Since You Married Me
Lotus Flower

Johan froze with a very unsightly facial expression. Instantly the pride evaporated somewhere. His intention to make his daughter superior to Zaya was dashed already.

"Really?" Ask without being aware. He refused to believe what Aaron said.

Aaron smiled as he grabbed Zaya's waist to get close to him.

"Darling, don't you remember Mr. Johan? Wasn't he the one who booked your cafe back then?" Ask Aaron to Zaya.

Zaya returned Aaron's smile.

"Of course I remember. Our cafe even gives a 25% discount as part of the promotion. It's just that Mr. Johan might have mistaken my subordinates as the cafe owner." Zaya replied while still smiling.

This time Johan and Natasha were completely speechless. The two of them remained silent with an incredulous look.

Johan did not expect that Zaya turned out to be the owner of the cafe that he recommended to his colleagues some time ago. He even had time to ask Natasya to model the hard work of the cafe owner in developing his business. Who would have thought if the businessman was the Young Madam of the Brylee family who thought it could be nothing. He even advised Zaya to ask Natasya about business earlier.

It was like putting mud on your own face. Absolutely disgraceful!

"My wife did not take formal education, but she started her business a few years ago, starting from zero to become what it is today." Aaron looked at Zaya proudly.

"At first only one cafe in the city center with few employees, until now it has seven branches, including those in Bali. And the special thing is, my wife is really pioneering her business alone without my help. He can stand on his own two feet without the shadow of the Brylee Group."

Natasya still could not say anything. The pride in the Oxford title he showed Zaya had now turned to shame.

Zaya has managed to open many cafes with his own efforts, whereas he even had to always use his father's big name to make his business partners want to work together. Very far from Zaya's achievement.

"Mr Aaron... Lady Zaya.... I'm sorry. I only intended to offer the Madam a favor earlier, not intending to offend." Johan said at last with an unpleasant face. The middle-aged man bowed deeply as his apology.

"It's okay, Mr. Johan. No need to apologize. Indeed my background always invites people to think humbly. But of course I won't be affected by what people think of me."

Johan and Natasya were rather surprised to hear Zaya's words. They did not expect Zaya would tell the truth about her identity as clearly as it was in the party like now. Doesn't Zaya care about her reputation? Or is Zaya trying to provoke Aaron into teaching the people who have offended him?

Natasha suddenly panicked. He did not want Aaron to get angry and make things difficult for his father.

"Madam, I'm really sorry for asking about Madam's educational background. I really didn't mean to offend Madam." Natasya looked parched with a face made as if regretful.

"If you don't mean to offend my wife, then what is your purpose, Miss Natasya?" Aaron interjected with a sharp question. His eyes stare at Natasya who already looks increasingly panicked.

"Honey..." Zaya touched Aaron's soft shoulder to calm the man down. Only God knows if he is currently cheering in his heart because he can call Aaron with the call 'Honey' in front of everyone.

It felt like Zaya was declarating her ownership of Aaron at the moment. Zaya can see the dislike gazes of the women who like Aaron. But Zaya doesn't care. Aaron is her husband, her man. He would not let any woman get a chance to approach him.

"No need to take heart. It's just a small matter, it doesn't have to be enlarged." Said Zaya softly. Not forgetting one hand rubbed Aaron's chest to calm down. Aaron's face seemed to soften.

"Alright, Honey. If you want it that way I'll obey it. But if anything makes you unhappy, just tell me. I'll make sure that guy's gonna have a hard time his whole life until he'd rather just die."

Everyone who heard Aaron's words shuddered in horror. They were all average very well know how angry Aaron was. In the future they will not dare to mess with Zaya if they want to survive. It is clear that Aaron cares about his wife. He would do anything to make his wife happy.

"Mrs Zaya, once again I'm sorry. My daughter didn't mean to offend you." Johan raised his voice again.

"Yes, Madam. I just wanted to say hello, there was no intention to make Madam feel unhappy. I hope the Madam can understand him." Natasha also chimed in.

"Don't worry. Even though you guys offended me on purpose, I'm not the vengeful type. If I'm petty minded, then I won't get to the point right now." His words are soft but sharp.

"I understand that many still do not accept my presence as Young Madam Brylee. But don't you look at Aaron? Aaron's not blind, he's a smart guy. He wouldn't make me his wife if I didn't deserve it." Zaya's voice was clearly heard among the party guests.

The people around Zaya became silent and watched closely. They seemed to want to know what Zaya would say next.

"Darling..." Aaron clasps Zaya's fingers to prevent Zaya from losing control. But Zaya actually held back Aaron's fingers as if asking Aaron to believe what he would do.

Zaya sighed then looked at the people.

"Before you judge me, judge me first. See if in the future Brylee Group will be humiliated by me, or I can actually make Aaron bring progress. If in the future I have a bad influence on Aaron, you have the right to test me. But if in the future I can bring kindness to Brylee Group, then there's no reason for you to disrespect me."

Everyone was speechless and speechless at Zaya's words. They did not expect that the woman who was initially thought to be an empty shell, turned out to have almost the same charisma as Ginna, the Great Mistress.

"So as long as that assessment has not had any results, there is no need to secretly demean me. Let's respect each other, and work together to make Brylee Gruop a success again."

Everyone is still quiet. Then suddenly a middle-aged man stepped towards Zaya while clapping his hands proudly.

Carlson stopped in front of Zaya and Aaron, then patted Zaya on the shoulder.

"Brothers, do you know the lotus flower?" Carlson looked around.

"Lotus flowers that grow on mud are more beautiful than those that grow on clear water. That's because the ones growing on the mud suck the nutrients out of the mud itself. And my son-in-law, he's like a lotus flower growing on mud. Growing up in a not-so-good environment doesn't make it bad, but forging it becomes special."

"He is superior compared to the others. My son won't get any better than this. And I myself feel lucky to be his father-in-law "

Zaya lifted her gaze and looked towards Carlson. He was so excited to hear what Carlson was saying. His heart really felt full.

"Thank you, Pa." Lirih Zaya's. Carlson smiled in response.

Suddenly Ginna was there, not since when. The Great Mistress also stepped over to Zaya.

"Come with me, the wives of our colleagues want to see you." Take Ginna to Zaya.

Zaya is a bit confused. Then he looked at Aaron as if he was asking for an opinion. Aaron also nodded.

Zaya followed in her mother-in-law's footsteps with a bit of anxiety. His heart wondered, would he face the next battle?

But soon after, Zaya was stunned. Ginna held her hand like a mother leading the way to her daughter.

Ginna looked at Zaya.

"Not to worry. I'm not gonna let anything happen to you."

Seriate....
