Ruby could only be stunned when she heard Joshua's words that she really never thought before. He still does not believe that Joshua is currently proposing to him. Something that wasn't even in his shadow at all.

His gaze led to a ring that was in the man's hand. Alternately looking at Joshua who was also looking at him expectantly. Ruby really did not know what decision she would take. He is filled with worry.

Joshua who saw the doubt on the woman's face immediately sigh*hkan breath into the air roughly. It's like knowing what makes Ruby that much. "You don't have to accept this proposal, but I hope you answer it according to your heart" he said resignedly.

Ruby still kept her mouth shut for a while. "I-I haven't felt worthy to be with you."

"Why do you think that?" Joshua got up on his feet as he felt tired of squatting ever since.

"I'm not sure I can be a good woman to you. In fact, I have a lot of flaws. I don't even feel comparable to you. We are so different." Ruby breathed in a deep breath. "Are you sure you can accept me for who I am?"

"of course. My heart has chosen you without a doubt. I'm not forcing you to accept either. Answer according to your heart" said Joshua softly. 

Ruby was still silently thinking carefully.

"Then. I accepted this proposal" Ruby said. Making Joshua's lips shut tight for a while.

He only realized when he heard a standing ovation from his family members. Joshua was very happy because Ruby did not reject this proposal. In fact, Joshua impatiently wanted to discuss when their wedding would be held. However, Ruby refused firmly.

He wanted to discuss this when Nicky was already in Indonesia because Nicky would be his guardian later if they married. They also agree with the woman's words because it should be like that.

Meanwhile, Rere and Nicky exhale in relief as Aunt Gracia is thrown in jail. With his cleverness Nicky managed to uncover the brain behind the accident his parents are the aunt. The accident was deliberately done by Aunt Gracia to take the property of the Nicky family and now the property that was previously seized was now back.

After the business with Nicky's family was over. Now, Rere was feeling uneasy as he was on his way to his parents' place. Actually he had refused, but Nicky kept forcing to come there. For a long time he did not set foot in his parents' house making Rere not sure whether his parents still want to accept him or not.

Rere could still feel the disappointment felt by his parents because he himself felt sorry for it. However, Rere confirmed Nicky's suggestion, what's wrong with trying to meet up and talk things through. 

Realizing the anxiety felt by his wife, Nicky immediately clasped the woman's hand tightly. It was as if channeling a calmness that made Rere a little able to breathe a sigh of relief.

When the car had entered the courtyard of the Rere family home, the woman's heart beat faster. It feels restless and not bad. In fact, it was evident several times Rere inhaled his deep breath.

"Mk ...."

"Calm down. I'll talk to your mom and dad." Nicky gives his wife a breath of fresh air. Rere nodded weakly then immediately got out of the car.

"Why did you come here!" The woman's voice boomed and sounded so trembling. He is still angry with Rere, but it is undeniable that the woman misses his daughter so much. 

Almost every night he cried for Rere. 

"Ma-Mama." Rere knelt at Belinda's feet and had even kissed the woman's soles. Belinda blinked quickly as she felt a warm liquid coming out of her eye patch. "I'm sorry Rere, Ma." 

"I don't think you'll ever step on foot in this house again" she said, still holding back the crying so as not to harden. Though he was eager to ask Rere to stand up and hug his daughter tightly. However, he held back. 

"Tante, can we come in and explain everything? Moreover, my wife is exhausted and has not long since given birth," said Nicky deliberately. Make Belinda's eyeballs fully rounded. 

"What does this mean?" tanyanya's confused. However, Nicky did not want to answer if Belinda did not invite in. With a hurry, Belinda asked them to immediately sit in the living room.  

Belinda calls Cakra, her husband, and says that their daughter is coming. Now, the four of them sat in the living room. Cakra's gaze was so probing and demanding an answer. 

Nicky explained everything clearly. About Rere who is pregnant has even given birth, also those who are married in series. Nicky did not miss saying sorry many times, while Rere just kept quiet and let her husband explain everything. 

"Re, is everything true?" tanya Cakra demanded an answer.

Rere nodded weakly. "Yes, Pa. I came here to apologize to you. If I can't come here anymore, that's okay. Most importantly I'm happy to see you and mom in good health." 

"You sure you don't want to come here anymore?" ask Belinda. His voice was hoarse as it held back the crying. Rere did not reply, only bowed deeply. 

"Let papa trust you more, will you bring your son here. To make sure that you don't lie" tell Cakra. 

"I can only show you the picture, Pa. Now he is in Indonesia. I leave it to Jason, and in a few days I'll be back in Indonesia to pick him up" Rere said in a heavy voice. "I don't want anyone to hurt my son, Pa. Just being away from her made me feel empty." 

"You love that kid so much? The child is the result of a mistake." The chakras hold emotions. Her memory was turned back when Rere said she was tainted by her lover. 

"Yes wrong and sinful are his parents not him, Pa. After all, I've been pregnant with it for nine months. Take her wherever I go, and I leave for a few months and now I won't leave her again, Pa." Rere wiped his tears. He really misses Clay. 

"It's up to you, but I hope you can bring your son here. Maybe papa will consider everything later." The chakras rise and leave the living room. Just leave them alone. 

Rere just stared at the back of the papa who slowly moved away from the view. 

He knew that the father could not take it anymore properly, while Belinda hugged her daughter to vent the passionate longing. 

Nicky gave thanks in his heart, even though they have not spoken yet will accept Rere, but from the attitude of the two people Rere, who have not yet spoken, he could judge that actually Rere's parents had forgiven his only daughter a long time ago. 

Hopefully after this, you can really find happiness. Including our happiness. Inner Nicky exhaled a sigh of relief.
