Trapped in Love Girl Bet
The Hard Zelvin Nature

Liora is in the mansion of her father-in-law, Marissa. He was in the living room waiting for Marissa to call Emmanuel. Emmanuel was playing in the back garden with his nanny. Liora's heart was pounding, the last time she met Emmanuel, when they ate at the restaurant. The first impression was not good, making Liora a little afraid to meet Emmanuel.

"Nuel, meet your new Mommy first" Marissa told Emmanuel, introducing Liora as the little boy's new mother.

With a jutek look, Emmanuel looked at Liora who was sitting clumsily. "He's not my Mommy, Oma. Mommy I'm just Mommy Erica!" emmanuel.

Marissa rounded her eyes with Emmanuel's reply. "Hey, you can't do that, son. He's your new Mommy, Mommy Liora." said Marissa.

"Oma! Mommy I'm just Mommy Erica, not her." Emmanuel is getting assertive that his Mommy is just Erica instead of Liora.

Erica was the first wife of Zelvin. Their marriage foundered because Erica betrayed Zelvin and Zelvin himself who caught their affair. Zelvin got custody because Erica did not want to take care of Emmanuel. Marissa told him that while she was living in this house, so Liora knew little about Zelvin's past.

"Ma, I've." Liora stood up from her seat, she approached Emmanuel and crouched down before the boy.

"Emmanuel, Mommy you're just Erica okay? And aunt is just your friend. Want to be friends with, Auntie?" bargain Liora gently Emmanuel including a smart child. From the way he spoke, it was very different from a child his age. He is very clear and firm. Emmanuel was silent, yet his gaze continued to stare at Liora sharply.

"In the mansion, Daddy you always wait for you to come home. So, would you like to go home with aunty?" persuade Marissa.

Liora looked at Marissa, that look looked guilty, Liora nodded with a smile. "The aunt your Daddy assigned to accompany you. So, we should be friends."

"I want to go home to Daddy's mansion" Emmanuel broke up.

Liora smiled relievedly, "When are we going home? Want now?"

Emmanuel shook his head. "No, I'm gonna wait for Aunt Moana."

Liora nodded, "OK if that's it."

"Oma I want to play again" said Emmanuel.

Marissa nodded, "Bi, please take care of Emmanuel. Don't play far away." Marissa's message.

The woman nodded, "Okay, Madam." Emmanuel went to play with his nanny.

Marissa asked Liora to sit down again on the chair. "I'm sorry Emmanuel, baby. Emmanuel is cold, but if you slowly approach him he will not be so. You're patient, approach her" Marissa said, stroking Liora's back.

Liora smiled, "Father, Ma. I understand."

"How are you, Zelvin?" ask Marissa.

"Sir Zelvin is good, he has started to go to work" Liora replied.

"Liora, are you happy to marry Zelvin?"

Liora fell silent. That question seems hard to answer. "Mama..."

Marissa smiled, "Mama knows, be patient." 

Liora simply nodded softly, "Yes Ma," he said as he let out his fake smile.

Liora was already at the Mansion. Bi Moni, Emmanuel's nanny has brought Emmanuel to her room to sleep. It turns out that in addition to being Emmanuel's nanny, Bi Moni also became a maid in Zelvin's mansion.

"Mrs, would you like some tea?" bargain Bi Moni at Liora who was still sitting in the living room while doing chores.

Liora shook her head, "No need to Bi, if you want I can do it myself. Aunty sleeps alone, all day keep Emmanuel and clean clean at home must be tired."

Bi Moni shook her head, "No Madam, Aunt just wait for Madam."

"Auntie just sleep, I'll wait for Zelvin's brother. Gapapa kok Bi, I know Aunt soy sauce right?"

Finally Bi Moni relented, she bailed to the room and left Liora alone in the living room.

The clock is at 11pm but there is no sign that Zelvin is coming home yet. Even Liora's eyes had felt very heavy, she finally decided to go to the room. Liora was sure, Zelvin was fine.

On the other hand, Zelvin was clucking his tongue with traffic jams due to an accident because the slippery road makes it difficult for motorists to control the vehicle if not careful. Zelvin glanced at his watch, it was already 11 o'clock more. Zelvin wanted to send his wife a message but she didn't have her number.

"Still long sir?" ask Zelvin to the driver

"It seems so, the problem is not going forward" replied Mr. Patrick Zelvin nodded, he closed his eyes to sleep for a while, he was very tired. After a long time, the car finally drove back. And a few minutes later, the car was parked in the courtyard of his mansion. Zelvin got out of his car, he took his foot to get into the house.

"Mr Zelvin's home yet? Madame Liora was waiting for Mister, but it seemed to be in the room again," said Bi Moni and Zelvin just nodded, without replying to Bi Moni's words. Bi Moni did not feel hurt because it was the nature of her employer.

Zelvin opened Liora's room plan. Zelvin looked at Liora who was sleeping comfortably in her bed, then slowly closed the door again.

Zelvin set foot into his room. He'll clean up and rest.

"Emmanuel, if you go to school like to be accompanied by Daddy?" ask Liora.

Emmanuel shakes his head "Whose to keep?"

"Sir Patrick."

"Keep later picked up the same who?"

"Sir Patrick."

"Whatever."

Liora smiled happily. "Picked her up for what? A car? A bicycle? Or what? Anyway aunty will do anything."

"Bus."

Liora gawked, "I mean?" liora Beo.

"I'm going home to take the bus. Before I get home, Auntie should be at school and on the bus."

"Are you serious?"

"Why? Aunty does not want to? Yes it is."

Liora quickly shook her head. "No, not that. I want to know, what is not to do that is handsome. Anyway finish college later Aunt pick you up, take the bus."

Emmanuel just fell silent not responding to Liora's words.

"Have finished? Let's eat, Bi Moni has prepared food for us" Liora asked. Emmanuel nodded, then he walked out of his room with Emmanuel.

Zelvin was already waiting for Liora and Emmanuel at the dinner table. Zelvin looked at them with a sharp gaze, making them both feel intimidated.

"Why are you guys long? You guys can't hurry a little? Slow and undisciplined Emmanuel! Who taught you to be undisciplined? Daddy already commemorate you, if before 7 o'clock should already be at the dinner table," snapped Zelvin.

The atmosphere at the dining table was very hot. He even wanted to cry when he saw Zelvin angry with his loud voice. "This aunt has me talking" replied Emmanuel defending himself. While Liora lowered her head, her tears would spill if she blinked.

"Sorry, Brother Zelvin," Liora's great-grandson. Zelvin threw out his breath, easing his almost peaking emotions. Seeing Liora who looked down in fear made her unable to bear.

"Now you sit down and eat!" zelvin's orders. Liora helped Emmanuel to sit on the chair, then the girl sat down next to Emmanuel. Liora prepared food for Emmanuel.

"Eat a lot yes, make it big quickly," Liora said with a smile on her face.

Zelvin stared at the interaction of Emmanuel and Liora. Liora looked like she was getting closer to Emmanuel. Zelvin knew that his son was very difficult for anyone to approach. Even her son was very cold to strangers including Liora.

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

"Emmanuel, Aunt's coming home?"

Emmanuel just nodded in response.

"Learn the right, don't be lazy to be smart. But Auntie is sure you're smart anyway" Liora continued, rubbing Emmanuel's fine hair.

Emmanuel nodded, then he looked at Zelvin.

"Dad, I'm going to class" Emmanuel said.

Zelvin just nodded.

Liora frowned, why is that interaction of father and son my partner? Even Zelvin doesn't seem to care.

"Emmanuel's spirit!" liora said as Emmanuel got out of the car.

The car drove back, now the goal is the Liora campus. "Sister Zelvin, if I may give advice. Don't like that to Emmanuel, Kasian, he was like hoping to be noticed with the same brother Zelvin. Anyway-"

"Stop advising me!" zelvin Liora's snapping closed her eyes.

"Yes, but Emmanuel kasian."

"If Kasian takes care of him, don't advise me!" Liora covered her face with both palms, she started sobbing. Reflek, Zelvin immediately stopped his car on the side of the road.

"Why you?"

Liora's body trembled, hearing Zelvin's clasping earlier, she could at least be snapped. "Sister Zelvin has twice snapped at me, can't what if you talk softly? I'm just getting started, knowing I'm wrong. And again, I just let out my opinion, if brother Zelvin does not like yes already, good talk do not snap me," explained Liora while sobbing.

"Stop crying!" zelvin's orders.

Liora shook her head, "Can't. I still cry."

Zelvin held the car's steering wheel very tightly, holding back the mounting emotions. I don't know why he was so sensitive this morning.

"Liora you get out of my car!"

Liora flabbergasted, "A-what? Don't joke, brother!"

"Nobody's kidding. Now you get out of my car!"
