Love Comes After Marriage

Immediately in the marriage contract, Devan only needs one breath he has managed to say the phrase qabul. And the witnesses say 'sah'. Bella is now officially the mistress of Devan Alandra, a successful young CEO.

The boisterous sound of applause accompanied the happiness of the newlyweds, but who knows, if the bride did the wedding with a veiled intention.

Bella looked down sadly, not feeling her tears flowing back down her cheeks. Devan glanced at what Bella was doing. Devan gripped Bella's hand under the table.

"Stop crying, or you'll see your uncle's head cut right now. Show everyone that we are happy brides." Threaten Devan in a whisper.

Hearing that, Bella immediately wiped away the tears on her cheeks. He lifted his face, then tried to smile as sweetly as possible. While right behind them, the uncle hears Devan's threat to Bella.

'Bella forgive uncle. Brother Bram forgive me, I failed to keep your daughter, uncle's inner pain.

After the prayer reading is complete, now the two brides are asked to go up to the pelaminan that has been decorated very beautifully. While the invited guests, now enjoying the menu of dishes that have been provided.

On top of the guarantee, Bella tried to smile to greet the guests who were present that day. Looks very beautiful with a smile that adorns her sweet lips, even if only a forced smile. Devan is also very handsome and dashing with a luxurious coat on his body.

"Congratulations on your marriage" said a middle-aged man.

"Papa?" Devan was surprised that the father was there.

"You didn't tell papa your happy day? You forgot papa?" ask the father with teary eyes.

"Papa, I don't mean to forget papa. The show was too sudden, I was planning to tell papa after this" Devan said.

"You don't want papa to be there on your happy day?" ask papa again.

"Papa, please understand, I'll explain everything to you later. For now, join the others first" Devan said.

"Hem, okay."

Finally, Alan's father relented, the middle-aged man immediately got off the leash.

Papa Alan is also a businessman like Devan, but his company he passed on to Devan. Devan initially refused, because he already had his own company. But out of pity to see the father who had to lead the company in the age of twilight, Devan accepted the company, and finally Devan now leads two large companies at once although different fields.

Reception is held until 9 p.m. Bella's legs felt very sore because they stood too long, wanted to ask permission to the room first but she did not have the courage.

Now there are only uncles, aunts, Aleas and papa devans left. Bella escorted the uncle's family to the main door, before returning to continue her steps, the uncle hugged Bella and gave her encouragement.

"Bella take good care of yourself, son, obey your husband even if it's hard. Be a good wife to her, take her heart until she falls. Uncle will always pray the best for you, uncle sure someday you will be happy," said the uncle while releasing their embrace.

Bella just nodded in response, she knew her day would change from now on. He had to be stronger than before, regardless of what kind of circumstances he would go through after this. Will he be able to get through this suffering? I don't know, Bella's not sure about herself. Bella let out a long sigh staring at the departure of uncle's car.

"What else are you doing outside? Go back to your room now!" devan's orders coldly then passed away.

"Bright sir."

Bella immediately stepped her feet towards her room on the second floor.

While in another room, precisely in the workspace Devan. Now Devan has sat opposite the father who is ready to demand an explanation from his son. Devan loosened the tie that felt like it was strangling his neck, then sighed softly before finally starting to tell everything.

"Well, are you ready to explain everything that happened to papa?" ask dad Alan.

"Before Devan apologized pa, Devan was forced to do this all. Devan had no other choice, but Devan had to."

"Then you took it for granted?"

"I want to accept it because I have the advantage, otherwise I won't. I also want to teach that woman a lesson" Devan said.

"What do you mean?" Papa frowned confusedly.

"According to information from Jo, the woman is very arrogant and crazy treasure!"

"How is it possible? From what you can see, she is a good woman. Looking at her eyes, she was not that kind of woman, maybe Jo was misinformed. Treat your wife well Dev, or you'll regret it later" said papa.

"All women are the same, they just want my treasure. Women today only want fame and power!" argue Devan stays with his thoughts.

"Not all women are like that Dev, you can't judge that all women are the same. There are some who have a sincere heart."

"Well you tell me, which woman has that in her heart? Papa's wife only wants property, even mom is the same. Mama left us when I was a kid, even when I needed her the most." Devan recalls his past, where his mother left him first.

"Don't judge that all women are the same Dev, maybe all this time the women you meet are women of the same kind. But your wife is different, before you regret it, treat your wife well. Understand his character and try to love him" papa recalled before finally leaving Devan's study.

Devan returned to his room still thinking about his father's words, when he arrived in the room he felt very angry because he did not find Bella in it. Devan does not want this contract marriage to leak to his immediate family, he wants to avoid arranged marriages made by his family. Devan walks into Bella's room with his angry face, I don't know what Bella's fault really is.

Devan opens the door to Bella's room violently, leaving the owner shocked. Seeing her husband's unfriendly face made Bella even more afraid, but ventured to ask.

"Sorry sir, can I help you?" ask Bella.

"Pack your things and move to my room right now!" devan's orders were firm.

"But sir-"

"It's orders! You have no right to argue! Do it now or you'll see your uncle's body this second." Threat Devan.

The threat was the most merciful thing to threaten Bella, because the woman immediately got up packing her things.

Before entering her husband's room, Bella knocks on the door first, after getting an answer then Bella enters.

"Sorry sir, where can I keep my things?" ask Bella carefully.

"In the walk in closet there is an empty closet, you just put it there." replied Devan without looking at it one bit.

Bella walks in the direction pointed by Devan, and immediately tidies her things there. After finishing Bella decided to change her clothes because she was already very sleepy.

"Sorry sir, where will I sleep?" bella asked again, she was very careful with her actions.

"Are you blind? Is there only one bed? So where should you sleep? I don't want to see any bad news about me later."

'So, what does it mean that I should sleep in one bed with him? It might be.'

Bella got on the bed carefully, afraid that she would make a mistake. But apparently, Devan was just silent when he found out he climbed into the bed. Bella was not misrepresented.

'God leave me strength tomorrow to continue my life, and open my husband's heart to accept me.'
