~Amarily~

I didn't know what was going on in the room so Edrick and Theo were flabbergasted. As my husband's attention was being distracted, I let go of his handrails and approached the door that was still wide open. As soon as I saw the incident in it, I regretted it.

My hand was pulled and I was led into a room. Before I could digest what was happening, the door was locked and my body was pushed over to cover it. The fragrance that entered my olfactory was not Theo's, so I raised my face and met another man's gaze.

I hate, hate it so much whenever I misjudge people. What I don't like the most, is that Theo is right. Bastian looked at me with admiration. His hand caressed my cheek, disgusting me. Liars do not know themselves to be taught a lesson.

He had already reported his own cousin, used me and Theo to ruin Nisa's relationship with Edrick, then he dared to touch me. Did he think after seeing everyone who went crazy with someone who wasn't his partner earlier made me interested in doing so?

“Arghh!!” He grimaced stifled as I held the hand that was on my cheek and bent it. I hope he has a broken bone.

“I believe you, but here's your reply.” I bend his fingers more and more.

“Cu-enough,”. Oh gosh. What is this weak man trying to lock me up here for? I think he's a tough opponent.

“I appreciate you as a friend. What do you want to do to me in this room? Answer!” I gripped her cheek with my right hand.

“Kat ...” He looked at me with his eyes clear.

Whahuh? He know about that? It must be Nisa who told him that or he slipped. Stupid woman. Can't he keep a secret well? Seeing her having trouble speaking, I loosened my grip on her right hand.

He sighed in relief. “You should know I never stop loving you, Katelia. I was so happy when I found out you were now in this body.”

I laughed in surprise. “You're happy I'm in this body. Sure oes. After I'm not fat and ugly anymore, ‘ right? Don't talk love. Your dirty mouth is not worth calling it. Instead of helping your cousin, you let him fall further into this dark world.”

“He deserves to be devastated after the humiliation he did to me.” His fiery eyes turned soft. “Kat, be mine. I can make you happy more than him. The man is very cold to you, but I .. I will make you like a queen every time.”

“Your cousin you just wasted. How can you treat me like a queen? Me, a stranger you don't know at all,” my challenge.

“No I know?” He spread his left hand. “See around you well.”

I looked at the wall in front of me. My eyes were round looking at a large painting there. Then there are a lot of picture frames on all the walls, on the sideboard, the nightstand, and the table. Everything is a picture of Katelya as alive and Amarylis who has turned beautiful. This guy is crazy.

“Amarily! The darling? What are you inside?” There was a scream followed by a knock on the door.

“I think you are my friend. Turns out you're just as rotten as Nisa.” I suddenly let go of her hand so that she would feel pain.

“I don't give my body to anyone like him. I'm waiting for you patiently, Kat. Why do you continue to be with a man whose family will never accept you to be their daughter-in-law? You better leave her and marry me!”

Since he didn't stop talking, I kicked the part between his thighs. His face turned blue and he knelt on the floor. Finally, he was silent as well. Just heard him endure the pain.

“Praying.” I'm holding the key to the doorknob. “May Theo not ruin your face, your precious asset as a model.” I turned the key and Theo opened the door immediately.

He looked towards the room and met a glance with Bastian who was looking at him wryly. He looked at me and watched me for a moment. Without speaking again, he approached Bastian, but was obstructed by his bodyguards. Those who took over beat up the guy.

The first hit landed on his face. I smiled with satisfaction to see it. Theo took me and Edrick out of the house. Everyone we passed by didn't care about us at all. They are busy with their own world.

Edrick's car stopped not far from the gate. Seeing him come out, we did the same. Then we understood what happened when we heard the sound of the siren approaching. The police came from the opposite direction towards the house.

“What do you believe in this?” ask Theo.

“This is the only way that he will never repeat it again.” He took a long breath. Ooo. He's the one who called the police. Sadistic too. I didn't think that far. Just want their relationship to break up and Nisa's heartbroken.

That night, we did not discuss the incident, but were both unable to sleep. I'm sure Theo couldn't get the incident he witnessed out of his head either. I can still accept if she sleeps with a man who is not her boyfriend, fiance, or husband. But what Nisa did was more terrible. He shares his body with two men at once.

Edrick didn't cry in front of us, but I'm sure he was feeling sorry for being alone in his room. The poor guy. She was so happy when she told her intention to get Nisa married at the end of this year. His heart must be very broken now.

News of police raiding a sex party in a suburban restaurant went viral in every online medium. Nisa's unexpected photo is a concern, as she is Edrick's fiance. The man doesn't seem to care if his name gets carried away. The news was not banned from publication.

On Theo's birthday, I had a small celebration in the room. I woke him up with a piece of cake with a candle burning on it. He blew the candle out and gave me a good morning kiss.

Unfortunately, he was going overtime, so we couldn't have dinner together. But on his advice, I ate with Sonata. It's a nice entertainment, because I also made a video call with Meghan so we could have a chat with the three of us. They're just my best friends.

“Ya, already. You guys can have fun tonight at home,” Meghan said, advising. “Lang that year was just days. You don't have to be disappointed all day.”

“I've said the same thing, he's still pouting,” on Sonata. I sneered.

“I'm sorry. I have to get ready for work,” Meghan said.

“Ah, wait. You must listen to this so that your day is more excited,” I said mysteriously. They both looked at me impatiently. I took out my first ultrasound photo and showed it to them. “I'm pregnant. Two more days he's exactly fourteen weeks.”

They were both stunned for a moment. The first Sonata cheered and took the photo from my hand. “Oh, Amaryllis! I'm so happy to hear that! Congratulations, yes!”

They're scrambling to talk until I don't know who to listen to. After congratulating her and promising to call again, Meghan ended our video call. Sonata and I continued our conversation. He really wished my son was a boy, but I didn't want to. I want my first child to be a girl.

“I think I misheard.” A man's voice came from behind me. “It turns out you're here, Amarylis.”

“Oh! Hi, Edrick!” I stood up and stretched out my hand, but she came closer to hug and kiss my cheek. “You've never done this before.” I looked at him in wonder.

“I don't want your husband killed.” He blinked one eye. “I have long wanted to hug you cute. Short-bodied women are my weakness.”

“I'm glad to see you happy. I thought you would lock yourself in the house and—” I said, teasing him. I had to stop seeing him put his index finger in front of his lips.

“We forget that embarrassing incident. I don't want everyone here to realize that I'm the one who's being the hot news.” He glanced around us and looked at Sonata. “Who is this midget? Your friend?”

“Bebol, you say?” sonata was offended. He stands. “Heh, look carefully! I'm taller than Amarilis. It's good to call me a midget.”

“You're a midget because it's much shorter than me.” Edrick puffed his chest.

I laughed at the behavior of both of them. “You came alone? Just sit here with us. I'm the dealership. Today there is a special celebration.” I picked up my bag that was on the empty seat by my side. He nodded in agreement.

“Wow.” He took a picture of the USG on the table. “You pregnant?” I nodded happily. “Then I will treat you, cute and midget women.”

“I'm not a midget!” sonata Protest.

I introduced the two of them so that we could have a free chat. They did not stop arguing about Sonata's height. Their argument gave me an idea. Also true. They are both the children of the people, so they are equal. The first impression is already familiar like this, they can certainly be a matching couple.

Edrick can soon forget Nisa and her betrayal, and Sonata is a good woman who always keeps her reputation and hardworking. They are both children from wealthy families, but do not appear excessive let alone show off their parents' property. Whoa! I can also be a Matchmaker.

We were ready to go home at ten. Edrick kept his promise by paying our bills. A real man. I smiled meaningfully at Sonata, but she squinted her eyes at me. What's the harm? Edrick was very good.

I deliberately positioned myself by letting the man walk between us. They again argue about height. I just laughed a little. The happy atmosphere was broken instantly while we were on the terrace. Journalists shower me with questions.

Edrick and Sonata helped protect me from their relationship. What do they mean by me cheating? What do they mean by proof?
