Leo sighed, closing his book and placing it on the nightstand. "Alana, it's not like that. I'm busy with work, and you know I have responsibilities as a boss," Leo explained, looking at her with a mix of annoyance and understanding.

"Busy or not, that doesn't give you the right to ignore your wife, especially in front of someone like Selena," Alana retorted, her frustration evident in her voice. "I'm not asking for much, just a little acknowledgment."

Leo remained silent for a moment, his expression unreadable. "I didn't mean to upset you. If I did, I apologize," he finally said, his tone sincere.

Alana sighed, realizing Leo's genuine apology. "It's just that... I want to feel important to you, not like an afterthought," she admitted, her gaze softening.

Leo reached out to hold her hand, "You are important to me, Alana. I might not always show it, but I appreciate everything you do." They shared a moment of quiet understanding before Leo added, "I'll try to be more mindful of your fee

    Leo nudged Alana's shoulder as she suddenly started nibbling her lips. "Why do you always attack me like this out of nowhere?" Leo exclaimed with irritation, causing Alana to roll her eyes."If I asked you nicely, would you let me kiss you?" Alana's response left Leo momentarily speechless."I can already guess, you'll never let me kiss your husband freely. Lucky are the wives out there with understanding husbands," grumbled Alana, growing more frustrated.Alana tried to move away from Leo, having indirectly rejected the offered kiss, but Lady Luck seemed to favor her when Leo once again stopped her."Stop sulking like children. I'm just asking, why do you always kiss suddenly? Do you have a sudden-kissing syndrome or something?" Leo teased, making Alana burst into laughter."Yes, let's consider it that way. But most importantly, I don't do it with just any man. No, I only do it with my husband. For me, my answer is enough to allow me to kiss you anytime," Alana said with a wink, maki

    Alana lowered her face upon the arrival of two women who were now chatting with Leo in the family room. Meanwhile, she sat there, listening, occasionally sipping the now-cold tea."I didn't expect you to get married so soon. Aunt thought you would wait for Selena," Miranda's comment caught Alana's attention. Alana looked towards her, and Miranda also looked at Alana as if her words were directed at her."Hasn't Selena found a good man already?" Leo said, seemingly not denying Miranda's earlier statement. It was as if Leo agreed that he was waiting for Selena. Alana shifted her gaze with irritation."Yes, Aunt regrets that mistake because Aunt accepted that scoundrel who hurt this beautiful niece of hers," Miranda said, stroking Selena's long hair. Selena held Miranda's hand, indicating that she didn't need to tell anything to Leo."It's okay, dear. Leo needs to know that your ex left you for those rich aunts who funded and propelled him," Miranda said, making Leo put down his tea cup

    Alana had just come out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe wrapped around her. She was about to step towards the Dressroom, but Alana halted when she remembered something."I think I forgot something," Alana said, making Leo, who was staring at his phone screen, look towards Alana, still in a bathrobe with wet hair."What did you forget?" Leo asked, then returned his gaze to his phone screen. Alana then walked towards the side of the bed, where Leo was, leaning her back against the headboard."I lodge a protest. Why didn't you tell me that Selena and her mother are moving today?" Alana asked, making Leo finally put his phone on the nightstand."Haven't I told you before that they would move here?""But you didn't explain that it would be today.""So what if it's today? Are you going to welcome them with a small party?" Leo asked, making Alana roll her eyes. Of course not. How could Alana do that when she didn't even agree with the two women staying in their house?"No, it's just that

    "Forget it, because I'm sure you won't believe my words. You'll probably consider my words just manipulative tricks that Rose and I planned," Alana said. After that, trying to close her eyes, Alana could already guess everything Leo was thinking about her. From the beginning, when Leo stared at her the first time they met, Alana knew that Leo would never trust her because behind their marriage was Aunt Rose who orchestrated it. Alana didn't understand why Leo hated Aunt Rose so much, who, according to Alana, was a very kind woman.Alana was about to clear her mind again, but she could feel her face being turned, making Alana look up and immediately gaze back at Leo."Can I trust you?" Leo asked, making Alana silent."Can I be someone you trust?" Alana said, returning the question Leo had thrown."Everything is very easy; you just have to accept me as your wife, not just on paper, and you can trust me. Maybe, for now, I don't know, I can love you or not. Yes, but I will cherish the sac

    Leo observed Alana, still curled up in bed, while he was ready in his suit behind his desk."How are you?" Leo asked, swiveling his wheelchair toward Sisi's bed where Alana lay. "Still feeling unwell," Alana replied with a weak voice."Aren't you suffocating under that thick blanket?" Leo asked again, prompting Alana to finally uncover herself, looking at Leo with a pitiful expression."Why?" Leo inquired."Are you disappointed?" Alana asked, making Leo chuckle. "Isn't it you who seems more disappointed here?" Leo guessed, and Alana nodded."Yes, you're right. I'm very disappointed. Why did my period have to come last night?" Alana expressed her frustration, then tousled her hair. Alana felt genuinely upset as Lady Luck seemed not entirely on her side."Do you want breakfast downstairs or in the room?" Leo asked, noting Alana's slight fatigue."I want breakfast with you," Alana said, making Leo pause, prompting him to reopen his thick blanket."Why, don't you want to have breakfast wi

    Alana blinked her eyes as her phone continued to ring."I'm still sleepy," Alana grumbled, then reached out to feel the location of her phone."Who is it?" Alana asked in her husky voice."It's me, Camila," someone from the other end said, making Alana mumble."What, Camila?" Alana asked, still unwilling to open her eyes, just pressing the phone to her ear. Alana then hugged the bolster pillow that kept her company during sleep, as there was no one she usually embraced while asleep. Of course, this was during working hours when Leo was in an important meeting at the office."What's up, Camila?" Alana asked again, having sat up."Some people came and brought the new store furniture, supposedly ordered by Madam," Camila said, making Alana immediately open her eyes."They're here now? Aren't they supposed to come the day after tomorrow?" Alana asked again, already getting out of bed. However, a few steps later, Alana winced again as her stomach still felt uncomfortable, but she continued

    Leo leaned back in his wheelchair, massaging his temples slowly. The two-hour meeting had truly drained him mentally. There were some issues with the new project Reno was handling, and Leo had to get involved. Moreover, when Leo entered his office, Pedro immediately presented him with a stack of white papers that seemed to have disappeared from Leo's desk at some point. Leo felt those papers could reproduce themselves, as his desk never seemed to be free from that pile. Leo was about to reach for one of the files he needed to sign when suddenly, someone knocked on his office door."Come in," Leo said, revealing Miranda, who was smiling at him."Is Aunt here?" Leo asked, causing Miranda to walk towards the sofa, and Leo reluctantly approached her, leaving his breakfast that Pedro had provided."I was bored at home earlier, and I had the idea to see Selena's first day at work. So, here I am," Miranda said, making Leo nod."Have you met Selena?" Leo asked again."Yes, she was chatting wi

    Slowly, Alana began to open her eyes as her vision blurred, looking around. She took a deep breath and tightly closed her eyes again. After a few attempts, Alana could finally see clearly the ceiling of her room and also Leo."Are you awake?" someone with a familiar deep voice asked, making Alana shift her gaze to the side, where Leo was right beside the bed, holding her hand. "What happened to me?" Alana asked weakly."You were found unconscious in the car. What happened?" Leo asked again, causing Alana to fall silent. She tried to recall the events she had experienced earlier. Alana's memories started to flood her mind. She remembered stopping her car on the side of the road when her stomach began to cramp again, and her head started throbbing. At that moment, Alana planned to go home because she forgot her anti-cramp medication and didn't bring her phone. But why could Leo find her, wondered Alana, and she immediately looked at Leo."How did you find me? I don't think I had my phon

    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? 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

    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
