Chapter 279 - 279. Hospital (2)
"Okay, don't worry about her, honey. She's fine," Devan said then grabbed Claire's arm and walked out of the room.
Right after the door of the room closed, a small movement appeared on Mrs. Seira's fingers. Not only that, clear granules seemed to flow from her eyes which were still tightly closed.
To be honest, she had been awake since earlier, it was just that she chose to remain in such a state because she felt ashamed of herself. Not only that, but she also didn't know what to do if she met people later.
She felt very guilty towards her son, it turned out that after all this incident, considering how hard she had managed Devan's life, it turned out that her son still treated her very well.
While on the other hand, Devan and Claire who had just left the room now joined the others.
Aaron comes, bringing some food and fruits. And it was immediately greeted by Serly, brought it into the room where Seira was.
The doctor also came a few minutes later, following Serly who had disappeared behind the door of the room.
"Doc how is she?" Serly asked after the doctor re-examined the woman's condition.
Seira who heard that now slowly opened her eyelids.
"Thank God, she's back to her senses," said the Doctor with a smile.
"So that means we can bring her back home, Doc?" asked Serly.
"Yes, madam. Tonight Mrs. Seira will be able to go home, her condition is fine," replied the doctor.
Mrs. Serly just nodded in agreement. After that, the doctor excused himself from the room.
Meanwhile, Mr. Atmadja just sat with his head down since earlier. He didn't notice Mr. Aaron's arrival.
"Drink some, Mr. Atmadja. Maybe you need this to relax your body and mind a bit," said Mr. Aaroon then sat on the empty chair next to Mr. Atmadja.
Hearing his name being called, the middle-aged man looked up and saw someone he knew very well.
"Mr. Aaron?" said Mr. Atmadja a little surprised.
"Yes, it's me, Mr. Atmadja. Nice to meet you again," replied Mr. Aaroon, then took Mr. Atmadja's hand and put a glass of cold drink in his hand. At the previous event, Mr. Atmadja didn't pay much attention to his surroundings, he only focused on his wife's condition until she left the ballroom where the event was being held. Maybe that's why he doesn't know anything.
"I am the Uncle of Mr. Devan's fiancé."
"Soon we will be besan, I hope you can accept my Nephew in your family, sir," added Mr. Aaron again without reducing his politeness.
"So Devan's fiancé is the daughter of the Smith family?" asked Mr. Atmadja, the middle-aged man then straightened his body.
"That's right, sir. What you say is true," replied Mr. Aaron with a smile on his lips.
Hearing that, Mr. Atmadja froze in place not knowing how to respond.
"It is fortunate for me to have a future daughter-in-law from a respected family, Mr. Aaroon," said Mr. Atmadja after a few minutes of silence.
"Don't overdo it, sir. I just obeyed Devan's request, and it seems that Claire also has the same feelings as your son. Moreover, they already have a son. I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do, sir. For the good of my nephews and grandchildren, whatever I will do as long as it is a good thing," he added again at length.
Hearing that, Mr. Atmadja smiled again, "Devan has made his choice, he is no longer a child. So of course, I will gladly accept the woman of his choice," replied Mr. Atmadja.
"Thank you, sir."
"Don't hesitate, as their guardian, this is what we should do, Mr. Aroon," said Mr. Atmadja.
"You are right."
"Ah yes, may I ask one thing, sir?" said Aaron again.
"What is it? Tell me," replied Mr. Atmadja.
"I'd like to take Claire and Dave back to Australia, may I, sir? After all, today's event is over," said Aaron again speaking his mind. This he wanted to say to Devan since earlier, but always failed.
"Of course, after all, they are newly engaged, not married. No one will stop you from doing that, Mr. Aaroon. But it would be better if you tell Devan about this," replied Mr. Atmadja.
"What are you guys discussing?" suddenly Devan came and joined his father.
"Tonight, I want to take Claire and Dave back to Australia, Mr. Devan," said Aaron.
Devan was stunned, "But...."
"Okay, if that's what you want, Uncle," said Claire suddenly cutting Devan's words.
"Anna, no, I mean Claire, what did you say, honey?" said Devan felt unwilling to part with the woman so soon.
"I won't allow Claire to live with you until you two are officially married, Mr. Devan. I'm sorry that I had to do this, it's all for your good," replied Mr. Aaroon.
"What Mr. Aaron said is true, Devan."
"But is it this fast? I mean, why don't you guys stay for a few more days. The engagement ceremony just finished, I haven't had any alone time with Claire and you already want to bring her back?" Devan said bluntly.
Devan's words managed to make Claire blush.
"What do you want to do? You haven't married her yet. Don't do weird things before you get married, Devan," now Mr. Atmadja replied.
Devan was stunned, glanced at Claire next to him. "Okay, then what if my wedding takes place in the next few days?" Devan said.
"Next month," said Mr. Aaron.
"Let's talk about the wedding day another time, discussing it in this place feels a little strange," Melvin, who had only been listening, now joined in the conversation.
Devan and the two men in front of him exchanged glances.
"Okay, I'm sorry," said Devan again.
"Then stay for a few more days, Mr. Aaron," he added.
Hearing that, Aaron glanced at Claire as if asking his nephew's opinion.
Getting a nod from the woman, Aaron sighed, "Okay," he said.
"Thank you, Mr.. Aaron," Devan said with a big smile.
