One Night In Dubai
The Part 34
Two Weeks later.
"Hey! Why are you daydreaming?" Cleo sat next to her gloomy-looking sister-in-law.
"I'm not daydreaming" Kaylin said without looking at her sister-in-law. His eyes looked straight at the fish pond in front of him.
"Why are you sure you're getting married to Mario?"
"Of course, why brother?" Kaylin looked at Cleo's serious-looking face.
"It's okay, it's just that I don't think you're going to be happy with this marriage" Cleo looked back at her sister-in-law until their eyes met. "You don't love him, Kay!"
Kaylin cut off their gazes, staring back at the fish pond. "I love him, Mario is a good man."
"Yes, he's a good guy. But I'm not sure you really love her."
Kaylin simply kept silent about what her sister-in-law said, making Cleopatra sigh violently.
"Now answer my question honestly, do you still love Alex?"
"Even though I still love her, but we'll never be together. Because Alex never loved me, brother. Anyway Alex already has a partner, and a child, so—"
"Wait first! Alex already has a partner and a child? What are you talking about? Never mind having children, having lovers she doesn't have," Cleopatra laughed as she shook her head.
"But Brother, I've seen a picture of a child on his cell phone."
"Maybe it's a picture of his nephew. After all how could an Alexander, who in his brain had only the job of spying, watching, and looking after someone, have a lover? Didn't I ever say that Alex was a workaholic?"
"Haven't discussed Alex again, I want to focus on my marriage." Kaylin chose to leave the place. He did not want to hear more about Alex who would only make his heart waver. Moreover, the wedding day was only one week away, and all the preparations were already nearly ninety-five percent. So he doesn't want to disappoint everyone, especially Kenan and Mario.
"Think once more of the path you will choose, for if you have stepped you will not be able to retreat again."
Kaylin continued walking regardless of Cleopatra's words, she had to get ready because soon Mario picked her up to do the last fitting of her wedding dress.
While Cleopatra could only sigh in length, Kaylin remained on her stance to marry Mario.
"I just want you to be happy Kaylin Meyer."
Yes, Cleopatra wanted her sister-in-law to live happily with her loved ones. Because he loved Kaylin like he loved his own sister.

After traveling for approximately twenty minutes, finally Kaylin and Mario arrived at the Boutique of the Lawalata family. The place where they will do the last fitting of the dress that Kaylin will wear.
"How Master? Beautiful isn't?"
Mario stared at Kaylin, who was now wearing an ivory-white dress, lace-lined with a corset, inspired by classic Victorian style.
"Beautiful," Mario walked over to Kaylin, then kissed her lips gently. "You're so pretty, baby."
Kaylin simply smiled, covering up the discomfort of being kissed by Mario. Somehow every time the man kissed his lips, the debaran he had felt when receiving Mario's proposal increasingly disappeared. Until now not a single bit.
