At this moment, a subtle change occurred in Jonas's heart. He stood up and returned to June's side.

"If you're bored, let's go for a walk. There's a river next here and a corridor near the river." Jonas also didn't want to stay here but he wanted to eat his niece's birthday cake, so he wanted to go out for a walk before coming back.

"Alright." June nodded. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a smile. Jonas walked forward and June was a step behind him. She could finally openly look at his back.

Jonas led her to walk along a familiar path. There were street lights all over the place. The place was not bright enough but was warm. Getting away from the noises, the surroundings all became quiet. The wind blew gently. June was wearing a formal dress. When she gently tugged the corner of her dress, her long hair gently fluttered in the direction of the wind and slide past her collarbone. She felt a little itchy, just like her heart.

Jonas stood on the corridor and looked back at her. He found that she was looking at everything curiously.

In this city, there were many wealthy and influential people but June knew very few of them. When she stood here to look at the lights on the other side of the river, she felt a little sad. The wealthy people lived like heaven and people like her who were struggling below the poverty line did not even know if they would have dinner the day after.

Jonas stretched out his hand and held her shoulder, "Are you cold?"

June shook her head and replied, "I am not cold. The night here is really beautiful."

Jonas still took off his suit coat to cover her shoulders. June's heart panicked. She hurriedly wanted to return the coat to him but Jonas had already turned around and walked forward.

June's breathing became rapid. Jonas seemed to be cold but in fact, he was even able to discover even the smallest details. He was like rain that nourished everything. His care was slight but considerate. June quickly followed him. Just as they were walking along the river corridor, on the balcony of the second floor of the villa, Skylar almost crushed the red wine cup in her hand. She saw Jonas use his coat to cover June. That intense jealousy was like a ball of fire, burning in her heart.

"Jonas, you owe me." Tears streamed down Skylar's eyes. Her life seemed to be happy until now. But actually, she regretted, suffered, and was disappointed every night. Even if Justin loved her so much that he was willing to give her his company to her, her heart was still empty. When she heard that her two children could only call Jonas Uncle, she felt even more uncomfortable. She wished that the children were his and could call him daddy.

Skylar closed her eyes and endured all the pain. Her numb heart felt pain because of June's appearance.

"Skylar, I've been looking for you everywhere. Why are you standing here alone?" Justin smiled happily when he saw his beautiful wife.

"Justin, look, the scenery at night is really beautiful. Why haven't I noticed it before?" Skylar leaned charmingly against Justin's shoulder. Justin was getting old and his body was getting worse every day. However, she was still young. She could only rely on her fantasy of Jonas to support her get through the lonely nights. Although Justin was not bad, he was still old. Skylar did not dare to betray him at this time She could only endure her desire in pain.

Justin looked at his wife's charming face. He began to lament the ruthlessness of time. He knew that the young Skylar had suffered grievances to be with him, so he tried his best to compensate her and give her everything he had.

"Skylar, if I leave one day, take good care of Christine for me. I will give you everything I have." Justin hugged his wife and said affectionately.

"Justin, what are you talking about? Don't say that. I'm afraid. I don't want you to leave me." Skylar's eyes immediately reddened and she said a little angrily.

"My health is getting worse and

worse every day. Last time, the doctor said that if I don't replace a matching heart, I will only have two years left. Justin concealed from the whole family that he had a heart attack. Moreover, it had become more and more serious recently. He would replace it difficult to breathe and felt an oppressive pain in his heart after only a few steps of walk.

"I will definitely replace one for you, Justin. I will definitely let you live well." Skylar looked at her husband gently like a virtuous wife.

"Alright, I won't give up. With such a beauty like you, my life is worthy. Jonas also married. I have no other worries, you guys should get along well in the future." Justin smiled emotionally.

"Alright, stop şaying such things

anymore. Let's go downstairs. There

are quite a few guests today.

Christine has grown up." Skylar held Justin's hand and walked

downstairs. Actually, she hoped that Justin would quickly die so that she could go replace Jonas without hesitation.

June followed Jonas. Her heart beat quickly when she saw his tall and slender figure.

The night was quiet. The sound of his steady footsteps made her feel reassured. June wished that this was a date. However, she and Jonas seemed to be very close but they were very far away. She would never be able to get close to his heart.

"Honey!" June stopped and shouted at him.

Jonas turned around and looked at her calmly, "What's wrong?"

"I... I'm fine, shouldn't we go back? We've gone a long way." When June saw his mature and cold face, she didn't ask the question she wanted to ask anymore.

She actually wanted to ask him if she could see how did the man he liked look like.

However, she felt that the topic had gone too far. The long marriage agreement clearly stated that she could not interfere in his personal affairs.

June did not want to irritate Jonas. This was not good for her and the people of the Edwin Family would not let her go.

Jonas saw that she wanted to say something but hesitated. He narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Alright, let's go."

The two of them went back to the main hall of the Brid family without any extra words. At this moment, Christine had already received many birthday gifts. There were so many gifts that they piled like a smatt hill, which made all the young people envious.

June was also very envious. Justin loved his eldest daughter very much and today's party was also very grand.

Skylar stood by the side with a smile on her face. In the eyes of outsiders, she was always smart, capable, gentle, and virtuous. She had a very good temper and she was courteous, which helped her earn everyone's praise.

However, only Christine and Jonas knew that this was just a fake image that Skylar used to cheat Justin. The real she was actually an old witch who always liked to feed poisoned apples to others. "Christine, make a wish. Dad will definitely make your wish come true." Justin said gently to his daughter.

Christine immediately closed her eyes and put her hands on her chest. She said loudly, "I hope Mom and Dad can remarry and give me a complete family."

After she said her wish loudly, the atmosphere suddenly froze. Skylar, who was still smiling just now, was also stunned. Even Justin's smile became a little embarrassed.
