INCESTUOUS MARRIAGE (Blood Marriage)
CHAPTER 08 - INCESTUOUS MARRIAGE

IM.08 HOPEFULLY WE WILL FIND MADAM SOON

ALBERT MA'S

The white sand that stretched wide, the blue sea with the pounding of light waves, the gentle sea breeze, as well as the sound of crows flying around the island, made me recall some memories in the past. Where at that time my life began to be filled by the figure of stubborn women and funny boys who mean a lot in my life. It wasn't easy for me to accept the presence of Allura Gibson and Adrian Ma back then. But as time went on, I was slowly able to accept them both as members of my family and give my whole heart love.

My deep love for my wife and son made me feel devastated when I lost them both. Although I lost my parents in a way that was sad enough to make me fall, but the loss of children and wives feels so different. Not only did I feel the loss of my loved ones, but I also lost my soulmate whom I loved so much. Although the return of Adrian Ma made me feel happy, but without Allura Gibson beside me made my life feel empty.

It's been over a month since I've been looking for the whereabouts of Allura Gibson who left without any news. But until now my people have not found its existence. If only time could be turned back, I would definitely correct all the mistakes I have made so far. I'll treat him well. I would do anything to make her happy without hurting her feelings. And I will not speak harsh words when I am angry with him that make his heart hurt and leave my life. My uncontrollable anger made Allura Gibson leave me and not come back.

Right now I miss the Allura Gibson that I love so much. Unstoppable longing for him, made me go to a place that was a favorite place of both of us in the past. A fairly large private island that I have, which is now in the middle of which has been built a luxurious villa that will be our weekend residence and a place to spend our old age later. Now our dream residence has stood firmly in the middle of the island. But Allura Gibson, who promised me to spend her old age with me here, has left and never returned.

In addition to being used as a weekend residence and a place to spend old age, I who feel indebted to Allura Gibson will make this villa as a place for our wedding party. As long as we were married, we had never held a party to formalize our several-year-old marriage to the crowd. There was only a marriage book that had been registered at the civil affairs bureau office when I was unconscious. Making me who wants to make her happy, has planned everything carefully in advance without her knowledge.

I've bought her the wedding ring that Allura Gibson has always dreamed of. Because all this time we both only wore wedding rings that were once prepared by my sister Freya Xander, which was not our choice. In addition, I have also prepared a wedding dress for her that is specially designed by famous designers. And various things related to our dream wedding party are also arranged in such a way. Unfortunately when all is prepared and will be realized, the bride disappears as if swallowed by the earth.

I still think about a few things about Allura Gibson. I still remember so many of our plans and dreams for an unrealized future. I also remember our conversation one night before the disappearance of Adrian Ma. At that time we both planned to do a pregnancy program to get a daughter. Given our last wish, it made me smile bitterly. Do I have to wait for Allura Gibson to return? Or do I have to bury all my dreams with him that have ever been said?

As I was deep in thought and standing alone on the shore staring at the vast expanse of the ocean, I suddenly heard the voice of Adrian Ma calling out to me, "Dad... Dad... Dad..."

I spontaneously turned to the direction from which the voice came. Adrian Ma was running towards me with a starfish in his hand. Smiling at him I asked, "What's wrong, honey?"

"See this! I found a starfish. Isn't this pretty, Dad?" Adrian Ma asked me while raising one of his hands to show the starfish in his hand.

"Yes, very pretty. Do you like this beach, Adrian?"

"Yes, Dad. I really like it. If Mommy comes home later, can we bring Mommy here, Dad?"

"Yes, of course. We'll be back here when Mommy gets home. We'll play together until you're tired."

"Dad, is Mommy coming home soon? Why did Mommy travel on business for so long?"

"Why indeed? Do you miss Mommy?"

"Hu 'u... I miss Mommy a lot. Does Mommy miss us too, Dad?"

"of course. Mommy misses us as much as we miss her."

"Dad, can I collect the starfish and bring it home?"

"Can. Why do you suddenly want to collect starfish, Adrian?"

"I think the starfish is very pretty. Like Mommy Allura's beautiful."

Ever since he drowned a month ago on the beach, Adrian Ma has been traumatized. Although he was not afraid of sea water, but the trauma he experienced made him often experience nightmares during sleep. He was often delirious like someone who was drowning and almost gave up. Making the doctor who handled it, advised me to always pay attention to him and not let him experience various pressures in his life. If only I had told him what really happened, Adrian Ma would have been hurt. It was even possible that her mental health would be compromised if she found out that the Mommy Allura she loved so much went missing over a month ago. And I don't want that to happen.

"It's late, Adrian. You should take a shower and clean your body that's wet from the sea."

"Dad, I'm not satisfied playing. Can I play a little while longer."

I took a deep breath and replied, "All right. Daddy's gonna give you another half an hour."

"Thank you, Dad. I'll shower and change after the time Daddy gives me runs out."

Adrian Ma smiled warmly for a moment at me who was standing looking at him. Then he stepped back away from me and played sea water accompanied by a babysitter who had been taking care of him for the last few years. Hearing him talk about his mommy made me miss Allura Gibson even more. So that the powerless me restrained the sorrow in my heart, unconsciously shedding tears while continuing to look straight ahead without anyone knowing.

As I was getting back into my own thinking, Cassey suddenly came to me in a hasty step. It made me, who noticed his arrival, turn to him and ask, "Cassey, why did you come here? Isn't it a holiday today? Are there any problems in the work?"

"Sorry, Sir. If my arrival this afternoon bothers you a little. I didn't come here to talk about work. But I came here to tell you that the Wedding Organizer repeatedly called me. Because I didn't know what to answer and do, so I decided to find you here."

"What does the Wedding Organizer say, Cassey?"

Cassey took a deep breath and replied, "Master, your wedding with the Madam is scheduled for next week. Since it was only a week away, the Wedding Organizer wanted to confirm a few things about its preparation. I know, the lady hasn't returned yet. So when they asked me about the wedding, I didn't know what to answer. Will the preparations be continued or delayed until the Madam returns, sir?"

I was silent for a moment thinking about what to do. Given the wedding will be held next week, surely the Wedding Organizer has done a lot of preparation. A little while later I replied, "Let them do all the preparations as they should. But don't send me an invitation before I say. Let's just hope we find Madam soon and bring her back home."

"Good, Sir. Then excuse me first."

"En..." I nodded my head to let him go.

VIOLETTA WINSTON

After bringing Adrian Ma in good condition to Albert Ma, my relationship with him that had stretched is now back to improve. Plus Albert Ma who never again forbade me to meet him, as well as the absence of Allura Gibson by his side, made me feel free to meet him whenever I wanted. As I did today, on this unproductive weekend. I went to follow him to his own private island that he had told me about first after knowing where his current situation was through social media.

I, who had just arrived at his private island, immediately parked my car in the available parking area. At the same time, I saw Cassey walking from the direction of the large building in the middle of the island to the parking area where my car is currently located. I want to greet him kindly when he and I cross paths with each other later. But he who suddenly stopped his steps in the middle of the journey, made me who now walked towards him continue to pay attention to him. He is currently answering the phone seriously while standing his back to the perkir area. So that I who was about to pass by, accidentally heard the conversation from a distance.

"What's? Madam Ma has been found?"

Hearing Cassey mention Allura Gibson's name while talking to the person across the phone, my heart beat so fast that it stopped my steps. I'm not just worried that everyone who's looking for Allura Gibson will find out where she is. But I am also worried that the woman who has taken my happiness will return to Singapore and live happily with her family. Making me who didn't want that to happen, chose to stay standing still and eavesdropping from behind to know all of Cassey's talk.

"Huffpft... I'm really relieved to hear the good news from you, bro. After a long search for it, we finally found a bright spot. So, where is Madam Ma now? Whahuh? Bhutanese? Far away... Didn't we find out from the beginning whether the Madam is out of the country or not? But we didn't find him. So how can the madam go abroad without being known to others?... Whahuh? Change their identity?... Is she still in Bhutan, Bro?... Alright. Thanks for the information. It just so happens that I'm still on Mr. Ma's island. I'll tell him right away. Again, thank you."

My heart was beating faster after hearing all of Cassey's conversations with the person across the phone. Without thinking much, I called him who was about to step back towards the building in the middle of the island where Albert Ma is currently. "Cassey's... Miss Cassey... Wait." Wait."

"Yes. What's the matter, Miss Violet?" He turned his body around while asking me with a curious face.
