Chapter 243

Regardless, Howard still maintained a very humble stance at this moment.

“No need for that. I doubt she’s interested in meeting you,” replied Jonathan indifferently.

Yvette and Sandra’s expressions visibly eased as they felt relieved. For them, not having to apologize in person was the best outcome, as it meant they could avoid some humiliation.

After all, apologizing to people they had previously dismissed as unimportant was frustrating, especially since they regarded Rosalie as a murderer and Yvette’s former romantic rival.

Howard, on the other hand, did not breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, his brow furrowed even more tightly, and a sense of ominous foreboding crept over him. He feared the matter might not be as straightforward to grasp as he had initially believed.

“If that’s the case, we won’t bother you any further, Jonathan. We’ll be on our way,” said Sandra as she signaled to Howard with her eyes to make their leave.

However, Jonathan spoke up when Sandra started to get up. “By the way, settle your debts before you leave.”

“My debts?” Sandra looked puzzled as she didn’t know what Jonathan was referring to.

“You slapped Rosalie several times today. You can make amends by slapping yourself,” Jonathan stated casually, and Sandra couldn’t help but feel anger rising within her upon hearing him.

“He’s asking me to hit myself because I slapped Rosalie?” Sandra thought before blurting. “I owe her nothing! That woman deserved those slaps! It was just a couple of slaps, consider herself as getting off easy!”

Jonathan’s face abruptly turned grim. He rose to his feet, approached Sandra, and delivered a forceful slap in one swift move, which sent her tumbling to the ground.

The sudden slap surprised everyone as nobody expected Jonathan to strike out of the blue.
