Second Bride Young Master
CHAPTER 51 | Just give up

......................

Asteria walks back and forth in the garden behind the mansions of Alessio and Lyra. In fact, he also refused to set foot back into this mansion. But today Alessio is so difficult to contact that he has to be forced to meet him here.

The other day, his mother and father went to see him at his mansion.

At that time, his mother and father visited the mansion while Asteria was busy organizing a charity event that would soon be held at the Facullo residence.

The Facullo and Mikhalov families have a good relationship. Facullo's heir is also a cousin of Asteria.

Isabella and Andrew Mikhailov came without speaking. All this time, if his father and mother would visit. Usually they will tell Asteria first.

Right now, they were sitting in the guest room.

Asteria hugged both her parents. Then say.

"Dad, mom. What the hell are you guys here for? once tumben? not that I don't like. Just ask questions". Ask Asteria heart. He did not want to offend his parents.

Andrew and Isabella looked at each other. Then Isabella cleared her throat.

"This son... Before I wanted to ask you how you were with Alessio. Are you guys okay?"

Asteria frowned. The same question every time his mother visits.

He's careless.

He then showed his best fake smile. "Of course we're fine"

His father looked at him in detail. Making Asteria hold an instinct to move is uncomfortable.

As long as he knows his father, he will not say if Andrew Mikhailov was a good parent —but on the other hand also not a bad parent anyway. Their relationship is arguably too formal to describe.

Asteria knew that her father wanted a male successor that he could make a successor to their family.

Therefore, from a small Asteria always taught as perfectly as possible. Starting from ethics classes and dance classes that he must go to. Piano classes, so that in every family event she could be exhibited as the "perfect" daughter of the Mikhailov family.

The match with Alessio was his father who arranged. He still remembered the words of Andrew who at that time studied it.

"Asteria Mikhailova's. This is what is prepared for you. Being the wife of an Alessio Romanov is a great pride for our family. I hope you're not doing anything like this".

Asteria, who from childhood, likes to please her father. She who was a little girl at the time, excitedly nodded her head.

And now, he regretted accepting the match. But one that she does not regret, is her love for her husband —Alessio Romanov.

Then Andrew said in his authoritarian tone. "Then, can you explain the rumors that are circulating among the top about the stretch of your marriage".

Asteria could feel her body sculpted by Andrew's words.

"Added again, the rumor states that if Alessio has another woman behind"

Asteria tries not to show her nervousness. He really did not know how his father could hear such rumors. But Andrew Mikhailov has a thousand and one ways of knowing.

It is not blind and deaf to know that the woman of the upper class is gossiping herself from behind.

It could be bad if his father knew the truth.

Asteria put on the look of pretending to be stupid. "Dad, I don't know if you listen to such cheap gossip. Alessio and I are fine. Now my husband's on business with Maxim". Answer lies.

Andrew looked at him in disbelief. But a second later the middle-aged man sighed. "Don't let me down, Asteria. I don't like having our family humiliated. Anyway, I'm here to ask. Why aren't you pregnant?"

Being asked like that, made Asteria silenced. The woman knew that her father was indeed a figure who liked the obvious origin when talking. But still, being asked like this made him feel very uncomfortable.

Apparently, it's not just him who feels that way. Because Isabella also glanced at him. The woman was obviously uncomfortable, yet she also did not dare to go against her husband Andrew.

Asteria who was asked like that also did not know what to say. Alessio always wears safety with him.

Looking at his daughter, Andrew said. "A son will vouch for your position as mistress Romanov to be stronger. If you give Alessio the heir. Then surely your degree as Lady Romanov will be increasingly recognized. You have to move fast Asteria, a lot of women out there who dream of being Alessio's wife. You should use this opportunity as well as you can"

This is the reason why Asteria let herself step into the house of Lyra and Alessio. Everyone began to suspect, as well as rumors started to spread. He should be quick to discuss this with Alessio.

But the result is nil. He's been here for an hour. And neither Lyra nor Alessio —Asteria see both here. The servants kept their mouths shut no one would tell him.

Then as he was about to despair, he saw a man with blond hair and a black suit that passed in front of him.

Alexander Konstantine's.

He immediately chased the man. He repeatedly called his name but was not ignored by the blond man.

"Alexander!"

"Alexander!"

"Alexander!"

Because they are ignored. Asteria grabbed Alexander's hand and stopped the man.

Alexander turned around. His blue eyes stared intently at Asteria. Asteria gulped her saliva.

Since he knew Alessio. Asteria never interacted with Alexander. The man was too intimidating. Alexander doesn't seem to like him either.

"Alexander's. What are you doing here?".

Alexander looked at him flatly. There was absolutely no sign that he was happy to talk to Asteria.

"What are you doing here?"

A guy like Alexander. Answering questions with questions.

He had to be patient a lot for that.

Asteria gave a rough sigh. "Can't you? this is my husband's house. You what are you doing here?"

"Nothing"

Asteria swooped her eyebrows. "none. So you're not here to steal?"

"It's none of your business at all"

"Hey! Alessio is my husband. And this is his house. Of course this is my business!"

"Then? the lady of this house is not you"

Asteria is really stuck. Alexander's words were really piercing.

Asteria clenched her hands. Trying to be patient handling this ice man.

"Whatever. Just tell me, where's Alessio?"

"In the Maldives"

"Pardon?"

"He's in the Maldives with Lyra"

Asteria could feel her body limp as soon as she heard Alexander's confession. Alessio's taking Lyra to the Maldives?

A tourist destination that Asteria always wants to visit. Even at the beginning of their marriage, Asteria told Alessio that she wanted to honeymoon in the Maldives. But Alessio always refused.

And now the man took Lyra to the Maldives?

To her surprise, Asteria did not realize that Alexander was already beside her.

The man whispered low in his ear. "I suggest you just give up, Lyra is no match for you".
