Elizabeth stared softly as she rubbed Jessica's cheeks and Rafael took turns.
“You have no idea how happy I am to hear this news. Thanks Jessica. Thanks!”elizabeth said with tears
“Grandma why? No crying! I beg”pap Jessica panicked to see Elizabeth who suddenly cried
Jessica hugged Elizabeth to calm her down.
“Already yes grandma, don't cry! You made me go awry” said Jessica while rubbing Elizabeth's back
Elizabeth hugged Jessica with a very happy heart. Elizabeth also looked at Rafael with a smile.
Arthur who saw the wife even as he pleased after hearing the news brought Arga and Catherine immediately approached him.
“Why are you crying baby? Look at! You make the mood sad. Shouldn't we be happy to hear this news?”ask Arthur
Elizabeth wiped her tears and smiled.
“Come we sit!”take Elizabeth
Elizabeth pulls out Rafael and Jessica's hands to sit nearby.
“Say when are your plans?”ask Elizabeth
“What plan nek?”jessica asked confusedly
“Tactual brother. When are you going to formalize your engagement?”ask Anna
Jessica was misbehaved with questions about an engagement plan that had never been on her mind.
“How is this?”jessica murmured in her heart
“No need to rush. Amanda and Victor just got married. Let's just postpone this engagement plan”ucap Rafael
“I think faster is better. Didn't they? Madam agrees with my opinion?”hanna asked Elizabeth
“Iya.I agree once. Why should it be postponed? If you need tomorrow her engagement”ucap Elizabeth
“No!”
“Do not!”
Rafael and Jessica screamed almost simultaneously. Both are directly in sight.
“Ehem”
Rafael thundered loudly to distract.
“You guys why? Isn't the sooner you get engaged the better? Or do you want to be like Amanda and Victor? Directly married?”ask Elizabeth
“No!”
Shouted Jessica and Rafael together.
“How do I say it? It's all because of Rafael's ridiculous idea. Getting me caught up in this weird problem like this” grumbled Jessica inwardly as she stared intently at Rafael.
“Stop looking at me like that! I'm also trying to save us both”Rafael whispered to Jessica
“It's all your fault”whispered Jessica to Rafael
Elizabeth and Hanna are busy discussing their engagement plans. Assisted by Anna and Joanne. Arthur talks to Jerry. Arga and Catherine chose to step down from the table to greet the owners of the event today, Amanda and Victor. Only Albert continued to look at the girl he liked with a look of disappointment.
Albert did not expect, Jessica's decision to stay in Paris to calm down actually made the girl meet with Rafael. His competition. Both will soon be engaged. Albert's heart was filled with sorrow and disappointment. Albert is disappointed because Jessica who once refused his love is now dating a playboy man. Albert is disappointed Jessica actually accepts Rafael and not him.
Feeling that he was not considered in the conversation of two families, Albert chose to leave the table of the two families. Joanne, who saw the man she liked leave, only dared to look at him without daring to approach him. In fact, he had been rejected by that man. He might dare to approach that man.
“You why?”alvaro asked the cousin.
“It's none of your business”sahut Joanne while stepping away in the opposite direction to Albert's departure
Alvaro, who could capture the look of sadness on Joanne's face, immediately ran after the beautiful girl.
Meanwhile, Jessica and Rafael continue to try to persuade her family to undo their engagement plans. For not proposing to her, Rafael never expressed his feelings for Jessica. Maybe she wants to get engaged to that handsome guy. Although the butterfly in his heart seemed to fall after hearing Rafael asked him to JUST listen to himself. JUST follow his words. All that Rafael said, Jessica captured as a form of jealousy the man had on her. But Jessica, who does not want to be heartbroken because she misinterpreted all the words and attitudes of Rafael, chose to stay away. Jessica was afraid of having too much hope for Rafael.
“Next week alone their engagement the two”ucap Elizabeth
“Alright! I agree!”hanna Sahut
“How dear? You don't mind, do you?”ask Elizabeth to Arthur
“As far as you are! You know better how good it is, replied Arthur
“How about you, Mr Jerry? You agree right?”ask Elizabeth
Jerry looked at the princess's face. Still imagined in his mind when the princess was overwhelmed with sadness due to the failure of her marriage with Arga.
“I agree, if Jessica also agrees. How dear? Do you agree to be engaged to Rafael next week? Just say! Fear not! Papa will support whatever your decision”ucap Jerry
“I..”
“How is this? What do I have to answer? God help me!”jessica murmured in her heart
“Let me and Jessica talk about this both”pinta Rafael
“You proposed to my daughter, didn't you?”ask Jerry to make sure
“It..indeed true!”answer Rafael
“What! Why would he lie again. Aahhhh.my head feels like it wants to just explode”grutu Jessica in heart
Because instead of solving the problems between them, Rafael just add to the other lies. It is true people say. If we lie once, then we will lie second, third and so on to cover up the lies we have made.
Jessica sighed softly trying to muster up her courage to reveal the truth.
“Papa, mom, master Arthur and grandma Eliz, actually me and Rafael.”
Rafael immediately panicked as soon as he heard Jessica who seemed to be telling the truth. Without a second thought Rafael immediately pulled Jessica's hand.
“Allow me and Jessica to talk about this problem for a while”ink Rafael while pulling Jessica's hand
“Hei..Where did you take me? I'm not done yet. I have to tell you the truth”ucap Jessica who was taken away by Rafael
Rafael continues to take Jessica to a place that feels safe. Once he got to a place that felt safe, Rafael let go of his grasp.
“Why did you bring me here?”ask Jessica
“You'll tell the truth, won't you?”ask Rafael
“Of course. This engagement cannot happen. It's just your lie because you're jealous of brother Arga. I don't want everyone to misunderstand me.” Jessica replied
“You think if you tell me the truth, they won't be disappointed? Moreover, the great madam was so happy to hear the news. Do you break his heart? Not to mention the big master had a history of heart disease. Do you think your honesty won't affect her heart?”rafael asked with a stir
“Then you want me how? I'm confused too. It's all your fault! I hate you!”jessica exclaimed with tears while hitting the chest of Rafael's field
Rafael resignedly was hit by Jessica who beat his chest with all her might. Jessica was really upset and confused about how to deal with the Miller family and his family. He did not expect the lie Rafael increasingly dragged himself into a bigger problem. Jessica didn't want to disappoint anyone. He just wanted to tell the truth. But apparently there is something else to consider.
Jessica's punch got weaker and longer but her tears kept dripping. Wetting cheeks. Rafael slowly hugged the pretty girl's tiny body to calm her down.
“Sorry. I know it's my fault that we've been trapped like this. No crying! I'll try to find a way out!”said Rafael while rubbing Jessica's back gently
