CHAPTER 19: EMERALD VILLAGE 2

Damari who was angry with his father ran to his mother and get comforted there.

Noreen had fainted the second she heard that her ger son was nowhere to be found. Damari wasn't the only child she had but she was still worried about him the most as Damari was spoiled from a young age.

She only felt relieved when she heard the news that Damari returned home safe, she felt very happy and grateful to Alita who had brought her child home but she couldn't meet her as her husband had to talk to them first.

So, she had been waiting anxiously in her villa for some news. So, when she heard that Damari was crying and running towards her villa, she stopped what she was doing and rushed out to meet him.

Damari threw himself in his mother's arms and cried pitifully there. Noreen didn't know who made her son sad and it didn't matter who the person is, she was just so angry she wanted to teach that person a lesson.

Damari let out all of his emotions until his eyes were red and puffy. Noreen seeing that Damari was not okay, coaxed her youngest into the house as she didn't want him to catch a cold.

After settling her ger son on the couch she instructed the maid to get some water and cloth to wipe his face. Damari just sat there and let his mother clean him up. He was just too sad to do anything and being with his mother really helped a lot.

"Are you going to tell your mommy what happened?" Noreen asked softly as she wanted to know what was really happening.

"Mommy, do you think that I am likable?" Damari asked without an ounce of confidence in his voice.

Noreen felt as if her heart had been pricked, why was her son doubting himself all of a sudden, "darling, you are the most lovable person in the world. Who doesn't have eyes to like you? Is it that fermar who saved you?"

Noreen will never allow anyone to hurt her son's self-esteem, how can someone let her baby doubt himself like that but she never expected to hear her son defending that Alita person so quickly and in a rush way.

"No, no, it is not her. she had been very good to me and if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be back home. You don't know how much I was crying, I ......"

Noreen had tears in her eyes as she listened to the trouble her baby went through after escaping from home. She laughed when she heard about the prayer Damari made when he was hurt.

Her tears were streaming down her cheeks but some of the things she was hearing just made her want to laugh. She knew that it wasn't ideal and good for the situation but she just couldn't help herself.

Her attitude towards Alita also improved as she appreciated how Alita helped her child and how she reprimanded Damari when she learned that Damari escaped from home.

Now she could understand why her son was being like this. Damari was in love with Alita and her husband might have stirred trouble and made Alita look negatively on Damari.

"So, tell me what you want and mommy will give it to you," Noreen spoke in a coaxing tone as she was willing to give her son the world if he wanted it.

Damari's eyes lit up when he heard this, so he quickly told his mother before she changed her mind, "I want to get married to Alita, do you think that can be done?"

Noreen wasn't shocked by this request at all, it made her feel very sad and happy at the same time but she had to know more about this Alita, and talking with her husband will help.

"I will help you convince your dad, just go and sleep and tomorrow I will give you an answer," Noreen said as she really needed some time to investigate Alita before she can send her son to someone else.

Since his mother had promised, Damari went to bed happily and in a great mood.

On the other side, Alita loved her room so much and decided to talk to Sanyah as she had not talked to the other for a while now. The married couple chatted for an hour before Sanyah hung up as she was going to coax Kim to bed.

Alita finally went to bed and decided to see what will happen the next day when it arrives. She was also planning on going back since she couldn't buy anything then she might as well return back home and maybe in the future when she was someone, she will come and ask for Damari's hand in marriage and make him hers, that is if he was still single.

That same night, Noreen was graced by her husband who wanted to hear about Damari's mood and whether he was okay. Noreen told her husband about the truth and the king was upset when he heard it.

"Damari wants to marry Alita and this is the first time that he has voiced out his own opinion. You saw this Alita person, how is she like?" Noreen wanted what was best for her child, so she decided to hear from her husband about this person.

The king looked at his third wife and sighed, how could he not guess what was in Noreen's mind?

He wasn't the only one who cared about Damari but all of them did. They wanted the best for him and this included his marriage. Having him marry a fermar was something that he didn't want.

If the partner was a man, then he would positively look at this. Just having his ger son married to a fermar just made him upset and he didn't want that. In the end, he summarized everything on Alita and Noreen didn't find Alita a sore as the other was very honest about everything from the start.

They didn't have to hate the other as she didn't even come here for marriage but just escorted their child after saving him. The way Alita had been treated was not good and now she understood why Damari asked her that question. Even if it was her who was interested in a person and gets roasted like that, the like meter will just drop.

"She is an interesting person and I think I like her," Noreen smiled as she said that.

"But she is a ....."

"As long as Damari is happy then that is all that matters, how about we give Alita a chance and see where she is going. We shouldn't judge the book by its cover," Noreen tried to change her husband's mind.

The king knew that Noreen had decided and he also wanted the best for Damari so just like what she suggested, he was going to give it a try.
