Chapter 40

A month later.
 Now, this is the event that Axel and his family have been waiting for, especially for Natalia and her father. They got married today.
 The event was simple, and they held the event in the village. This was Natalia's request; she didn't want it to be too luxurious, but it had a majestic impression to it.
 After the ceremony was finished, they welcomed the guests who came. To go to the reception.
 "Are you tired?" Axel asked, looking at Natalia, who was sitting in a chair. Since earlier, so many guests have come that it has become overwhelming to welcome them.
 "My child!" said Mrs. Anne and Mr. Albert, who had just come to meet them. Mrs. Anne hugged her son's body tightly. She was touched now that Axel was married.
 "Congratulations, darling, I hope you are always happy and have children soon!" said Mrs. Anne. She smiled at Axel. Axel nodded and only smiled in return.
 "Mother's daughter-in-law," Mrs. Anne hugged and kissed Natalia gently. Mrs. Anne welcomed him very well.
 "Very beautiful," praised Mrs. Anne, Natalia smiled at that
 "You are wonderful too," answered Natalia. Mrs. Anne hugged her once again.
 “Oh yes, Melani and Antonio came quite late in the day. Right now, they're on business," said Mr. Albert, conveying the message from Antonio. Axel just nodded without interest.
 "Come on, daughter-in-law, accompany me." Mrs. Anne pulled Natalia's hand to accompany her, and Mr. Albert and Axel shook their heads. See their behavior.
 "You're finally married, Axel. Dad didn't expect you to get married so quickly," said the father, patting Axel on the shoulder. It was only a few months ago that she last met Axel, and now she has received the news of marriage.
 Axel smiled. “Maybe it's time for me to meet my soulmate. Just pray, Dad, so that I can make it to the end of my life," said Axel. Mr. Albert nodded and prayed.
 "Hello, Mr. Albert, long time no see," said Mr. Jeff, who happened to have just finished taking care of the front. They shook hands, friendly
 “How's your farm going, Mr. Jeff? It feels like it's getting better," said Mr. Albert. Mr. Jeff only answered with a slight chuckle.
 "Yes, hopefully, it will increase, in contrast to your son's field, which has improved far above mine," said Mr. Jeff, glancing at Axel.
 "Mr. Jeff can do it, and this is also your teaching, right?" Axel replied.
 They laughed happily. Discussing whatever they discussed would definitely make them happy. There is nothing wrong if they chat because they are separated by distance and time.
 This is just the right time for them to joke with each other.
 It's different at Melani's place, and she is already preparing to attend Axel's wedding. The look on Melani's face looked unpleasant, as if there was something hidden.
 "Axel is married now," said Melani, sadness continuing to surround her. There would be no more the Axel he knew. Now he will definitely be in the village more often, together with his new family.
 "Let's go! You took so long to dress up!" Antonio snapped, surprising Melani. She immediately walked quickly to follow Antonio into the car.
 Melani was far from happy. Even when she heard the news that Axel was getting married, it was clear that she was hurt. But she couldn't turn back time, let Axel be happy even if it wasn't with her.
 "There, don't say anything unless I tell you to," said Antonio. Melani just nodded briefly without answering anything.
 "Hope you are happy, Axel."
 Antonio and Melani have arrived at the wedding venue, and this is the first time Melani has come to Axel's house. After a long time not coming.
 Melani can see many changes, starting from the shape of the house. And others have changed. Melani was greeted warmly by the people there until their eyes met Axel, who was sitting with his family.
 “Congratulations, Axel,” Melani said, congratulations Axel.
 Axel was silent momentarily, looking at Melani, who was far from rising. Her body was skinny, her lips were pale, and she wasn't like she used to be.
 Axel immediately tried to neutralize himself, hiding his shock. "Yes, thank you," answered Axel briefly.
 "Congratulations to you too. I hope you can have children soon," said Melani to Natalia, and they shook hands. Natalia smiled
 "Yeah, you too," he replied.
 "Melani, come sit here." Mrs. Anne called Melani to sit beside her while Antonio and Axel looked at each other with sharp gazes.
 "Finally married to someone else," whispered Antonio. Axel held back his emotions, as best as possible, not answering Antonio's words.
 “Don't throw a tantrum at my event!” Axel whispered.
 Antonio just smiled sarcastically, and he immediately sat close to his family.
 "You said you would come in the afternoon. If you knew like that, we would just come here together," said Mrs. Anne, remembering the message Antonio had given her.
 "While my business is finished, I'd better come here," replied Antonio. They just nodded briefly.
 Natalia sat next to Melani, and she looked sorry to see Melani, who was so thin. She even saw bruises on her wrist
 “Natalia, will you come to town sometime, okay? We'll have a holiday there," said Mrs. Anne, looking at Natalia and Melani in turn. "So you two are close to each other," she added.
 Natalia nodded. "Yes, ma'am, Axel and I will definitely come to town. If Axel isn't busy later," answered Natalia.
 “This is Axel's ex? Why is she so worried right now," thought Natalia, who kept wondering, really feeling sorry for Melani.
 Melani has been silent since then, not making any sound. Remember Antonio's message, which forbade him to say anything.
 "This is a drink for the two of you," said Axel, who suddenly came with two bottles of drink, which he gave to Melani and Antonio.
 "Thank you, Axel," answered Melani with a smile given to her. Axel only responded by nodding his head.
 Natalia, who saw Melani smiling at Axel, suddenly became slightly annoyed. Maybe she is jealous of her.
 "I'm already an ex, still smiling like that," annoyed Natalia. She also knows that Melani is Axel's ex, who made Axel do crazy things but didn't appreciate it.
 They chatted, and Mr. Albert and Mrs. Anne were proud. They are now a big family because their two children are married.
 "Later, if possible, you can have a child together, okay?" said Mrs. Anne. The atmosphere became chaotic again because their laughter had not stopped since earlier.
 "Well, no one knows when good fortune will come," replied Melani, although in a low voice. She was about to laugh, but Antonio immediately looked at her sharply. So Melani gave up her intention to laugh.
 Natalia could only remain silent, looking at Melani. She was a little jealous, considering that Melani was Axel's ex.
