5. Alea Meet Eros Parent’s

Since the incident a few days ago, Alea had become more comfortable around Eros. For her, Eros was no longer like a stranger and more like a friend, even though they still agreed to marry. Now Eros was driving his car to the man's parents' house, actually Alea was feeling very nervous. She wasn't good at talking to the elders, but Eros always told her to calm down.

Still, Alea couldn't calm down. She had to think about what he would answer when Eros' parents asked, it felt like she was going to have an interview for a job. They arrived at a large gate, with lots of trees around it. Alea couldn't even see his house from behind the gate.

"Open the door." Eros said that when a guard came over to their car. When he realized who was in the car, the guard immediately ran and spoke to someone through a walkie talkie stuck in his pocket. The gate opened automatically, Alea opened her mouth in astonishment. She just realized that the main house is very far from the entrance gate of the house, there is even a golf course spread out when they head to the main house.

Alea chuckled in admiration, she occasionally glanced at Eros because she realized that Eros was not an ordinary person. Even her family's past wealth couldn't compare to that man's. Eros parked his car right in front of the main house, a house with European-style architecture that would astound anyone who saw it. This house is really luxurious, even Alea never dreamed of owning a house this luxurious. It's too good to be true!

"Come on." Eros took her and stretched out his hand waiting for Alea to return his hand. Even though it was a little awkward, Alea accepted Eros's hand and held the man's big hand tightly. A warm hand that made a strange feeling now spread across Alea's chest.

"Eros!" Just as they stepped into the house, a middle-aged woman who looked very beautiful and elegant approached the two of them. Renata is a successful entrepreneur who owns almost all cake and bakery shops with branches all over Indonesia with a brand called Nata's. Meanwhile, his father's company, Raymond, has been continued by his eldest son, who is none other than Eros. Because it's not surprising that their family is very rich, even they are included in the richest families in Southeast Asia.

From the look on Renata's face, she looked worried and worried. The middle-aged woman had also run into the arms of Eros who was her eldest son.

"Why didn't you say from the start that Emma and Davin did something terrible like that?" Renata exclaimed, she could not accept it because her son was treated like that by someone whose child he cared about.

Eros smiled broadly, then cupped his mother's cheek. "I'm okay, Mom," he replied, and after seeing Eros smile Renata finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was happy that Eros was okay. "Then why don't you come home?" Now Renata jerked her son, she hit Eros's chest in annoyance.

"I wants to calm down first," Eros replied again while trying to avoid his mother's punch. He chuckled when he saw, Renata pursed her lips because she was annoyed at Eros. His mother always acted spoiled, especially with Eros because he was the first son. Now Renata's gaze turned to the girl who had been standing still beside Eros while watching the little fight between Mother and Child in front of her. Alea is a little jealous of their relationship.

"Eh— who is this?" asked Renata while pointing at Alea and looking at Eros asking for an explanation from her eldest son.

"Let's talk about it inside, Dad is there, right?" Renata just nodded her head, she occasionally looked at Alea and made the girl lower her head in embarrassment. Eros, Alea, and Eros' parents sat across from each other at the dining table. Alea ate her food with gusto, seeing Renata secretly smiling happily.

"Come on, eat a lot," Renata said to Alea, because she was embarrassed, Alea just nodded and went back to eating her food. Eros was also happy when his mother treated Alea as well as possible, even though he had not introduced her to his mother and father.

"So?" His father cleared his throat, after they finished eating the atmosphere became awkward again. Alea realized that the aura that was coming out of Raymond, Eros' father was very scary. He shuddered, while continuing to lower his head not daring to look at her again.

"I will get married asap, with the girl you have seen. Azalea," Eros explained. Unlike what Alea had imagined that there would be a fight when Eros said it, it turned out that Raymond just sighed and nodded his head, while Renata had already closed her mouth. opened in surprise at what his eldest son said.

"It's up to you as long as it's not like yesterday," Raymond said resignedly, the middle-aged man now glanced at Alethea and again nodded his head.

"Isn't it too fast, Eros? You just failed to get married." Now it was Renata who replied, she didn't want Eros to rush anymore. But Eros shook his head, for some reason he felt he had to get married soon. For some reason he wanted to take revenge on Emma and Davin and the people who belittled him, he wanted to prove to them that he couldn't be fooled and could find a replacement for her quickly. Seeing Eros clenching his fists, Alea realized that she was only used as proof and revenge for the people who had betrayed that man.

Alea lowered her head again. True, she also used Eros to get rid of Mr. Adam. So let Alea think they have used each other. "So your name is Azalea?" asked Renata suddenly, Alea raised her head and looked at Renata while nodding her head firmly.

"Y-yes, Madam." Hearing Alea's answer, Eros' parents laughed loudly. Alea is very funny, because she calls Renata 'Madam'. "Just call me Mommy, soon i'll be your in-laws," Renata said, aware of her ridiculous behavior, Alea also chuckled because of embarrassment.

"Alea, are you working or studying? You can see that you are still very young," Raymond said, for some reason he had liked Alea since the first time he saw the girl. Even though they had only met for a few minutes, Eros' parents believed that Alea was a kind-hearted woman. Even so, they felt something strange between them. Not like a couple who are about to get married.

"I study veterinary," Alea answered shyly, everyone at the table was amazed to hear Alea's answer. Even Eros just found out that Alethea's dream turned out to be a Veterinarian, this foreign girl is truly unique.

"Why?" asked Renata, rarely did she meet people interested in becoming veterinarians, usually people with noble hearts who dreamed of becoming veterinarians because they had to work voluntarily.

"Why not become a general practitioner?" Raymond asked, still curious about the girl's reasoning. Whereas for financial problems, doctors in other fields are more financially secure.

"I prefer animals than people." Even though the reason seems ridiculous, Alea really likes animals more. Since childhood, it has been a must to visit the zoo once a week. Since Alea was not good at socializing with other children, she played more with her beloved dog.

Until her beloved dog had to die because of her illness, Alethea felt very sad because of that she was determined to become a veterinarian.

"You are very unique, aren't you," Raymond said while laughing again, Renata also laughed. Seeing his parents who were happy, Eros looked at Alea who was still embarrassed and chuckled a little. Eros stretched out his hand and clapped Alea's hand from behind the table, making the girl immediately turn to Eros.

"Good job." Eros whispered while smiling broadly. Alea won the hearts of her parents naturally, the girl didn't even try at all. Alea smiled too, lowered her head again when she felt her cheeks heat up from the smile Eros gave her.
