Love Does Not Come Too Late

Take and Give

"Leaa," Beni tried to get close to Lea.

"GO!!!" Lea grew hysterical, closing her ears and eyes as Beni tried to approach her.

"Mamaa Mauraaaaa ..." William cried with fear, hugging Leah tighter and tighter.

Devi wanted to take Maura from Alexander's sling, but lost quickly to Raymond who had it first.

"Finely Father and Mother go home first, the current situation is not possible," throw out Raymond still trying a little polite.

"Sir Raymond---"

"I BEG SIR!, ... I will go home later, I will tell you next." Raymond extended his hand towards the exit.

"I'm sorry, .. I'm waiting for the good news. I hope you understand Lea" said Beni slowly.

...🔹️...

"Drink." Raymond thrusts a glass of orange ice at Lea.

"I still can't figure out what happened?" Raymond sat down before Leah, looking at her intently.

"I'm sorry, I've been troublesome and make a scene at the house Mr. .. I say go home first." Leah put down the glass and was about to get up.

"Sit down!!" raymond exclaimed, his face had already begun to harden.

"You're making a fuss in my house, at least don't make me like a fool who doesn't know anything."

"Maura is your son with Mr. Beni?" continued Raymond. Lea just nodded little there was no intention to explain.

"You wife ... second or ...." Lea shook her head quickly, her sitting was already uneasy.

Seeing that Raymond changed his question, because feeling what he asked made Lea uncomfortable.

"What's your next plan?, I'm not sure they'll just shut up. Bu Devi really wanted Maura. Your position is weak Lea, you're a single parent with minimal income while Maura's biological father lives abundantly. If they demand custody of Maura .. you lose," explained Raymond.

"Mr... Can you help me?" lea asked expectantly.

"What can I help you with" said Raymond softly. His heart grew this new he felt needed by Lea.

"Mr can you raise my salary?" Lea's great-grandson hesitated. Raymond's eyes narrowed, and the wide smile on his face receded at once upon hearing Lea's request far from his expectations.

"At least if I can give Maura a decent life, Mr. Beni will not pressure me," Lea continued excitedly.

"I'm sorry, if that's not possible." Raymond snorted in annoyance. Lea's shoulders were again disappointed.

"Who are you going to call?" raymond asked suspiciously to see Lea typing something on her phone.

"Sister Erik." Lea raised her face at a glance, then refocused on the phone.

Hearing Erik's name called Raymond's chest heated up, "What can your ex-husband do, indeed" Raymond said.

Since the first meeting with Erik when driving Maura home, Raymond was already upset with the man because he was accused of being a player.

"It should have been yesterday that I did not take a decision too soon to part," Lea said.

"So now you're sorry?" sahut Raymond's cynical.

"Maybe ..." said Lea lirih. Raymond widened his eyes, his brain spinning rapidly.

It is certain Erik agrees if Lea asks for a referral.

"I have an offer" Raymond said quickly.

"View ...." Raymond pointed towards the back garden. William and Maura were playing accompanied by Mbok Nah, the two boys seemed to have forgotten the commotion that had just happened.

"If you want to keep Maura, you need a complete guarantee of both parents. William, need Maura." Raymond glanced at Lea wanting to know her reaction.

Lea was still speechless without any overreaction still waiting for a follow-up sentence from Raymond.

"What if we complement each other?" continued Raymond. Lea still did not understand, she simply frowned deeply.

His brain was hard to think because of the incident earlier.

Raymond breathed an annoyed sigh, "We're married, "Raymond said quickly.

His face was already flushed with embarrassment.

Lea's mouth was wide open, a second later she came to her senses and would reply with a sentence of rejection.

Raymond, seeing the response from Lea, before the words were spoken from the woman's mouth, he immediately cut off, "For the sake of children." His gaze was deliberately directed towards the back garden as if observing William and Maura with a haru look.

Leah followed Raymond's gaze, and she saw Maura very comfortable with William. Raymond's son was very happy and looked mature looking after Maura.

"But ...."

"Or maybe you really want to re-refer to your ex-husband, yes .. that is your right." Raymond shrugged his shoulders not caring.

"Hehhee .. you haven't had a divorce in half a year, now you're the one who asked for a referral." Raymond laughed at Lea to knock her mentally down.

Married?, with this spicy mouth guy? Marriage was not for playfulness, it was enough to have married without any preparation and feelings with Erik just yet, and finally ended in failure.

If you go back with Erik, it's true Raymond said he wanted to put where this face is.

Should he take advantage of Erik's feelings once again?, then what about Ghea?

There is no better choice.

Suddenly feeling very tired, he felt like his life was being played with by bad luck.

"I go home first sir" Lea got up from her seat.

"How was my offer?" Raymond frowned. He feels his pride is freefall because his marriage invitation is not considered by Lea.

Though this marriage invitation has long been in the dream, by the line of models or SPG who have long adored him.

"Let me think again" Lea said, not caring.

"Your debt is paid off" Raymond quickly said. Lea looked at him confused.

"If you accept my offer earlier, all your debts I assume are paid off .. meal payable debt, tissue debt ..."

"The debt with Kinanti also paid off?" ask Lea.

"What other debt are you in with Kinanti, then what does it have to do with me?" sahut Raymond astonished.

"I'm equally spent on clothes, shoes and bags for work .. it's you who tell."

"Yaaaa, that's it too." Raymond rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Deal?" Raymond extended his hand to shake.

Leah was still speechless looking at Raymond's outstretched hand, "For the sake of the children." Raymond turned his head to William and Maura who were playing.

She knew Lea was very weak when it came to children.

Slowly Lea raised her hand, but still hesitated to shake it, Raymond impatiently pulled Leah's hand to shake, "DEAL, we're married."

"For the sake of children," Lea continued quietly

"Yes, for the sake of the children." Raymond nodded steadily.

"We need to move fast. Now you I take you home, then immediately prepare your files as soon as possible to register our marriage." Raymond swiftly picked up the car contact and was ready to depart.

Lea looked at her confused boss, who had seemed relaxed and uninspired to change in an instant.

...🔹️...

A week later Lukman was sitting sweetly in front of Raymond's desk.

He immediately arrived after receiving a short message containing a wedding invitation between Raymond and Lea.

At first, when he received the short message, he did not believe the name listed in the invitation photo.

Lukman to enlarge the appearance of the red invitation until the letters per letter are seen very clearly.

But as soon as he received the information from Nina, he believed it.

"What's this?" Lukman showed me a picture of the wedding invitation on his phone.

"Your doctor classmate doesn't know what it is" Raymond said, pretending to be busy behind his laptop.

"You? ... married? .... with Lea??"

"What's the matter?, we're both single, she's a woman and I'm a man."

"Love each other?" search Lukman.

"Can be arranged, .. rather need each other. Take and give."

"You have been interested in Leah for a long time" Lukman said.

"Heeiii .. there I was it helps him, what's wrong with helping employees who have problems. I'm just sorry to see Maura." said Raymond still keeping the prestige.

"Haahh!!, then why is it that when Susan, Anita and Bianca experience the same thing you don't marry them all?"

As he replied to Lukman's words, Raymond's phone rang "Now?, well we're going there right away. Thank you." Thank you." A big smile was imprinted on his face as he hung up the phone.

"Sorry, I'll stay. We want to fiitting clothes for a contract." Raymond patted Lukman on the shoulder cheerfully and then rushed out without looking back.
