The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 74

Right from the start, it had been a game played between the affluent and the less fortunate.

She pondered whether he intended to reveal his true identity to her after her hospital discharge and then declared the end of this game.

However, her composure only heightened Jonathan’s anxiety. Although she stood before him, he felt that they were worlds apart.

“Are you Jonathan?” Her second inquiry was delivered in the same composed manner. It seemed as if she were simply seeking an answer.

There’s nothing left worth your revenge, nor to cause me further loss.”

He narrowed his eyes and thought, “Revenge? Did this woman think I was taking revenge for Melanie? Melanie was not deserving of my efforts on her behalf.

However, the greater her composure, the more his irritation mounted. He began to question why he was so apprehensive about her tranquility and fearful that she might depart from his life.
