Accidentally Pregnant After Divorcing The Billionaire (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 257

257.Chapter 257

After Jennifer left, Miriam reached out to Jonathan, trying to calm him down.

Miriam figured Teresa left because she couldn’t bear living under the same roof as Jennifer anymore. Leaving seemed like her only option.

Miriam had always thought Jennifer was too controlling. Even Michael would act. nervous and hesitant around her, like he didn’t dare speak his mind.

When Michael stayed at Miriam’s house, he once mentioned Jennifer. He waved his hand and said, “Jennifer is so serious. She never smiles.”

Then, leaning closer, he whispered, “Miriam, I’ll tell you a secret. I don’t like Jennifer. But don’t tell Mom, okay? She’ll be upset. Mom says Jennifer is family.”

This time, Teresa seemed determined to cut ties with Jennifer for good. Miriam could understand why Teresa made this choice, but it didn’t stop her heart from aching for her best friend. Teresa hadn’t even told her where she was going.

After Teresa reconnected with Jennifer, her calls to Miriam became less frequent. Miriam, busy with her own family matters, also reached out less often. But she had always assumed that having a sister would make Teresa’s life happier.

In reality, that wasn’t the case. If reconnecting with Jennifer had truly brought her joy, she wouldn’t have felt the need to stay so far away from her.

‘Teresa, come back, Miriam thought, her heart heavy with worry.

She wanted to sit down with Teresa and have a heartfelt conversation. If Teresa really couldn’t handle Jennifer, Miriam was more than willing to let her stay with her forever. Whatever it took to make Teresa happy, Miriam would support her.

Simona pressed her lips together and stared down at the photo Jonathan handed over. She retorted, “Are you really not afraid? You know, public opinion can ruin someone. And you’re a CEO.”

Jonathan’s gaze turned icy. “Your father having.an illegitimate child is far juicier gossip than anything about me.”

Simona froze, her voice rising sharply. “What are you trying to say?”

“Your dad has an illegitimate child, and everyone in the business world knows it. Yet you, his own daughter, are clueless? Honestly, you’re so incompetent. Naturally, your dad would want a backup plan.”

Simona’s face turned red with anger. “Jonathan, I’m my father’s only daughter! If you

keep spouting nonsense, I’ll sue you for defamation!”

“Go ahead,” Jonathan said coolly. “Make it public that your dad has an illegitimate child. Saves me the trouble of saying it.”

“You-” Simona took a deep breath, grabbed the photo from the table, tore it in half, and stormed out in a fury.

[You said I’m stuck in the past, that you don’t owe me anything, and you wished me happiness. Teresa, what kind of nonsense is that? None of it’s true. Come back, and I’ll tell you exactly where you’re wrong.]

“I’ll wait,” Jonathan said decisively, leaving no room for discussion.
