"Mom, I really don't want it this way!" Justin firmly.
Tonight her mother told her to wear nice clothes. His intentions were clear, the extended family was planning to match him with a businessman's daughter.
"You already know what Oma looks like, right?" mother of Magda said.
Justin could not argue. He was forced to follow the steps of the mother into a meeting room that had been prepared. In the room, there were his grandparents and the family of prospective women who wanted to be introduced to him.
"Oh, finally my hero came too" greeted Mr. Wilson, Justin's grandfather.
The middle-aged man had always been proud of his grandson who was indeed smart and handsome. The grandfather immediately hugged Justin as soon as he arrived in the room. It was with great pleasure that he brought Justin to sit next to him.
Justin seemed to put on a reluctant expression to be there, while the others were happy with the meeting.
"Your grandson is very handsome, Mr. Wilson," praised Mrs Russell.
"Haha ... Your daughter is also very beautiful, Mrs Russell. Aren't they very compatible to match?" the grandfather also praised the daughter of the Russell family.
Ellena blushed in embarrassment to get compliments from grandfather. He stole a glance at Justin who had managed to attract his attention at the first meeting.
Justin avoids eye contact with Ellena. He is not interested in the arrangements made by adults. His mind was filled with Jessy. Jessy should be there right now. She doesn't want to marry anyone other than Jessy.
"Justin's college where?" ask Mr. Russell.
"I went to XX College" Justin replied.
"Oh, you went to college at your own mother's?" ask Mr. Russell to make sure.
"Haha ... Right, Mr. Russell. My son is also studying at my place. The plan for the new S2 is to study abroad" continued Magda's mother.
"Mrs Magda is great, although busy as an entrepreneur is still active as a lecturer. Justin's plan to continue S2 where?"
Justin did not answer. If I could be honest, I would not go to college. He wants to go straight to work after graduation and marry Jessy.
"Certainly went to college in England, where his father was, of course" said Mrs Wilson, Justin's grandmother.
Hearing his father's name called, Justin grew lazy to be there. Good food that tastes bland in the mouth.
"Oh, Yes. Why isn't Mr Jonathan here?" ask Mr. Russell.
Now it was Mr and Mrs Wilson's face that turned sour.
"My husband is a busy person, it seems like he can't attend tonight," Mother Magda replied trying to melt the atmosphere.
"Ellena's in college herself where?" ask Mr. Wilson.
"I studied in the United States majoring in Management and just entered the third semester," replied Ellena.
"This is when Justin and Ellena get married, who wants to give up college?" ask Mrs Russell.
Justin couldn't stay there at all. Any talk that goes against his will, he cannot argue.
"Justin certainly wouldn't mind if he had to move to college. Especially to accompany a woman as beautiful as Ellena," said Mrs Wilson.
"In my opinion, if both of them want to stay in college, it does not matter. Nowadays you can take online lectures. After all, despite being far apart, they could visit each other by plane. It wasn't a troublesome thing," Mother Magda said.
"Ellena doesn't mind moving to Justin's college. We'd be happier to be closer to Ellena" Mrs Russell said.
"If we are both compatible, we should immediately determine the date of their marriage" said Mr. Wilson.
Justin stopped moving his tablespoon. He was not asked for consent at all for the match. If you have to get married, you don't feel fully ready.
"Is that not too fast? I gave Justin and Ellena time to get to know each other first. They are afraid that they are suddenly shocked to have to get married," said Magda's mother who seemed to be able to read the turmoil in her son's mind.
"If you delay a feared marriage can happen things that are not desirable. They get to know each other after marriage" Mr Wilson said.
Magda's mother felt a little insinuated by her father's words. She was pregnant before she married Justin's father.
"If we also had no problem with marriage at a young age. They can also still go to college even though they are married" Mr. Russell said.
The conversation about matchmaking continues. Justin tried to ignore even though their every utterance became a burden to his mind.
After two hours, Russell's family came home. Justin is with his mother and grandparents.
"Other times you have to be more friendly if you meet other people, Justin. Your attitude will not be good if you become a businessman" criticizes Mr. Wilson.
"I really don't like Opa's plan this time. I don't want to be betrothed!" Justin can express his heart.
"Haha ... What are you talking about, Justin? Marriage is a natural thing in our family" said the grandfather.
"Does Justin have a girlfriend?" ask the grandmother.
"Justin doesn't have a girlfriend. I've asked her many times" said Magda's mother.
"So, it doesn't matter, right, if we choose a mate for him? Ellena is also a beautiful, intelligent, and graceful woman. Where else can find a woman as good as that," said the grandmother.
"Maybe he just wants to focus on learning, Oma."
"Wedding can disrupt the focus of learning? Moreover, Justin is a smart child, Opa believes both campus and household affairs will also be fine,"
Justin took a breath. He was still thinking about what the impact would be if they knew he already had a girlfriend. Maybe Jessy's gonna get in trouble for that. They couldn't possibly let Jessy get close to the Wilson family's beloved only granddaughter.
The matchmaking with the Russells was actually for business purposes only. He knew his grandfather was handling a large project to develop the palm oil processing industry. Meanwhile, the Russell family owns tens of thousands of hectares of oil palm plantations. If the two families can come together, then their business will be smoother.
