NOT THE USUAL CINDERELLA (Season 2)

ABOUT ALVERO'S ONLY FRIEND

"Ah, I never imagined I could drive a sports car as luxurious as yours. But since childhood I prefer cars with this type of off road. The car looks nice and cool." Unburdened by not seeing the glint of jealousy in Alvero's eyes, Deanda casually answered Alvero's question, while her eyes continued to observe the inside of Ernest's land rover.

"Haisttt, don't compare my sports cars to these, which cost nothing at all." Hearing Alvero's words that began to show dislike towards the car he was driving right now, Deanda immediately restrained her smile.

From the last words of Alvero, Deanda can immediately guess that Alvero began to feel unacceptable because he felt compared to Ernest.

Ist. noble base, always want to be the most noticed, praised, and considered the best. Behind his stubbornness, he was also a spoiled male figure who wanted all the attention to be on him alone. Sometimes the noble attitude is very childish.

Deanda said inwardly grimacingly realizing that even a car could make that handsome man of hers jealous in such a way.

But. I can really understand that it happened because of so little affection that he got during his childhood. From now on I will make your life filled with love. I will adore you as both a king and my beloved husband. So from now on, you only know what is called love and affection, no longer revenge and heartache.

Deanda again said in her heart as her hand moved stroking one of the lower arms of Alvero's hand holding the wheel, making Alvero glance at the hand of Deanda who was on top of his arm while smiling by biting the bottom of his lips with a face look a little shy, and that definitely makes his chest rustle.

"Actually, when did Ernest buy this car? On whose advice?" Hearing Deanda's question, Alvero immediately scrunched his forehead.

"It was quite a while ago, two or three years ago. Even my latest sports car, there are those who are not yet 3 months old. You should have seen the two cars together to know the big difference between Ernest's land rover and my sports car. Not with my new sports car.... This car is not even comparable to my sports car, whose age is even more than 5 years." Alvero said in a confident tone that to Deanda was just like a snobbish tone, making Deanda almost unable to hold back her gelatinous laughter.

Judging from any side, an Ernest who was a knight would not be able to match the luxury items belonging to a Gracetian king. Without even saying it, everyone would know that.

"I gave Ernest advice to choose this car myself." Alvero continued speaking while glancing at Deanda.

"Ah, yes, besides I chose this type of car for Ernest, I also paid the full price of this car. This car is a gift to Ernest from me. At that time I also bought Erich a car with the same type, only the color is different." Alvero deliberately clarifies his position as important as a party that in addition to choosing, but also pay for Ernest's land over car, also belongs to Erich, who happens to have never been seen by Deanda.

"O, huh? Wahhh, besides being great at choosing, it turns out that the Gracetian king is a very generous man." Deanda immediately praised Alvero, making Alvero's face this time unable to hide his pride anymore.

Seeing his efforts to bear fruit, Deanda smiled with a relieved face had succeeded in making Alvero forget his jealous face just because of a car.

In the end, during the trip to Renhill city, the two of them changed the subject. Talk about a plan they're going to do in Renhill. Discussing details about their plans in Renhill, they did to shorten the time. Once deliberately done Deanda, so that Alvero's mind no longer think and compare about his luxury sports car with Ernest's land rover, which ended with a jealous attitude Alvero.

Sometimes Deanda deliberately invites Alvero to talk about some events in the past, while he works at the bakery of Mr. Logan or Deanda college. When Alvero also recounted his college days in Italy, with his best friend Ornado, Deanda's eyes were seen staring at Alvero excitedly, feeling both happy and curious, because there were some tense events while they were still in Italy.

"I didn't expect Queen Elizabeth's mother to dare to go that far." Deanda muttered softly to hear how Alvero told her about the time in Italy, several times secretly Eliana deliberately sent and paid the thugs to hurt Alvero.

"I was fortunate to have loyal friends like Ornado Xanderson, the owner of the Xanderson group who, with his power, ruled the business world in Europe. It even has a special security team that is no less powerful than the exclusive bodyguards belonging to the Gracetian kingdom, no less fierce than a group of mafia, and their IT team is also very sophisticated." Alvero said as his eyes looked straight ahead, in addition to trying to stay focused on the street in front of him, what he had just told Deanda, made him remember the events of the past.

"Several times the guards and Ornado saved me from the assault of Eliana's men. In fact, Ornado and his team of bodyguards cut down a group of mobsters who were paid high by Eliana. After that, the underground forces of the Xanderson group warned the mafia leaders not to harass me and the people of the Xanderson group or the underground forces of the Xanderson group would destroy them. Since then Eliana didn't dare to harass me during my time in Italy, because she was under threat from the mobsters." Alvero continues the story, which makes Deanda's eyes look excited to hear the story.

"Isn't your best friend just an ordinary businessman?" Alvero laughed at Deanda's plain question.

"I've told you before. He was a great and successful businessman who ruled almost all of Europe, and his business was in almost all corners of the world. He's not a king like me, but about the wealth and power he has, he can beat the position of a king, especially if only a king from a country that does not adhere to an absolute monarchy like Gracetian. Because of the power he has, he can make the wheels of the economy, especially the European region stop or run according to his will. With the underground security team at his disposal, not even a mafia leader in the world would dare to go against his orders." Alvero said while remembering how his friendship with Ornado intertwined so far, his only friend, from the past until now.
