Shackles Love Hot Daddy
Chapter 55. Backward 45 Minutes

Like his parents' decision, Darrell will have an engagement party at the mansion. Everything is prepared. However, before that Darrell and Sharron went first to Austria to finish their work.

It was because the manager where Sharron worked disagreed with Sharron's decision to come out unilaterally. It's clearly against the rules. After negotiating, finally the party where Sharron worked was willing to accept the intended compensation. Not one million Euros, but two million Euros. Darrell was ready to pay the price, so Alan intervened to fly to Austria suddenly.

"It's all done, sir. We managed to redeem Miss Sharron for two million Euros. I've been negotiating to keep paying a million, they've turned it down" Alan explained while he was with Darrell.

Sharron is currently in the car. The time is not long because at the moment they have to go back to Italy. Last night they had just arrived in Austria, followed by Alan Darrell.

Alan's arrival was already planned. No wonder the two are together.

"Sir, are you straight back?" alan asked as the two approached the parking lot.

"Tonight is my engagement to Sharron. I think you can come with me, too" Darrell said.

Complicated logic for Alan. He couldn't possibly book a flight to Italy so soon.

"Sorry, Sir. I can only congratulate you. I'd better get back to Mexico. Work is waiting" Alan refused.

"thank you. Go find a partner! Don't keep being alone. I approve of whoever your partner is."

It was so good to be Alan. He trusted Javer Wesley to take care of his son's company. He was also asked to be quick to find a mate by his superiors. This is really a perfect thing.

Darrell's decision to return to his parents' mansion was correct. The journey from Klagenfurt to Vienna takes approximately 3.5 hours. The flight from Vienna to Rome was about an hour. That's why Darrell rushed to return.

...****************...

The atmosphere of the mansion at night. All preparations are in order. Allegra deployed all the servants of the mansion, including the matter of food. The mansion chef prepared it. Appetizer, main course, and dessert. All prepared by a reliable Chef assisted by some of his assistants. In addition to the food menu, do not forget drinks of various types and some kinds of wine ranging from the usual aroma to very strong available there. There are Arnione, Valdisanti, and several other types of Wine.

Now that's not the problem. As the time approached, Darrell and Sharron did not come, causing Allegra to be very anxious.

"Pa, what if they don't come? The business in Austria must have taken a long time. Mama was worried. The invited guests have all come" Allegra said in the room prepared for Sharron to prepare. In addition, there is also a dress that Sharron will use tonight.

Allegra walked to and fro because he was worried that the child and the candidate were not coming.

"Ma, please stop worrying about your son. He'll definitely be here in time. Even if it's a little late, no problem. The most important thing is not to forget to prepare all the preparations, including the hereditary jewelry of our family" explained Javer.

Allegra surprised. This was the first time the husband had discussed the last piece of jewelry given to Allegra. It was time for the jewelry to be given to Sharron. It's weird, isn't it? If Callie had been his son-in-law in the past, why didn't she get jewelry like Sharron would?

"You're sure Darrell and Sharron must love each other?" ask Allegra.

"Sure! I saw honesty in his eyes. He deserves all this."

"What about Callie in the past?"

"My son married at the request of his father Callie as a sense of responsibility of a man to the woman he loved. I know that Callie never really loved Darrell."

Allegra was surprised. However, whatever happened in the past has been lost. His thoughts were currently fixed on Darrell who had not come.

A servant called Allegra because an important guest had come.

"Mrs, outside there are important guests. He said he wanted to see the lady" said the waiter.

"Mr Marcello. He came alone, Madam."

"alright. I'll be there soon" Allegra replied.

After the departure of the waiter, Allegra and Javer looked at each other for a moment.

"You invited him?" ask Allegra.

"Yes. He still has a relationship with my family. He's the son of my best friend. I think you know very well that, Allegra."

"Then we meet together" Allegra asked.

Javer did not refuse. As hosts, they try to give their best to their guests.

"You coming, Marcello?" greet Javer.

"Yes, Om. I was surprised to get this engagement invitation. Are Callie and Darrell officially divorced?" ask Marcello. The last time we met was in Switzerland. There was no word at all about Callie or Darrell.

"Callie died a few months ago in a single accident with Darrell" Allegra said.

The deg!

Callie's dead? Why didn't anyone tell me? Or, Darrell deliberately harmed his wife so that she could marry another woman? But, the name of his future fiancee was not foreign. Like the name of the famous Austrian model I've met.

"I don't know at all, Auntie," said Marcello.

"Yes, we were all busy with his funeral" Allegra said. At that time, the only one who was taking care of him was Alan.

"Ah, yes. No problem, Auntie. Um, then where's Darrell? Shouldn't he be getting ready?"

Allegra's anxiety increased again because of Marcello's words just now. Every now and then he saw his watch making Allegra grow anxious.

"Pa, 10 minutes from now, the show is about to start, but Darrell and Sharron aren't here yet. Don't they run away, Pa?" allegra asked half a whisper.

Allegra's concerns were stalled when a servant told him that Darrell and his candidate had arrived at the mansion. The two of them headed straight to the place to change their clothes.

"Ehm, Marcello, Aunt stay a while, yeah. Darrell's coming, '" she said.

Javer is still at his place with his guests. Let it be his wife's business.

"Why are you late?" asked Allegra who was currently looking at them in such a mess.

"Sorry, Ma. The road from the airport to the mansion is a bit congested. I chose the detour. I expected it to be a few minutes late" Darrell said.

"Yes, clean yourself up first. After that there'll be someone to help Sharron get ready."

It takes a pretty decent time so the engagement event is delayed by about 45 minutes. Actually, the guests were impatient to see Darrell and his future fiance. Last time they got word that Darrell was married to Callie without a wedding party in general. Just this time the public learned of the engagement of Darrell and a woman he said had been a model in Austria.
