Mother-in-law Obsession

There's No Choice

"Mom just suggested you better accept the woman I've been looking for. You don't have to worry, I've made sure that she won't hold him accountable. After your child is born everything will return to how it was," added Zeline who again made Devian upset and Azura killed slowly.

Devian bit his lower lip firmly, glancing at Azura who was now shaking and gripping her hand no less strongly through the tail of his eyes.

"I think I'm staying ti-"

"Devian will do it," Azura cut in one breath.

Spontaneous Devian turned his head completely towards Azura. Looking at the mistrust of the wife who had said the unexpected unilaterally, without saying a word to her first.

"Azura!" reprimand Devian with a dislike expression.

Azura turned her head, looking at Devian with her desperate gaze. His eyes were already glazed over, reflecting his tiredness at Devian.

Without his consent, Azura immediately pulled Devian's hand out. Leaving behind the grinning Zeline gazed at the departure of the couple and Darren who was staring at them indifferently, but had the same feeling of pleasure as Zeline.

"What do you mean by agreeing with what mom said, Azura?!" devian asked as he threw his beautiful wife's hand quite rough after they were outside.

The cold night wind immediately attacked the two, as if they were warming up to make it look even more gripping. Azura's heart trembled as Devian snapped at her, the cold glare Devian showed as if helping the night wind to make her freeze.

"Devian" said Azura.

The beautiful woman sobbed, she was no longer able to withstand the pain of the wide gaping wound created in her heart.

"I beg you, we just have to obey your mother. I just want us to be able to live happily like a couple in general after this," Azura said with great difficulty. His chest felt tight, his respiratory organs seemed to not function properly.

Hearing that, Devian's expression softened. Replaced with a sad look that means deep. Great sorrow also crept in his heart. Just like Azura, Devian was also inner tormented.

Azura held both shoulders wide her husband, not long before her head bowed. Not enough to hold him up to keep looking up due to the burden on his head is also no less big. The broad shoulders were flattened, venting Azura's helplessness there.

A protracted disappointment, a deep sadness, a tightness in the tormenting chest, and a truly poignant sob.

Even the bodyguards guarding the front door had to look away. They still have the heart to feel unable to see the sad sight. They all know how the condition of the household of the two married couples who became a mess just because of heredity problems.

Hearing the sobbing of the young master's wife slowly came to make them full, pity could no longer be hidden from the guard's faces. They knew very well how hard and difficult the household twists and turns the couple faced even after marriage.

"Azura."

Devian's heavy voice churned in the cold night air. Devian's burly arms were raised around Azura's frail body, which was shaking more and more violently as he grabbed her. Bring warmth to his beautiful wife who is so fragile.

"I'm gonna do it. For your sake, I'll do it" Devian concluded a little unsure. But, once again. For his wife's sake, for Azura's sake. Whatever he's gonna do.

That day, in front of the house of the in-laws with the guards who were witnesses. The night sky is darkened with decreasing temperatures. Stars and moons that shine brightly without any disturbing gray clouds also bear witness.

Both pairs of husband and wife have decided the path that both choose. One of the two paths has different twists and turns. All things around them will be silent witnesses who trigger the ocean waves that will wash away their households.

And everything there is also a silent witness and a living witness of how Devian Ernest Mendoza loved Azura Navy Mendoza more than his own life, in this time.

A beautiful woman was looking out the window of the cafe, looking at the panorama of the sky that was exposed freely without white clouds. The sky was really bright today, but not as bright as his mood. One of his hands was busy wiping one of the cafe tables. However, his mind was somehow where it was now.

"Sir Alea," called another beautiful woman.

"Your phone reads, Brother. Mama's sister called, "the woman said, handing over a cell phone to Alea.

Alea received his phone which he had previously left behind in a special arena where the cafe workers used to store mobile phones.

"Thank you, Jane," said Alea who immediately raised the call.

From here Alea could hear the sound of sobs from across there. Alea's legs instantly gagged, the slightest bit he knew enough what was going on there. A roar already means something bad happened right?

'Intern.'

This was not even the voice of her Mama, a furious feeling began to surround her heart at this moment. Alea tried to stay standing, although eventually his efforts were in vain and he ended up falling to the floor.

'Your mother's disease is recurring, getting worse and having to be operated on immediately.'

Alea looked troubled, her brain only thinking of one thing. Of money. The problem is only in the money, if the money is there then the mother can definitely be operated on and end up recovering.

Alea's eyes wildly searched for Jane's whereabouts with reddened eyes. No need to think and wait anymore, Alea immediately stood up and ran when Jane was caught by her sense of sight.

"Je-Jane. I beg you to help me," Alea asked as she cried with a trembling hand holding the hand of Jane who was holding the customer's order menu notebook.

"What's up, brother?" jane asked, feeling annoyed to see the figure he had considered his brother.

"Ma-mama I hiks is very sick and his disease is recurrent. My mother had to have surgery, I had to send money for her operating expenses" Alea replied.

Alea continued to plead with Jane who was now silently flinching at him with a guilty look. Alea didn't care, he just needed money now. His mother had to heal, he had no one but his mother. Alea was sure Jane knew what she meant without needing to be clear about what she needed.

Jane's a rich man, at least Alea has high hopes for Jane.

While Jane looked at Alea with a sad look, she felt so devastated to see Alea like this. Moreover, he could do nothing to help Alea at the moment.

"Sir Alea, I'm really sorry. This time I can't help you, my account is being blocked by my Papa after the last time you borrowed money from me. I made a mistake, so Papa punished me with this" Jane said.

Hearing that Alea slumped back to the floor. His heart pounded hard as if he were protesting and wanted to get out. His hand tightly squeezed the long fine hair. His head was so dizzy to think of how else to get more money.

For the operating expenses and living expenses in this man's land.

Jane came down, rubbing Alea's trembling back that shook her heart. He panicked, but guilt dominated.

"K-sister, I'll try to talk to Papa. I'll persuade her to open my account" Jane said in a trembling voice holding back tears.

Jane grabs her mobile phone at a nearby desk, and calls her dad in Dubai. However, her intentions were clouded as Alea held back the movement of her hand. The beautiful woman took off her apron, then stood up and placed it on the same table as Jane's phone.

Alea hurried to take her coat, smiled faintly at Jane who was staring at her, then ran out of the cafe without saying anything.

Jane's statement was enough to make her brain stop working. Alea felt desperate and thought that this was the end of her form of devotion to the mother who was not even well blessed. However, Alea remembered one thing.

He still has one other way.
