After a moment of silence, Dea finally opened her voice.
"Hye jin's. For what happened this afternoon, I want to apologize to you. I really don't know if Richie is your fiancee. I just keep rejecting him, but he...."
"I beg you, Dea. Never again to reject Richie. He's a good guy. He loved you so much that there was no longer a gap for me to enter his heart. Marry her, Dea," Hye-jin pinta.
"But I have no feelings for Richie, Hye Jin. I don't want to marry her" Dea said bitterly. How could he be so willing to marry Richie while he knows that Hye Jin really loves Richie.
Hye Jin clasped Dea's hand and looked at her. "Please, Dea. Marry Richie for me. If you don't marry Richie later, Grandma will definitely insist on getting us married. If that happens, then I will suffer greatly because Richie has never loved me at all, "Hye Jin said with a pleading gaze.
"But you love Richie" Richie said with a downcast look.
"But Richie loves you, Dea. As long as I was engaged to her, she never thought I existed at all. He was always cold to me. And I don't want to be stuck in a painful relationship with Richie. Please marry Richie." persuade Hye Jin once more.
Dea was silent. He is not someone who is so willing to take someone else's man. "Sorry, Hye Jin I...."
"I don't accept rejection. I assume you've agreed to this marriage. You'll be happy, Dea. I need to get down. I booked a ticket to go back to Korea tonight. I don't want to leave Grandma alone." Hye Jin started to stand up. "See you, Dea," said Hye Jin, who had now started leaving Dea's room.
Dea fell silent. He was only able to stare at Hye Jin's body which slowly started to disappear from his room.
Dea felt more guilty. It shouldn't be Richie releasing a girl as good as Hye jin just for her sake.
Dea decides to step out and chase after Hye jin. But he was so surprised to find Richie standing right in front of the door of his room.
"You.... What are you doing here," ketus Dea.
"I just wanted to say that I'm going to take Hye Jin to the airport" Richie said.
Dea fell silent. "Why do you have to tell me?"
"Yes because you are my future wife, so I say goodbye to you." Richie blinked one eye tempting Dea.
"Based on a crazy man! I told you I wouldn't marry you!"
"You're still getting married to me, Dea. Don't you feel sorry for Uncle Arya and Aunt Zara? Do you want to disappoint them? Look at social media. I don't know who spread it, but the news about us that night has been sniffed by the media" Richie said to surprise Dea.
This day Dea was lazy to hold her phone.
"W-what?"
"Come down. He's there my family will discuss our wedding date." Richie slowly held Dea's hand as the girl was still stunned. There was no fight like usual.
"Trust me, Dea. I'll never leave you. And as for Hye Jin, you've heard for yourself right, if she approves of us getting married."
Dea seemed to think. His gaze looked straight at Richie.
"All right, I'll marry you. But I agreed not because I love you, but because I love my family. I want to return the favor of this family to me. So you can never get me wrong!"
Richie can't believe he heard that. Dea finally agreed to this marriage. Richie was so happy. He didn't care why Dea agreed to this marriage. Richie is convinced that he will definitely be able to make Dea fall in love with him later.
Richie reflexively hugged Dea tightly. Makes Dea sculpt surprised by Richie's embrace.
"Thank you for agreeing to this marriage."
Dea fell silent. There was turmoil in her heart feeling Richie's embrace. His heart was beating fast at this moment. Not wanting to dissolve in a feeling, Dea immediately distanced her body from Richie's embrace.
Richie smilingly stared at the back of Dea who disappeared from behind the door of Dea's room. He felt relieved, although eventually he would still marry his royal girl, at least Dea had now agreed to their marriage that Dea had always refused.
"Wait for Me, Dea. I'll be right back" said Richie, whose voice was a little harsh, so Dea could hear him. Richie gets off soon and takes Hye Jin to the airport.
"Based on a mad man" said Dea in a thin smile.
Dea walks into the bathroom and washes her face to make it feel fresh. He decides to go down to meet with Richie's family.

"Where's Dea, Richie? Didn't you go to her room to take her down?" rebecca asked and was nodded by everyone.
It was clearly visible a twinkle of happiness from Richie's face. Different from before when he was about to climb the stairs to Dea's room.
"Yes, Auntie. Dea is preparing to meet you" Richie said with a smile.
Hye Jin could only look at her softly. The girl was convinced that Dea would have agreed to marry Richie. He is hurt, but he is also happy when he sees the happiness that radiates from Richie's face.
"Yes, then quickly deliver Hye Jin to the airport. Another 30 minutes the plane will take off" Uncle Gemal ordered.
"Good Uncle," Richie said obediently.
Hye Jin and Richie get out of the house to Richie's car. Quickly and carefully Richie drives his car to the airport, he does not want Hye Jin to miss the plane.
Not long after Richie's car arrived at the airport. Both down.
Richie takes Hye Jin inside. There was no conversation between the two of them from Arya's house to the airport. Richie executes Auntie and her Uncle's orders to deliver Hye Jin to the landing plane.
"Richie," call Hye Jin.
Richie looked at Hye Jin who was now looking at him with a smile.
"What's wrong?"
"I had a request of you before I returned to Korea."
"Request?"
"Yes. I want us to be friends like we were before we got married. Can it, Richie?" Hye jin asked expectantly.
Richie stared silently at Hye Jin. Indeed, since the matchmaking of himself and Hye Jin, the friendship between the two became severed.
'Just be friends, there's no harm, right?' richie said in his heart.
Then Richie smiled. "Alright, Hye jin. But this is just a friendship, because you know for yourself, right, that I'm going to marry Dea soon" Richie said.
Hye jin smiled. "Of course, at least other than us relatives, we are also friends. That's more than enough for me. I also pray for your happiness and that of Dea" Hye Jin said sincerely.
Then they shook hands before Hye Jin headed for the plane when the passenger's call was on board.
After Hye Jin's plane takes off from the runway, Richie immediately returns to Papa Arya's house. He could not wait to meet the girl of his heart.
