Chapter 796 - I Like Others

"Hello nephew. I will be your aunt." Anya sat down with a big smile on her face.

"I thought you guys pitied me for spending the new year alone and invited me to have a meal together. Is it better for me to go home now? I can eat outside," Rudi pretended to be scared.

"Even if you left, you would still be engaged to Jenny. You'd better eat while we find a way out of this problem."

Rudi was confused. Today is the first day of the new year, but why should these people make him suddenly confused like this?

Rudi called his father who was not in Indonesia in the meantime. But it was busy, showing that he was on a call with someone else.

Suddenly, he had a bad feeling. Looks like Aiden and Anya are not teasing him.

After failing to call his father, he called Jenny. If Jenny disagrees, this engagement can be called off.

After ringing three times, Jenny finally picked it up, "What's wrong? I'm so mad right now. Just say what you want," she said angrily.

Rudi pretended to be calm and said, "Jenny, we are eating at Anya's mother's house. Are you busy?"

"Who cares? I'm in a bad mood," Jenny replied.

"Jonathan will also come here. That's why I called you!" said Rudi.

Jenny was silent for a moment and then said, "I'm heartbroken. Jonathan doesn't want me."

"Jenny, everyone can see how Jonathan treats you. Maybe he doesn't realize it, but actually he loves you," said Rudi. He was trying to save himself this way. If Jonathan and Jenny ended up together, he didn't need to be engaged to Jenny.

Jenny was lying in bed, staring silently at the crystal chandelier hanging above her.

"Jenny, do you hear me? I am a man. Canceling the engagement means nothing to me. But you are different. I did all this for you. I advise you not to act rashly," said Rudi over the phone.

Jenny rolled over on her bed. "Who told you that?"

"Your uncle. Your father and grandfather are on the phone right now, planning how to set us up. I'm afraid this won't be good for you later. I always think of you as my sister and I hope you can be happy," Rudi continued to persuade Jenny to cancel their engagement.

Jenny laughed and said, "Rudi, did you ever think that I hated him just because he had a kid?"

"Not."

"I tried to protect him. I know my family won't agree with my relationship with him. I'm willing to go abroad for him. I don't care about my pride because I can't live without Jonathan. With my intelligence, I could have graduated earlier. Can't he wait for me? Did he not know that I went abroad for him?"

As she said that, tears streamed down her face. She felt very sad. Was she really that insignificant in Jonathan's eyes?

Rudi felt so dizzy that he almost went crazy. Why does everything have to be like this?

But he had to stay calm and persuade Jenny. Once this engagement actually happened, it would be very difficult to end it.

The only thing that awaits them if that were to happen is marriage. What if Jonathan doesn't do anything? What if the engagement did come true?

Rudi wasn't sure how Jonathan would treat Jenny. Sometimes, the man seems to really love Jenny, but he's also very good at hiding his feelings.

"Jenny, Jonathan is coming here tonight. How about you guys meet up and make things clear?" said Rudi.

"I've met him earlier and he expects me to bless his relationship with his girlfriend. What can I do? Praying for them to break up tomorrow? Or that he won't have any peace in his life? Or do you want me to pray that the woman is barren, can't give him another child?" Jenny shouted angrily.

Rudi suddenly laughed at her anger. As time went on, his laughter grew louder. He didn't expect that the girl would suddenly be angry like this.

"Laugh as you want. Just wait, can you still laugh like this after marrying me? I will be the only woman in the Aditya Family!" Jenny said coldly.

When he heard Jenny's words, the smile on Rudi's face instantly froze. It felt like he really wanted to cry. "Listen to me. I didn't mean to laugh. Jenny…"

Looking that the call was no longer connected, Rudi felt like his world was really going to fall apart.

"The food is ready!" At that moment, Diana came out with some plates.

"Eat," said Anya as the table was filled with Rudi's favorite food.

"You guys really made me suffer!" Rudi wanted to cry. While eating, he kept trying to call his father abroad.

When the phone was successfully connected, his father had made an agreement with Bima regarding his marriage to Jenny.

"Rudi, it's a coincidence that you called. I wanted to tell you about Jenny…"

"Dad, I know you like Jenny and want her to be your daughter-in-law. But love can't be forced," Rudi interrupted before his father could speak.

His father smiled hearing that. "That feeling can grow over time. When I married your mother, I didn't love her either. But now we love each other and have you. I'm sure you can also experience the same thing."

"Father, I am your son! I will do whatever it takes to expand your business and comply with all your requests. But you can't force me to get engaged!" said Rudi.

"Don't you like Jenny? There's no problem if you marry her, right?" Rudi's father asked.

"That's because I didn't know before. Now I know and I can't marry her!" Rudi said. Previously, he only teased Jenny because it was fun to do it. But who would have thought that he would fall into a trap like this.

Now, he wants to change his mind!

"Jenny is the best choice. You should marry a woman with the right family background. Just look at this town, is there any woman better than her?" said Rudi's father.

"Dad, Jenny is angry right now. What if she broke off the engagement? Aren't you afraid your son's name will be tarnished? Besides, I feel sorry for her if the engagement were to be called off," Rudi said, expressing his opinion.

"In terms of intelligence and maturity, Jenny is the best candidate for you. It's okay even if she's a little spoiled and naughty," Rudi's father really likes Jenny. It doesn't matter if a woman is a little spoiled. It is a man's duty to pamper and love his wife.

But Rudi felt almost crazy. "Father, do you really want to corner me like this?"

"Jenny has agreed to be engaged to you. What are you afraid of?" His father said with a laugh.

"Father, I want to find a gentle and obedient wife. And Jenny is nothing like that," said Rudi.

"A wife does not need to be gentle. After all, there's no better woman than Jenny."

Rudi is at his wits end to argue with his father. "Actually, I like someone else!" He said.

"Sometimes, a person should not be selfish and think for himself. Let's just say you make a little sacrifice for our family." After saying this, Rudi's father immediately ended the call.

"Father, you can't do this to me! I'm your son. Dad, Dad!" Rudi held his phone angrily. He felt his heart crumble to dust.

Aiden watched all this in silence. He didn't react at all.

"What would you do?" He asked at last.
