Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 852
Advertisement
"I didn't buy this gift. All of this is from Jonathan. Bima, you and I are both against their relationship. But you also know that Jenny and Jonathan love each other. Jonathan's mother died when he was little and my brother is still in prison. Only I can come to accompany him today," Indah said openly that she had come to accompany her nephew to propose to Jenny.
Bima was not happy to see all this. If Jonathan had come alone with gifts to their family, he could have immediately ordered someone to kick him out.
But today, Indah also came along. No matter what happens, she is still Anya's mother. And Bima can't just throw her out.
"I think I've made it clear before. But why are you…Why do this?" Bima said.
"Jonathan was really reckless at that time. Without telling Jenny's parents, he suddenly proposed to her on the spot. I brought him here today to make amends. Can we chat while sitting down?" After saying that, Indah opened a jewelry box with diamonds inside.
Bima looked at the diamond. He had heard that this diamond, a fairly ancient diamond, belonged to the British Empire. This is the first time he has seen it with his own eyes. "I can't accept something as valuable as this."
Jonathan fell silent. He rose to his feet using his crutches and said very politely, "My feelings for Jenny are really sincere. Before, I knew you wanted Jenny to grow up by sending her to study abroad. I wanted her to pursue her dream and also support your decision. In the end, I always refused and avoided her. But now, I didn't want to lose Jenny again. No matter how many times you refuse me, I will keep coming back. I want to be with her."
"There's only family here, so I'll tell you the truth. I never hated your family background. I can see your ability after working hard for so many years. But I can't accept you because you already have a kid. That's the real thing. I don't want Jenny to be a stepmother. Your aunt raised Keara for years, but what did she get? Even before Keara died, she was still trying to destroy your aunt's reputation. I don't want Jenny to experience something like that," Bima said what was in his heart.

"Bima, if you think that Alisa will be a problem between Jenny and Jonathan's relationship, I can raise her. After my divorce, I intend to live with Diana in the park. Alisa also likes us and she has a talent in perfumery. She showed interest in being a parfumeur so Anya will train her to be her successor in the future. Alisa doesn't need Jenny to raise her because there will be all of us."
Seeing Bima silent, Indah continued, "Alisa is an understanding child. She was born and has been living abroad so she is more independent than other children her age. She is in elementary school now. She usually stayed in her school dormitory or at Diana's house during the holidays. Even though Jenny and Jonathan get married later, Alisa will be happy with their relationship. She won't be jealous, and she will be very happy if Jenny gives her a sibling instead."
"That..."
It was true that what Bima was worried about was Alisa. But if Indah said that, what could he do? Bima didn't know what to answer so he turned his head to look at Maria, Jenny's mother.
"Father, I will always support Jenny in this matter," said Maria.
"You've seen how hard Jonathan works. It is not easy for him to find a woman who truly loves him. He didn't want to lose Jenny and he would never let her down. He wanted to give Jenny happiness so he dared to do all this. He proposed to her in front of many people without telling her parents first. It was Jonathan's fault. But he did it out of love."
Today, Indah did not come as Anya's mother. She represents her nephew to ask permission from the Atmajaya Family to marry Jenny.
"Father, I also beg you to agree to Jenny and Jonathan's relationship," Maria asked, helping Indah to plead to Bima.
"Grandpa, I will make Jenny happy for the rest of my life. Alisa is my daughter and that's the truth. I can't pretend Alisa doesn't exist and I can't kick her out of my life. All I can promise you is that I will never make Jenny or Alisa sad. I will take care of them and make them happy," Jonathan said sincerely.

Jenny, who had been hiding outside the door and could only peek, suddenly ran inside and knelt before Bima. "Grandpa, I beg you to bless our relationship! Jonathan has proposed to me in front of everyone and I have accepted him. I really love him and I will never forget him. Two years abroad, I still love Jonathan. If it's not him, I would never want to marry in my entire life!"
"Jenny, stand up!" Seeing Jenny force Bima in this way, Jonathan immediately pulled her off the floor.
But Jenny wouldn't get up. "Grandfather, I beg you. Please grant my wish!"
Finally, Jonathan joined her. "I swear I will make Jenny happy throughout her life. I beg you, let me ask for her hand!"
"Jenny, wake up. Don't make things difficult for your grandfather," Maria was worried that Jenny would make Bima angry, so she immediately rushed to grab her.
Bima looked at the two young people in front of him and pointed at Jenny. "You came here just to force me? All of you…"
Suddenly, his eyes darkened and his body went limp, swaying backwards. Luckily, Jonathan reacted in time and caught him right away.
When Bima woke up, he was already in the hospital with an oxygen tube in his nose. He saw Jenny sitting on the edge of his bed crying.
"Why are you crying? Just take the oxygen out. If I die, nobody can get in your way anymore. You can get married right away," said Bima.
"Grandfather, I'm sorry, I am guilty. As long as you are fine, I will accompany you for the rest of your life. I'll be by your side," Jenny was really scared. She cried loudly as she held Bima's hand.
Bima felt uncomfortable when he saw his granddaughter crying like this. His family had to lose Jenny at a very young age. But when she returned, Jenny had lost her father.
She did not have a father to raise her properly. Her brother was not reliable either.
Wasn't it his job as a grandfather to take their place?
"You are so noisy. Even if I die, I'll wake up again because you're noisy. I know you will cry in front of my grave every day," Bima closed his eyes in annoyance.
"Grandfather, I won't bother you. I will not cry nor cause trouble, as long as you are healthy again. Grandma Marsha finally accepted you. You haven't even got your happiness yet. I'm not going to fight with you again," Jenny said as she continued to cry.
Finally, Bima softened his voice. "I remember when I passed out, it was Jonathan who helped me. Is he alright?"
"He… He fell and also fainted because his injury hasn't healed yet," Jenny said.
"I am fine now, so don't worry. Go and see how things are," said Bima.
"Grandfather, you won't forbid me to meet him?" Jenny asked, confused.
"Didn't he fall for helping me? Hurry up and see him. When he wakes up, tell me," said Bima.
Maria walked into the room carrying a thermos and said with a smile, "The doctor will examine your grandfather in a moment. He's fine now so go to Jonathan's room. If he wakes up, don't forget to tell us."
"Alright then. I'll go now." Jenny immediately got up and took her bag.
When she was about to leave, Bima said deliberately, "Running so fast, huh? Who just said they wanted me to be healthy? Who said they wouldn't marry and wanted to always stay with me?"

Marakar
Far from the exploration he yearned to go on, Rae, the Kijah prince, finds himself in the middle of the impending war between Kijah'dar and Ga'ani. Unknown to him, or to the rest of the states, the Kijah Magister plots to overthrow the queen, and he will stop at nothing to achieve his plans. Marakar is a fantasy adventure series about the island states of Mar’narana (with focus primarily on the two states, Kijah'dar and Ga'ani). Tensions between the big players are rising, with more and more plots getting revealed, and powers are unexpectedly shifting. As the string of seemingly unconnected events grows taut, the smaller nations suddenly find themselves into the midst of things, struggling with the sudden shifting of their boards. On a more meta note, I am trying to develop two storylines parallel to each other. As you might have noticed, odd-numbered chapters are very different from even-numbered chapters. That’s because those are the two different storylines; odd-numbered chapters are in the present, while even-numbered ones are in the past. Once the two eventually meet I'll continue with just the present storyline. This story can also be found here where it currently updates every other Sunday (about twice a month). Feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read. :) tw/cw list (please take care of your mental health! Don't force yourself to read these chapters if they may harm you). -------> Chapter 14: hate crime description.
