Trapped in Love Girl Bet
Meet Him

Liora came down the stairs with Yuna helping, afraid of falling, she said. Liora licked her lips slowly to relieve her nervousness. With a slow step, Liora looked at the few people who had already filled the living room of the Krystal mansion. Will that be his new family?

"God? This is Liora, right? From your childhood it was beautiful. Now it's getting pretty, what the hell do you eat, Yun?" the middle-aged woman was wearing clothes of a similar color to Liora. Is this a coincidence?

Yuna chuckled, "You can be Sa" Yuna replied

"Seriously, isn't it Pa? Pretty, isn't this Liora?"

The middle-aged man nodded. "From childhood she was always beautiful, Ma."

"That's right, Pa. Liora, sit here with your aunt" Marissa said.

Liora set her feet to approach the woman, and she sat down next to Marissa. Marissa kept stroking Liora's hand.

"The more beautiful you are, baby. Wait a minute, Auntie's son is on the road. It jammed. Do you remember Auntie? That house next to your grandfather's house in Busan. Remember?"

Innocently, Liora shook her head. The incident was a long time ago, already 10 years ago his grandfather died so understand that Liora forgot.

Marissa chuckled, she stroked Liora's back. "Of course if you forget, it's been a long time. What semester is it now?"

"Semester 6, Aunt."

The conversation continues. The beginning is just a stale base, but now the two families are discussing the essence of marriage. They were discussing a good wedding date for Liora and her candidates.

Liora bit her lips, the curiosity towards the man she was betrothed to was getting higher, let alone the man not coming.

Marissa's phone rang. Marissa picked him up immediately.

"Hello Vin, is that it? But this has been waiting for you already, you are careful if there is anything to tell Mama?" Marissa hung up. His gaze turned unpleasant as his son could not come.

"What's up, Sa?" ask Yuna.

"My son couldn't come today, there was a disturbance on his journey. But he apologized for not being able to attend" Marissa replied. Everyone nodded in understanding, the man Liora was indeed a workholic.

...****************...

"Alvin," call Liora.

Alvin stopped his steps, he smilingly looked at Liora who was walking towards him. "Hi Liora, how come you here? If there is a need you can contact me, this is far from the faculty you keep here," asked Alvin.

"Have you finished college?" ask Liora.

Alvin nodded, a second later Alvin frowned because of Liora's look of frustration. "It has. Lio, are you okay?"

Looking at the silent Liora, Alvin could understand the situation even though he did not know the problem. Alvin holds Liora's hand, then takes Liora to a fairly quiet park. Alvin invites Liora to sit in one of the available chairs.

"Why are you, Liora?" ask Alvin.

Liora hugged Alvin. She cried in Alvin's arms, shedding the anxiety she felt. Alvin stroked Liora's back, hoping to provide some calm.

"Father, cry," said Alvin softly.

20 Minutes after Liora cried, the girl was wiping away her tears. Her nose was red, her cheeks were the same. At a time like this, Alvin still praised Liora's beauty.

"Why you?" ask Alvin.

"Your clothes are wet, Al." That's not the answer, it's a diversion from Alvin's question. 

Alvin stroked Liora's hair, "Who if you don't want to tell a story, that's your right. But remember, I'm here, there for you. If you want to cry just come, I still have a lot of clothes to make you cry."

Liora nodded, "Thank you, Alvin."

Alvin's hand was raised, stroking Liora's cheek to remove any trace of tears. "You're still beautiful despite the cry, I love it."

Liora blushed, her face turning red. "Al, what if I marry someone else?" The question made Alvin speechless, but a few seconds later he sighed.

"If you marry someone you love, I'm happy. But I felt like I was failing myself, getting what I love, I was failing" Alvin said in a slightly unwilling tone.

Liora nodded. He loves Alvin, but he can't express it. Liora knew Alvin's feelings, but she didn't want to remember anything about being with someone but now she's tied up by marriage.

"Alvin!" shouted a man who was running towards them.

"What?" ask Alvin.

"You're called prof. Jack, waiting in his room for a revision of the task," he replied.

"Yes, I'll follow you."

"Al, you meet the lecturer. I want to go home" said Liora.

"But how are you going to get home?"

"I can take a taxi or a bus."

"Okay, but be careful, tell me. Can I call the cab?"

Liora shook her head, "No need, I can do it myself" Liora refused. Alvin was just a mangosteen, he said goodbye then left Liora alone in the park.

Liora instantly stopped her steps when a black car stopped right in front of her. Liora narrowed her eyes, astonished by the car before her.

Shortly after, a man in formal attire got out of the car and walked towards him.

Liora fell silent, looking at the man wearing sunglasses approaching her. The man took off his sunglasses, displaying that handsome and near-perfect face. The tall body, pure white skin, thick eyebrows, plump eyelashes and beautiful hazel-colored eyeballs Liora shook her head to regain her consciousness.

"Hi, how can I help you, sir?" liora asked clumsily.

"In the car." The heavy voice sounded unwilling to be rebutted.

Liora frowned, "Sorry yes, you don't look like anything, gini-gini I can also martial. Cars are good, but it's good to kidnap people!" annoyed Liora.

"I'm Zelvin Harell Park, the man you've been betrothed to."

Liora rounded her eyes. Did she? If it's her, she's a widower of one child but doesn't look like a widower. This man before him was very handsome and dignified looking. Liora was fascinated.

"So, go inside. My parents and you were waiting at the boutique" he said.

"really? You're not lying, are you?"

"Please enter" said Zelvin with emphasis on each word.

Liora according to him. He thought, if he wanted to kidnap Liora it would be impossible for there to be such an artful kidnapper. Kidnapping with the latest sports car, it's impossible right?

There were no conversations on the way, only silence enveloped them. Liora did not want to start a conversation, the aura inside the car looked scary making Liora reluctant to ask.

The car stopped at the largest boutique in Jakarta. Zelvin gets out of the car followed by Liora. Zelvin stepped foot into the boutique, Liora just followed Zelvin from behind.

"Well, this couple has arrived. Liora, Zelvin, here baby," tell Marissa.

Liora approached, she stood next to Zelvin. "Mom, have prepared clothes that are suitable for you, you can choose which one fits you."

"Yes Liora, let Mommy help you," Yuna asked

Liora just nodded.

After fitting a suit, Marissa and Yuna agree to leave Liora and Zelvin together so they can get closer. Even Zelvin's work was handled by his Papa.

"Where are we going?" liora asked breaking the silence.

"Fetch my son" Zelvin replied briefly.

Liora nodded, "May you hear some music? Let-for"

"I don't like music" Zelvin said.

"Oh so, all right."

The car Zelvin was driving in stopped in front of the school, Seoul International School. There were some students who had already left the class with their parents. Zelvin got out of his car, and Liora got out.

"Daddy!" The boy ran over to Zelvin who was standing in front of his car. Liora looked at Zelvin, there was no smile on the man's lips, unlike the boy.

"Daddy, have you returned from France? Why didn't you tell me? I miss Daddy. Did Daddy meet Mommy?" ask the boy.

Zelvin was silent. "Get in the car, we're eating at your favorite restaurant." There was a look of sadness on the boy's face. What's the matter?

With a sad look on his face, the boy got into the car and sat on the front bench.

Zelvin will get into the car, but his hand is choked by Liora. "Om, uh Brother Zelvin, why wasn't the child's question answered? He asked, the look on his face"

"Don't interfere in my business." Zelvin insisted.

Liora released her clasped hands, she instantly fell silent. "Sorry."
