"Before I married you, I didn't know what kind of person you were. I didn't even know your appearance. My father asked me to come over. If you said that I took a fancy to your money, I know that you are very rich for sure, but your money is your money. I can't guarantee whether you will spend it on me or not," June felt a little wronged. In this marriage, she was the passive one. Except for her falling in love with him, everything was arranged.
Jonas turned his head and looked at her carefully through the light of the street lamp outside the window.
There were still tears in her eyes, and her eyes were watery and shining. However, the sincerity on her face was undisguised. The woman trusted him wholeheartedly.
"That's right. I forced you to marry me. It wasn't by your own will," Jonas laughed at himself. This reality could never be changed.
"What's the difference? Anyway, I've already married you," June gave a wry smile.
"Of course there is. Heston didn't force you. You really liked him. If I was forcing you all this while, could you also really like me?" Jonas always felt that he was no different from a b*stard. He forced her to marry him and wanted to have her real love. He was too greedy.
June didn't know how to react after hearing that. It seemed that he was still jealous.
June, who had never dared to take the initiative, at this moment, somehow had the courage. She directly leaned over and kissed the man's handsome face. Then, she smiled and said, "There isn’t only one type of love. Love after marriage is also possible."
Jonas was somewhat stunned. He still could feel the warmth from her lips on his face.
June looked at him with shining eyes, "I'm really sorry. I don't know how Heston found that place. Don't take what he said to heart. He's just angry from embarrassment. I didn't agree to reconcile with him. He just said those nasty words to provoke me."
"I know," Jonas' mood had actually improved in an instant because of her initiative kiss.
"In the future, I won't let him hurt you. I'll stay away from him and never see him again," June raised her hand and swore.
Jonas grabbed her hand and clenched it tightly. He finally smiled, "Don't always swear. I believe in you. Thank you for standing up today to protect my reputation."
June was stunned. The next second, she blushed.
Earlier, in front of everyone, she had ignored her image and scolded Heston. When she thought about it at this moment, it should be considered a bold thing.
"I didn't think much. I just don't want him to accuse you."
Jonas pursed his thin lips into a smile, "What if he didn't say anything wrong? I did fall for your beauty."
June trembled slightly, "That means I'm lucky to be chosen by you. There are many girls who are younger and more beautiful than me."
"Don't belittle yourself. I'm just joking," Jonas didn't like to see her self-deprecating. It made his heart ache.
June leaned into his arms and closed her eyes. It was a very exciting night, but she also gained a lot. She hoped that she could communicate well with Jonas in the future. She hoped that they would not misunderstand or harm each other.
After Heston left the banquet, he smoked on the street. He felt very different. He had some resentment against the world.
He knew that he was no match for the rich and powerful man. If June did not choose him, it could only mean that she had really changed, becoming snobbish and greedy.
