The Pledge of the Ingkar
IYI 91'S

William felt familiar with the voice, immediately looking back. When William saw Zoya there, William felt her blood freeze right then and there. William could not say anything, William just continued to stare towards Zoya with his pale face, as if William had seen a ghost during the day. Making Willi feel his whole body so cold, don't be the fear that comes to his mind.

Renata, who felt William's body stiffen slightly, also turned to the direction William saw. There Renata saw a woman who looked quite beautiful, carrying two boxes of food in her hands. Renata did not know the woman, but Renata also felt that the woman's face had been seen by her. Renata tried to think harder, in order to remember the face of the woman before him at this time. After a while, it was too unconscious that the woman was William's wife.

Zoya could only hold the handle of the stockbox in her hand so tightly. Trying to withstand the turmoil of his heart that is currently burning because of the anger that arises there. Because Zoya could clearly see how William kept hugging the woman in front of her. It feels like Zoya wants to laugh at herself right now. Because Zoya is too young to forgive William, it turns out that the pleasure she felt last night was just the pseudo happiness offered by William. Why is Zoya so naive?

Seeing Zoya's disappointed face, William felt a pain in his heart. William never expected Zoya to show such emotions in front of him. Moreover, William realized, if at this time Zoya had just given him a second chance. William also still vividly remembers the deal they made, before Zoya forgives him. That's why William mustn't make a mistake that Zoya can't forgive anymore.

When William felt a movement in his arms, William only realized that he had continued to embrace Renata ever since. Reflexively, Willia. immediately pushed Renata, and untied the embrace between them. William can't let Zoya see William as guilty. Because William won't lose Zoya. Her life would have felt terrible, if there was no Zoya by her side. William has felt it for the past few days, William does not want it all to happen again.

“Darling, since when were you there? Why didn't I notice your presence, honey?” william asked in a slightly trembling voice as a sign that William was nervous right now.

“I was here long enough. At first I wanted to tell you about my arrival, but when I called your phone, you didn't answer at all. That's why I chose to come here right away. Who would have thought that I would see such a great show, right in front of my eyes.” Zoya answers William's question while walking towards William. Makes William even more nervous about it. Zoya can only smile, as she watches how scared William is to see his presence.

“Sayanh, I can explain everything to you, all this is not what you see. So please listen to my explanation first before you deduce what you are seeing right now. Please don't think badly of me, because I swear, that what you're seeing right now is not what you think.” William ignores Renata, and approaches Zoya. Trying to explain everything while holding Zoya's hand.

"I don't like it when you touch me after touching another woman" Zoya whispered, shaking William's hand.

Seeing William's unusual behavior like this, it makes Zoya even more disappointed. Because Willia is like a man caught cheating by his partner. Makes Zoya's heart ache when she thinks about it. “What am I thinking now, baby? Why do you look so tense like this? You also started sweating. I think the air conditioning is in a pretty good place. What's wrong with you?” asked Zoya while wiping the sweat on William's forehead.

“I but if you'd think that I was betraying you. None of this is what you think, after all I can explain all the events that happened from beginning to end. So you can better conclude what you're seeing right now. I'm going to introduce this woman to you. This is Renata, my long-lost ex-fiance. Renata, introduce, this is Zoya, the woman I've been married to for almost two years and the one I love so much.” William immediately introduces Renata and Zoya. I wish the two of them could be good friends.

Zoya again notices the woman who was previously in William's arms. Zoya must accept, if Renata has a beautiful face. No wonder William loved her so much. “Halo, Renata, nice to meet you. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you before. Because I haven't seen your face in all this time. Now that I can get to know you in person, I have long been curious about the woman who was in William's past. I hope you are also happy to meet me at this time.”

“Iya, nice to meet you too, Zoya. Thank you for accompanying William as long as I'm not by his side.” Renata can only say all that nonsense to Zoya. Because Renaya also doesn't know how to treat Zoya right now. If Zoya had acted just like any other woman, it would have been easier for Renata to snatch William away from her. Then how did Renata deal with the woman who showed genuine kindness in front of him at this moment? Renata also felt Zoya's cold demeanor despite looking gentle, and it made her guts slightly lessened.

Zoya is not a foolish woman, who will be easily bullied by other women. Although Renata knew William first. But the agreement that Zoya and William agreed on earlier is over. William has also expressed his feelings for Zoya, how can Zoya let go of her loved ones just like that, without trying to fight for her rights as a wife.

Renata can also understand the meaning of every sentence Zoya tells her. Zoya clearly asks Renata to keep her attitude when dealing with William. Now William's status has changed. Renata has no right to ask William back, simply because Renata was William's previous wife-to-be. However, Renata feels entitled to fight for his love back. So Renata won't obey Zoya so easily. Because everything is justified in war and love.

“I'm looking forward to your invitation, Zoya. I can also recommend some of William's favorite foods to you. Moreover, the food in the green restaurant, we often spent time eating there. And the goat's bolster menu, was the food William always ordered for me, because William knew that I liked it so much. We could spend some time eating together there. I hope you won't mind my invitation, Zoya." Renata shows Zoya how many memories the two of them created.

Hearing the food menu said by Renata, Zoya's heart felt sliced when she heard it. Because William also always ordered the food for him. Did William do this, because William remembered Renata on every date? “Of course I won't mind, we can enjoy the food at the green restaurant on the weekend. Because normally William and I would date every weekend.”

“Zoya, I ordered Renata goat bolting that is in Botin restaurant, because it is one of the mainstay menu in the restaurant. That's why I recommend it to you too. There is nothing special about this menu. If they had any other featured menu, I would also definitely order that for you, dear,” William immediately cut off their conversation, before Renata said something William did not want to hear. William doesn't want Zoya to think strangely about him.

Renata is quite disappointed when Willi says it to Zoya. Renata begins to think, has William really fallen in love with Zoya? So William had to correct Renata's previous speech. It was as if Zoya would misunderstand after hearing Renata's words. Though Renata does this only to show Zoya how much William is so considerate of her. William always treated her special.

“Really? I was afraid that you would order the food for another reason. We'll be in lunch soon. What if we invite Renata to eat with us? We can order one of your employees to buy Renata food. Because I didn't bring any more food today. Are you ready to eat with us this afternoon, Renata?” asked Zoya who deliberately provoked Renata's anger. Where could Renata be willing to eat with them.

“I already have an appointment with my mom this afternoon. So I can't eat with you guys this time. Maybe we can arrange our meeting next time. I have to go now, see you, William.” Renata immediately leaves the place, having said everything he wanted to convey to Zoya.

After seeing Renata's departure, Zoya felt very satisfied, as she finally realized to go alone. Otherwise, Zoya will force him to leave. “I don't think you need to fire your employees, because they're just doing the job Dad gave them. All of this is just a misunderstanding. I want you to focus more on your job and your career, William. Because you are a leader that many people should follow. I don't want something like this to happen again in the future,” said Zoya who asked William to cancel William's previous decision.

“Alright, I'll do everything as you want. You can all go and continue your work now!” william's orders to some of the employees who are still in the lobby.
