Accidentally Pregnant After Divorcing The Billionaire (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 261

261.Chapter 261

Miriam and Teresa were inseparable best friends, and they had matching ringtones. It was an unknown number. She rarely answered calls from unknown numbers, but after the argument with Jennifer, she took the call.

Teresa’s sound sent a shockwave through Miriam. She froze for a moment, her mind. struggling to catch up. Then, unable to hold back, she let out a piercing scream. Teresa?”

Jonathan, who had been about to step out and shut the door behind him, stopped dead in his tracks at the mention of Teresa’s name. His expression hardened instantly, and he turned back, his sharp gaze locking onto Miriam like a hawk.

“Teresa! Finally! Do you know how worried I’ve been? Where have you been all this time? Why didn’t you tell me anything?”

“Sorry, Miriam. I changed my number in a fit of anger. But I’m doing fine now, really.”

“Really?” Miriam pressed, her voice full of concern. “Are you sure you’re doing okay? You left Fernlandia, didn’t you? You’re not in Nareigh, and you’re not in Lonisburg either. So where are you?

“Jonathan went to Lonisburg to look for you, but he said you weren’t-” Miriam froze, her hand flying to her mouth. Seeing Teresa fall silent, she panicked, thinking she might have upset her.

Miriam quickly added, “I didn’t tell Jonathan about your place in Lonisburg. It was Jennifer who mentioned it. She knows you have a house there too.”

Jonathan shot Miriam a meaningful glance, nodding slightly toward the phone, clearly signaling he wanted to speak to Teresa.

But the moment Jennifer came to mind, Miriam’s face darkened, her frustration bubbling to the surface again. She turned her head away, dodging Jonathan’s hand, and clutched her phone tightly.

“Teresa, be honest with me. Is Jennifer giving you a hard time? Tell me, okay? Don’t keep it to yourself. If she’s bothering you, I’ll give her a piece of my mind.”

“No, there’s nothing going on between her and me.”

“But she-

Miriam hadn’t even finished speaking when Jennifer, unable to hold back any longer, snatched the phone from her and rushed into the bathroom, shutting the door behind her. “Teresa, it’s me.”

Teresa remained silent.

“I know I made mistakes before. I forced you to have an abortion and used it to threaten you into coming back. Did I scare you?

A sudden knock on the door startled her. Jennifer composed herself and said, “Miriam and I are at Jonathan’s company right now. We came to see if he’d heard from you. That’s why we’re here.”

Teresa didn’t respond to that.

A soft breeze stirred the wind chimes hanging outside a small shop in the distance. Teresa, wearing a black baseball cap, had her thick hair loose over her shoulders. Her gaze carried a mix of emotions as she lowered her head, gripping the phone tightly.

“Jennifer, give the phone to Jonathan. I need to talk to him,” she said firmly.

Jennifer turned and walked out, handing the phone to Jonathan, who had been waiting anxiously.

Jonathan took the phone and strode out of the office. He paused to steady himself before speaking into the receiver, his deep, magnetic voice carrying through, “Hello.”
