Vale shakes. Then take a deep breath before giving an answer.
"No" he said briefly.
Riu did not answer. Prefer to shut up and wait for Vale to speak again.
"I also have a reason to rush into marriage. In fact, do not think long when you know you are looking for a future wife. I'm talking to Papa straight away" continued Vale.
"Reason? What's?" ask Riu.
"My love betrays. We've been dating for four years, but she's easily cheated just because I didn't want to serve her passion. I was hurt and disappointed, so I chose marriage. Just so he knows that I can find a replacement, too." Vale was finally honest. He thought, Riu also has a purpose, so he also doesn't have to pretend anymore.
Riu laughing. For the first time Vale saw that. After previously just putting on a cold look.
"What's so funny?"
"I don't think, a smart woman with a master's degree like you, turns out her mind is shallow as well." Riu folded her hands on her chest. "You think by marrying all the problems will be solved? If your boyfriend has betrayed you, your marriage will have no effect on him. Your own future is at stake. Do you think that's good enough?" continued.
"Foolish with that. The important thing is that I can show off my marriage to her. I can prove that I'm okay without him. In fact, it's better."
"Isn't that the same as lying to yourself?" Riu raised both eyebrows. In this instant, she began to feel that Vale was quite an attractive woman.
"No." Vale shakes. "You're the young master of the Brox family, handsome and rich. There is no loss in being your wife, too" she continued, not to lose.
"But I'm disabled."
"No problem." Vale thought, it's pretty good because that way he doesn't have to do intimate things.
Riu smiled faintly. He leaned closer to Vale.
"All right, I understand. I will not disturb your purpose. But, one thing you must hold onto, never expose my face to your lover, let alone to the public. Wait I can uncover Brother's crimes, then you're free to do that."
Vale thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement. Even if it does not expose the face, but the important thing is to show off the ring and the wedding book.
"Then I also have one request" Vale said.
"Say!"
"You can't mess with me without my permission. We are husband and wife, but now we all know what the purpose of marriage is. So, I guess we're pretty good at getting along on the usual stuff. The rest ... don't first."
Vale took advantage of the opportunity to fortify himself, as Riu was only a crippled foot. The other body is safe. He could feel it right here, kiss it right there kiss it here. No. gabe. Vale doesn't want that to happen, unless there's love between them.
Ah, love, does it still deserve to be glorified? I don't know.
In front of her, Riu hid a wide smile. Very interesting, he thought at the time.
"Actually, whatever the purpose of marriage such things need not be limited. Because frankly, both sides need that too. But .. With our situation like this, I passed my request. It's just that, there are conditions" said Riu, making Vale frown.
"What conditions?"
Vale gulped roughly. His throat felt dry when he heard that sentence. Not only a firm voice, but also a deadly gaze. Inevitably, Vale's mind drifted far away. Imagine what scene might happen, if later Riu managed to recover.
"Ah, no, no. He's permanently paralyzed, where he might be healed, "inner Vale.
"You mind?" riu asked, breaking Vale's mind.
"No. I .. agree."
Along with Vale's somewhat nervous reply, Riu smiled triumphantly. In his heart he promised, until whenever he would not let go of Vale. The woman had come to him, with a million charms that had managed to steal his attention. So, no matter what the circumstances may be, Vale should still be hers.
Unfortunately, Vale could not read what was on Riu's mind.
__________
Two days after getting married, Vale began preparing for his career. Armed with a high education, he included several names of companies that were his targets. All of those listed are large companies that are almost comparable to Brox family-owned companies.
While waiting for news of the application he submitted later, Vale will help the father's job, namely managing a small company that is in the auspices of the Brox Group.
In these two days, not much had happened between Vale and Riu. They ate together, talked together, and slept in the same room, but in different beds. In fact, Riu also helps recommend companies that would be suitable for Vale.
For the sake of smooth revenge plan on the brother, Riu did put Vale in another company, which of course there is still a cooperative relationship with Brox.
Tonight, after eating together, Vale pushed Riu's wheelchair towards her study. There was a little work to be done then and there.
"You go to sleep first, there's no need to wait for me!" riu said while staring at Vale for a moment.
"It's okay, I'm used to sleeping at night." Vale smiled sweetly. Not for Riu, but for images that have been displayed on the phone screen.
A second ago, he managed to take a pretty interesting picture, namely his hand and Riu's hand that were close together on the table.
"Once or twice you can be silent, but if many times, I'm sure you won't stand it. Four years is not a short time, it will not be easy to erase the memories even if you already have a substitute," Vale's mind while uploading the image into his story, which is devoted to a Kelvin.
He had previously posted a wedding book. Riu's name was accidentally covered with her finger, while showing off a beautiful circular wedding ring on her ring finger. Then, a photo of Riu sleeping. Vale wakes up in the morning just to take the picture. A body wrapped in a thick blanket, and Vale's hands seemed to pull the blanket away. A nice morning view, decorated his story page yesterday.
'In company of overtime husbands', Vale wrote in the post, complete with love stickers.
"You must have seen this, Kelvin, and I'm sure you don't like it," Vale's inner self-confident. Very patiently she waited until Kelvin's contact appeared in the view count.
Meanwhile, in the middle of the hustle and bustle of London, Kelvin gripped his phone tightly. Vale's upload since yesterday, really messed up his heart. Undeniably, Kelvin felt jealous.
So far, the love for that woman is still there. However, circumstances are less supportive. In addition to the Vale principle that he thinks is conservative, Kelvin is also often urged to find a partner who is financially profitable. His parents were not willing if Kelvin married a woman who was materially under him.
"Kelvin! Why just shut up? Don't tell me you're still thinking about your girlfriend!" snapped Annisa Brox—mom Kelvin—blondethe firstborn in the Brox family.
