, by the way, please help yourself to that food, because I know you must be hungry. If you want a drink, you can get one over there. Don't worry, no employees will come, it's still very early. They'll be here around eight o'clock," said Riki.

Irene nodded shyly, then ate the food Riki offered her. Coincidentally, she really liked the food, so she became more enthusiastic about finishing it.

"Thank God you didn't kill yourself, right? Oh yeah, what's your name?" asked Riki.

"Irene, Irene Ericko."

Riki fell silent upon hearing that name. He knew that sometimes one surname could be used by several families. However, Ericko was also his mother's surname.

He knew it was just a coincidence.

Not long after, Jake and Jean arrived. They were surprised to see Irene there. Both of them became very nervous and uncomfortable during breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, Irene went home. Riki told her to come to his office as soon as she ready. Riki would help Irene with her problem.

"What kind of problem does she have, Riki?" asked Jake.

"She almost committed suicide because she was sexually harassed by her boss, and she was immediately fired. It's a complicated story, but I might be able to help her," replied Riki.

Jake and Jean nodded in understanding.

"No wonder it's Irene," Jean muttered.

Riki furrowed his brow, "What's going on?"

"I used to work in the same office as Irene, right? And she was one of the most beautiful and desirable women among the male employees. But no one dared to approach her because the boss had his eye on her," said Jean.

Riki nodded, understanding. He could also see how beautiful Irene was. She had beautiful, porcelain-smooth skin. She also had a classic, yet interesting, type of beauty. She was the type of woman that every man would easily like. However, a woman like that, especially one who had no power or authority, would be easily trampled on by evil men.

"What if we spread the man's shame? You know I can hack, right?" asked Jean.

Riki raised an eyebrow, "Oh, you can do that?"

Jean smiled proudly, "Of course! I'm very proud of that one skill! I just can't use it because I'm afraid I'll use it for bad things."

Riki smiled broadly, "That's good, let's do it. Let's clean up this building at the same time. Because I don't like renting my building to men like that."

Jean grinned, "Sure thing, boss! Leave it to me!"

***

Around ten in the morning, Irene returned to her office. She still had to pack up all her belongings that were left there.

However, since she didn't have much, she carried everything in one cardboard box. Then she returned to Riki's office.

When she arrived, she was very confused.

It seemed like there was a commotion there.

"Excuse me, I want to see the boss here," Irene asked one of the employees there.

The employee was surprised to see Irene there, then pointed to the commotion.

"You mean boss Riki, right? He's over there," said the employee.

Irene approached the commotion and was shocked to see her boss there, begging at Riki's feet. Even that jerk was prostrating himself at Riki's feet.

"Please, boss Riki! Don't kick my company out of this building! Because I—"

"I don't care, you have to leave immediately. Tomorrow that place has to be empty, because there's no way I'm going to rent my office to a jerk like you. You even— oh, here she is, Irene, come here."

Riki, who saw Irene coming, immediately pulled her to his side, standing in front of the jerk.

"Do you think I should keep this guy and his office here?" asked Riki.

Irene looked at the man with disgust, her displeasure clearly visible on her face.

"Of course not, get him out of here quickly."

The man's eyes widened, then he stood up quickly.

"What did you say? You ungrateful woman! I took you in, gave you a good job. If it weren't for your pretty face, I would never have hired you, but this is how you repay me? Just because I touched you a little, you get angry? I know you're a seductress, look at this, now you're seducing the building owner to—"

Then, the sound of a loud slap filled the room.

Irene slapped the man so hard that he fell to the floor beneath her.
