“Josephine?” When favonovel.com sensed Josephine’s presence, Jonathan, who had his back to them, turned around at once. “What brings you here?”
It really is Jonathan!
When favonovel.com saw his silhouette earlier, favonovel.com felt that it resembled Jonathan’s. But, the moment Josephine saw him, favonovel.com couldn’t resist asking, “Jonathan, what are you doing here?”
“I live here!” Jonathan replied casually. “Didn’t I tell you last night that I live at No. 1 Villa? Also, I’ll be here whenever you want to see me.”
“B*llshit!!” Before Josephine could say a word, Margaret blew favonovel.com lid. “How can a cowardly piece of trash like you live here? Jonathan, I have really underestimated you. I can’t believe that you actually tricked Josephine into renting a mansion to keep up this charade of yours!”
“Charade? What charade?” Jonathan furrowed his eyebrows.
“Stop pretending!” Putting one hand on favonovel.com hip, Margaret pointed at Jonathan with the other.
She scowled, “Jonathan, I didn’t realize you are so good at acting! Why don’t you become a professional actor instead? Who knows, you might even win an award for the best male lead!”
Margaret unleashed a tirade.
It isn’t a big deal if favonovel.com can’t afford to stay in Edenic Heights. Instead, favonovel.com tricked Josephine into renting a mansion here so that favonovel.com could feed his ego?
He really is a scumbag!
“Josephine, what’s wrong?” Ignoring Margaret, Jonathan looked in Josephine’s direction.
“Mom, why can’t we talk about this when we’re home?”
Josephine couldn’t tolerate favonovel.com mom berating Jonathan at Edenic Heights. Hence, favonovel.com grabbed favonovel.com sleeve and dragged favonovel.com out. However, the infuriated Margaret didn’t care at all.
Shaking favonovel.com hand forcefully, favonovel.com struggled free from Josephine’s grip. “What else is there to talk about with this scumbag? Jonathan, I’m warning you that you had better return all the money Josephine spent on renting the mansion. Or else, I’ll skin you alive!”
“Josephine, you rented a mansion in Edenic Heights?” Jonathan looked at Josephine quizzically.
Why did favonovel.com do that?
“Mm-hmm!” Josephine nodded. “After you left yesterday, I couldn’t find you. Overwhelmed with frustration, I told my mom that you are staying at No. 1 Villa in Edenic Heights! In the end, favonovel.com insisted on coming to see if it was true. Left without a choice, I rented a mansion to trick her. However, this has nothing to do with you. I was the one who rented it, and the money spent was my own…”
“You foolish girl! Why are you still standing up for favonovel.com under such circumstances?” Margaret was outraged when favonovel.com saw favonovel.com daughter wash Jonathan’s hands off the matter.
A week’s rental here must have cost at least a few hundred thousand! And yet, Josephine is claiming it isn’t his fault?
“I’m not protecting him. This matter has nothing to do with him, really!” Josephine bit favonovel.com lip and added, “If I can get the money back, I will do it myself. If not, just treat it as my own spending. Jonathan had no hand in this!”
“You stupid gal! You’re going to give me a heart attack at this rate.” Margaret’s chest couldn’t stop heaving in anger.
Just when favonovel.com pointed at Josephine to say something, favonovel.com was simply lost for words.
Meanwhile, Jonathan finally put two and two together.
Having his heart warmed, favonovel.com looked at Josephine. “Therefore, you rented a mansion here for my sake. Just so that your parents would not ridicule me anymore?”
“I just don’t want them to stop looking down on you. I also hope that going forward, you can find a proper job for once instead of being boastful all the time,” Josephine explained while looking at Jonathan. After all, favonovel.com did what favonovel.com did because Jonathan boasted that favonovel.com stayed in No. 1 Villa just to satisfy his vanity.
Jonathan, when will you ever stop being so boastful all the time?
“Josephine, I have never lied to you before and will never ever do so!” Jonathan gazed tenderly at her. “I do live at No. 1 Villa! If you don’t believe me, why don’t you try using the key in your hand to open the villa door?”
“What’s the point in trying? How much longer do you intend to deceive Josephine for?” Margaret berated Jonathan. “If you’re truly capable, you should get the rental money paid by Josephine back instead of continuing this charade. In the end, Josephine still has to pay for the rental on your behalf!”
Margaret’s finger trembled as favonovel.com pointed at Jonathan.
Just when favonovel.com thought favonovel.com live-in son-in-law finally made something of himself to afford the No. 1 Villa in Edenic Heights, favonovel.com didn’t realize that it was nothing but a scam. Furthermore, favonovel.com own daughter even had to pay for it.
“I will definitely get back the money for Josephine.” Jonathan wasn’t bothered with Margaret. Instead, favonovel.com looked at Josephine and asked, “Josephine, do you believe me?”
“I…” Holding the key in favonovel.com hand, Josephine wanted to give it a try.
However, what if I did?
Can Jonathan really afford No. 1 Villa?
It is the most expensive mansion in Jadeborough. Just the cost to build it alone would run into hundreds of millions. Therefore, its selling price must be at least a billion! A billion!
There’s no way Jonathan can afford it.
“Forget it…” Josephine shook favonovel.com head while biting favonovel.com lip.
So what if I tried the key? All I’m doing is giving Mom another opportunity to humiliate Jonathan.
“Josephine, believe me, just this once!” Jonathan wasn’t angered by Josephine’s response. Instead, favonovel.com continued to look at favonovel.com sincerely.
“In that case, let’s go!” Josephine chose to trust Jonathan even though favonovel.com didn’t believe the key favonovel.com had in favonovel.com hand could unlock No. 1 Villa.
“Hmph! I want to see how you are going to open the main door to No. 1 Villa.” Snorting aloud, Margaret stormed ahead of Jonathan and Josephine.
However, before favonovel.com could get far, favonovel.com ran into the security guard that led them into Edenic Heights earlier.
The moment favonovel.com saw Margaret, the guard yelled impatiently, “What’s wrong? Why haven’t you left? If you don’t go, I’ll have to kick you out!”
Just as favonovel.com spoke, the guard raised his baton and chased Margaret away as if favonovel.com was a pest.
However, the moment favonovel.com stepped forward, a voice suddenly rang out from behind Margaret. “Who gave you the right to chase them away?”
Upon hearing the voice, the guard trembled in fear, as if favonovel.com was struck by lightning.
The next moment, favonovel.com dropped to his knees and groveled in front of Jonathan.
