Naldo, who had been wearing a suit, was now in the room where the wedding vows were to be made. A multipurpose room in the Lawrence Mansion has been transformed into a room with a small altar. In addition, he also decorated it with several bouquets of flowers placed on the pillars at chest height.
One of his men walked over and whispered something in his ear.
“Sialannn!!! Let's do this process faster. I'm not gonna let him screw things up. Quickly bring the woman here,” orders Naldo out loud.
Before long, Grace who was already wearing a white dress had already walked into the room. Naldo was so fascinated by the beauty of Grace that had existed for a long time, but now she looks so beautiful and more mature, especially coupled with a very supportive makeup.
Grace stops right in front of Naldo, “Free him, then I will do the wedding with you.”
“Can't!” shout Naldo.
“Then I can't continue this marriage either,” said Grace bravely.
“You dare to fight me? You know what I can do? Do not let you regret,” said Naldo.
“I don't care anymore.”
“Really? Quickly drag him to the altar!” naldo shouted to some of his fruits.
“Let go of me!” But Grace's energy is not comparable to 2 Naldo's men who have brought him to the altar.
Naldo was whispering to his men to keep watch in front of the Mansion and the surroundings. She doesn't want her marriage to be interrupted by anything. Secretly Grace took out a sharp weapon from behind her dress.she smiled as she held it. With his gaze he ordered a priest who would lead his wedding vows to come down from the altar.
“Gracia!” naldo shouted as he saw Grace holding a knife that looked so sharp.
“What?” he said casually.
“What do you want to do?” tanya Naldo walked over.
“Stop there. You take a step forward, don't blame me if I do something crazy!” shouted Grace.
“Alright, I'll set him free. But I want you to take off your weapon,” Grace smiled faintly as if mocking Naldo.
“Do not rule me. You are nothing and will never be anyone in my life. I don't know what you mean marry me. If all you want is to become the owner of this plantation, without marrying me I will leave it to you. I don't care about it.”
“I love you, Gracia.”
Grace laughed mockingly, “don't make me laugh at all your cues. I'm no longer the little girl with whom you can lie. All the expressions of your love since long ago is just your way to have this plantation.”
Naldo clenched his hands looking at Grace who was completely unseen afraid of facing him. He walked back to Grace, but …
Jimbb jlebb …
“Am-bar everything you want, but not with me. My self is my own, I will never let o-rang as you go to get it up,” Grace fell on the red carpet and held her belly.
There were sounds of gunshots muttering and fighting from outside the room. Naldo who already knew that Gregory managed to escape from where he was held began to step away from the room through a special path to hide.
He could have fought back, but this time he had no weapon and he knew that his opponent had more skill than him. Naldo caught a glimpse of Grace who was already lying in pain in her stomach, then immediately left her.
The white dress was now stained with red patches. Grace's face began to turn pale due to the loss of a lot of blood. From behind his increasingly blurred vision, he saw someone running towards him.

Gregory held Grace's hand and faithfully stayed by her side. This woman before him had just completed the operation due to the puncture wound he had done.
“Why are you doing such a stupid thing? Believe that every time you have trouble, I will be there to help you. I won't let anything bad happen to you,” Gregory muttered as he continued to stroke the back of Grace's hand.
It's been a few hours after the surgery, but Grace hasn't been around. It made Gregory afraid and a little worried. Just as he was about to get out, a doctor and a nurse went inside to make regular visits and checks.
“He is not yet awake?” ask the Doctor
“Not yet. Is there something?” ask Gregory back.
Doctor returns to check on Grace, “wait a minute. In addition to the effects of drugs, maybe he is also exhausted so that it requires more rest than usual.”
Gregory nodded his head in understanding. He sat next to Grace's gurney. Before long, Gregory felt movement on Grace's fingers. He initially laid his head, now sat up straight and watched Grace.
Grace felt a soft elution in her hand. He looked up and saw Gregory there. Why her tears immediately shed.
“What's up? Does it still hurt?” gregory asked worried about Grace's injuries.
“You okay?” ask Grace. He could see there were still some bruises on Gregory's face which meant that the man had gotten some pretty strong blows.
“I'm fine, don't worry about me. Right now you just need to focus on your recovery.”
“M-sorry, I'm sorry. It's all because of me. Everything that happened to you was because of me. You better stay away, then you'll be fine,” Grace said.
Gregory pulled his chair closer toward Grace's gurney by keeping a woman's palm in front of him.
“Remember that you will no longer be able to stay away from me. We'll get married soon and I'll protect you.”
“T-but, what about Sister Naldo? How about Uncle Marco?” Grace could not imagine what would happen in the future if Gregory continued to be around her. It was not impossible if there would be something bad happening to him again.
“They will no longer interfere with your life. I promise.”
