"I wanted to do it, but... Your mother wouldn't allow it. Your mother.so like this also because of my mistake, who insisted on begging her. He was very
angry and trying to throw myself out, but it seems like his condition is very weak to finally fall unconscious." Thomas lowered his head, embarrassed to look at Nathan or Rey. Because of his actions, it actually resulted in the life of someone threatened.
"It's okay, my mother is old, and her condition is sometimes unstable. Her emotions are also often out of control, especially if it concerns my brother."
"Lili...can you go, and buy some drinks for us?" Mr. Rey looks very friendly to her Princess, but actually the reason why she asked her daughter to go out for a drink is because there's a serious thing she wants to talk to Thomas about, which talk Lili should not know. Lili complied with her father's request. He immediately went to buy a drink, while Mr. Rey and Nathan were still there talking in secret with Thomas.
Although actually Lili realized there was something strange that her father wanted to talk to Thomas. He knew very well how his father was, there was clearly something the old man had hidden from him. Although he was very curious, but as a devoted child, he could not possibly oppose his father's request, let alone just to buy a drink.
After Lili left. The three men sat in waiting chairs provided by the hospital. Thomas sits in the middle, between Mr. Rey and Nathan.
"Thomas.. You know what? There is one most effective way, which my wife can never refuse. I guarantee you, he'll agree to release Aprilia right away, if you want to do this." Mr. Rey speaks very slowly and is full of puzzles. Her face was very serious when saying her. It made Thomas wonder, and very curious. On the other hand, he became worried, if what Mr. Rey would say was something big, that he had to do, or even sacrificed to get the freedom of his childhood friend.
"A... What is it?"
"Married to Lili."
The dhuar! As the lightning bolt struck in broad daylight, Thomas really didn't think that Mr. Rey could come up with an idea that he thought was insane. The man widened his eyes, disbelieving and indeed not wanting to believe her what the middle-aged man beside her had just said at this moment.
"How can there be any connection between marrying Lili and saving April?" Thomas is completely out of his mind. He could not easily agree with Mr. Rey's words, while his love for another woman.
"Of course there is. If you marry Lili, my wife won't likely disappoint your request, her daughter-in-law. You tau? My wife loves Lili very much, because she is our only daughter. Whatever Lili's request, she never refused. So, if you want to free April...."
"Wait first! If that's the case, then why don't you ask Lili to directly beg her Mother, free Aprilia?"
"That's something pretty complicated. At first I thought so too. But, for some reason we can't let Lili do that."
"Stupid! How can I tell you the truth, if this is all planned. My wife and I purposely made it difficult for you to marry our Lili. Yes, at first my wife didn't want to let go of April. But since Lili's crazy about a guy like you, we don't want to have to plan this." Mr. Rey is trying to stay calm. I-maybe he put on a serious face, to cover up his lies.
"What reason?" Thomas is confused. He kept demanding reasonable answers, because marriage was not an easy thing for him, let alone having to share love, while his love was one, and that was for Aprilia.
"Sorry, that's a very personal thing. Not everyone can know that."
Exactly one day ago, when Lili asked permission to both her parents to go to London, attending a matchmaking event. He told me about the man he was going to meet. A handsome and warm-hearted man. The man she was going to meet was the man Aprilia had told her about in recent years.
Excited, Lili went to London, to meet the man. Then, after the matchmaking night arranged by the matchmaking bureau. Lili called her family back in Australia, using the phone. He told me many things, about the nature of Thomas who was friendly also gentle, handsome and had a good career. Everything is perfect in Lili's eyes. Makes Father and Mother feel happy, because their beloved daughter sounds very happy when venomous with them on the phone. Later, Lili also tells the story of Thomas who wants his childhood friend to be free. Lili also asks her mother to release April, but her mother instead says that she will never let go of April, unless Thomas marries Lili, her beloved daughter.
Lili gets angry, and soon explains to Mom that maybe Thomas doesn't like her. As the likes between women and men in his general, but rather as likes between brother and sister. Lili does not want to force a heart that is not for her, especially if remembering the tragedy of her brother's marriage. All destroyed, just because it lacks strong love. Making Lili not brave, imagining Thomas who was forced to marry her, then gradually he will feel bored, bored because he does not have love for his wife, and finally had an affair with another woman. Like what happened to her sister's household and Aprilia.
And it ended like this, when Lili's mother found out that Thomas had come to their house. He takes the opportunity to corner Thomas, so as not to run away from his trap. Before her, she had even told this to her husband who was in the company, to work. The impromptu plan went smoothly, all according to what they wanted.
Even Madame Rey who fell unconscious, there was something on purpose. Actually, he is currently relaxing in the nursery, and does not allow doctors or nurses to tell the truth to people who are outside the room.
The only person who doesn't perform is Nathan. He was completely uninvolved, not even knowing all the truth. About the feelings of her sister, Lili, and her parents' plans. He is sincere, his heart is so soft, and only wishes the best for everyone.
There are two choices between love and sacrifice. Thomas must be prepared for his decision. If he wants to free Aprilia from the shackles of past adversity, then he must be ready to let go of his love, and marry another woman, whom he never thought of. But, if he insists on maintaining his love, there is also no use for him, because during his time they will remain separated by iron bars. It will be even more painful to let the person he loves suffer, lonely, and away from those who love him.
"Because that's your only option. At
the world has nothing more my wife wants than to marry Lili to the person she likes."
"What do you mean, Lili likes me? How come?"
"Well... I'm not sure about that. But last night I heard Lili calling her mom, she told me that she met a guy she liked at a matchmaking event. I'm sure it must be you, and I think my wife would believe that, too."
Thomas was silent, long thought, but all he met was a dead end. Can't argue, because it was her that Lili met.

SOUTH KALIMANTAN, INDONESIA.
"so so...." The man lowered his head, his brain was thinking hard, how and what he should do. It turned out that everything had been determined, let alone what he could say if there was indeed no chance to refuse. Glanced at her girl who was in front of her at this moment, just lowered her head, and smiled shyly.
"Listen to Nak Yusuf. From that day on, I always reminded Alyya, not to date, or like anyone else. Because it's only Nak Yusuf, my daughter-in-law's choice." Mr. Hendra spoke with great emphasis, his face looking very serious. However, the promise of himself and his late father Joseph, was a promise of friendship, which was like a debt to be paid.
"Hm... You're correct. All right, it's a fortune for me to be married to your daughter. Merely, I'm not sure if Alyya would think so either."
"No Brother Yusuf. Alyya was also happy, and felt very lucky to be a Wife, Brother Yusuf. As Father said, Alyya never loved any man, and only prepared herself to be Yusuf's Sister's Wife, someday." said the girl softly, stay with her head down.
Joseph nodded and smiled, a sign of understanding. They decided to set the date of Joseph and Alyya's marriage.

A quiet and quiet afternoon. The rural Eve was comfortable, calm, and cold because of the lush trees, making Andrew who was that afternoon enjoying his relaxing time with the Wife, felt very relaxed.
It was rare for him to be able to enjoy such a time without the burden of a mind.
Gurgling water hit the small rocks in the river stream is quite swift, clear water spoil the eyes with fish that swim. Andrew was so happy to come to a place like this with the woman he loved the most. Hugging and kissing each other, without fear of being seen by others.
"Darling...."
