“Hah…. Women as good as you, who love your family so much even your siblings and stepmothers and people who are jealous and mean to you. You always try to stand up for them, even if they've never been nice to you. If anyone dares to say that you're an unfilial child…. I wonder how big that person's sacrifice was to his family.” Alvero answers Deanda's question while biting the bottom of her lips, trying to make Deanda not feel like a useless person so thinking that she is not a good child.
“Sometimes don't care too much about other people's opinions. After all, those who talk like that do not feel and experience what you have been through all this time. Let others think like their stomachs. For sure there are many people near you who know about ready and how a Deanda, who is a beautiful and kind woman, whose heart is so soft, that sometimes let others fool her.” Alvero said while grimacing.
Hearing the last part of Alvero's sentence being heard making fun of him, Deana gave a small smile.
And that little smile, really makes Alvero feel relieved, because with that smile shows how Deanda has started to be able to control her emotions and thoughts, can already be invited to joke a little.
“I'll take care of it for you. You just need to calm down and rest a lot for a while.” Alvero's words made Deanda immediately turn her eyes to Alvero with protest.
“Why? Do you want to meet Alaya and Papa Alexis by yourself without taking me? I also wanted to hear what papa would say about his sudden departure back then and let him think for a dozen years that he was already an orphan.
“Sweety, remember your health. You just woke up from your fainting. Don't force yourself. This time let me do it myself. Do you doubt your own husband to solve this problem?” Deanda immediately shook her head as soon as she heard the question from Alvero.
“Not so my Al. But, I want to be there. I would also like to hear firsthand what my father Alexis has said about what he has been going through and doing for a dozen years. Even he who never gave me news, let alone visited me. At least he must have heard about the engagement, as well as our wedding. It's sad to remember he didn't try to do anything to give his blessing to me.” Deanda said as she took a deep breath, trying hard not to cry anymore.
“Take sweety. Everything you want to ask and want to know, I'll take care of it for you. But promise me, you'll just be quiet for a while here and rest.” Alvero tries to persuade Deanda to change her decision to attend the meeting with Alaya and Alexis.
“No.” Deanda answered briefly and firmly, making Alvero a little dumbfounded at how stubborn Deanda was today, unlike Deanda's usual attitude.
“Sweety... Please follow my words this time. I want the best for you. Your most important health condition for now.” Alvero still tried to prevent Deanda's desire, because enough to worry if Deanda returned emotions and fainted a second time because of the pressure that will be faced.
“I can't my Al. I have to come. I'm doing fine. I've been feeling a lot better now, and also..”.
“Sweety, you need a lot of rest and not to think too hard. Pity our baby if you keep forcing like that.” Eventually Alvero uses his last weapon to get Deanda to cancel his intention to join talks with Alaya and Alexis.
Alvero's words successfully made Deanda's eyes glare perfectly and subconsciously one of her palms directly touched her stomach and stopped there with a look of disbelief in what she had just heard from Alvero's lips.
“True sweety, you're containing evidence of our love. He is still too small, still 4 weeks old. He is still so weak and vulnerable. Therefore we both have to take good care of him and be careful. So that he can grow strong and healthy. For that..”
“My Al! I still can't believe it! I'm pregnant! I'm pregnant with my Al! I'll be a mama!” Deanda screamed hysterically while hugging Alvero tightly in her sitting position, making Alvero smile with satisfaction at the happy face and so happy Deanda heard the news about her pregnancy.
Exactly what Alvero had predicted earlier, that Deanda would definitely be very happy if she knew she was pregnant now.
“Because it's sweety, it's good that you stay in the room and get enough rest today, to recover your body that just fainted. You know, in your present condition, you must take care of your heart and emotions. If you faint too often, it will not be good and will be dangerous for our baby.” Hearing Alvero's words, Deanda instantly fell silent for a while, occasionally seeming to sigh heavily.
“I promise I will try hard to control my emotions. Please, allow me at least to attend so that my heart may also feel relieved. I promise I won't say much. I won't be angry. I will be a good listener to you my Al. I won't interrupt the meeting of the three of you.” This time Deanda's words successfully make Alvero confused to behave and decide how the meeting.
“Ah, sweety, you put me in a difficult position to decide to accept your request which could endanger your health and our baby.” Alvero said as he looked towards Deanda who was looking at him with a hopeful face.
“Promise me. If you feel that you can no longer control your emotions, you will step back and leave the meeting no matter how much curiosity and curiosity is in your heart.” Alvero finally tried to grant Deanda's request on condition that everything could go well, as well as safely.

Alexis, who was from Deanda, was brought in by Alvero in his carrier, immediately holding his breath as soon as he saw the figure of Alvero who came out with Deanda who seemed to have looked fresher compared to the last time Deanda fell unconscious earlier.
Alaya who had been sitting right next to Alexis, as well as observing Alexis' unsettled attitude, actually she herself felt so nervous facing Alvero and Deanda at this time. Various thoughts filled his mind.
Think of the possibilities of Alvero and Deanda's attitude after knowing who they really are, and what they've been doing for a dozen years.
“Good afternoon Miss Alaya, and also Mr. Alexis Federer.” Alvero's manner and words of saying his words were enough to make both Alaya and Alexis slightly jerk in shock, realizing that Deanda must have told Alvero about Alexis' whereabouts who turned out to be alive. Alexis is his real father.
