Happy reading!
Zoya tried to shake off the nervousness that was enveloping her heart. He tried to behave in accordance with what had been planned by Lucas and did not want to make everything fall apart. After being much calmer, Zoya is now able to smile kindly at Lucas' parents.
"Zoya, where do you live?" belinda asked carefully as she tried to make Zoya as comfortable as possible so that Lucas' chosen woman would be able to live comfortably in her house after marriage.
"I live in Kelapa Gading, Auntie."
"Where did you meet Lucas?" ask Belinda again who increasingly wants to know the beginning of her son's closeness with Zoya.
"Actually me and Lucas first met at the wedding of one of my business partners, Auntie. And, incidentally it was also Lucas' business partner. There we got to know each other for the first time and exchanged mobile numbers. After that, we often met, especially the business we live together in the property sector. That's why Lucas and I felt a frequency until we agreed to have more than just friends."
Belinda smiled. He was a little surprised because his son never told him about his personal life. "Well, your meeting is quite unique yes and can get this serious to step into the marriage stage. So how long have you been dating? Sorry, we really don't know about your relationship, because Lucas never told Om and Auntie about you. So we figured that Lucas was still alone."
Zoya responded with her friendly smile. The smile that immediately made Belinda can judge if the woman in front of her is a good woman. "Either he was friendly or just pretended to want to take my heart. But if I look, it seems like she is indeed a good woman," Belinda thought a little about Zoya after seeing the way the woman answered her question.
"No need to apologize, Auntie. My relationship with Lucas has not been long. Yeah, it's only been running for half a year. It's just that time I didn't want to rush into marriage because I still wanted to focus on managing my father's company, but Lucas told me he would be betrothed. Hence, I steadied myself to come here and get acquainted with Om and Auntie. I'd like to tell you straight if I'm ready to marry Lucas soon."
Hearing Zoya's story, a thin smile is immediately reflected from both corners of Edward's lips. "What company did you manage to resist the marriage invitation of my son?" he asked with disdain.
Zoya tried to remain calm when she heard the question from Edward while looking at her face getting sharper than before. "Royal Citi Group is my father's legacy company, Om. It's not very big, but the business is growing rapidly at the moment as long as I lead."
"My father is dead, but I still have a mother, Om."
"So what's the reason you're now suddenly ready to marry my son? Didn't you reject it because you want to focus on your career? Why don't you let Lucas marry the woman his parents chose?" Edward was still not satisfied asking and continued to pry information about Zoya.
Zoya also appeared to squeeze the end of the dress she wore with palms that had been moistened by cold sweat. His lips began to tremble as he was about to answer Edward's words. However, Zoya tries to respond casually so that the scenario devised by Lucas runs smoothly until the end of the meeting.
"Because I really love Lucas. I'm not willing if she's married to another woman and the most important thing is because I'm currently pregnant with Lucas's child!" zoya replied with her firm and stressed voice.
Zoya's reply left Belinda and Edward both shocked. Not long ago they only found out if Lucas was sentenced to barren after the accident he experienced. The verdict that makes both of them must bury their dreams to have a grandson from Lucas. Even to this day, both Edward and Belinda still feel deep sadness because of the harsh reality. Of course, both were devastated because their hopes of seeing the descendants of Dekawistara had to be dashed.
"Is this woman really pregnant with Lucas' child?" edward's mind doesn't just believe Zoya's words. Even in his current mind, he immediately wanted to contact his trusted assistant to directly investigate Zoya's origin and find out about her pregnancy.
Unlike Belinda, the middle-aged woman was really happy to hear Zoya's words that immediately ignited the hope in her heart to be able to have a grandchild from her son.
"Zoya, are you serious about what you said just now? If so, how old are you right now?" ask Belinda to make sure Zoya doesn't say anything nonsense. The middle-aged woman is now waiting anxiously and hoping that Zoya's answer will be what she expects.
