Forced Mate
Chapters. 25. The Unexpected Guest.

"Beautiful, very beautiful!"

Unknowingly Arion's mouth moved on its own, until it let out words that succeeded in making Zeva's body stiff.

For a while they were silent with eyes, until suddenly someone knocked on the door making them both turn their faces to the side.

Zeva's heart was beating so fast that it made her face red, she really didn't know what was going on with her heart lately.

Meanwhile, Arion who could already calm down rushed to open the door. A servant was bowing his head before him.

"I'm sorry if it bothers you, sir. I was asked by the Madam to call you and the young Madam."

Arion nodded his head and went back into the room. "Are you ready?"

"L-yes, I'm ready" replied Zeva. The atmosphere was very awkward for him.

Arion then approached Zeva and pulled the woman's hand to circle her arm, leaving Zeva dumbfounded. "We have to look very romantic and happy."

Zeva immediately regained her senses when she heard Arion's voice. "Y-yes, we should look like that in front of a lot of people." He smiled clumsily as he gripped the man's arm.

Arion smiled faintly at Zeva's reddened face, he then brought the woman to join everyone in the pool area.

All eyes immediately turned to look towards Arion and Zeva who were walking into the party, they were fascinated by the good looks and beauty of the couple.

Tonight it doesn't seem like Audy's mom and Adrian's dad are party stars, as their sons and daughters-in-law look much more festive than they are.

"Well, they really are a very compatible couple!" chirps mama Audy. Let alone others, he himself greatly admired the compatibility of his son and daughter-in-law.

Arion and Zeva threw smiles at everyone who greeted them, not a few who immediately praised the perfection they had.

"Good night Ma, Pa," Zeva said as she stood beside her father-in-law.

"Night too, dear. You look so pretty tonight, mama's feeling rivalled."

Zeva Langaung chuckled softly with a red face holding in shame. "Mama can do it. It's all because of Arion, he's the one who's getting my dress ready."

"really?" Mama Audy and Papa Ben looked at Arion in disbelief, how could the man possibly prepare someone else's clothes, while his own clothes were never prepared.

"I'm just asking the boutique employees, they're the ones who gave me this dress."

Mama Audy and papa Ben immediately ber-oh ria, they had guessed that Arion could not choose the dress itself.

Zeva who had been smiling widely immediately frowned when she heard Arion's words, she thought that the man himself had prepared a dress for her. "Currently, I felt so moved earlier." He snorted sebal.

Arion glanced at Zeva with a faint smile, he was happy to see the look on the woman's face that had turned irritated by her words. "I'd love to pluck that round cheek." He clasped his hand which was about to pinch Zeva's cheek.

"Zeva!"

Zeva who was still busy throwing her face immediately turned her eyes when she heard someone's call, she immediately smiled brightly seeing her family in that place.

"I'm good, Ma. Sorry for never calling, I'm really busy right now."

Mama Zara then broke their arms. "Ah yes, said papa now you work in your husband's company."

Zeva nodded. "That's why I'm always busy!" He emphasized each of his words while looking towards Arion.

"It's good that it's like that, honey. That means your job is good, so your husband does a lot of work. Right, Arion?" Mama Zara looked towards Arion for approval.

Arion nodded. "True, the work is very good and reliable."

Blushes. Zeva's face turned red again because of Arion's praise, for some reason lately he's been easy baper. "Curtain, basic. He must have said that because he was pretending!"

After greeting each other and exchanging news, the party finally began. Papa Adrian gave a word of welcome to all the guests present on this day, ranging from family to all his business partners.

Then they stand behind a cake that looks very luxurious and beautiful for the core event, which is blowing candles and cutting cakes as a symbol of their anniversary.

Zeva who was busy observing the guests instantly froze when she saw a man sitting while staring at her. Deg. "Ga-Gavin?" The phone that had been in his hand just fell.

It turns out that since Gavin was in that place, he came as a representative of his uncle and aunt who are currently abroad.

Arion who heard the sound of a falling object immediately looked down, his hand outstretched to pick up Zeva's phone which was right next to his feet.

"Zeva, this is your phone, man,"

"Y-yes, what's up?" Zeva was shocked when she heard Arion's voice, and her reaction certainly made the man look at her in confusion.

"What's wrong? Are you all right?"

Glug. Zeva gulped down her saliva violently upon hearing Arion's question. "I-I'm fine. I'm just going to the toilet, put my phone on." He immediately left the place without waiting for an answer from Arion.

As she was about to enter the toilet, suddenly a hand pulled Zeva into the male toilet. "Hey, what are you-" she couldn't continue her words when she saw the male figure that was in front of her at the moment.

"Gavin's? You-"

"Darling, I miss you!" Gavin immediately hugged Zeva's body tightly making the woman sculpt. "I almost died because I couldn't see you, baby."

Zeva was silent when she heard Gavin's words, her hands were heavy enough to return the man's embrace.
