Jenny's face immediately turned red, she lowered her head in shame as everyone watched her. After that, she muttered in a low voice, "Even if he does 'bad things' to me, I don't mind."
Seeing the embarrassed expression on her face, Tiara immediately guessed that Jenny and Jonathan were already in a more serious relationship. She couldn't believe it and asked, "You… Have you slept with Jonathan before? Jenny… Wow…"
Jenny was shocked to hear that. She immediately covered Tiara's mouth and looked around quickly. Her heart felt like it was going to burst.
Luckily, no one around them noticed their conversation. "Lower your voice! Don't let anyone find out!"
Tiara didn't dare to move in the slightest. She blinked repeatedly and nodded for Jenny to let go. Finally, Jenny removed her hand from Tiara's mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Jenny! Your two years of schooling were not in vain. You could get Jonathan right away after you came back home. It seems like studying abroad really did add experience and knowledge!" Tiara was very happy for her best friend.
Jenny has liked Jonathan since two years ago and has been waiting for him for a long time. Everyone knows about this.
Jenny rolled her eyes and muttered. "Don't tease me! I'm really bored now! Jonathan finally accepted me, but my grandfather and uncle were vehemently against us. I just want to be with him. Is it really that difficult to let me marry the man I love? Had I known that returning to the Atmajaya Family made it difficult for me to marry a man of my own choice, I wouldn't have returned!"
Jenny felt more and more sad as she said that. Her eyes were red from trying to hold back the tears. She had been locked up at home long enough, struggling to hold back her feelings. Seeing her best friend, she felt like she wanted to pour out all her complaints and sufferings.
"Jenny, you can actually get a better man than Jonathan. But you are so stubborn and you live and die only for him. Do you know that being a stepmother isn't as easy as you think?" Tiara is also an honest person, saying everything she thinks matter-of-factly.
"I don't care. I want to marry Jonathan and I just love him!" Jenny replied stubbornly.
Tiara wanted to answer, but she immediately swallowed her words when a waitress came to deliver their food. After placing the food on the table, the waiter said, "Ladies, be careful the coffee is still hot. Enjoy your meals!"
Two cups of steaming hot coffee sat in front of them, right next to the steak they ordered. The atmosphere was a little gloomy because their discussion was halted because their food had arrived.
"Let's eat first. I am hungry!" Tears flowed from Jenny's eyes, but when she saw the food on the table, she stared at it greedily and swallowed her saliva. Tiara didn't know whether to laugh or feel sorry for her friend. Jenny is indeed very unique.
As they were almost finished eating, Jenny saw a man walking towards the table beside her. Unknowingly, she turned and looked at the figure.
"Uncle Harris?" Jenny said doubtfully.
Harris heard Jenny's voice not far from him. He immediately turned his head, not expecting to meet her here. "Jenny, why are you here?"
"Why are you here? I'm eating with my friend. Have you eaten? Wanna dine with us? Where's Sis Nadine?" Jenny asked a waitress to clear her table of some of the empty plates so Harris could join in.
"I've eaten, you just eat. I'm on a day off today, so I went shopping with Nadine. She's stopping by Iris and arranging staff training for next week. I'm waiting for her," Harris said with a smile.
"Brother, come sit with us. Waiting alone must be boring!" Jenny said. "After eating, you can pay for us."
Harry laughed. He didn't refuse and walked over to Jenny. "You're as naughty as always. Alright, just order what you like. I'll pay for it later."
"Thank you, sis. Tiara, what else would you like to eat? Order quickly, let my brother-in-law treat us!" Jenny said proudly.
When Harris and Jenny were talking, they didn't notice that Tiara was frozen, looking at Harris' face.
Jenny realized that her chatty friend had suddenly shut up and said nothing. Not only silent, Tiara continued to look at Harris with a dreamy gaze.
Seeing this, Jenny immediately nudged Tiara with her arm and introduced her to Harris. "Brother, she is my close friend from high school, Tiara."
After that, Jenny drew closer to Tiara and whispered in her ear, "Tiara, have you never seen a man this handsome? This is my brother-in-law, my sister's husband. So you can't… You know what I mean, right!"
Tiara woke up from her reverie after hearing Jenny's whisper. This time, her gaze looked clearer and she became more convinced.
She had met Harris before.
Harris was her neighbour. At that time, Tiara knew that he was alone with his mother, Hana. Although still a child, Tiara also knew that Harris and his mother were being chased by someone at that time.
Her mother and several other villagers were helping them at that time.
But because their hiding place was found, Hana and Harris finally left from there.
Not long after, Tiara's mother died and she was raised by her aunt who lived in Hong Kong. So she never saw Harris again.
Unexpectedly, he was able to meet Harris again after so many years.
Tiara didn't think that her sacrifice to accompany Jenny and lost sleep would allow her to meet a friend she hadn't seen in a long time.
She was so happy to meet Harris here!
Tiara was very relieved to see Harris was fine. She was relieved that Harris wasn't caught by the bad guys and grew up to be a fine gentleman.
"Hello, Tiara. How are you?" Harris nodded and smiled politely.
From the expression on his face, Tiara knew that Harris didn't recognize her. Suddenly, Tiara felt a sense of loss in her heart that she couldn't say.
"Brother Harris, did you forget me? I can recognize you right away. Why can't you recognize me?" Tiara said deliberately.
Harris was stunned, as was Jenny. "What is this? Are you two related?"
"Jenny, don't think like that. I don't know her. Maybe Tiara was just joking. My wife will be here soon," Harris did not remember this woman in front of him.
"Brother Harris, you used to say you were going to marry me. I'm single now, but you already have a wife. Looks like we have a problem we need to solve now!" Tiara leaned back in her chair lazily and looked at Harris with a smile.
Harris frowned as he looked at the woman. "Please don't like jokes like this, especially in front of Jenny. She's still a kid. She could have misunderstood."
"I'm not small kid and I'm not stupid. There must be something between you two. If you don't tell me clearly, I'll report it to my sister!" Jenny said irritably.
