Chapter 342
Teresa was never the type to just bear with people who bullied her. She replied calmly, “Whatever. If you ruin the door, you’ll have to pay for it.”
Then she hung up.
She told herself she wasn’t going to go downstairs just because he was drunk.
But even as she said it, she couldn’t help sneaking a look from the balcony. Sure enough, she saw that familiar and drunken figure. Michael’s bedroom door was still open. He was fast asleep. She didn’t know what would happen if Jonathan came upstairs.
With how sensitive Michael was, he’d definitely wake up from the smell of Jonathan.
Teresa really didn’t want Jonathan to come upstairs and wake up Michael at a time like this.
She headed down and grabbed his arm as he was about to get into the elevator. “What are you doing this time?”
Jonathan stopped. He stared at Teresa for a long time before finally saying, “I’ve taken care of everything for you.”
Teresa asked, confused, “What do you mean?”
Jonathan said, “You said there were three things you couldn’t stand. First, you didn’t want your sister controlling you–done. She won’t live with you. Second, you didn’t want my mom pestering you. She promised me she wouldn’t call you again. Last, you didn’t want to be tangled up with me.”
Jonathan’s voice faltered a little when he got to that last part.
He said, “I’ve wrapped up all my work in Nareigh. At most, I’ll go back two or three times a year, maybe not at all.”
Teresa finally understood it. She frowned, “That’s not necessary. You don’t have to keep…”
Before she could finish, Jonathan cut her off. “Just answer me: do you prefer Nareigh or here? Be honest with me.”
Even though he was seriously drunk, there was still a trace of sensibility in those dark eyes of his.
Teresa answered truthfully, “Nareigh.”
Nareigh was where she was born and raised, where all her closest friends were. Of course, she felt at home there.
Teresa hurried after him and blocked his way. “You drove here, didn’t you? Are you planning to drive back like this?”
Before Jonathan could get a cab, Teresa’s car was already right in front of him.
Jonathan said, “Why? Successful businessmen aren’t allowed to drink?”
Teresa said, “Do you not know your limits? What if you run into some robber? They’d tie you up, rob you, strip you naked, and dump you on the road. That’d be a real laughingstock.”
