The Ruler's Love Contract

Meet and Greet

In the backyard of a large family home...

Ara was introduced to all of Rain's foster siblings. He seemed polite to reply to the hand of the Rain brothers with a smile while putting his hands on his chest. Rain was also seen meeting with his brothers here. Ara faithfully accompanied him on the side.

Soon Nick came to Rain. He stood in front of a couple who looked so friendly. Nick looks different, not as usual. He often observes Ara without Ara's own knowledge.

"Not seen each other in a long time, Rain." Nick greeted while holding his wine glass.

"How are you?" ask Rain so briefly to Nick.

Nick looked at Ara. "You married didn't invite us. Like not to assume it," he said, as cornered.

Ara was a little awkward when she was in this situation. The atmosphere around changed so fast when Nick came over. The face of her husband is not good to see. My husband doesn't like Nick.

"I'm reluctant to invite because you're definitely not coming." Rain replied to Nick.

Nick smiled. He turned back to Ara. "Welcome, Miss. Looks like we've met before." Nick greeted Ara.

Rain doesn't like the way Nick greets his wife. He was annoyed by the last words uttered by Nick.

He wants to make my heart hot with his words?

Rain then hugged his wife's hip in front of Nick. "Honey, let's taste the fruit salad that's there." Rain pointed to the dish on the table that was on the backyard terrace of the house.

Ara nodded as well. She did not reject her husband's invitation. At that moment Ara lowered her head to Nick, saying goodbye. Rain just left Nick. He doesn't want to talk more.

The thing that happened was of course seen by Byrne and Owdie who were sitting on the garden chair at the end there. Both of them looked at Rain and Nick earlier. They look at each other.

"It seems like what Rain said has a point." Byrne opened the conversation.

"Nick must have been mistaken for Rain's wedding." Owdie added.

"Since childhood both compete for the affection of grandma. And now they're going to compete for what else? Grandma's not around." Byrne was confused himself.

"Surely Nick will not accept if the throne of the organization falls into the hands of Rain. Nick feels he's grandpa's granddaughter." Owdie gulped down his wine glass.

"I don't think Rain has any ambition to take the throne either. Do you remember what he said? All this time he only carried out the duties of grandfather because of return of gratitude. No more than that."

"Huh .. I don't know. I hope not to bother with this matter with Ara. Poor him. Ara didn't know anything in the first place." Owdie looks worried about Ara.

"It looks like we have to do something to help Rain" Byrne said.

"What?" ask Owdie. At once Byrne whispered to him. Owdie nodded as well. "Okay, I agree." They then fight a fist sign of agreeing on the plan to be executed.

This afternoon in the backyard of the mansion was very crowded filled with the thirteen grandchildren of the ruler of the world. Some of them also bring their partners. However, only Rain was officially married. The others are still in the time of introduction. And that's why Nick is worried about Rain's current status. He was afraid that what should have been his instead fell into Rain's hands.

Since childhood Nick and Rain have been competing for Grandma Sam's affection. After the departure of the grandmother, apparently the aura of competition was still there and could not be lost. Now that Nick doesn't want to be surpassed by Rain, he'll figure out a way to get rid of Rain. Somehow, but one thing is certain Nick wants the throne of the organization to fall into his hands. Not into Rain's hands.

Her night...

Dinner was served by manshion's servant Sam. On the large dining table there is a wide variety of super luxurious dishes that certainly do not need to doubt the taste. The crystal glasses adorned each side of the dining table. Adding to the luxurious impression of dinner held once a year.

Some cutlery such as spoons, forks and knives have also been served next to dishes that are left empty. Finally, the grandfather asked the servant to pour wine for his thirteen grandchildren.

Ara herself looked down from earlier. He sat next to Rain who was facing Nick directly opposite him. And for some reason, Ara felt something strange about Nick. He did not want to see the man sitting opposite him.

Why do I feel bad when I see it, huh?

Ara felt like there was something strange about that guy named Nick. Rain turned to his wife who had been silent. He then looked at Nick who was busy taking the appetizer. Rain also felt that something had happened to his wife. However, he had not dared to take action for fear of missteps. Moreover, Nick did nothing to his wife, just sitting opposite him.

My wife's feelings are so sensitive. What exactly is he feeling?

Rain then took Ara's wine glass, and he drank it. At that moment Ara turned to her husband. Rain smiled at his wife. Instantly Ara pinched Rain's thigh from under the dining table. At that time Rain also endured the pain.

Rain brought his face closer to Ara's ears. "Darling, not here. It's a lot of people." Rain reminded Ara not to do something that provoked her desire.

"Basic!"

Ara also grumbled while putting on her pouting face. At that time Rain smiled at the look on his wife's face. Under the dining table he held Ara's hand tightly. Rain loved Ara.

"Please eat it." The grandfather asked everyone present to eat the dish.

Rain swiftly picked up Ara's appetizer. He did not shyly show affection in front of all his brothers. However, it seems Nick does not like Rain's friendly attitude towards Ara. Not because of jealousy, but because of jealousy. He felt Rain's current status was so dangerous to his position in the organization.

"Darling, why?" Suddenly, Ara closed her mouth.

"I want to go to the toilet." Ara quickly picked up the tissue, and she stood up. "Sorry, everyone." He walked quickly to the toilet of this house.

"Ara, wait!" Rain quickly chased after her. At that moment all present seemed to be wondering.

"Hey, could it be that the rain has already sprouted a seed?" chirp one of Rain's brothers.

"That's possible. He's quick to act" chirped another brother Rain.

Everyone present laughed.

"Shut up! Eat up!" Suddenly grandfather Rain asked all his grandchildren to stop laughing.

All of Sam's grandchildren were silent. They then continued their dinner. Sam seemed to ignore what happened to Rain's wife. He didn't care and saw it.
