“Was that Jennifer?” Amber asked when she saw Jonathan's strange expression.

He nodded.

“She seemed pretty worked up. Was she scolding you?” she asked.

Jonathan laughed and said, “Let's just hurry up and go home.”

Amber immediately said agitatedly, “What the hell! Jennifer is such an ungrateful woman. How muchhave you done for her? Do you owe her anything? She just yells at you whenever she's unhappy. Whoin the world does she think she is?”

She knew Jonathan the best and had seen how much he had done for Jennifer. Yet, Jennifer seemedto think nothing of him. This made Amber even more annoyed than Jonathan was.

Calmly, the man answered, “With Winnie's situation now, it's understandable that she's in a bad mood.”

“Understandable, my foot. You indulge her too much. Aren't you usually brutish and unreasonable?Why are you so spineless in front of her? Don't tell me that you're giving in to her because you sleptwith her,” remarked Amber.

Jonathan was instantly exasperated. “No, of course not.” She stopped the car and turned to himseriously. “Really?”

He was speechless. “I've said I didn't. Why wouldn't I admit it if I slept with her? Do you think I'msomeone who doesn't dare to own up to what I did?”

Amber knew what kind of person he was. Since he said that, she naturally believed him. “Then, why doyou keep spoiling her?”

“It's not a matter of spoiling her. Jennifer's mood now is understandable. I'm a man, so there's no needto bicker with her,” he said.

“Forget it.” Amber sighed. “I'm the villain now.”

After she finished speaking, she started the car again and drove home.

Jonathan saw how despondent she was and felt a little distressed. He said sincerely, “Amber, I knowthere's no need to say thank you between us, but having a friend like you by my side, I really feel that Iwon't have any regrets even if I die now.”

The words were very emotional, making Amber instantly feel embarrassed. However, her heart wasvery touched. She pretended to smile relaxedly, saying, “Are you crazy? Why are you saying that all ofa sudden?”

The two returned home before long.

Jonathan had pajamas here, so he went to take a shower with well-practiced ease and changed intonew pajamas.

Amber also seemed to have taken a shower and came out wearing a sapphire blue shirt and shorts.With dripping wet hair, she looked extremely charming.

Jonathan chuckled. “Shall I blow-dry your hair?”

Stunned, she asked in slight surprise, “You know how to do that?”

He rolled his eyes and answered, “Are you picking on me? Blowing hair is something everyone cando.”

Amber could not help but laugh. “Sure, sure. I worked my heart out for you these days. It's time for youto repay me.”

Then, she went to replace the hair dryer. Jonathan had her sit on the couch and attentively blow-dried herhair behind her. Amber was half-lying down as she enjoyed the service. “Go, my gopher. Pour me aglass of red wine from the wine cabinet.”

“Yes, Your Majesty,” he said immediately before doing as told.

The glass of wine soon reached her hand. She took a faint sip and exclaimed, “This feels marvelous.”

Jonathan continued blowing her hair while saying casually, “If it feels so good, tell your husband toserve you like this every day in the future.”

Amber's face instantly fell. She suddenly felt exceedingly unhappy.

Jonathan was observant, so he immediately noticed it.

“Jonathan,” she suddenly called out.

“Mm?”

“Do you hate me in your heart?”

“Of course not,” he answered.

“Then, I don't understand why you're not willing to marry me even under false pretenses. Am I sounbearable?” she questioned. These were words that she had been holding in her heart. In fact, shehad always been unhappy and resentful.

Jonathan turned off the hairdryer without answering her question. Instead, he turned around and wentto the wine cabinet to pour himself a glass of red wine as well. Then, he came to sit next to Amber.

Under her intent gaze, he raised his glass and said, “Come, let's toast.”

She clinked her glass with Jonathan's.

The two of them then downed their drinks in one go.

He looked at Amber, whose face was alluringly red, looking extraordinarily beautiful.

“Amber, you're a gorgeous and attractive girl,” he remarked with a faint smile.

“All right, stop right there. Don't tell me you only see me as a close friend or something like that.”

Jonathan laughed and said, “Am I that cliche? You're the only one who can come up with such cheesydialogues.”

“Then, what did you want to say?” she asked.

He touched his nose before answering, “Before I came to Horington, I've always been working atSmealand. I established Red Wolves and hired mercenaries, shuttling between various small countrieswith them. We experienced a myriad of tasks and all sorts of local customs, meeting all kinds ofbeauties from numerous countries and races. Anglandurns, Ustranasions, Smealanders, Jetroinians—there were too many to count. My favorite thing to do was to meet girls in the bar. When I see a beautythat catches my eye, I'll chat her up, then get a room in the hotel next door. After spending a pleasantnight, we'll go our separate ways in the morning, no strings attached.”

Amber listened on with a strange expression. She had wanted to say something but ultimately heldherself back.

“I know what kind of person I am. I hate being tied down the most.” Jonathan looked at her seriouslyand said, “That's why if I marry you or Jennifer, I know that the end result will be you two hating me,and that is the last thing I want to see. This is what I truly think. I cherish you two very much, but Icherish our friendship and relationship even more.”

Amber understood him better now. He was a frank and sincere person.

However, she still asked, “So do you plan on playing around for the rest of your life?”

The man chuckled. “The rest of my life is too long. I haven't thought that far ahead.”

The knot in Amber's heart officially unraveled. She was also a carefree person who did not want to beoverly engrossed with love, so she said, “My hair isn't dry yet. Carry on.”

With a laugh, he replied, “Yes, ma'am!”

That night, Jonathan slept in the guest room while Amber took the master bedroom. They livedtogether in harmony.

The next morning, he got up first and said to Amber, who was still asleep in the adjacent room, “I'll goto the hospital first.”

The woman hummed groggily.

Jonathan arrived at the hospital as quickly as he could. The morning sun shone on the tree branches infront of the building, and everything seemed so bright.

The moment he arrived at Winnie's ward, he saw that she was already awake. Jennifer was presentlyfeeding the girl oatmeal porridge. Seeing Jonathan, Winnie immediately shouted happily, “Jonathan!”

Jonathan could not help but feel a sense of joy when he saw that the little girl had finally recovered. Hefelt like the sun was indeed bright and shining today.

“Winnie.” He walked in with a smile.

Jennifer glanced at him, and her smile instantly turned frosty. She ignored the man and continued tofeed her daughter the oatmeal porridge.

Winnie did not want to eat anymore and reached out to Jonathan instead. “Jonathan, I want you tocarry me.”

He answered smilingly, “Sure.”

Jennifer stopped him, looking at him coldly. “You're not needed here. Please leave.”

Jonathan could not help but feel a little embarrassed. He did not want to say anything else either, for itwas not his character to explain himself. Thus, he smiled at Winnie and said, “I'll come to see youagain next time.” Then, he turned around and left.

Since Winnie was fine now, he had no need to worry about her anymore.

In truth, Jennifer still did not know what exactly happened to her daughter. All she knew was thatWinnie's condition began to improve when she woke up. Not only did the girl wake up, but her highfever also subsided. Later, Dr. Langdon gave her a checkup overnight and claimed that it was amedical miracle. He said that Winnie's blood platelets had returned to normal, and her body functionshad recovered. If everything was fine, she could be discharged in three days.

Not even in her dreams would Jennifer think that this situation had anything to do with Jonathan.Regardless, Winnie was fine now. Hence, Jennifer was content from the bottom of her heart.

At the same time, she was finally enlightened. More accurately, she had opened her eyes to that man'strue colors.

Jennifer felt that the only person she needed to care about in this world was her daughter, Winnie. Allmen were unreliable, including Jonathan.

Naturally, Jonathan did not know the changes in her thoughts, nor would he care to know. As long asshe and Winnie were fine, he would be at ease. The next thing he had to prepare for was the GoldenSword Tournament.

Preparations for the competition were in full swing in Fairlake. The continuous entry of experts formeda sort of advertising effect. Some hidden elites saw that this competition was the real deal, so theybecame interested and came to register.

Therefore, the Golden Sword Tournament became increasingly grand and formal.

This scale of expansion was something that even Strikezone Martial Arts' Yasir had not expected.

Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye, and there were only three days left before the GoldenSword Tournament officially started.

Starting today, all the participating experts would have to go to Fairlake.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Jonathan met up with Polly. Concurrently, Jessica, Yasmin, and Amberalso arrived. Of course, they would want to attend such a grand event, especially since the Jonathanthat they cared dearly for was there.

Polly had arranged for an extended Mercedes-Benz, so they could all fit into one vehicle comfortably.

The driver was Donovan from the Xanthos family.

Soon, the Mercedes-Benz took to the highway under the bright sun.

Along the way, the people in the car felt conflicted.

This event should've made them feel intrigued and ecstatic. However, Jonathan and Polly wereparticipating, which caused the others to worry about their safety. Therefore, there was less joy and anextra layer of gloom blanketing them.

Meanwhile, Amber had completed Jonathan's secret operations. To his surprise, the hacker team thatshe looked for was none other than Mabel.

Amber confirmed that the selection of candidates for the contest was chosen by a computer. Nominally,it was claimed to be selected by random. However, in reality, it was secretly fixed by Strikezone MartialArts.

Nonetheless, now that Mabel's team had hacked the system, it would be Jonathan's side to arrange thematches this time.
