Accidentally Pregnant After Divorcing The Billionaire (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 251

251.Chapter 251

Teresa smiled softly and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. “Thanks for always saying such sweet things about me. But you know what? You’re the real star here. You’re so handsome. You’re the most charming muffin in the whole universe!”

Michael quickly grabbed a small mirror from the drawer and checked himself out. “Really? Am I that cool?”

Seeing his attention shift, Teresa ruffled his hair and said with a grin, “Of course! You’ve got my amazing genes, so don’t you dare doubt yourself. You’re the coolest and the most handsome kid ever.”

Michael, now comforted, wrapped his arms around her waist. “You’re not lying to me, right? You really don’t think I’m embarrassing?”

Teresa lowered her head, kissed his forehead, and shook her head. “I took you away because I’m under a curse. If I tell anyone you’re my son, the curse will make us part ways. That’s why I keep it a secret.”

Michael looked up at her with wide, innocent eyes. “Mom, so as long as you don’t say I’m your son, we’ll never be apart, right?”

“That’s right. We’ll always, always be together, just like now. I’ll love you and protect you forever, my sweet boy.”

Snuggled in Teresa’s arms, Michael quickly drifted into a peaceful sleep.

Teresa carefully worked on piecing Jonathan’s autograph back together.

After more than an hour, she finally finished. Even though the pieces were glued back together, the torn words could never be the same. Her fingers gently traced over Jonathan’s name, as if trying to hold onto something that was already lost. She flipped to the previous page and found another autograph from Jonathan.

Seeing the word “Handsome,” Teresa couldn’t help but smile. She remembered how casually Jonathan had added the word when she asked for his autograph. Back then, before reconnecting with Jennifer and moving in with Evelyn, it was just her and Michael.

Life was simple, but it was happy. She longed to return to that happiness, a thought that had been lingering in her mind for days.

The next morning, Teresa woke up to find Evelyn had already prepared breakfast. Keeping her tone calm, Teresa told Evelyn she was heading to buy groceries. She asked Evelyn to wake Michael up later and help look after him.

“Are you still upset about the notebook from yesterday? Do you really have to talk to me like this?” Evelyn asked.

“I’ll check if there are any nice notebooks and buy a few more,” Teresa replied before heading out.

Before leaving, she placed the repaired autograph book on Michael’s bedside table, hoping that when he woke up, he’d see it and feel a little happier.

Teresa loaded up groceries at the supermarket. She bought Michael’s favorite beef, Evelyn’s caviar, and diapers for Isabel. Most of it was for her family. She barely bought anything for herself.

“If I spend more on myself, there’ll be less for you. I’ve gotten used to putting you first.”

Jonathan’s words echoed in her mind, bringing back memories of him wrapping an arm around her, the two of them laughing as they shopped together, pushing a cart filled with groceries.

Even his voice sounded hesitant. Teresa set down the shopping bags and gently ruffled his hair, sensing the fear lingering in him. She took a deep breath and asked, “What happened?” But Mike just shook his head, refusing to speak. Teresa shot Evelyn a cold look.

This time, Teresa was serious. There was no hesitation, no second–guessing, and certainly no concern for Evelyn’s feelings. She was done. She had already started packing their belongings at lightning speed.
