Because, I Love You
Episode 17's

In the afternoon.

Olivia immediately drives Andreas out of his apartment after they are satisfied with sex before Rendy comes back. He does not want if Rendy to find out about his affair.

After Olivia evicted Andreas, he immediately tidied up his messy room and then bathed and dressed as beautiful as possible to welcome the arrival of his beloved.

Shortly after Olivia finished dressing up, she heard the sound of her apartment bell ringing. He smiled and immediately ran to open the door.

"Have come?" Olivia smiled happily.

Rendy nodded and smiled looking at Olivia who looked fresh as well as fragrant. Her still wet hair unraveled and put on her sex lingerie in red, making Rendy unable to not immediately embrace and kiss her.

"Something I want to talk about." Rendy said after taking off her kiss.

They sit in the middle room. Rendy circulated her gaze like she felt something strange.

"What's wrong?" Olivia asked, looking around the room.

"Did anyone come here but me?" Rendy asked with a serious look at Olivia.

Olivia's a little nervous. 'Wawat! Is Rendy suspicious of me?'

However, Olivia was quickly able to restore her facial expression to its original state. Not in vain during this time he studied film majors and plunged into the world of entertainment to become a film player who is very good at acting.

Olivia smile. "Yes. My assistant came here." Olivia then gently rubbed Rendy's jaw and looked at her seriously. "Are you suspecting me?"

Rendy looked at Olivia and smiled and held Olivia's hand which rubbed her jaw and kissed her. "I believe in you."

"What do you want to talk about?" Olivia's question reminded Rendy.

"Ah.ltya. I'm sorry I couldn't stay tonight."

At once Olivia's face looked upset and disappointed. Rendy clasped his hand. "You were an explanation from me."

Olivia grunted in annoyance. "I was expecting it. You've always been like this, Rend."

He got up and went into his room leaving Rendy just as irritated.

Rendy followed him to persuade him. She would not feel calm if her lover sulked like this. "Honey, you've been explaining from me."

"You better just go. No need to explain and no need to come see me anymore." Said Olivia sitting on the sofa by her bed grabbing a bottle of wine and pouring it into her glass and drinking it.

Rendy let out a long sigh and sat down next to Olivia.

"You know for yourself how my parents are." Rendy reminds Olivia of her parents' attitude. "Even my father told a lot of people to keep an eye on me. If my dad finds out I'm still in touch with you, let alone staying at your apartment, maybe I can't see you anymore, Oliv."

Rendy had almost forgotten how her Papa would do anything to keep an eye on her. Even his father hired a reliable detective to always provide information about him if Beni did not remind him.

Rendy tells her parents that she and Olivia have broken up and have nothing to do. Maybe Nadine can trust him, but not Bagas. His father was not so easily lied to by him.

Olivia was silent as she clasped the glass that still contained wine in her hands. Of course he didn't want his relationship with Rendy to end.

Again he had to endure his frustration and be more patient again to keep his plan running smoothly.

Before Olivia spoke, Rendy had already said again. "Yes already. Don't be angry anymore. My time is not much. We'd better use our time to make out." Rendy grabbed the glass containing the wine from Olivia's hand and placed it on the table.

He misses his girlfriend so much, and soon he has to go to Surabaya for a few days to take care of his company branch there.

Not wanting to waste his time, Rendy immediately pulled the nape of Olivia and kissed her lips for a while then released her back. "Have you eaten?"

Olivia shakes. "Not yet."

"Then I'll order food for us."

Rendy pulled out her phone and called Beni to bring food here.

"I don't have an appetite." Olivia said that Rendy's finger movement stopped when she wanted to press the button to call Beni.

Rendy looked at him. "Why?"

"You should keep eating, because I don't want you to get sick when I'm away from you." Rendy said attentively.

Olivia smiled cynically. "You don't have to care about me."

Rendy sighed, trying to remain patient with this lover. "Don't start again."

"Why?" Olivia looked at Rendy. "I'm tired of this relationship, Rend." Olivia complained with her sad face feeling her relationship with Rendy all this time which was like this and there was no progress.

Rendy understood what Olivia said. He grabbed Olivia's hand and grabbed it. "You gave me time to convince my parents. You're still patient, right?"

"Until when do I have to be patient, Rend?"

Rendy looked silent thinking.

It's been almost four years they've been dating, but Rendy still hasn't got the blessing of her parents. Even Rendy had never invited him to come to his house to get to know his family better.

It's not that Rendy won't take Olivia to her house. Only, he recalled that when Rendy invited Olivia to come to the family dinner at the resort owned by her, the attitude of Bagas and Nadine was so cold as to show her dislike for Olivia.

However, in contrast to the attitude of Nayla, her sister and Farah, Omanya. They look so good and gladly accept Olivia.

Rendy just doesn't want Olivia to feel uncomfortable and hurt by her parents' attitude.

Looking at Rendy who was just silent, Olivia again spoke impatiently. "If you really love me, you're proving dong! Lamar me, marry me! No matter what your parents agree or not. You are no longer a child who is still being watched in your own life, Rend!"

Rendy frowned listening to Olivia's speech which she thought was very unreasonable.

Rendy loved and respected her parents. All this time, it was the master who had raised him affectionately without the least bit until he had grown up well like this. How could he possibly marry Olivia secretly?

"Why are you silent? Looks like, I've started to be unsure of how you feel about me, Rend. You don't really love me." Olivia smiled cynically and grabbed the glass containing the wine again and gulped it down.

"You mean, you want us to elope?" Rendy asked with a frown staring at Olivia's astonishment.

"If that's the only way for us, why not? My family has agreed with our relationship. Oma Farah and Nayla also like me."

Rendy shook her head. "You're crazy, Oliv. There's no way I would do something like that. I have great respect for my parents."

"But you love me too, don't you, Rend?" Olivia asked with teary eyes looking at Rendy.

Rendy took a long breath. "If I don't love you, why do I keep you, Olive?"

Rendy was completely clueless about Olivia's increasingly absurd way of thinking.

Olivia snorted coldly. "Well, whatever you do, I'm tired!"

Olivia poured the wine in her glass again to the brim and drank it with a feeling of annoyance.

Rendy held her hand. "No way, Oliv. I don't like you drinking too much. Not good for your health."

Rendy grabbed the glass containing the wine from Olive's hand and placed it back on the table.

Rendy cupped the pretty face of her lover and looked at him.

Suddenly Olivia's tears flowed, Rendy immediately wiped them. "I love you so much, Oliv. I am also serious about this relationship. Otherwise, why would I keep this relationship and keep lying to my parents?" Rendy said softly while looking fixedly at Olivia.

"I'm just afraid that you'll leave me Rend. It could be, your parents have secretly prepared a soul mate for you." Olivia looks so desperate.

"That's enough, Oliv! Let's not discuss this issue again. I love you and I just want to marry you. Hear it!" Rendy convinces Olivia and makes the woman cheer inwardly.

'Yes! I know you love me so much Rend. At any time, you will remain mine. With or without the blessing of your parents!'

Olivia did not think at all about how it would be if one day Rendy knew of her behavior behind her all this time. It's possible that the great love of Rendy will turn in an instant into such deep disappointment and heartache.

Or maybe, Rendy would hate him for a lifetime!

But Olivia didn't want to think about it just yet. What he was thinking about right now, how would Rendy be able to marry him immediately and make her the wealthy Madam Pradipta Kingdom.
