Chapter 775
Jennifer’s tiny hands automatically reached out to touch Jonathan’s face as well.
Her friendly manner reminded Jonathan of Rosalie. He could not help but notice how much Rosalie and Jennifer
resembled each other.
Jennifer was very satisfied with her current height. Now, she could finally see her father well. Looking at him at such
a close distance was completely different from looking at his photos.
“This is the real daddy!” Jennifer thought.
“I will like you, Daddy, but you mustn’t keep crying in the future. Boys are not allowed to cry easily. You must not cry
easily from now on, or everyone will know that I have a crybaby for a daddy.”
Jennifer also seemed to feel a little embarrassed, causing Jonathan to feel both amused and exasperation at the
same time. No one dared to dislike Jonathan in Strico. However, Jennifer, who seemed to be his own daughter, was
showing him her disdain.
After saying these words, Jennifer yawned as if she was a bit sleepy, and her eyelids began to droop.
She felt comfortable and sleepy being held like this by Jonathan.
But despite her sleepiness, Jennifer still kissed Jonathan’s cheek.
Her soft and tender lips pecked Jonathan’s cheek casually. Jonathan’s body suddenly stiffened, and he felt his cheek
burning up hot while a strange feeling swept past his heart.
“Was that a… kiss?” Jonathan mused.
When Jonathan came to think of it, he and his son Guillermo had never done this before. Jonathan had never asked
for it, and Guillermo had never taken the initiative to do it either.

Guillermo’s material needs, and that was all. They never did anything intimate with each other. When Guillermo was
little, Jonathan seldom took the initiative to hold him.
Guillermo was taken care of by housekeepers and had everything a child could ask for. This allowed Jonathan to
spend more of his time on his business, and he never felt that there was anything wrong with it.
But now, because of the kiss Jonathan just received from Jennifer, he felt as if he had somehow missed out on
something important in the past.
As Jennifer had not come out of the study for a long time, the butler and Carlos were worried about her safety.
They didn’t know if Jonathan was scolding Jennifer in the study or if she was now

crying in terror. They feared that it would cause Jonathan and Jennifer to become estranged later. After all,
Jonathan’s relationship with Wrenna did not look good. At this moment, Carlos’s phone rang, and the caller was
Jonathan. When Carlos picked up the call, Jonathan only said, “Come to the study and get Jennifer out of here.”
“Okay!” Carlos hurriedly answered, worrying that Jennifer might have annoyed Jonathan.
When Carlos put away his phone, Rosalie asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Jennifer is in Mr. Youngblood’s study. Mr. Youngblood just asked for someone to take her out of the room,” Carlos
said.
“Then let me do it,” Rosalie said and headed for the stairs.
When Rosalie walked into the study, she saw Jennifer lying on Jonathan’s shoulder. Upon a closer look, Jennifer was
seemingly asleep, and her little hands were circled Jonathan’s neck.
As for Jonathan, he looked like a statue at that moment. When he saw Rosalie coming in, he frowned slightly and
asked, “Why did you come?”
“Since you only need someone to help you carry Jennifer out, what difference does it make whether it is Mr. Gibson
or me?” Rosalie looked at Jonathan and couldn’t help but feel sad again.
Carlos had told Rosalie that after she “died,” Jonathan carried her ashes in his arms, and acted like a man that lost
his soul and mind. Although Rosalie didn’t see it, she felt heartache just hearing that.
How much did Jonathan love Rosalie? Jonathan once said that he could give Rosalie his life, and he had done so.
Carlos also said that when Rosalie was trapped in the car, and Jonathan needed to choose to save her, he had even
recorded a will on the spot.
Jonathan loved Rosalie with his entire life, but now… he had forgotten it! He had simply forgotten how much he
used to love her.
However, Jonathan was still alive, and that was enough. This time, it would be Rosalie’s turn to make him fall in love
with her again.
Rosalie approached them slowly and said, “Jen must like you very much. Otherwise, she wouldn’t fall asleep on you
like this.”
He pursed his lips lightly. Take her away. I still have things to do.” However, Rosalie didn’t take Jennifer away
immediately. Instead, she asked, “You like Jen, don’t you?” Based on Rosalie’s understanding of Jonathan, if
Jonathan didn’t like it, even if it was just a little kid, he would never hold the kid in his arms, let alone allow the kid to
wrap her arms tightly around his neck like that.
Jonathan let out a chuckle and replied in a mocking tone, “What makes you think that?”

Rosalie’s red lips partly lightly as she answered, “Because you never let anyone touch your neck for no reason.” To
Jonathan, allowing someone to do that was akin to handing his life over to the person.
Once, when Jennifer wrapped her arms around Jonathan’s neck, Jonathan said, “Did you know that only your hands
are allowed to touch my neck like this? No one else is allowed to do so. Major arteries are here. Letting someone
touch this area like this is like handing your life to them.”
But now, Jonathan was also willing to let Jennifer’s little hands touch his neck like this. This meant that he had
already lowered his guard around Jennifer.
Jonathan’s face darkened as he mused, “Did I say something like that to Jen back then?”
It was as if Rosalie knew Jonathan very well, but Jonathan didn’t know Rosalie at all.
“Enough! Don’t think you know me so well. Even if you once knew me, it has been five years. How would you know
how I’ve changed in the past five years?” Jonathan said coldly.
Indeed, it had been five years. Rosalie took a deep breath. “In that case, allow me to get to know you again, okay?
I’ve asked Mr. Gibson, and he said that you haven’t fallen in love with any other woman for the past five years. You
may also get to know me again. Maybe you will find that it’s not so bad to have a wife like me.”
Jonathan narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Rosalie sharply. After a while, Jonathan’s lips slowly lifted into a
half-smile. “What’s going on? Do you want me to fall in love with you again?”
Rosalie’s beautiful eyes met Jonathan’s gaze. “Yes, I do.”
Rosalie’s simple and direct answer stunned Jonathan a little. The three words Rosalie just uttered sent ripples across
Jonathan’s heart as though they actually meant a lot to him.
Jonathan’s heartbeat was also accelerating.
Even though Jonathan desperately wanted to slow down his heartbeat, his body was not controlled by his will at all.
