Talented Girl

Devan Effort

Zyva state is still not improving, his body temperature is also still up and down. Even so, Zyva still forced herself to eat even though her tongue felt very bitter. Miss Auryn and Dena take turns keeping Zyva in her room.

Tonight Miss Auryn decides to sleep in Zyva's room, but Zyva refuses to be accompanied. "Rest Zyva. I'll check back on you later. It's getting better soon." Miss Auryn kissed Zyva's forehead and grabbed her blanket.

Zyva tried to close her eyes, but the trouble she was currently having was constantly dancing in her eyes made it hard to sleep.

I had to save my father's assets and fight for my rights, which my mother had never loved me. But why have to be on very heavy terms?

I got married at the age of just a teenager. Just fall in love yet, when should I get married?

I am very comfortable being near Adrian. For me, he was my helper after my father died. But, I only consider him a big brother, nothing more than that. I can't imagine being married to a man I already consider to be my own brother. I was afraid that mother would use me and Brother Adrian so that I could not fight for my own rights.

But if I'm not married to Adrian, I don't really want to marry Devan either. The crazy guy who stole my first kiss. Hemmm, I never thought when Devan said he wanted to marry me.

What is really on his mind?

Does Devan love me?

Oh no-no. Don't think crazy Zyva. Where could he love me.

Zyva now got up and sat leaning against the headbord. The dizziness in his head was gone. Suddenly, Devan walks into Zyva's room with chicken porridge and warm tea.

"Is it better?" devan and Zyva asked just nod. Devan put down the tray he was carrying and held Zyva's forehead.

"The fever is down, you have to eat so that your body will recover" Devan said, taking warm tea and dibokan on Zyva.

Zyva accepted it and immediately gulped it down. The bitter taste in his tongue has been reduced to make the appetite that had been lost, now has returned there.

"Thanks ya Dev." said Zyva put back the glass she held onto the nightstand.

"Sama-sama, would you like me a bribe?" bargain Devan while spooning chicken porridge into Zyva's mouth. Without answering, Zyva immediately opened her mouth accepting Devan's bribe.

How happy Devan was when Zyva took her first bribe. But he did not want to look wrong in front of Zyva.

"You must be wondering why I want to marry you, right?" devan and Zyva asked, looking at Devan with eyes that wanted answers.

"First of all, you must immediately take over what is rightfully yours, Zyva. Don't waste time trying to get everything going the way you want. Second, you must miss the love of a mother, right? When we get married later, I make sure you get the love of a father and mother, and you have a storymate like Dena." explains Devan still continue to make excuses by still feeding Zyva.

Zyva now began to think, when he married Devan various benefits he would get.

Devan who saw Zyva was silent as she kept opening her mouth to accept her bribe only smiled with hope that Zyva would accept her to be her husband. Until the last mouthful, Zyva was still silent.

Devan leaves Zyva while bringing back a tray containing empty bowls and glasses. Zyva pulled Devan's shirt and called him.

"Devan, sit down for a minute. There's something I want to tell you." Pinta Zyva and Devan sit next to Zyva again.

"Thank you" said Zyva.

"No need to hesitate, Zyva. Oh yes, for my words, try to think carefully. One more thing, I'm a student with aspirations. Same asyou. Getting married doesn't mean ruining both of our ideals, does it?" devan and Zyva nodded.

Devan exits Zyva's room and closes it. Devan's words this time made Zyva very calm. He no longer had to worry about the problems that were happening to him at this time. Now Zyva began to close her eyes and fell asleep.

...***...

While on the other hand, Adrian returned to the Clovis Mansion because he complied with Pristina's request. Now Adrian is in the living room with his stepmom, and Clovis since the afternoon has not yet revealed the trunk of his nose.

"Adrian, your only hope is you, son. Help our family to get the school you've been taking care of, Adrian." Pinta Pristina made Adrian even more fed up with his stepmother.

"I've only been papa's lackey and mama, haven't I? You never thought of me as your son, but rather as a robot that you carelessly set up." replied Adrian annoyed.

"Adriaaan!!" shouted Pristina tight. "You should be grateful to be able to live with this kind of treasure because of your papa. Otherwise you'll definitely be a vagabond out there." said Pristina infuriated.

"OK mah, I say a big thank you to both of you" said Adrian who immediately moved and prepared to leave.

Shortly after Adrian's departure, Clovis arrived at the Mansion in a very exhausted condition. Pristina was very surprised to see the current condition of her husband. It is not usual for Clovis to come home late at night in such a disheveled state.

"What happened to you, baby?" pristina asked as she helped open her husband's tie.

"Adrian was not in the office and I was overwhelmed by the company" Clovis said, sitting on the couch and massaging his head.

"Don't ask him to marry your fucking real son. I really need that levy to run my company" Clovis said, leaving Pristina speechless.

If Adrian doesn't marry Zyva, how can he seize the assets of the school he's been managing? What if Clovis's wish to have the school fail?

"Just get another young man to marry your son, then force him to give up the assets that are supposed to be mine. You still have rights, don't you?" clovis asked Pristina confused what hatus answered.

"Well, I'm going to find a young man to marry my daughter immediately" said Pristina who then made a drink for Clovis.

Pristina continued to think about how to reclaim the school that had been taken care of. Her trusted lawyer turned out to betray her and turned to defend her late ex-husband and Zyva. Adrian also repeatedly refused to be the same as him. Especially at this time the Clovis company is in desperate need of Adrian performance.

"My head could explode thinking of this crazy thing." muttered Pristina as she brought the drink she had just made for her husband to the room.
