"But Mr. Reid, are you sure the wedding is here?" Ask Elders.
"No problem."
"Baa... Good Mr."
Finally the sacred ritual to bury Magdalene alive to avoid misfortune, became a wedding themed mourning.
Everyone was dressed in all black, even the tomb hole was still intact was not closed, the Elder then recited prayers for the marriage of Reid and Magdalene.
"I can't believe this funeral ritual ended in marriage. Is this a bad sign?'" Whisper one of the people.
"Sst... If Mr. Reid hears, we'll lose our heads."
"I swear, I would rather be buried than marry a man I don't know." - Magdalene.
Reid looked at Magdalene coldly.
"Then pay off your husband's debt, and you can continue your circus debut in the grave alive." Said Reid coldly.
Magdalene gulped her saliva and bit her lips, she also held back her tears from going down, Magdalene tried not to intimidate him, but in any way she did not have all that power, even what he needed most now was only food.
After the Elder recited the prayer mantras, the Elder clapped his hand many times and took Reid's hand and Magdalene's hand, to unite.
"You are legal to be husband and wife." Said Elder.
"good. Come home. Qartel, take care of our wedding documents." Reid said walk first.
"Good sir." Qartel said.
Then Qartel looked towards the elders and the inhabitants.
"Please keep it a secret about this marriage. Anyone who leaks it will get a punishment never imagined." Qartel said coldly.
The villagers immediately shuddered with the savage gaze of Qartel, they instantly closed their mouths and closed their ears and eyes.
Magdalene walked slowly, but she was completely exhausted, and suddenly collapsed on the ground. Reid looked back, and Qartel helped.
Reid's indifference and indifference made everyone even more horrified, they could not imagine what Magdalene would get with the man, they could not imagine what Magdalene was going to do, especially the man who initially wanted to be single and very rude to women, now suddenly made Magdalena his wife.
Is after marriage the man willing to touch his wife, is it after marriage the man wants to share the bed? So what exactly is marriage for? Everyone was one minded when looking indifferently at Reid on Magdalene who fell to the ground. Reid's a crazy man, he's just gonna torture Magdalena. All those bad thoughts flashed through people's heads.
Qartel held Magdalene unconscious and would take her to the mansion with them.
The private plane had been waiting on their private runway, Magdalene was already lying on the bed in the plane.
"Sir..." Sapa Qartel stood before Reid who sat down and sipped champagne.
"Change the location, we're going to town A." Reid's orders.
"But why not stay here, sir?"
Reid looked through the small window of his private plane that had been airborne, white clouds like cotton looking very beautiful.
"She said she didn't want people to know that if there was a wedding, if it stayed in the city, the news would quickly spread, city X was the place where my enemies wanted to take me down. If he was in that castle, sooner or later there would be a lot of information, and in City A is the safest place, where all the territory is already mine." Said Reid then gulped down the champagne again.
Qartel understood and lowered his head.
*****
The day was getting hotter and time continued to run until then the sun was leaning more to drown, the twilight rays entered the room, the light shining on Magdalene's face.
Slowly he felt the heat on his face and tilted his head to the left side, his eyes which had thick plump fur twitching.
Little by little Magdalene came to her senses, and looked around her. His gaze was still blurry, yet he saw the drip hanging and swaying as he moved his hand.
Magdalene, opening her eyes wide, saw a very large room, with large and heavy curtains hanging down to the floor.
"Your mother is awake." Said a woman wearing a uniform.
"Di... Where am..." Magdalene felt her head still hurt.
"You're in Mr. Reid's mansion."
Magdalene's memory returns as she undergoes a forced marriage and in a state of mental distress suddenly falls unconscious.
"Be careful Miss, your body is still very weak. I'll call the other waiters to bring you some food."
Magdalene did not respond and indifferently, she thought more about her body which still felt very weak even though she was not a person who had a higher education, but she knew, the infusion attached was electrolytes for her body, she said, he knew he was severely dehydrated.
A few minutes later the servants came in carrying a few trolleys full of food and fruits, and then a middle-aged woman came along with them.
The middle-aged woman's uniform was different, despite having an unmissable age, but it still looked high insight, tenacious, and strong, let alone her movements were also elegant.
"Miss you should eat." Said the middle-aged woman who was wearing a black uniform with a skirt limited to latus.
"I'd rather die."
"Don't say that, Miss. Your grandmother will be sad."
Magdalene looked directly at the woman, she was not young anymore, but could be said to be very strong.
"I know your grandmother very well, she is a very kind and friendly person."
"Head maid, there's a message from Mr. Reid, if Miss is awake she said..."
The woman called the butler quickly gave the code for the waiter to stop.
Then the servants lowered their heads, and compactly withdrew.
"Eat..."
Magdalene hesitated, as the woman took some food and was about to feed her.
"I've thought of you as my own granddaughter, you know what your grandmother last told me? If he goes, I have to take care of you and bring you here, at least here you can work with a body that stays clean, instead of you working and continuing your grandmother's work in the fields and rice fields. But as it turns out, God has other plans, you come as an employer that I must serve with all my heart."
Magdalene held back her tears, as the woman's hands extended forward to feed her, Magdalene began to open her mouth in tears.
"Call me Deborah, when you need something." He said while feeding Magdalene.
Magdalene did not speak she just kept chewing slowly and daydreaming.
"Your grandmother used to be a noble."
Just then, Magdalene looked directly at Deborah, she stopped chewing and wished for further explanation.
Deborah went back to feed Magdalene and continued her sentence.
"Yet your grandmother chose to live with the man she loved so much, her family vehemently opposed."
Magdalene breathed and wiped her tears.
"Both my parents and my grandmother never told me that even until the end of their lives."
"That's because they don't want to open old wounds and don't want you to be sad, I used to be a loyal servant of your grandmother's family, when I was young, your grandmother is so beautiful, and I see her inside you. I'm happy to serve your grandmother because she's different from the other nobles."
Magdalene then took the plate from Deborah's hand and then ate by herself voraciously.
Seeing the spirit and earnestness of Magdalene wanting to stay alive made Deborah smile.
"You have to eat a lot, I have something to take care of." Deborah stroked Magdalene's back.
"If you need me, there's a servant's notebook here." Deborah said and took out the bouki from the drawer.
Then Deborah left, while Magdalene ate with tears flowing, she had to stay strong, she knew her grandmother would be angry and sad if she saw it destroyed and did not even want to live.
Magdalene remembers how her grandmother struggled to keep her alive.
Magdalene remembers how her grandmother always carried her so she wouldn't get tired.
"grandmother..." Magdalene stopped eating.
Magdalene's mouth was full of food, and she cried as a result, and her hands beat her in the chest because the food stuck in her chest made her tight. Magdalene wept and wept.
"Whatever happens, I will survive. Grandma, I promise you I won't lose to anyone, I won't be a weak girl who can easily be beaten by anyone, I will fight them, I will fight them, I'm not gonna fall into the same hole again, that jerk who tricked us, he deserves to die, and luckily he dies, otherwise, I'll kill him myself and stain my hands with his blood."
