The Ex-Wife's Secret (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 722

Chapter 722

Jonathan nodded. “While I’m taking care of you, I’ll make sure Mike doesn’t feel left out or neglected.”

“Alright, then that’s settled,” Teresa said, feeling exhausted. There was absolutely no way she was moving in with Jonathan. If free ever saw Termsa living there, she definitely would think Teresa got pregnant on purpose just to trap Jonathan.

No matter what, this was Teresa’s house, and it was Jonathan who insisted on moving in. Even if Irene showed up, it would be Jonathan who was clinging to Teresa, not the other way around. Irene couldn’t blame Teresa for it.

Jonathan said, “I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning, and we’ll take Mike back to the Lynn residence. We need to let my family know about him.”

Teresa was taken aback. “Why do I have to go?”

“Grandpa called me several times today, insisting that I bring you and Mike back. Sooner or later, we have to face the family. We can keep the second baby under wraps for now, but we need to come clean about Mike first,” Jonathan explained.

Teresa hesitated, “I have to pick up Miriam from the airport tomorrow. She and Edward are flying back from Gorthany.”

“What time is their flight?” Jonathan asked.

“It’s in the afternoon. I can’t remember the exact time,” Teresa replied.

“No problem. We’ll take Mike to see the family in the morning, and in the afternoon, I’ll drive you to the airport,” Jonathan said.

As Teresa watched Jonathan’s car disappear down the road, her anxiety about tomorrow started to build. There was no dodging this. Sooner or later, she’d have to face it. Better to rip off the band–aid now and finally let Jonathan’s family know about Michael.

She was Michael’s mother. If she didn’t go, Hayden would be disappointed. Irene might say to Michael behind her back, maybe even trying to turn him against her. But if she did go, Irene would definitely shoot her some dirty looks.

After thinking it over, Teresa decided she had to go. She’d rather deal with frente’s eye rolls than let her son go to his dad’s place alone and face his fierce grandma by himself.

The next morning, Teresa woke up early. Just as she was about to start making breakfast, Jonathan showed up, his luggage already in tow. He even brought breakfast for her.

“Don’t let anyone know you’re staying here,” Teresa said.

“Can you stop pushing me?” Jonathan’s voice was icy. “You won’t let me say a word about anything. If you keep this up, I might just tie you up and haul you back to my place right now.”

Teresa shot him a glare. “If you try to force me, I’ll take the kids and disappear. You’ll never see us again.”

Jonathan just laughed instead of getting angry, “As long as we have kids–two of them now–we’re tied together for life. You could run to the ends of the earth and you still wouldn’t be able to shake me off.”

Teresa was at a loss for words. She decided it wasn’t worth arguing with him anymore, so she got Michael up for breakfast, and then did her makeup. Teresa was a bundle of nerves on the way. She’d picked out a loose coat on purpose, and with it being fall, she was in long sleeves anyway.

She’d already come up with an excuse. If anyone noticed, she’d just blame it on a little weight gain. No way was she going to let herself get embarrassed today, or give Irene any more reasons to look down on her.

“Mom, your hands are all sweaty,” Michael said, holding onto Teresa’s hand as they got out of the car, looking up at her in confusion.
