I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 111

“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 much have you done for her? Do you owe her anything? She just yells at you whenever she's unhappy. Who in the world does she think she is?”

She knew Jonathan the best and had seen how much he had done for Jennifer. Yet, Jennifer seemed to 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 slept with her,” remarked Amber.

Jonathan was instantly exasperated. “No, of course not.” She stopped the car and turned to him seriously. “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'm someone 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 do you 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 need to 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 know there's no need to say thank you between us, but having a friend like you by my side, I really feel that I won't have any regrets even if I die now.”

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

The two returned home before long.

Jonathan had pajamas here, so he went to take a shower with well-practiced ease and changed into new 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 can do.”

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

Then, she went to find the hair dryer. Jonathan had her sit on the couch and attentively blow-dried her hair behind her. Amber was half-lying down as she enjoyed the service. “Go, my gopher. Pour me a glass 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 to serve 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 so unbearable?” she questioned. These were words that she had been holding in her heart. In fact, she had always been unhappy and resentful.

Jonathan turned off the hairdryer without answering her question. Instead, he turned around and went to 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 cheesy dialogues.”

“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 at Smealand. I established Red Wolves and hired mercenaries, shuttling between various small countries with them. We experienced a myriad of tasks and all sorts of local customs, meeting all kinds of beauties 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 beauty that catches my eye, I'll chat her up, then get a room in the hotel next door. After spending a pleasant night, 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 held herself back.

“I know what kind of person I am. I hate being tied down the most.” Jonathan looked at her seriously and 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 I cherish 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 be overly 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 lived together in harmony.

The next morning, he got up first and said to Amber, who was still asleep in the adjacent room, “I'll go to 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 in front 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 presently feeding 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. He felt like the sun was indeed bright and shining today.

“Winnie.” He walked in with a smile.
