"Jenny, wake up!" Aiden said as he knocked on Jenny's door.
"It's still early. I'm still sleepy!" Still half asleep, Jenny took a pillow to cover her head and closed her eyes again.
"It's already 10 o'clock. How would you like Brother Jonathan to have a lazy wife like you? You will definitely be rejected!" Anya said patiently.
Jenny was silent for a moment and immediately opened her eyes. She jolted from his bed and threw off the blanket. Before she could put on her sandals, she immediately ran towards the door with her bare feet and opened it. Her face was full of excitement and anticipation. "Auntie, have you agreed to my relationship with Jonathan?"
Aiden looked at Jenny's messy bird-nest hair and said, "Are you that impatient to marry Jonathan? He's not that good."
"Yeah, I can't wait for it. Jonathan is the best man in the world," Jenny was so in love. "So, has grandfather changed his mind and agreed to my marriage?"
"No," Aiden replied curtly, concisely and clearly.
"Then what are you guys doing here?" The smile on Jenny's face disappeared instantly and she returned to her lazy look.
Aiden wanted to reprimand his niece. But upon seeing the tense atmosphere, Anya immediately stepped forward and smiled, preventing her husband from speaking. "Jenny, two days ago, you said you wanted to eat a strawberry stuffed croissant, right? I asked your uncle to buy it. Let's get up and have breakfast together. You'll get sick if you don't eat breakfast."
Jenny groaned and hugged Anya's arm. "Auntie is so good to me! Aunt, I'm so bored at home. What else can I do but sleep? I wanted to go shopping with Tiara, but Grandpa wouldn't let me out. I don't want to stay at home anymore. Living in this house is suffocating me."
Jenny complained to Anya, but actually she was secretly glancing at Aiden and asking him for help.
"Aiden, let her out of the house once in a while. Do you want to lock her in this house forever?" Anya couldn't stand all this either. She felt sorry for Jenny.
Hearing this, Jenny immediately nodded her head repeatedly and looked at Aiden with pitiful eyes.
Finally, Aiden agreed to help Jenny ask Bima's permission.
Downstairs, Bima had heard that Aiden wanted to give Jenny permission to come out.
"I only let her out to work for the company, but I don't want her to go anywhere. She has been away from Indonesia for a long time. Shouldn't she have stayed home and accompanied her grandfather on the weekends? Her mother also needs someone to accompany her," said Bima.
"Dad, you just said that she couldn't meet Jonathan and you didn't say that Jenny wasn't allowed to meet her friends either. And, with your bodyguards around, you know who Jenny is going with." In the end, Maria also helped to persuade Bima so that the old man agreed.
Jenny immediately got up and took a shower. After that, she dried her hair, opened her wardrobe while humming.
She wore light blue jeans and a white baseball top. Then she applied a simple makeup and put on white shoes before leaving the room.
Once she knew she could get out of the house, Jenny looked like a bird freed from its cage. She was really happy.
Before leaving the house, Bima repeatedly told his guards that Jenny was not allowed to meet Jonathan. Jenny and Tiara can only go out to eat, shop and relax.
Even though Jenny was upset inside, she still spoke sweetly in front of her grandfather. "Grandfather, thank you for giving me permission. When I get home, I'll bring some good food for you."
Bima replied with a cold snort. "Don't make me angry. Otherwise, I will make the Srijaya Group disappear so Jonathan and his daughter will never appear in front of me again."
Anya's face immediately paled after hearing that. Bima's threat had gone too far, but the effect on Jenny was immediate.
"I won't do anything until grandpa agrees. I'm an obedient child, you know," Jenny showed her innocent face to Bima before leaving.
When she thought that she could get out of the house and meet her friends, Jenny was overjoyed.
She immediately called Tiara as soon as she got into the car. "Tiara, my grandfather forbade me to meet Jonathan. I can only meet you. Let's meet at the cafe."
"Jenny, I just finished work at 3 am. Can we just go in the afternoon?" Even so, Tiara still woke up from her sleep and went to meet Jenny.
When Jenny arrived at the cafe, Tiara was already waiting for her there because she lived closer.
Jenny asked Bima's bodyguard to wait outside. She did not want to eat while being watched and watched by two large bodyguards. That would feel really weird.
She walked towards Tiara, patted her left shoulder mischievously, but then moved to the right.
They used to do this when they were still in school and they already understood each other. Tiara didn't even think twice about turning her head to the right and looking at Jenny with a smile on her face.
Tiara immediately took Jenny's hand naturally and pretended to complain. "You suddenly asked me out today. I had to crawl out of my bed because I was so sleepy. But when I arrived, you weren't there yet. I even had to wait for you for half an hour!"
Jenny pretended to be touched. "Oh, what makes a young girl like you wait in a cafe for half an hour? Is it love? Or responsibility?"
Tiara tried to hold back her smile, but it still peeked out from the corner of her lips. So she pretended to be annoyed. "Why do I have a friend like you?" She grumbled.
Jenny laughed seeing her and immediately brought Tiara's hand to her chest. She pretended to be hurt. "Tiara, why are you being so nice to me? Maybe we were meant to be together. Come on, I'll treat you to whatever you want today! I'm really starving to death. I haven't even had breakfast yet."
"Jenny, what have you done? Did your family forbid you to eat?" Tiara's eyes widened as she looked at her friend with pity.
"How could I not be allowed to eat? I just woke up late. I was so excited to meet you that I didn't have time for breakfast. I've only been at home the last few days so it's really tight," Jenny drank the iced lemon tea served on the table. "Let's order first. We'll chat while we eat. I think I can finish all the food in this cafe."
Tiara flicked her best friend's forehead and said, "I know. You're greedy."
After that, she raised her hand to call the waiter. A waiter immediately recommended a set meal for two. After the maid left, Tiara moved to sit next to Jenny and held her hand as she asked excitedly, "Quickly tell me what happened. I heard your uncle hit Uncle Jonathan. Did Uncle Jonathan do something to you?"
"How could Uncle Jonathan do anything bad to me?" Jenny couldn't stand it when she heard that someone else was badmouthing Jonathan. Without a second thought, she immediately defended him.
She said it so loudly that it caught the attention of everyone around her.
