Chapter 345 - Before Second Marriage

Elsa woke up early in the morning and stole all the car keys owned by Carlos. She hid the key so that her husband failed to come to church to marry Vania. The woman kept all the keys under the flowerpot then returned to the guest room and pretended to sleep because since last night she was not in the same room with her husband.

In his room, Carlos had just woken up and glanced to the side. 'Turns out she's really mad and doesn't want to be with me anymore,' he thought.

Carlos got out of bed and glanced at the clock on the wall which showed 06:20 am. He rushed out of bed and walked to the bathroom to wash his face. After that, he looked for Elsa to several rooms in his luxurious house and found her in the guest room.

"Honey," Carlos called.

Elsa was still pretending to sleep with her back to Carlos.

Carlos sighed then approached Elsa and sat on the edge of the bed. "Today I will marry Vania just to be responsible. Please stop being childish because I can't avoid this marriage," he said.

Elsa is still silent but her heart hurts again because Carlos still can't cancel the wedding. Her tears fell again, her body began to move a little because she couldn't stop crying. Finally, the woman stopped playing and looked at her husband who was looking down.

"You said I was childish. You don't know how much pain I felt... I was just happy because we were going to have a baby. Not even a day I feel that happiness, you hurt me," said Elsa while crying.

"Yes, I know. I was wrong and I will atone for my mistakes by putting you first. I reiterate once again, I married her just for the sake of responsibility!" Carlos said seriously. .he approached Elsa and gently wiped her tears. "I beg you. Be patient with this situation. I can't stand it if we keep fighting."

"I don't know... It hurts so much. Today is the most painful day for me...I never imagined a moment like this," said Elsa, lying back down and her back to Carlos. She hugged the pillow, crying bitterly at her fate. Hem, did she forget that she was once a grabber for someone's husband?

Not wanting to continue arguing with Elsa, Carlos left the room and rushed to his room to get ready because the wedding would take place around 08:30 in the morning.

When Carlos was gone, Elsa glanced at the door with a sharp look. ."You'll be late to marry her... But if you can still marry her, I won't let her live peacefully on top of my misery!" She said angrily.

In the apartment.....Vania has been picked up by Max to go to a hotel near the church where she will hold her wedding ceremony with Carlos. In the hotel, there was already a special bridal room for her where there were several members of the Carlos family and the make-up artist who would make her look beautiful in her wedding dress.

Currently, Vania is sitting on a dressing table chair in a metallic hotel room. she looked at her reflection in the mirror, still dressed in her normal clothes and her face untouched by make-up. She was accompanied by a middle-aged woman and a woman in her 30s who would do her makeup.

"I'm Margareth, Carlos' aunt," said the middle-aged woman while standing behind Vania who was waiting for make-up.

Vania just nodded and smiled awkwardly at Margareth's reflection in the mirror.

"You will be Carlos' second wife. Don't you feel regret? However, you are very beautiful and young. Carlos is over 30 years old and he is such an asshole." Margareth looked at Vania pityingly.

"If God blesses, I will not regret it. Whatever the risk, I have thought about it," said Vania in a soft voice.

"Hopefully he can be fair even though Elsa is very against this marriage," said Margareth.

Vania just nodded and in, her heart she prayed for Carlos' sincere affection. At that moment, the make-up artist started doing her makeup while Margareth waited by sitting on a gray sofa complete with a table where some food and drinks were served.

Alex walked to Haikal's room while matching his gray tie to the suit he was wearing. He looks so charming with a neatly shaved beard and combing his haircut in a haircut style.

"Good morning, Anna," said Alex when he arrived at the room and saw Anna making the bed where she was sleeping.

"Eh, good morning, Sir," Anna said awkwardly.

Alex smiled at the nervous Anna. .lhe turned to the cot and saw Haikal who was sleeping so soundly on his side while hugging a bolster with a picture of an animated superhero.

"Usually at this hour he's awake, but now he's still very sound," he said.

"Maybe he's tired, sir," said Anmakingo was now taking clothes for Haikal to wear after bathing.

"Yes. While he's still sleeping, please make me coffee. I'll wait here," Alex exthen sat on the edge of the bed.

Anna rushed out of the room to the kitchen where there was Sinta who was cooking some breakfast menus. She made coffee as she thought about what answer she would give Alex if he was still discussing wanting to...marry her.

"Anna...Last night I saw you in the garden beside the house with Mr. Alex. It's really bad that he invites you to talk one-on-one there," said Sinta in surprise. "Is he talking about our salary, or wants to move to another bigger house or..."

"He proposed to me," Anna said as she stirred the coffee she had brewed water.

"Gosh?" Sinta was very surprised.

"I wonder why he suddenly proposed to me. This feels very strange," said Anna angrily.

"Then you accept or not?" asked Sinta again.

"I haven't answered yet. I've been uncomfortable since the proposal. Just looking at his face I don't dare. He's smiling at me more and more watching me..."

"Did you like it?" asked Sinta while placing the toasted sandwich on a white square plate.

"I don't know... But actually... If I'm being honest, I couldn't bear to leave him when he was shot and then abandoned by Elsa..from that day on I couldn't help but care for him," said Anna with a bend in her face.

"That means you have feelings for him." Sinta immediately guessed and drew her conclusions.

"I don't know... but I feel like I don't deserve him. I'm just a babysitter while his ex-wife is a model. My class is very low." Anna breathed heavily, starting to despair of keeping eye contact with Alex.

"You are much better than Mrs. Elsa. She is a traitor, loves to spit charms everywhere...Of course, Mr. Alex is more interested in you, who has taken care of Haikal since he was a child," said Sinta, convincing Anna not to feel inferior.

"In my opinion, just accept the proposal...I'm sure Mr. Alex won't play with you because this is the third time he's married and now he's changed for the better."
