The Pawned Wife
Chapter 28 > Application Preparation

Days change weeks, weeks change months, it doesn't feel right now exactly one month Audrey's pawnshop is up. Today Audrey was standing on the balcony of her room staring at the passerby. Audrey's heart was in a state of uneasiness, where she had to decide on two difficult choices.

He's stuck two men at once. On the one hand he wants to continue with Akandra, the man who has always respected and treated him well. However, on the other hand she did not want to divorce her husband. Since she knows very well that she is officially divorced from Devanka, it means that she has failed in a marriage.

Not only that, Audrey also did not know for sure how Akandra felt. What this man who had been with him for a month really loved him because of Allah SWT or because of his look similar to his twin sister. This pawnshop lady is really at a dead end. He doesn't know what to decide?

"Should I go back with my husband or pick out Akandra and accept his offer?" Audrey asked herself.

Since the day's secret room, Audrey did agree with her master that she would call Akandra Big Brother instead of Master again. And Akandra doesn't mind that, as long as Audrey doesn't call her Master again. From then on, Audrey's relationship with Akandra grew closer.

"Follow your heart, Miss," said someone from behind.

Reflexes, Audrey looked directly back. "Bi Lina," called Audrey after seeing the person who was none other than the head of ministry at Xaquille home.

Bi Lina walked towards Audrey with a smile on her lips. Gently, Bi Lina stroked Audrey's face affectionately. "Miss, Auntie understands how you feel right now. Bibi suggests Non just follow Miss' heart. Because forced marriage will not be good ends especially husband Non never treat you properly like a wife in general. Think and decide well," Bi Lina gave Audrey some advice.

"I'm really confused, Bi. I don't know how Mr. Akandra feels about me. Akandra's sister is a man who has always treated me well but I don't want Akandra to marry me just because my face is similar to that of Alessa, my twin sister. I don't want to get married just because of that, Bi." Audrey looked at Bi Lina with a gaze filled with uneasiness.

"Relax, Miss. Mr. Akandra will immediately express his feelings. Be patient soon, believe in the destiny of Allah SWT. Leave everything to Him, God willing, everything will be fine. May Non be given the same guidance Allah SWT." Bi Lina grasped both hands of the pawnshop woman.

"Yes, Bi. I'll follow Aunt's advice. Thank you, because Aunt is always with you and taught me so many things." Audrey hugged Bi Lina affectionately.

She hugged Bi Lina like her own mother. Ever since she came to the Xaquille residence, Audrey had truly felt a happiness that her husband had never given her. It was at Akandra's house that she felt like she was reborn and she felt respected like a woman.

Bi Lina stroked Audrey's back gently. "Yes, now Auntie help get ready, come on." Bi Lina let go of her embrace and smiled.

"Prepared?" Audrey knitted her eyebrows together in confusion.

"Yes, Miss. Mr. Akandra told me to help Non put on makeup. Not only that, you have also bought a dress that will be worn tonight," explained Bi Lina with a cheerful face.

"Is that true, Bi? What's the show tonight? Is this a sign of my farewell to her?" ask Audrey.

"Auntie doesn't know for sure, Non. What is clear is that Miss must get ready soon. Come on, before Mr. Akandra gets upset,"

"Yes, come on." Audrey an Bi Lina left the balcony.

Akandra is currently in one of the rooms that has been decorated with roses and a background that reads the name Audrey. Not only that, Akandra was also telling some of his men to put a musical instrument in the form of a piano in one corner of the room. She's planning to propose to Audrey tonight.

Her heart was set on marrying Audrey. He's willing to spend a lot of money if Devanka wants a lot of ransom. He was already impatient to want to express his feelings to the very adoration of heart, his pawnshop lady.

After the preparations were finished in one of those rooms, Akandra left with her bodyguard, Daniel. She will go buy a diamond ring as a binder from her later relationship with Audrey. In addition, he also invited his sister, Affandra to watch his proposal later tonight.

Meanwhile, Devanka is getting ready to go to Bryce Wilton's elite estate. He had already made plans if he would continue to utilize his wife to give him a lot of money. That way, he could become suddenly rich. No matter how long his wife stays with a foreign man. Devanka never worried about Audrey much less about her.

"I'm not going to pick you up so soon, Audrey. Even though my debt has been paid off, I want you to stay in that house so that you can make a lot of money for me! No matter how long you have to stay with Mr. Akandra, because what I need is not a wife but money" Devanka murmured while holding a picture of his wife on display.

Suddenly his phone rang and the name of Mr. Akandra was seen. Devanka who saw it immediately put a picture of Audrey and answered the phone from Mr. Akandra. With a sly smile, he placed his phone on his right ear.

Phone connected!

"Hallo, Mr. Akandra," Devanka said in a friendly voice.

"It doesn't take much pleasantry, I called you just to tell you to come home later tonight. I have business, and so is your wife!" asserted Mr. Akandra from across the phone.

"Good! I'm waiting for you tonight! Tutt!" Mr. Akandra immediately ended the talks.

Phone disconnected!

Shortly after, Akandra arrived at her sister's residence. He went straight into Affandra's residence after touching and entering the password on the sensor at her door. Daniel followed his master from behind with his groceries.

"Fan, where are you? Here jerk!" Akandra called her sister in a loud voice.

"Sister? When's coming?" ask Affandra who came from the kitchen with a cup of coffee.

"Just come here .. I have something to tell you." Akandra walked towards the middle room.

Arriving in the living room, Akandra and her bodyguard sat on the sofa. Followed by Affandra who sat opposite her brother. She sat up straight and waited for her brother to say something to her.

"I'm going to marry Audrey" Akandra said to the point.

Uhuk! Uhuk!

Affandra who was sipping coffee was immediately choked when she heard her brother's speech. "M-marry Audrey?" ask Affandra with a wave.

"Yes, but I need you, Fan."

"What does my brother need from me?" affandra asked while taking a tissue and wiping her lips.

"I want you to be a witness to my proposal tonight,"

"Tonight?"

"Yes, tonight. If you have another job, just wait. This is more important than work!"

"No problem, Brother. I'm gonna do that. But why tell me now? Why is it suddenly like this? Everything's fine, right?" Affandra looked at her brother seriously.

"What do you mean ask like that, Fan?" Akandra scrunched her forehead.

"Sister didn't impregnate Audrey, did he?" chirps Affandra.

Pluck up!

Akandra immediately took the small pillow next to her and smashed her sister in the face. "Abroad! Although I'm a jerk, I wouldn't dare impregnate Audrey let alone her still being the wife of people" Akandra scolded with her cynical eyes.

"Haha, sorry. I think Brother impregnated her. So, if Audrey is still the wife of people .. How can Sister marry her? Jan said that brother would be a player?" accuse Affandra with a good laugh.

"Your words have never been filtered! I reiterate, I married Audrey because I love her sincerely. Therefore, I want to redeem it from Devanka. I'm gonna take out a lot of my property to buy Audrey. I'll never let Audrey go, she's just mine!"

"Well, wow .. awesome! Real man, this is what I want to see from you, brother. It's been a long time since I've had any ambition to go kek gini. Relax, Brother. Whatever now belongs to Big Brother, it will still be yours. Don't worry, I'll help you." Affandra clapped her hands as a sign of admiration for her brother.
