Chapter 870
Jonathan said calmly, “Okay.” Then, his gaze shifted to the ten men.
The ten men had already learned about Rosalie’s identity from Ethan. At this moment, hearing Rosalie call Jonathan “Jon,” they could guess his identity immediately.
“It’s Mr. Youngblood! He rarely appears in the media in Strico. Besides, it’s difficult to find photos of him online,” they exclaimed inwardly.
However, at this moment, they didn’t expect to meet him in person in such a place.
“So this is where you’re drinking with them?” Jonathan asked with a hint of jealousy in his voice. Although the ten men dressed and looked different, their appearances were rather fine, the kinds that women liked.
Rosalie’s body trembled as she could sense his jealousy. She quickly said, “I–I’m just accompanying Lillian to clear her head, and I didn’t drink much either.” She drank a few shots at most, unlike Lillian, who drank a lot.
“Really?” Jonathan’s gaze swept across the ten men’s faces. “What do you think about their looks?”
Immediately, the ten men felt a chill running down their spines. Usually, when the customers said they looked good, it was a compliment, and they were happy to accept it.
However, at this moment, they only wanted Rosalie to find them ugly, and the
, the better. They would have to worry about keeping their faces if she complimented their good looks.

“No, no. We’re average–looking.”
“Yes. He’s right. We look way too ordinary and are definitely not good–looking!” “W–We were just drinking with Mrs. Youngblood’s friend, not with her!”
They were stammering and extremely cautious, which baffled Rosalie.
However, Jonathan was still waiting for Rosalie’s answer seriously. He seemed like if she didn’t give him a satisfactory answer, he would stay there with her until she did.
Rosalie was a little embarrassed and said to Jonathan before the group of men,. They’re not as good–looking as you. How could I catch feelings?” Of course, it was the truth. After all, only a few men could outmatch Jonathan’s looks
Oliviously, Jonathan was quite satisfied with the answer. “From now on, even if

a few years ago due to gatherings with her colleagues or work reasons.
“Let’s go. I’ll take Lillian home first,” Jonathan said.
Rosalie wanted to pull Lillian up, who was sitting on the couch. The latter shouted drunkenly. “I’m not leaving. I haven’t drunk enough. Rosalie, although these men are not as good–looking as your husband, their looks are not too bad. I–I don’t believe I can’t forget about Callum!”
“That’s enough. Lillian, we’re going home. If you want to drink, I’ll accompany you next time,” Rosalie said and saw Jonathan’s face darkened at the side.
Rosalie chuckled awkwardly.
Jonathan pursed his thin lips, feeling helpless. He knew how important Lillian was in Rosalie’s heart.
She could even give up on her life for Lillian.
Because of that, even if he was jealous of Lillian, he could only tolerate it.
“No need for that. I–I can go back by myself. Y–You don’t have to send me home. I don’t want to be a third–wheeler!” Lillian muttered.
“You’re so drunk now. How can you go home by yourself?” Rosalie asked.
“Don’t worry. I–I’ll ask my friend to pick me up. Jerick,” Lillian stuttered while taking out her phone and began to dial the number.
After the phone rang for a few seconds, the call was connected. Rosalie was about to explain the situation to Jerick, but was stunned by the voice coming from the other end of the phone.
“Lillian? Lillian, is that you?”
“Is that Callum’s voice?” Rosalie wondered.
Rosalie was dumbfounded and exclaimed inwardly, “Lillian called Callum?”
“I–I’m not looking for Callum. I’m looking for Jerick. Jerick. Please pass the phone to him, Lillian muttered.
“Jerick?” It sounded as if the word was squeezed out through gritted teeth. “Lillian, are you drunk?”
“Y–Yes. I drank a lot, and many men are here with me. Callum, I don’t need you at
Rosalie quickly took the phone from Lillian and said to Callum, ‘Callum, I’m Rosalie. Lillian drank a little and dialed the wrong number. I’ll take her home later.
“Where are you now?” Callum’s voice was extremely cold.
Before Rosalie could say anything, Lillian muttered, “A–At Starlight Nightclub, Heches. The handsome guys here are so popular, 1 spent a lot of money today..
l come over right now! After saying that, Callum ended the call.
