Take Me To Your Heart
Chapter 67 - Inciting Oma Lina


After the meal was over, Mommy Jessie left the group to receive a call from her husband. So did Regan who went to her room to pick up something. Be in the living room there are only Aunt Goddess, Renatta, Amanda and Oma Lina.


Oma Lina still looked in full detail at Renatta. He still had doubts about Renatta. He was really afraid that his grandson was only used by Renatta because he was rich.


"Continuing the question at the dinner table, try to tell me who you are, and what your family background is."


Because Renatta did not want to lie, he also explained everything honestly. He did not want to live with anxiety and anxiety because he lied about himself and his family.


"I'm just a normal woman from a normal family. I work as a secretary. My father was an inmate but is now free. I have a stepbrother and she is pregnant. My past is bad, but I won't repeat it a second time. I may not be the daughter-in-law Oma wanted. But I'm going to try to be a good granddaughter-in-law to this family" Renatta said.


Amanda smiled wryly at it. He did not expect Renatta would tell the truth about his father who was an ex-convict. Amanda stared at Oma Lina who seemed a little surprised by Renatta's explanation.


"What's? Ex-convict?" ask Oma again to make sure.


"Yes Oma. But papa is innocent, he's just vilified. Because he has no power and a lot of money, he cannot defend himself."


"Why do you like my granddaughter? Be honest! You must want the treasure, right?" asked Oma Lina who immediately thought bad because Renatta came from a family that was even worse than he had imagined.


"No Oma. I love Regan sincerely" Renatta replied.


Amanda looks clucked.


"Ck, there's no way Oma. It must be a treasure" Amanda said.


Renatta looked at Amanda a little sharply, but he did not want to make a fuss in front of Oma.


Shortly after, Regan came and answered his words.


"If he loves me for treasure. Maybe he's already asked for a fancy car and an expensive bag. The proof is that he lives simply and comfortably. Even to this day, I've never given her anything."


Regan sat down and looked at Oma Lina.


"Oma knows what I'm like. I couldn't have chosen a woman like that. Renatta is a good woman Oma," Regan added again.


"Which good woman likes to bully the weak," said Amanda as if to start a commotion.


Regan who did not like Amanda's attitude immediately took Renatta away from there and took him to Mommy Jessie who was on the porch next to the house.


Seeing an opportunity, Amanda begins to poison Oma Lina's mind by telling her the bad things Renatta had done to her.


"Oma, I hope Oma disagrees with Regan and Renatta's relationship. Me, Renatta and Regan used to be at Oma High School. But in those days, Renatta was an evil woman. I was often bullied and bullied by him. Even I got a panic disorder because of that and had to take medicine to calm him down. Does Oma want, Oma's favorite granddaughter to marry such a woman? Poor Regan Oma."


Oma Lina looked surprised and clenched her hands. He could not accept having an evil granddaughter-in-law.


"It's not just Oma, Oma remember about Regan's broken laptop? It was also by Renatta Oma. I don't know why Regan likes Renatta. Fear Regan was brainwashed by Renatta, Oma."


Amanda added to Renatta's ugliness so that Oma Lina grew disliked with Renatta.


"Even as I heard, Renatta's half-brother is unmarried, Oma. That means she's pregnant out of wedlock Oma. What happens if this family gets a daughter-in-law who has such a bad background? That one even tarnishes the good name of this family Oma. Even my divorce was due to Renatta's presence as the third person in my relationship with Devan. He's so mean, Oma. From the past until now he still likes to envy me," said Amanda who now pretends to be sad and shed her tears.


Oma hugged Amanda and said something that made Amanda smile.


"You just calm down. Oma would not approve of both. Oma will tell you that you are a suitable wife-to-be for Regan. Oma does not want, Regan will be unhappy after marrying Renatta who is full of problems in his life. Anyway you're calm lest you remain Oma's choice for Regan."

On the side porch of the house, Daddy Arthur has come and chatted with Mommy Jessie, Renatta and Regan. He even asked when his second happy day would take place.


"What do you think taking care of a wedding is that easy? If you're talking, please filtered first!"


Regan grunts. Mommy always has light hands.


"Where's Nat?" ask Daddy Arthur.


"If asked like that, I want time after my sister gives birth" Renatta replied.


"When that?" Mommy Jessie asked.


"About 4 months, Mom."


"Okay, we'll find a good date."


"The time is late Nat. Why wait for your sister to give birth?" ask Regan.


"I just want Nesha's sister's soy sauce later. I also still need time to melt your Oma's heart. It looks like he's very close to Amanda."


"Yes, they are very close. Moreover, Regan's parents still hope Amanda will be the granddaughter of her daughter-in-law. Plus, Amanda's divorced from Devan now" said Daddy Arthur.


Renatta was surprised, because indeed he did not know about this matter. He even still blocked Devan's number to this day.


What kind of friend are you, Nat. Your best friend doesn't know. You weren't even there when he was sad right now. He is the first person who is always there when you are in trouble. I'm sorry Dev.


Renatta scolded himself in his heart. He felt like a bad and useless friend.


Mommy Jessie didn't seem to like hearing her husband's words. Although Oma Lina still wants Amanda to be her daughter-in-law's granddaughter. Mommy Jessie would disagree.


"Although Mommy has known Amanda for a long time. But Mommy won't let Oma force you. Mommy will support you two to be together. Mommy doesn't like Amanda very much either. I think she's a strange woman. Instead of being sad after the divorce, she approached Oma to be close to you again. Mommy gets confused where her mind goes. Did he think that your feelings could be so easily obtained after hurting you?"


Both Regan and Renatta, both of them just silently did not respond to Mommy Jessie's words. They don't want to talk about bad things from others. Enough of them to know. But if later it's too much, maybe Renatta will not be able to stay still.


"Oma must have agreed for a long time, too" said Daddy Arthur.


They were still chatting together. It looks like a harmonious family. Apparently Amanda saw their familiarity behind the window. He clenched his hands and looked at Renatta full of hatred. Though he knew them first, but why Renatta who was more familiar and seemed preferred.


Amanda went back to the living room with her upset face.


"Why are you Manda?" ask Oma who saw Amanda's face being bent.


"Renatta, Mom. It seems like not only Regan was brainwashed, but Aunt Jessie and Om Arthur as well. They seem to like Renatta a lot."


Amanda complains that Oma Lina will act soon.


"You are calm, even if they agree, there is still an Oma who has not agreed. Oma still supports you."


Amanda smiled happily. Then he hugged Oma Lina.


"Thank you Oma."


"Everything dear."
