After Mommy Erika left, Aura pondered. To some extent, Aura understood why Lionel made that decision, but perhaps she was slightly offended by Lionel's words, where he easily handed her over to Axel!
Aura was not an object! Aura had the right to choose who she wanted to continue her life with, right? Besides, Aura still didn't fully trust daddy Charles's words. His drastic change in attitude made Aura wary. Aura didn't want to be trapped. She didn't want her child to be raised by the Xavier family and kept away from her!Aura sighed tiredly, deciding to lie down. Regardless of her still wet hair, what Aura needed now was rest, so it was better to close her eyes for a moment. Maybe after this, her mind and heart could cooperate better!***Axel sat across from Lionel. After the chaos at the church. After explaining the foolish decision to the priest and his parents, Lionel decided to talk to Axel.Honestly, Lionel regretted it, but he would regret it even moreYeah, Lionel’s heart still feels the pain, but he’s somewhat relieved because he realizes this is the best for all of them. His heart may be wounded, but as time goes by, the wound will surely heal on its own. Lionel is confident that one day, a woman whom God has prepared for him will come, replacing Aura’s position. Yet, if not, Lionel didn't mind, as long as Aura was happy.Was he being naive? Perhaps! But Lionel only wanted the best for Aura."Thanks, Bro!"That was the first sincere expression of gratitude Axel had ever uttered. Weren't they usually more sarcastic towards each other?Lionel shrugged, unable to answer. He didn't want to be hypocritical. His heart was still bleeding! Still hurt! Deep wounds! And the wounds were not yet dry!"Promise me that you'll take care of Aura as best as you can. If you waste this opportunity that I've given with such difficulty, I won't hesitate to take Aura back from you. If that happens, I won't ever concede for t
Mommy Erika approached her husband, who was relaxing in the garden chair, accompanied by daddy Charles, like old friends who hadn't seen each other in a long time. Back then, during their first encounter, they met in rather unpleasant circumstances, though they didn’t argue."How's everything at home? Is it safe?" "Don't worry. Everything is fine, at least there won't be any bloodshed!" Mom Erika chuckled, feeling relieved as the fog that had surrounded her daughter's life for some time now seemed to be lifting. Turns bright."Thank goodness! Hopefully, they can resolve the issues and live happily together," sighed Daddy Daniel, full of hope. In his heart, Daddy Daniel hoped that his daughter's happiness would come soon. It was hard for him to see Aura's gloomy face constantly. As a parent, is it understandable that they hope Aura can live happily with the man she loves? They hope their daughter won’t be sad all the time anymore."Yes. Hopefully, they can live
Axel blinked, not expecting Aura to have such a negative thinking of his father.A hint of annoyance visited Axel's heart, but he tried to push it away. Considering what daddy Charles had done, it was understandable if Aura to still feel unsure! Axel couldn’t let himself be swayed by emotions. "Daddy would never trap anyone, Aura. If he didn't give his blessing, Daddy would say it openly, as he did before. He's a businessman, he'll say what's on his mind. Daddy is not cunning person!" Axel defended."You can speak like that because you're his son. It's understandable for you to defend him!" Aura grumbled. Axel sighed, trying to be patient."I'm not defending Daddy, Aura. I'm just stating what I know. I understand my dad's nature. He's always honest, both in business or in other matters!" Axel explained patiently. Aura scoffed, reluctant to believe."Tell me why you don't trust Daddy Charles?""I don't want to say it!""Why?""Because you're his son!"
Daddy Charles could clearly see the surprise on both Aura's and Axel's faces. Shocked by his sudden presence. Daddy Charles took a few steps forward, getting closer to Aura and Axel."Aura, I know it's hard for you to believe, but I swear by anything that I will never again interfere with your relationship. I've realized my mistakes in the past, I shouldn't have treated you so badly. It's understandable if you don't trust me now. But one thing you must know, I truly approve of your relationship. I hope both of you can be together and live happily with your little family. Now, that's my sincere wish," Daddy Charles explained at length. Aura fell silent, still unable to speak."I know what your concerns are. Probably about that agreement, right? I emphasize to you that the agreement is no longer valid, and I will destroy it today!"Aura looked up, gazing at Axel, who nodded slightly, hoping Aura would believe. Aura bit her lip and murmured softly,"What's the proof? Ho
Honestly, on one hand, Ji Hwan felt sorry because he realized that Lionel's decision to do something like that must have sacrificed all of his feelings! But on the other hand, Ji Hwan was grateful because Aura and Lionel didn't live in a forced marriage.Although Ji Hwan cared for Aura and Lionel as friends, but he realized that love could not be forced.Although Ji Hwan approved of Aura and Lionel's marriage, but he knew it might hurt the two people he loved.Although Ji Hwan often felt annoyed with Axel, but he realized that Axel was the one whom Aura loved wholeheartedly. And most importantly, Axel loves Aura!No matter how hard Lionel tries, Ji Hwan realizes that Aura won't be able to turn away from Axel. So, approving the relationship between Axel and Aura is indeed the best option. At least, only Lionel will be hurt, not all three of them. It might sound cruel, but what else can be done? Love can be cruel, right?Perhaps he seems indecisive, wasn't Ji Hwan
Slowly, Aura took hold of the paper handed by Axel and read it. Daddy Charles' explanation and Axel's words were indeed true. This statement did not harm her at all. At that moment, relief embraced Aura's heart. It convinced her that daddy Charles did genuinely give his blessing!"If you're sure there's no problem with this statement, sign it right away!" Daddy Charles urged impatiently."Is this statement really necessary, Dad?""Of course! Why do you think Daddy made this statement?" Axel shook his head, unable to answer. How would he know? It's daddy Charles who made it, why ask him? Right?"Because Daddy wants to assure Aura that Daddy is serious. Daddy wants Aura not to be haunted by worries. With this statement, Aura can directly demand from Daddy if someday Daddy does something harmful!" Daddy Charles emphasized.Leaving Aura stunned, not expecting that to be daddy Charles' reason.Aura looked emotional, touched by daddy Charles' response.At
Axel, who was sitting next to Aura, closed the gap again. Aura was about to move away, but Axel quickly blocked her, making her scream in surprise because her plan was easily discovered by Axel! ‘Oh my God! Why is this man so sensitive?!’ Aura complained inwardly."Why? Busy cursing me in your heart?" Axel guessed."That's right!" Aura admitted, not wanting to deny it. Axel was too smart to be fooled, so it was better to be honest! Besides, Aura was sure Axel wouldn't be mad at her. And her guess was right because Axel just chuckled happily!"No problem, curse me as much as you want. I'm all yours!" Axel teased.Aura sneered at Axel's flirtation. This man was truly shameless. Why was he so happy teasing her? As if he had nothing else to do! Oh, right, Aura forgot! Axel indeed had nothing else to do, right? No wonder he could follow her all the way to Berlin!"Don't keep staring at me! If you have nothing to say, you better go home! I want to rest!" Aura dism
Axel carried Aura's body and passionately kissed her lips. Aura wanted to avoid it, but Axel didn't give her any room! Aura was like a trapped rabbit! Unable to escape!Even though that man was carrying her while walking! But how could his concentration not be divided? And how could Axel's body be so strong and sturdy? Wasn't Aura pregnant, meaning she had a double burden? But Axel didn't seem to have any difficulty carrying her at all! My goodness!The longer Axel's kiss, the more intense it made Aura forget unconsciously. Aura briefly forgot her intention. Aura wanted to resist temptation, but it was difficult! Axel's kisses were so professional that any woman would lose herself, including Aura!Moreover, the pregnancy hormones made Aura's desire even more intense! As an adult woman, it's reasonable for Aura's passion to be provoked, right? Isn't it a sign of abnormality if she isn't provoked? And besides, Aura has missed Axel for so long. Longing for his touch. Longin
