Betrayal On The Night of the Bride
Part 59 ~ Will you marry me?
With a lethargic face Alexa walked towards the dining table after the hour hand showed the number 8. It's true that he asked to be betrothed by his mother, but not so soon. Even the divorce papers he just held.
Alexa sat in front of Ricard who was mulling a smile, she squinted her eyes as a warning.
"Why is his face lethargic like that, son?" ask Kania.
"Just sleep deprived Mommy," answered Alexa clearly lying because she did not want Kania to grieve.
"Where are the special guests of Mother? He said at eight he would ...."
"Good night" said someone who had just arrived.
"Finally come too" caletuk Kania with a smile.
Alexa turned her head and found Sean standing right behind her. So the special guest that the mother meant was Sean? I never thought about it by Alexa.
He continued to research Sean's clothes which were much neater than before.
"Let's have dinner together! Mommy is happy to gather like this!" kania invited everyone to eat.
Dinner dishes are plentiful according to Alexa if it only welcomes Sean's arrival. For the first time after Sean had worked with his family, the man had dinner together at home.
"You got overtime?" chirps Alexa.
"No," Ricard said.
"Then why are Ricard and Sean's clothes so neat?"
"Just want to," said Sean smiling knots.
Never mind, it seems Alexa is getting upset because her family has dared to play secrets at home.
Alexa glanced to the side as Sean picked up the tomatoes on his plate.
"You don't like Lexa tomatoes" Sean said, moving them to his plate and changing the meat to Alexa's plate.
"Ekhem, remember this is the dining table!" Ricard's Warning.

After dinner together, Ricard, Kania and Sean gathered in the living room, seemingly talking about something serious. Alexa joined in because of the curiosity in his heart.
"So you're really ready for Sean? I don't want anyone to disappoint my family again" Ricard said on behalf of Kania.
"I'm sure Sir, then allow me to ask for it," Sean replied with a serious face. Ricard and Kania immediately nodded their heads.
"What are you really talking about? I really don't ... Sean what are you doing?" alexa is shocked when Sean suddenly kneels before her.
"Wake up!" alexa orders but answered by Sean. The man pulled out a ring in his suit pocket then thrust it at Alexa.
"Lexa, Will you marry me?"
"Huh?" Alexa's eyes are perfectly rounded. "You're not kidding, are you, Sean? I just got officially divorced and ...."
"Applying and being accepted doesn't directly have to marry Lexa, I know that. I'm proposing to you now so that I can prepare for everything that will take a long time. I hope your answer is yes," Sean replied with firmness and a little coercion. The man has got the blessing of mother and sister Alexa so he is very confident now.
"I've waited long enough to have you, it hurts to be with you married to another Lexa man. Since long ago until now my feelings have never changed even 1% only," continued Sean.
"Sorry I can't ...." Alexa immediately stood up from her seat, making the three people in the living room surprised instead of playing.
They think Alexa will accept it with pleasure because it has long known.
"Lexa, sister can ...."
"I'm sorry Sean, but I can't waste this opportunity. I can't just turn you down." Alexa put on a smile at the end of the sentence after berhasik meneprank family.
He reached out with Sean's hand, asking the man to put a ring on his ring finger that had been empty since one month ago.
"I will try to make you happy" said Sean, peeping the back of Alexa's hand without any shame. The man was very happy because Alexa was willing to accept him. The wait was long enough to produce a sweet result.
"Let's stand!" alexa's orders, make Sean stand up. He immediately hugged the burly body and was much taller then. "I trust you Sean, I hope you don't let me down" said Alexa.
"Not going to Lexa, I've been looking forward to this moment long enough."
