"I will not forgive you if anything happens to Anna," said Devan in a voice that sounded very cold, then walked away and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Seira froze on the spot, the first time she saw Devan looking at her like that. And what the man said also reached the ears of Grandma and the others. Makes anyone frown in confusion.
"What happened to him, Seira? What have you done?" asked Grandma right after Seira landed her body on the chair next to her.
"Oh, it's okay Grandma. I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do," the middle-aged woman replied with a clumsy smile.
"Who's Anna?" Lana joined the conversation.
"Why does Devan look so angry?" she added again.
"Ah, she's just an insignificant woman. You don't have to worry about anything," replied Seira.
"Has Devan had another woman besides Byanca all this time?" asked Lana in a voice that sounded very serious, ignoring Seira's previous words.
Seira suddenly became silent, but only a few seconds later spoke again, "Hmm, don't think about it. Usually, kids nowadays like to do useless things. After all, I've already taken care of it, so don't think about anything," she said.
"Our daughter's wedding will still take place, Lana. Isn't that right, Mom?" she added.
The old woman just kept silent and did not respond to her daughter-in-law's words.
Seeing such a response, Seira sighed harshly. "Besides, there's no way I'd let my grandson be born without a father," she said with a smile. He had to say this to reassure everyone that Devan and Byanca's relationship was still fine.
"Grandson? What are you saying? What do you mean?" Serly chimed in that very second, her brow furrowed in confusion. Everyone who was there also felt the same way, not to mention Lana who was Byanca's mother.
"Wow, looks like there's a serious discussion behind me," Melvin suddenly appeared and joined in.
Everyone just glanced at the middle-aged man without any intention of replying, then looked back at Seira questioningly.
"Byanca is pregnant with Devan's child," said Seira in the end.
And her words managed to make everyone freeze on the spot. Including Melvin who suddenly stopped his steps.
"W-what do you mean?" Grandma stammered, the old woman was the first to wake up from her shock.
"How did you know?" Serly replied.
"Have you forgotten that I am a doctor?" replied Seira
"Maybe she's only a few weeks pregnant, I'm pretty sure of this. That's why, every day I go out and visit Devan's house, just worried about Byanca's condition."
"I want to hide this matter from you and will say it after the wedding. It's just, the way you looked at me earlier forced me to reveal this fact," she added.
"And I thought that this was the only thing that could convince you of all that I said. That Anna was nothing, she was just an insignificant woman. I've taken care of it, so you don't have to worry, I make sure this marriage will still take place," Seira said at length.
"Thank God it's like that. I hope what you say is true, Seira," Lana replied with a sigh.
"So, I will have a grandchild, soon?" Grandma smiled broadly, seemed very happy with the news given by Seira.
"What if this marriage just hastened? I can't wait," she added.
"I did mean to tell you guys today, it's just that I never expected Leo to have an accident."
"Okay, at least wait until Leo gets out of here," said Serly, nodding in agreement.
"Hmm, I agree."
And finally, they made a new deal, without asking Devan's approval.
Seira cheered cheerfully in her heart, this was what she wanted. Wanted to make Byanca her daughter-in-law as soon as possible.
She was worried that if she put it off any longer, all her dreams of a perfect daughter-in-law like Byanca would be gone. Not only that, but she also does this for the happiness of her son 'Devan'.
Having a wife from a respected, intelligent, and classy family-like Byanca, wouldn't also add more value to Devan? Seira grew impatient for her son's wedding day.
But before that, she had to get rid of Anna secretly, and without anyone knowing. Yes, she had to do that, no matter what, she didn't want that cheap woman to be a hindrance to Devan's marriage, let alone her daughter-in-law.
Her son was a perfect man, marrying him off to a lowly woman like Anna, has the world gone mad?
Devan only suits women like Byanca, a perfect match in her eyes.
Having all those thoughts, Seira cracked a faint smile. And it didn't go unnoticed by everyone.
"Doesn't this decision sound very selfish?" Melvin suddenly interrupted.
"I know your good intentions, I even agree to it. Who doesn't know Byanca? The perfect woman from a prominent family. But deciding on something like this without discussing it with Devan and Byanca, I don't think this is right," he added.
"If you think about it, there's no need to worry. I'm pretty sure Devan and Byanca would agree to this and might be very pleased."
"Did you forget? Byanca is pregnant with Devan's child, Melvin. Marrying them as soon as possible is the right decision," added Seira again trying to convince Leo's father. Yes, it was. She didn't have the slightest doubt about it.
Seira thought that Devan really loved Byanca, and Anna's presence only distracted him a little. Even so, she firmly believed that what Devan felt was only temporary, because she had always known that her son loved Byanca so much and she didn't want Anna's presence to make Devan forget his feelings.
As a good mother, Seira doesn't want her son to suffer. She was doing all this solely for Devan's good, and also to fulfill her desires.
At least that's how Seira feels right now. The middle-aged woman had no idea what Byanca and Devan's relationship was like at the moment, although she felt a little awkward with the way the two were interacting, she tried to ignore it as much as possible.
Their relationship is still fine. "Well, we will continue this discussion at home later. This is a hospital, we shouldn't discuss important things like this here. Leo is still sick," said Grandma interceding.
And the old woman's words were nodded by the others.
There was silence for a few seconds before Serly spoke again, "Then I'll go inside first."
"Me too," said Seira immediately stood up from her position and followed Serly who had entered the room where Leo was being treated.
