Accidentally Pregnant After Divorcing The Billionaire (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317

From Teresa’s angle, she couldn’t see Michael’s face. She could only see Jonathan holding him, locking eyes with her.

Just as Teresa was about to step forward, Sherry beat her to it, hurrying over to Jonathan to take Michael. But Michael clung tightly to Jonathan, refusing to let go.

Jonathan told Sherry he’d calm Michael down first, and then he walked off to the side, gently pacing as he patted Michael’s shoulder. In less than a minute, Michael was fast asleep on Jonathan’s shoulder.

With a blank expression, Jonathan walked past Teresa and carefully handed Michael over to Sherry, moving as gently as possible so he wouldn’t wake Michael.

Sherry took Michael and apologized, “Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Lynn. Michael must’ve been a handful. And thank you for signing his shirt. He was so happy,” she added smoothly.

But Jonathan’s eyes were fixed on Teresa.

Sherry was about to turn and leave when Benny’s car pulled up, blocking her way.

Benny hopped out, acting clueless. “Hey, Jonathan! What are you doing here? Wow, you and Teresa running into each other. Talk about fate!”

Teresa gave Benny a hard kick and said, disappointed, “That’s it, Benny. We’re done. From now on, we’re not even classmates, let alone friends.”

“Come on, I really didn’t tip Jonathan off. He wouldn’t let it go until I told him where you were, right, Jonathan?” Benny shot Jonathan a lock.

But Jonathan didn’t even glance at him, just kept staring at Teresa. Seeing the resistance in her eyes, he finally said, “I’m not here for you. I’m here to welcome Benny. Otherwise, why would I bother?”

Teresa just said, “Oh. I wasn’t planning to talk to you either. Go ahead and welcome Benny. My friend and I are heading back.”

Benny frowned, thinking, ‘What happened between these two? Why are they acting like this?‘ He stepped in, trying to play peacemaker. “How about! treat you both to dinner?”

Sherry quickly said, “Uh, I’ll just take Michael home. We don’t want to get in the way.”

But Benny wouldn’t let Sherry leave. “Come on, stay. Sherry, you know all the good spots in Everport. Give us some recommendations. My treat.”

Sherry glanced at Teresa, asking with her eyes what to do.

Teresa stayed calm. “No thanks, my friend has things to do, and I’m busy too.” She put her arm around Sherry. “Let’s go.”

“We’re leaving too,” Jonathan said to Benny.

Benny didn’t know what to say.

Teresa had already helped Sherry into the car and told her to drive. The more tense things got, the calmer she acted. She was used to this.

Benny still wouldn’t give up. He blocked Teresa at the passenger door. “Hey, don’t be like that. You’re already here, just stay for a meal.”

Teresa shot back, “Didn’t Jonathan invite you? You two go eat. I don’t know either of you.”

Benny sighed, “Look, I really didn’t mean to tip him off. At least give me your number, okay? I’ll call you next time and treat you myself.” Teresa didn’t want to give Benny her current number, but if she didn’t, he probably wouldn’t let her leave. She had no choice but to give it to him.

Benny still lingered, giving Sherry a meaningful look, then glancing at Michael, who was asleep in the backseat. “Wow, the kid’s dressed pretty sharp. Honestly, his outfit costs more than mine.”

Sherry panicked a little. She couldn’t possibly afford designer clothes for Michael, and instinctively looked at Teresa.

Benny had already guessed the kid’s clothes were out of Sherry’s league. Since Teresa said she bought them, he let it go. “Alright, just asking, l’Il call you

Benny said, “What’s really going on with you two? Wait, I get it now. You knew Teresa was here all along, didn’t you? She must’ve told you not to tell anyone she was in Everport, right?”
