NOT A WEDDING DRAMA

CHAPTER 39

Ceklek..

Stevi and Fariz's eyes fell on the open door.

Aldrich went into Fariz's room and saw Clara behind Aldrich's body following his steps while looking down.

"So what's your decision?" Ask Fariz.

"Al will marry Clara, Pap, Ma." Answer Aldrich.

"Is that so, Clara?" Tanya Fariz was serious.

All eyes stared at Clara, waiting for her decision.

Clara nodded doubtfully, Stevi let out a sigh of relief because she had agreed.

"But I'm sorry Mr. Fariz and Ms. Stevi. What you saw was not what you thought. Me and Mr. Aldrich did not intentionally do that and did not mean to do pervert in the office, please do not assume I was teasing the son of Father and Mother." Obviously Clara is welding.

Stevi felt so guilty for creating this trap, he really did not have the heart of Clara. Stevi approached Clara and pulled her hand to ask her to speak together.

"Where is Clara going?" Ask Aldrich.

"Mom borrow Clara first, there's something you want to talk to her about." Stevi.

Stevi invites Clara to enter the private room in Fariz's room and invites her to sit on the side of the bed. Stevi's hand held Clara's hand.

"You didn't flirt with my son, but my son loves you very much." Stevi said with the softest speech.

"Forgive this incident, marry my son, we accept you with open arms, with who you are, don't feel unworthy just because of your status, everyone has a past and everyone deserves the best in life." Stevi said wisely.

Clara nodded.

"I have Aldrich with you, stay with him, live happily with my son. If Aldrich hurts you, tell me, I'll reprimand him myself, but before that happens, I make sure that Aldrich will never hurt you." Stevie said really.

Clara was unable to hold back her cries, she stared at Stevi's beautiful face, a motherly face so soft and warm. Clara did not expect Stevi to accept him with all her status.

"May I hold you, Mom?" Clara asked doubtfully who Stevi was referring to.

"Call me Mama, don't think of me as your mother-in-law, but think of me as your mother." Stevi rubbed gently on Clara's back.

While outside, Aldrich stared intently at Fariz and Joni's faces alternately.

"Whose idea is this?" ask Aldrich coldly.

"Oh come on, Son. This idea leads you to marry Clara, right? why are you angry and fighting it." Answer Fariz.

"Pap didn't tell Al about this." Said Al.

"Just scold Joni, she planned this." Answer Fariz casually.

Joni just swallowed her saliva, she was afraid that Aldrich might run amok on her.

"Jon!!" Call Aldrich.

"I.. Yes, young master." Said Joni.

"Please leave, I'll give you a gift for a holiday around Europe." Aldrich.

The originally tensed-faced Joni instantly developed her smile, "Serious boss?" Ask Joni.

"Strue." Answer Aldrich lightly.

"May the prize be reimbursed in the form of money only Boss?" Ask Joni.

"You're short of money, Jon?" This time Fariz asked in surprise.

"It's not so, big sir. It's just that I'm too lonely to travel around Europe alone." Answer Joni.

"I think your salary as my assistant is less, Jon." Fariz said again.

"No big master, it's just that if the young master is willing to give in the form of money, the plan is I want to buy a house to increase my investment, Boss." Joni answered honestly.

"Lho koq Papap, you're the one who wants to give a gift to Joni." Fariz said he did not accept.

"Yes Papap, Al's money also still comes from Papap's money." Answer Aldrich casually.

Fariz wanted to answer Aldrich's words but he saw Stevi walking along with Clara.

Aldrich's eyes did not look at Clara, he wanted to go to her and embrace her, but circumstances have not allowed him to do more.

"You're getting married tonight." Stevi.

Aldrich was surprised, he did not expect if it would be married to Clara today. "But, Ma. Al hasn't proposed to Clara."

"So Mama left you an hour with Clara, why are you doing it? Didn't propose?" Stevi stared cynically at Aldrich.

"It's not so, Ma. Al had asked Clara to get married and Clara agreed, but Clara was also a woman, would have wanted to be applied romantically. Where there's a proposal without flowers and rings." Aldrich.

"After this you go looking for a wedding ring, all between Clara to her boarding house to tidy up her clothes and move to our house. Tonight you're getting married at home, and Mama promised you a reception next month." Stevi.

Clara who already knew it was just according to it, indeed Stevi had previously told Clara about the plan of this plan, but Clara would reject subtly about the respsei, it was, because this is not the first marriage for her, she is too insecure especially if the public knows her status as a widow.

Aldrich took Clara out of the office building. Aldrich who usually likes to tease Clara is now suddenly clumsy.

"Where are we going, Al?" Clara asked as Aldrich's car ripped through the streets of the capital.

"We'll just go to the Mall, Ra. But eat first." Aldrich.

"When I brought the provisions, Al. You're so stocked I just give it to...."

"Joni mean? You can't give Joni any more of your cooking." Aldrich said quickly.

Clara just kept quiet while sighing, she was too tired if she had to argue with Aldrich again.

Until they arrived at the basement, Aldrich parked his vehicle and did not turn off the engine.

"Where's your supply?" Ask Aldrich.

Clara opened the totebag canvas she had brought with her to store her supplies.

"You got two?" Ask Aldrich.

Clara nodded. "I made you a teriyaki beef and an Eggroll." Clara said slowly.

Aldrich smiles and grabs Clara's lunchbox and opens it.

"Keenan the Joni when given this food." Aldrich said then began to feed the rice containing what Clara had made into his mouth.

Clara just smiled, her memory recalling the time when she ate with Aldrich wherever she was. Clarapun began to eat his provisions with a faint smile that was certainly not visible to Aldrich.

"It's good, Ra." Aldrich said while showing a pair of wedding rings.

After lunch in the car, Al took Clara to the Mall in the city center to go to the Dewantara family subscription jewelry store.

"No, Al. I don't like it, the stone is too big."

Aldrich nodded and re-selected the ring inside the glass display case.

"Al, what do you think this is?" Clara asked pointing at a pair of simple rings with small diamonds on top.

Aldrich saw. "It's not so simple Ra? The diamonds are small."

"I like this one, Al. Simple and not too fancy. I can wear it for a day, too." Said Clara.

"Would you wear it?" Ask Aldrich.

Clara nodded, "I'll definitely wear it, Al."

Aldrich immediately agreed to Clara's choice, not if the ring was so simple that it was important Clara would wear it. Aldrich really likes the simple personality of Clara, although Clara knew Aldrich could buy more than his preferred ring but Clara still chose a simple ring.
