Next Man, Better Plan novel Chapter 195

This was a fatal blow to the heart. Quennel’s chest ached, and he could barely breathe. “Stephanie…”

Ternence finally spoke up. “That’s enough! Quennel, come back here!”

Quennel was too emotional and irrational at the moment. As the head of the family, Ternence had to rein him in.

A guest was a guest. Their family had raised Stephanie for years, and they couldn’t afford to look bad in this matter.

Besides, Jonathan was Stephanie’s husband. They had no reason to throw him out.

Jonathan’s hand naturally came to rest on Stephanie’s slender waist. He smiled gently. “Next time you come back to the Gonzalez home, be sure to let me know in advance. I came in such a hurry I didn’t have time to prepare proper gifts.”

The Gonzalez family was, in a way, Stephanie's family. Jonathan was just being polite; of course, he had brought gifts—premium coffee, fine wine, each the best on the market.

In addition, he had also prepared a luxury watch for Ternence.

Wilma received a gift as well, a designer silk scarf, the most coveted brand among her circle, worth a six-figure sum.

His generosity surprised both Ternence and Wilma.

They hadn’t taken the marriage seriously at first, but now it seemed that Jonathan treated Stephanie quite well.

Stephanie was also surprised that Jonathan had managed to prepare so much in less than half an hour.

His presence at the Gonzalez home still felt surreal to her, but as her husband, it made perfect sense for him to accompany her on a visit to her adoptive family.

Even though Ternence was caught off guard, he welcomed Jonathan inside with a smile.

At the dinner table, Jonathan was treated like the guest of honor.

Stephanie was practically a daughter of the Gonzalez family, which made Jonathan their son-in-law.

This was his first official visit, and Quennel was so angry his face turned pale.
