Albern and Lily
Will You Marry Me?

Ginna's condition in the following days seemed to improve, but of course it was only seen from the surface because the function of the old woman's organs had experienced so many problems. The word healed was an almost impossible thing for the great madam. The drugs that continue to be given to him are only to reduce his pain, no effect on healing at all. To survive alone Ginna must continue to use life support tools. One of them is an oxygen tube.

However, Ginna can be invited to communicate and can occasionally go to his home garden using a wheelchair. Arguably, Ginna's state has been much better since Lily's arrival, though illness continues to eat away at her body. Albern has also said that she is getting married soon. It certainly makes the spirit of Ginna's life becomes much greater than before. Ginna is determined to become stronger, at least until her granddaughter marries.

Regarding the response of Brylee's family upon Lily's return after disappearing for seven years, they did not give such a warm welcome to the girl, especially Zivanna. Perhaps Zivanna was angry that Lily cut off contact with her and completely ignored her for seven years. As a result, he kept being cold every time he met Lily. And Aaron too. They did not reject Lily, but also did not welcome Lily's presence. Only Zaya was still acting the same and treating Lily gently.

Lily herself doesn't have a problem with any of that. He thought, naturally Zivanna and Aaron felt annoyed at him because he had made Albern have to suffer for quite a long time. It also slightly affected the condition of Ginna to be as severe as now. For Lily, they were all not against her relationship with Albern, that was more than enough. Lily believes, over time Zivanna and Aaron's attitude will melt and like it used to. Just waiting for time, everything will be as it was.

That day, Lily and Albern just surveyed several locations that a factory would build to produce their medicines later. The cooperation contract had been signed, so their big project had already begun. Unmitigated, Brylee Group and BrushHealt Company will work together for the next five years. Lily will stay in Indonesia for the duration of the project and leave the New York affair to Robbin, her cousin who is also her representative at the company.

After almost a day of visiting the location one by one, they finally arrived at the last location that must be surveyed. And the location this time has a pretty beautiful view because the surrounding is still so beautiful. Lily could even hear the splashing sound of water coming from the river not far from there. The atmosphere is also so cool because it is still surrounded by many large trees.

"What's right here?" Albern's voice surprised Lily a little.

Lily turned her head and found that Albern had been standing nearby while carrying two bottles of cold drink.

"Sister Al was shocked." Lily grumbled a little.

Albern smiled and handed Lily a bottle of cold drink, the other one he opened and she gave herself a sip. Lily did the same thing because she happened to be thirsty.

"It looks like this location is suitable to be used as a factory" said Albern.

Lily agreed.

"I was just about to say" he said as he sipped the cold drink Albern had given him earlier.

"If the location of the plant is already determined, construction can begin immediately." Albern muttered again.

Lily nodded again.

"Thankfully everything went smoothly and there were no significant obstacles. At first I was worried because our first project had a lot of problems" Lily said.

"That's because you haven't found the right partner as of now" Albern said at his leisure.

I don't want Lily laughing at that.

"For a long time I was amazed by Kak Al's fame."

"I'm not a narcissist. That's the truth." Albern denies.

"Yes, okay. Now I have found an amazing partner. And I hope, my partner now can not only be invited to cooperate in business, but also in other matters." Lily finally agreed with a bit of fun.

"Alright, it seems like this conversation is no longer professional," Lily said.

"It's precisely because it's very professional, I say it like that" said Albern.

"So much Al only," said Lily resigned.

Albern just chuckled in response.

Albern and Lily's conversation stopped immediately when a guide who was taking Albern and Lily around came closer to the two. Shortly after, the personal assistants of the two also came closer and informed them that the time of their visit was over. The two of them finally returned to the car with satisfactory survey results.

"Find an excuse so you don't have to go home in your car" Albern half-whispered in Lily's ear.

Lily looked to be frowning.

"Then go straight into my car," added Albern again while showing his smile.

Of course Albern's smile made Lily helpless. He did as Albern told him. The girl was looking for a reason for her driver and personal information to return first using the car that brought her earlier, while she went straight into Albern's car. Apparently the man had also gotten rid of the driver and his assistant until he and Lily were alone in the car.

"Where are we going?" lily asked curiously when Albern had driven his car.

"Consecret. If I tell you, it's no surprise that his name is" elak Albern.

Lily tried to be patient and never asked again. After taking a while, they arrived at the edge of a lake that had no less beautiful scenery. Albern stopped his car there and took Lily down. It was so late in the afternoon that the sun had begun to fall on the western horizon, leaving a golden bias on the surface of the lake water.

"It's so beautiful" Lily muttered in amazement.

Albern smiled, then pulled something out from behind his suit. The man suddenly knelt down before Lily on one leg, making Lily slightly widen her eyes in surprise.

"Lily, I'm sorry I don't know if this is what you want or not. I also don't know how to properly express my feelings for you. I just want to say that I really wish you were the only woman standing next to me under any circumstances. Be my partner in everything. Okay?"

Lily seemed to smother her mouth with a haru expression that could not be described with words, especially when Albern opened the ring box he had taken out earlier and thrust the object at her.

"I love you so much that I don't know how much it feels. So, Lily ..."

Albern sighed for a moment.

"Will you marry me?"
