At the end of the meeting on the 27th floor of the Golden Tower, a woman of almost fifty got a voice message from someone. Women with a trendy and contemporary fashion style that looks elegant using an elegant white office blouse with a short hairstyle wedge bob. This look shows a glamorous impression. Everyone who saw him could confirm that he was the CEO of the diamond company.
The woman is Mrs. Verlyn Ruby Delwyn, mother of Aksena Amethysia Delwyn and Sellyna Emeraldine Delwyn. The two beautiful princesses Mrs Verlyn have the meaning of names like jewels and diamonds, according to her penchant for precious metal jewelry and gems. Mrs. Verlyn has the character of a mother who is affectionate towards her children but she is also famous as a smart, assertive and disciplined woman for her employees.
He listened to a voice message from someone on his smartphone and called him back. "Good afternoon, Mother,.. How are you?"
"Hello, Verlyn, good news, how are you? Are you still in Tokyo? How's my son Delwyn doing?"
"My news and Delwyn's good Mom, I'm still in Tokyo, mid next month I'll be back. Delwyn is still in Egypt until next month's mother"
"Alright, there's actually something important that I need to talk to you about. Me and Mr. Adney Delwyn will be waiting for you when you come. How's my granddaughter Ver? Why did they never contact the oma and the opa?
Do they know we miss him? as a son-in-law you should routinely bring them to visit our place, you will know our age is not young, our energy is also not like before if you have to travel, you know our age is not young, because we've entrusted all the assets to our son Eric Delwyn and our grandson"
"Oh, I'm sorry, Mom, during the holidays we will definitely visit the place of Mom and Dad, the good news and more beautiful Mom, what is actually the matter, Mom? If there's anything important to talk about, just say it"
"Look Ver. It's not really worth it if I say it now. Papa Delwyn and I will match our grandchildren to the Jourell family, in fact this matchmaking agreement we agreed when Delwyn would marry first, but the Jourell family will only have one son. While we only have one son, and we think this matchmaking will strengthen the friendship of the Delwyn and Jourell families"
"You know who the Jourell family is, they are from a distinguished family and have many business assets, this union will strengthen our friendship and make the shares between Delwyn and Jourell will also increase later. Actually this matchmaking is a deal that Mr. Jourell once said, I hope you understand Ver"
"-meaning?? you guys wanna match up one of my kids? Do mothers forget their age is still very young" said Mrs. Verlyn with furrowed brows.
"Yes, yesterday at the reunion, the Jourell family talked about the matchmaking with us, they have handsome grandchildren, while I have beautiful grandchildren, after all this is still just a matchmaking ver, not yet her marriage, and I have a beautiful grandchild, the wedding can be done if my beautiful granddaughter has grown old and graduated from studies and a career later"
"It seems like I'm going to discuss this with Delwyn yes Mother, T-but they're very young, it doesn't seem appropriate if we've already discussed their matchmaking Mom"
"Ah, you don't need to worry, we will arrange it well, let's set a meeting schedule with my granddaughter, we are looking forward to it, well see you dear son-in-law, take good care of yourself there. hahaha.." (the sound of the phone connection is cut off).
The conversation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was over. Their phone lines are no longer connected. How shocked he was to hear his mother-in-law's talk earlier, a sense of shock surfaced in his heart and mind. Mrs. Verlyn put down her phone and held her head with her fingers. Slowly the land he massaged his forehead with his plump fingers.
His heart was greeted by a sense of anxiety that was turbulent. The wrinkles on his eyebrows and facial features implied a sign of disapproval towards this matchmaking. The feeling of a distressed mother hearing her child will be betrothed by her mother and father-in-law.
He never thought he would match his son to someone else. "No, this can't happen.. They are my beloved daughters, I will oppose my son's matchmaking with others, I don't want their happiness taken away"
He shook his head, and trying to think clearly, emotional feelings began to appear. "I have to call my husband".
At a dinner, the Jourell family consisting of a pair of elderly and one young couple, as well as 3 young men and 1 teenage girl, were, they are enjoying their dinner in the dining room. As the waiter serves up a sweet dessert with caramel toppings, an elderly man with gray hair starts a conversation about matchmaking.
"I recently attended a university alumni reunion and met a friend after 21 years of not meeting. He is Adney Delwyn, 1-room best friend in the dorm, we are reminded of our promise first, to match our children, have you ever heard the name Adney?" The old man smiled with a face full of wrinkles. Everyone at the dining table glanced at him and fell silent.
"I mean papa how? Will papa match this granddaughter of papa's? Isn't the Delwyn family a mining entrepreneur yes, the property business is also where" Mr. Halton Jourell told his father, Mr. Harrison Jourell.
There were 3 young men and a girl in front of him looking at each other. They fell silent and stopped enjoying the dessert in front of him.
"Yes, I will match one of my dashing and handsome grandchildren unless you are Alexa, they have a beautiful and smart granddaughter" he said seriously while glancing at his granddaughter.
"There's no way I'm, because I'm married and I'm getting hahaha" said their eldest son, Frey Jourell.
"Of course I'm not Grandpa, I'm a woman and I'm very young, I don't understand about marriage yet" said their youngest child, Alexa Jourell.
"Of course not, the biggest candidate is my second grandchild and third right, how's Carv? Do you agree with Carver? you're so smart and so good-looking, and more mature, there's no way Carly's your sister, right?" mr Harrison said to his handsome grandson, Carver Jourell.
"No, I disagree. My journey to build a business and career is still very long, why do I have to make an arranged marriage with people I do not know?" he closed his eyes and shook his head.
"Pa, now is not the time for arranged marriages anymore. Let them determine their partners like Frey did before." said Mr. Halton.
"I will give 50 percent of my assets to be managed to my grandson Carver in the future, if he is willing to marry the granddaughter of my best friend Delwyn. Will you refuse my request? You're my smart Carver grandson, and I hope you don't reject my wishes" Mr Harrison insisted, insisting with his sharp, serious gaze, his words surprised everyone who heard him. Mr. Harrison Jourell's assets aren't his main asset, he owns many businesses in property, mining and shipping. While he is willing to give up 50 percent of his assets if his grandson wants to fulfill his desire to be betrothed to the granddaughter of the Delwyn family.
"But he's still in papa school" Mr. Halton defended his son Carver.
"The marriage will take place if they have finished their studies and career later, in the near future will arrange the meeting schedule, because this matchmaking is my wish" said Mr Harrison.
Carver got up from his desk and walked away from his family.
"I'll give you time to think Carv, as soon as I'm going to unite the Jourell and Delwyn families, it's time I give my assets to my heir" Mr Harrison said.
"Dad, isn't that too much? let him determine his partner. My son's journey is still a long one" said Mr. Halton, glancing at his wife in front of him. While Mr. Halton's wife tried to be calm and firm. He could not resist the wishes of his father-in-law at this time.
