Jonathan's voice suddenly sounded next to Rose. "Do you want to listen anymore?"

Rose was caught off guard. She instinctively tried to defend herself as if she had just been caught red-handed, but Jonathan didn't give her the chance to do so. "What's there to listen about other people? If you want to listen more, we can-"

"Jonathan!" Rose urgently interrupted him before he could finish his suggestive words. When she met his teasing gaze, she quickly looked away as if his eyes burned her.

"I don't want to listen. You were the one who played it. How could you play something like that?" Rose was eager to prove that she wasn't the kind of person who enjoyed such things. But the more she tried to clear her name, the more flustered she became, and the less convincing she sounded.

Beside her, Jonathan shot her a doting look before suddenly becoming serious. "I had no intimate relationship with Yara, and the child in her womb isn't mind, so I didn't cheat on you."

The air in the car tensed. Rose had to admit that the heaviness she had felt earlier dissipated and was replaced by a sense of relief that was slowly spreading. But why? She would leave sooner or later. Rose lowered her gaze when she recalled what Eleanor had said.

"Jonathan..." Rose suddenly interrupted him and met Jonathan's gaze.

Jonathan responded with a hum and an expectant face as if he were waiting for Rose's praise.

Looking at his face, the words Rose wanted to say got stuck in her throat. In the end, she couldn't bring herself to say them and instead forced a smile.

She changed the subject. "What do you plan to do about Ms. Maize?"

Now that everyone in the Finch family knew Yara was pregnant with Jonathan's child, the wedding between the two families would likely be held soon. But how could Jonathan marry a woman carrying another man's child?

Jonathan let out a cold laugh at the mention of Yara. He hadn't wanted to bother with Yara at all, and he couldn't even bother to glance at her.
