Emilia on the other hand just loved Praveen to the moon. She knew her husband was gonna be happy wherever he was, knowing that his loving wife was doing all she can to unite her son and Praveen. She knew that Antonio loved her and he was gonna agree to the marriage. She hadn't told him anything because it was meant to be a surprise.
"As soon as he comes, I want you to get ready." She said as the two of them got out of the house. "We will come and visit you officially. Then you and Antonio can get to know each other. We will even start arrangements for your wedding. Just get ready."
Praveen nodded. He received a warm hug from her before she finally left in her fancy car. Praveen remained standing in the door, looking at the car as it drove away. He started thinking about all that she had said, his fears and his expectations. It was scaring him a whole lot.
What if Antonio was just a stupid, egocentric pervert, he thought as he tried to control his thoughts? But there was also a huge possibility of him being nice, loving, and romantic. Some people had found love from arranged marriages and Praveen was hoping he was gonna be one of them.
"Are you all right?" Praveen heard his aunt's voice.
He slowly turned, nodded, and smiled at her. "Yes!"
"Don't lie to me." She warned, pointing at him. "I know you and I can tell something is on your mind. Did Emilia say..."
"No!" Praveen chimed in, shaking his head. Of course, Emilia was a good woman and she couldn't say anything bad to him. "She didn't say anything." He took a deep breath. "Well, she said Antonio is coming back."
"Great!" Victoria grinned, chuckling softly. "That's good news. At least, you will get to meet your husband to be. But tell me honestly," She folded her arms on her chest. "Are you happy?"
Praveen looked at his aunt and nodded as if he wasn't sure. "Yes!" He lied. "Who wouldn't be happy?"
"I know he will make you happy." She said. "Emilia's family is very good and you will be a lucky son in law to have a mother in law like her."
She patted on his back and hugged him tightly before she took him inside because she needed details of what Emilia had said to him.

"He's here!" A happy voice sounded throughout the living room. "My brother is finally here."
Everyone moved their eyes to see Andrea who came rushing back to the living room. She was a really beautiful girl, classy and really elegant. Andrea was a tall, dark-haired girl with brown eyes. She was so fashionable that it showed in her movements. Andrea was 20 years old and she was the youngest of Emilia's children, the baby of the family.
Her eldest son was Eduardo, a well-known doctor who was doing well in his career. He was 26 years old. He had decided to follow his career rather than manage his family wealth. It was left for his brother now. He was a tall cute guy with brown hair. He was married to a beautiful woman, Celine who was a tall, blonde lady. She was lovely.
In the house, there was also their grandmother who was their late father's mother. She was lovely and they loved her so much. She was a woman of wisdom.
"He's here!" Andrea chuckled happily, jumping like a little kid.
"Really?" Emilia anxiously got up as a smile shot up her face. "Are you telling the truth?"
"Would I ever lie to you, mother?" She asked with a raised eyebrow. She crossed her mother's arm with hers and held on tightly to her. "I know you are looking forward to seeing him. But I saw his car arriving and please," She pleaded, shaking her head. "Let's go and welcome him. I have missed him so much, mother..."
"Okay," Emilia raised her hands as if she was surrendering. "Let's go."
The whole family started heading outside to welcome Antonio. They had missed him so much and they were all anxious to see him, hug him and kiss him after such a long time. They were glad he had finally decided to come back for good and live with them.
The house or rather the mansion they lived in was extremely beautiful and huge. It was a three-floor, beautiful white mansion that was admired by everyone. The mansion was filled with every luxurious thing anyone could ever need. The mansion had a total of 23 rooms which were fully furnished.
There was a huge living room with a very big TV and white couches, a large kitchen with the latest equipment. The mansion was filled with servants that were at everyone's disposal although most of the time, grandmother preferred food which was cooked by herself or any other member of the family.
There was a beautiful pure silver staircase and an elevator starting from the living room to the third floor. There was also a terrace on the roof and also a pool there for relaxing. As if that wasn't enough, there was also an outdoor fire pit living room with a beautiful skylight.
The house was surrounded by a white fence and there was a tall white gate that was guarded by two armed security men. There was a beautiful garden behind the house with a fountain and a huge pool in front of the house.
In other words, the mansion had all things anyone could ever need. The Gonzalez family was just really rich.
Anyway, when the family got out of the house, they were just in time to find the car stopping right in front of the entrance. Their hearts started racing immediately. They couldn't see him from inside because the car glasses were tinted. But they were anxious as hell.
Finally, the moment they had been waiting for arrived. The guard opened the door and he came out, a handsome tall man, Antonio.
