“What’s there to talk about? Teresa asked

“I know you don’t love me,” Jonathan said calmly

Teresa’s eyes briefly flashed, but she didn’t argue

“After all, we were husband and wife once. If you’re pregnant this time, I want the child. Think to them you want, give it to you, as long as you’re willing to remarry me.”

“I don’t want that, Jonathan,” Teresa replied bluntly

Jonathan sighed. “I’ll give you time to think about it. You don’t have to answer right away

Teresa pressed her lips together, as if something had just occurred to her She reached into her bag and pulled out a brand new watch, handing it to him.

Jonathan glanced at the watch, noticing the strap hadn’t even been adjusted. He raised an eyebrow. “When 6d you buy this?”

“A while ago, Teresa said. “Back in January, when I was moving out of Rosary Estates. I found it while packing and realized I never gave it to you.”

Jonathan frowned as he stared at the watch.

Teresa noticed his lack of enthusiasm and felt a pang of disappointment.

She thought, ‘Does he not like it? I spent so much time choosing this black watch, hoping it’d be perfect for him. Maybe it’s just not as good as the Rolex watch on his wrist.‘

“It’s not that I don’t like it,” Jonathan said, his voice softening. “I just don’t want you spending money on me. Maybe I’ve gotten used to being the one giving you gifts.”

As he spoke, Jonathan took off the watch he was wearing and handed it to Teresa. “Help me put this one on. From now on I’ll wear the one you bought.”

“You’re always like this,” Jonathan murmured, her voice carrying a mix of frustration and resignation. “That’s why I felt so insecure when we got married.”

Jonathan’s words caught her off guard. With his good looks, he was feeling insecure. It was the first time she’d ever heard him admit something like that.

Jonathan tapped the steering wheel lightly, the sound breaking the silence between them. “When we got married, I couldn’t help feeling out of place. You were driving a Porsche, carrying bags worth tens of thousands, more than I could ever afford.”

Teresa froze for a moment, hearing him speak again.

“But Teresa,” he continued. “Back then, my desire to marry you outweighed all my insecurities.”

Teresa remained silent. At that moment, it felt as though a gentle current had flowed into the deepest part of her heart, leaving her speechless.

She was moved, yet filled with regret that he hadn’t said this earlier. But it was too late now. Everything had already been decided.

Jonathan slowly took her hand, his deep eyes flickering with emotion as he gazed at her earnestly.

He said, “Do you remember that interview? I told you there was someone who made me realize I had to work hard, to earn enough to stand tall in front of her. That someone was you

“Jonathan, I’ve never cared about whether you had money, Teresa said.

She added, “If I cared about money, I could’ve married one of those rich heirs my dad wanted, or found someone even better on my own.”

“You may not care, but I do,” Jonathan replied, his gaze darkening.

He continued, “I’m a man. Back when we got married, aside from a few close friends, how many people said I wasn’t good enough for you?

“I could ignore what others thought of me, but I cared about how you felt and how your family fett
