Loving You 2: The Substitute
Self Realizing

Airin was wearing his servant uniform, and preparing for work, the mansion had been conjured into a luxurious hall the great master's 58th birthday this year was very lively, and the rumor that Airin heard from the servant that there was a special announcement from their great master and it would be the most beautiful gift of the great lord.

"What happened to you, Airin?" some of the servants let a small glance at him "Did Mr. Alden have thrown you away, until you returned to being a servant.."

Airin sighed she did not respond to their words until their little laughter disappeared as their bodies moved away from Airin.

Airin rubbed her skirt once more and tidied her hair then stepped her feet into the party hall.

Airin was in charge of guarding and serving food and drinks on the table, Alden had no idea he was coming, what would happen if Alden saw him, but he also could not ignore his job as a servant of the Barnes family, even the great mistress who asked for it herself.

"You're airy here?" The butler asked in surprise, didn't Airin now only work for young master Alden.

"Yes chief, I asked the madam to come help" feeling a little astonished but the butler only muttered and nodded.

The party has already started, the candle blow event and the gift offering from the closest person to the Great Lord has been carried out.

Airin looked down when he saw himself wearing servant clothes while in front there Alden was wearing expensive stellan and looked unreachable, whether the road would indeed stretch that far..

"Waterin..?" as he was pensive, Airin faintly heard a voice calling out to him.

"Waterin..?" Airin turned his head and found Anna, Anna was also there. ah, of course, she was not Roland's lover and Roland was Alden's best friend, of course she would come.

"Hey.."

"You..?"

"I'm at work, I'm actually a waiter in this house" as if to understand that Anna's face was full of questions, Airin chuckled and explained.

But what Airin saw was Anna who was so sad to see him, whether he was so poor..

Airin turned his head when he heard the great Lord was giving his speech, and the words that took away all the eyes of the guests and everyone who was there including himself, were spoken, but Airin was fixated when the master's last words made her chest feel tight and her body limp instantly "I'll also officiate our son's engagement today" Airin felt his eyes heat up, and without feeling his tears fell when he saw Alden holding a graceful and beautiful woman in his hand, rising up on the stage.

Airin lowered her head and rubbed her cheeks violently, what was the end of it, and this was also what Miss Gres said until whenever Alden would still not be reached by her

"Waterin..?"

Airin looked up at Anna "Sorry Anna, I have to go back to work, enjoy the dishes" Airin went quickly towards the back door.

Airin wanted to run but she also did not want to feel embarrassed, because the servants who knew herself to be Alden's woman would definitely mock her more.

Airin looked up when she saw a handkerchief before her eyes "Thank you.." Airin wiped her tears.

"What are you doing Airin?" Anna sat herself by Airin's side, and Airin turned to Anna.

"Why do you survive if you get sick? I don't know what you're doing, but Airin, why don't you go and find another job"

Airin shook his head "Only here do I have a lot of money, working as a waiter does not get a lot of money, but at least I can still see it.." This lie is not just about money.

"I'll also make a lot of money while making her happy" continued to lie Airin, she even smiled behind her cries.

"Watery.."

"But Anna, I don't know when I see her as someone else's, it hurts a lot, but I can't go either." that's how she felt, wanting to leave but not being able to, he's been tangled up too deep to fall so deeply on Alden.

"He knows you love him?"

Airin smiled again, a smile that made Anna look confused. "Even if he knows, we still can't be together.You know rich people have a lot to think about.." yes that was what made him sober and Airin remembered the time that Madame Gres came to him and said..

"Airin. no matter how you feel, I've come to wake you up, that if Alden loves you you still won't be able to unite, you think someone like us would be willing to have a servant's daughter-in-law.."

"So get rid of your feelings, and I'm sure that even if Alden keeps you, it's not out of love.."

"No matter how much you love Alden, you still can't reach him because there will be no love in Alden's heart.."
