At this moment, a subtle change occurred in Jonas's heart. He stood up and returned to June's side.
"If you're bored, let's go for a walk. There's a river next here and a corridor near the river." Jonas also didn't want to stay here but he wanted to eat his niece's birthday cake, so he wanted to go out for a walk before coming back.
"Alright." June nodded. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a smile. Jonas walked forward and June was a step behind him. She could finally openly look at his back.
Jonas led her to walk along a familiar path. There were street lights all over the place. The place was not bright enough but was warm. Getting away from the noises, the surroundings all became quiet.
The wind blew gently. June was wearing a formal dress. When she gently tugged the corner of her dress, her long hair gently fluttered in the direction of the wind and slide past her collarbone. She felt a little itchy, just like her heart.
Jonas stood on the corridor and looked back at her. He found that she was looking at everything curiously.
In this city, there were many wealthy and influential people but June knew very few of them. When she stood here to look at the lights on the other side of the river, she felt a little sad. The wealthy people lived like heaven and people like her who were struggling below the poverty line did not even know if they would have dinner the day after.
Jonas stretched out his hand and held her shoulder, "Are you cold?"
June shook her head and replied, "I am not cold. The night here is really beautiful."
Jonas still took off his suit coat to cover her shoulders. June's heart panicked. She hurriedly wanted to return the coat to him but Jonas had already turned around and walked forward.
June's breathing became rapid. Jonas seemed to be cold but in fact, he was even able to discover even the smallest details. He was like rain that nourished everything. His care was slight but considerate.
June quickly followed him. Just as they were walking along the river corridor, on the balcony of the second floor of the villa, Skylar almost crushed the red wine cup in her hand. She saw Jonas use his coat to cover June. That intense jealousy was like a ball of fire, burning in her heart.
"Jonas, you owe me." Tears streamed down Skylar's eyes. Her life seemed to be happy until now. But actually, she regretted, suffered, and was disappointed every night. Even if Justin loved her so much that he was willing to give her his company to her, her heart was still empty. When she heard that her two children could only call Jonas Uncle, she felt even more uncomfortable. She wished that the children were his and could call him daddy.
Skylar closed her eyes and endured all the pain. Her numb heart felt pain because of June's appearance.
"Skylar, I've been looking for you everywhere. Why are you standing here alone?" Justin smiled happily when he saw his beautiful wife.
"Justin, look, the scenery at night is really beautiful. Why haven't I noticed it before?" Skylar leaned charmingly against Justin's shoulder. Justin was getting old and his body was getting worse every day. However, she was still young. She could only rely on her fantasy of Jonas to support her get through the lonely nights. Although Justin was not bad, he was still old. Skylar did not dare to betray him at this time. She could only endure her desire in pain.
Justin looked at his wife's charming face. He began to lament the ruthlessness of time. He knew that the young Skylar had suffered grievances to be with him, so he tried his best to compensate her and give her everything he had.
"Skylar, if I leave one day, take good care of Christine for me. I will give you everything I have." Justin hugged his wife and said affectionately.
"Justin, what are you talking about? Don't say that. I'm afraid. I don't want you to leave me." Skylar's eyes immediately reddened and she said a little angrily.
