Elli's parents soon prepare to attend the sudden wedding of her biological son, Elli. Even Regan and Erga were also immediately contacted by their parents to go home. As well as his parents who were in shock, both of Elli's siblings were also no less shocked. Everything was really sudden, even they were still wondering why Elli could get married at this young age without asking for the blessing of her parents first.
Reno did not tell Elli what she was getting married because she just asked to get ready because the time was up and the day was too late. After finishing preparing, the four of them immediately entered the car and followed the Reno car that had gone first. It took about 30 minutes to reach the location where the event took place, namely in a simple mosque in the village. They all finally got out of the car, it was seen that in the mosque there were already many people starting from ustadz, Mr. Ahmad, a couple of brides, and some residents who participated in the witness.
Both Eli's parents and older brother followed Reno who started walking into the mosque area. Elli, who saw that her parents had come at once, glared at her eyes in disbelief. Reno or Edward did not tell her that they would invite her parents. Even when the father had positioned himself in front of Edward even though Elli still looked very shocked by his incredulous gaze.
"Because the guardians and witnesses are ready and I have matched his identity. Let's start the show" said the ustadz breaking the tension between them.
"Please let the groom shake the hand of the guardian of Elliana Febria, his own biological father, Mr. Reza Gurnawa Yusa" he ordered.
"Bismillahiramananirrahim. I married and I want you to marry Erdward Lion Ananda Serrant bin William Adiguna Serant with my son Elliana Febria with his bride in the form of money 1 million rupiah, cash.” said Papa Reza.
"I accept the marriage and the marriage of Elliana Febria bint Reza Gurnawa Yusa with her mascarina, cash" said Edward firmly with one breath.
"How's witness?" ask the ustadz by looking at the witnesses who include Reno and Pak Ahmad.
"SAH" said Reno and Pak Ahmad simultaneously.
Hearing the name of his groom is from the Serrant family made everyone who heard surprised, even Papa Reza was no less surprised when he woke up. Even the surrounding residents just take the moment with their cellphone cameras to take pictures. They were very lucky to have met one of the most mysterious members of the Serant family. But their happiness was instantly worn away when all the hp of the citizens were forcibly taken by Edward's bodyguards.
Edward's bodyguards swiftly removed all images and videos from their phones. Even the residents were also threatened not to divulge anything about the incident tonight, if it leaked then the entire family will be destroyed by Edward himself.
Next they read some series of do'a and talked about some of the conditions that must be taken care of by the bride and groom for the registration of the wedding in the country tomorrow.
***
After the wedding at the mosque was over, the, everyone who was there immediately resigned to leave or rather was expelled by some of Edward's men because there were some privacy matters that they had to discuss.
"You're the CEO of the Serrant Group Company? Or are you just part of the mysterious Serant family?" asked Papa Reza with a curious look towards Edward who had just stared flatly at him.
Elli was silent as she held Edward's hand tightly. Reuniting with his parents at a moment like this makes his feelings turbulent. There is a sense of sadness, disappointment, and anger together especially the two parents have never looked for it since being kicked out of the house at that time. Want it to feel he is crying right now, but he must try hard so as not to be stamped weak.
"Elli.." called the mother gently but Elli just stared at her mother flat.
The hearts of mama and papa Elli were immediately torn to shreds by the flat gaze and indifference of her son towards them. Usually Elli was always enthusiastic if she met them, but now her nature became indifferent.
"Thank you for coming" Elli said in a flat tone as her mother looked down at her.
"Mr Edward, I as Elli's father only ask you to look after my son. Protect him from those who want to hurt him, especially if one day your marriage spreads out of course Mr. Edward's enemies can also target Elli to destroy you. Love and love him because all this time I as a parent have not been able to give it all to him. I believe in you" said Papa Reza, breaking the urge between them while gently patting Edward on the shoulder.
"Surely, anything I would do to take care of my wife. Even if my own life is at stake" said Edward firmly.
Elli who heard that of course felt overwhelmed by the answer given by Edward, whether the speech was a lie or not that certainly Elli did not care. The important thing is that Elli is happy just by hearing the words spoken by Edward.
"Then we decided to go home because it was night. Elli take good care of you, Mr. Edward will take very good care of you. Forgive your mom, dad, and your two sisters who haven't been able to give you enough affection. One day you will understand that what we are doing right now is for your own good" said Papa Reza, glazed over with eyes staring deeply into Elli's eyes.
Elli just stared at her papa flat that revealed everything, she thought that this was all for her good why her parents and two brothers no one would want to tell her the real reason for doing this.
Both of Elli's parents and her two brothers left after saying goodbye with their own eyes looking at Elli. But Elli remained unmoved and remained in her stance with what she said from the beginning if they met would be like strangers or strangers.
