Valerie holding Jovan's hand entered the hotel hall where the party was taking place. One more hand held his clutch bag, while Aiden stepped alone.
Valerie's partner should have been Aiden instead of Jovan, but this has happened since Jovan's arrival. Jovan forbids Aiden from being near Valerie, even demanding not to embrace Vale.
Aiden can only resign and follow the will of the man, as well as Vale.
Valerie looked at the entire lavish-looking decoration. This is an engagement, right? But why this fancy and unofficial? Rich people are different.
Valerie had been scared and a little traumatized by the parties of such distinguished people. Valerie had not calmed down in the car since, given the events that had happened to her.
Valerie thought about the number of cameras and journalists, she became the subject of their spotlight with her flash that was so annoying and uncomfortable.
However, there were no reporters at all at this party. Looks like both families agreed not to make this party public. Although news of the engagement has spread everywhere, this party does not allow any media coverage here.
Valerie stepped gracefully in her beautiful dress. A few glances were on Valerie who looked very attractive.
*about the shape of the dress is like gini yes, I tried to search on google do not meet the reference, so I draw in such a way. quite also.*
Valerie takes off her arms from Jovan and turns to embrace Aiden. Jovan initially wanted to protest, until his voice was held back when a woman came to Aiden with a happy look.
"Yet you came, too, Mr. Zachary." that woman is Anna. The female lead at this party.
Aiden smiled as well as Valerie joined in throwing a smile. Anna looks so pretty tonight. With natural makeup, her beautiful long dress plus her wavy blonde hair, made the woman look like a fairy.
Anna seemed to return Valerie's smile. "Miss, the show is about to start." said a waiter who came to Anna.
Anna nodded in understanding, then looked at Aiden back. "Happy party, excuse me." said Anna, who was met with respect by Aiden.
Anna stepped out of nowhere, leaving Aiden and Vale still silent on the spot.
Jovan with his bars, pulls Vale's body away from Aiden. Valerie shook her head with her brother's protective behavior.
Vale stared at the entire hall. He hasn't seen Sean anywhere since. Even when Anna greeted them, Sean was not with the woman.
Vale sits on the bench that has been available, along with Aiden and Jovan. An MC appears to be taking the stage signifying the event is about to begin.
The MC man opened the show so professionally. Invite some singers to sing on stage. Ask guests to enjoy the food available, until the core event begins.
Valerie accompanied Aiden standing right in front of a table full of food, picked up some food and placed it on the plate.
"Where's Brother Jovan?" vale asks Aiden who just realized the whereabouts of Jovan.
"Don't he come with us?" ask Aiden back. Vale shuddered his shoulders not knowing. Let it be, after all, Jovan is also a big boy no longer.
Vale stepped with Aiden back to their table to eat their food leisurely.
Until finally the core event awaited began. Suddenly Valerie linked her finger nervously. Does Sean know he's here? Vale was scared for a moment.
What if the guy finds out he's here? Valerie stared focused towards the stage, where the figures of Anna and Sean went up there after being summoned by the MC.
Valerie's eyes looked at Sean's handsome figure in a luxurious coat and his well-groomed hair. Sean was very handsome up there, making him envious of Anna's position. Valerie doesn't want to deny that she still loves Sean and wants him. Tell me she's a stupid woman! Yes, he was stupid for love.
Vale stared intently at how Anna and Sean exchanged rings. Guests were heard clapping loudly. The two couples threw smiles at their guests. Valerie turned her head quickly to turn her back to the stage, so that Sean could not notice her presence.
Without Vale noticing a drop of water dripping from his eye patch. Aiden looked at everything, how Vale endured this pain alone, while Sean smiled there.
"The next event is the dance. The dance opened with the couple's second appearance today. Mr. Romanov–M. Petrova please." said the MC.
The two couples stepped towards the dance hall and danced to the gentle accompaniment of the song.
The other guests began to dance to the song with smiles full of excitement. Aiden stared at Vale for a moment who tried to wipe his tear points with a tissue.
Then, extended her hand in front of Vale with a sweet smile. "May I have a honor to dancing with you?" ask Aiden like a noble.
Vale smiled faintly, gave a small nod and accepted Aiden's helping hand. Aiden pulled Valerie's hand slowly, leading the woman into the dance hall.
Aiden and Vale looked at each other softly stepping to the right and to the left as a soft song flowed. Aiden led Vale to spin, while Vale happily spun around with a small laugh. Vale believes the dance is very stiff.
Now both of Aiden's hands are on Vale's waist and both of Vale's hands are on Aiden's shoulders.
"Where is Brother Jovan?" vale asked suddenly but with a beautiful smile on his lips.
Aiden shakes his shoulders not knowing. "Perhaps, she was dancing with one of the women here" Aiden said with a teasing smile. Vale laughed amusedly at it and saw Aiden's expression.
"." (Excuse me.) Valerie and Aiden turned to the source of the voice, where a female servant, bowed her head respectfully. Valerie understood a little Russian, because it was her childhood language.
Vale and Aiden stopped their dance and looked at the waiter in confusion. "?" (What's up?) ask Aiden with a discussion about Russia that is so thick.
"х. ?" (Sir, someone wants to meet Miss Vasylchenko. Can Miss follow me?) ask the waiter. Valerie looked at Aiden confusedly. The woman's gaze wondered what was happening at this moment? Why did he have to be taken somewhere.
"?" (Who wants to meet him?) aiden asked with a hostile face.
"." (Lord Romanov.) The servant replied, which made Vale shocked to hear.
Vale looked at Aiden while shaking with a worried look. In Vale's mind, was Sean the one who wanted to meet him?
Vale turned to look for Anna and Sean who were still dancing in the middle of the Hall. What could Sean's father be?
Aiden looked at the waiter. "." (Tell your master, he doesn't want to meet her.) Aiden said.
"." (Sorry sir, but please cooperate with you.) Vale stared at the strapping man in a black suit and white shirt inside, suddenly standing behind them with a cold and flat face.
Aiden pulled Vale closer to him, while Vale stood up with a scared face.
"!" (Please follow me!) said the waiter, then stepped slowly like nothing happened in the middle of this party.
Valerie tightly clasped Aiden's hand, stepping hand in hand with the man with a worried face. Aiden and Valerie followed the maid, with the male bodyguard behind them. Take a leisurely walk past the people at the party so as not to attract attention.
On other side.
Anna's smile had not faded from her lips. The two men were still dancing with wisdom.
"Why did you arrive this morning? I'm afraid that half dead you didn't know from yesterday" Anna said.
"There's work." Sean replied briefly, concisely and clearly. Anna nodded in understanding.
"Oh yes, I said hello to Mr. Zachary. I thought he wouldn't come because his schedule was so congested. It turned out that he had come with the woman back then." Sean's body immediately stiffened and he stood up to stop their dance.
"Aiden? With which woman?" sean asked, grabbing Anna by the shoulder and gripping her tightly, as if he wanted to crush her. Sean's eyes were instantly sharp with a worried look on his face.
"Awss... Sean's pain." ringis Anna slowly.
"ANSWER!" sean's loud screams instantly caught the attention of the other guests and stared fixedly at Anna and Sean.
The guests whispered to each other looking at Sean's strange, arrogant behavior. Anna looked at Sean with a frightened face.
"Women in the cafeteria back then, the same woman in the restaurant that day as well" Anna replied in a trembling tone. He wants to cry.
Sean took off his grip, then ran off somewhere, leaving Anna's rigidly standing figure rubbing her shoulders while holding back tears amidst the crowd of guests.
Just one thing in Sean's brain right now. Valerie. That woman should be fine.
