The One Night Destiny
Hard Choice

Happy reading!

Along the way Zoya chooses silence while looking out the window. His mind was currently only on his mother whose condition had improved after successfully passing through the critical phase. At least that's what Zoya heard from Lucas' mouth. There's no choice but to believe it, at least until tomorrow when Zoya will meet her mother and Lucas will let her.

"I'm sorry, Mah. It's all because of my mistake. Had I not gone to the Club at that time, I probably would not have met this man," Zoya held back tears from falling down her cheeks. The sadness that turned out to be readable by Bu Ayu who sat next to him.

"Non, who is patient, yes" whispered the middle-aged woman who already regarded Zoya as her own child.

Zoya also looked. Staring at the wrinkled face of Bu Ayu with eyes that are so shady. Look at the eyes that are almost like his mother's. "Thank you Mom for helping me."

No response from Lucas. The man chose to pretend to be closed, even though he heard what the two women said behind his chair.

"So because of that old woman, she got brave with me. It was only fitting for him to ask the woman to stay with him," Lucas growled in his heart.

A moment later the man looked attractive next to the corner of his lips, forming a sly smile with plans that began to arise in his mind. "Look! I'll definitely get rid of the old woman first" Lucas murmured full of plans.

***

After driving Zoya to the apartment, Lucas was back in the back seat as usual. The look on his face was so unfriendly that his personal driver named Erik did not dare to ask where they were headed. Especially after hearing his master's voice when he contacted Alden a few minutes ago. Just then, his voice sounded loud like sparks that were ready to burn anyone who dared to disturb him.

"Sir, sorry to interrupt your time. So where are we going?" Finally Erik asked when it had been too long he was circling in the intersection of Semanggi. A road that is quite iconic becomes a symbol of Jakarta because the architecture is truly stunning, especially when viewed from a height.

"Just go home! I'm already tired. Anyway tomorrow at 9 I have an important meeting."

"All right, sir."

Just as the car driven by Erik was about to turn towards Lucas' house, suddenly Lucas' phone rang again. This time it was not Alden who contacted him, but rather a woman he was about to marry soon.

"Why did he call me?" Lucas throws his cell phone next to an uninhabited car seat. Letting that flat object keep ringing until it finally just dies. "I don't want to be disturbed." While resuscitating his body, the man exhaled his breath violently while rubbing his face many times. He was increasingly upset by the reality that now befell his life. In addition to his frustrating infertility condition, Lucas must also accept the fact that in the near future his unwanted marriage with Flora must occur. Yes, although the man insisted on refusing, but nevertheless he had no power against the will of his father because of the agreement that one month ago they had agreed.

"Wait a minute." Suddenly a glimmer of hope appeared in his mind. However, that thought he quickly threw away. "No, no. How could I possibly have such a stupid mind."

Lucas remained silent without expression. He was all his might to reject what was dancing in his head at this moment. He begins to think hard, finding a better way to thwart his marriage to Flora. "It seems like there's no other way than that. Daddy once said if I could take a woman this month to be my wife, then I could marry that woman and she would automatically no longer force me to marry Flora," inner Lucas began to run out of ways and almost certainly did something he didn't really want to do. But he thinks back. For him, it was better to marry a woman who could be arranged and he could throw away easily than to marry Flora who was his equal and could manage his life.
