I'm Not a Cheap Woman

Zionel's Promise

Sorry to the previous readers, due to the lack of Author knowledge, so Author does not know if the name Zio previously meant an organization. To avoid further unwanted things, Author has revised and renamed Zio to Zionel Cruise starting from the initial episode, but there is no need to worry and worry because the story will remain the same as before.

The Happy Reading All...

*****

Zionel was very upset that the presence of another man made Stevani very angry and sad. He and Alex are still standing with Angga. Zionel and Angga looked the same as wanting to eat each other.

Alex let out a long sigh then stood in the middle of them. "I don't know what happened between you, but don't you remember if this is a hospital. Not only is Miss Stevani a patient here, there are still hundreds of other patients who need peace" he said.

"I don't want to look for a commotion here, sir, but the man beside you claims to be the future husband of a woman I've always liked. Is it because he has a lot of money that he can do anything at will?" angga said annoyedly.

Alex was shocked and looked at Zionel questioningly. Zionel smiled his smile full of confidence.

"And that's the truth, it's none of my business that you've liked it for a long time. Stop expecting the impossible." - Zionel.

"You...!!!"

"Have stopped...!" snapped Alex. "I remember you're a Golden club bartender, you're probably a friend of Miss Stevani's. Not that I want to defend my superiors, but their business let them decide. You better go now, don't make trouble anymore" he added.

"I'll make sure Stevani won't accept you as her husband. You are a very arrogant man." chirped Angga while leaving them in anger.

Alex let out a long sigh again, and he looked at Zionel for an explanation.

"I will follow your advice before" Zionel said.

"Saranku's? Which advice is Zio?"

"You still remember, at that time you had advised this woman to avoid a blind date that was always arranged by mommy. So I'll do it."

"Wait.wait, as I recall before I said it, you've rejected it out loud. How do you know I would suggest this to you?"

Zionel pulled the corner of his lips to mock Alex. "Which of your thoughts do not read by me Lex. I refused before because I had not been involved with this woman. Now that I can't avoid it anymore, only in this way will I take responsibility for what I did to her. But I just asked him to do the marriage on the covenant."

"Haaaaahhh... You mean marriage contract?"

"Diminish your voice Lex." snapped Zionel. "I don't know how to tell him about last night. Only in this way am I responsible." he added.

"You can't take advantage of Miss Stevani's situation like this. Tell the truth if you are the one sleeping with her and make her lose her chastity. This way, you can only find out what the woman wants Mr. Zio." said Alex.

"No. I was afraid of being chased away by him and I was afraid he told me to forget about it. Cruise did not accept rejection. And what if she's pregnant with my son right now. It was Cruise's descendant. I won't let him take my son." Zionel thought.

"Sir Zio, you should also think about the Cruise family. Previously I did suggest you use it to escape from the matchmaking of President. But just a show. This time you want to marry her on the grounds of responsibility, I think you are in big trouble Mr. Zio." continued Alex.

"This thing let me take care of Lex. I just want that woman to be by my side for a year" Zionel replied.

"You don't think about pregnancy anymore, do you? Your relationship is only one time, it's likely only 50%."

"80% because of that night..."

Zionel recalls his hot night with Stevani. If you remember again, they do it not just once. Stevani's every move on the bed made him wake up and do it again. He clearly remembered that he had done so many times with the woman.

"Oh my God, for the first time a Cruise slept with a woman without control. I think it's 80% even 100% if you're really healthy, but this time I really don't want to interfere Mr. Zio."

Zionel. "I'm really healthy, Lex, that woman should be around me. If we were married, even if he finally remembered everything, he could not have run away again. And I'm not gonna let him run away Cruise's offspring."

What Alex said was true, why he didn't think about Stevani at all. The contract marriage he offered the woman was just because of a sense of responsibility or the issue of Cruise's descent or something else he had not thought of.

But clearly Zionel's desire to get Stevani by his side grew even bigger even though he did not know what he was really thinking at the moment. Zionel let out a long sigh and then looked back at Alex.

"That's my business, Lex. You just need to support whatever my decision is." Zionel said as he walked into the room again leaving Alex just like that.

Ms. Yoyoh was cleaning the room, Stevani was already asleep there. Zionel could only stare at her from a distance because he did not want to disturb the woman's rest. Bu Yoyoh stopped his work after seeing Zionel enter the room again.

"Master.neng Vani just went to bed" said Ms. Yoyoh.

Zionel nodded his head. "Let her rest mom."

Bu Yoyoh approached Zionel. "Can you talk for a minute?"

"Of course, ma'am."

"But not here, let's just get out." pinta ma'am Yoyoh.

"Oh well. come on.." ask Zionel.

The two of them came out of the room, Alex looking at them.

"What's wrong?" ask Alex.

"We'll talk to Lex for a while, just stay here to look after him" Zionel replied.

"Okay, okay." Alex replied.

Zionel took Yoyoh's mother a little away from the room. They were looking for a seat somewhere else to talk. After the two began to sit quietly, Ms. Yoyoh began her conversation.

"Master..not the intention of mother meddling neng Vani's problem. But Ms. Yoyoh has known Ms. Vani since she was 10 years old. Bu Yoyoh knows the difficulties of Vani since childhood. He was orphaned because both of his parents were in an accident. From then on, Neng Vani lived alone, earning money to eat in various places."

"Wait mom? Why is he living alone? Doesn't he have a sister who just had surgery?" ask Zionel.

"The story is long sir, mother has no right to tell about Neng Zaline. Just let Neng Vani tell the master later."

"Alright. continue ma'am." Zionel's request.

"At that time the mother was really in trouble, let alone help neng Vani, to eat the mother's family was difficult. So I can only see Neng Vani working hard alone to live." continued Yoyoh sad mom. "Neng Vani is always in trouble until he ends up in a nightclub, but mom Yoyoh knows that Vani is still a good woman. During her time working there, she never saw her come home drunk or with a striped man. Neng Vani is trying to die trying to make money for Zaline's treatment, but he will also keep himself for his sister's sake. So mom Yoyoh's intention is to say this..."

Did Stevani tell you about my request to get married?" ask Zionel.

Bu Yoyoh nodded his head.

"Mom don't worry, I'm not the bad guy who's gonna torture her. I promise to make her happy" Zionel said.

"Damn it.. What am I promising? Why did I suddenly say this to Miss Yoyoh?" think Zionel.
