Chapter 1131
Little did I know that as soon as I finished asking, Johnathan clicked his tongue and said in a lecturing tone, “I say, Esmie, why are you always thinking about bars? Is that a good place? Listen to me, don’t go to those kinds of places when you have nothing to do; it’s easy to be led astray.”
I was speechless. “That’s not a good place? Mr. Dunlap, you used to go to that kind of place often before, didn’t you? Isn’t it true that every pub in Freybourne had a private room reserved just for you, Mr. Dunlap?”
“Yes!” Vonnie hummed.
Johnathan chuckled, “I had ‘turned over a new leaf’ a long time ago. You can see that I rarely go to those places now. So in the future, you guys shouldn’t go to that kind of place anymore. Even if you do, remember to call me along.”
Vonnie pursed her lips and ignored him.
I suddenly remembered the scene when I first saw Johnathan. Back then, Johnathan had a debonair playboy look. The shirt was always unbuttoned improperly, with a few buttons deliberately loosened, revealing half of his chest, giving off a feeling of impropriety and indecency. And I remember at that time, he had quite a lot of “gossip news.”
Reynaldo, who was always silent, was the complete opposite of him. I never expected a playboy like him to actually settle down one day. Indeed, since he was with Vonnie, he really had no gossip. And it was clear that his heart and eyes were full of Vonnie. On weekdays, he would visit the set to see Vonnie after work.
Vonnie also quietly told me he said that the man had not wanted to settle down before and had not wanted to marry her. The result now was that he “begged” her every day to marry him, proposing to her in different ways every day. Vonnie also said that she was not going to agree to Johnathan’s proposal so easily. She demanded that Johnathan propose to her 99 times before she agreed, just to test that man.
When Vonnie said those words, her eyes were filled with happiness. Seeing how well they are doing now, I am also filled with joy and happiness in my heart.
My thoughts were wandering, and then Johnathan’s earnest preaching voice came again, “I’m telling you, Esmie, listen to me, don’t go to the bar anymore in the future. Back in the day, you often disregarded Reynaldo’s feelings and went to the bar to have fun, sometimes not coming home all night. He was really upset. I remember one time, you insisted on going to the bar to have fun. He couldn’t stop you and felt very sad, so he came to drink with me. The result was that it suddenly started raining, and he was so anxious that he said he would go to bring you an umbrella. I even scolded him as a fool at that time: ‘You, a young lady, still need that umbrella?’ He insisted on going. I was not happy in my heart, quietly followed him, and then saw him waiting for you outside with an umbrella, getting soaked through. What made me the angriest was that you came out and even scolded him. You, huh!”
I do not deny that I was indeed “extremely terrible” to Reynaldo in the past. But what’s the point of bringing up those past things now? The issues between me and Reynaldo now are not just about the three years of marriage, but also about all the humiliation and bullying I endured from him.
