"Alana, let's eat first. We can continue the work later."
Maria was seen waiting patiently for Alana at the door of the room. It's one in the afternoon. It's time for them to rest and eat lunch.
After working at the Aslan Group accompanying Alina, Alana joined Maria in managing several boutiques to replace Sheila, her sister's friend who had to move abroad.
Instead of dealing with essential documents in the Aslan Group, Alana enjoys working more in the boutique owned by her extended sister. She, who likes the fashion world, finds satisfaction because she can work and do what she loves simultaneously.
"Yes, Sis. It's over, really."
"Yeah, hurry up. Let's eat at the mall just down the road."
Alana, who had finished tidying up the pieces of cloth on her desk, immediately took significant steps toward Maria. Following her sister, she walked towards the parking lot where someone was already there who had been waiting for the both of them.
"Hallo Guys," said Maria, smiling happily. "Sorry if the wait is too long. Besides, it's my fault for not wanting to go in."
"No problem, just wait five minutes. I can wait for you for the rest of my life."
Alana laughed. Over time, he felt that his brother-in-law behaved very similarly to Ray.
"I was the one who arranged the cloth, Asher. I'm really sorry I was late getting to the car."
"Oh God, it's okay," said Asher. "You don't have to feel bad about anything," the man said later. "So, where are we going to have lunch now?"
"Just go to the mall in front, Ash," said Maria. "I really want to eat at the Japanese restaurant there."
Asher nodded. Without saying much, he immediately directed the black Jeep Rubicon he was driving to a mall not far from the location of his wife's boutique. As soon as they arrived, they immediately walked towards Sushi Hiro, a famous Japanese restaurant.
"So, how are you two doing? Are there any problems?" Asher asked after the man finished ordering food from one of the servers.
"Thank God it went smoothly. Next month I want to launch a new collection. I think I need to pay artists and celebgrams to promote this new collection."
While Maria and Asher were busy talking, Alana chose to remain silent. His mind was still bothered about Vivian's request to make him the honey of her husband.
Seeing the unusual behaVivianur of his sister-in-law, Asharaf was curious. The man, without hesitation, immediately rebuked and asked.
"Lana ... what are you doing?"
Alana immediately looked up. Smiling awkwardly, the woman replied.
"It's okay, sis."
"Are you sure you're okay? If there's something bothering you, just tell me. Who knows, brother can help."
Alana stared closely at Asher's face. She saw the sincerity that radiated clearly in the eyes of the Arab-blooded man. As a brother and husband figure, his brother-in-law is very reliable. Alana even once envied Maria, who could get a husband close to perfect.
"Actually I'm confused, Sis," Alana muttered softly.
"Why are you confused?" asked Maria.
"The other day I accidentally met an old friend and he asked me to be his husband's second wife."
Maria immediately choked on the water he drank. Opening his eyes, he looked directly at Alana.
"Really? Your best friend is sane, right?"
"I also think he's crazy, sis. How can there be a normal wife who wants her husband to be shared with other women?"
"Yes, so?"
"She won't be able to have children. Her womb was removed several years ago. Meanwhile, before marriage, her husband had aspirations to have many children because he was the first child and in his extended family, no one had given birth to children."
"Oh My God." Maria shook his head, hearing what Alana said. "But why should it be you, Lana? There aren't any other girls in this world?"
"I asked that too," said Alana. "But she wants her husband's second wife to be of the same Ba'alawy descent. Besides, my best friend knows that I used to have a crush on her husband when I was in college," Alana said with her face downcast.
"Who is her husband?" Asher asked. He, who had been silent for a few moments, returned to his voice and was also made curious.
"His name is Elbarack Knight. If I'm not mistaken, he's a doctor at Asher's hospital."
"OH MY GOD...." Asher unconsciously exclaimed softly. He was surprised to hear the name Alana had just conveyed. "Elbarack is a neurologist at the hospital. Personally, he's a really good person. He's really close to Aleandro, your brother's beloved ex."
Maria glanced at him. Squint and then chuckle. Why did her husband suddenly mention his ex?
"It's just careless to say."
"It's true, right?" Asher answered quickly. "If I hadn't recited the verse of the chair many times before, maybe until now, you still like to think about Aleandro."
Laughter immediately fell from Alana's lips. Meanwhile, irritated Maria immediately pinched Asher's arm until her husband groaned in pain.
"You think I've been possessed all this time? You husband has no morals!"
"But back to Elbarack, I advise you not to be careless, Alana," continued Asher. "Even though you used to have a crush on Elbarack, the story is very different now. He already has a partner. Even if his wife tries to unite you, being fair isn't easy. It's easy to marry multiple women.
But being able to be as fair as possible with all wives is a challenging task to do. There's bound to be one of them getting hurt."
Hearing Asher's explanation again, Alana could only remain silent. Before long, his cell phone rang. One crucial call forced him to respond immediately as soon as possible.
