Embrace Love's

Ch 124's. Will consider

Joanna stood up to greet the guests she invited at the party she hosted in the spacious hall of a hotel to introduce Simon to their business relations. He also invited close friends like Robert Delaney.

The handsome doctor came in a black tuxedo with a bow tie. He greeted Joanna and Claude.

"Hello Yoana, Claude."

"Robert .. You have arrived ...." Joanna reached out a hand that Robert immediately greeted. The man kissed the back of his hand.

"Go, Yoan. Stay with Robert" Claude said.

Joanna nodded, then passed from there in Robert's hand. Hamilton, watching from a distance as the handsome doctor came and Yiana went to get closer to Claude.

"Something seems to have been missed by me. Who's that guy, Claude? "

"Oh, that's Robert Delaney, Uncle. Someone who is close to Joanna."

"Did Vincent know?"

"Yes .. That, look there. His eyes could not escape Yoan and Robert."

"Hmmm .. looks like there'll be an interesting show later, Claude."

Claude chuckled, he just nodded with a smile at the guests who came and greeted him and Hamilton.

**********

Yoana turned around and danced with a face full of happy smiles. Seemed happy in Robert's arms.

"Sorry, Yoan. But ... will I help you? Of course I don't have any intentions. But as your friend, I'm very worried about Mr. Machado. Even a fool would know how he feels about you." Robert slightly lowered his head, in order to get a little closer to Joanna's ears. Know for sure his every move was supervised by Vincent.

"What kind of help do you want to give, Robert?" ask Yoan.

"Oh .. just a trick. A person will feel an instinct to maintain and take something that he basically wants in the bottom of his heart, when he feels something is threatened to be taken or owned by others."

Joanna smiled widely.

"Is that something I?"

Robert chuckled softly, displaying an apologetic face.

"It feels like you're likening yourself to something. Sorry ... I just kinda .. I don't know, how to say it."

"No need to explain, Robert. I know."

"So how?"

"Just do it" said Joanna amused.

Hearing the agreement, Robert wrapped around Joanna's waist tighter.

"Did you know he was staring at us?"

"Hu um ...." Joanna turned to Robert who looked down and spoke very close to her face.

"What if we go on a date? Said we'd meet at the Lazarus hotel. Before we went together to pick a ring." Robert turned his head towards Joanna's fingers which were in his hands. Then deliberately twirled her finger on Yoana's ring finger.

"Ring?"

"Oh, do you mind getting engaged?"

Yoana's laughter broke along with the music that ended. They walked to the edge of the dance floor with their lips still leaving a smile.

Vincent looked at all of that with a troubled heart. He could not stop that bad feeling. Especially when Robert turns his finger on Yoana's ring finger.

Catalina and Mary sat on the long sofa while chatting. Catty waited for Claude who was still busy with the guests. They came to the feast held by Joanna. Joanna herself invited.

"Dance ... You know that girl?" ask Mary while squinting.

"Which one? "

"That's. Who's tangled in Claude's arms." Mary had seen the girl before.

"What! Where's !"

Catalina searched in the direction Mary pointed.

"Isn't that Miss Tania Sweyn?" ask Mary.

"Hufha! Youre right. She's Miss Sweyn. Claude's ex-fiancee was."

"Go over there. Look Claude seems to be trying to leave, he's like a leech."

"Yes .. and who am I? Fiancee no, wife moreover ... But she's still my lover! I'm going there!" Catalina got up and went to Claude's place.

Marylin smiled when she saw Claude welcoming her sister and Catalina pulled Claude away from Miss Sweyn who looked very upset. Mary remembers the moment when Serge said Catalina didn't want to get married because she was worried about him. Until when will he continue to be a burden on his sister?

"You alone?"

Mary gasped at the question from the voice she had already heard.

He looked up but did not answer.

"May I sit down?" ask Alric.

"Sit down .. This isn't my chair."

Alric sat down and for a whole minute they just kept quiet and looked at the guests in the hall.

"Wanna dance with me?"

"No."

"Do you want a drink?"

Then they remained silent for a while.

"What about getting married? Your dress is starting to look cramped" said Alric.

Mary took a deep breath, then spoke in a very small voice.

"I'll consider it ...."

"What?" Alric turned his head quickly, afraid his ears were mishearing.

"If you don't listen, you already do!" mary said as she got up and left Alric.

Alric paused for a moment while smiling widely. Then he called his mother immediately.

"Mom, man,"

"What's wrong? It's night, why haven't you slept."

"Mom .. Mary just said she'd consider it."

"What's!? You serious!?"

"Yes, Mom...."

"God ... I have to go back to the Lion mansion."

Alric frowned at the strange words of his mother.

"Why?"

"Why did you say!? Of course get rid of all my traces there. Move all the servants to our other mansion. Then recruit a new servant. Let Chief Gray be all that's left. That's where you'll take Mary later."

"Mom .. he hasn't said yes,"

"Your job is to get him to agree immediately!"

"Allah ... Fine ...." Then Alric turned off his phone. Feel relieved and very happy.

Claude and Catalina who had just finished dancing a while later came to Alric's sofa.

"Where's Mary?" ask Catalina.

"Look, he went to the little food table" Alric replied.

He patted Calude's thigh as the man sat down next to her.

"Hey .. thanks for inviting me," she said happily.

Claude raised an eyebrow while pulling Catalina to sit next to him.

"You look happy. Thank goodness you like the party."

"Yes. Your party was a success, very very, very" Alric said with a big smile.

**********

"Are you not tired?" ask Vincent.

"Oh, what, Vince?" ask Joanna . He had just finished a glass of mineral water. Thirsty after dancing non-stop with Robert, Simon and Hamilton.

"No. I'm not tired. I feel happy."

Vincent squinted at Joanna. He refrains from seeing Joanna dancing with Robert. Twice.

"And what makes you so happy? That guy?"

Joanna raises her eyebrows, then turns to face Vincent.

"That guy has a name, Vince. Robert."

Vincent just stared flat as he sipped his drink.

"And he's taking me away tomorrow."

"Where?"

"Search rings ... I think Atemis Jewelry is worth a visit, right, can order with the design as you wish."

Vincent's jaw twitches.

"He's gonna propose to you?"

"Haha . I hope so. I want to be a mother. As soon as I get married then I can sleep with her," Yoana replied with a big smile and winked. Then he left Vincent with his heart pounding because he had just uttered that provocative word.

Vincent's hand was clenched tightly. His eyes glittered with his jaw hardened. Suddenly the shadow that formed in her head when Yoana said the word sleep with Robert made her heart rebel, her brain in constant protest told her to do something. His heart does not receive, even in shadow. Especially in reality ....

Vincent picked up the phone from inside his pants pocket and called someone. After the answer was heard, he conveyed his meaning.

"You have one heli ready for me tomorrow. I'll call you back at what time I need it." I hear an answer from across the street, and Vincent turns off the phone. Looked at Yoana with determination.
