Mother's Choice Woman

Chapter 36. Help Elliyat

Helping Elliyat Become a Photographer

Lintani was enjoying her soup while regretting what happened today because she could no longer see Mo, to thank him for cooking the soup for her. Maybe the woman has returned to her home.

After the soup ran out he returned to his room feeling very sorry because today he could not see his mother in the hospital. How she was hesitating to ask Askelan. He was afraid, when the man was angry, because he had neglected his duty to invite Elliyat to a conversation. All because of that damn card.

Lintani locked the door and she tried to sleep though, unable to because she had been asleep all day, as a result of smelling a scent containing tranquilizers until she looked like a fainting person.

This morning in the room made him wonder. So, who was Askelan, he only knew from Haifa that the man's position was very important in the city and not just anyone could deal with him. What does she mean then, only a precious girl like Haifa can be her life companion.

She looked at her marriage certificate blankly, she never intended to know the contents because it was useless. He would dispose of the letter after the agreement was completed. But now he's opening for the first time.

While filling out the form that time, Lintani did not lie to anyone about her identity, she was an unemployed woman who had no family.

Yeah, he doesn't have a family, if anything, that was. He once read a story in an old newspaper that the Syahrain family was the only family whose members were all killed in the storm. The Shahrain family is his family.

However, she became the son of the Lux family, after she was imprisoned the family removed her from the list and now she has a new identity as Askelan Harrad's wife. Actually she could be called Madame Harrad. In Lintani's dream. Suddenly the girl smiled. The only consolation as he read the letter was that Askelan's date of birth turned out to be much older than his age, the man turning 36, this year. He thought the man was younger or the same age as him.

Lintani reflected, why his face looks much older than his age of 28 years. Was it because he had a difficult time during his eight years in prison?

She began to apply the face cream available on the dressing table that she had never touched before. Shortly after that, he finally fell asleep.

Outside the room, Jordan arrives with news that his task is complete. Then he brought an invitation.

“What is this?” askelan said without touching the yellow thing, with the gold logo and the luxurious look of the wrapper on the table in front of her.

“This invitation from Elder Harrad for you Sir!” jordan said as he opened it and then showed the date and day on which Aslan should come as their guest of honor. “I was going to pick it up from the office!”

“You think I want to come to such a stupid event?”

“Do you not know what the Elders of Harrad meant to make this event? Kan, this is commonly used to find their daughters-in-law couple.”

“Then?”

“Maybe they mean, one of them is to find you a partner from the nobles of the city, right?”

“Not! You're wrong!”

“Yes, it's up, but, this is one way of showing that you have your own partner, rather than later, be betrothed to the choice of Elders!”

“Ah, whatever!”

“Oh, yes, Sir. What about Miss, is she okay?”

“Well, there I am, you don't have to think about it!”

“Yes! I believe you will take good care of him .. Material I'm sure you kissed him because he's cold!”

“Yes! Fine ... Keep hold of that ego of yours, I'll go home now, and you'd better bring a proper lady at the party, if you want to be OK!”

“Who dares hurt me?”

“Yes, yes, no. But, don't take Miss Haifa, she's very unsuitable to be among the quiet Harrad family!”

“Don't interfere in my business!”

Jordan leaves, before Askelan completely unplugs the muffled weapon that was always on her waist.

The next morning, Lintani was by the side of the gurney where Elliyat lay holding hands, and they began to talk.

“Mother, I'm sorry, yesterday I couldn't look because I wasn't feeling well.”

“Are you pregnant?”

Lintani is not pregnant but she inevitably has to admit to being pregnant because the one who will be faced with Elliyat later, is not a child born from her womb, but a child from Haifa who is the seed of Askelan.

“I haven't checked it yet, Mom!” lintani said with a small laugh, her face revealing a timid look. Makes Elijah laugh too.

“Why should you be ashamed that you are pregnant with my grandson?”

“Mother ... don't say that I'm pregnant, but I've only been married a few days to your son!”

“Isn't that great, my son is amazing isn't it?”

“Mother, you've said it over and over again, lest she know that if you praise her one more time, then I'll be finished tonight!”

Eliat laughed again and his voice was loud enough to leave the ward, and at that time Askelan was at the door. He looked at Lintani with a cynical look from returning jealous, he had no idea what made his mother able to laugh like that.

“What are you guys talking about?” thus the look in his eyes spoke to his mother and Lintani, the two women were staring at him.

“Oh, yes, dear. Did you know there was a party invitation from the Harrad family?” Elliyat said as she clasped Lintani's hand.

“Mother ... Your child, me!” askelan said but, Elliyat ignored him.

“Come there for me, get their photos or videos, I want to know their faces one by one. Do you want to? My son's askel couldn't have done it. But, you can pretend to take a selfie with her!”

“Sure!” lintani said without thinking long, making Askelan widen her eyes towards the girl who, did not feel at all if she was being glared at.
