Forced to Marry a Cruel Young Master

Chapter 28: Like Cinderella

Who would have thought he would fall in love?

Today exactly three months Isvara is in the residence of the entrepreneur, every day he will not be absent to cross the calendar on that date.

Isvara had promised herself that, after she had escaped all these entanglements, she would start a new life with her father, away from conflict, away from this family.

But will it all happen? When the demon king who always tortured him and made him moons actually turned to fall in love with him?

In the room, Gerald looked restless, the man had been pacing around since, biting his fingernails, worried about his own feelings.

"May I fall in love with her?"

"It looks like Ryan's diagnosis was wrong! Yeah right, how could I fall in love with a girl as ugly as Isvara!"

Gerald turned his body to face the mirror. "Yes right, you-" Gerald pointed to his own reflection in the mirror.

"The celestial gerald is self-centered, you're handsome, athletic, and wealthy, where perhaps the perfect prince like you fell in love with a commoner girl like her," Gerald continued raving to himself.

Until he didn't realize anyone was watching him behind the door.

The girl cleared her throat, making Gerald peek for a moment, and then the man allowed a backward glance.

"You!" Gerald widened his eyes, surprised.

"I'm sorry, papa called you to come down" Isvara said, looking calm.

"Why don't you knock first huh! You don't know if getting into someone's room is rude!" Jerked Gerald, but his face seemed to hold in shame.

"Had he heard everything I said?"

"How can I knock first while your door is wide open?"

That's right. The door since it wasn't closed was wide open. So who's wrong here?

"But you still have to get permission before you go in!" Gerald won't lose.

Isvara was breathing out. "All right, I'm sorry."

Justjust like? why does it sound like the girl is not sincere?

"Well, you go, I'll be down in a minute" said Gerald.

Isvara nodded and left. Gerald turned back by covering half his face with his hands.

"Damn it, what's wrong with you Gerald?" rutuknya, because now his face seems to heat up and redden.

***

Gerald descended in casual clothes towards the extended family sitting relaxing in the living room.

"Papa looking for me?" gerald said after sitting next to Aryaloka.

"Look, the day after tomorrow, Mama will go to New York to develop a project that is there as well as visiting old colleagues. Later grandma and Kayra will also come because there is important business there too."

"So papa will give up the business of the company that is here with you as long as papa does not exist."

Gerald nodded. "Good reward."

"Oh yeah, also next week is the birthday of your colleague friend papa, can you come to replace papa's presence there?"

"It can be reward."

Aryaloka smiled. "Okay, oh yeah, you can also invite Isvara to be your partner."

Gerald was stunned for a while, then glanced at Isvara who was standing across, then nodded resignedly, but a sharp look he gave to Isvara.

While Isvara was staring at a strange, astounding coincidence, the man did not protest at all.

Gerald's been pretty weird lately, what's up with that guy?

****

Time passed, the day of departure of Mr. Aryaloka, Madame Indira, mistress Triani and Kayra has been set at noon.

Now they are on the terrace to say goodbye because soon the car is ready.

"Until when are you there?" ask Gerald.

"Uncertain, maybe up to a month or two months, papa handed over the security of this house completely to you" said the papah patted Gerald on the shoulder.

Gerald nodded. "Good, pah."

"This is the key to this house, grandma will hand it to you," said Triani put the key in Isvara's palm.

"But Grandma, Vara can't seem to .." said Isvara.

"Why?" grandma caught a restless look in Isvara's eyes.

Isvara glanced at Madame Arini who seemed to want to skin her alive.

"There ... Aunt Arini's entitled to take responsibility for this house."

Mrs Triani was aware of Isvara's uneasiness.

"Not to worry, Arini understands that you are the most deserving of this, you and Gerald are the perfect couple to keep this house as long as grandma is not around."

Gerald who was talking to his father also replied. "That's right, no one deserves more to take on this responsibility than you."

Madam Triani smiled. "Look, Gerald just agrees with Grandma."

Isvara stared at the key in her grasp and then looked at the grandmother. "Alright," the girl nodded.

While the lady Arini stared dislike him, why did her mother even give the responsibility to the smelly girl like Isvara and not to him? he's very upset.

"Review you're Isvara!" muttered.

The farewell event ended, Mr. Aryaloka and Mrs Indira got into the car first, then followed by Mrs Triani and Kayra, before entering Kayra smiled at Isvara.

Isvara knew what that smile meant, and last night Kayra left her a letter to give to Raka.

After the car disappeared from view, Gerald turned to Isvara, stared for a while then turned his face away after realizing Isvara was also staring at him.

"You want to go now, son?" ask Miss Arini.

Gerald nodded. "Yes Tan."

Gerald said goodbye to Arini and Brinda, then walked to the car with Mr. Tian.

After Gerald's departure, the look on Madame Arini's face immediately changed.

"Give it!" his jolt immediately took the key that was in Isvara's hands.

"People like you don't want to take control of this house" said Ms. Arini sharply.

Isvara sighed. "It's up to aunty, but I don't want to take responsibility if anything happens in this house."

"You want to teach me, huh?!" said madam Arini glaring.

"No, it's just that grandma gave me her mandate."

"Heh, know yourself to be a person," Brinda grazed, "Lo's hitchhiking free here, watch your behavior!"

"I know, but I'm just warning you" Isvara said patiently.

"Aww ... " Brinda suddenly pulled her hair.

"Lo diemin even more mengeelunjak ya it turns out!"

Isvara grimaced more and more, her hair seemed to want to be dislodged.

"Lo who is the emang, just a village girl who happens to be picked up by Arya," said Brinda in a sharp tone.

Brinda had been looking forward to when she cursed Isvara, she had held him back and it was time.

"Brinda already, don't spoil your mood just because of the maid," said Ms. Arini.

Brinda let go of the check. " My mother was right." swerved towards Isvara.

"Most importantly, we have the keys to this house." Madame Arini showed the key in her hand.

"We can be free to do anything now" he said, smiling broadly.

Brinda laughs. "Now we are free to torture this village when will we ma?"

"Of course, honey, we're free to do it."

Then the mother and son laughed, while Isvara grimaced at the torture she would be through.

It seemed like his decision to persist all this time, had already begun to regret.

Would her life be like Cinderella in a fairy tale, suffering from the bullying of her stepmother and stepbrother?
