Xavier sat up with his chin propped up inside his study at the N Corp building. His mind was now filled with debate between Xiever and Isabelle just a moment ago.
"Well, you're gonna marry Giselle, like it or not!" he said it was full of emphasis.
"What?!" Vier looked at Isabelle with a surprised look. He did not believe what he heard. "Wait, what's going on? What did Mom and Ver argue about?" Vier tried to clarify the situation.
"Mama has already betrothed Ver to Giselle, so that our company can rise again. But, this brother of yours continues to defy and insist on his decision."
"But why should I? Why not just Vier?"
"What?" Vier looked at his brother with a face of disbelief.
"You're older, and you're the one who's gonna lead the company!" hatch Isabelle.
"Ma, what you're doing is not right! Why do you have to do this just to get the company back on its feet?" Vier commented, however, agreeing with Ver. It is not the right way to revive their company with a matchmaking between the owners of one company with another.
"You don't have to interfere in this, all you need to do is help mama get Ver to accept this matchmaking." Isabelle looked at Vier.
"I don't want to! No matter how hard you force me, I don't want to!" Ver insists.
"In two weeks time! Mama's gonna get everything ready in two weeks."
Vier let out a long sigh, he massaged his forehead slowly. Thinking about their argument, gives Vier a headache.

"See you tomorrow." Jenia waved her hand at Aphrodite when she finally found the bus heading towards her house.
"See you later" said Aphrodite, smiling and waving back at him.
Slowly the bus passed by leaving where Aphrodite was.
Aphrodite was silent on her own, the tiredness that plagued her body made her unable to stand for long. I don't know why this afternoon was so hot.
"It seems like I'd rather find a taxi than wait for a bus." Aphrodite's memonolog, her eyes staring at the clock on her phone.
Aphrodite turned to find an empty taxi passing by and immediately asked the driver to drive her home once she found the taxi she was looking for.
Silent. Not a word came from each other's lips. The driver was staring at the street, while Aphrodite was staring out the window. His mind continued to be filled with a feeling of dilemma that was engulfing him.
Aphrodite tried to find a way to find the right time to be able to speak truthfully to Vier about what he is going through right now. With her son, of course, she should also know this news.
Aphrodite sighed, repeatedly thinking about it. Many times he did not think that this had really happened to him.
After a few minutes on the way, the driver stopped right in front of his house.
Brakk!
A loud voice sounded from the direction of his home. Aphrodite flinched, conscious of her daydreams and turned spontaneously toward her.
