Chapter 41

Carlos gave a half smile. “You will know it when you see Mr. Youngblood.”

Zachary grew increasingly nervous upon hearing his words.

The car stopped at the entrance of the Youngblood Residence. Zachary followed Carlos into the house to see Jonathan sitting on the couch, playing with an invitation card in his hand.

When Zachary approached, he saw the invitation in Jonathan’s hand was for his engagement party with Yvette.

“We meet again,” Jonathan said indifferently.

Zachary was stunned. At the moment, Jonathan was wearing a grayish–blue haute couture suit with his bangs combed backward, revealing his full forehead and straight nose. His enchanting eyes had a sense of laziness, and his sexy lips curled at the corner. These traits of Jonathan combined, letting him radiate an indescribable charm.

It became obvious to Zachary why many women were obsessed with Jonathan. Many socialites in the upper–class coterie tried their best to attract Jonathan’s attention not only because of his background but also because of his appearance.

However, when Jonathan looked at him, Zachary felt like a ferocious beast was targeting him. Zachary tensed as his breathing became unsteady. It was the same feeling he got yesterday when the latter stared at him.

The difference was that Zachary was in the dark while Jonathan was in the open the day before.

At that time, he could see Jonathan clearly, but it was the opposite for Jonathan. But now, Zachary was completely exposed and in Jonathan’s line of view.

Zachary smiled. “Yes.” He wondered whether Jonathan was talking about their encounter from yesterday.

“Did you mention anything about last night to others?” Jonathan said casually.

Zachary was frightened by Jonathan’s words.
