The Substitute Bride of Mr. Arogan
Darling

As per his promise of lunch together with Mai finally materialized as well. Morgan seemed to be smiling himself sitting in his chair while staring at Mai who looked deftly serving food dishes on the table.

Coincidentally they were only two in the apartment so Morgan was free to do whatever he wanted including doing nosy to Mai.

"Emmm..it looks good, the aroma is so fragrant and uploading tastes." said Morgan amazed and was impatient to taste Mai's cuisine.

Mai just smiled as she was busy serving food on the table.

"Khumaira, please feed me a spoon, I'm impatient to taste it" said Morgan put up a facial expression as cheerful as possible staring at Mai's cooking which is all her favorite food menu.

"Sir Morgan, don't be spoiled like this." said Mai meekly while holding a tablespoon to feed her young master.

"I want to taste this one," Morgan was so enthusiastic about pointing to the balado shrimp which is the mainstay menu.

Then Mai scoops the food and feeds Morgan. While Morgan smiled triumphantly and so greedily chewed his food.

"Wow, this is so good. I'm not willing if you cook for someone else" said Morgan, who began to express his possessiveness.

Mai was only able to smile at his words, where Mai was picking up side dishes on her plate. After that, he sat in his chair.

"Please eat and do not forget to read the prayer" said Mai reminded him, exactly a mother reminded her child before eating.

"Good darling." - timpal Morgan was whiny.

"Darling?" said Mai made her words clear with a smile adorning her lips, even Mai squinted her eyes looking at Morgan. Did he not mishear his young master mention the word dear, he thought.

"Yes Khumaira, from now on I will call you dear." said Morgan did not want to be denied.

"Whatever Morgan's sister, who is obviously Morgan's sister would rather call me that, I have absolutely no problem" Mai looked at him. As a wife, she should be obedient to all her husband's words.

Although Mai still had doubts in her, whether she had really been considered a wife by her young master or was simply familiarizing herself with him.

They seemed to enjoy the food without any more chatter. Just spoons and forks clashing on the table.

After lunch together, Morgan then said goodbye to Mai to return to work.

"Don't forget it's night."

"Yes, inshaallah." Mai smiled sweetly then kissed the back of her hand. Morgan smiled faintly as he touched her cheek then moved to kiss her forehead.

"I go first." she said, and Mai nodded in response to her words.

While elsewhere...

A tall man steps hastily into the gallery of Baleno Hatt. His gaze was circulated looking around him that looked lonely without a single cooking class trainee wandering in the room.

"Why so lonely, what...." The man did not continue his words because he heard the voice of someone calling his name.

"Good afternoon Mr. Devan, there is something I can help you with" said the middle-aged woman who is the organizer of the gallery. And it was a wonder to see the arrival of the gallery owner.

"Good day, Miss Anne, I happened to pass in front of the gallery and it wouldn't hurt to stop by for a second" said the man, who turned out to be Devan.

The middle-aged woman knew Devan so well because that man was the owner of the gallery. Hers she felt strange seeing the arrival of Devan as often as possible visit in Baleno Hatt.

"Where's the participant? what is today..."

"The training is only done three times a week sir, and for today it is still a holiday" explained Ms Anne.

"No, I think the coach is routinely done on weekdays. Maybe because I rarely stop here, so I don't really know all the training schedule" Devan said.

Ms. Anne was only able to frown upon hearing Devan's words. Though clearly yesterday Devan came to visit the gallery. According to him, there is something that is being sought by the single man, to the point of frequent visits in his gallery.

"I'm sorry then." said he, because his goal was to stop by the gallery just to meet with Khumaira. But unfortunately again did not find the figure of a woman adjaan his heart.

Ms. Anne nodded in response to her words and felt strange to see the gallery owner.

Her night....

Morgan and Mai seemed to be getting ready and were helping each other. Their appearance looks different. Morgan was wearing a black suit, while Mai was wearing a blue night dress that matched her hijab and contrasted with her white skin.

It just so happens that tonight they're going to have dinner outside. Not only that, Morgan had already booked a table at the fancy restaurant they would go to for dinner together.

Morgan had everything ready and his dinner this time was so special and romantic as he wished.

"How's Khumaira? are you ready?." asked Morgan who is now sitting on the sofa while waiting for Mai who is still loyal to sit on the dresser chair facing the mirror.

"Wait a minute, sister." timpal Mai while tidying up her hijab.

Morgan then approached him. Morgan stared at Mai's face in the mirror. Her eyes did not blink at all looking at Mai's pretty face in the mirror reflection.

"Who told you to put your makeup on like this, hem." she protested and didn't like it when Mai looked so pretty tonight.

"I just use powder and lip dye, sister." said Mai defended herself. Because what is meant by makeup or dress is me make over the entire face in such a way and so complete. While he only uses powder and lip color.

"Even though you look beautiful, I don't like it when other men look at you" said Morgan sounding sniffly while embracing Mai's body from behind and holding her so possessive.

"Geez, brother, every day I look like this. Wear powder and lip dye, it's just that the dress given by mama that supports my appearance to look beautiful tonight." said Mai modestly, indeed she always appears as is.

"For Morgan's guess, it's very wrong. Alhamdulillah, all this time Mai is grateful that no one glanced at Mai, because thanks to this ring." said Mai while showing her wedding ring on her ring finger.

Morgan smiled at her and then kissed Mai's back. He shouldn't have said that, he should be proud to have a beautiful wife and sholehah anyway.

He was so sick of seeing Malfin and Adelio so possessive of his wife, now in fact he suffered the same fate as his brother.

"Then what about our dinner?" mai asked as she looked at Morgan's face inside the mirror.

"Emmm. I don't seem to want to miss dinner with you, baby." Morgan smiled faintly and kissed Mai's right cheek.

Mai was surprised to make her until the corners of her lips lifted into a smile. Morgan then clings to Mai's hand and takes her out of the room.

It didn't take long for them to be in the car ready to take them to a fancy restaurant located in the city center.

Arriving at the fancy restaurant. Morgan seemed to hold Mai's hand into the restaurant. Morgan circulated his gaze until he was shocked to see his close relatives in the restaurant.

Huff...Why are the three branches here anyway. There are no other restaurants. Inner Morgan was upset.

Morgan immediately takes Mai to the third floor, fearing her existence is known by Dilan, Kendrick and Etha. And sure enough, no one realized his existence because he was busy chatting.

The triad family is so compact and the dryness of the road together, knowing they are still single.

Mai and Morgan are so happy to have dinner with a romantic atmosphere. They even capture their happy moments. In the end Morgan's surprise went well.

"Thank you, sis, I'm very happy with the surprise" said Mai with sparkling eyes radiating happiness.

Morgan was only able to smile then hugged her tightly.

"I promise to always make you happy, dear." asked Morgan.
