"Tomorrow," Jenny answered, looking at Jonathan with burning eyes. "If you don't let me go, I can stay here for you."

"I will be very busy tomorrow so I can't take you. Be careful," Jonathan said with a forced smile.

Jenny felt her eyes sting. She lifted her head and took a deep breath. "The squid is too spicy, my eyes are hot!"

Jonathan looked at the squid on the plate. He didn't remember adding any spicy seasoning.

"Do you want to drink?" He asked, offering a drink.

Jenny didn't answer. "Am I not good enough for you?"historical

"Jenny, you are very kind. You are really good!" Jonathan said in a soft voice.

"Then why don't you want me?" Jenny asked with bloodshot eyes.

The man couldn't answer the question.

Fortunately, Anya realized the situation between them and saved Jonathan in time.

"Brother, have you finished cooking? Aiden is calling you. He said he wanted to drink with you," Anya said with a smile.

Jenny turned around with a plate of grilled squid in her hand. As she passed the living room, Tara called out to her but the girl wouldn't answer. She went straight to the top floor.

..

The next morning, Aiden and Anya escorted Ivan, Raisa, and Jenny away.

Maria did not come because she was worried that she would not be able to stop crying when her daughter left.

Meanwhile, Nico also didn't come because he had to hurry back to the filming location last night. Tara couldn't come with them either because she was in her late pregnancy.

Apart from Aiden and Anya, only Jenny's adoptive parents accompanied them all to the airport.

Jenny then said goodbye to her parents when Aiden and Ivan were talking about work.

So far, Aiden had been in charge of all business matters at overseas branch companies. But after this, Ivan would rule over everything. Aiden decided to give up all his power to him and entrust the company to Ivan.

"Jenny seems to be feeling down. Don't forget to console her," said Anya.

Raisa laughed, "Don't worry. I also like to eat and play. I'll take her for a walk and make her forget all of her trouble."

When passing the check, Jenny hugged Nina and cried in her arms. She didn't know why her tears kept flowing. It seemed that she needed someone's support right now.

Aiden and Anya knew that the reason Jenny cried and was reluctant to leave Indonesia was Jonathan.

Tara once said that Jonathan would never leave Jenny unless the girl said that she no longer wanted him anymore.

How could Jonathan not fall in love with Jenny? She's a highly attractive person. Her cheerful self makes her look like the sun that shines brightly in the morning, even able to melt the heart of his little daughter, Alisa.

Besides loving Alisa, Jenny is also very loyal to Jonathan.

As a man, what more could he want from a woman?

Being loved by Jenny made him very, very happy. But in Jonathan's eyes, Jenny is like a child who has been pampered since childhood, surrounded by wealth and happiness. The man didn't want to make Jenny suffer with him.

Meanwhile, Rudi is the only child of his family. In the eyes of the Atmajaya Family, he is the best candidate for Jenny.

But after Jenny left Indonesia, Jenny's match with Rudi ended, just as her relationship with Jonathan ended.

..

A few days later, Raisa suddenly called Anya on New Year's Eve. "Anya, don't tell dad. Jenny ran away and I don't know where she is now."

"What?" Anya was shocked when she heard the news. "Since when?"

"This morning, she suddenly disappeared, taking all her belongings. She left us a letter so we don't look for her," Raisa had a headache when she told the story. "How should I explain it to Sis Maria? If dad finds out, he'll probably be in shock."

"Don't worry. I will try to find her too. If there's news, I'll let you know," Anya took a deep breath.

Even though Jenny complied with the Atmajaya Family's request to go abroad, no one expected that she would run away once she arrived at her new place.

"Good. Happy new year to you. I'll let you know when there's news," Raisa said.

"Happy new year."

After ending the call, Anya thought about what had happened. On New Year's Eve like this, of course the only person Jenny wanted to see the most was Jonathan.

Anya immediately called Jonathan. "Brother, did Jenny go to see you?"

"Isn't she overseas?" It's been a busy day for Jonathan. He asked his assistant to pick up Alisa and take her daughter to Diana's house.

And now he is still very busy. He hadn't had enough sleep with all the piling work he had to finish.

"Jenny's gone. Isn't today New Year's Eve? I thought she came back to meet you," said Anya.

"Meet me?" Jonathan thought for a moment. "If she really comes back and the Atmajaya Family finds out, this will be a complicated matter."

"Brother, please don't hurt her. Jenny is just a young girl blinded by love," Anya said in a sad tone.

Jonathan took a deep breath. "Anya, there's no need to worry. If Jenny really comes to see me, I'll take care of everything."

Anya could only hang up the phone and let Jonathan take care of the rest.

Around 11 pm, Jenny appeared in front of the man's house with her suitcase. Her clothes were slightly wet from the drizzle.

Last Christmas, they had a garden party because it was a very sunny day. But in just a few days, it suddenly started to rain.

"Uncle, open the door quickly." Jenny stood in the doorway, ringing the bell and banging on the door.

As soon as he heard it, Jonathan immediately opened the door. Seeing the girl standing at the door, the man had a difficult expression.

Jenny actually ran away and came back to him.

"Jenny, why did you come back to Indonesia?" Seeing her slightly wet clothes and her flushed face from the cold, Jonathan immediately asked her to come in. "Come in."

"Uncle, I really miss you. I couldn't be separated from you, so I came back quietly," Jenny wrapped her arms around Jonathan's neck and asked, "Do you miss me?"

"Jenny, let me go first. Does your uncle know you came back? Call your family and tell them you're safe and sound," Jonathan pulled Jenny's hand from his neck to release her grip.

Jenny tossed her suitcase and this time wrapped her arms around Jonathan's waist tightly. "Uncle, how about we go straight to the civil registry office? If I go abroad with our marriage certificate, I think I can rest easy."

Jonathan looked at Jenny with a helpless smile.

In the past, everyone around him hated and shunned him because of his status as an illegitimate child whose existence was not recognized by the Srijaya Family.

Due to his relationship with Anya and support from Aiden, he was finally able to get the support and help to survive the hardships.

When he returned to Indonesia for the first time, no one wanted to meet him. Everyone always avoided him, as if standing next to him would make them dirty.

But there was only one person who never hated him like that—Jenny. She doesn't care even if he is an illegitimate child. She doesn't care even though Jonathan was a widower with a kid.

Jenny just loved him.

She loved him unconditionally.

Everyone probably thought that he and Jenny didn't get along. Jonathan didn't deserve her but Jenny wanted to marry him instead.

Jenny was like a duckling that followed him wherever he went. The love that Jenny felt might be momentary, but that love alone was enough to move Jonathan's heart.

For him, Alisa's late mother was like a breeze that entered his heart slowly but surely. They started their relationship as friends then went to a serious level.

Meanwhile, Jenny seemed like a warm sun in Jonathan's world, lighting up his grayish world and giving colors to his life.

"Jenny, you are still very young. You can meet someone better in the future. Do you know that?" Jonathan said while stroking Jenny's hair beautifully. The strands felt slightly wet from the rain that soaked the city.
