Chapter 428
After Reina unlocked the handcuffs, Jonathan remained seated in the chair, his gaze fised on the girls beautiful face as he slightly tilted his head. After a moment, be eamestly spoke. “I meand what I said earlier. He my girlfriend.”
During this time, Paul was looking to expand Frost Group’s influence by arranging marriages for Jonathan and meeting vanous young ladies from prominent families daily. Facing these well–bred young ladies feh like dealing with the same mold repeatedly, becoming increasingly tiresome.
So, when he encountered Reina, he felt a strong attraction. She was different from the other young ladies he had met before, with a certain innocent persistence that he found quite charming.
Additionally, he was not someone who enjoyed physical contact with strangers, but the moment she bumped into him and ended up in his arms at the bar, he felt no resistance. Especially the sensation of that unexpected kiss truly stirred something within him. Therefore, in defiance of Paul and for his own sake, Jonathan wanted to keep Reina by his side.
However, Reina had no interest in anything beyond that. Now knowing Jonathan’s background and how his father treated her, she had no Radditional thoughts on the matter.
“I’ve been more than tolerant with you already. Dream on if you think be your girlfriend,” Reina retorted, distancing herself from Jonathan without hesitation.
Upon hearing her words, Jonathan remained unfazed. He locked eyes with her, gently tugging at the corner of his lips, “1 always get what I want. You will be mine sooner or later.”
Frowning in displeasure. Reina sarcastically remarked, “What a lunatic” Seeing that it was already late at night, and concerned that her parents might worry, she decided to leave. Yet, after taking only a few steps, she noticed that Jonathan sat unmoved like a rock. She had no choice but to

I do not consent to being your girlfriend.” “And I’ve said I won’t give up!
Enraged by his response, Reina emphasized each word, “I’ve already Jonathan asserted
Speechless, Reina glared at him with wide eyes before finally speaking heavily, “Will you stay or leave? If you don’t go, then I will. Remember, you are at a police station. If anything happens here, you’ll be responsible.”
Intending to intimidate him, Reina left after her warning. However, as she reached the door, she heard Jonathan say. “Even if anything happens.. you won’t escape. After all, you brought me bere.
Grinting her teeth, Reina felt a surge of anger rising within her. Shameless, she thought to herself
Despite her anger, she understood that the man spoke the truth. Particularly in a place like a police station, where crucial documents were kept. If any mishap occurred, she would certainly face consequences.
Unable to do anything else, Reina reluctantly turned back. What exactly do you want?” She clenched her fist tightly, feeling powerless for the first time, especially as the person in question was someone she had personally apprehended. If only she hadn’t been so impulsive in making the arrest.
Jonathan was in an excellent mood at the moment, arms crossed nonchalantly as he remarked, “I am quite innocent myself. I’m prepared for a lifetime commitment to one person. If you disagree, all I can do is wait here.
Observing his stubborn demeanor, Reina grinted her teeth in frustration. “Believe me. I can lock you up again.”
“If you want to lock me up, go ahead. Eventually, I’ll be fine. And then I can have a good chat with your colleagues about your irresponsibility” Jonathan said indifferently.
“How am I being irresponsible? You’re the one harassing me!” Reina was beyond annoyed, finding it outrageous how Jonathan twisted the truth. “Well, nowadays people love gossip. Whether it’s true or not doesn’t really matter. You might just become fodder for idle chatter afterward.” Jonathan retorted
At this point. Reima cursed at him in her mind with all sorts of profanities, Jonathan may look presentable, but his actions were truly despicable She could already anticipate the obstacles he would bring to her career.
In the end. Reina had to temporarily compromise. As the saying goes, a gentleman doesn’t suffer losses in the heat of the moment. She decided to deal with him for now and figure out a way to get rid of him once they left the police station.
“Fine, I agree,” Reina stated firmly. Her sudden acceptance caught Jonathan off guard. He had been prepared for a prolonged stay in the police station and did not expect it to be this easy.
“Really?” he asked somewhat uncertainly. Not wanting to give herself away with her tone, Reins simply nodded in response.

Jonathan was first stunned, then a look of joy adorned his face. He stood up abruptly, pulling Reina close by the shoulders, whispering sofily in hier car. “Are you sure about this? Once you agree, there’s no turning back.”
“Do I have any other choice at the moment!” Reina asked, glancing at Jonathan’s hand on her shoulder and raising a brow
“You can agree now or after my persistent pursuit. Regardless, I’ll treat you well. However, the latter will enhance your experience and memories of this relationship Jonathan explained.
“No need, Reina answered. She waved her hands, then realized immediately that her current attitude was not correct. Hastily correcting herself, she added. “I mean, the result will be the same in the end, so let’s not waste time.”
After speaking, she inwardly grumbled, Our relationship will only last until we exit through that door anyway, so it doesn’t make a difference at all.
Jonathan didn’t press the issue, simply stating. “Since you’ve agreed to be my girlfriend. I feel obliged to explain. I’m not just a rich kid who indulges in pleasure. You won’t suffer under my care. I’ll handle things with my father, so don’t worry about your interactions with him.”
Swearing as if taking an oath, Jonathan’s words softened Reina’s heart. However, she doubted his sincerity, While he seemed impressive in every way, they had only known each other for a few hours. For her, he was sull a stranger, making it impossible to jump into a relationship with him.
Reina apologized in her heart and then expressed her desire to head home due to the late hour Jonathan agreed and unreservedly escorted her outside. “Let’s go. I’ll walk you home”
The unfamiliar male presence wafted by, making Reina slightly uncomfortable. To maintain her composure, she persisted in enduring the
situation
As the two exited. Reina locked the police station door, gaining confidence. She squinted at the hand on her shoulder before decisively turning around and delivering a heavy punch to Jonathan’s abdomen.
