Chapter 111 Jonathan Was Rejected
Zac nonchalantly agreed before hanging up the phone. As Jonathan sat on the couch in front of a stack of cash, his face darkened. Standing by the doorway, Finley dared not make a sound.
Half an hour later, Zac arrived.
“Jonathan, you’re quite impolite, not even answering my call. No wonder the little beauty…”
His voice reached them even before he stepped inside the room. As he mentioned the “little beauty”, Finley immediately stuck his head out and signaled with his eyes for him to hush. Zac was puzzled.
As he entered, he saw Jonathan sitting before a stack of cash and scrutinizing it seriously. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
“Since when did the dignified Mr. Finch develop an interest in money? Isn’t Finch Group’s wealth sufficient? Are you trying to stimulate your desire for more money by gazing at cash like this?”
Without paying attention to Finley, who was making frantic gestures at him, Zac casually took a seat on the couch beside Jonathan. When his gaze fell on the document file, he nonchalantly reached for it.
However, Jonathan snatched it away as soon as his hand touched it. He wondered if he was concerned
about this. His action made him even more curious about what was inside the document file.
He took a glance at the document file which was put aside by Jonathan. Then, while pretending not to care, he rose from the couch.
Jonathan, about you and the little beauty
He circled Jonathan, not noticing that when he mentioned the “little beauty“, Jonathan’s expression grew even darker.
Suddenly, he grabbed the document bag without being noticed by Jonathan. Jonathan wanted to stop but was a step too slow.
With a curious look as if he wanted to discover a secret, Zac pulled out the documents.
He scanned the contents and read them aloud nonchalantly, “Divorce agreement. Oh, so it’s a divorce…”
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something as his tone escalated abruptly.
“A divorce agreement!”
His gaze quickly swept to the signatures at the end–It was Rose’s signature. As he looked at Jonathan, he was frightened by his cold aura.
At this moment, he finally understood the severity of the situation. He knew he shouldn’t be causing any more trouble. He immediately placed the document into the file and handed it back to Jonathan.
For a moment, the room fell silent. Zac took a deep breath, linking what Jonathan had said about the agreement that night. Then, he gazed at the stack of cash.
The fact before him was evident–Jonathan, the heir of Finch Group, was rejected by Rose. He couldn’t help but click his tongue in admiration of Rose’s determination.
However, he had to do something when his friend was dumped.

After a moment of contemplation, he tentatively asked, “Shall we go for a drink?”
He thought Jonathan refused, but he suddenly stood up and replied, “Alright.”
With that, he left the room. Zac was stunned for a moment before he immediately caught up. He had not expected Jonathan would drive to Nightfall Lounge. It was already late, and the bar was in full operation.

Jonathan found the most secluded corner, ordered a lot of drinks, and started drinking them one by without saying a word.
At first, Zac considered striking up a conversation. However, in this situation, he dared not speak
na
casually. He could only accompany him and keep drinking silently.
In another corner of the bar, Kelly observed everything. She had followed them here. She had seen Jonathan’s displeased face while smoking alone outside Zenwood Gardens.
She had also seen his bodyguard coming and bringing a large bag from upstairs. It appeared that he had fallen with Rose. Afterward, she followed them to the hotel and came here.
She was certain that Rose and Jonathan had parted ways. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be drinking so recklessly.
She felt a sense of triumph. Concealed in the darkness, she observed their every move without blinking
an eye.
Even when Nixon called several times, she unhesitatingly hung up each time and focused all her attention on Jonathan. Finally, late into the night, there was a commotion in Jonathan’s corner.
He was drunk. Seeing the situation, Zac helped him out of the bar.
He intended to take him back to the Aquastead Hotel. However, just as they were about to get into the car, Jonathan pushed him away and stumbled in the direction of a certain place.
“Jonathan, where are you going?”
Zac caught up with him. It wasn’t until they reached the entrance of Elysian Hotel that he suddenly understood what was happening.
He had found Jonathan lying alone without wearing any clothes in a room here that early morning.
“Room 602,” Jonathan gave a room number.
After that day, he had kept this room reserved for a long time. He didn’t want anyone else to stay there. The hotel front desk seemed to recognize him and promptly checked him in.
Before going upstairs, he told Zac not to follow. Zac hesitated for a moment. Thinking that nothing
significant would happen at the hotel, he watched Jonathan go upstairs and left.
However, he didn’t notice that Kelly had also arrived at the hotel. She had been following them all along, seemingly searching for an opportunity. Now, it was the perfect opportunity.
