The Conqueror of the Miss Heart
101. Lapsed Reality

°°°

We can't turn back time and repeat everything. That was what Jasmine had in mind at this moment. He could only regret his actions, how could he let go of something precious that was already in his grasp. If he had been able to be patient a little maybe now that was next to Daniel was him.

At this moment he could not take back what he had thrown away. Daniel also has a partner and he himself has been with the man who is now his husband.

Basically, humans are too greedy, always wanting more than we have today. Forgetting to be grateful and finally getting nothing.

Though Jasmine's life today is very happy with a husband like Vino who is willing to give whatever his wife asks. Vino also accepts the existence of Jasmine's state which until now has not given him any offspring. When they met Daniel at the hospital, they were trying to consult a gynecologist.

"Honey, let's go see Daniel. Congratulations and meet Mr. Starles." Vino, the lack of a man is that he is sometimes less sensitive to the feelings of his wife. Too busy with work until his wife is lonely.

Until now Vino does not know why Jasmine used to prefer him compared to Daniel. Only Jasmine and Daniel knew. Vino knew his wife chose him because she loved him more.

Actually Jasmine is embarrassed if she has to meet Daniel after knowing the reality of who the man really is. However, dodging would only make Vino suspicious. Could Daniel have laughed at him for leaving him because of a treasure? Daniel had more than enough. Not even messing around, he's the son of the number one businessman in the S country. Number one? Imagine how much wealth he has.

Suddenly Jasmine stared dislikefully at the woman standing beside Daniel. Why not just himself. Whyyy???

"Honey, that's Daniel and his wife. Let's go there."

Vino looks so excited to meet his old friend.

Aren't you ashamed of my husband, we better just go home. Wanted Jasmine to say so but only the forced smile she showed.

They were getting closer to Daniel and his wife who were also receiving congratulations from some people. Vino waited for a while until the men left.

"Niel..," said Vino, just as Daniel was cheating on his wife. Of course it made Jasmine sick. The attention that used to be just for her is now felt by other women.

Daniel and Mia turned to someone who called her name.

"Vino.. are you here?" Daniel is quite surprised at first but then he realizes that Vino is now a businessman as well, so it's only natural to be at an event like this.

"We didn't expect to see you here either. Even more so with your family we just found out. It turns out that you are from S country as well and the son of the taun Alex Starles. Why did you cover it up from all of us?"

Yeah, why, Niel, if you told me first I'd never leave you. Jasmine continued in his heart.

Daniel pulled a slight corner of his lips, then looked at the face of the woman who had left him just like that. Now it seems clear that he regretted everything after knowing who he was.

"I just want to succeed on my own without relying on my parents." And that way I can also know who is really sincere and not.

"Great-great.and you've managed to become a good surgeon now. Oh yes, congratulations on your marriage" said Vino, who continues to flatter Daniel.

"Thank you, sir" replied Mia. He smiled politely.

"No need to call me miss sir, introduce me Vino your husband's old friend. We used to be a college in L. A." Vino introduced himself extending his hand.

Mia replied, "I'm Mia, Mr. Vino."

Mia turns to a woman next to a man named Vino. Then smile.

"Hi. I'm Jasmine, greetings to Miss Mia." Jasmine tried to look calm and graceful. Be friendly to Mia, covering up her current feelings.

"Greetings to Ms. Jasmine, it's a pleasure to meet you." Mia felt something else for the woman. Although the woman named Jasmine was smiling at him but the look in her eyes was staring dislike at Mia. Whether it was his feelings or winning like that. Just like the look of the girls who liked her husband.

"Congratulations on your marriage, Niel. I didn't expect we'd see each other again in this country." Jasmine extended her hand to Daniel.

"Thank you" Daniel replied and shook Jasmine's hand briefly.

"Are you going to go ahead with your father's company, Niel?" vino asked breaking the silence.

"No, I'm more interested in my current profession. The company's Daddy and my wife's business, I don't know anything about business. Could have gone out of business overnight if I held the company. My wife knows a lot better than me." Daniel commends his wife, pointing out that the former's choice was wrong. Try if he didn't leave, maybe he'll trust Daddy Alex to run the company.

"Waahhh, what a great Miss Mia, it seems that Mr. Alex also believes in and acknowledges your abilities."

"You're exaggerating sir, I'm just an ordinary secretary."

Jasmine was getting hotter hearing it, how could the woman manage a company as big as a star company. She who has been Vino's wife for how many years has never been included in the company's affairs.

"Oh yeah, you guys enjoy the party. Sorry if we couldn't take too long. We have to see another guest of Daddy." Daniel was polite.

"Sure Niel, you must be busy. Could next time we tomb a night together. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, not a reunion."

"By pleasure, we will come. You just set the time and place."

Daniel then asked his wife to leave them.

"It's not rude to just leave them alone, Niel.." said Mia.

"Why, not the same as the others. Must have been talking about the company and asking for cooperation."

"They're your friends, Niel, how can you think that way about them. Is it because of that woman, somehow I feel she doesn't like me." Mia said what she felt.

"Why is my wife so smart." Daniel pinched his wife's nose.

"Niel.." protested Mia. "So it's true that the woman is the woman who left you first and the man is the man she chose" Mia continued.

Daniel nodded for sure, not wanting to cover anything from his wife. Because he has agreed to make peace with the past.

Mia chuckles... Actually their story is almost the same, abandoned for the sake of something better. Now they say they are sorry.
