Honey, You're a Billionaire by Chandler Solar

Billionire 208 Chapter 208 It Was an Engagement Ring Rose said the word hubby in the most coquettish voice she could muster.

As soon as it cout of her mouth, she sensed the way Jonathan stiffened ever so slightly. She caught Zac's dumbfounded stare as well. Rose's regret sank in almost instantaneously.

Still, she had already said it, and she had already brought the fork up to Jonathan's mouth. There was no use regretting her actions now.

Thus, she steeled herself and smiled sweetly. She looked at Jonathan with a gentle, expectant gaze. It was as if she would make him pay if he did not help her win this battle by going along with it. Briefly thunderstruck, Jonathan swiftly knew what Rose was trying to do. He was pleased to find that Rose was feeling jealous because of him. It was an excellent turn of events! Jonathan opened wide and ate the bite of steak Rose held out to him. He thoroughly enjoyed being fed by her. "Does it taste good?" Rose was also satisfied.

As he had chosen to play along and save her from any possible humiliation, she cut another piece of steak and fed him again.

"It tast tastes great. Everything tastes great if you're the one feeding me." Jonathan was grinning.

Witnessing this scene made Zac's eyes bulge in shock. Right now, Jonathan looked nothing like the domineering Jonathan Finch who struck fear into the hearts of all who mentioned him. Zac wanted to say a few words to ingratiate himself with Rose, but he spotted Anastasia's clenched hands beneath the table.

This was a minefield. It was better for him to eat in silence and stay out of it.

"Rosie, I didn't expect you and J to be acquainted. Did you know that J used to-" Anastasia had abruptly spoken up to disrupt Rose and Jonathan's sweet moment. But before she could finish her sentence, Jonathan cut her off.

"Anastasia!" Jonathan's tone was threatening. If Rose were to find out about his identity, he was going to be the one who told her. He was not going to let her discover the truth from anyone else The menacing look in Jonathan's eyes made it clear to Anastasia that if she continued talking, he was going to be pissed. Too scared to continue speaking, she drank from her wine glass instead. Still, what she had said was enough to make Rose feel uncomfortable. At last, the meal cto an end.

Once Anastasia and Zac left, Rose dropped the sweet and coy demeanor she had taken with Jonathan. earlier. As soon as she got into the car, her expression darkened.

Jonathan knew she was reacting out of jealousy. That meant she cared about him.

When they got back to Zenwood Gardens, Rose ignored Jonathan. She changed into her indoor slippers and was about to head back to her room.

+15 BONUS But, before she could even take a step forward, a pair of arms hugged her from behind. Rose was vexed. She tried to struggle, but the arms only tightened further. Rose was speechless. What was the meaning of this? "Let go!" she ordered icily.

"I refuse." There was a hint of playfulness in his voice. He even nuzzled his face against Rose's head. Even though Rose continued to try and get away from him, he did not let go.

They were still at a stalemate when all of a sudden, Jonathan let out a muffled groan. Rose immediately realized she had hit his injury.

"Lettake a look at your wound She was frowning. Jonathan finally released Rose and turned on the lights. When he saw her staring at his shoulder blade, he allowed his face to contort even more in pain. Rose took off his jacket and undid his shirt buttons. Focused on checking his injury, she did not notice the way his eyes started to glaze over.

Didn't she know how bewitching it was when a woman undressed a man? Jonathan's heart was pounding. On the other hand, Rose beceven more focused.

Despite knowing that he was injured, she never took a proper look at his injury. She did not even know how serious it was.

Therefore, when she saw the blood-stained bandage, her heart felt like it had been squeezed.

"How did you get injured?" Rose touched the edge of the bandage. After figuring out how long it had been, Rose beceven more sympathetic.

For the last few days, he had been by her side at all times. Even though they did not interact much, he made it clear to her that he was at hwaiting for her.

She had to admit that she felt a sense of security throughout this time.

Jonathan did not want Rose to know about how dangerous it had been the other day, so he simply brushed it off by saying, "I fell by accident Was it just a fall? Rose did not believe him, but since it was all bandaged up, she could not tell what kind of injury it was either. Since she knew he was hiding something, she did not try to dig it out of him. As she stared at the bandage, she found herself agreeing with what Anastasia said earlier.

"This is a serious injury. You should be resting in the hospital." Jonathan should not be running around outside.

"It's so boring to stay at the hospital. Plus...

He felt a lot more comfortable being by her side.

Noticing the worried frown on Rose's face, Jonathan Immediately assured her, Ive been going to the hospital to get my wound checked. It's just a light injury. It's not a big deal." +15 BONUS "You call this a light injury? How much worse does it have to be before you consider it a serious one?" Rose huffed.

Jonathan had a faraway look in his eyes. It was as if he had recalled something from the past.

"Only psychological torment counts as a serious injury.." Rose stiffened. For a second, it seemed to her that he had gone through what he called psychological torment. She opened her mouth to speak, but he abruptly reached out and hugged her.

Unlike his earlier back hug that conveyed a sense of stubbornness, this hug made g made her feel like she had been pulled into a different world. Jonathan wanted to hold Rose as close to his heart as possible. "Rose ....

After a while, Jonathan called out her name.

"Yeah?" Rose thought he wanted to say something, but he simply kept repeating her name.

At long last, he said, "That ring the other day... I was proposing with it..." Rose was speechless. She recalled the sunrise that day. A proposal...

Rose's mind was buzzing. Before she could react, Jonathan continued, "Since you accepted the engagement ring, you're not allowed to return it to me. Also, I want to void the agreement." A contracted marriage? They were legally married. Even if Rose found one billion to give to him someday, he was not going to accept it. What he wanted was her

Rose felt a little dizzy. What on earth was Jonathan saying? What was this about an engagement ring that she was not hemowed to return? What did wanting to void the agreement? Was he having a fever? Rose grabbed Jonathan's hand. It was unusually warm. She felt his forehead and immediately jumped in panic. "You have a fever!" His forehead was scorching hot. Jonathan clutched Rose's hand and stared at her with hopeful eyes.

"Promiseyou won't leave me..."

Rose did not know what to say. She was certain his fever was making him delirious. It would be a waste for such a handsman to sustain skind of brain damage from a fever. Rose took Jonathan by the wrist while saying, "Come. I'm taking you to the hospital." "I... don't want to go!"
