"Isn't Raka a good guy? But he doesn't like Jenny. I'm not bad either, but I don't love her. There are lots of nice guys out there, but you're the only guy who really loves her. The man who can give her happiness is the man who truly loves her. Everything else is not a problem."
After saying that, Rudi patted Jonathan on the shoulder. "It's late already. Let's go ho."
"Where's Jenny?" Jonathan didn't dare to face Jenny again.
"Aiden picked her up. He found out about Jenny's feelings for you. If the Atmajaya Family opposed it, sothing would definitely happen in the near future," said Rudi.
What Jonathan didn't expect was that he never saw her again after Jenny confessed her feelings for him.
If Jenny didn't call him first, Jonathan wouldn't call her either.
But the man still rembered that night well.
The night when Jenny confessed her love.
The night when Jenny tried to kiss her on the lips.
The night he held her soft cheek... He rembered everything well.
Her smile kept appearing in his mind. She was like an innocent child, free of any burden...
This week, Jenny was forced to return to the Atmajaya Family's main house and was forbidden to go out.
Bima confiscated her cell phone and forbade her to use it. Every day, she played chess with Bima or painted with Maria.
Aiden left her work to soone else so Jenny didn't have to co to the office.
One week was not a short ti for Jenny. It feels so long…
Sunday has arrived. Apart from Nico who was busy filming, all mbers of the Atmajaya family gathered to have lunch together.
Before lunch, Jenny accompanies Bima to play chess, hoping to please him.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with Jonathan Srijaya? Why doesn't Grandpa like him?" Jenny had been holding this question for a week. When she found out that Aiden and Ivan were coming today, she thought that one of them would help her talk to Bima.
"He's an illegitimate child," said Bima as he moved his chess pieces.
"What's wrong with an illegitimate child? Aunt Raisa is from the Mahendra Family, but the Mahendra Family has never questioned Uncle Ivan's identity. Why don't you want to acknowledge Jonathan when you actually really like him?" Jenny asked.
"Why do you even compare your uncle with Jonathan?" Bima said angrily.
"What is the difference? You're too picky, grandpa. You're okay with uncle Ivan being an illegitimate child just because he's your son. But if soone else were to share the sa identity, you suddenly can't accept it," Jenny retorted angrily.
"Darn you. After enduring for so many days, you're still defending him," Bima laughed. "I don't have a bad feeling about him though."
"Then why can't you accept him? Jonathan took over the Srijaya Group on his own terms. In just a short ti, he was able to raise his company to this point. I'm not bad either. I am patient and understanding. And most importantly, I feel comfortable with him. I love him," Jenny said everything she wanted to say.
"Do you like him?" Bima put down his pawn and said happily, "Checkmate! You lose."
"Who said I lost? I can still move!" Jenny advanced her horse pawn.
Bima looked at her with a smile. "You're free to make a move on . Look again. I told you it's a checkmate!"
"Grandpa! You cheated! You deliberately invited to talk so I wouldn't focus. It doesn't count!" Jenny rearranged her pieces in annoyance. "Let's play one more ti."
"One more ti. If you win, I will grant your request. But if you lose, you have to study abroad for two years," said Bima.
"Why do I have to study abroad? I'm going to get old faster," said Jenny.
"You want to be with Jonathan, but he needs a woman who can help him, not a clueless little girl. If you don't want to bother him, you have to grow up and be mature."
Bima is very cunning. Actually, he doesn't like Jonathan because the man already has a child. But he didn't say it. He deliberately wanted to keep Jenny away from Jonathan.
"I've worked at Atmajaya company. Even when I didn't study abroad, I was able to help Jonathan. I definitely won't bother him," Jenny said confidently. "As long as I can win, will you really grant my wish?"
"Yes. Let's play," Bima smiled.
Aiden arrived with Anya and their two sons, so ti after Ivan and Raisa's arrival.
Raisa imdiately approached Anya and took her hand. "Don't bother them. This ga is about Jenny's life. If you disturb them, we will be blad later."
Anya nodded. Seeing that their chess ga was not over yet, she imdiately took Arka and Aksa away so as not to disturb them. She was worried that her naughty twins would ss up the ga.
Ever since Nico left for filming, it was Nadine and Harris who always accompanied Tara.
The three of them ca together. And as soon as they entered the house, Anya imdiately invited them to sit in the family room.
"Mother, what's wrong? Why are grandpa and Jenny playing chess? They look like they are at war," Nadine said in a low voice.
"Jenny made a bet with your grandfather. If she wins, your grandfather will grant her wish. If she loses, she has to study abroad for two years," Maria said with a smile.
When Anya heard that Jenny was going to study abroad, she looked at Aiden with deep eyes. "Are you…"
"I can't hide anything from this family, can I?" Aiden didn't deny.
Once he found out that Jenny liked Jonathan, Aiden imdiately reported it to Bima.
This week, Jenny was detained at the Atmajaya Family's ho. Bima checked Jonathan every ti and found out if the man was trying to approach Jenny. But apparently, Jonathan did nothing.
In fact, Jenny was the first to speak up and defend him.
The Atmajaya family couldn't bla Jonathan if Jenny liked him. Even the man had been careful in his manners and didn't get too close to her.
However, unfortunately, it was Jenny who took the initiative to always approach and et him.
After he confiscated Jenny's cell phone, Bima asked soone to check the contents of their conversation, either through chat or by phone. Fortunately, they were only exchanging support and consolation, nothing outlandish or inappropriate.
From this, Bima knew that Jonathan was a good man. Plus, he was very charming. That's why Jenny was attracted to him.
On the other hand, judging from his current condition, Jonathan would never consider Jenny as his life partner.
Now that the Srijaya Group is growing quite well and Jonathan has a young daughter, he clearly has too much on his hands alone.
He didn't have ti to fall in love and he couldn't choose a childish partner who couldn't understand his current situation.
That's why the Atmajaya Family couldn't do anything to Jonathan. They couldn't warn him not to approach Jenny because Jonathan never took the initiative to approach her first.
"You want to send her to study abroad so that Jenny doesn't co close to Jonathan again?" Anya had no idea that the Atmajaya Family was planning to send Jenny away from Indonesia, to separate her from Jonathan.
