Chapter 182 First Kiss

“That’s not true.” Watching Josephine cry agonizingly in his arms, Jonathan couldn’t resist stroking her hair. “You silly girl, you still have me!”

Ever since they were married four years ago, he had never seen Josephine so lonely and helpless before.

Also, she had never cried so hard in front of him either.

Suddenly, Jonathan’s gaze darkened.

Since Josephine was no longer related to her family in any way, he did not see the point for the Smiths to continue existing.

“Jonathan, will you leave me one day too?” Raising her reddened eyes at Jonathan, Josephine gave him a vulnerable look, which sent his heart racing furiously.

“I won’t.” Jonathan shook his head. “I will never abandon you for the rest of my life.”

How can I ever bring myself to do that? You are the one whom I have resolved to protect my entire life.

“Really?” Josephine stared at him in disbelief.

“Of course!” Jonathan tousled her hair with a smile. “All right now, stop crying. At the rate you’re going, it’s going to give you wrinkles!”

“I don’t want any wrinkles!”

Having heard Jonathan’s comment, Josephine quickly wiped the tears off her eyes. Biting her lip, she tried desperately to hold back her tears. However, Jonathan’s heart melted when he noticed the determination in her eyes.

“Jonathan, do you think that I have made a mistake?” Josephine questioned.

“No!” Jonathan shook his head. “You did no wrong. The fault lies with them. One of these days, they will regret banishing you from the Smith family!”

“How is that possible?” Josephine couldn’t help but let out a self-deprecating laugh. “I think they can’t wait to be rid of me!”
