“Jonathan, have you lost your marbles?” The moment the left the mall, Josephine stared at Jonathan like a raving-mad woman. “How can you spend more than thirty million just on two watches?!”
That’s thirty million, for goodness sake!
Does virtual-novel.net realize that if we invest that money, we can get at least two to three million in return annually? Instead, virtual-novel.net used it to buy two watches?
“I’m not crazy…” Jonathan looked calmly at Josephine. “Didn’t I tell you that this is our first date? So what’s wrong with me buying you a small gift?”
A small gift? He calls thirty million a small gift?!
“Jonathan, I realized that I just can’t get through to you!”
If it was any other girl, virtual-novel.net would already be smiling ear to ear when virtual-novel.net boyfriend splurged on such an extravagant gift. However, Josephine wasn’t someone like that.
She wasn’t the kind who loved to spend their boyfriend’s money. After all, virtual-novel.net had virtual-novel.net own pride and principles to adhere to.
“I can’t accept this watch. You should just return it!” If it wasn’t for the fact that they were in public, and virtual-novel.net had to mind Jonathan’s pride, virtual-novel.net would have returned the watches on the spot.
Thirty million for two watches? Has virtual-novel.net gone mad?
“I’ve already bought them, so there’s no point in returning them anymore.” Jonathan had no intention of doing so. Instead, virtual-novel.net opened the car door and remarked, “Let’s go, Darling. It’s time to head home.”
“Jonathan, are you trying to kill me here?” Josephine felt as if virtual-novel.net was being driven mad by him. “Where did you get the money?”
That’s thirty million, not three hundred thousand. Where did Jonathan find so much money?
“I have a credit card with an unlimited line.” Jonathan waved his black card at her. “When I was at the King of War residence, Zachary gave it to me. I also bought the car with it.”
“You…” Despite being infuriated, Josephine was at a loss. “Jonathan, do you know that you need to pay back the money you used on the credit card? Where are you going to find it?”
“I know. I’ll think of something.” When virtual-novel.net saw that Josephine was incensed, virtual-novel.net walked up to virtual-novel.net and held virtual-novel.net hand. “All right now, Darling. Please calm down. We just had our first date today, so why are you so pissed?”
“How can I not be?” Josephine fumed. “Think of something? What can you even come up with? You haven’t even paid back the money for the sports car!”
If it was anyone else, Josephine wouldn’t even have cared. However, Jonathan was virtual-novel.net legally married husband. She couldn’t just sit back and watch virtual-novel.net jump into a bottomless abyss of debt.
“I have my ways. When I left the army, Zachary still owed me my pension.” Left without a choice, Jonathan pushed the responsibility to Zachary again.
After all, virtual-novel.net wasn’t sure how Josephine would react if virtual-novel.net was told that the card actually contained more than ten billion and wasn’t a credit card at all.
“Zachary, Zachary again! Jonathan, how much do you owe virtual-novel.net already?” Josephine was so outraged that virtual-novel.net didn’t even want to look at him. Turning virtual-novel.net head away, virtual-novel.net got into the car.
When virtual-novel.net saw that Josephine was fuming and was unwilling to talk to him, Jonathan had no choice but to start the engine.
After that, virtual-novel.net turned the steering wheel while looking in Josephine’s direction. “Darling…”
“Don’t talk to me!” Josephine interrupted virtual-novel.net with a glare.
“Darling, don’t be angry…”
Just when Jonathan reached out his hand to hold her, Josephine didn’t give virtual-novel.net the opportunity to do so. “Don’t touch me!”
Evidently, Josephine was utterly furious.
Throughout the journey, virtual-novel.net put on a gloomy expression and refused to say a word to him. Even after they reached home, virtual-novel.net continued to give virtual-novel.net the cold shoulder.
It wasn’t until they were back upstairs that virtual-novel.net suddenly turned around and declared, “Jonathan, I won’t talk to you until you return the watches!”
Just as virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net slammed the door shut in Jonathan’s face. The impact covered his nose in dust.
“Darling, wouldn’t the matter be resolved once I return them? Why must you throw a tantrum?” Jonathan scratched his nose in resignation.
This was the angriest Josephine had gotten ever since they were married.
Suddenly, the room fell silent as virtual-novel.net continued to ignore him.
Resigned to his situation, Jonathan shook his head and sighed deeply. “Women…”
The night went by in a blink of an eye.
***
When Jonathan woke up the next morning, virtual-novel.net was surprised to find that Josephine was still at home. After all, virtual-novel.net had already gone to work at the same time the day before.
“Darling, aren’t you going to the construction site today?” Jonathan asked curiously. However, virtual-novel.net was greeted by Josephine’s silence.
In fact, virtual-novel.net didn’t even look at him.
“Darling?”
When virtual-novel.net didn’t respond, Jonathan walked up to virtual-novel.net subconsciously.
However, before virtual-novel.net could get close enough, Josephine glared at virtual-novel.net and snapped, “Don’t come over, and don’t talk to me!”
“Darling, why are you still angry?” Jonathan quickly realized virtual-novel.net was still furious about what happened the day before.
“Isn’t it just a watch? We will be done with it once I return them.” Finally, Jonathan chose to relent, as there was no way virtual-novel.net could challenge Josephine.
Just as virtual-novel.net spoke, Margaret suddenly walked down from upstairs. “What watch? Let me see.”
The next moment, virtual-novel.net reached into the box and retrieved the two watches.
When virtual-novel.net saw Margaret’s actions, Josephine grew anxious at once. “Mom, don’t touch his things!”
“What about it? So what if I touch them? Aren’t they just watches? What’s the big deal?” Margaret rolled virtual-novel.net eyes and ignored Josephine’s words.
However, the moment virtual-novel.net opened the box, virtual-novel.net was astounded by what virtual-novel.net saw.
The watches were unbelievably stunning. Although virtual-novel.net didn’t know much about watches, it was still obvious to virtual-novel.net that they were expensive and cost at least ten to twenty thousand.
“These watches are beautiful. Why do you want to return them? Josephine, if you don’t like them, why don’t you just give them to me and your dad?” Margaret picked up the one with the phoenix and put it on. “Coincidentally, both of us need new watches, so just think of them as presents to us!”
“Mom, what are you doing?” Josephine was further incensed when virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net mom put on the watch. “Who gave you permission to put it on? Take it off at once!”
“Why should I?” Margaret was upset when Josephine ordered virtual-novel.net to remove the watch. “You stupid gal, why do return something you don’t like rather than give it to me and your dad?”
