For the past few moments, Pedro had been sitting anxiously in the waiting room right in front of the operating room. Even Pedro had stood up a few times to pace around the operating room, but his heart was still unsettled. Pedro then glanced towards the operating room in front of him."Why is it taking so long," Pedro muttered, seeming impatient to hear the outcome of Camila's surgery. Until finally, not long after, the door opened, prompting Pedro to approach the doctor who had just come out of the room."How is it, doc?" Pedro asked, causing the doctor to remove the mask still attached to his face."Everything went smoothly, the surgery was successful. The patient will be taken directly to the recovery room," the doctor answered, making Pedro sigh in relief that the surgery had finally gone smoothly. After that, Pedro looked towards Camila, who was still unconscious, being pushed by several nurses to the recovery room, while Pedro followed behind. Currently, Camila had been placed,
Pedro promptly parked his car in the garage of his house. He then went to pull the door handle, but his movement halted when Camila showed no intention of getting out of the car yet."Why?" Pedro asked, causing Camila to gaze at him hesitantly."How about we go to my apartment instead," Camila suggested, causing Pedro to exhale deeply. Just a few hours ago, they had a lengthy debate about where Camila would stay temporarily after the surgery. Today, Camila was indeed allowed to leave the hospital, but the doctor advised her to still be cautious as her wound had not fully healed. Pedro suggested that Camila stay at his house temporarily so he could monitor her and take care of her more freely than if she were alone in her apartment."Didn't we discuss a few hours ago that I didn't allow you to return to the apartment alone? It's better for you to stay at my house for now. That way, I can take care of you more attentively," Pedro's words made Camila silent."I can take care of myself. B
Camila descended the stairs, tightening the scarf wrapped around her shoulders. As she walked, Camila continued to survey the large house that was now her residence. Camila's current destination was Pedro's side garden, visible from her room on the second floor, piquing her curiosity about the garden. Previously, Pedro had never taken Camila around his house, leading Camila to mistakenly enter several other rooms before finding her way to the side garden on her last attempt.Camila gazed at the vast garden, overgrown with grass, and there were several flower pots that had begun to wither and might soon die, causing Camila to sigh deeply. It was a shame that the beautiful plants were left unattended. Pedro must not have much time to take care of them, to the point where the plants seemed neglected, Camila thought. Camila's thoughts halted when suddenly a familiar voice sounded from behind, prompting Camila to turn around."What are you doing here?" Pedro asked, also scanning his expans
Pedro fell silent, not responding to Camila's words at all. "What if I ask you to cancel all your plans?" Pedro suddenly said, catching Camila slightly off guard with his request, as from the beginning Pedro had said he wouldn't impose his will or change the plans already made by Camila."I can't just cancel my trip, especially since my aunt has arranged everything for me. She seems excited because I finally decided to move to California to be close to her," Camila said, once again causing Pedro to just lower his gaze, so Camila couldn't see the expression currently on Pedro's face, whether he felt sad, disappointed, or angry."I'm sorry," and those were the only words Camila could say to Pedro, making Pedro look back at Camila with a thin smile."You don't need to apologize. Didn't I know from the beginning that you were going to leave? My request earlier was just my foolish request, so don't ever take it seriously," Pedro said, making Camila just stay silent. Somehow, on the other h
Leo's hand movement halted as the door to his office swung wide open without even a knock, and Leo could already guess who the person entering his room without any manners was. Who else but his secretary and trusted aide.Pedro walked clumsily towards Leo, carrying several folders, and then placed them directly in front of Leo. "This is the last task for you," Pedro said, exhaling deeply, causing Leo to raise an eyebrow at his friend. Pedro then sat directly across from Leo, facing him and leaning back in his chair, closing his eyes and tilting his head upwards towards the ceiling of Leo's office."You look tired. Yet, as the owner of the company, I must have more work than you," Leo said, looking back at the flat screen in front of him, while Pedro began to straighten up. "While you may own the company, I handle more work. If you only receive the finished product from me, while I have to handle it from the bottom before those documents reach you, can you imagine how tired I am?" Pedr
Pedro fell silent, contemplating all of Leo's suggestions. Even just imagining the word "marriage" made Pedro's heart warm, let alone truly feeling someone living alongside him, causing Pedro to unconsciously purse his lips."Pedro, Pedro," someone said, waving their hand right in front of Pedro's face, causing him to blink and look towards Camila, who was now staring at him with a furrowed brow."Is the food not good?" Camila asked, making Pedro shake his head while looking at the food in front of him."No, I meant the food. It's really delicious, you're very skilled at cooking," Pedro said, making Camila purse her lips."Are you upset because I suddenly used your kitchen without asking for your permission first?" Camila asked, making Pedro shake his head."No, you're free to do anything in this house," Pedro said, making Camila fall silent."Then why the look on your face, you seem preoccupied?" Camila asked, making Pedro sigh."Forgive me, everything I'm thinking about really has n
Camila, who was engrossed in watching the drama she had been eagerly anticipating, was suddenly startled when Pedro sat right next to her, causing Camila to furrow her brow as she glanced at him."Aren't you supposed to be resting?" Camila asked, making Pedro nod briefly."Well, I was planning to rest, but it turns out I'm not sleepy yet, so I thought I'd just keep you company and watch with you," Pedro said, causing Camila to fall silent and choose to return her gaze to the flat screen in front of her. Of course, at the moment, she was watching a romantic drama about love. Camila wasn't sure if Pedro would like the drama she was currently watching, but several minutes passed and Pedro remained faithfully seated beside her, not budging at all, causing Camila to hesitantly glance at Pedro who was focused on the movie in front of him. Could he actually enjoy films like this with a romantic drama vibe? Camila wondered as she looked at him with raised eyebrows, but from his appearance, Pe
Pedro stared at Camila with furrowed brows."What's wrong? I'm just giving my opinion on the movie we're watching," Pedro said, causing Camila to sigh deeply."I'm not blaming you for having an opinion about this movie, but can we not judge them based solely on scenes like that?" Camila said, feeling like Pedro was intentionally bringing up such scenes."What's wrong with that?" Pedro asked, seemingly wanting to corner Camila further."I don't know, but it's better if we just go back to watching. Besides, the scene has already passed. Look, they're not kissing anymore," Camila said, then fell silent while looking at Pedro, who was staring at her mischievously. Somehow, she had clearly mentioned the scene, making Camila close her eyes in embarrassment."You're the one who mentioned the scene so explicitly. Alright, now that they're done with their acting, I'm curious. What if we do it now?" Pedro suddenly said, making Camila widen her eyes."What?" Camila said, but her words were cut o
This time, Camila walked while holding her uncle's hand, Charlotte's husband. He was a tall man, with blonde hair and striking blue eyes, leading her towards the altar, where Pedro was waiting for her with a beaming smile, making Camila's heart beat faster. Even if Danmonte didn't hold Camila's hand tightly, she would have stepped on her long dress several times because of nervousness. Somehow, his slow steps felt very fast.Until finally, they arrived right in front of the altar, where Pedro immediately reached out his hand, causing Camila to reach out her hand and greet him, prompting Pedro to immediately pull Camila up to the altar, where they would make their sacred vows for a lifetime, witnessed by some important guests attended only by friends and the closest people to Pedro and Camila.Making the sacred vows for life, always faithful in joy or sorrow, always faithful in sickness and in health, they expressed their vows wholeheartedly, living to complement each other until death
Camila stared at the large mirror in front of her, her heart pounding, unable to believe what she was seeing. Her body was now adorned in a beautiful long white dress, clinging gracefully to her figure, accompanied by makeup enhancing her face. This made Camila purse her lips, finally gazing upon herself as the bride she had dreamed of becoming.Her reverie was interrupted when someone entered, causing Camila to smile broadly. "Aunt," Camila said, as Charlotte walked in wearing a white dress clinging to her body as Pedro had described. Although her aunt was in her fifties, she truly looked like a woman in her thirties. Charlotte then approached Camila, looking at her niece with teary eyes."I never imagined my niece, whom I've taken care of since she was little, would grow up to be so beautiful, even becoming a stunning bride," Charlotte said, making Camila blush, only able to lower her head. Charlotte then reached out her hand and lifted Camila's face."You're truly beautiful. Just l
Pedro, Camila, Leo, and Alana are currently discussing the plans for Pedro and Camila's wedding, which will be held one week from now after Leo called Alana enthusiastically, who immediately agreed and promised to prepare the wedding for them. Alana asked Leo to bring Pedro and Camila to their home, and this is where they are currently discussing the dream wedding that Pedro and Camila have been longing for."I think it's better to do it indoors," Pedro said, but Camila immediately shook her head."No, I think it will be more sacred and special if we do it outdoors," Camila said, causing Pedro to turn and look at her."Darling, if we do it outdoors, the weather isn't always favorable, sometimes it rains, sometimes it's hot. Do you want our wedding blessing to suddenly be interrupted by rain? What about the guests and others? We can't just rush to avoid the rain, can we?" Pedro said, making Camila pinch his cheek playfully."But isn't there a tent we can use for outdoor events?" Camila
Leo barged straight into Pedro's room, suddenly, without even knocking, and saw Pedro looking like he hadn't slept for a week."What's up with you? Suddenly applying for leave for next week? Where are you going for a whole week?" Leo asked, seeing the leave letter submitted by his secretary."And what about you? You look really disheveled," Leo asked Pedro again, who was now sitting in front of him."Can I ask for your help?" Pedro suddenly asked, causing Leo to look at him with raised eyebrows."Looks like my guess was right, you've got a problem?" Leo guessed again."It's not really a big problem. I don't know, I could call it a problem or a blessing," Pedro said, making Leo just stare at him with a questioning look, wondering what he meant."A few days ago, after the dinner event at your place, I immediately called Camila's aunt and told her about my intention to propose to her, and also said that Camila's trip to California was canceled. And unexpectedly, she flew here right away
Pedro and Camila sat in silence, their faces tense as they occasionally glanced at the woman in front of them who was looking around."Is this your house?" the middle-aged woman in front of them asked."Yes, this is my house," Pedro answered, still with a tense atmosphere on their faces."What do you do to afford such a big house?" she asked again, making Camila immediately look at Pedro, then turning back to the woman sitting in front of her, a fashionable middle-aged woman who still looked like she was in her thirties, she was Camila's aunt named Charlotte."Aunt, Pedro is a secretary at Samudra Group. Do you know about that big company?" Camila asked, trying to explain a little bit about Pedro. After returning from dinner at Leo's house the next day, Camila and Pedro planned to tell Charlotte about their relationship. And what they didn't expect was that Charlotte immediately flew over to meet Camila and Pedro. Of course, she didn't agree with Camila's sudden plan. Charlotte said t
Pedro stopped his car right outside Leo's residence, but as he was about to step out of the car, Camila suddenly pulled the end of his jacket."Why?" Pedro asked, making Camila look at him with hesitation."I'm embarrassed," Camila said, making Pedro just purse his lips. Then, he reached out his hand and gently caressed Camila's cheek."Why be embarrassed? Weren't you very close to Alana before?" Pedro said, making Camila shake her head again."That's not what I'm thinking about. I'm embarrassed to meet Mr. Leo and to know that they already know about your proposal plans," Camila said, feeling anxious, making Pedro once again give her a reassuring smile. Pedro was captivated by the glow on both sides of his future wife's face, looking very beautiful tonight after Pedro had truly explained all his plans to Leo, even though Leo had guessed them beforehand. But Leo pretended not to know and treated the news as a surprise. That's why Leo and Alana decided to invite Pedro and Camila for di
Pedro fell silent, gazing at Camila who now only lowered her head."What does that shake of your head mean? Is it a sign that you're rejecting my proposal?" Pedro asked, causing Camila to raise her face again, looking into Pedro's pleading eyes."It's not like that," Camila said, causing Pedro to raise an eyebrow."Then what's your answer?" Pedro asked."Of course, I would gladly accept your proposal, but there's something bothering me. I'm still not sure about what you feel for me. It's hard to believe that you could declare your proposal so quickly, especially when we still have two weeks to get to know each other," Camila said, unable to meet Pedro's gaze as he now only looked at their intertwined fingers."Love doesn't require much time to settle in someone's heart. Imagine, initially I didn't think I would develop feelings for you, but when I learned about your feelings for me, I started to open my heart. And I also feel surprised, usually I never easily open my heart to other wo
Pedro stared at Camila with furrowed brows."What's wrong?
