Finally, the wedding day has arrived. These were very thrilling as well as happy times for Renata. She felt so nervous that even though this was not her first marriage, do not forget that Renata had also been married to Jefra in the past.
Renata saw her reflection in the mirror that was quite large, since the morning she had been dressed as a doll by a makeup artist. The girl appeared with a blend of blush on pink and soft red lipstick, a simple natural makeup but made her look amazingly beautiful, her long hair was embraced by using diamond accessories.
Then a smile is engraved. His heart has been pumping so hard since. Renata waited anxiously. Seconds by second felt so slow today. Many times Renata stared at the wall clock, and it felt as if the clock was unwilling to move. He was waiting for someone to pick him up to go to the wedding venue.
Knocks... Knocks...
The sound of knocking on the door made Renata jump slightly. Then look back at the wall clock. There were twenty minutes before someone picked him up.
Who is knocking on the door?
"Angel, this is Aunt Sienna. Can Auntie come in?"
Renata. Why did the mother of Alvaro and the stepmother of her future husband come to see her? Shouldn't a Madam Tjong be welcoming to the guests present?
"Yes, Aunt Sienna. Just go in."
Cclek
The door opens and shows Sienna who looks elegant and glamorous in a gold dress.
"You're so beautiful, Angel," Sienna stepped closer to Renata who was still sitting in front of the dresser.
"Thank you, Auntie," Renata tried to be friendly despite being a bit shy.
"Tante is worried. You must be tired of waiting alone. So Auntie came to accompany you, as well as familiarize herself with my beautiful daughter-in-law."
"I'm not bored, I'm just nervous" Renata said honestly, but he felt something was off about Sienna.
Familiarize yourself with the future son-in-law? Is that true, or is there some other meaning?
Then Sienna pulled out a chair for herself to sit opposite Renata. It did not escape from Renata's view, actually he was less comfortable and suspicious of the arrival of Sienna.
"Are you happy?" ask Sienna afterwards.
"I mean, Auntie?" asked Renata because he did not understand the ambiguous question posed by Sienna.
"Are you married to J? Don't you love Alvaro?"
Oh, looks like Renata is starting to understand the intention of Sienna's arrival.
"Sorry before, Aunt Sienna. I think that question is too sensitive to ask," Renata said as if to avoid the question.
"Ah, are you uncomfortable?" Sienna showed an unpleasant expression.
Of course it's uncomfortable!
However, Renata chose not to answer clearly. He just nodded and smiled awkwardly.
"There's no need to be that awkward," Sienna laughed elegantly with a shut up.
"Alright," Renata still smiled awkwardly.
"Without you answering, Auntie knows that you still love Alvaro. That's evident because you've always been after Alvaro despite being married to Sanaya."
Heh! That first!
It was very much like Renata to scream in denial. Sienna could bring up something that had already passed. Does the middle-aged woman not know if she is not chasing after Alvaro anymore?
In fact, Sienna did not know.
"Tante will help you get back together with Alvaro. Didn't you ask Auntie for help separating Alvaro and Sanaya?"
Oh, Renata remember now. The novel says Angel once asked Sienna for help, but the middle-aged woman ignored Angel's request.
"That was then, now I don't need Aunt's help. Anyway I don't love Alvaro anymore" Renata said.
Sienna looked somewhat surprised, as if it was unexpected that the girl sitting opposite him would refuse his help.
However, Sienna would not give up so easily.
"Aunty couldn't help you because Alvaro trusted Sanaya so much that she had deceived him. Auntie likes you a lot, Angel. Aunty wishes that you were the one who married Alvaro. You guys are so fit. Do you know what? Alvaro used to tell me how much he admired you..."
Renata was silent to hear every word Sienna spoke even though her ears were hot.
"Did Alvaro tell Auntie to say this?"
Renata asked because he thought that Alvaro was the one who told Sienna to persuade him. Renata becomes upset with Alvaro, but the man says he wants to move on. What was the saying of that time just bragging?
"No, Alvaro didn't tell Auntie."
Renata's eyes are squeaking. It turned out to be Sienna's own initiative.
"Auntie just wants to see you guys together. Can you guys be together again? And for the baby you carry... Can you drop it? Auntie knows that you don't really want J's kid. You can escape this marriage if you abort the child. Auntie will help you escape. After that you can live together with Alvaro."
As soon as Renata's face hardened, her hands behind the table clenched. His suspicions are correct. Sienna's arrival here wasn't well-meaning.
Yes, Sienna's intention was actually to thwart a marriage that would last a few minutes, so Jefra Tjong would bear the shame that the bride ran away, which would end up damaging her reputation. After all, Sienna could not allow Jefra to marry Renata either, as it could further strengthen Jefra Tjong's position as the Tan family would be on her side.
Sienna would have trouble if that happened. Alvaro will be under Jefra. Though Sienna wants if Jefra married a woman of his choice who can be easily used.
In essence, Sienna was extremely dislikeful of Renata and Jefra's marriage.
However, Sienna did not know if Renata would not be able to provoke him.
Renata smiled cynically, "It turns out Aunt Sienna isn't as good as I thought."
Sienna shook her head, not expecting Renata to say that to her.
"It looks like I can't get along with Auntie, because I can't possibly do what Auntie said. One thing Aunty should know, I can't possibly leave Jefra Tjong. Our marriage will still happen."
Renata's words left Sienna speechless. Now Sienna's face was already flushed red, from shame and anger.
"Unfortunately, my love for Alvaro is completely gone. I don't care about your son who still loves me. Because now all I love is Jefra Tjong, the man I'm getting married to today."
Sienna's gaze turned sharp. He no longer cares about hospitality.
"You think you'd be happy if you married Jefra Tjong?" Sienna asked as if Renata's choice of still wanting to marry Jefra was wrong.
Renata again smiled cynically, "To him I am or not, it's none of your business, Miss Sienna."
Then the two stared intently at each other. The initial desire of Sienna who wanted to familiarize himself with Renata actually ended in hostility.
After failing to provoke Alvaro, Sienna also failed to provoke Renata.
Knocks... Knocks...
The sound of knocking on the door interrupts.
"Is Miss ready? The show's about to start."
There was the sound of a woman picking up Renata.
"I'll excuse you. Aunty can stay here if she doesn't want to see my wedding."
Renata got up to the door after saying something that made Sienna grow furious.
Then Renata stepped out of her room accompanied by five bridesmaids.
The deg!
Each step of Renata's heart rate increases.
On a green bed decorated with flowers. Starting from the decoration of the guarantee, the seating of invited guests, the dining table, to the location is also in the flower garden, which is a silent witness to the wedding of Angelica Renata Tan and Jefra Tjong.
It looks like the flower girl who wears a flower crown is sowing flowers when Renata who wears a long white dress and studded with sequins steps up gracefully.
Renata's feelings rose when his eyes collided with a pair of black eyes belonging to Mr. J who was wearing a white suit. His face was flushed and hundreds of butterflies seemed to be flying on his stomach.
The sensation he had once felt.
Then the marriage procession began.
