Wedding Agreement With CEO

Elena was still silent. Yes, she suddenly felt hesitant to leave. There was something that made her reconsider. Keenan. She did not intend to go to see Keenan, but only to meet her mother.

Ellena was still not ready to meet Keenan. But apart from that, she couldn't wait to meet her mother and tell Lucas all about it.

Ah, what if you suddenly meet Keenan, when she's with Lucas? What should she answer if Keenan asked about Lucas? For the umpteenth time she was faced with a situation that made her a dilemma. Should she decide to leave, or choose to stay?

Impossible! She couldn't possibly keep his mother waiting. Hadn't he promised to meet her mother soon, after the wedding was over? However, she had to find a way not to meet Keenan in the village.

"What are you thinking about?" Lucas asked after waiting a long time for Ellena to speak.

Ellena came to her senses, then looked into Lucas' face, before she finally responded. "N-no, Sir."

"Then why are you still standing there? Do you intend to cancel the ren—"

"Not!" cut Ellena enthusiastically. "Sir, are we going to stay there?" he asked for sure.

"No! I can't stay there."

Lucas' answer momentarily made Ellena smile. Yes, she also wished they weren't staying there. At least, it would make it easier for her to avoid Keenan.

"Okay, let's go now." Elena walked over to Lucas.

Ellena and Lucas arrive at Briana's house, Ellena's mother. Their arrival seemed warmly welcomed by Briana and Martin. Ellena and her mother looked happy. Six months without seeing each other, they had to endure longing for a long time. Their gazes locked for a moment, while still standing in the doorway of the house.

With a teary face, Ellena hugged Briana, and vice versa. Tears rolled down their cheeks, uncontrollably. They stayed in that position for a while. In fact, their activities immediately became a touching scene for Lucas and Martin who had been watching him for a long time.

Elena let go of the hug. "Mom, I missed you so much. Sorry I just saw you today." Ellena wiped her mother's tears very slowly. Her tone was a little shaky. She stared at the sad eyes in front of her, making the tears fall again.

"I missed you a lot too, Elle. You're all right, aren't you?" Briana did the same. She wiped Ellena's tears with a slightly trembling hand.

"I've always been kind and happy to Mom and Martin," Ellena replied, forcing a laugh.

After hugging her mother, Ellena turned to hug Martin who she also missed so much. The younger brother who since childhood has always been an outlet for his annoyance. However, after she worked in the city, that never happened again. Her busy schedule prevented her and Martin from spending time together, even if it was just to joke and tell stories.

Lucas didn't look away. Seeing the touching scene in front of his eyes, he could quite guess that Ellena really cares and loves her family.

There was another side he had just seen in Ellena at that time. Ellena who is innocent, gentle and loving, also cares deeply for her mother and brother. It really made Lucas feel amazed by the figure of a woman who had officially become his wife. An amazing figure who is willing to sacrifice his time, energy and feelings for the sake of his family.

Lucas thought for a moment, realizing a mistake. It seemed he was so cruel to have involved a woman as good as Ellena in his game.

Yes, after seeing Ellena cry last night and now, Lucas regretted his actions. Did Ellena suffer so much because of him? Mind it at that time.

Even so, Lucas couldn't just cancel the agreement. He still desperately needed Ellena to repay his pain. At least Selena would be very jealous if she saw that she had found a better partner. After all, he also didn't want to lose because he had spent a lot of money on Ellena.

"Mom, introduce me, this is my husband, Mr Lucas." Ellena smiled as she introduced Lucas to her mother. Not to forget he also introduced the man to Martin.

Lucas greeted and greeted Briana politely. He acted like a real son-in-law in front of the middle-aged woman.

Briana took Ellena and Lucas into a very simple house, far behind when compared to the luxury of Lucas' house.

They sat in the living room where there was a set of gray sofas. The couch looked a little shabby, which made Ellena feel bad about having to let Lucas sit there.

However, Lucas himself looked normal. He showed no disgust at all, even though he had to sit on the sofa.

"I'll get you some water to drink." Briana was about to leave that place.

"No need, Mom, just leave me alone!" Ellena rose from her seat.

"You stay here with your husband," Briana replied, then went straight to the kitchen.

"Sis, I'll excuse myself for a moment," said Martin, who also left Ellena and Lucas in the living room.

Ellena just nodded her head in response, then turned to the side, looking at Lucas. "Sorry, Sir, because I have to sit on this sofa," she said feeling uneasy.

"No problem," Lucas answered shortly and then looked around the room.

***

After spending a long time in the house, now Ellena and Briana are in the room. They seemed to talk a lot in private.

"Mom, I love my husband very much. You don't need to worry, because he is very good to me," said Ellena when Briana was again worried about her marriage to Lucas.

At first, Ellena intended to tell the truth to her mother. However, for some reason it seemed as if something was blocking her mouth, so she gave up the intention. She had to lie to keep her mother from worrying.

"I know. From the first time I saw him, I could tell that Lucas was a good man. From the way he behaved and spoke, I'm sure he will treat you well, Elle. I'm happy if you are happy with your marriage." Briana seemed to put her hand on the back of Ellena's hand.

Ellena smiled, but for a moment her face shrank again. She looked seriously at his mother's face. "Mother, does Keenan still come here often?"

Briana was silent for a moment, staring at the sad glare in front of her. "Yes, yesterday he was here, he told me that you were avoiding him. This morning he was also here. Didn't he call you?"

"No, ma'am. I turned off my phone on purpose." Elena shook her head.

Briana snorted for a moment, before finally continuing the conversation. "You know what? Today he went after you to the city," she said, which suddenly took Ellena by surprise.

"What?" Ellena rounded perfectly. Furthermore he was very worried about his fate, what if Keenan got information about his marriage to Lucas? she thought.

"Why didn't you tell Keenan about your marriage?" Briana asked curiously. "Actually what happened to you guys, why did you suddenly marry another man?"

Elena thought for a moment. "I just don't have the courage to say I don't love him anymore, Mom. Now, I have Lucas who loves me so much." Elena cracked a smile. He deliberately lied and didn't want to worry her mother.

"I hope you resolve your problem with Keenan soon. I am very sorry to see him so frustrated with you." Briana looked at her expectantly.

"Okay, Mom. Don't worry too much about it."

After discussing various things. Because it was getting late, Ellena decided to end their conversation.

"You take good care of yourself, Elle. Never argue with your husband, serve him well. I know Lucas is a good person and won't hurt you," Briana said after Ellena said she would soon return to town.

"Yes, Mom, I will remember your message," replied Ellena.

They immediately exited the room and found Lucas who was still sitting on the sofa with Martin.

"Lucas, I'm leaving Ellena with you, take good care of her. I beg you, don't hurt her one bit!" Briana said to Lucas.

"Okay, Mom, I'll take good care of Ellena. You don't have to worry," Lucas answered very kindly.

"Oh yes, I thank you for your kindness, so that our debts are settled," Briana said flatly.

"That's not much, Mom."
