2. Six months before

"Since the beginning, Mommy don't agree that you should marry Elise. Now it is proven, Mommy's hunch is correct. Until now, she is not pregnant?" Rena — Brian's mother, spoke in a harsh and quite high tone.

Told her son that She disagreed from the start and now everything is proven. That her son's choice to marry Elise was a wrong decision. Even Rena don't care if in the family room, there was Elise who sat beside Brian. I don't care about the feelings of her daughter-in-law who is always hurt and hurt by all the sharp words as well as Rena's insults.

"Mom, I told you. Elise and I don't want to have children yet." Brian gave an excuse. He didn't want his mother to corner Elise even more. The man's right hand firmly gripped Elise's left hand on his thigh.

"What do you mean you don't want to have children yet? You're thirty years old, Brian. You and Elise have been married for five years, but why isn't she pregnant until now? Or maybe Mommy's guess is right, your wife is infertile?" Again Rena spoke in a high and sharp tone to corner her daughter-in-law. Like a razor blade that was deliberately pulled out to cut Elise's heart.

Since a long time ago, that middle-aged woman did not like Elise. According to Rena, Elise didn't get along with her son at all. The origin of the girl is unclear. She only knows the fact that the girl is an orphan who grew up in an orphanage on the outskirts of Jakarta.

In stark contrast to the Son who has very good quality seeds, weight and weight. Who is the President Director of Fernandez Corporation.

Elise is just a girl with a private high school graduate who previously worked as a waitress in the company canteen of the Fernandez Corporation. She met the man in an unexpected incident which resulted in Brian falling in love and wanting her to be his wife.

Brian and Elise love each other. They were in love for a year. Until finally Brian proposed and married her. Although Rena opposed their relationship, Brian insisted and secretly married Elise. Rena could not do anything other than continue to corner her daughter-in-law.

After five years of their marriage, Elise is still not pregnant. This was used by Rena to press and corner Elise. Demanding Brian to divorce the woman. Things Brian would never do, because he loves his wife so much. But he also couldn't keep quiet hearing his mother cornering and demanding that from Elise.

Brian and Elise have done various things. They have also checked their condition to the hospital to find out their respective fertility. And it turns out that Elise has a little problem with her uterus that makes it difficult for her to get pregnant.

But Brian hides that fact from Rena. He doesn't want his mother to know and demands Brian to divorce Elise immediately.

"Mom, I'm sure Elise will be pregnant. We just need to try harder."

"You keep saying that. But what's the proof? It's been five years, Brian!"

Brian just looked down, unable to argue with his mother's words. The man still loves and respects his mother. One time he rebelled against his mother by desperately marrying Elise and now he doesn't want to do that anymore. For him, Rena and Elise are the two most meaningful women in his life. He won't be able to choose one of the two of them.

"Mommy already wants to cradle her grandchildren, Brian. Mommy's friends already have grandchildren. And Mommy is also old. Do you want Mommy to die without ever meeting your child?"

"Mom!" shouted Brian displeased with Rena's words just now. He was really not happy to hear Rena say the word 'died'. He loved her very much.

"Mom, don't talk like that. Mommy can definitely carry my child."

"That's why you have to follow what Mommy says. Get a divorce from Elise."

"Mom!" Brian shouted again in protest. He can't possibly divorce Elise. He loved that woman very much.

"I can't divorce Elise, Mom. I really love her."

"If you don't want to divorce Elise, then you have to remarry."

"Mom," Brian whispered. He is really in a dilemma right now. Both of his mother's choices were burdensome for him. He couldn't possibly divorce Elise, nor did he want to remarry. He didn't want to hurt his wife by marrying another woman.

Understand the dilemma her husband is having. Elise tightened their grips.

"Mom, give me some more time. I'm sure I'll get pregnant soon."

Brian immediately turned his head to Elise. Staring closely at the woman's face who smiled sweetly at him.

"You always say the same thing. False promises that until now you have never fulfilled. Do you know how important Brian's son is in the Fernandez family? The child is the successor and heir to the big name of the Fernandez Family. He is very important. If Brian does not have children , that would break the lineage of this great family. Didn't you think about that ?! "

Elise closed her eyes for a moment, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. She also knows how important Brian's child is. Because Brian is the only successor to this family. Brian is an only child and he has no other siblings. But the Fernandez family is a respectable family with abundant wealth. Seven generations of endless wealth.

Elise opened her eyes and strengthened her heart for this decision she was about to make. "Give me one more year, Mom. I promise to be pregnant."

"If not?" demanded Rena who again cornered Elise.

"If not, I'm willing Brian to remarry and have a second wife."

Immediately Rena also sparkled with joy at the words of her daughter-in-law. She won't waste this opportunity.

Brian was surprised and wanted to protest Elise's decision. But Rena did not let it and immediately spoke.

"You heard that Brian. Elise promised Mommy herself. If she doesn't get pregnant after one year from today, then you will have to remarry. Marry the woman Mommy's choice."
