The Secretary For Life

Because I Love You

" No need to sulk, I have something for you" Arga said, handing over two paper bags to Azzura and Naina.

" What is this?" Naina asked while opening the paper bag and the contents turned out to be a perfume.

" thank you. What did you get Ra?" naina.

" Hmmmm this," Azzura said as she showed Naina a novel called Dream of the Red Chamber.

" I hope you like it" said Arga.

" Of course we like it a lot, thanks Arga, you always know what we want" Azzura replied.

" Yes because I am your best friend" Arga said, hugging her two best friends, and suddenly.

" Keep your body away from my wife!" Said Devan who just came with Martin, immediately made the three friends surprised.

" Wife?"

" Yes, Zura is my wife, so do not carelessly hug her," Devan said with a hostile face, pulling Azzura closer to her.

" Oh so this is your husband, Ra? Does he seem very possessive?" Reply Arga.

" Include me Arga, Zura and Naina's best friend. And soon I will be Zura's sister-in-law and you, sir...." Said Arga again while extending her hand. Devan looks shocked when he finds out that he is the future sister-in-law of Azzura.

" Devan," Devan replied briefly.

" I told you to rest at home, why are you here?" Devan asked Azzura.

" I'm bored at home" Azzura replied.

" Why not call me when you're bored?" Devan's question made Azzura astonished.

" For what?" Ask Azzura.

" Yes, if Miss calls Devan, she can take you for a walk. To reduce boredom, don't you think, Dev?" Said Martin.

" Ehhmmm yeah.. Martin is right" said Devan.

" Let's go now, then" Devan said.

" Aren't you busy today?" Reply Azzura.

" Calm Miss Zura, all let me handle it. Just enjoy today" replied Martin.

" but...." Azzura was actually reluctant to go with Devan. He wanted to keep his distance from Devan.

" Once it is, let's walk. I'm sure your two best friends wouldn't mind if you left them" Devan said.

" Of course we don't mind, don't we?"

" Yes Naina was right, have fun there," said Arga.

Hearing all that Azzura inevitably follows Devan's words, to walk with him. Because if you refuse it will definitely make the two friends suspicious, if their current relationship is not okay.

" Please excuse me, then" Devan said shortly before leaving the place with Azzura.

" It looks like Zura's husband loves Zura very much" Arga said.

" Yes, looking at it is like that. After what Zura has been through all this time, I just hope this time Zura can be really happy with her husband" Naina replied.

" You're right, he's suffered a lot" Arga said .

" Oh yeah, Mr Martin want what message?" Naina asked when she realized that Martin was still there.

" As always, Miss," replied Martin.

" Well wait a minute" said Naina then left Martin with Arga.

" Martin, Devan's assistant and Miss Zura's office mate. As well as regular customers of this cafe," Martin replied. The two of them then broke into a conversation together.

While in the car, Azzura and Devan both choose to silence. Azzura was still upset and astonished by Devan's attitude. While Devan was confused to start talking from where with Azzura.

" Don't get close to the guy, I don't like it" Devan said.

" That guy? Arga meant it?"

" Yes who else."

" Why?"

" Yes because you are my wife, so you must not be close to Arga or any man other than me" Devan said.

" Wife? What kind of wife? Never mind Dev, don't think I'm a real wife because our marriage is just a game. In a matter of months it will also be over," Azzura replied with a smile.

" Our marriage won't end at any time" Devan replied.

" You mean, you're gonna extend our marriage contract? I'm sorry I can't, I also want to live a normal life. Want a real marriage, want a family, want a husband who loves me, not just a wife on paper" Azzura replied.

" Let's make our marriage a real marriage, forget the contract" Devan replied.

" I'm sorry I can't" Azzura said.

" Why?"

" Since there is still another woman in your heart, it is impossible that we will be able to establish a good household relationship" Azzura replied as she turned her face away. Devan chose to pull over his car, he wanted to have a serious talk with Azzura.

" If that woman you're referring to is Naila, you're wrong. She is no longer in my heart right now, and you are the only woman who fills my heart. I don't know since when, I don't know myself, which is clear I've fallen in love with you Azzura" Devan said, clasping Azzura's hand.

" If you think the reason I don't want to talk to Naila is because I still love her it's wrong. I was so disappointed in her, I used to love her but after she betrayed me, that love turned to hate. We have been in a relationship for a long time, and we plan to get married. But it turns out she's not a good woman to me, she's cheating on me with my own cousin, Riko. Though he knew that my relationship with Riko was never good, even we were already like enemies."

" Not only that, Naila almost destroyed my company. He steals the company's important data and is given to Riko. Fortunately, Carissa could finish well. That's why I hate him because he not only destroyed me but also my family" Devan explained, making Azzura now understand why up until now Devan did not want to meet or talk to Naila.

" I'm sorry, I've misunderstood you" Azzura said.

" You're not wrong, if I told you all this from the beginning you wouldn't be jealous" Devan replied.

" Who's jealous?"

" Someone who said last night that she expected my heart" Devan said, bringing Azzura shame.

" So are you now willing to build a household and become my real wife, Miss Azzura?" Devan asked in a nod by Azzura.

" Thank you" Devan said, hugging Azzura.

" I'm sorry if I've been aware of my feelings for you for so long, sorry to keep you waiting" Devan said.

" Which feeling?"

" The feeling that is here," Devan said as he placed Azzura's hand on his chest.

" You know when you saw your closeness with this man, it felt like I wanted to bury him alive" Devan said, making Azzura laugh.

" Why are you so sadistic. She's Manda's future husband, my sister. If you bury him alive, what about the fate of my sister's marriage. Free dong I marry you if their marriage fails," Azzura replied.

" I don't care, want her in-laws, your best friend, or whatever it is, which obviously I don't like you being close to other men. You are only mine so you can only be close to me" Devan said.

" Possessive," Azzura replied.

" Cause I Love you" Devan said, clasping Azzura's hand and kissing her. Making Azzura smile happily, it turns out his love does not clap one hand.
