All She Needs Chapter 139 Subterfuge
Lucas read through the text he'd just received from Dylan before casually composing another new message. "Hey, big bully. Uncle Dylan's on his way to City Hall to pick up my mommy." After clicking send, he didn't bother to check if Jonathan had replied. Instead, he turned his attention back to the soap opera playing on screen. Truth be told, all this stealth and subterfuge of being a double agent thrilled him to no end.Unfortunately, luck wasn't on Jonathan's side that day—he only saw Lucas' text half an hour later. He immediately jolted, instantly alert, as he glanced at the time. "I need to leave now. It'll be too late if I wait any longer," he mused.Yet, by the time he reached City Hall, Dylan had already picked up Scarlett. Jonathan stood in front of the empty hall for a while, entirely dumbfounded. Dylan's increasingly fierce attacks against him urged him to make a decision. He knew what he wanted and what he had to do to get it.A while later, Dylan drove Scarlett home. At that
All She Needs Chapter 140 Once Again, You're Wrong
"Scarlett, as long as you wake up, I'll take back what I said just now!" Jonathan thought about it for a while before uttering those words, though he was unsure about the sincerity he put behind them.The woman on the couch stirred slightly, but she clearly had no intention of opening her eyes. Was that offer not tempting enough for her? Jonathan furrowed his brows and leaned closer, so close that he could smell the fragrance wafting from her body. Still, Scarlett showed no response. This was simply ridiculous.Jonathan frowned before an idea crossed his mind. He stood up suddenly and exclaimed in the direction of the door. "Dylan? How did you get in here? Did I not lock the door?""Dylan?" Scarlett shot up at once. She still couldn't entirely process what had happened earlier, but she knew instinctively that she had to give the man at the door any explanation at all. "Dylan, don't—I mean, this isn't what it looks like!"She'd just finished when she realized there was no one at the doo
All She Needs Chapter 141 She Really Was Naive
Jonathan nodded again. He was certain now that he'd been right all along. "I suppose, if I'm not mistaken, you only left the country six years ago because of me."Scarlett didn't try to hide it now that he'd guessed it. "I did," she admitted."I don't know what exactly it is that you're trying to run away from or what you're afraid of, but one thing I'm certain of is that you haven't succeeded in whatever you were trying to accomplish. Even now, six years later, you still have feelings for me. Admit it, Scarlett. In your heart, I'm still the one you yearn for, and you've been pretending otherwise all this time. Even though it's not completely love, hatred, or disgust—whatever it is—I still mean something to you. You have to admit that!"The finger he pointed directly at her heart made her chest clench. He was right. Every last word he spoke was true. She didn't like him, but she didn't hate him either. This man in front of her had completely and firmly occupied a place in her heart, an
All She Needs Chapter 142 The Truth Revealed
"Impossible!" Scarlett sighed softly. "He likes me! That's the only reason why I agreed—""He likes you?" Macy stared at her skeptically. "On what basis are you establishing your claim? It's his heart, his feelings.""A woman's intuition is never wrong, Macy!" Scarlett played with the straw in her drink. "All I have to do now is make him confess.""Scarlett, you're too arrogant!" Macy suppressed her anger, though she couldn't help but punch her friend once more. "You're basing an entire claim about where that man's heart lies solely on your intuition? That's too unreliable! I told you before that Jonathan isn't as simple as he appears to be. He has his own house out there, but he chose to move in with you anyway. He definitely has some kind of ulterior motive behind his actions.""That's why I said he's already fallen in love with me!" Scarlett concluded after Macy's long rant."Oh, you're hopeless." Macy blinked, holding back the urge to cry. Macy wanted nothing more than to tell her
All She Needs Chapter 143 You Lose
Scarlett couldn't wait any longer. She reached out and hooked her arms around his neck before inching closer toward his lips, her breath fanning his face. She looked so alluring now, as if she wanted nothing more than to melt against him, her body flush against his. "Just tell me already! As soon as you say it, I promise to let you live with me, for real this time—"Before she could finish, the door of the office swung open with a bang. Dylan glared at Jonathan, his gaze full of rage. Behind him, Macy stood guiltily.Scarlett glanced at them questioningly. Why would Dylan come here at this time?"You've gone too far, Jonathan!" Dylan growled.Jonathan looked at Dylan gleefully. He swept her into his embrace as he spoke: "She's the one who came here and told me that she loved me. What did I do now? If there's anyone to blame here, it's you for not keeping a better eye on your fiancée."Dylan rushed forward and pulled Scarlett away from Jonathan. "Don't you touch my fiancée with those fi
All She Needs Chapter 144 I Will Take Good Care Of You
Jonathan pointed at Macy. "So, it's true then? Everything she said?"Scarlett never turned to face him again. She could only nod."I guess I should be honored to have made the governor and renowned lawyer, Scarlett Langston, go to such lengths for me!" Jonathan laughed coldly.Scarlett could no longer hold back her tears. One by one, they trickled down her cheek as she thought to herself, "Please leave, Jonathan. Please leave. I can't do this any longer!"Macy, on the other hand, showed him no such mercy. "What nonsense are you still talking about? Can't you see how your presence here is affecting my family?"Jonathan pulled the door open and prepared to leave. "I hope you know that this is still my office! I'm going out to get some fresh air, but I'll be back in five minutes. When I get back, I don't wish to see anything here that's polluting the air I breathe in!" He left them with those cutting words before slamming the door heavily behind him.After Jonathan left, the entire office
All She Needs Chapter 145 Mr. Leonard Is Drunk
Dylan drank a few sips of water awkwardly, pretending like he hadn't heard anything.Dylan's awkwardness spurred Scarlett into action. Immediately, she made a move to lead Lucas outside. "Dylan, take care of yourself, okay? Rest well. I have some things I need to talk to Lucas about privately."Dylan nodded and gestured for Scarlett to leave. He could take care of himself just fine."Lucas, don't wander about like this anymore, especially in places like hospitals! Do you hear me?" Scarlett advised him earnestly."But why?""Because you're still a child! It's not safe for you to walk around unsupervised outside!" Scarlett explained.Lucas raised his head proudly. "Mommy, I'm not that stupid. I am a genius, you know.""You're so full of yourself!" Scarlett laughed at her son's antics."Mommy, you still haven't told me how Uncle Jonathan is doing yet!" Lucas, being the child prodigy he claimed he was, managed to steer the conversation back to the topic he was most concerned about, no matt
All She Needs Chapter 146 You Did Not Let Me Down
"The way I see it, you don't have to bother yourselves with canceling the contract signing. Just give me the documents!" Tristan glanced at his watch. "We still have less than five hours left. Let's not stand around wasting any more time!""I … " The secretary was still uncertain about what she was supposed to do.Tristan was getting impatient. "I'm serious! The clock is ticking, and this contract really is important! Don't worry, all of you; I will definitely not let this contract go to waste. After all, this is my family's company. I won't let you all down!""Alright then." The secretary glanced at the president's office after some contemplation and decided to hand the contract and the reports over to Tristan.A while later, Tristan left the office with the documents in hand, evidently pleased by the new turn of events."Mom! Our opportunity has landed in our laps!" Tristan called Phoebe the moment he left the company.Phoebe was taken aback by Tristan's sudden declaration. "What? W
