Semua Bab All She Needs: Bab 11 - Bab 20

She hadn't expected Jonathan, who usually cared for her and doted on her in every possible way, to lose his temper with her to such an extent. "You don’t love me anymore. You're in love with another woman. Why are you yelling at me?" Monica started to cry like a baby.Jonathan grabbed the magazine on the table and threw it straight at Monica’s head. If he was capable of cherishing this woman, he could also immediately get her out of his life. He only wanted an obedient woman, not one who would always oppose him and be a nuisance. If he could design a special wedding dress for her, he could also make another woman wear the same wedding dress. He could do whatever he wanted.Jonathan didn’t have a one and only, and Monica was certainly not such a person for him. "You ceased to be a part of my life the moment you didn’t show up in my fashion show.""Wait…are you kidding me, Jonathan? Please don’t…" She knew he was serious about this, but she didn’t want to accept it. "I know it’s my fa

"It’s nothing…Mr. Murphy is just looking through some things.""Mommy, did Grandma use all these things when she was still alive?" Lucas’ delicate voice could be clearly heard from where Theodore stood. "Yeah." Scarlett walked down the stairs, only to find that her father, whom she hadn’t seen for the past six years, had returned home. "Let’s go." Staring at Theodore, she took Lucas’ hand and continued on her way."Scarlett, you’re back." Theodore was a little emotional. He'd missed her every second she'd been away. Lucas’ small figure caught his eye. "Who is this boy?" "You haven’t eaten anything, right, Theodore? I’ll ask Mr. Murphy to get some food prepared." Kate held Theodore’s hand, afraid the father and daughter would get too close. "Where are you going, Scarlett? Stay here at home." Theodore pushed Kate away to stop Scarlett and Lucas.Home, he said. Scarlett found that word laughable. "This is your home, not mine or Lucas.'""Lucas? This is Lucas? Is he your son?"S

The man that she'd investigated was just a civil servant, so how had he been able to pay Theodore ten million dollars? He must have someone backing him up.She couldn't help but be impressed by her son. Even while asleep, he was still able to bring her inspiration.Today, Scarlett was dressed in white work attire. After actively searching for him, she eventually found the man who paid Theodore. The civil servant was no match for her silver tongue, and after a lengthy back and forth, he finally slipped up and unwittingly revealed details about the man behind the money.The man provided Scarlett with a name and told her to go to Leonard Corporations and ask for a person named Johnny. Then she would be able to find the culprit behind everything."Hello, I’m looking for an employee here called Johnny." Scarlett showed up at Leonard Corporations using her identity as a lawyer.The receptionist looked shocked upon hearing Scarlett use the name Johnny so casually because she knew exactly

Six years ago, Jonathan had only been a patron of this establishment, but now he was the owner of the place. Thus, it was no surprise that their attitudes toward Jonathan were completely different.Jonathan forced Scarlett into the room where they'd spent the night together six years ago. The familiar scene made her heart race and her cheeks flush red. All she wanted to do was find a corner where she could hide."Sir, here is your room." The attendant shrewdly left after delivering the wine.Scarlett was rooted to the spot. She didn't understand what Jonathan had planned for her, but she had a faint inkling of what was about to happen.When in doubt about what to do, run away. This was what her son always said.Scarlett rushed to the door, but regardless of how much she banged on it, she couldn't get it to open.She knew this was all Jonathan's plan. The attendant from just now must’ve locked them both in the room.Turning around to face Jonathan, she saw that he was lounging le

It was as if she'd completely exposed herself. She hastily tidied up her hair and clothes, but quickly stopped again."Come clean or you’ll face the consequences. If you don't give me a good explanation today, then you can forget about going upstairs to rest." He gave the table a knock as if he were actually questioning her in court."I don't know what you’re talking about." She sat defensively back on the couch and fidgeted with her long fingers. Just this small action was enough to reinforce Lucas’ hunch that his mother was hiding something from him."Then I’ll lay out the facts for you. Number one, you left the office before 12 pm. Number two, you haven't been answering your phone since 1 pm. Number three, this was because you went to Leonard Corporations and were forcefully dragged away by Jonathan Leonard. As for where the two of you went afterward, that's for you to answer."Scarlett stared at her son, who sported a serious expression. His manipulativeness was comparable to t
