Chapter 650 - Gathering At The Bar

"Dad, too many people in this room makes Anya tired. It would be better if she could rest. You also need to rest," Aiden tried to gently drive Bima away so as not to make a fuss in the room.

Bima took a deep breath hearing that. "Alright, alright. I won't force Ivan anymore. I'll leave him to decide his marriage. Since I'm getting kicked out, I better go home."

Maria laughed at that. She knew her father-in-law was not offended. "I will accompany you to go home so that Anya can rest."

After Bima came out, Nadine and Tara still wanted to accompany Anya. Meanwhile, Harris continued to wait patiently for his fiancée while chatting with Aiden.

Ivan only chatted briefly with Anya and Aiden, then intended to go home.

"Tara, can you come home with Harris and Nadine later? I want to talk to Uncle Ivan first. I'll catch up with you later."

Tara nodded and went back to chat with Anya.

Nico walked up to Ivan and embraced his shoulder very naturally, as if he was used to doing it. Ivan didn't like being touched by other people, but he didn't mind it if it was Nico.

He often saw Nico embrace Aiden's shoulder like this, but Nico was never that close to him. In fact, he felt very jealous.

"Anya, you rest. I'll go home first," Ivan and Nico left the room together.

After entering the elevator, Nico immediately called Raka and made an appointment with him. "Raka, let's go have a drink. I'm with Uncle Ivan."

"Do you mind if I invite one more person? I'm with Jonathan," said Raka.

"Jonathan?"

After Toni was imprisoned, Galih and Indah ignored him, having no intention of helping his family. Keara had also cut her relationship with Toni so that all of her actions would not be exposed.

Meanwhile, Jonathan also hated his father for what he did to Alisa's mother.

As he was in charge of the Srijaya Family now, Jonathan no longer cared for his father and mother. He just wanted to make sure that his mother wasn't short of anything, and he didn't have any intention to bail his father out.

The Srijaya family and the Mahendra family had been working together in their business. That's why Raka and Jonathan knew and got along with each other.

"Right. Brother Ivan will not object. It's up to you then," said Raka.

"It's okay, just let him. The busier the better," Nico replied.

After Nico hung up the phone, Ivan immediately said to him, "I'm tired. I want to go home and rest."

"Uncle, you are still in your 30s. Why do you live like an old man? Why are you coming home so early? It's not even eight o'clock yet. Don't you want to know what Raka thinks about your marriage to Raisa?" Nico tried to persuade Ivan into hanging out with him.

Finally, Ivan had no other choice but to follow Nico's request. After all, this was the first time Nico tried to get closer to him and Ivan didn't want to reject him.

Raka and Jonathan arrived early at a bar. They rented a private place so they were not disturbed by the presence of other visitors.

As soon as Nico arrived, he immediately greeted Jonathan. "Jonathan, did you hear the news?"

"What news? That my uncle and aunt found their daughter? You should call me uncle. I'm your aunt's cousin," Jonathan said on purpose.

"What does it mean? Have they found their daughter?" Raka asked excitedly.

"Right. It turned out that my aunt and Keara are sisters. No wonder their faces are very similar," Nico replied.

"No way!" Raka, Ivan and Jonathan spoke at the same time, making Nico burst out into laughter.

To cover his embarrassment, Jonathan immediately raised the glass in front of him. Raka kicked Nico's leg irritably. Meanwhile, Ivan still looked calm.

"Tara has accepted my proposal, but she seems dissatisfied with my personality. Now I am trying to better myself. Tara even limited my curfew and told me to come home before 12. I'm really like a pathetic Cinderella," Nico raised his glass. "Let's drink, uncles!"

"Who is your uncle? Don't make me look old!" Jonathan said with a smile.

"My aunt is your cousin, so you are my uncle. And you too, Raka. Raisa will marry Uncle Ivan soon so you will be my uncle. I already have two uncles, and now I'll have two new uncles. Do I look like a child who's short of uncles?" Nico complained.

When he heard Nico's words, Raka immediately slapped the back of his head. "Nephew, listen to your uncle."

"Get off me!" Nico immediately brushed Raka's hand.

Jonathan chuckled at it. "No one wants to be your uncle. Don't call us uncles. Just pretend that we are your friends."

"Raka, your mother discussed marriage to my father and said that Raisa likes me. Do you know about it?" Ivan suddenly asked.

While they were talking, a girl suddenly came into the room carrying a basket in her right hand and a bouquet of roses in her left. "Excuse me, does anyone want to buy flowers?"

"Little girl, don't you see there are only men here? Who should I give these flowers to?" Nico said on purpose.

Raka immediately rebuked him in a low voice, "Nico, if you don't intend to buy it, don't tease her. She just wants to sell them."

Nico replied to him with the same low voice. "I know this girl. She is Della, the adopted daughter of the Mawardi family and the girl who ran away from her marriage."

Raka looked at the girl. "The Mawardi family adopted a daughter to become their daughter-in-law?"

"You singles don't have to buy flowers. Let me and Uncle Ivan buy them for our fiancée. Later when I come home late, I can tell Tara that I'm late because I got her flowers," Nico smiled as he said it.

Jonathan shook his head. "Tara won't be that gullible."

As soon as Della heard that Nico wanted to buy something, she walked over to him and smiled. "Sir, this flower is freshly picked. If stored in a vase, it can last several weeks. You can give it to your lover or wife, or maybe your mother."

"What's in the basket?" Jonathan asked curiously.

Della didn't know the men sitting on this sofa, but when she saw them, she felt that they were not as violent as the other men in the bar.

She was neither too scared nor nervous.

As soon as she got closer to their table, she knelt beside the table and put down the basket she was carrying.

When Jonathan was looking at the contents, Nico took a condom of various types and colors while joking. "You singles can't even use this. Even though Uncle Ivan has a fiancée, he can't use it either."

When he heard Nico's words, Raka immediately kicked his leg under the table. But since he was used to Raka's kick, Nico managed to dodge it. He leaned back on the sofa, laughing out loud.

Under the dim light, Ivan saw Della's face more clearly. His eyes suddenly froze, fixated on that face. His lips fell open as he stared intently at her.

"Is there anything you wish to buy, sir?" Della asked in her clear voice.

"What is your name?" Ivan asked.

Nico looked at his uncle in confusion.

He approached his uncle and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, what's wrong?"

"She looks like someone," Ivan replied in a low voice.

Nico took a closer look at Della's face and then was stunned by the sight.
