Chapter 68Chapter 68 Coaxing
It was a pretty heart-pounding night, which made Michaela angry and frustrated.
Despite her attempts to leave, she couldn’t, because Jonathan was too strong. His one-meter-and-
eighty-five-centimeter tall figure didn’t budge as he stared at her calmly. “It’s too late for me to go out
now! If you don’t want my mother to know, then you better stay quiet! It doesn’t matter to me either way,
so do as you please!”
His threatening tone made her face flush with red silently.
In the dark, she glared at him with frustration. However, she quickly realized she was still trapped in front
of the handsome man’s strong, broad chest.
While their clothes still physically separated them, she could clearly feel the warmth coming from his
body continuously. His unique scent was also flowing into her nose.
Michaela uneasily squirmed, but she was quickly stopped by Jonathan. Soon, a warning uttered by a
deep voice entered her ear. “Stop moving!”
His hot breath brushed past her ear, making it slightly itchy. Although, it felt more like a ball of flame
passing her by. It made her internal organs tremble as she froze.
At that moment, knocking sounds were heard on the door, which was then followed by Mavis’ voice.
“Mich? Are you asleep? Mich?”Jonathan might have locked the door, but Michaela was still worried about it. Her heart thumped faster
as she started having difficulty breathing.
When she thought about how Mavis was just right outside of the door while she was hugging Jonathan
so tightly, it made her feel embarrassed.
The knocking continued for a few more moments before Mavis assumed Michaela had fallen asleep and
stopped. She descended the stairs and muttered, “It’s just as he said!”
It wasn’t until the footsteps were completely gone that Jonathan stared at the woman in his embrace.
With the help of the dim light coming from outside the room, he saw how she was pouting at him in
anger.
Upon noticing his attention had shifted to her face, she glared at him and pushed him away without
hesitation. Then she walked over to the bed and sat. Creepy old man! He really will do anything,
including scaring me and embarrassing me!
Jonathan smirked silently. He knew he had gone overboard tonight, so he sat next to her and softly
comforted, “Are you angry?”
“I wouldn’t dare!” Michaela was so furious that steam was about to rise from her ears.
She had no choice but to submit to him in her current circumstances, which was something she didn’t
expect she would experience in the past.
Additionally, she really was afraid that he would do far more extreme things to her. If that happened, then
she wouldn’t be able to explain herself, no matter how hard she tried.
So, she turned her head to the other side and ignored him.Jonathan sighed and spoke in an aggrieved tone. “I didn’t know that you’re such a playgirl, Mich!
Sometimes you’re passionate, other times you’re cold. Even though you hugged me and slept with me all
night when you were drunk, you refused to admit it when you woke up! Then there’s the time during the
bar. You threw yourself at me and told me I’m your handsome boyfriend. You seemed pretty happy at
that moment, and now…”
The more he spoke, the more embarrassed and angrier Michaela got. Her ears couldn’t help but turn red
again.
Thus, instead of waiting for him to finish, she stretched her hand out and covered his mouth to stop him
from speaking any further.
However, because her movement was so sudden, both of them lost their balance and fell to the bed, with
her lying on top of him.
Her eyes widened speechlessly. Jonathan, on the other hand, put his hand on the back of his head and
teased in a deep voice, “I didn’t know you can get this passionate, Mich! It’s a blissful, eye-opening
experience for me!”
“What the hell are you saying? I didn’t do it intentionally!” Michaela was absolutely furious at just how
shameless he was.
Right as she was going to get off his body, he held her waist and switched their positions. He stared
down at her and teased further with his magnetic voice. “But I am.”
“What are you doing? Are you crazy?” She was seething with anger while gritting her teeth. That intimate
position was making her very uncomfortable.
“Shush…” He propped his body up on the bed with one hand while using the other hand to make a silent
gesture. “My parents are pretty old, so it’s pretty easy to wake them up. If you aren’t worried they’ll comeknocking on the door again, feel free to speak loudly!”
The threat was effective as she promptly shut her mouth, though her eyes still blazed with a look of
resistance.
Jonathan stopped giving her a hard time. He lay down next to her, held her hand, and put it on his chest.
Michaela could feel the muscles beneath his clothes clearly, especially his obviously powerful heartbeats
and his warm body temperature.
She moved uneasily, which only made him hold her hand tighter. His warm and magnetic voice filled the
room. “Do you feel that? It’s because of you that it’s pounding right now.”
Despite the fact the room was still dark, she could feel her cheeks turning red after listening to his
flirtation.
Jonathan had already gotten up to the side as he continued to support his head with one arm and stared
at her with affection. “You heard my mom, Mich. If I lost you, I won’t be able to explain myself! You aren’t
cruel enough to let me get reprimanded by my parents, are you?
“What I’m trying to say is that, since you don’t hate me, if you think I’m OK, how about you try to accept
me? I can give you time, and I’ll respect you as well as hide our relationship for now. I just hope you’ll
give me a chance, even if it’s out of pity. Look at me. At my age, I still haven’t had a romantic relationship
before. Maybe if we stay together, we’ll get something unexpected out of it? I’ve already told my parents
about it. If you don’t agree, then I really have no idea what to say to them! Think of this as me asking you
for a favor, okay? Promise me just this one time, all right?” His voice sounded very sweet and
persuasive.
It was as though he was advising her and begging her at the same time. It made her head spin and a
tingling sensation crawled into her body.After a while, under his watchful eyes, she nodded.
If Jonathan had done it the hard way, she would’ve just rejected it outright.
However, at that moment, his neutral tone and puppy eyes had softened her. She couldn’t bear to reject
him when he was pleading lowly.
Besides, if the man in front of her really was the living legend whom everyone admired and praised, then
it would make her feel bad for rejecting him.
It was like she was in a dream. It felt so unreal to her until she felt a warm sensation on her forehead.
It was gone in a flash, but it managed to pull her heartstring.
“Good girl!” His deep, magnetic voice rang out again. “There’s no rush, Mich. We can take it slow!”
He had waited for five long years, and he endured it. She’s lying next to me right now. I can see her and
touch her. Am I in heaven right now?
Because he was afraid of scaring her and ruining all his efforts, he had been holding himself back.
That wasn’t the case any longer as he was currently filled with confidence. We’re meant to be with each
other. It took us five years to establish and strengthen our bond. There’s no way anyone can separate us
ever again.
Upon achieving his goal, Jonathan reminded her to sleep early and left satisfactorily.
It wasn’t until she heard the sound of the door closing that Michaela snapped back to her senses and
abruptly sat up.
Her heart was still pounding with anxiety, and her mind was still in a daze. She wanted to take a shower
in the bathroom but had to turn back when she realized she didn’t bring her pajamas with her.It was beyond Michaela’s wildest dream that she would one day become her ex-fiancé’s Aunt!
The truth was so wild that it was mortifying!
