THE PROXY BRIDE (ENGLISH VERSION)

MICA hugged Rossana. “Sorry, Rossana.” She wiped her wet cheek.

“Picture taking first,” said the photographer.

“There’s no need for that. Let’s go. ” Edward walked out of the church first.

Before Edward’s parents followed their son, the lady gave Rossana a look as sharp as a knife.

As if Rossana could not step foot out of the church.

“Rossana, come on,” Mica supports her.

Rossana stared at Mica. She really wanted to cry at Lauderdale so that she felt a bit okay.

Mica hugged her again because she saw Rossana’s sudden tears.

“Everything will be fine, Rossana, just let him go. You’ll see. He’ll let you go or divorce  just wait. It will happen. She said that because she wanted her to feel good.

“I hope so, Mica, so that I can be with my family right away and that I can take good care of my mother.”

“Come on, Edward might get bored if we didn’t follow him right away.” She supports Rossana in walking.

While they were at the reception, Mica didn’t leave Rossana because Edward wasn’t by her side because he went everywhere. She wanted to be annoyed with the man because he didn’t include Rossana when he went to greet the people who were in the reception. She was his wife, after all.

“Bro, how is there going to be a honeymoon later?” Edward’s friend asked.

Edward stared at them. His friends grinned at him.

“Actually, she’s pretty, Bro. “Look at her, her innocence is there.” Al said.

Edward laughed at what he said. “You think so, bro, that she is innocent?” Maybe she was just picked up by—” Edward did not continue to mention the name of the woman who left him.

His friend understood this.

“You think that she’s a hired girl, Edward?”

“Exactly, what a sane woman would do what she does. But a bad woman will do what she shouldn’t for a small amount! ”

So, what’s your plan? On your honeymoon later, don’t tell me you’ll sleep, bro.

“I’m going to drown myself in alcohol, bro, so I can fall asleep right away.”

“How about her?”

“What the hell do I care about her? I don’t even know her. Let her do what she wants. Even if she goes out to find a man for herself. ”

Because of his answer, the friends just shrugged their shoulders.

The guests who still attended the party said their goodbyes, mostly Edward’s relatives and acquaintances. Sherry’s parents and relatives silently left the church.

Earlier, he wanted to talk to Sherry’s parents to ask them where their daughter was, but he let it go. He won’t care anymore because she’s the one he left behind. But he wonders to himself. Yes, he’s angry, but why doesn’t he feel sadness in his heart or will he cry because he loves Sherry. But he doesn’t have that feeling of nothing to him. Why did his heart turn to stone so easily?

Edward’s mother approached him. “Son, let’s go home.”

“Go home, mommy; I’m staying here tonight; isn’t there a suite reserved here; it’d be a waste if it couldn’t be used.”

“You mean hijo, will you two stay here?”

“Yeah,” Edward replied briefly to his mother.

“But, son, why? Let’s go home, leave her here alone,” protested the mother.

“Mommy, go home,” he replied to his mother.

The lady didn’t say anything already; because she knew her son what he said he must do.

“Mica, what should I do? Don’t leave me here, please. ” Rossaan begged her.

“Rossana, I don’t want to leave you either, but she’s your husband, but try you to tell him that you’ll come home with me.”

“I’ll try, but I’m scared, Mica!”

“Just try, Rossana. Let’s get close to him so you can say goodbye to him properly. ”

“Mica, can you be the one to tell him? You know him, don’t you? I don’t know him.”

“Okay, I’ll go.”

They both approached Edward.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Excuse me, Edward. Can I talk to you for a while? ” Mica told him. ”

Edward look at her.”Sure, what do you need, Mica?”

“I’m going home.”

“Sure, go home, Mica. “Nothing will stop you,” Edward answered her without emotion.

“Yes, I’m going home, but Rossana will come with me,” she said.

Edward looked at Rossana, who was crouching behind Mica.”She wants to go with you, Mica?”

“Yes, Edward!”

“No,” he emphatically refused.

“Why? You don’t want her to come with me, Edward? ”

“You shouldn’t have to ask that, Mica. Go home. My answer is no. ”

Mica did nothing because Edward had the right to stop Rossana from leaving.

“Rossana, I will leave you now. He doesn’t want you to come with me. And there’s nothing I can do because you’re his wife. ”

“Mica,” Rossana softly called her name.

“Don’t worry, Rossana, Edward is kind. He won’t hurt you. Right now, he’s just angry because of what happened. I’ll leave you now.” Before she left, she hugged Rossana. Well, she knew Edward wouldn’t hurt her. She knows that he’s a good man.

When Mica was no longer by her side, Rossana’s heart beat faster when she was alone. and don’t know what to do. She sighed deeply. “What are you going to do now Rossana?” She thought.

When the guests were gone, Edward did not call Rossana to tell her that they were going to their suite; he headed for the elevator. Rossana just looked at him while walking. She doesn’t know if she will follow him or not. He didn’t say anything to her, like let go. If only he could run out of the hotel and go home to his family. But she knows he will hunt her It’s just good to bang her head against the wall. So she had a reason to leave it.

Edward frowned because she didn’t get on the elevator with him. “Damn! Where is she?” He quickly pressed the open button.

When it opened, he didn’t come out. He was thinking if he was going to go there or it was up to her where to go, like he told his friends.

“Ahhh,” he shouted softly because his mind said. No, go ahead and take her. He was shocked by his senses. “Damnit.” He exclaimed, then exited the elevator. He saw Rossana sitting in the waiting area.

“What the hell are you doing here? Whom are you waiting for, your customers?”

Rossana didn’t understand what he meant. So he didn’t answer it.

“So, what do you want me to do? Am I going to carry you? Like a lovely couple! Dream on. “Come with me.” He quickly turned and started walking.

Rossana followed this without saying a word. As they went up, they said nothing. Until they reached the room for honeymoon lovers.

When they got inside, Edward immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower. Rossana sat on the edge of the soft bed that still had rose petals scattered over  she picked up a petal and smelled it.

As he sat, she was restless, thinking about what would happen to her and her unknown husband.

Edward finished taking a shower. He’s looking at himself in the mirror. He looked at his lips. And then came to mind the act of violently kissing the woman. “Damn!” He will admit it to himself. Her lips were the softest and sweetest he ever tasted. He held his lips. “Hell! Why am I thinking about this?” He immediately left the bathroom.

Rossana was thinking like that when the man came out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped over his waist and water still dripping from his hair.
