"He??!"

"Come on Lara! I'll introduce him to you" Aiden exclaimed at Lara.

Lara came down one more step so that both her legs could step on the ground floor. Lara slowly approached her. As Lara stood in front of the two The soft voice was clearly heard.

"Who is this Auntie?" asked the five-year-old boy, looking in surprise at Lara.

Aiden smiled, he stroked the Princess's jet black mane.

"Papa?" repeat Lara in a soft voice.

Aiden looked at Lara with an unreadable look. He looked towards Venus. His son was born prematurely, because the mother died first before she could look at the face of Venus.

"Venus Brown! Introduce yourself to Mama Lara!" tell Aiden softly.

The two eyes of Venus were rounded to hear the words of the Papa. He smiled at Lara with a cute face.

"Hallo, Mama, my name is Venus Brown. It was good to see my mom in person. Papa is right, Mama Lara is very beautiful, very beautiful" said Venus Polos.

Aiden chuckled at the words of the Princess. It is different with Lara who still does not know what situation she is facing.

"How come you don't want to return my daughter's greeting?" aiden's question made Lara jolt back into her consciousness.

"ah! Yes dear. I'm ah! I mean thanks for the praise. Venus is prettier than Mama" Lara replied rather awkwardly as she said Mama to herself.

"Would Venus hug Mama?" Venus's Plain Questions make Lara feel a little uncomfortable but she has no choice when she looks into Lara's two hopeful eyes.

Lara nodded and bent her legs to equalize her height and Venus. A tiny, milky white hand coiled around Lara's neck. Somehow Lara felt her heart warm.

Honestly, in Lara's heart, she felt in a strong storm. To break his heart. Many questions were lodged in his brain at this moment. About who Venus really is, who the mother of the little boy who is hugging her is right now.

Aiden pulled to the two corners of his lips staring at the two of them.

"Warm as a real Mom's Hugs. Venus is happy if Mama Lara who became Mama Venus is not Aunt Gea," Venus said again.

Lara froze when Gea's name was mentioned by her tiny lips. Venus removed her opener around Lara's neck and stared at Lara for a bit before peeking at Lara's cheek in a quick motion.

"Thank you for being my mom! venus is cheerful.

"Let's get the princess changed and take a shower first, yeah. Let's not itch his body when he wants to sleep later," Aiden said very gently.

"Ready Papa," replied Venus obediently.

He smiled at Lara who was still petrified and stepped dead in the living room towards the room he had occupied first. The nanny followed Lara from behind.

"Sorry."

"For what?" ask Lara still not change her position.

"I'll tell you everything. Let's go to my work first." Aiden's orders help Lara stand up.

Aiden clasped Lara's right hand and led her to her office. Aiden let go of her hand and sat Lara on the sofa in her study.

He stepped closer to the vault under the cupboard next to his desk. He brought a file that looked a little outdated.

Slowly Aiden put the file in front of Lara's thigh. With an eye movement Aiden gave Lara the code to read it. Slowly Lara's hand opened the file there were several photos. Where Aiden's picture with a beautiful girl. And a picture of them getting married on the altar.

Not only the photo, there is also a photo of the woman smiling with a bulging stomach. Without Aiden explaining it, Lara knows exactly what happened. Stuffy! Really very! But he tried to look strong in front of Aiden.

He placed the photo next to his body to read the paper in the file. Slowly Lara read it as if a single word had been missed. He bit his lower lip when the pain hit his heart.

"And when he was four years old, Papa Hera asked Venus to come back to him. Venus is still in my father-in-law's hands. The other one is my own foster father. There is no love in our marriage. Because I was just fulfilling his last request. Although Venus with Gea but he could not like Gea. But strangely when he saw your picture he wanted me to be with you. She said you were so beautiful and deserved to be her Mama" Aiden continued.

"What do you want now?" asked Lara with a sad face.

"Listen to me, Lara. Without asking Venus, I love you. Love you so much that I want to die. Please stay by my side and be a Wife and Mother to Venus and a child to be born in your womb" Aiden asked in a heavy voice.

Lara looked into Aiden's two eyes. To find lies there, but unfortunately Lara failed. Because there are no lies at all.

Lara put the file beside the seat and she stood up from her seat. Aiden could only stare at Lara without many words. He knew it was hard for Lara to accept what had happened.

"Let me think Aiden first. Please let me go back to my apartment first. If I've done well I'll come back here" Lara asked in a weak voice.

"But your condition isn't good Lara. And there's no one watching you and making you eat nutritious, "ban Aiden.

Lara smiled bitterly at Aiden's words.

"I'm used to Aiden and you know what my life has been like for five years now.I'm no longer the Lara Smith who can't do anything. So don't worry. If anything happens I'll call you right away" Lara argued.

Aiden could only sigh in fatigue. Lara stepped out of the man's study, before heading to Aiden's room. He grabbed the small bag he had placed on the nightstand and came back out of the room.

💎 💎 💎

Jung Yunita unceasingly nagged Lara, because Lara was unwilling to eat. And Yunita doesn't like it when Lara looks weak

"Just one bribe, hem!" pinta Yunita in a hearty tone.

Seeing that Lara could not bear it, she swallowed the bland porridge that Yunita made. Lara contacts Yunita when she feels unwell. It didn't take long for Yunita to come to her apartment.

He forced the porridge on Lara and helped clean up Lara's apartment which looked a bit dusty. Lara simply fell asleep on the bed by closing her two eyes.

Yunita went back into Lara's room and placed her palm over Lara's forehead. The heat! That's one word that can describe Lara's body.

"Your body is very hot. We need to call the doctor so you can be handled" Yunita said in a panic

"No Yunita. Let me sleep for a moment, because soon the heat will come down" Lara argued softly with her eyes closed.

Yunita only sighed fretfully looking at the stubbornness of the Friend. He stepped out of the bathroom. Not a few Yunita re-entered with a small bucket of warm water and a handkerchief. He squeezes a handkerchief and puts it on Lara's forehead.

"What makes you sick like this Lara?" yunita asked slowly.

He knew Lara would not answer his question. Because he has entered into the dreamland.

The night has changed with the sun. Sunlight came into Lara's room. Making Lara blink her eyes slowly. His two eyes opened perfectly. His forehead skin multiplied to see if he was not in his room but in a room in one of the hospitals

"You're sober, Lara" the panicked voices of Yunita and Devan were clearly heard in Lara's eardrum.

"Oh! Why am I here?" ask Lara slowly.

"Last night you groaned and your body was so hot. So I called Brother Devan to take you to the car and take you to the hospital" Yunita explained.

"I'm sorry I've troubled you both" Lara said.

"What do you mean Lara. We're both best friends so you don't have to be bad. And Brother Devan will help you Lara whatever your status," Yunita said with an anxious face.

"Thank you Yunita and Brother Devan!" Lara said along with her warm smile.

"Well! Sorry I wanted to ask you before. Who's the father of your fetus is Lara?"  yunita asked slowly.

Deg !

Lara was speechless hearing the question from Yeri's lips. Devan said nothing. He also wondered what had happened to Lara.

"I'm sorry. Right now I can't say it. Once again forgive me," Lara said with a sad face.

Yunita could not say anything more. He just fell silent and looked at Lara and Devan alternately. He knew his cousin was heartbroken. How not? The girl he loved was pregnant. And they don't know who Lara's father is.
