The atmosphere in the canteen was so tense. Vero folded his hands together on his chest, while Aunt Leana was busy weeping lamenting the fate of her nephew.
"So, it's all Marco's fault." "Marco told Max to kidnap Jessi. But, Max was wrong to bring people in because Jessi and Leana were wearing twins." "Marco didn't want Max to hurt Leana at all" Marco said honestly.
"But your sister has done a depraved deed. He should have rotted away in prison" Aunt Marie said with emotion.
"Max now may want to take responsibility for his actions. Isn't that a good solution?"
"Mom disagrees." protested Vero. She looked at Aunt Marie's very ordinary appearance. Leana is not from a family. What would a descendant of the Scotts family marry a mediocre man? Vero can be ashamed of his friends.
"I disagree too. Leana won't marry Max." Aunt Marie also balked at the Scotts' offer. Leana will suffer if she marries the person who has desecrated her.
Marco felt his head throb. If Vero and Aunt Marie kept shouting like this, Marco was sure that he would catch up with Max for hospitalization at Husada Hospital.
"Mom.. Mom promised Max she'd grant what Max asked." Marco tried to lobby Vero even though it sounded impossible. "Mom, also keep in mind, no woman can get close to Max. Do you want Max to be a weathered bachelor?" marco whispered to Vero. For a long time, Max always drove out women who were nearby. There are many beautiful girls who approach Max. But, they won't last long with Max. Max's longest courtship time is 1 month. It was they who forced Max to be his girlfriend.
"Don't be reckless, Mar." it seems Vero was slightly affected by Marco's remarks. Vero is also afraid that Max will not be able to have a partner until he is old.
"Mom has to think first" said Vero at last.
Marco's done with Vero. Now he's turned to Aunt Marie.
"Bi, let Max marry Leana." "It's all happened and it can't be repeated, right?" "What happens when Leana gets pregnant?" "It would be more cruel if Auntie let Leana take care of her own child."
Aunt Marie stopped crying. Marco's right. Indeed, all that possibility could happen. But, will Leana accept Max? That can't be happening.
"So, how? You agree with Max and Leana's marriage?" Marco looked at Vero and Aunt Marie in turn.
"OKAY. Just do it." Vero answered first.
Aunt Marie also gave a nod even though she looked a little doubtful.
Marco breathed a sigh of relief. Finally the burden for these few weeks was lifted as well. He does not need to feel guilty about both of them and Marco can refocus on pursuing Jessica, aka his ex.
"Then, Marco will take care of everything tomorrow morning. We'll do this in the hospital."

"Related, Mom. They look good too, right?"
"But Leana doesn't seem to be one of us" said Vero, a little worried.
Marco has indeed checked the information about Leana. She is an only child and both her parents have died since Leana was a child. Leana lives with her aunt and she opens a Korean restaurant in Jakarta. Although not from the upper class, Leana is very diligent in working. He is also independent. According to Leana's official confession, Leana is a good and pleasant boss.
Marco agrees that Max is married to Leana.
"Mom, isn't that good?" "If mom is looking for an equal, she will fight Mom because she feels she has the authority." Again Marco makes a seduction that can change Vero's mind.
"But,,,"
"Mom, don't keep changing. Max will be more determined if his wishes are not fulfilled." Marco cut. "Somehow, the Scotts' surname could be damaged by Max's behavior. Instead, if Max is responsible, then our family is safe."
"Then, what about yourself?" Vero addresses another issue because all Marco's words are true.
"How's what?"
"Daughter, Mar. Girlfriend." "Mom can't wait to have a grandchild."
"It's a try, Mom. Marco will continue to pursue Jessica to the ends of the world" Marco said confidently.
"Mom's son is stubborn." Vero shakes his own head looking at Marco and Max who are always struggling to fulfill his wish even though it looks ridiculous. Chasing ex? Are there no more beautiful and beautiful women in this world?
"Mom will stay in Indonesia after Max gets married." added Vero.
"But, Mom.." Now Marco seems to object to Vero's request. What happens if Vero stays at home? Marco's straight hair can be curly.
"There's no buts. If you disagree, Max can't get married."
"Mom, you're amazingly cunning."
"The same with you, right?" Vero laughed satisfiedly at Marco who was speechless.
