Replacement Bride
The snake!

Zoya!? call someone who is running towards him.

A man of her age, sheds a smile for Zoya, but Zoya just silently stares in wonder, who is she? he said in his heart.

''Arhan,'' replied the young man who realized that Zoya did not know him, again.

''Arhan? oh gosh... yeah! I'm sorry, I forgot about you,''

''Again!'' cetus Arhan and Zoya laughed at him.

They also walked into the campus area by continuing to talk and unexpectedly, Alex who just passed saw it all from the rearview mirror that was on top of his head so that made him instantly stop the speed of his car.

Staring with his eagle eyes, his handbooks clenched the steering wheel tightly leaving hardened veins around his hands and arms. ''Shit! who was that boy, just as he laughed along with my wife, Alex grumbled in the car there.

An irritated Alex intends to rewind his car and will immediately pull Zoya away from the young man she calls the boy.

But his intentions he unraveled because he saw Zoya and that person who had entered the campus arena, and he knew very well that he was determined to do his intention must be Zoya who would be embarrassed.

''It's okay, it's only the first and last time, '' he continued with his foot stepping on the accelerator.

Alex did not go straight to the office because he was still wearing sleepwear, especially he also had no time to shower because he forced to deliver Zoya.

Arriving at the house he bought in the name of Zoya, Alex circulated his gaze looking for the existence of Chintya who was no longer there. ''Oh may have gone, '' he murmured.

.

In a house, or more properly called a mansion, Mark sat anxiously waiting for someone who was clearly the owner of the house.

Repeatedly Mark raised his quarrelling arm a branded watch in silver, his eyes constantly staring at the steps and the elevator alternately.

''Mark?!'' call the owner of the house and quickly Mark got up from his seat, greeting him with great respect.

''Uncle,'' yes the one Mark is meeting right now is Louis, I don't know why Mark is meeting Louis this early.

''Sit down, no need to hesitate.'' Said Louis who preceded to sit on his single sofa because he knew that Mark would not sit if he had not sat down.

''What's up? is there a problem in the company ?'' asked Louis with his characteristic voice that is hoarse.

''Not Uncle, but before I wanted to apologize if I had disturbed Uncle this early, Louis just smiled nodding with his hands to reach for the coffee glass that had been provided by his personal servant.

''Did uncle not fly?''

''My flight schedule was on pending for 4 days. What is it Mark, say ..'' urged Louis because he also knows very well, Mark who will not meet him if there is nothing serious.

''Emmm, Chintya has returned, '' Mark replied quietly, Louis was surprised and a second later Louis threw his breath away.

''For what he came back for again, what I gave was lacking, Louis muttered inadvertently sounding to Mark's ears.

Louis put his finger to his lips hinting that Mark shouldn't speak loudly about it.

''Throughout the story, we better have breakfast together, let me tell you to the point.'' Said Louis who invited Mark to eat with him.

Eating quietly, Mark sat anxiously impatiently listening to an explanation from Louis' Uncle from his best friend. Louis glanced at him, smiled faintly and then finished his meal.

''Don't you believe me, Mark ?'' louis and Mark quickly shook their heads.

''Uncle, I've given all my life to you, bet my life is ready! because you're the one who saved my family's life. I believe in you guys, but I'm pretty disappointed to have to sacrifice a girl who doesn't know anything.

He lowered his head deeply, indicating that he would not be able to participate in the problems between them if later there would be injured even more so a girl.

''Did he say anything to Alex ?'' Mark also nodded.

''It's like he should be wary of,''

''I mean Uncle ?''

A few months ago, exactly two days before Alex and Chintya's wedding was held.

Louis is looking after Alex like his own son even he chose to be single for the rest of his life just because he wanted to focus on taking care of Alex, who incidentally is his nephew, who in fact, the son of his own older brother who died in an accident with Alex's mother.

Louis kept an eye on Alex, how he got along and who he was in a relationship with, yes the 58-year-old is an uncle who is considered very possessive of his own nephew, he even hired someone to find out who Alex's lover would marry his niece.

And one fact he knew, that Chintya was with Alex just because of what Alex had, in other words Chintya did not really love Alex but loved the property that Alex had. ''Stupid boy !'' louis's grumble is upset that Alex is blind to sweet wooing from a Chintya.

''Now what do you want?!'' louis asked the woman who was sitting with her hands tied.

''I just want some of Alex's treasure to be mine, he replied with a sly smirk.

''Well, I guess, it's just the stuff in your little brain. All right, I'll give you what you want, but you need to get away from Alex right on your wedding day. Do you agree?''

Chintya laughed out loud at his hearing, and the furious Louis unintentionally slapped at Chintya's smooth cheek.

''Chewier...If I marry Alex, I can even get more than what I want, isn't that so uncle ?'' and now it was Louis' turn to laugh out loud at Chintya's words.

''Stupid! u know? Alex only has a 25% stake in the violet brand, and even if he manages to get it. And you wish you had Alex's entire fortune. You are too much!''

''You mean?''

''Ya! Alex has to have a child first if he wants to own some of his property, but you know what? Alex has a problem in his body that would be difficult to have a child. Are you willing to wait your whole life for that which is obviously futile .'' Chintya is surprised not to play, and is sure he signed a letter of agreement that he will leave Alex and bring the money given by Louis.

Is everything Louis said to Chintya true? oh sure not! yes it was just a wreath from Louis, he pretended to be cunning just to save Alex from a mute snake from a cunning woman like Chintya.
