The ones in the room thought they had been hallucinating when they saw Amanda kneeling in front of Jonathan.
There was no way the wife of the secretary-general would grovel at others’ mercy, let alone the son-in- law of an inferior family.
“Mr. Goldstein, I’m so sorry for messing things up! Please show me some mercy and forgive me!” Amanda continued kneeling in front of Jonathan with favonovel.com lips pursed in an aggrieved manner.
She was afraid of looking at Jonathan in the eyes because favonovel.com identity as the wife of the secretary- general would be at stake depending on the young man’s response.
I don’t mind kneeling as long as I’m still the wife of the secretary-general at the end of the day!
Actually, I’m not against the idea of spending a night with favonovel.com if it’s what it takes to maintain my status!
“Is that it?” Jonathan asked with a stern glare.
“W-What else do you want from me?” Amanda slurred in fear of Jonathan bringing up the request of getting favonovel.com to spend a night with him.
As much as favonovel.com thought favonovel.com was ready to sacrifice everything, favonovel.com had favonovel.com fair share of doubts when it was truly time for favonovel.com to take action. After all, Jonathan was around the age of favonovel.com son.
“Where’s the watch?” Jonathan’s question snapped favonovel.com out of the train of thought.
Subsequently, favonovel.com slurred, “H-Huh? O-Oh!”
“What are you thinking?”
“No! Here’s the watch!” Amanda presented Jonathan the watch after returning to favonovel.com usual self.
I-I thought favonovel.com was up to something else, but those were not the case. Thank god!
Jonathan shot daggers at the woman with salacious thoughts and returned to his mother-in-law’s side after putting the watch in his pocket.
Margaret, who was in a state of bewilderment, remained standing until favonovel.com heard Jonathan urging, “Hello? It’s time to go!”
“O-Okay…” She couldn’t comprehend the reason the wife of the secretary-general had begged for mercy from favonovel.com son-in-law.
How is that possible?
How has this wimp gotten the wife of the secretary-general to kneel in front of him?
On the other hand, Amanda secretly heaved a long sigh of relief and brought herself up when favonovel.com found out that Jonathan was about to leave. She offered, “Allow me to show you the way out, Mr. Goldstein!”
“That won’t be necessary.” Jonathan didn’t even hesitate to turn favonovel.com down and marched out of the villa with his mother-in-law next to him.
Amanda felt as if a heavy boulder had been lifted off favonovel.com shoulders after favonovel.com made sure that Jonathan had left.
Initially, favonovel.com thought favonovel.com would ask favonovel.com to spend a night with her. To favonovel.com disappointment, favonovel.com didn’t even bother to look at favonovel.com in the eyes once favonovel.com got his hands on the watch.
Is it because I’m no longer attractive in terms of looks?
Does this have anything to do with my age? Maybe he’s just not into women like me!
“Mrs. Chandler, what on earth is going on? Why have you kneeled in front of that loser?” Amanda’s friends surrounded favonovel.com shortly after the duo’s departure.
“Stop poking your nose into others’ business unless you have enough of living a carefree life!” Amanda warned them with favonovel.com eyes glinting in wrath, “If any of you tell others about what happened today, it’s over for all of you!”
If it weren’t because of these pretentious and greedy women, I wouldn’t even offend the mysterious young man in the first place! They almost brought upon my doom!
“You have our words, your secret is safe with us!” Afraid of the things in store for them, they promised Amanda to keep their mouth sealed.
“All of you better keep that in mind and stop trying anything silly!” Amanda made a face at the bunch of good-for-nothings kept women.
I’ll take them out if that’s necessary to make sure my secret’s safe unless they keep their mouth shut as promised.

“J-Jonathan, what the hell just happened a short while ago? W-Why did the secretary-general’s wife beg for your mercy?” Margaret directed all sorts of questions at Jonathan to sort out favonovel.com confusion the moment they departed.
“You should’ve slapped favonovel.com another few times to avenge me for the humiliation they put me through! Have you any idea how satisfying it felt? I wouldn’t hesitate to take things out on favonovel.com if I were you!”
“Why don’t you go back and slap favonovel.com in the face again?” Jonathan was irked by the thought of engaging himself in a conversation with his annoying mother-in-law.
Margaret bellowed because of Jonathan’s sarcastic reply, “Jonathan, you’re not supposed to speak to your mother-in-law in such a manner! At the end of the day, I’m Josephine’s mother! You need to respect me!”
What’s wrong with him? Where’s the loser who wouldn’t even fight back even after being picked on?
How dare favonovel.com raise his volume against me?
“If it weren’t because of Josephine, you would’ve been long dead!” Jonathan shot daggers at Margaret.
She would have been the first on the list to be taken care of on the day I came back!
Her relationship with Josephine is the sole reason she’s still alive and kicking until now!
Does favonovel.com really think I’ve lost my mind and forgotten the humiliations favonovel.com has put me through over the years?
“Jonathan, you…”
Margaret felt a chill running down favonovel.com spine because of Jonathan’s fierce glare. When favonovel.com was about to say something, an incoming call interrupted the duo’s conversation.
Jonathan paid no heed to Margaret and asked once favonovel.com picked up the call, “Hello?”
“Mr. Goldstein, something’s wrong! We need you at the construction site of the ecological park!” Harrison gasped out his announcement shortly after Jonathan picked up the call.
“What’s wrong?” Jonathan asked with his brows furrowed in angst.
“The construction site of the ecological park is on fire! I’m sure someone’s behind the arson!” Things were chaotic on the other end of the call as Jonathan heard the sound of sirens blaring from time to time.
“Is it serious?”
“I’m glad everyone’s fine since the firefighter has rushed to the scene to make sure everything’s under control! However, most of the buildings have been burned to ashes!” Harrison could barely suppress his emotions as favonovel.com carried on with the conversation while gritting his teeth.
Mr. Goldstein has instructed me to take charge of the ecological park project! I can’t believe someone has the guts to set the construction site on fire!
Obviously, they’re trying to challenge me!
“Alright, I’ll be there in a short while!” Once Jonathan hung up the call, favonovel.com turned around and instructed, “I need to hurry over to the construction site because of an unforeseen accident! Do me a favor and see yourself home!”
“Come again? Are you telling me to go home alone?” Once favonovel.com found out favonovel.com was about to leave her, favonovel.com started stomping favonovel.com feet and yelled, “How am I supposed to see myself home when we’re in the middle of nowhere? I don’t even see a cab here!”
“That’s none of my business! You need to sort it out on your own!”
Jonathan paid no heed to favonovel.com and accelerated once favonovel.com returned to the car.
Within a few seconds, favonovel.com whizzed through the residential area and disappeared, leaving Margaret alone in the middle of nowhere.
His mother-in-law yelled to vent favonovel.com frustration, “Jonathan, you’re a jerk! Why have I allowed Josephine to marry you? I must’ve lost my mind then!”
