"Jenny, how about I take Rudi first and then drop you off?" said Jonathan.

"He's a grown man. Why doesn't he just take a taxi?" Jenny said irritably. "Don't you have a lot of money? Why don't you bring your own car!"

​​

"If it weren't for your uncle getting my car towed, I wouldn't have asked him. Maybe I would've gone home and relaxed in my bathtub now! Taxis are dirty, I've never used their service," Rudi said disdainfully.

"You spoiled man! If I were the driver, I wouldn't take you either," Jenny snorted. "Uncle, take me home first!" She continued while looking spoiled.

Hearing Jenny's sweet voice, Jonathan couldn't resist. "Rudi, let me take her first," Jonathan finally said.

"Your voice is so sweet. I like it so much. How about you call my name with that voice?" Rudi said on purpose.

"Uncle, he's bothering me again!" Jenny said angrily.

Jonathan laughed. "Your uncle warned him to stay away from you and your aunt."

Hearing this, Jenny immediately threatened Rudi, "Get out of this car quickly! Otherwise, I'll call my uncle and tell him that you purposely want to take me home with you!"

"You think I'm scared? Go on, I'll see him and my mom too!" Rudi said, casually calling Diana his mother.

Jenny looked at Jonathan disdainfully. "Uncle, don't you know how embarrassing he is? When I came to see Granny Diana, I called her very politely to show my respect. But this man... Just because he was fed, he immediately considered Grandma Diana as his mother."

"He… He's been that way," Jonathan just smiled understandingly. He remembered that Rudi had always been like that.

It was the first time Jonathan met Rudi because the latter said that he had no money to eat and no place to live.

Finally, Rudi stayed with him and had a meal. In return, Rudi would help him do the chores and take care of Alisa.

When he is free, Rudi will go out to find a job that can make him some money.

"Of course, I do get close to people easily. The more I see you, the more I want to make you my wife. Alright then, I will meet the Atmajaya Family tomorrow!" Rudi said deliberately.

Jenny was furious when she heard that. "I'd rather marry Uncle Jonathan. I hate you!"

"Oh, so you want to marry Jonathan?" Rudi looked at the two of them seductively.

Jonathan looks a little embarrassed. "Jenny was just talking carelessly because you kept teasing her. Don't make her angry all the time!"

"It's true, Uncle Jonathan is a thousand times better than you. I won't let you go to my family's house to propose. Do you hear me? Even if my grandfather and mother agreed, my adoptive parents would never!" Jenny said.

Rudi leaned back in his chair lazily. Jonathan continued to drive his car and listened to their bickering.

"Rudi, Jenny doesn't like you. Don't bother her any more," Jonathan helped Jenny to speak.

Seeing Jonathan defend the girl, Rudi immediately became interested. "Little girl, you will be happy if you marry me. My parents are abroad. No evil in-laws will bully you. If you marry Jonathan, you must be the stepmother of his child. In two years, his evil father will be out of prison and you must meet him!"

"Alisa likes me! I won't be a bad stepmother!" Jenny said.

"Eh? Jenny, you seem to have misunderstood," Jonathan said.

Jenny turned and saw Rudi in the back seat coldly. "No matter how good or great your family is, I don't like you and I will never marry you. If you dare marry me, I will go out every day and look for as many side guys as possible."

"Are you threatening me? I'm not afraid," Rudi laughed then said to Jonathan "See, this girl keeps defending you. She even wants to be Alisa's stepmother."

"Don't be like that. Jenny is Anya's niece. That means she is my niece too," Jonathan's eyes were clear and calm, not showing his feelings at all.

Jenny fell silent. Jonathan wasn't wrong for calling her his niece. After all, the man was a cousin to Anya, her uncle's wife.

But why did she feel uncomfortable when Jonathan referred to her as a niece?"

"Nieces are still women. She is also single and waiting for her partner, like a flower waiting to be picked," Rudi said casually while looking at Jenny.

Hearing the man's words, Jenny looked at Jonathan. She could see him looking tense and his lips parted to say something, but in the end, Jonathan didn't say anything.

"I am still young. I don't want to get married yet," Jenny said in a low voice.

Rudi laughed as if he heard the most ridiculous joke.

"Jenny, you and Anya are almost the same age. Anya already has two children while you don't even have a boyfriend. Have you never fallen in love?"

Jenny lowered her head and whispered softly, "I've been in love once."

"To whom? Jonathan?" Rudi held Jonathan's seat excitedly.

"I'm driving! Don't shake my seat!" Jonathan said coldly.

Jenny looked at Rudi angrily, realizing she had said the wrong thing. "Why should I tell you? You are nobody."

Rudi laughed again. "I find you very attractive. After we get married, I will never be lonely!"

"Uncle, can I hit him?" Jenny said with a face full of rage.

"There's a baseball bat under your seat," Jonathan said calmly.

Jenny's eyes immediately lit up hearing that. She reached under her seat quickly and found a baseball bat. Jonathan was not lying!

"Ah? Can we have a good talk about it?" Rudi immediately backed off, not expecting Jenny to resort to violence!

The girl looked back and placed the baseball bat on his shoulder. "Do you still dare to marry me? If you do, I won't hesitate to beat you to a pulp!"

"Jenny, sit down!" Jonathan saw a cop in front of him who stopped their car. The cop saw Jenny unbuckling her seatbelt and standing facing her back, looking very dangerous.

Rudi sat on his seat watching Jonathan accompany Jenny to face the traffic police.

Jenny bowed politely and sweetly in front of the officer. "Sir, I'm sorry. Please don't punish my uncle! I won't dare to be naughty anymore. I promise I won't do it again!"

"Take good care of your niece. That was really dangerous!" The policeman saw Jenny being very polite and sweet and finally decided to let them go.

"Thank you, Mr. Police! Good luck with your work!" Jenny felt very relieved when she returned to the car.

Rudi tried to hold back his smile. As soon as they left, he immediately laughed loudly.

"Laugh and I will hit you!" Jenny said angrily.

"Did you hear what you said earlier? 'Sir, I'm sorry…'" Rudi imitated her way of talking to the police earlier.

Jenny then hit him angrily. "Uncle, look at him! He's bothering me!"

"If you know he did it on purpose, don't pay attention to him. If you're angry, you'll only make him happier. Better ignore him," Jonathan said, comforting Jenny.

Jenny looked at Rudi in annoyance and then turned her attention to Jonathan. "Okay, I will listen to you!" She said, looking at him with admiration.
