Chapter 29 Fury
It was seven in the morning when Jennifer called Jonathan. “I’m making breakfast at my place. You
should come over half an hour later to join me.”
Her gentle voice was pleasant to the ear, so much so that it made him forget to reject her. “Sure! I’ll be
there.”
It was half-past seven when he arrived at her house in Baykeep.
After she opened the door for him, Jennifer went into the kitchen to bring out the breakfast. Then, she
poured a glass of milk for him and brought him a comfortable chair to sit on. It was as though she was
a treating a lord. That was how much she cared about Jonathan.
There was a huge shift in Jennifer’s attitude after she decided to accept him.
“Let’s eat together,” she said with a smile.
Sunlight was pouring through the window and landing on Jennifer’s hair. It was as though her hair was
coated in a layer of gold, making her look like a goddess that descended from the heavens.
The sight thoroughly stunned him. “You’re so beautiful, Jennifer.”
She instantly blushed. “I’m not a young woman anymore. Being beautiful is no longer something I
associate myself with.”
“You are beautiful in my heart,” Jonathan insisted.
“Come, let’s eat. Breakfast won’t be as tasty if it gets cold.”
Both of them sat down next to each other and enjoyed the meal.
Jonathan cut up a sunny-side up egg and placed it in his mouth. “This is so good.”
Seeing how much he was enjoying the egg, Jennifer gave hers to him.
Jonathan smiled sweetly.
He finished breakfast relatively quickly and looked like he wanted more. It made her really happy to see
him enjoying the breakfast she had made that much. Thus, she moved some of the food on her plate to
his.
Once breakfast was over, Jennifer washed the dishes.
Jonathan wanted to help, but she said no, so he sat on the couch with nothing to do.
Thoughts swirled in his mind again. Maybe it’s not too bad settling down and having a home to come
back to. No, no. It only seems pretty good for the moment. I’m too used to being alone on the road. If I
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthave to stay in one place for a long time, I’ll definitely go crazy.
“I’ll go and change my clothes. We’ll head to the company together once I’m done,” Jennifer informed.
Then, she paused and asked, “Wait, are you still going to work?”
“Of course,” Jonathan answered.
“Oh yeah, you still need to protect Yasmin.”
Both of them exchanged a smile before she returned to her room.
Ten minutes later, Jennifer exited her room in a black, sexy outfit that came in a set. It outlined her
figure so clearly that his hand was getting itchy.
Her outfit made her looked absolutely stunning.
Jonathan could not look away from her.
It made Jennifer happy when she saw his expression.
She suddenly thought about something and said, “How about we go shopping later, Jonathan? I’ll help
you pick out a few shirts. Your current one is looking way too old.”
“Really? I think it looks fine. I can still wear it.”
“I just want to dress you up better. What, you don’t want to?” There was a bit of playfulness in her
voice.
Jonathan kept trying to warn himself to not get any closer to her, but he could not hold himself back
after seeing her. Therefore, he swiftly said, “Of course I want you to!”
“That’s more like it.” She snickered.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door.
Both of them were shocked because strangers rarely ever came knocking in the small housing area
Jennifer lived in.
Jonathan stood up. “I’ll see who it is.”
Jennifer nodded.
When he went to open the door, he saw two unfamiliar women standing at the entrance. Both of them
had bucket waists. One of them looked like she was thirty years old while the other looked like she was
in her fifties. He guessed that they were a pair of mother and daughter.
When Jennifer saw the duo, her expression soured.
She knew those two people because they were Wesley’s mother and sister. In other words, they were
her former mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
Her sister-in-law was called Bethany Ackerman, while her mother-in-law was Henrietta Weber. Both of
them treated her harshly when she was still Wesley’s wife. Their arrival certainly did not spell good
news.
“Who are you?” Bethany glared at Jonathan. He smirked and responded with a question of his own,
“Who are you?”
When Bethany saw Jennifer behind him, she immediately squeezed past him and screamed at her,
“You’re pretty good, you vixen! You managed to get yourself a gigolo and break my brother’s hand!”
It was pretty clear that those two women were looking for trouble.
Henrietta invited herself into Jennifer’s home as well. She studied the interior before she mocked, “I
already knew you’re a vixen when I first saw you. I shouldn’t have agreed to let you marry my son back
then. Look at you now. Even though your divorce hasn’t been long, you already brought a gigolo back
into your house. I knew I was right about you. You can’t live without a man to suck off of, can you?”
Jennifer was infuriated by the two of them. She roared, “Get out of my house right now! Out!”
It was then Jonathan understood what was going on. He suddenly approached her, held her by her
waist, and planted a kiss on her cheek.
Jennifer was flabbergasted.
On the other hand, Jonathan grinned at Henrietta and Bethany. “Is it so wrong that I love my wife? We
already got the marriage certificates, b*tches. You’re currently trespassing on our property and insulting
my wife. I’ve also recorded everything you two just said. The authorities will be knocking on your doors
soon.”
Bethany and Henrietta were stunned silent for a moment before the former exploded in anger. “How
dare you, you b*stard! You and that vixen-”
“Come now.” Jonathan chuckled. “Why so angry? You know, even if I get a mountain of cash from a fat,
ugly monster like you, I’ll just throw it all into the trashcan. If I were you, I wouldn’t have the bravery to
walk on the streets. I’m impressed that you can.”
“You…” Bethany was so livid that her body had started to tremble. “I’m going to kill you!” When she
finished, she tried to scratch Jonathan’s face.
Jennifer was thoroughly pissed off initially. However, when he spoke up for her, it made her feel safe.
However, at that moment, she suddenly began to worry.
Bethany rushed forward, and her mother did the same. Both of them were there to demand Jennifer
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpay for Wesley’s hospital bills. How could they not be furious when his hand was broken?
Both of them believed Jonathan would not hit them because they were women. That was why they
confidently charged toward him.
However, they were very wrong in their assumption.
Jonathan first kicked Bethany’s stomach and caused her to fall to the ground.
Then, he gave Henrietta a slap so hard that she spun around a couple of times before falling to the
floor.
“Get out of here right now! If you two refuse to leave, I’ll strip you both down before throwing you two
out!” he warned with disdain, “I don’t like hitting women, but I’m willing to make an exception for you
two.”
Bethany and her mother finally experienced his terror and scurried away while enduring the pain they
suffered at his hands.
Jonathan was still holding Jennifer’s waist even after the two women had left, and the latter was
shocked. “Are we going to be in trouble?”
“There’s not going to be trouble.” He spoke indifferently. “Do you know what this is called? This is
known as fighting fire with fire! You don’t need to worry about them. Come on, let’s go to the company
now.”
It was then she realized he had been holding her waist all that time. When she recalled how he kissed
her, she blushed and gently pushed his hand away.
Jonathan smirked. That felt good.
The two of them promptly went to the company. Jennifer still was not sure what to think about her
feelings for him, so she decided to go to the company in her own car. She did not want to reveal
anything about the two of them in the company yet.
It was a decision he was fine with as well since he was still feeling pretty conflicted about her.
Jennifer arrived at the company an hour before Jonathan did.
When he arrived at the company, it was already half past nine.
The sun was shining brightly.
The moment he got out of the car, Donald and the other security guards rushed toward him.
“Wow, where did you get this car, Jonathan?”
“Did you buy this car, Jonathan?”
All of them were asking all sorts of questions.
He found it quite endearing, though. With a smile, he answered, “Of course, I bought it.”
