Chapter 546 He Will Like Her

Time ticked by, and the sky began to lighten with the approaching dawn. Rose remained by Jonathan's side, holding his hand.

Her mind wandered through a myriad of memories where he had fearlessly shielded her from harm, stood up for her, and protected her.

She could feel an undeniable shift within her heart. Something she had once held so firmly was beginning to change.

"Jonathan..." she whispered, gazing at his pale face. She seemed to have made a decision.

When Clover and Emily entered the room, they heard Rose muttering something indistinctly but couldn't make out exactly what she was saying.

"Rosie, you need to rest," Clover urged, his voice filled with concern. Rose had stayed up all night, and her exhaustion was evident.

He exchanged a glance with Emily, who immediately stepped forward. "Rosie, I made some breakfast. Let's go eat something," she said, pulling Rose along before she could refuse.

As they left the room, Clover turned his gaze to Jonathan, his eyes showing a rare hint of admiration.

"You truly care for Rosie, huh?" he muttered. Jonathan's willingness to take a hit for Rose was something Clover hadn't expected.

His words were meant to be private, but to his surprise, Jonathan suddenly opened his eyes.

"You!" Clover exclaimed, a mixture of confusion and surprise washing over his face. "How long has he been awake? Was he pretending to sleep?" he thought.

The bewilderment in Clover's eyes was impossible to miss, even without words, and Jonathan caught on quickly. He rolled his eyes.

"I wasn't pretending to be asleep. I just..." He trailed off as the memory of Rose's words echoed in his mind.

His gaze softened as he confirmed to himself that she had indeed said what he thought she had. A satisfied smile tugged at his lips.
