Chapter 996 - A Messy Family

Rio hasn't graduated from college yet. If it is according to Maya's wishes, then he must continue his master's degree then take a doctorate degree. Still, how many years will it take him to get all that?

"If you agree to accept me, I will fulfill all your requests. Do you want to make a promise?" Rio said firmly.

Maya was really annoyed with Rio and wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.

"Alright, as long as you can get past all that, I'll think about it. But I will only open up to you, so it doesn't mean I will definitely accept you right away," said Maya.

"I need a letter of agreement. Everyone present here will be witnesses," Rio said seriously.

Bima was amused to see these young people's spirit to bet. If Rio can achieve such a high degree because of Maya, the Aditya Family will also be happy.

Jason went straight to Bima's study and took two pieces of paper for the agreement. Rio and Maya signed it in front of everyone and Aiden also signed it in the witness column.

You could say, Aiden is the most influential person in the Atmajaya Family. He signed this agreement, which means it is very valid.

Rio immediately kept his contract very carefully. In his heart, he promised himself to study hard so that Maya could look at him in awe.

A few days later, Rio and Jason finally returned to school. Maya went to the airport to drop them off.

Looking at Rio and Jason, Maya thought back to the blind date party and jewelry exhibition she held. The event was very successful and generated a lot of profit. In addition, Rio and Jason also drew the attention of many people, especially wealthy women. They hoped that Rio and Jason would soon graduate from college and grow up fast, so they could marry them off to their daughter.

"Jason! Rio!" At that moment, a woman suddenly stopped them.

"Sister Alisa! You're back!" Rio ran to Alisa and gave her a hug. Meanwhile, Jason looked at her shyly.

"Come here!" Alisa smiled and waved her hand at Jason.

Unlike Rio who ran like a child, Jason walked calmly and hugged Alisa. "Sis, I thought you couldn't come back today."

"There's no way I won't see you guys," said Alisa with a smile.

Alisa's assistant was beside her and waited patiently for her. Seeing that the conversation would not end in a short time, Maya finally said, "Sis, just tell your assistant to go home. I'll take you later."

Alisa whispered a few things to her assistant and then invited Maya, Rio and Jason to chat at the café. Incidentally, there was still quite some time before their flight.

"So what's your next plan? I heard you two are graduating this year?" Alisa asked.

Maya looked at the two of them in confusion. "Have you graduated?"

Rio just smiled without saying anything. Meanwhile, Jason didn't want to interfere and pretended to look elsewhere.

But since no one wanted to answer, Jason finally tried to explain. "Sis, the undergraduate program we're currently enrolled in is only three years and we will graduate this year. But I'm still very young and I want to continue my studies," he replied.

"I was still confused about what I should do after graduation so I returned to Indonesia with Jason. We were both interns at the Mawardi Group and now I've found a new destination. I'll take a master's degree and then a doctorate!" Rio said excitedly.

Maya could only cover her face in annoyance. Why does she feel like she is being fooled?

"How long does it take to get a master's degree?" Maya asked weakly.

"There is a master's program that only takes one year, starting in September this year. If I join the program, I will graduate in September next year. After that, I will take my doctorate. Looks like it won't take me too long to come back and see you again. Aren't you happy?" Rio looked at Maya happily.

"What?" Maya really felt cheated by these two brats.

Why did she have to sign this fraudulent contract? According to Rio's explanation, doesn't that mean he can return in no time?!

"But I heard college over there is very difficult. It is easy for you to apply, but to pass is very difficult and the assessment is very strict. Are you up to it?" Alisa smiled.

Maya's heart was at least a little comforted when she heard Alisa's words. Looking at Rio's mediocre grades, perhaps he wouldn't even be accepted when he applied.

Maya can only hope that Rio won't be accepted!

After sending the two brats away, Maya felt that all her energy had been exhausted. But she didn't expect that she would get good news from Rio and Jason in such a short time.

They have been successfully accepted and are about to start their master programme.

Maya was annoyed. Why does it seem so easy for them?

It turned out that after checking it once more, the university that Rio was aiming for turned out to be easier for someone who has a university background in the same country. It doesn't matter if their grades are mediocre and not that good, as long as they come from the same country, they can enter easily.

What's more, Rio's family lives there!

Maya held her head and grabbed her hair. "Ahhhh!"

"Maya, what are you doing?" Sabrina looked at Maya who went batshit crazy while stroking her stomach. "Don't be afraid, girl!"

Maya raised her head and looked at her. "Sabrina, I really want to kill Jason!"

"What is going on? Wasn't his performance at the company and in the shop really good?" Sabrina asked in confusion.

"He worked with Rio to lie and trick me into signing that damn contract. If Rio manages to get his doctorate, I agree to rethink about him, although I won't accept him right away. I think he hasn't even graduated college yet. He must continue his master's degree first, then take his doctorate. I thought it would take him several years, but now, who knows…"

"Who knows if they both graduate this year? They can take a master's degree in one year and maybe, Rio will come back to see you again next year," after Sabrina said that, she burst out laughing.

"YES! I didn't think it would be that fast!" Maya leaned her head on the table, feeling very annoyed. "Those naughty brats…. They passed the registration stage very easily and now they are starting school."

"Don't worry. Even though it's easy to register, it's not that easy to graduate from college, let alone complete a master degree. Don't look at the time. It doesn't necessarily mean that he will survive college," Sabrina tried to comfort her.

"I wish he would never graduate," Maya said angrily.

"I heard Jason's older sister just returned to Indonesia. She's still single right? How old is she?" Sabrina asked curiously.

"About five or six years older than Brother Arka. Sis Alisa is busy working and making perfume. She never dated. But her face looks very young. If I said she was only 25 years old, everyone would believe it," said Maya.

Sabrina scratched her head.

"Maya, don't you think our family is so messy? We've got so many members and mixed up at the same time!"

"Do you still want to be called cousin? Or should I call you aunty now?" Maya looked at Sabrina with a smile.

Maya and Sabrina's status before Sabrina married were cousins. But now Sabrina is married to Arka, who is none other than Maya's uncle. So, what should she call Sabrina?

Sabrina laughed at the question. "You are a sister from my mother's family. My mother and your father are siblings. It's better if we just stay as cousins. If you call me aunty, I'll feel very old."

"Okay. Our family is really messy. Sometimes, I also feel confused about what to call Sis Alisa," Maya said in annoyance. "Ugh... Why should I be born as the younger generation…"
