Jonathan holds a microphone and sings a song in his sweet voice.
…
"Maybe you don't know, but after you confessed your love to me, all the stars in the sky looked brighter. I wanted to be a prince in your fairy tale life, and you an angel in my dark life. Open your heart, let me protect you. Trust me, our ending will be a happy one…"
…
Jenny turned and looked in the direction the voice came from in surprise. Jonathan is coming!
The man came with a large bouquet of red roses and walked towards her.
"You... You can sing?" Jenny said wide-eyed.
"If you want to listen to it, I can sing for you. Happy birthday," Jonathan stepped forward and handed the flowers he brought to Jenny.
At that time, the light in the room was still off. Jenny hadn't blown out the candles on her cake so the crew hadn't turned the lights back on.
"Jonathan, I never heard you sing. I thought you couldn't. I see that you have a great voice." Jenny couldn't hide her excitement and immediately hugged him.
Jonathan looked back and saw Rudi was supporting him.
"If you like it, I will sing for you every day," Jonathan took Jenny's hand and lowered his head to kiss the back of her hand.
"Gosh, how romantic!" Someone shouted from the crowd.
"I've put on a beautiful make up today and you'll ruin them if you make me cry! So don't you dare," Jenny lifted her head and took a deep breath.
Suddenly, Jonathan knelt on the floor and took out the ring box he had prepared. "Jenny, marry me."
Aiden didn't expect the man to suddenly propose to Jenny. He looked at his father and found that the situation was not good.
"Turn on the light. Quickly turn on the light!" Bima shouted loudly.
Upon hearing the order, the crew immediately turned on the lights. They didn't know what was going on so they could only do what Bima told them.
When the lights were turned on, Bima saw Jonathan kneeling and proposing to Jenny. He looked at him with a grim look.
Every day, Jonathan came to his house. But Bima never met him once.
He has not yet received the blessing of the Atmajaya Family, but he suddenly proposes to Jenny at her birthday party.
Bima was furious when he saw this.
But Aiden could understand that this was a surprise. And a surprise is something that happens suddenly without anyone knowing.
That's why it's called a surprise.
If anyone already knew, would that not be a surprise anymore?
"Jonathan, what are you doing? Today is Jenny's birthday. Why are you even messing with her like this?" Bima stepped forward and pushed Jonathan.
"Grandpa, what are you doing?" Jenny immediately stood up, protecting Jonathan.
"Sorry, I proposed to Jenny without telling you first. I wanted to surprise her but I knew I was in too much of a hurry. If I displeased you, I'm sorry," Jonathan is a very humble person. He was not angry even though Bima treated him this way.
"Jonathan, you must understand what I told you earlier. I will not approve of your relationship with Jenny. You are no match for her!" Bima humiliated Jonathan in public.
Jonathan didn't have a family to defend him at a time like this. But his act moved some of the guests' hearts, so they stepped forward to defend him.
"Bima, there is nothing wrong with young people falling in love. We all saw what Jonathan was capable of."
"That's right, Bima. Calm down. Today is your granddaughter's birthday. Don't make her sad."
In fact, many people there already knew why Bima did not accept Jonathan. Most of them think that the reason is because Jonathan is the illegitimate child of his family and that he has a child.
Jonathan walked to Bima and said softly, "Nonetheless, my feelings for Jenny will remain the same. I will try my best to get your approval. I don't know what I have to do to make you believe that my feelings for Jenny are genuine,"
Bima was very angry. He raised his hand, about to hit Jonathan.
Aiden moved just in time and caught his father's hand. "Dad, today is Jenny's birthday. Should we embarrass her in front of the guests?"
"Let me go. Did you not hear what he said earlier? He said he would keep in touch with Jenny nonetheless. Why is he still insisting if he already knew that I wouldn't agree!" Bima shouted angrily.
"Jonathan, listen to me carefully. Even if you are the last man in this world, I will not let my granddaughter marry you. You are not welcome here. Get out! Guards!" Bima immediately called his bodyguards to chase Jonathan away.
The man placed the ring he bought in Jenny's palm and turned around.
Jenny immediately burst into tears and said frantically, "Jonathan, don't go."
"Jenny, I will always love you. Today is your birthday so you have to be happy! You look so beautiful so please don't shed your tears. I'll come home first." Jonathan reached out, wiped the tears from Jenny's cheeks and stroked her face.
"Don't go!" Jenny gripped her hand tightly.
"Sir, I am sorry. But you must leave now," said the guard.
Jonathan smiled faintly and left the venue with Rudi.
Jenny was about to chase after him, but Bima's bodyguard stopped her immediately. She cried loudly. Bima then ordered someone to take her away so she could fix her makeup.
The birthday party turned into chaos, but Bima didn't care at all. He ordered the servants to serve the food and opened a bottle of champagne.
Although Aiden can't accept his father's treatment, he can also understand it because he is also a father.
Anya knew that Jenny must be sad because of this incident so she immediately went to see her.
Jonathan didn't tell anyone that he was going to propose to Jenny today because he wanted to surprise her. But who would have thought this surprise would turn out to be such a mess.
Because of Galih's problem, Indah prefers to stay at Diana's house and doesn't want to attend big events like this.
So Bima takes this opportunity to show Jonathan that no one can support him.
If Indah had been there, things wouldn't have turned out like this.
Anya was very worried. She was Jonathan's only family there, but she couldn't do anything against her father-in-law.
She had to restrain herself every time Bima humiliated Jonathan in public.
After Jonathan left, Jenny kept crying in the dressing room. The guests who arrived late didn't even have time to see her.
Bima then asked someone to call Jenny. No matter what happened, he would not allow Jenny to be rude.
Today, everyone came to celebrate her birthday. How could they all go home without seeing the person of the day?
Jenny tried to calm her feelings. She is an educated and well-mannered woman. She wouldn't let a problem like this mess things up.
She can pretend nothing happened and discuss the matter at home after the event is over.
Finally, she decided to get out of the dressing room and descend from the second floor.
On the other side of the corridor, Rudi led Jonathan down the stairs while trying to cheer Jenny up.
Jonathan knew Jenny must be very sad and he heard that she kept crying in her dressing room. The man had left before, but he decided to come back.
Jenny stood at the end of the stairs on the second floor, watching the guests dancing on the dance floor. She took a deep breath and tried to smile widely. After that, she walked down the stairs slowly.
"Sherry? What do you want to do?" Jonathan finds Sherry suddenly appearing behind Jenny, just as Jenny is about to get off.
