NOT THE USUAL CINDERELLA (Season 2)
PREVIOUS OWNER OF THE PENDANT



Deanda took a deep breath to control herself so as not to be tempted by any tender and friendly treatment from Alvero.


"But my Al, for me it's not the beautiful or the fancy of the frame, but how we appreciate the moment in the photo. I hope that every time we look at the photo, we always remember with the oath of allegiance that we have said in front of God and witnesses, for we can love each other, support each other, he said, and trust each other until death do us part." Deanda said as she moved her head to the side, so that she could kiss Alvero's friendly and gentle forehead whose head was being spoiled between her neck and shoulders.


"Don't worry sweety, without looking at the photo, in my heart and mind, I will always remember my oath of allegiance to you. And all my life I will always try to keep it. Because to me, you are everything to me." After finishing his words, Alvero kept his head away from Deanda's neck and released his embrace from the back of Deanda's body.


"Let's continue our search." Alvero said as he clasped Deanda's shoulder, taking her back to walk through the museum room while hugging his wife's shoulder.


Alvero is self-conscious enough not to continue her action of kissing Deanda's neck, or she can't get away from her passions and passions that would be harder to control if she didn't stop now.


For a while Deanda and Alvero focused on observing the photos in the museum, especially the photos of the women.


Alvero took a deep breath after he and Deanda were busy walking around and observing the photos on display in the museum, but none of the women in the photos wore necklaces with pendants like the ones worn by Alaya. Even wearing a pendant that was a little similar they did not find.


"Huh, looks like my prediction missed. I was hoping to find out who owned the pendant by looking at these photos. Because I can no longer remember who the woman who owned the pendant was, even though I'm sure I've seen it." Alvero said as one of his fingers scratched his non-itchy brows.


"Are all the photos on display in this place all members of the Gracetian royal family? Um. I mean, there might be a royal whose picture isn't posted here." Deanda said as she looked at the row of neatly arranged photo albums in the large closet in one corner of the museum.


"Nothing, all members of the royal family, especially with the surname Adalvino and their wives for more than 5 descendants all have photos or paintings in this museum. For the photo album located there, it was a collection of other photos of those who were already here." Alvero who saw where Deanda's eyes were looking directly gave an explanation of the neatly arranged photo album on the shelf.


"May I have a quick look at that photo album?" Deanda asked Alvero with her eyes fixed on the photo albums with a curious face.


"Well! Why should you ask permission for such a thing. Just look if you want to see it." Alvero said as she lightly ruffled Deanda's hair in dismay because Deanda had been too polite to her, who was her own husband, as if she was acting like someone else.


Deanda immediately smiled as she heard Alvero's words, as well as feeling Alvero's hand shuffling her hair. With a slight rush, Deanda walked towards that shelf, leaving Alvero who preferred to sit in a high chair nearby while staring at Deanda who immediately looked at the photo album and read the titles of the albums that's. The title is neatly written on the fringes of each photo album. It is written vertically from the bottom up.


Deanda's eyes narrowed slightly to see an album with the words "VINCENT ADALVINO & LARENA HILMAR (MONTH XX, YEAR 20XX)." With a slight hesitation, Deanda grabbed the photo album, and began to open sheet by sheet of neatly arranged photos in the photo album.


Empress Larena Hilmar, truly a beautiful and graceful woman. Papa Vincent's handsome figure and the beauty of the consort Larena really become a blend that makes the noble Alvero born with a figure that looks so perfect as a man. It's a pity that the time for them to be together and make a match is too short.


Deanda said inwardly with eyes that looked in admiration for the figures of Vincent and Larena in their youth. All of the photos made Deanda take a few deep breaths, until there was a photo that made Deanda's eyes suddenly widened in shock.


The photo shows a room filled with floral decorations in light blue and pink, suggesting that Vincent and Larena were in their special moment. However, that was not what made Deanda's eyes widen in shock.


In the photo is a figure of Vincent standing behind the body of Larena, appears to be pairing a necklace with an oval-shaped pendant, as worn by Alaya.


"My Al. come here for a minute." With a disjointed voice from nervousness, Deanda called out to Alvero.


Deanda tried to make sure that she did not look wrong and did not remember wrong. However, no matter how much he tried to remember, he was fully convinced that the shape of the pendant that Vincent was attaching to Larena's neck was exactly the same as the pendant worn by Alaya.


Alvero who was initially sitting in a high chair while folding his hands in front of his stomach and was engrossed in observing Deanda who was looking at the photo album, was, leaping straight out of his chair upon hearing the call from Deanda, and with elegant steps as usual, Alvero walked towards Deanda.


"What's sweety? Did you find anything?" As soon as he approached Deanda, Alvero's eyes stared at the photo album that was wide open in front of Deanda.


"Look at this my Al." Deanda's forefinger immediately pointed to the photo on Larena's neck which was being paired with a necklace with an oval-shaped pendant by Vincent.


Alvero's eyes immediately widened in shock at what Deanda's finger showed. Quickly, Alvero immediately took out a fold of paper with the pendant that Jose had described earlier this afternoon from his pants pocket, and immediately unfolded the paper.


Alvero began to observe and compare between the pendant in the photo and the pendant image of Jose. Alvero took a deep breath as he closed his eyes once he saw that the resemblance between the pendant on Jose's hand-scrawled image and the pendant on the photo reached more than 90 percent.
