Episode- 14: Meeting Between in-laws

Another side,

Diana looked at her phone that didn't ring for once throughout the three days.

"Let's get married"

Aside from this message, there is nothing else from Ethan in his inbox.

She is feeling frustrated and flustered at this moment. Something like this has never occurred before. This is the first time.

Ethan would not contact her that much originally, but there was a sense of his presence around her, and she could feel it too.

During the five years, Diana and Ethan were not together. They didn't even have a title. Ethan never promised her anything but he was the one to solve her matters readily every time.

At first, during the first days of getting to know Ethan, Diana was, like another normal girl, attracted towards Ethan. He is tall, handsome, and has an air of majesty around him; when he speaks, there is hardly any room to ignore his words and presence.

Yes, she was attracted to this man who suddenly appeared in her world and made her world tremble.

She has been unscrupulous throughout her life, never caring for anything, so when she saw that Ethan did not have any idea to be with her, she did not hesitate to turn around and enjoy her flamboyant life again.

Ethan wanted to be good to her, take care of her and let her overcome her problems. He never took any steps to be with her in a relationship. Maybe this was the offending arrow that hit Diana's self-esteem.

Over time, Diana got busy with her enjoyment of life, drinking, racing bikes, clubbing, and going on trips with her friends, often ending up in the police station, and Ethan would come up to pick her up and clean her mess. All those around Diana know that Ethan has become her lapdog with a protective sword who will appear as soon as Diana is in some danger.

But now...

Diana gloomily looked at her phone's black screen and threw the pillow on the floor.

She only has Ethan's number, which is not going through, and his address. She waited outside yesterday, but he did not come back.

There is an inexplicable sense of uneasiness that she could not shake off. She got up and changed her clothes before calling David to be with her.

Fine with his tantrums!!! If he wants to drag this matter like this then do it.

ANOTHER SIDE,

JADE GARDEN,

In the afternoon, Mama Angel called her friend, Genesis' mother, Penelope Rodrigo.

"They got married?" Mama Penelope said in a stunned surprised voice.

"Genesis did not tell me about this." She continued.

Mama Angel immediately said, defending Genesis, the good daughter-in-law her son finally managed to get, "Don't blame my daughter-in-law for this. They got married in a hurry later. She was busy arranging her stuff here and also took care of us. Now she urgently needs to go to City L for a summit. She is very busy and does not have time to breathe properly. You can't blame her for not telling you."

Father Waylon's mouth twitched upon hearing the blatant words of bias in his wife's tone. He did not say anything and continued to read the newspaper, focusing on the entertainment gossip and scandals of some big shots.

HoHo!! Can something else be as good as knowing such good gossip like this?

Father Waylon heartily laughed as he read.

Mama Penelope,"... I am not blaming her. You don't have to rush to take her side as if I will beat my daughter just because she did not tell me. Genesis has always been steady and sensible, aside from one time when she acted recklessly in her high school days. She is sensible and knows what's good for her."

"You two are in the city so let's meet in the Western restaurant after an hour. We all can sit down and talk about the wedding."

Mama Angel, "This is why I called you Penn. I have arranged most of the things roughly. Come with your husband and we all four retired people will work on the century wedding for our kids." She expressed herself cheerfully, like a bubbly girl in her eighteens.

Mama Penelope agreed with her friend's idea and called her husband back from the golf court.

"Your youngest daughter got married three days ago and you have another son-in-law. Do you still have the mood to play golf with your friend? Come back and get ready to go out with me to meet our other in-laws," Mama Penelope said to her husband, Vincenzo Rodrigo.

Genesis has two elder siblings, Adrian and Karina Rodrigo. Adrian is 35 this year and married Stella. They have a four-year-old son called Angus.

Karina is two months pregnant this year and she got married to a military family.

Genesis was never interested in the business of her parent's side, and her two elder siblings are powerful and reliable. They treated her as a little girl, just like their parents, so she was naturally not interested in doing business but in doing something she wished for.

An hour later, in the largest private room of the Western Restaurant, Mama Penelope with Father Vincenzo and Mama Angel with Father Waylon sat across from each other to discuss the marriage ceremony for their kids.

One was dragged here from the golf court, and another was dragged here in between reading some juicy gossip and internal matters of the rich.

.

CITY L,

Ethan and Genesis landed in City L after three hours of flight. Genesis left for the meeting hall with the teachers who came with her. Before leaving, she asked Ethan to go and rest first, and she'd come back after the summit.

Ethan nodded and sent her away before getting into the car to go to the small villa that he had here.

It was a graduation gift from his elder brother, which he never used before because he had not come here to live, but now that villa comes in handy to stay here for two to three days unless Genesis wants to go back.

Buzz,

There was a message from Jordan on his phone. Ethan unlocked the phone and glanced at it.

【 I met Diana by chance when I was seeing off a partner after lunch. She saw me in the past with you and remembered, maybe. She was asking me to tell you that you should not be so fussy and unfrozen her cards while she is still sensible and has a good temper. Ethan, I was getting annoyed listening to her nonsense, so I also said a few words in a sarcastic tone, and she flew away in rage. (sheepish laugh emoticon)】

Ethan replied, telling him not to take her seriously and worry about anything because he wouldn't mind her business and her anymore.

Five years of sincerity was not enough to repay the gratitude for saving his life, but it was enough to drain him out of his patience.
