Be My Wife
“Ariana, you can go back to your room yourself, right? I have a little business to deal with Axton.”
After eating dinner, Axton, who was also in Bali, approached Samuel. The man said that there was emergency work that Samuel had to check and finish immediately.
Because she didn’t want to disturb her, Ariana chose to go back to the room first. After all, he was very tired and needed time to rest.
“I’m not a kid, Samuel. You think I can’t go back to my room alone?”
“I’m afraid you won’t get lost.”
“Thank you for your concern future husband.”
Of course Samuel wasn’t really paying attention. The man’s words were even mocking. Knowing that the location of the restaurant and the room they were staying in was quite far, Samuel wasn’t sure that Ariana would be able to get to the room immediately.
“But if you really get lost, you don’t have to hesitate to make a call. My cellphone is on standby 24 hours especially for you.”
“What’s the use of a hotel maid if you can’t be asked to show you the way to your room?”
“I’m just offering another alternative. Who knows, along the way to the room, you won’t meet a hotel maid.”
Ariana smiled wryly. Instead of responding, he chose to leave Samuel immediately. It can add emotion if you continue to serve the boss.
Trying to remember where her room was, Ariana walked slowly along the resort buildings along Six Senses Uluwatu. The lighting was intentionally dim, so he had to be careful not to take the wrong step.
Once through the first corridor, Ariana felt a little strange. I don’t know if this is true or just his feeling, as if someone had been following behind him.
Fearing that something might happen, Ariana hastened her steps. Even worse, Samuel’s words really proved true, not a single hotel maid was seen walking around like this afternoon.
Armed with instinct, Ariana continued down the resort corridor. It wasn’t long before, when he had just turned into the last building, he found a man with the same build as Samuel standing casually while leaning his body against a building pillar. The man’s position, which was in the middle, prevented Ariana from continuing to walk towards the room.
“So you are Samuel’s future wife?” who was that guy first. Of course these words he addressed to Ariana.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“You talk to me?”
“You think there are other people here?”
“But I don’t want to talk to people I don’t know.”
Ariana was being nonchalant. Once again, choosing to ignore, he intends to continue walking towards the room.
However, after just a few steps forward, the man who had been leaning on it immediately approached. Without any hesitation he pulled Ariana’s arm. Pushing the woman’s body until it sticks to the side of the building wall, then locks it so it can’t move anywhere.
“Let go, no! Who are you? I don’t know you!”
The man smiled. Not one bit concerned with what Ariana said.
“It’s useless for you to scream. No one will hear, let alone pass by to help.”
“What do you want, anyway? We don’t know each other, do we?”
“Maybe you forgot about me. But I haven’t forgotten the woman Samuel brought to Walters’s residence the other day,” said the man. His deep voice made Ariana shudder with fear. “I wonder how much money Samuel has paid to pay you to be his wife.”
Ariana immediately gasped at the man’s words. He thought, where did this stranger know the secret between him and Samuel.
“Actually, what are you talking about? I don’t understand what you’re saying at all.”
“Oh come on. Don’t pretend. I know who Samuel’s real boyfriend is. I —-”
“RAMA!”
From the back side, there was a voice calling that was so familiar to Ariana’s ears. I don’t know how it started, what is certain is that now Samuel has pulled and then pushed the foreign man who had dared to disturb Ariana.
With all alacrity, the slant-eyed man immediately grabbed Ariana’s body. Giving the order to stand, take cover right behind him.
“Don’t you dare touch my future wife!”
“Post-wife? Pretending wife? Don’t overdo it Samuel. I can read all your plans,” said the man, smiling meaningfully.
“Oh my gosh Rama. You’re already like a shaman, you can read my mind.”
“UnfortArianately I do know what you are planning Samuel.”
Samuel chuckled. Realizing that Ariana was scared, he took the initiative to take his future wife away. However, before leaving, Samuel again approached the man named Rama. Staring intently, while speaking with emphasis.
“You don’t have to pretend to know and meddle in my affairs. Don’t you ever dare to get close, let alone touch Ariana like just now, if you don’t want me to ruin your life!”
Laughter immediately fell from Rama’s lips. Meanwhile, Samuel immediately took Ariana to leave. Send him immediately to the room. Make sure that she enters the room.
“You’re okay, right?” asked Samuel when she arrived at Ariana’s room. Worry was evident on his face.
“I’m fine. But who was that guy?”
“That’s Rama. He’s my cousin. He didn’t like me from the start.”
Ariana finally understood. No wonder the man earlier confessed that he had met him at the Walters family’s residence the other day.
“But how could he know about you having a fake relationship with me?”
Samuel shrugged her shoulders. Indeed, he himself did not know where Rama could guess or draw such a conclusion.
“I don’t know. Looks like Rama was just guessing. Leave it alone. Later let Axton take care of it. Now, you hurry up and rest. I’ll ask the resort security to send someone to stand guard in front of the room. Or do you want me to sleep in your room tonight?”
“It’s delicious!”
Seeing Ariana’s sullen expression immediately made Samuel laugh immediately. For some reason, he felt satisfied every time he managed to annoy his secretary.
“Okay, you go in quickly and lock the room immediately. It’s time to rest. So, I have to go. See you tomorrow, future wife.”
