Marrying the Paralyzed
Chapter 60

“Grandfather, sorry for Melinda's family like this,” said Melinda was sad and feeling guilty about what had happened.

“Daughter-in-law, fortunately granddaughter-in-law became a wife in this house. Surely the granddaughter-in-law is very tired of having a family like them,” reply Almer who increasingly love his daughter-in-law's grandson.

Melinda could only look down embarrassedly at what the old grandfather had said. Since the death of her biological mother, Melinda has been subjected to harsh treatment from Dina and Katty. In fact, the Father was once a kind and understanding Father, suddenly turning indifferent to him.

“His son-in-law's granddaughter doesn't have to be sad. There's your Grandpa and your husband who really love your daughter-in-law's granddaughter. Now the daughter-in-law's granddaughter goes to the family room to treat the former slap,” said Almer.

Raka approached his wife in the living room with the help of his personal assistant.

“What are you doing? Can't you fight that woman? If he slaps you, you should turn around slapping him and not just shut up,” said Raka nagging his wife.

Raka was furious with his weak helpless wife like that. What Raka wanted was a brave wife and not a timid wife.

“Mas Raka please scold him I am as content as Mas Raka wants. Whatever it is, I'm ready to hear it,” Melinda reply who resigned with the anger of her husband.

“Sial,” chirps Raka who is very upset.

Raka evicted the two maids who wanted to treat Melinda's face in order to leave the living room immediately, as well as Reza who was standing right behind her Young Master.

Now, in the living room there is only Raka and his wife.

“I don't want to have a weak wife like you. If you are constantly weak like this, it is better for our divorce to be decided as soon as possible,” concluded Raka threatening Melinda who was holding pain on her cheek that felt swollen.

“I'm sorry, Mas Raka,” Reply Melinda Ogre.

“I hate the most if anyone apologizes constantly without any remorse at all. Can you turn brave?” asked Raka very loudly.

“Mas Raka no need to worry. I will be bolder and more resolute to my family,” Melinda said.

“I hold your words. Now come closer, let me treat that face of yours,” pinta Raka.

Melinda changed her sitting position to be close to her husband. And right then and there, Raka slowly applied the ointment to Melinda's face very carefully.

Melinda's heart was pounding again. The famous Raka is cold, fierce and also haughty. It turns out, it has another side that is so warm.

Melinda involuntarily smiled looking at the face of Raka who was so close to her.

Raka became misbehaved when Melinda looked at her face instead. Being too nervous, Raka asked Melinda to apply the ointment to Melinda's own face.

Melinda looked surprised and somewhat disappointed because Raka suddenly turned cold again.

“Reza!” call Raka so that her personal assistant comes to her immediately.

Reza ran as fast as he could to his Young Master who was in the living room.

“Iya, Young Master.”

“Quick take me to the room. I want to rest for a while, before lunch together,” said Raka who wants to quickly leave the room.

Melinda could only remain silent as she looked at her husband who was slowly leaving until he was nowhere to be seen.

Carefully, Melinda rubbed her own face with the ointment. It turned out, his stepmother's slap was very strong, so the slap from her stepmother's palm was printed clearly.

“Of course Grandpa and Mas Raka are angry over what Ibu Dina did. Supposedly, Ibu Dina is not determined like before,” said Melinda monologue.

Dining room.

Almer, Raka Melinda and Reza were enjoying their lunch in the dining room. The four of them did not speak a word and focused on enjoying the food cooked by Melinda.

Melinda felt a little uncomfortable with such a cold atmosphere. Melinda thinks that the silence of her husband and Grandpa of her husband is a form of their anger.

“Uhuk... Uhuk...” Because of thinking too much, Melinda choked with her own food.

“Minum.” Raka offered a glass of water to Melinda who was choking.

Melinda gave a small nod and gulped down the glass of drinking water until it was gone. Melinda was so nervous that she experienced something like that.

“Grandfather is full,” said Almer and sauntered away without the usual smile he showed to Raka and Melinda.

For the first time, Almer did not smile at all and made Melinda even more unwell.

Reza, who had finished eating, hurried to leave the dining table.

“Look, because of your weird family, Grandpa got mad like this. Now, you have to think of a way that Grandpa can smile again,” Raka said to Melinda who sat right next to him.

After saying the sentence to Melinda, Raka went and moved her wheelchair leaving Melinda who was still sitting on the dining table chair.

Melinda tried to catch her slightly messy breath and after feeling quite calm, Melinda decided to go see Almer.

“Mbak, where is Grandpa?” melinda asked one of the servants.

“Looks like the Big Lord is in his room,” replied the waiter.

Melinda stepped in wide strides towards Almer's workspace.

Melinda knocks on the door first and will enter when allowed by Almer Arafat.

Almer knew that it was Melinda, his daughter-in-law's granddaughter. Almer invited Melinda to enter his study.

“Grandpa, is Grandpa still mad at Melinda?” ask Melinda.

“Anged to the granddaughter-in-law? Of course not, granddaughter-in-law. Grandfather was trying to be patient while calming Grandfather's mind a little unreasonable. The point is, Grandpa is not angry with Grandson,”, Almer said.

“If Grandpa is not angry with Melinda, can Grandpa smile back?”

Almer laughed at the question of his son-in-law's granddaughter who was quite tickling the stomach.

Raka, who had just walked into his Grandfather's study, was quite astonished by what his wife was doing.

“Raka, look at this wife of yours. Very funny and also adorable,” said Almer praising Melinda on Raka who just entered the workspace.

Raka nodded in agreement hearing Grandpa praise his wife.

Pretty good this woman too. Not usually Grandpa quickly subsided his anger and only this time I saw Grandpa who was immediately cheerful back. (Inner of Raka)

“Raka, you and your daughter-in-law should rest in the room. The granddaughter-in-law currently needs sleep to heal quickly,” said Almer.

Raka agrees and asks his wife to help push his wheelchair into the room.

”Mas Raka, please forgive me,” pinta Melinda hope her words can make Raka want to forgive herself.

“Enough. Didn't I say that I hate it when people keep apologizing. However, there is no effort or desire for him to change for the better,” explained Raka.

Melinda suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell down. Fortunately, Raka swiftly pulled Melinda's body into her lap.

“I'm sorry, Mas Raka. This happened because I had not had time to take medicine,” explained Melinda while coming down from Raka's lap.

”Servant!” Raka yelled out to the servants to come to her immediately.

It didn't take long, the servants came with gasping breaths.

”You guys, help my wife get into the room!” Raka's orders.

Upon arrival in the room, Melinda was immediately taken to Raka's bed. Then, Raka asked the servants to immediately leave her room.

“Why you?” asked Raka who this time did not protest to Melinda who had been wearing her bed.

“I'm fine, Mas Raka. Maybe my blood is not yet normal,” replied Melinda.

“If you already know you have a history of low blood, you should be more of a diet. What's more, consume foods or fruits that can add blood,” Raka explained.

“Iya, Mas Raka. Later after resting I will drink guava juice,” reply Melinda.

“Ju Guava Juice? Did you add ice to the guava juice you were going to drink?” asked Raka curiously.

“Of course not, Mas Raka. I don't really like to consume ice,” Melinda replied and chuckled.

Raka again became misbehaved with Melinda's laughter which somehow sounded very melodious in Raka Arafat's ear.

“Stop. You better rest as soon as possible. I don't want you to linger in my bed. Because your bed is on the sofa and not on my bed,” said Raka clarified their respective beds.

“Then, I will move and sleep on the sofa,” Melinda replied and tried to get out of the soft bed.

“Stop, I said stop and stay there,” firmly Raka who does not want if Melinda even fainted suddenly.
