Forced Marriage: CEO’s Sweet Little Wife - Chapter 157

“I’m sorry, it looks like you’ve been waiting for a long time, ah ah, I’m a little nervous and ..” Jonathan scratched his forehead that didn’t itch, his body language clearly showed that he was very nervous dealing with Vira right now.

Vira stood up from the chair, she invited Jonathan to sit, “no problem sir, I haven’t been waiting long.” She said while showing a sweet smile.

“Thank you,” Jonathan took a seat in front of Vira.

“What would you like to order, sir,” Vira asked Jonathan, her drink had half a glass left.

“Ah don’t bother with that, I can order my drink.”

Vira nodded her head, and Jonathan called the cafe waiter. He asked for a cup of coffee for him.

Not wanting to waste time, because she had waited long enough, Vira opened a chat. “My husband said he wanted to book a flight in the afternoon.”

“Ah yes, that fast!” Jonathan’s face looks surprised, he doesn’t seem ready to part with Vira.

“Yeah, he’s been out of the office for too long, and I have to go back to campus.”

“You’re still in college?” Jonathan’s eyes looked around, he was surprised by Vira’s confession, he did not expect that his daughter was still in college. “But you are married, I’m sorry, my question is too personal.”

Vira shook her head, she didn’t mind Jonathan’s question. “No sir, your question is not very personal to me, without you asking I will explain with you with pleasure, I am still in college but I am married to Vino, He gave me a lot of relief because,”

Vira hesitated to continue her sentence while Jonathan waited with a curious and cheerful face.

“Because the campus where I study belongs to Mr. Broto.”

Hearing Vira’s confession, Jonathan took a deep breath.

“After all, he is your father-in-law, I will not be able to enter into the relationship you have fostered so far, I am aware of my position, hearing you want to meet me today has made me very happy and grateful.”

Jonathan’s trembling voice made Vira’s chest flutter.

“I’m sorry sir, I must have disappointed you, I shouldn’t be on anyone’s side but the fact that I’m already part of the Vino family, I can’t deny it all because it happened before.”

“Nothing, not at all!” Jonathan tried to calm Vira’s face, which looked good.

“You are a victim, just like Sarah, both of you are victims, victims of our past selfishness, but I hope you don’t hold grudges or hatred, because it will only hurt you, especially your relationship with Vino, I hope you have done bringing the past into your current relationship, if I’m being honest I like your husband.”

Jonathan lined a smile with a warm face, his expression this time made Vira a little calmer.

Vira once thought of getting a divorce and hated Vino because of past events but now she is trying to think positively as Jonathan said earlier.

“Don’t ruin your happiness for things that have passed in the past, you deserve to have a good future, you deserve to be happy with your partner.”

Hearing advice from Jonathan made Vira’s tears fall.

Jonathan immediately took a tissue and gave it to Vira, “In the end I just made you cry.” He whispered slowly.

Vira smiled, she took a tissue from Jonathan’s hand and wiped her tears, once again she smiled.

“These are tears of warmth, sir, I did not expect to hear advice like this from a father.”

Now it was Jonathan’s turn to change, his eyes flickering against the heat that made the gray eyeballs water. “I don’t want to cry in front of you, that would be a crybaby.”

Vira understood the meaning of Jonathan’s words, she chuckled, and they laughed together.

“Thank you for calling me, father.”

“Aren’t you my father?”

no need to wait long Jonathan immediately nodded his head. “Thank you…” he whispered once more.

Vira raised one of her hands and grabbed the back of Jonathan’s hand, she stroked it gently, giving time to Jonathan who was downcast, seeing Jonathan’s shaking shoulders, she knew that his father was dragged, it was a happy cry.

“What are you doing here!” Vino’s voice startled Sarah who was peeking behind the wall.

Sarah turned and looked at Vino’s face, a face that had once made her act out of bounds but now annoyed her, she folded her arms across her chest.

“You, what are you doing here?” Sarah asked Vino back.

Vino averted his eyes and pointed at the ocean ahead, “just enjoying the fresh air.” He kept both palms in his trouser pockets.

“You lied, since when can you lie to me?” Sarah said sarcastically.

“Tsk, you, why are you standing on this terrace with alert eyes, you peeking like an amateur detective.”

Hearing Vino’s words made Sarah’s face irritated, she hit Vino’s shoulder.

“I don’t think I have anything important to do here, so I better get out of here.” She was about to leave the cafe terrace.

Just a few steps, Sarah turned back to Vino who looked at her back seriously,

“What is it?” Vino asked with a mocking face.

“I think I have something to do here.” How to retract her previous words, she returned to her recent place, this time she pulled an empty chair on the cafe terrace, “I want to order drinks and hot breakfast, unfortunately, today I just want to eat alone, so get out of my sight!”

Vino rolled his eyes, hearing Sarah’s words earlier. “I don’t intend to spend breakfast with you either.”

Vino left Sarah, But when he turned to the right, he saw his wife sitting with Jonathan, he backed away with a surprised face, once again he took a few steps forward and cleared his vision.

It was Vira and Jonathan!

He backed away and hid.

Sarah has been watching Vino’s behavior ever since.

“What are you doing, why do you still like to act stupid!”
