Aletaa and Eric rushed down to the lower floor, seeing that there was already a grandfather and Monica who had been waiting for them to sit on the sofa which was close to the stairs.
With dazzling clothes, Aletaa walked with her beautiful bow. The girl also slightly rubbed her chest as if to tell everyone that the expensive gem was coiled around her neck.
Monica looked at Aletaa with annoyance, the sight this morning made her hurt, especially now that Aletaa was wearing clothes and jewelry belonging to her late mother Eric. Monica's body temperature suddenly rose to a temperature of 100°c because it was upset to see that.
Hareudang...
Heat...
"This is unfair!. Everything Aletaa got should have been me. The love of Eric, the love of my grandfather, and the relics of my stepmother should also be me who got it all." Inner Monica unceasingly scolded and scolded Aletaa.
"Great grandchildren and son-in-law have come, you look very suitable." said grandfather.
Aletaa smiled shyly. "Thank you grandpa." said the girl.
Today Aletaa looked different, no matter what possessed her, but she was really very charming today. Every word he spoke sounded softer than usual. The mischievous girl who usually acted childishly is now transformed into a very graceful adult woman.
"By the way Grandpa asked us to wear party clothes, where are we going to cake?, is there going to be a company party?" asked the girl.
Eric and Aletaa immediately sat in a long chair that was enough for some people.
"It's not an ordinary party, it's a very important party. All our clients from abroad will be here. So we will make a banquet so that everyone can get together and talk together about the design and project plans that will be made by the company." said grandfather.
Eric was shocked. "Why is Grandpa telling me now?, how are we going to organize the party if it's time to go this way" Eric said frantically.
"Not worry about that. Grandfather had already hired hotel V to be in charge of organizing his party. All our clients will stay there too." said grandfather.
"Why should I go with the cake?" Ask Aletaa. The girl looked confused, she was just like Eric's shadow. Aletaa is not a legal wife by country and has not been made public by the man. So what's the point if he goes to a party but without an identity and a confession.
"You have to join Aletaa, this is an important moment for you that will be a valuable lesson for the future" said grandfather.
In a moment of silence, Eric seems to be picking up the call on the phone while grandfather is busy with his morning newspaper.
There was only Aletaa who was still daydreaming and Monica who kept looking at him in annoyance.
"Grandfather, there is no I who have had many years of experience in this field, why should Aletaa go as well?, where does he understand the world of business, maybe he will mess up the reputation of our company." monica opened the conversation.
Aletaa who heard it gasped, she was not a stupid and idiot girl who did not understand the subtle blasphemies that Monica always threw. Every word that came out of Monica's lips always implied a deep meaning. Aletaa understood that Monica was currently underestimating him.
"Let Aletaa learn. It's okay because this was his first experience. Eric and you will help him anyway, won't you?." said grandfather.
Monica seemed to press her lips forcefully. "Yes, I'll help her while I can."
Instantly things became quiet. "Let's go, David went to V's hotel first to see his preparations." Eric asked after turning off the phone call.
Aletaa appears to rise up and walk towards Eric and follow the man's steps, followed by Monica who also runs right behind Aletaa.
"Even if I can't keep you out of Eric's life, but with this important banquet, you're sure to lose to Aletaa, you're just going to be a bitch to Eric. And after that Eric's gonna take you and let me take your place next to him and his heart." - Inner Monica.
Hate blinded Monica's eyes, a grenade she had started to launch to destroy Aletaa.
