The Amazing Process For Marrying You - Chapter 100

Dino and Rere had returned from the supermarket buying groceries since the food stock in Dino’s refrigerator is running low. There are only noodles and eggs left. Rere wants to do her duty as a wife. She wants to serve nutritious and delicious food for her husband. She browsed the internet to find the recipes. Rere knew that Dino was a picky eater. That’s why Rere literally made dishes that her husband would love to eat. Dino was a Padang descendant, so that man likes spicy food. Dino doesn’t like sweet food and will vomit if he eats them. His stomach immediately felt nauseous because he had been pestered by Padang cuisine since he was a child. Dino tongue only accepts spicy food.

Rere came up with a cooking idea for Dino. She will cook Kiambang grilled fish. Kiambang grilled fish is a famous dish in Padang, specifically in the Sicincin area. Everyone who comes there will definitely eat this signature dish. The fish is fresh because it is directly taken from the pond. The restaurant raises the fish to be sold. There is no doubt about the taste since it will make everyone want more.

Rere prepares seasonings to make the grilled fish based on Google’s instructions. To make Kiambang grilled fish, she needs 7 ingredients. The ingredients are 1 large gourami, 1 ounce of red chili, 70 grams of galangal, 4 tablespoons of sugar, 12 garlic, and 6 tablespoons of sweet soy sauce. There are several steps to make the dishes which are to clean the tilapia, coat with lime, leave for a while, then wash thoroughly. Puree the garlic (if using ground garlic, mix it). Pour it into the ground seasonings, add sugar (no need to use salt anymore because ground spices are usually salty), puree the chilies and galangal with a blender. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and mix well. Add sweet soy sauce, stir before adding flavoring powder. Check the taste. After that, stir it well. Apply it to the fish and let it soak for a while.

Dino came to the kitchen and looked at his wife. His stomach suddenly felt hungry, smelling the grilled fish fragrance. Suddenly, Dino felt some courage as he hugged Rere from behind. His hand wrapped around Rere’s stomach.

“What are you cooking?” said Dino with a spoiled tone.

“I’m cooking now, Dino.” Rere was suddenly nervous. Her body was stiff from being intimate with her husband. Not that she doesn’t want to, but her pride won’t let her.

“I know you’re cooking. What are you making?” Dino didn’t want to let go of her.

“I am making grilled fish. Can’t you see it?”

“You’re cute when you’re not angry,” Dino replied, making Rere blush.

The girl’s face reddened with embarrassment. As usual, she pretends as if nothing happened.

“If you want to laugh, just laugh, dear. Don’t hold back.”

“Who said I want to laugh?” Rere retorted back, she will maintain her dignity.

“It is you, dear. Who else is here beside you?” Dino teased.

“If you try to find another wife, I’ll dismember you.” Rere took a banana and a knife, then cut the banana into pieces. “If you cheat, I will cut your ‘little brother’ like this banana.”

Dino’s guts shrunk. It turns out Rere is scary when she’s angry. Dino realized that he was successful in making Rere attracted to him, although the girl will never say it. Dino’s love is not one-sided since Rere started to care for him.

“Yes, dear, how dare I act that way? How could I have two wives when I can’t even tame my only wife.”

“Tame? Am I a pet?” Rere put her hand on her hips, showing a fierce face.

The sound of the bell stopped their argumentation as they looked at each other.

“Who’s coming?” Rere looked at Dino.

Dino shrugged, “I don’t know either.”

“Let me open the door. Keep your eyes on the fish. Don’t overcook it.” Rere walked to the door.

Rere opened the door. She was surprised to see a woman in a short skirt and a red-white-striped shirt. She puffed out her chest, and her hair was curly blonde. Her skin is so white, and her legs are very long. Rere looked at the woman from head to toe. There was a sense of anger and dislike when she saw the woman. Rere suspected that Dino brought another woman when she was in City J.

“Can I help you?” asked Rere fiercely. She didn’t want to let the girl in.

“I’m looking for Mr. Dino. Is he here?”

“Who are you?”

“I am Sheila, Mr. Dino’s secretary.”

“Oh, I am Dino’s wife, Rere.” Rere felt the need to introduce herself.

“Sorry for not recognizing you, ma’am.”

“Who’s it, Re?” Dino followed his wife.

“It’s your secretary, Sheila,” Rere said through gritted teeth in annoyance. No wonder Dino wanted to rush to work, it turned out that his secretary was sexy and tempting. What kind of man can hold back after seeing Sheila’s beauty.

Dino held his breath. He knew that Rere was angry and jealous since his secretary is sexy and badass like Sheila. She has an alluring body.

“Come in.” Rere invited Sheila into the house.

“Thank you, ma’am.” Sheila smiled kindly. She realized that Rere did not like her presence.

“What’s wrong, Sheila?” Dino asked directly. He didn’t want to make Rere angry if Sheila stayed for too long.

“How is your condition, sir?” Sheila is trite.

“My health has improved. Tomorrow I will go to work. I don’t want to leave work for long.”

“Thankfully, you are okay. Are you hurt somewhere, sir?” Sheila approaches Dino to have a better look at the wound.

Dino felt uncomfortable and kept his distance from Sheila. The man was afraid that Rere would misunderstand them. Rere came just in time and put down the drink in annoyance. She sat in the middle of Dino and Sheila. Dino is hers! No woman should approach her husband. Dino just smiled at his wife’s childish behavior.

“Sir, besides checking your condition, I want to discuss our work. The filming of our new product advertisement was delayed due to an incident on set.”

“What do you mean?”

“The female model broke her leg during the filming process.”

“Really?” Dino looks annoyed because his ad should be aired soon. Looking for a new model will waste their time.

“The model was not careful when filming,” said Sheila sulkily.

“Gather all those in charge of the ads. I want a meeting.”

“Dino, you just recovered. You shouldn’t work yet.” Rere forbids him.

“But, Re, the filming must be completed immediately. The ads need to be aired sooner.”

“Let the marketing team do the work.” Rere crosses her hands. “You need to take care of your health first, No.”

“But, Re.”

“You don’t want to listen to me?” Rere glared at him, giving the man a warning.

Dino’s guts shrunk, but he cannot just forget about his job.

“I will help you attend a virtual meeting.”

“I can help too, sir.”

“Just take care of the meeting.” Rere forced a smile.

“But, ma’am.”

“I’m the boss’s wife. You need to listen to me!” Rere turned fierce.

Sheila bit her finger since she couldn’t do anything. Dino also hinted at Sheila to listen to his wife.

It turned out that the meeting via zoom did not make Dino satisfied. He needed to meet directly with the team to find a new model. In the end, they held an urgent meeting in the office. Rere didn’t want to be left alone at home, so she followed Dino to the office. Dino was still recovering, so Rere needed to attend to him. Dino’s head was still dizzy. Rere took Dino’s hand as they entered the meeting room. Sheila had to swallow hard, unable to do anything. Dino was being watched by his wife. Sheila took a seat next to Rere. She also prepares the files to be discussed.

“So, the incident occurred in the middle of the shooting process. We took some safety measures, but somehow it failed. The model has been taken to the hospital and is receiving treatment.”

“Why are you being careless? I have reminded you from the start to prioritize the model’s safety. Human error should be avoided in the shooting process. You are neglectful. Remember the deadline for this ad. In a few days, this ad should be showing everywhere on the billboards. Filming an ad was not easy. The shoot needs to be repeated several times and needs a lot of time and production costs. The advertising concept has been fixed. If we change the concept, the client will be angry because that is not what they agreed on from the start. Besides taking care of the client, we have to pay a dispensation to the model because this incident happened because of our negligence.”
