Chapter 590 - Lowering Your Pride
"I don't care about you anymore!" Tara didn't want to answer him. She turned her back and went upstairs.
The room was still the same as before. Every day Hana always cleaned it in case Tara suddenly came and stayed overnight.
??Nico chased her into the room. Seeing Tara taking her pajamas and towels, Nico started to take off his clothes.
"What are you doing?" Tara looked at him warily.
"Shower with you," Nico replied.
"Who the hell wants to shower with you?" Tara glared at him fiercely.
"We've never had a bath together. How about we use the jacuzzi in my room? We can relax and talk with cool heads," Nico didn't give Tara a chance to refuse and immediately carried her to the main room.
"Nico, can you calm down and listen to me?" Tara felt even more panicked.
"You are tired. Take a shower and relax. We can discuss anything without fighting," Nico opened the tap and began to fill his bathtub.
Tara wanted to leave the bathroom, but Nico held her hand.
"What do you want? I don't want to bathe with you," Tara said.
"Are you still angry with me because of Raisa's problem? Or are you angry that I couldn't control myself last night?" Nico immediately cornered her against the wall, leaving Tara unable to escape.
Tara's back was against the cold wall. Nico's handsome face was facing her with a serious look.
"Nico, do you really love me? You have a fiancée, but you didn't think about me and went to the hotel without thinking about the consequences. Many people called me and sent messages to me saying they felt sorry for me. Some of them confessed their feelings to me and said that they would appreciate me much more than you. Then, last night I was drunk and you…" Tara stopped talking.
"Spill everything," Nico kissed Tara gently on the cheek and let her vent her frustration.
"I'm not a close-minded person. But something like that should only be done between people who love each other and in a conscious state. Do you think it's cool to take your chance when I'm drunk? And today too, you said that I was pregnant to get in the way of Ivan and Raisa's marriage. Do you really think about my feelings?" Tara asked angrily.
"I am sorry. Hit me and scold me until you're satisfied!" Nico lifted Tara up and looked at her face. But before her hand could hit the man in the face, Tara only clenched it right away.
"I'm serious. I was really embarrassed when you said I was pregnant. How am I supposed to face everyone now? How should I face my grandfather? Do you think that being pregnant outside of marriage is nothing to be ashamed of?" Tara's eyes turned red.
"My mother is not well today. I will ask her and grandfather to visit your grandfather's house tomorrow, asking your grandfather's permission to legally marry you. I promise I will be more careful next time so that something like this doesn't happen again. But regarding last night's problem, I have no intention of apologizing. It's because I love you so much. I've been waiting for you for two years and can't wait anymore."
After saying that, Nico didn't wait for Tara's reaction and immediately lowered his head, kissing her in the lips.
As the hot water started to fill the bathtub, the room filled with steam, making it look even more intoxicating.
Tara didn't have the strength to fight Nico and could only take the man's attack after attack.
The water in the bathtub could not hold their movement so that it made the floor wet from the splash.
They did it until the hot water got colder.
After a while, Tara could only lie weakly in Nico's arms. "Nico... Do you really love me?"
Nico's hand hugged Tara tightly as he whispered in her ear. "I love you so much. I really really love you. Marry me."
"I'll think about it," Tara didn't want to immediately answer Nico.
"What else do you need to think about?" Nico asked as he carried Tara out of the bathroom. All this time, Tara had never been in Nico's bed.
Although they had lived together for a while, Tara wanted separate beds.
Now she was lying in Nico's big bed, not a sheet covering her body, just as the man beside her.
In the big bed, Nico repeatedly showed his love to Tara, as if he wanted to prove that he really loved her.
Tara couldn't keep up with Nico's stamina and shouted angrily, "This is so tormenting! You are not sincere to me!"
"I've given my all to you. Why are you still not able to see my sincerity?" Nico asked.
"Who in their right mind proposed to their lover in bed, you bastard!" Tara glared at Nico angrily.
Her stiffness made Nico laugh out loud. "I understand. Just be patient because I will surprise you and propose to you in an extraordinary way."
"No need. I still won't accept your proposal," Tara snorted irritably.
"I promise to make you happy," Nico said, hugging Tara.
To have her on his bed was like putting back the missing pieces that once disappeared from his life.
Previously, he felt that his bed felt so large and lonely. As it turned out, it was because this bed awaited his soulmate.
"Don't be noisy. I'm sleepy." Tara was so exhausted that she had no intention of returning to her room. After a while, she fell into a deep sleep.
…
The next morning, Anya received a call from Hana, calling her over for breakfast.
What a coincidence, she thought. Anya also wanted to deliver Nadine's car to her. As soon as she arrived at Aiden's house, she saw Harris and Nadine walking hand in hand, about to enter the house.
"It seems like something happened last night," Anya said on purpose.
Harris just smiled shyly while Nadine raised their linked hands proudly. "We are dating!"
"Harris, my uncle told you to look after Nadine and educate her, not to tease her," Nico suddenly appeared.
"We love each other," Harris said, not ashamed to show his feelings like the first time Anya caught them holding hands earlier.
"Nadine, you are a member of the Atmajaya Family! Don't lower your standard!" Nico looked at Harris coldly.
Initially, it was Aiden's mother who brought Hana to the Atmajaya family. When she first came to the Atmajaya family home, Hana brought her son, Harris. But no one knew who the father was.
Since Aiden's mother protected Hana and she had done excellent work, Bima trusted her a lot.
In the Atmajaya Family, not a single person considered Hana and Harris to be servants. They were already family members.
But Hana always remembered her identity and reminded Harris to stay aware of themselves.
Now, Harris and Nadine were dating out of a sudden. Nico couldn't take it.
In Nico's eyes, Harris was a servant's son who wanted to marry their master's daughter, almost looking as if he had a hidden agenda behind it.
He couldn't deny Harris's talent. He knew it since he had known Harris since childhood. Harris was a responsible man and had a very good character.
But no matter how good Harris was, he didn't deserve Nadine.
So what if Nadine was his father's illegitimate child?
She was still a member of the Atmajaya Family. Who would dare insult Nadine Atmajaya?
But Harris was a different case. He did not have a family background equal to the Atmajaya family. His father was unknown and his mother was only a servant here. His current job was to serve the Atmajaya family and he also got his house from Aiden.
It could be said that the Atmajaya family had given a lot to support him. But he was still greedy and wanted Nadine.
Nico totally opposed their relationship.
"What's wrong with me dating Harris? He is handsome, hardworking, kind and talented. Better to take care of your own business!" Nadine took Harris' hand and led him still into the house, too lazy to care about Nico.
"This kid I swear...! I did everything for you. You're the daughter of a respected family, the Atmajaya Family! But you chose to demote yourself and date…" Before Nico could finish his sentence, Tara pinched him very hard.
