Chapter 734

“Really? If… If one day you discover that I’ve harmed you, will you refuse to forgive me even if I beg for your forgiveness?” His words emerged with difficulty, each syllable sounding strained as if they were forced from his throat.

Rosalie turned to face the man before her, her expression tinged with confusion. “Jon, what’s bothering you?” She noted, “I’ve noticed that you’ve been particularly uneasy lately.”

Jonathan fell into silence for a moment. “Uneasy… Yes, I am uneasy,” he confessed internally.

The recent events involving Amelia and Warren had left Jonathan feeling restless and fearful that they might encounter a similar fate.

“If my words made you uneasy just now, I can explain. I thought of Zachary because of Amelia’s comments. You don’t need to dwell on it. How could you ever harm me? Besides…” Rosalie’s voice trailed off as she lifted her hand, gently caressing his troubled eyes. “Didn’t we promise each other before? If, in the future, you cry in front of me, I will forgive you for everything.”

At this moment, Rosalie intentionally spoke these words to lighten the atmosphere and dispel the darkness in his eyes.

It worked as expected. After he heard her assurance, Jonathan’s eyes brightened slightly, and the heaviness in them seemed to gradually dissipate.

“Still, my feelings for you will never waver. No matter what the future holds, they will remain steadfast.” He took her right hand and placed it over his heart, emphasizing his sincerity. “So, you must also promise me that your love for me will remain unwavering!”

Rosalie blinked, recognizing that feelings were subject to change. Today, she held this sentiment, but now Jonathan was insisting she make a promise that her feelings would remain constant.

Her past relationship with Zachary had long been erased by time and pain. Now, her heart was filled with Jonathan alone, and her feelings for him… “They will never change. My feelings for you will never change, Jon,” she affirmed solemnly, her hand resting on his chest to feel his heartbeat, which seemed unusually fast.

Perhaps, in this world, there were feelings that could change and those that wouldn’t.

In the middle of the night, Jonathan’s phone rang, startling Rosalie awake. She opened her eyes in a daze and watched as he listened to the caller with a serious expression. After a while, he said, “I understand. I’m on my way.”
