My Last Wedding Chance
Chapter 22 The New Secret
Liam walked out of the room, he opened the door and I saw him talking to one of the maids.
Before long Liam re-entered with something, like a small bright red bag and a bowl of ice cubes.
"You can use this, I don't understand how to wear it, but according to the waiter, it can be used to cover" said Liam, who placed the objects on the table.
He approached me slowly, his face looking regretful. Liam was so careful talking to me at the moment.
I still stood not looking at him at all, but I could hear all his words clearly.
"You can be here first, I'm down to meet Anton."
Liam didn't stop looking at me that even I threw away my face and didn't want to see.
"I'm sorry...." Liam continued, he immediately opened the door and walked out of his room.
Liam's attitude changed from before, I know he's very sorry for what he did.
I was too weak to be aware of Liam's actions.
My eyes began to be fixed on the things Liam had brought earlier, a small red bag.
I opened it turns out that it contains several cosmetic tools, there is powder, lipstick and foundation. This must have belonged to the female servant who spoke to Liam earlier.
Maybe that means, it could help cover up the red pattern on my neck.
I took a deep breath, my eyes still looked sad. I tried to force myself to go around decorating myself using those cosmetic tools and take a little ice cube in a bowl to compress my puffy eyes.

Liam's Working Room
The two men were in the room, sitting together.
Liam looks calm, he does not show awkward behavior in front of Anton after what he did to Harumi.
"Sorry for waiting for me" Liam replied casually
"It's okay Liam, I've already completed some of his work assignments. I can't believe that the big project discussed earlier has been successfully approved, this makes a lot of profits. Some Vendors began to finish quickly, the solution from you in accordance with the results desired by all parties. You are amazing "
Anton's face looked bright, he was happy because many of his work was successful and made a profit for the company.
Liam looked cynically at Anton, as if he still harbored anger with him. Highlighting his eyes beyond doubt, Liam's ambition to compete with Anton was still immense. His desire to seize Harumi is increasingly unstoppable, he does not care about the risk later.
"For a long time he went to the restroom" said Anton slowly, he looked confused, because Harumi did not return to their room.
"It looks like your wife is driving around looking at the neighborhood" Liam replied with a haughty smile towards Anton
Shortly after, Harumi entered the room. He tried to cover up the incident, his footsteps surprised Liam who was sitting on his back.
Harumi's expression was flat and forced herself to smile at Anton.
"we go home now" I said, staring at Anton who was still sitting and I who was standing before him.
"Where are you going ?" asked Anton who was confused by my presence, my husband's own expression seemed to suspect me.
Before I answered my husband's question, Liam cut off our conversation.
He knew I still looked angry at him.
"He and the waiter saw the Flower Garden he was going to work on" cut Liam who noticed me and tried to improve things.
Liam glanced at Harumi's neck, as the red marks on her neck were gone. He smiled faintly, he was sure Harumi was using the cosmetics he gave her to disguise.
I didn't listen to everything Liam said. All I want is to get out of this place.
"Sorry Liam, I'm very grateful for today. May your journey home be smooth" Anton extended his hand.
"Alright, I'm waiting for your progress in the future" Liam welcomed Anton's hand. Liam stole a glance glancing at me. I don't want to see him I'm just throwing my face away.
Anton glanced at me, his eyes as if to code me to be more friendly and reply to Liam.
"Thank you" I replied sarcastically, then quickly walked towards the door.
Outside the room, there was Will's secretary smiling and delivering us.

Traveling In The Car
I look moody and silent since coming home from Liam Mansion, Anton is focusing on driving a car. Every now and then he's mirroring me who's just daydreaming all the way.
"why did you shut up ?" anton asked me to break my daydream.
"just think of Shop and Beatrix" I replied quietly.
"I'm happy that Liam has entrusted me with important work, if some of the Billion Projects even have 2 large projects worth Trillions later I have successfully executed, Liam will give 4% of the company's shares to me. It's amazing !"
Anton seemed enthusiastic about telling his achievements during his current work. It seems like he doesn't care about my condition.
I can only listen to all the happiness my husband is feeling right now. Seeing her as enthusiastic as that, I did not want to comment anything to destroy her dream.
Anton was very pursuing his career, if he managed to get the shares. That will make the degree even better in the eyes of high-class entrepreneurs.
"Take me to the Shop "my door
Anton's right hand immediately clasped my hand tightly. He looked at me with a smile. While driving with one hand, he did not take off his hand.
I have never seen my husband smile like this. My heart itself immediately melted. Seeing him so happy. Her warm touch made me lulled and calm.
"thank you for accompanying me, Rumi. Be patient for me"
"i beg you not to say that." I couldn't hear my husband say that, I finally broke the atmosphere of the day. Tears came back from my eyes, this time tears full of happiness and haru that I missed so much.
I cried, I don't care anymore. The tears that were not stopping to flow made me cry even more. I cried happily because I had been waiting for him to say those sweet words. All I ever wanted was Anton, my husband, a husband who loved me with all my flaws.
Anton stopped the car from pulling over. He pulled me and hugged me tightly.
He rubbed my head, calming me down.
"Sorry baby, don't cry anymore"
Anton has been changing since yesterday, he's back to what he was, since I first knew him. The Anton I used to know was gentle and took great care of me.
I returned a warm hug from my husband. He is not a perfect man, he lacks a lot. So can I not give perfection to him.
God will answer my prayers at the most beautiful time. I don't need Anton as President Director, or a wealthy businessman. I just want Anton, the guy I knew first. The man who poured his heart out for me. Loving me completely.
"I love you" I whispered
