Chapter 53 Caring

Jonathan’s laughter was soft and magnetic. There was a bit of a tremble at the end of his beautiful coda. It was so pleasing to the ear that it would make anyone feel moved.

Throwing myself at him? When Michaela returned to her senses and lifted her head, her eyes met with his. They were dark and seductive. When she processed what he said, she felt like she was running out of breath in an instant as her cheeks felt as if they were burning up.

Red began appearing from the back of her ears toward her delicate face.

Jonathan, who saw all that, sexily swallowed and uttered in a hoarse voice, “Don’t want to let go, eh?”

It was then Michaela noticed her arms were still wrapped around his neck. She quickly moved her arms away and wanted to stand up. Suddenly, her legs gave in, and she almost fell again.

Once again, he caught her in time and steadied her body.

His heated, somewhat coarse fingers touched her slender arms and rubbed on them silently. It made her body freeze stiffly.

The more nervous she was, the more things went wrong. Yet, Jonathan still refused to let her go and teased her, “What are you panicking about? I’m not making you take responsibility.”

His deep, magnetic voice made Michaela almost cry. Who’s taking responsibility for who? Why is he talking like I’m taking advantage of him? This man, even though he looks serious, he’s actually a shameless scoundrel who keeps pushing my limits. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t know he was actually holding himself back. On one hand, he really wanted to pull her closer, much closer.

On the other hand, he was afraid he was going to scare her and make her actually run away.

At the moment, Michaela was like a frightened rabbit as she froze at her spot. Her watery, clear eyes were slightly red with anxiety.

In the end, he sighed resignedly and went to the couch before patting the spot next to him. “Sit down. There’s something I want to ask you.”

“N-No need! I can hear you perfectly from here!” There was no way she was going to send herself into the lion’s den just as soon as she escaped it.

She shook her head subconsciously, showing that she really wanted to maintain her distance away from him.

“Do you want me to hug you like I just did and talk to you like that?” The edge of Jonathan’s eyes lifted upward slightly.

There were sparkles in his seductive eyes, yet the look he was giving her undoubtedly carried a touch of threat.

Michaela could feel her heart thumping like a jackhammer, especially when she recalled how he acted when he was standing up. She waved her hand and sat next to him in a flash before squeezing out a flattering smile. “No need, it’s fine. You don’t have to do that.”

As she spoke, the image of him holding herself in his lap barged into her mind uncontrollably, which sent a shiver down her spine. If this continues any longer, my heart’s going to jump out! God, just let me get this over with already!

Seeing her sitting next to him obediently, Jonathan’s lips curved upward as he stared at her. “Do you dislike me that much, Mich?”

Even though it was a simple question, she felt like he sounded weirdly aggrieved and sultry, for some reason. It was like… a child who couldn’t get the candy they wanted. Jonathan? A child? I must be losing my mind. Why do I have such weird thoughts?

“N-No!” Michaela refuted. “You treat me well, Mr. Jonathan. I know that. I haven’t even gotten the chance to thank you properly. Why would I hate you?”

She sounded very sincere, without a tinge of forcefulness in her voice, because she really meant what she said.

Jonathan did treat her well, despite his occasionally odd behaviors. Those behaviors didn’t make her hate him. It just made her feel somewhat embarrassed.

Upon receiving a satisfying answer, Jonathan’s worries vanished. He pursed his lip and asked again, “Then why do you want to move out of Shappiray Mansion?”

After Hannah returned, their lives would go back to normal.

He was already upset that the time they could spend with each other was short because he really wanted to spend all day, every day with her. Yet, she wanted to escape from him. It made him desperate for an answer.

He didn’t want his efforts to go to waste and only get her disdain in return.

She hesitated for a while before she answered his question under his scorching gaze. “Because I don’t want to give you any trouble and cause any unnecessary misunderstandings, Mr. Jonathan. Besides, you probably want to live with your girlfriend there, and I don’t think it’s nice if I stay there…” The more she spoke, the smaller her voice became.

“What are you saying? Speak louder!” He leaned closer to her and intentionally requested in a deep voice.

Michaela fiddled with her fingers. She was so nervous that she didn’t know what to say.

“Why did you stop talking?” Jonathan narrowed his eyes at her, who appeared like a deer caught in the headlight.

Both of them were really close to each other at that moment. Their eyes met as they listened to each other’s breathing. It caused the atmosphere to become more sensual.

As if she was hit by something, she was utterly stunned. Suddenly, she forgot to dodge and stared straight at him.

Her shy appearance looked really cute.

To him, she was like an irresistible toxin.

Jonathan kept telling himself to give her more time. However, the more he interacted with her, the more he lost control of himself and wanted more.

He kept narrowing his eyes as he pulled himself away from her and nestled his body on the couch. One of his arms was even placed on the spot behind her. He looked casual, yet seductive.

In fact, he stopped giving Michaela a hard time and asked in a low voice, “Okay, let me ask you this. Who told you I have a girlfriend?”

He’s definitely doing it on purpose! He pretends like he didn’t hear what I said to tease me! I really don’t like how I’m always in a disadvantageous position. She suppressed the anger within her heart and pressed her fingers against each other. “Vincent told me…”

“Do you really believe every word that comes out of his mouth?” Jonathan knew Vincent was up to good when he saw Vincent’s mischievous look in the restaurant.

However, he didn’t expect it to be that. I’m going to get back at him for this.

Michaela raised her eyebrow, speechless. Is he angry? He really does have an awful, volatile temperament. If a woman can fall in love with him, then it means she really, really loves him.

Seeing that she was still keeping her silence, Jonathan softened his tone and asked in a gentle, magnetic voice, “Don’t listen to what other people tell you blindly, Mich. You have to use your heart to feel if someone’s telling the truth and believe in your instincts. Get it? Besides, Louise and I aren’t like what you imagined.”

What I imagined? How does he know? She pouted.

“Sure, my family and her family are close, and our parents were interested in pairing us up together. However, I feel nothing toward Louise, which was something I told her about before already. Vincent is just running his mouth. He doesn’t know anything!”

Is he explaining himself to me? Why? What does this have to do with me? Michaela was confused.

“Additionally, you never bring me any trouble. I protect you because I care about you. So please, don’t say you want to move out, okay?” His deep voice revealed a bit of coaxing.

If I hadn’t appeared earlier, she would’ve ruined my image in her mother’s mind. I wouldn’t be able to clear my name if that had happened. It’s already difficult courting her, so if her mother gets in my way too, I may as well just jump off a building. He smiled somewhat forcefully.
