Chapter 191. Learning to Give In
“This is the final gown—the most expensive one, designed by a world-famous fashion designer. The price is truly staggering, around twelve million USD, or roughly 170 billion rupiahs. As we can see, the gown is adorned with countless of the finest diamonds scattered all over its surface. Moreover, the pure white color of the soft and elastic fabric adds an elegant touch, making the dress appear simple yet incredibly stunning and graceful.”“We’ll take this one.”Just as the designer finished explaining, Jackson quickly made his decision. From the very beginning, his eyes had been fixed on that last gown—it looked the simplest, yet it was undeniably the most captivating one there.“No! Jenny doesn’t like that gown.”Jennyfer immediately voiced her objection. Her heart nearly jumped out of her chest the moment she heard Jackson’s words. Her lips trembled as she tried to suppress her shock—not only because of Jackson’s sudden decision, but also because of the dress’s outrageous price.“Th
Chapter 192. A Daughter-in-Law’s Rebuke
As the evening approached, Jackson’s car slowed down and came to a stop in front of Madam Ester’s residence.Now, the four of them sat facing each other — Madam Ester beside Mr. Andreas, while Jennyfer sat next to Jackson.“Jenny... I’m sorry about what happened before. I was confused and didn’t know what else to do to help your sister, dear.”Before Jackson could even open his mouth, Madam Ester had already begun by apologizing to her youngest daughter.It wasn’t without reason. A terrible fight had broken out earlier between Madam Ester and Mr. Andreas — right after the kidnapping of Jennyfer, which had been orchestrated with the help of Madam Ester’s own siblings.Mr. Andreas had been furious — truly furious. He couldn’t take it anymore and finally brought up everything his wife had done to their youngest daughter. Yes, he loved their eldest too, but he knew not every means could be justified, not even to free Brielle from prison.“I understand, Mother,” Jennyfer replied softly.“S
Chapter 193. A Special Dinner
After finishing their important discussion — the main reason they had come there — Jackson and Jennyfer excused themselves, as dusk had begun to settle and night was drawing near.Jackson glanced at his wristwatch. The clock hands were pointing close to 7 p.m.“Let’s just go straight home, okay, Darling?”Jennyfer murmured softly as she leaned back against the car seat and rested her head.“Shall we grab a quick bite first?”“Oh, sure. I’m starving too.”“If you’re tired, just lie down for a bit, Honey.”“Hmm... I’m so sleepy.”The car continued to move steadily along the road, and before long, Jennyfer had fallen fast asleep. The exhaustion from their long day together made her drift off without realizing it.Jackson stopped the car right at the lobby of his own luxurious five-star hotel, then turned to look at Jennyfer, who was still sound asleep.He leaned closer toward her, gazing at his tired little sweetheart, a soft smile forming on his lips. Jackson kept leaning in, inch by in
Chapter 194. The First Experience
Jennyfer’s heart pounded faster and faster. For some reason, Jackson’s gaze tonight felt completely different — warm, tender, and filled with affection. She felt like a queen being cherished by her king.After finishing dinner, Jackson began pouring the blood-red wine into the two tall, slender glasses before them. It was only a light alcohol, with just 2 percent content, something Jackson believed would never make his young lady tipsy like before.Cling!Their glasses clinked softly as they toasted without saying a word, just smiling faintly at each other.This time, Jennyfer didn’t ask or say much, which made Jackson even happier — she wasn’t rejecting him at all, even though she surely knew what they were drinking contained alcohol.The small, elegant bottle emptied quickly after filling both glasses. They sipped slowly, letting time pass unhurriedly.Jackson was gathering his courage. He had something very important to tell the girl he adored. He had wanted to say it since yesterd
Chapter 195. Awakening the Adrenaline
“Thank you, Darling. Honestly, I was scared… but I’ll do my best to protect this trust you’ve given me,” said Jennyfer softly after she finished admiring the bright white gemstone on her finger. She then looked back into Jackson’s eyes, extending both hands toward him, who was still kneeling on one knee before her.“Do you like it, Honey?”Jackson smiled warmly as he gently squeezed her fingers.When Jennyfer tried to pull his hand to help him stand up, Jackson chuckled softly and rose from his kneeling position.“The stars above are witnesses to everything tonight, Honey. So beware — if you ever break your promise, I’ll hunt down every man who dares come near you,” Jackson whispered, wrapping his arms around her. Jennyfer froze for a second, startled by his words.Life was full of choices. And though Jennyfer trusted Jackson completely, those words still made her heart skip in a mix of fear and awe.“Well then,” she replied half-jokingly, “if I ever betray you, I promise I won’t marr
Chapter 196. Beginning
Jennyfer protested in a slightly annoyed tone, commenting on Jackson’s recent behavior.“It’s because I was afraid you’d avoid me again, Honey,” Jackson replied with a teasing chuckle, his lips still glistening.“You’re so mean, ugh!”Before Jennyfer could finish her words, Jackson leaned in again and captured her lips once more. This time, his kiss was gentler, softer than before.The moment lingered—long enough for Jennyfer to stop turning away, even after Jackson released the hand that had been resting on her head.Soon, Jackson ended the kiss before his growing desire got the better of him. He didn’t want a repeat of what had happened earlier that morning. He knew she wasn’t ready, and he didn’t want to push her.Jackson gave her a moment to catch her breath, just as he took his own time to calm himself down. He gently fixed her slightly messy hair and straightened her wrinkled dress.“Let’s go home, Honey.”“Hmm.”With one arm around her shoulders, Jackson guided Jennyfer out of
Chapter 197. forcing
Was it the effect of alcohol seeping through his veins, dulling his senses and clouding his judgment? Or was it something else — a longing that had been buried too deep for too long, now breaking free?Jackson couldn’t tell. All he knew was that his heart raced uncontrollably every time Jennyfer looked at him.His hand moved almost on instinct, drawn toward her warmth. He wasn’t thinking — not logically, at least.Suddenly, Jennyfer’s lashes fluttered open. Her gaze, still hazy and confused, met his. For a moment, silence hung thick between them.Then she tried to push him back, her fingers trembling.“Love…?” Jackson murmured softly, his voice a low whisper near her ear.“Hmm?” she replied faintly, trying to steady her breath.“I… I want to take a shower,” she said, her tone breaking, her mind trying to catch up with reality.Jackson exhaled slowly, his forehead resting against hers. “Just a little longer,” he whispered, his words brushing her lips.Jennyfer turned her head slightly,
Chapter 198. The First Promise
There wasn’t much hair on his chest, but right now, Jennyfer could feel it clearly against her palm.Gulp!Jackson swallowed hard. His heartbeat became irregular, and his breathing grew uneven.“Darling…” Jennyfer called softly.She moved her hand and wrapped her arms around Jackson’s strong waist again.“Hmm?”Jackson only hummed, trying to control the storm of emotions rising inside him.“Do you really love me, Darling?”The question slipped out from her lips — a question she had asked countless times before. Jennyfer’s mind seemed to drift farther away, as though she wasn’t fully grounded on earth anymore.“You don’t need to ask that again, Honey. I love you more than you could imagine. You’re the only woman I’ve ever loved this deeply — after my mother.”Jennyfer smiled softly at his words.“It’s getting hot. Let’s take a bath,” she said, stepping toward the large bathtub.“Alright.”Jackson helped her carefully — washing her shoulders and down to her feet. But each time he tried
Chapter 199. The Argument
As promised, right at five o’clock, Jackson ended his work at the company.There were still a few documents left unsigned, but he didn’t care anymore — he had made a promise to be home by five. Yet now, the clock had struck five, and he was still at the office!Quickly, Jackson went downstairs and got into his car.The air outside was hazy, the evening sky heavy with clouds.When he finally stepped into his luxurious home, Jackson froze. Sitting quietly on the sofa downstairs was his little sweetheart — already dressed up, clearly waiting for him.“Darling? You just got home? Was there traffic?”As soon as she saw him, Jennyfer stood up, her face lighting up with a smile that could melt anyone’s heart. His smile in return always made her heart flutter.“A little. I got caught up with work at the office,” Jackson said, opening one arm to welcome her into his embrace.“Oh. Hurry up and take a shower then,” Jennyfer said with a gentle smile as she nestled in his arms.Jackson stroked her
Chapter 200. Different Class
“You lied to me again, Brother?! So, all this time everything has just been a lie? You’ve gone too far! What good does it do you to deceive me like this?!” Jennyfer snapped angrily, realizing that everything she had known about Jackson had been nothing but deception.It meant that the love Jackson had confessed to her might have been nothing more than a lie—something fake. Or perhaps there was another hidden motive behind it? Then why had he agreed to marry her sister back then?!Oh God, what should I do? Jennyfer’s mind screamed in despair. Of course, their social class was completely different. Jackson’s father would surely accuse her of only going after his son’s wealth.Jennyfer’s eyes began to well up with tears, too shocked to accept everything she had just learned—right when she was about to meet Jackson’s father.“Ehhhhh, don’t jump to conclusions like that. Please, listen to my explanation first,” Jackson pleaded, panic creeping into his voice. He had never seen his lover’s f
