Leena didn't know who he was calling. Why was he so anxious or patient? Nobody answered the phone, but he kept calling. He made the call, he stopped calling again and again...
Then he finally gave up. He put away his phone, lit up a cigarette, took a deep breath and slowly walked back and forth on the balcony. He fell into a more melancholy state.
Leena hid in a dark corner and looked at them. Her heart sank. If Miguel couldn't accept the fact that he married her all of a sudden, then his current state indicated that he didn't want to marry her at all. But why didn't he want to marry her? Why did he fall in love with her? Feeling disappointed, Leena retreated silently. It was as if nothing had happened when she came. Miguel would never know that she had come and understood his feelings.
The dinner didn't end until more than two hours later. The parents of the two sides talked enthusiastically, but Miguel and Leena were even more silent. Perhaps Mrs. Yang saw that Leena was absent-minded, so she didn't promise the marriage. She just said that she would think about it and give the children some time.
Disappointed as Ronald was, he couldn't force her. He said sincerely, "I hope Mrs. Yang can give us the answer as soon as possible. We will always leave the position of our daughter-in-law waiting for Leena. "
Then the two families ended. Ronald asked Miguel to send Leena and her mother back. However, when the two families just walked out of the hotel door, they met someone. All of a sudden, they stopped in surprise.
Alina slowly walked towards them. She was wearing a black dress of Chanel, black high-heeled shoes, a thin golden belt around her waist, a white leather bag in her hand, long hair hanging down, and delicate jewelry. She was very charming and charming. That day, she only wore a little makeup, but she outshone the people around her, no matter it was Leena, Miguel's sister-in-law or a passer-by, they would all regard Alina as the most beautiful woman. As soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention like a princess. When she came over, she walked in such a calm way with a noble and light smile on her face, as if mocking at the family feast of Miguel and Leena, which could not be seen in the world.
Miguel's eyes had been fixed on her since she appeared. He could only look at her as she walked towards him step by step.
Leena didn't expect that Alina would appear, and she appeared in front of the parents of the two sides in such a high-profile and sensational manner. She couldn't help but stare at her, and then looked at Miguel. When she saw the eyes of Miguel, she felt uncomfortable.
Before Ronaldcould say anything, Alina walked up to Miguel and asked in a sarcastic and heartbroken tone, "I heard that you are engaged to Leena? I should really congratulate you! "
Miguel kept staring at Alina, as if his eyes were sticked to Alina. He didn't know whether it was a conditioned response or something, but he explained foolishly, "We are not engaged yet. "
Ronald said angrily, "What are you talking about? Get engaged tomorrow!" Then he pointed at Alina and said, "Why do you come here? It has nothing to do with you whether we are engaged or not. Do you still want to destroy their relationship? Go away! "
Susan frowned and glared at Alina.
Regardless of the scold of the Song Family's parents, Alina still stared at Miguel quietly. Her expression was no longer noble and cold, but a little heartbroken and resolute. She slowly said to Miguel, "Miguel, I originally have some feelings for you, but this time I'm really sad and disappointed! It's all up to you decide! "
"Alina..." Miguel wanted to explain something, but he swallowed it. I don't know if he doesn't dare to say it in front of his parents or he has his own difficulties.
Leena deelply found that there was something wrong between the two of them, especially Miguel. Could he forget this old flame?
Ronald was scolding her again, but Alina was indifferent. She had been waiting for Miguel's explanation, so she had been staring at him. However, he could say nothing but call her "Alina". Her tears finally overflowed, as if she was really sad, so she turned around and left dejectedly under the scold of Ronald.
"Alina, wait!" Miguel suddenly held her hand and asked her to stay.
Leena also stared at them with her eyes wide open, which irritated her.
Ronald also scolded, "Miguel, if you dare to persuade this woman to stay, you will no longer be my son! "
Alina turned around and looked at him. Although her eyes were filled with tears, she finally showed a little expectation. She was waiting for his answer, waiting for Miguel to still love her and not to be engaged to Leena.
Ronald scolded him again, more and more loudly. He threatened that if Miguel and Alina did anything, they would abandon this son and never look for him as a father. He would not care about his life and death! Susan also helped her. Although she loved her son very much, she hated Alina very much. She was very annoyed that her son had contact with this woman, so she also helped Ronald to scold Miguel.
In the end, Miguel compromised. He let Alina down and smiled coldly, "I just want to give it back to you. I have nothing to do with you anymore!" He took out the couple carved platinum ring he bought with Alina when they were in College from his pocket and handed it to Alina.
