228 Chapter 228

228.Chapter 228

Teresa took a sip of her drink. Jonathan’s sorrowful expression was like a dagger to her heart, but she could only feign indifference to hide her feelings.

“I’ll take you both back,” Jonathan said.

Teresa shook her head. “Thanks, but no need.”

Jonathan’s tone softened. “How about we stop by the mall? Pick out whatever catifes your eye. It’s on me”

“Great. Don’t blame me if I go all out, Cheryl said with a carefree grin.

On the contrary, Teresa couldn’t bring herself to smile. ‘No, really. I’m feeling a bit tired. I just want to go home and rest, she said.

Jonathan took out a card and handed it to Cheryl. “Go buy whatever you like. I’ll take Teresa home.”

Teresa’s tone turned colder. “There’s really no need.”

“What’s wrong? You seem preoccupied. Did anything happen while I was away?” Jonathan asked.

Teresa replied, “No.”

“You’re doing this again. Did something happen to your family? Just tell me,” said Jonathan.

“No.” Teresa finally looked at him. Her eyes were filled with pain. “I’m leaving Nareigh.”

Jonathan suddenly went quiet. After a moment, he asked, “You’re leaving Nareigh? Where are you planning to go?”

Teresa answered, “I’ll go wherever I want. Just promise me you won’t come after me, okay? Let’s go our separate ways. This is how it should’ve been all along.”

After countless arguments and heartbreak, Teresa finally realized that it was time to let go. They had been divorced, so they should’ve gone their separate ways long ago.

The traffic light turned red, and Teresa noticed Jonathan’s gesture. She knew he was about to turn toward Luviston Estates.

He probably wanted to talk to her alone, but she didn’t want to. There was nothing left to say, and what scared her most was him seeing through her act.

I’m thirsty. Can you get me a bottle of potable water?” said Teresa.

Hearing this, Jonathan had no choice but to pull over to the side of the road.

As soon as he stepped into the nearby convenience store, Teresa seized the opportunity and got out of the car, hailed a taxi, and left. By the time Jonathan returned, she had already gone.

Teresa sent Jonathan a message: [Let’s end this. Delete my number. We shouldn’t keep dragging this out.]

Jonathan stared at the screen, speechless.

Teresa arrived back at Rosary Estates. She was alone tonight because Jennifer was working the night shift, and Michael was still at Miriam’s place.

Outside, the drizzle began to fall. The March rain carried a lingering chill that seeped into one’s bones.

Jonathan’s car pulled into the parking lot below her building and came to a stop.

He tried calling Teresa, but she didn’t answer. He sent her messages, but there was no reply.

“Then drape it over yourself. At least it’ll keep you a bit warmer, she snapped.

Seeing the concern in Teresa’s eyes, Jonathan couldn’t help but grip her shoulders tightly, lean dom, and kiss her th emotions completely took him over

Every day apart felt like an eternity. He missed her like crazy during the business trip

But this time, Teresa resisted fiercely. The cool sensation of his lips stirred something deep within her, yet the knew she couldn’t let herself fall again.

“Jonathan, there’s nothing left for us to talk about. Jennifer and I are leaving Nareigh, Teresa said

She added, “I’d hoped that I might be pregnant. At least then, I’d have a reason to stay tangled up with you. But react

“So there’s no reason for us to get back together. Let’s just go our separate ways and leve our lives. That’s it

Without waiting for a response, Teresa opened the car door and stepped out into the rain.

When Jonathan came back to his senses, he quickly followed her. Seeing her hair drenched by the rain, he pulled her uta the shelter, telling her not to be impulsive.

Suddenly, someone grabbed Teresa’s other arm. Jonathan’s gaze darkened as he stared at the man who had appeared out of nowhere.
