At that moment, Mr. Andreas was overwhelmed with guilt toward his youngest daughter. He had almost arranged an engagement for her—without realizing that she was already married.“Huh! Ridiculous! The world really has gone upside down—people have lost their minds! How could all of this happen without my knowing?! Ah!”Mr. Andreas, feeling both angry and remorseful, vented his frustration by kicking at the grass along the roadside as he walked.-“Are you serious, Bram? How could Jackson do something like that?”The hoarse voice of Mr. Emerald echoed in the grand living room of his new home, where he now lived with his young wife—Mrs. Marina, Bramasta’s mother.“It’s true, Father. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Mr. Argan. He was the one who picked me up last night.”Bramasta continued his explanation. Yes, he was currently complaining to his father—and that man was none other than Jackson’s biological father.“Why has Jackson become so brutal lately, Father? Luckily, Bram didn’t s

“So, what should we do, Doctor? Please don’t let my wife throw up or have a fever again,” said Jackson, shocked to find out that Jennyfer really had typhoid fever.“Yes, that’s why we’ve already injected something into her IV fluid. Her medication will also be changed. Mrs. Jennyfer has to stay in the hospital for a few days,” the doctor explained while checking Jennyfer’s condition again.“All right, Doctor. Just do whatever’s best for my wife. Please make sure she doesn’t vomit again.”“Has Madam been feeling unwell emotionally? Because Mrs. Jennyfer’s condition has started to drop again. Aside from taking her medicine on time and eating more fruits and vegetables, her mental state also greatly affects her recovery process. Her heartbeat became irregular this afternoon. Are you feeling short of breath right now, Mrs. Jennyfer?”“No, Doctor. Just a little. But my stomach feels very sore,” Jennyfer replied weakly to the doctor treating her.“Oh, I see. It’s good that you’re not having

Jackson tried to understand what the woman he loved truly wanted. If she didn’t love him, then what should he do? Perhaps now was the right time to face it. Maybe Jennyfer’s sudden illness had been caused by the pressure from their marriage problems, and Jackson didn’t want to be selfish anymore.“Jenny, don’t be afraid. Tomorrow or the day after, I’ll take care of our divorce so you won’t have to feel burdened by this marriage anymore. I’ll make sure no one finds out about our relationship. You won’t even have to bear the title of widow, because we never did anything that would make you one.”After saying that, Jackson lowered his feet from the bed and straightened up.In a flash, Jennyfer reached out and grabbed his hand again, not wanting him to let go.“F–Jenny doesn’t hate you. And Jenny doesn’t mean she doesn’t love you either. But… do you really love Jenny?”That question made Jackson’s blood freeze instantly. He fell silent, processing the simple words that had just come out o

Indeed, Jennyfer had never known anything about Jackson and her sister Brielle’s marriage that took place two years ago.“Yes. That marriage just happened out of nowhere. Honestly, I didn’t even understand why I had to get married at that time. Maybe because my mind was a mess back then.”“What do you mean?! Jenny’s getting even more confused now.”“I didn’t really understand it either. At that time, I was just helping Grandpa Jakara on the road. When I escorted him back to his grand residence, suddenly he offered to marry his granddaughter to me. And strangely enough, I agreed right away, even though I hadn’t even seen the woman he wanted me to marry. That’s how it all happened since the beginning, and then the marriage just... happened.”“Oh my God! Are you serious?! No wonder at that time Sister Brielle suddenly announced she was getting married. No wonder everything felt off and strange. Even Mother treated you so terribly. Turns out, that’s the reason? Maybe she didn’t agree with

“Are we going to your mother’s house after this?”As soon as they stepped out of the uniquely designed cemetery, Jennyfer began asking her question.“Does it have to be today, Honey?” Jackson asked, sounding a little thoughtful.“If you’re busy, that’s fine. We can go another time,” Jennyfer quickly replied, not wanting to interfere with his work.“What do you mean another time? I want our wedding ceremony to be held soon. Maybe the day after tomorrow? On Saturday. What do you think, Honey?”“W-what?! That soon? Can we really arrange everything that quickly?!” Jennyfer looked at him, shocked by Jackson’s sudden declaration.“There’s nothing to arrange. We only need to pick our outfits and prepare ourselves. That’s it.”“Huh? Oh... r-right, that’s true,” Jennyfer stammered, realizing Jackson didn’t seem to want an extravagant wedding. She assumed he would probably rent the grand hall owned by his boss next to the Sultan building — that would certainly be more practical and save time.“
