Three days later,
In a luxurious residence, especially in one room on the ground floor, a husband and wife were seen sitting on a long white sofa, making it seem luxurious. They also sat side by side. “Hubby, is it true that nothing will happen later?”
A young woman who was still pregnant looked restless, even though she was dressed beautifully. Meanwhile, the head of the family just watched the movements of his lovely lady and did not say a word. The sun’s rays had penetrated their room, so the situation became bright.
“It is okay, sweetheart. We can’t go back anymore, because soon our parents will come. Whatever happens, then we will face it together.” The expression of the emerald-eyed man looked normal, although inside his heart was the opposite. Meanwhile, the expression of his lovely spouse seemed restless, so even when in a sitting position, she became worried.
The man’s right hand seemed to reach for something from under the robe, so he overlooked his mate. Meanwhile, the twenty-year-old woman deliberately looked away to not stare at the person she was talking to. The atmosphere became quiet because the conversation between them had stopped.
Suddenly, a man, who had a height of one hundred and eighty-five centimeters tall, seemed to put the object he had been holding back in its original place. As soon as possible, Tristian turned his attention to his beloved lady, whose expression looked sour, even looking to the other side of the room. The right hand of the head of the family began to reach out to the opposite sex’s head area, then rubbed that part. Lavena was stunned when she got such a touch, so she looked away, and it turned out that her husband was watching, stroking the top of her head.
“Come on, let’s go, Wifey! Our parents will be here soon, so we would better wait for them out front.” The burly man deliberately lowered his tone of voice while still stroking the top of Lavena’s head in order to melt the heart of the woman he loved.
The sharp-nosed woman felt the truth of her beloved husband’s words, so it forced her to agree to know the nature of her parents. “Okay, Hubby. Hopefully, they will come soon, so there will not be a long wait, because I can’t stand for too long.”
“Do not worry, I will help you, Wifey.” The man who had a bushy beard and sideburns became relieved when he saw the reaction given by his lovely lady. Not long after, they got up and left the room. Tristian held the fingers of his beloved wife’s right hand and looked protective in keeping his soul mate.
While walking to their destination, the husband and wife accidentally cross paths with the servants. They stopped for a moment, then paid their respects to the owner of the house, along with his loyal wife, after that, they went to the location that would be their responsibility. A light breeze hit the body and the faces of Tristian and Lavena.
The weather there was quite average because the sun has not shined too hot. The feelings of the only daughter of the couple, Alex Martinus Keira and Gabrielle Atventz Meira, have been restless for a long time. However, this feeling grew stronger and stronger, so that fear began to hit, which caused her to be reluctant to meet her parents, and her parent-in-law because she was worried about the response from all of them.
Hopefully, Mom and Dad do not blame me, especially about my pregnancy. I really do not want to get blamed on them. The fetus in the womb is innocent, so she does not deserve hate speech from anyone. She is innocent. If someday my daughter grows up, she will definitely choose to be born in a normal state, aka free from the ancient prophecy, so that she can live in peace, Lavena thought, while still walking hand in hand with her husband.

Ten minutes later,
They arrived at the front. Sweat started to appear on the petite woman’s forehead, so when Tristian saw this moment, the man with thick eyebrows immediately wiped the sweat with the hem of his shirt. Lavena was stunned, then raised her head so that she could look directly at her man’s face. “Thank you, Hubby.”
“You are welcome, Wifey. If they have not arrived in five minutes, then I will carry you.” Just as Tristian finished saying this, there was the sound of a horse carriage not too far away, so the young couple turned their heads toward the source of the sound.
A few moments later, a golden carriage appeared within a hundred meters, so Lavena’s heart beat faster. The green-eyed woman seemed to know the vehicle’s owner and remained silent for a while. At the same time, the opposite was being experienced by Tristian. The well-built man seemed not afraid of the presence of a guest he had invited three days ago.
“Hubby, I am scared,” Lavena said quietly.
She tightened her grip even more. This beautiful woman spontaneously did because the anxiety was getting to her. However, the other person did not consider this a weakness and allowed his beloved wife to do so.
“Do not be afraid, Wifey. Relax because I will not leave you alone. I am your husband, so that I will explain all to them. You can hear my conversation with them, but please do not talk about anything unless I ask you to do it. They must be able to accept the reality, even though it is difficult to do it,” said Tristian. He also used the same tone of voice as the other person, and the man’s expression seemed relaxed as if he did not have a heavy burden.
Tristian’s words failed to calm his spouse’s troubled heart, but the woman who liked the natural scenery tried to calm down, even though the situation was troublesome. The sound of the horse carriage grew louder so that fear, nervousness, and anxiety had mixed into one in his heart.

Five minutes later
A large and magnificent horse carriage arrives in front of Tristian and Lavena, the owner of the luxury residence. A moment later, a coachman exited his place and opened the door. Several male servants were already near that couple as if they knew special guests would be there.
In less than a minute, a forty-one-year-old woman came out. She had the face, then the nose shape, and the same posture as Lavena. However, from her appearance, she looks older even though she is still beautiful, and her hair color differs from the hostess. Her hair color is brunette. Tristian and his wife saw the guest was coming, as well as the actions of the male servants helped the coachman unload several large bags placed on the horse-drawn carriage.
A middle-aged man with silver hair, carrying a long shiny stick with an eagle’s head at the end, was seen descending from there. The man wore a dark brown coat and a tall hat worn by the nobility in Zlatav. They seemed to approach Tristian and his beautiful wife with expressionless faces. There were no smiles on the faces of the two guests, which only made Lavena’s guts shrink even more.
In less than two minutes, a husband and wife, who were the two essential guests, much older than the hosts, had arrived before Tristian and Lavena. “Welcome, father-in-law. How are you?” said the red-haired man, friendly.
The man, who had a height of one hundred and eighty-five centimeters tall, let go of his hand so that this moment made the blonde-haired woman nervous. However, Lavena tried not to show those feelings, and she avoided the gaze of her biological mother. Meanwhile, the man Tristian had reprimanded did not do without further ado answer because he first looked at the face of the other person as if he was looking at something from his son-in-law.
“I am fine, Tristian,” replied the blue-eyed man. The tone of voice was cold, but the host ignored this situation. The right hand of a twenty-five-year-old man was still stretched out to Sir Alex Martinus Keira, who was now glaring at Lavena as if the woman had made a big mistake.
No need to wait any longer, the biological father of Lavena Isolda Keira shook the son-in-law’s hand, then let it go. Meanwhile, the mother-in-law only observed the actions of her husband and the other person, and then she shifted her focus toward her only daughter’s stomach, which seemed to have bulged.
Before the two guests said anything that offended his lovely spouse, the well-built man said to them, “Let’s go inside, father-in-law and mother-in-law.”
