I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 32

Chapter 32 Make It Clear

Jonathan laughed and said, “I promise that I won’t be late.”

With that, Jonathan bid Yasmin farewell and went to find Jennifer. Since Jennifer didn’t want to cook that day, she asked Jonathan to eat out with her. Right when both of them met, Jonathan received a call from Polly.

In fact, Polly asked Jonathan to meet her at the coffee house. Since Polly had been a great help to Jonathan, he didn’t dare to reject her invitation. He smiled and replied, “What if I bring a friend with me?”

Polly let out a laugh. “Sure! That must be Ms. Hoffman, right?”

When they ended the call, Jonathan said to Jennifer, “Let’s go!” There was no way he would leave Jennifer to go for another gathering. Yet, Jennifer was worried. “Are you sure I should go?”

“Why not?” Jonathan laughed and drove in a different direction.

Meanwhile, Polly was already at the coffee house with a sumptuous dinner. However, it was evident that she wasn’t the one who prepared the dinner.

When all of them arrived, they sat down and began to eat. Since they already knew each other well, it wasn’t awkward during the dinner.

Sometimes, Jennifer would even fill Jonathan’s plate with food and get him some water, showering him with care and affection.

It was Jennifer’s intention to help him clean the house. Hence, she replied, “It’s fine.”

With that, Jonathan didn’t know how to reject her anymore. “All right, then.”

When they arrived at Jonathan’s house, Jennifer started to clean his bed and his laundry. She even took his undergarments to the toilet and washed them all.

That was exactly how virtuous she was.

Ever since she decided to accept Jonathan, her attitude had been entirely different. Jonathan had also noticed that, but he had mixed feelings about it.

That was the first time he experienced such feelings, so he couldn’t help but light up a cigarette.

Usually, Jonathan wouldn’t smoke. The only time he smoked a cigarette was when he felt frustrated.

He had always been a carefree person, but everything has changed since Jennifer showed up in his life. Thus, he felt contradicted and conflicted with his feelings.

After finishing his cigarette, he went back to his bed.

Shortly after, Jennifer also finished doing the laundry.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward when she saw Jonathan sleeping on the bed. However, she didn’t think much of it as she thought he might be tired after working for a whole day. Therefore, she didn’t want to interrupt him and left quietly.

At that moment, Jonathan sat up straight and uttered, “Jennifer!”

Perplexed, Jennifer turned and looked at Jonathan.

Jonathan said, “Sit here. I have something to tell you.”

Jennifer’s heart skipped a beat and began to pound at that instant. Her face began to turn pale as she had a bad feeling.

However, she still went to sit on his bed.

“Jennifer, I like you,” Jonathan suddenly said.

Jennifer’s face instantly flushed bright red upon hearing that. Her heart raced, and she didn’t even know how to react.

Jonathan added, “When I first saw you, I already knew that you were special. You’re attractive, and I even dream of you all the time.”

Jennifer wanted to say something, but she didn’t know where to start. Even though she had feelings for him, she still had her doubts.

“Listen to me, Jennifer,” Jonathan added.

She was stunned because she felt like something was amiss.

Jonathan continued, “I don’t want to hurt you. Back then, I was a scumbag. I lost count of all the women I slept with before. All I know is that we met in a bar, found each other attractive, and eventually slept together. Then, we’ll continue with our lives the next morning and never contact each other again. I’ve stayed with my master since young, and he is a strict person. I am used to living independently, and I am used to living alone. For these past years, I had lived abroad happily because I had no attachments. Therefore, I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life with a woman.”

Jennifer’s expression turned pale. She asked in a trembling voice, “What do you mean?”

Jonathan took a deep breath and replied, “At first, I was trying to live in the moment, and I never thought about the future. But now, I’m very conflicted. I’m telling you this because I don’t want to hurt

you.”

“Are you breaking up with me?” Jennifer asked. Then, she added with a dreadful smile, “Okay, maybe not since we have never been together.”

Jonathan thought he could slowly drift apart from her, but he couldn’t do it. Jennifer treated him so well, and he didn’t want to hurt her.

Thus, he changed his mind and wanted to make things clear between the both of them.

Jonathan continued, “Jennifer, I wouldn’t be honest with you if I never cared about you. I wouldn’t even tell you about it if I was just fooling around. I’m trying to make things clear now because I love you more than ever. Yet, I’m not ready to get married or even have my own family. I’m not mentally prepared for it, and I’m afraid of getting married.”

As Jennifer stared at him, she could tell that he was sincere.

Naturally, she felt better with his words.

“Jonathan, I understand what you mean.” Jennifer stood up and added, “I appreciate your honesty.” With that, she left his room.

Jonathan’s heart abruptly felt a little hollow. I’m such a scumbag!

No matter what, he did not want to get married and settle down in Horington. After all, he was used to living a carefree life.

To his surprise, Jennifer came back very soon.

Jonathan asked, “Why are you back?”

Jennifer replied coldly, “I thought you wanted to get in bed with me? Let’s do it. I’ll promise not to pester you. Just do it like how you did with other women. I’ll leave you after tonight.” Then, she went to his bed and lay down.

Jonathan knew that she was heartbroken, and he felt so bad about it. At that moment, he didn’t want to do anything to her. Instead, he pulled her into his arms. “I’m sorry, Jennifer.”

Jennifer remained silent upon hearing that. While leaning on his shoulder, tears slowly rolled down her cheeks. Those tears were heart-wrenching to look at.

Jennifer was really in love with Jonathan. After ending her marriage with Wesley, she knew she had to be careful with relationships. Even though she knew that they were incompatible, Jennifer couldn’t stop falling for Jonathan.

Thus, Jonathan’s words broke her heart. For an instant, she gave up on herself and tried to make him stay by giving herself to him.

However, at that moment, Jonathan’s embrace gave her an inexplicable sense of warmth. She knew that Jonathan was a great guy, but life was just too hard for her.

Jennifer remained quietly in his embrace.

Jonathan intended to comfort her, but he slowly got tempted by her body. Not to mention, the scent of her body was so seductive to him.

He suddenly got excited because he longed to get intimate with her.

Yet, he didn’t want to hurt her anymore.

Meanwhile, Jennifer could feel his heart racing and his temperature rising. She was tempted to do the same. After all, she was a thirty-year-old woman with desires, and Jonathan’s physique was unquestionably ideal.

Jonathan was excited too as he felt like he could finally get what he wanted.

However, at that moment, something unexpected happened.

They heard tires screeching loudly against the asphalt from outside. Jonathan’s heart sank, knowing that someone was coming after him.

Jennifer came to her senses too. She found it absurd and quickly covered herself with the quilt.

Jonathan then let out a deep sigh, thinking that he had missed the chance with Jennifer that day. He didn’t even know if Jennifer would give him a second chance. All of a sudden, his temper flared. Darn it! Who interrupted us?

At that moment, someone kicked the door open.

Then, Cyclops appeared in front of the door.

He looked devilish in a black shirt, sunglasses, and bald head. He scanned the surroundings and knew what they were trying to do in the room. His lecherous gaze swept past Jennifer before it landed on Jonathan.

“I seem to have come at the wrong time. Sorry for interrupting.” Cyclops sneered and added, “You’re a lucky guy. I can’t believe you get to pick this pretty woman up.”
