Aaron changed his position facing Keyra while looking down angrily biting his lip. "I'm not asking you to reply to my love, Keyra, I just want you to know how I feel."
Keyra stared at Aaron who was lonely and only she was expected to melt the loneliness. there was a sense of pity for the man, there was also a sense of wanting to try to accept his love because she was restless after losing contact with him.
"I know, I'm not your ideal man, because you are a family gem...You are the only daughter in your family, of course, you want to get a companion from a complete and equal family circle with your family. I pretty much know who I am," Aaron said with all his humility, or indeed he was being modest for a play.
"Aaron, Why do you say that? Neither my family nor I ever judge a person in terms of family status or material things. We prioritize honesty, sincerity, and kindness, so don't judge me that I will reject you because of your condition," said Keyra with a look of pity on Aaron, who was alone.
"I'm just trying to accept the possibility that this statement of mine will cause because I can't hold it in any longer," said Aaron, looking down and smiling faintly.
Keyra who has an aggressive attitude like Luna pulled Aaron in her arms and said, "I won't let you feel alone again."
"Is that true?" asked Aaron as he let go of Keyra's arms. He looked at the girl as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
Keyra just smiled and nodded.
"Does that mean... we...." Aaron wondered.
"We're a couple." Keyra also confirmed.
A smile spread across Aaron's lips, then pulled Keyra in his arms. the man hugged his new lover tightly while moving left and right.
"Aaron... I can't breathe!" Keyra exclaimed with a voice like running out of oxygen.
Aaron chuckled and immediately let go of his too-tight hug on Keyra. Whether it's a happy hug or because of a crush on Keyra who will become his tool for revenge, the man is very good at acting, almost like his mother. The fruit didn't fall far from the tree, as did Aaron and Sarah, who liked to play a lot.
"Sorry, Keyra...I'm too speechless," Aaron said with a shy smile.
"Are you happy?" Keyra asked, wrapping her arms around Aaron's neck.
"Of course, because my love is finally accepted," Aaron replied. "Do you love me?"
Instead of answering, Keyra asked back, "Do you think I accept without love?"
Aaron silently glanced to the right and left then looked at Keyra who smiled so sweetly while looking at him, he immediately brought his face closer to Keyra's face until their sharp noses fused.
"I think you love me too," Aaron whispered then bit his lower lip with his hand feeling Keyra's thin lips which were only a few centimeters away, almost touching him.
"Indeed I love you," Keyra replied with a soft voice looking into the dark eyes of the man in front of her.
Aaron blushed with flushed cheeks, he felt butterflies flying between himself and Keyra. For a moment the man forgot his revenge, he tilted his face and then kissed Keyra's lips gently with affection.
Keyra also returned Aaron's kiss reflexively by holding his jaw which had no beard at all. For a few moments, the soft kiss lasted until they heard an announcement from the ballroom to get together because it was time for Keenan and Jasmine to throw the bridal bouquet.
Aaron and Keyra walked into the room, then down the stairs to the ballroom. They are holding hands, smiling at each other, because they are intoxicated with love.
Keenan and Jasmine stood with their backs to the guests eager to catch the flowers they were about to throw. Keyra and Aaron, who had just arrived at the ballroom, immediately took a position among the guest who was dominated by office employees and the family of Ethan Luna.
Mc immediately gave the clue to Keenan and Jasmine to throw the bouquet back after the count of three, the potential catchers were ready with enthusiasm.
"One two three!"
Keenan and Jasmine immediately threw the bouquet back without knowing who caught it, they turned around and chuckled when they saw the flower being caught by Aaron.
"Wow, it looks like mom and dad will get a new son-in-law," Keenan teased while glancing at Keyra who immediately blushed because the one who caught the flower was her lover. It is said, who catches the bridal bouquet, will soon follow to become a bride.
All the guests clapped and glanced at Aaron who immediately gave the bouquet to Keyra. Ethan and Luna also laughed happily, because they didn't understand how clear Keyra's relationship with Aaron was.
Keenan and Jasmine immediately walked up the stairs to the room where they were staying, while the other guests decided to go home and some were still staying to just chat while enjoying the food provided by the caterer.
___
A middle-aged woman noticed the presence of Marta who was still around the car park located in front of the hotel. The woman was none other than Nia who accidentally saw Marta's whereabouts which she knew.
"Marta, where are you?" Nia and one of her bodyguards walked along the many cars parked at the hotel.
"Maybe she's gone, ma'am," said the man of about 30 years with a dashing build, wearing a black tuxedo without wearing a tie and having a thin beard growing on his firm jaw.
"Impossible, because I saw her still around here, near this car," Nia said insisting on the existence of Marta who was still around the parking lot.
A man who was on guard around the hotel approached Nia who looked confused.
"Sorry ma'am, what's wrong? Is there anything that disturbs your comfort here?" asked a handsome man with a dashing stature, wearing a silver tuxedo suit without wearing a tie. The man looked the same age as Keenan.
"It's okay, I just saw my old friend, but it looks like she's gone," answered Nia with eyes still looking for Marta's whereabouts.
Ethan and Luna who were going home and about to approach their car in the parking lot saw Nia, who was known to Ethan as a business partner.
"Mrs.Nia," said Ethan.
"Are you going home, sir?" Nia asked with a friendly smile.
"Yes," said Ethan with a smile and then glanced at the man who was with Nia. "Daniel, are you coming home or will you still be here?" he asked.
Luna just watched with her hand still embracing Ethan's arm. 'That woman looks like Jasmine. gosh, like a betel nut cut in half,' she thought with a bit of amazement.
"I'm just staying here, Sir. I happen to have booked a room," replied the man who turned out to be Daniel.
"That's all right then," said Ethan then glanced at Nia who glanced the other way as if looking for something. ."What are you looking for, Mrs?"
"Eh, no. I was just looking for my bodyguard, he said he was there for a while," answered Nia a little nervously pointing in any direction, coincidentally the bodyguard was going somewhere looking for Marta.
"Well then, we say go home first," said Ethan with a friendly smile followed by Luna.
"Yeah, be careful," said Nia.
Ethan and Luna immediately walked towards their car which was parked a few meters from where Nia was standing. they immediately got into the car and were immediately driven by the driver to go home.
Nia was silent disappointed because she couldn't find Marta. 'Where is she, even though I want to ask the condition of my daughter who I was forced to leave with 22 years ago. I'm ready to take care of her because I already have enough wealth to support her,' she thought angrily.
Daniel is still watching Nia secretly, he seems to be looking for the truth that had become Keenan's anxiety about Marta who doesn't look like Jasmine's biological mother.
