Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

And as Steven promised, today he came to see Sofia by bringing Steylla along with him. Alfin and Reihan came together to the hospital. Luan and Arthur balance their punctuality no less than the rest of their friends.

Dirga was also present because he just heard of the accident that happened to Sofia today.

Sofia looked surprised at the crowd.

"I didn't expect that I didn't just make my whole family excited and worried. Now your friends are also doing the same things?" Sofia glanced at Harry meaningfully.

"Then, we were so lucky because this hospital allowed a lot of people to come to visit. Although of course, it can't reduce the mother's rest schedule one bit. Uncle really appreciates your good intentions."

Everyone began to say hello.

"Hello, Grandma!"

"We are shocked by the news about you. You should be more careful and ask for some supervision."

"We know you're pretty stubborn with all your mindsets that you don't want to bother anyone. But you should re-confirm your position before moving anywhere, "

"You made us feel worried. Really."

"But, we are so grateful that you are okay."

"We brought some souvenirs,"

Alfin immediately hugged his distant grandmother lovingly.

"Grandma! You really made us worry. My mom and dad actually wanted to come here too. But they are currently still on their way to this country. They might only be able to visit here tomorrow morning. Then, I also came to convey it, "

Steylla had made fun of Alfin's spoiled attitude.

"Stop acting like a child and doing many acting!"

Steylla was still adding.

"Then, you better get out of the way because your heavy body makes grandma suffocate and make her uncomfortable!"

Daniawan and Lily looked confused.

"Who is she, Alfin? Is she your lover?"

Some people were already laughing amused by that question. As was the case with Luan and Arthur. No less Christina too, who already knew Steylla well during an impromptu party held by a grandmother at their house.

Alfin protested.

"Uncle! What the hell, you?! Why did Steylla suddenly become my lover?" Alfin really did not accept it. Although Steylla has changed drastically to be very beautiful. But still, this is not true.

Steylla also expressed her objections.

"That's right, uncle. That's impossible."

"Steylla is Steven's sister. Don't you remember, uncle?" Arthur began to speak. Christina added.

"That's right, Dad! Did you forget about a young girl who used to have pretty messy hair?"

Steylla was not at all offended by Christina's honesty.

Daniawan and Lily still looked enthusiastic.

"This woman... is your sister... Steylla, Steven?" asked Daniawan in disbelief. Likewise with Lily's gaze which if voiced would result in the same question.

Steven was already chuckling cutely at the reaction of the Daniawan and Lily pair. Then he had got used to receiving such stares.

Sofia called Cleo to come closer to her.

"Cleo..." Sofia called.

"Yes, grandma. You need something?" asked Cleo hastily holding Sofia's hand as she approached her.

"I haven't heard your voice. Because of that, did you suddenly become mute, dear?" Sofia asked. Ignoring the long conversation that was happening before his eyes and preferring to look for Cleo's figure.

"Of course not, Grandma. Why did I suddenly become mute? I just don't want to disturb the harmony of this family and hope that you all can express your feelings well."

Sofia watched Cleo's eyes that always glowed in her eyes.

"Then, how do you feel right now? Are you also worried about me and don't want anything bad to happen to me?"

Cleo nodded quickly.

"Sure, Grandma. How could I not care and worry about you?"

Cleo pressed Sofia's hand to her right cheek.

"Is that true?" she asked again.

"Hmm," Cleo nodded confidently and patiently.

"Good, then. But, why didn't you say anything when I was talking about great-grandchildren?"

Cleo stiffened. Great-grandchildren? Why did those words come out at the wrong time?

Harry who was beside Cleo also listened.

"Grandma is very old now, Cleo. Grandma may not have much time to see her granddaughter have a child. Grandma wants to see the little of Harry or Cleo was running around Grandma's yard."

This request was difficult to answer.

So Cleo chose to remain silent.

Luan, Arthur, and Dirga who have listened that didn't stop staring anxiously. They already knew about Harry and Cleo's fake marriage. But it was not valid for Sofia, who certainly has high hopes for her grandson.

Harry waited for Cleo's reaction.

Waiting for how Cleo would answer that question was definitely hard.

Cleo glanced at Harry instead. Wanted to ask him for help. But Harry just averted his gaze.

Caused big frustration appeared in the heart of Cleo that felt being clamped. Sofia still showed her sad face. Hoped to get an exciting answer from Cleo. But she just still had to wait for the answer for a long time because Cleo and Harry were just busy staring at each other.

Cleo was forced to nudge Harry's leg.

"Grandma asks you. Not to me," Harry let go of his responsibilities so ease.

Cleo narrowed her eyes.

What kind of answer is that? And why did Harry impressed wanting to let go of responsibility?

Cleo was forced to let out a question while smiling.

"You really don't want to answer it?" Cleo tried to push Harry to act.

Harry was still pretending.

"What should I answer?" Harry considered Sofia's question lightly.

Cleo expanded her eyes.

"You really don't know? Or pretend did not to know?"

Harry shook his head with a serious face. Luan quietly laughed behind Arthur's strapping body.

Harry, in the end, pretended to remember.

"Ah, about a baby?"

Sofia recognized her grandson's ingenuity. Realized that now he was teasing his wife. Cleo continued to try to be patient. Harry still stalled time.

"Em ... I don't know. I feel all that depends on you, "

Cleo glared.

"I? Why me?" She said as frowned.

"Of course because if you want it, then I just grant it. Isn't all decisions indeed in your hands? I said tonight, I would follow you and grant whatever you want. You don't remember?"

Sofia's eyes sparkled quickly.

"What is that? What are you talking about last night? And let's share that information along with us! Especially, me!"

Cleo paid attention to Sofia's high spirit. Isn't she a patient? But why is this attitude like healthy people?!"

Everyone scattered and approached.

"Very interesting!" Christina shouted excitedly while clapping.

Alfin was moved to tempt.

"Ah, so you two have started talking about having a baby?" Alfin's eyes lit up. He got excited and wanted to know what Harry was thinking.

The director was curious.

"Master, do you want to have a daughter or a son?"

Dirga's question shocked several people. Especially, Cleo. But Lily actually had different thoughts from her.

"Auntie can't wait for it! And a pair of babies is good."

Cleo seeks help again.

"You don't want to say something, honey?" said Cleo softly. Hoped Harry didn't follow jokes or curiosity from his family and friends.

Sofia was still waiting for the answer.

"For me, the purpose of marriage is children. Because of that, you two couldn't possibly let me down, right? Because the reason I still want to enjoy a marriage just the two of us was a reason I don't want to hear about."
