Chapter 93 The Annual Party

 

“They’re not going to see it even if you kiss me…”

 

 

With an arm wrapped around Josephine’s waist, Jonathan was just about to capture her lips, but she broke free and sprinted downstairs as though fleeing for her life.

 

When Jonathan went downstairs, the family of four was already dolled up, ready to leave anytime.

 

As soon as Margaret spotted Jonathan’s casual dressing, her expression abruptly darkened. “Are you going like this, Jonathan?”

 

 

 

“Is there a problem?” Jonathan countered blasely.

 

 

In the past few years, all I ever wore was a military uniform aside from casual clothes. I’ve hardly worn anything else.

 

“Do you know the occasion today?” With a wintry expression on her face, Margaret enunciated, “It’s the Smith family’s annual party today, and everyone will be attending in formal attire. Do you want to be the only person dressed casually? And are you trying to have us humiliated with you deliberately?”

 

 

 

“You’ll be humiliated with me just because I’m not dressed as ostentatiously as you in attending the party?” Jonathan then sneered, “Do you perchance think that the Smith family’s annual party is some international event?”

 

He wasn’t in the mood to bicker with her.

 

 

 

If she had nicely coaxed me into changing, perhaps I wouldn’t have had any objections. Unfortunately, I simply can’t stand her sarcastic remarks!

 

“Are you going to change or not?” Margaret lambasted while pointing her finger at him, her expression frosty.

 

“No.”
