Eda was looking at Serkan with an open mouth, dreading what was going to come next, when a loud squeak broke the silence. She moved her gaze to Aydan Bolat and, to her even bigger shock, the woman clapped her hands, jumping in excitement while Kemal Bolat smiled at both of them.
"Oh, I should've known it! This is so perfect!" Aydan exclaimed, hugged her husband, and went around the desk to embrace Eda and Serkan, pushing their faces together. "Who else couldn't be more perfect for Serkan than our Eda? If I only thought about this earlier, I would make you two meet years ago!"
The woman was waving her cheeks with happy tears in her eyes, and Eda managed to close her mouth not to look stupid in front of her bosses and, from now on, her future in-laws.
"Welcome in the family, kizim." Kemal approached them and first hugged Eda, and next gave his son a strong path on the back, smirking at him. "I knew you will turn out good, eventually. Now, you two have to finally come for dinner today. We will talk about the details later, but now, we need to start the meeting. I want to announce happy news to the board personally."
Eda was still so shocked that she only nodded, watching how Kemal left the office, followed by his crying from happines wife, when Serkan left her hand and ran after his mother.
"Mom, can you call your friend? I need the design I sent him to be ready as soon as possible." He said under his breath.
Aydan's eyes widened for a second before she glanced at Eda, who was too stunned to understand anything they were talking about, and answered in a whisper. "Of course, I will text him right now. Does he know what design you have in mind?"
"Yes." Serkan grinned and, when his mother left, he turned to Eda, who was looking at an undefined point on the wall. "Baby? Can we go?"
"What was that?!" She yelled, suddenly returning to her senses and smacked Serkan on his arm. "You can't do that!"
"Sorry, baby, it was emergency. I had to act fast. We will put out a statement, and the crisis will be averted in an hour." He embraced her with a big smile on his face, not even taken a back by her aggressive frown. "And then I will kill the person who sold those pictures."
"It's not about that!" She smacked Serkan's arm again.
He wasn't surprised by her action, either. He only smiled brighter. "Don't you want to get married to me?"
"Of course I want! This is not my point!" Eda exclaimed, now blushing, realizing how easily Serkan was able to make her agree to anything, even marriage.
Did he cast a spell on her or what? Of course, she wanted to be his wife. She had never thought about it before, but it sounded like an obvious next step. She was still in shock at what this man did to her.
"So?" He cocked his brows, smiling smugly, when Eda got lost in her thoughts, now gently stroking Serkan's arm in the place she hit him.
"You should've asked me first."
"I will." Serkan quickly leaned toward her to kiss her and, still holding her by her waist, led her out of the office, going toward the conference room.
"Eda!" Ceren called, running toward her and panting as if she crossed all the floors from her office to the top of the buildings using stairs. She hesitated for a second after noticing Serkan, but when she looked at their faces and his hands around Eda's waist, she relaxed. "Hi, Serkan."
"Did you take care of that tabloids scum?" He asked in a serious voice. "I want all of them sued."
"Yes, everything is taken down, and we already filed all the lawsuits. They had an external source, and all pictures came from it. Give my team one hour more, and we will have that person."
