His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 236

Marina opened the jewelry box with a flourish, her eyes sparkling as she presented it to Jonathan.

Inside was a ring.

The main stone was her favorite—a blush-pink diamond.

It had been cut into a delicate heart shape and nestled among a cluster of smaller diamonds on the band.

The ring’s band was crafted in the shape of a four-leaf clover: three of the petals were set with colorless, heart-shaped diamonds, but the fourth and most striking petal was adorned with that flawless, heart-shaped pink diamond.

This was the design Marina had poured her heart and soul into.

She knew Jonathan admired her talent, and she prided herself on her skill and creativity.

Even relying on pure ability, she was confident she could hold her own against Niamh.

She’d thought that once Michael returned to the country, Jonathan would get jealous and come running to her, unwilling to let her out of his sight—just like he had back in high school.

But she’d waited days, and Jonathan hadn’t so much as messaged her.

Marina was at a loss.

After all, she now had Michael openly pursuing her, and with Jonathan about to divorce Niamh—this time, there was no way he’d give Niamh shares of The Thomas Group in the settlement.

Everything should have been unfolding exactly as she’d hoped, but lately Jonathan seemed distant, almost cold.

Marina couldn’t figure out if it was because she’d gone behind his back to attend that reunion—a reunion that just so happened to be Michael’s welcome party—or if there was some other reason.

Coincidentally, today she’d just finished the showpiece of her “First Love” collection, so she used it as an excuse to seek Jonathan out.

Partly, she wanted to gauge his mood.
