All She Needs Chapter 174 I'll Take You Home After We're Done
For the sake of his own safety, Lucas decided that he was going to keep his guard up around Jonathan. After all, Jonathan wasn't beneath kidnapping Lucas and using him as a hostage to force Scarlett to return to Atville."What are you talking about? It's not like I'm with you from dusk until dawn. I just didn't want your mom to be worried about you. That's why I've been picking you up and dropping you off at school every day. Also, Lucas, I'm your father. So, you can't keep calling me 'Uncle Jonathan', okay? You have to call me 'dad'!" Jonathan said seriously. He'd decided that he was going to officially marry Scarlett once they got back to Atville and announce to the world that Lucas was his son. Then no one would ever be able to bully Scarlett and Lucas anymore."I still don't know if you're my actual dad, so I won't call you that. If you marry my mommy, then I'll call you 'Dad'. However, if she doesn't agree to marry you, I won't consider you my dad." Lucas wasn't about to fall fo
All She Needs Chapter 175 Are You Happy That They're All Gossiping About Me?
But Jonathan didn't think it worked that way. In his mind, Lucas was his woman's son, so he thought Lucas should use whatever Jonathan had as well."Alright, alright, go play then. Didn't you say you liked coming to the amusement park? Next time, we'll bring your mommy here too. The three of us can play together as a family." Jonathan took Lucas' hands and headed toward the amusement park.There were many parents with their kids in the amusement park. Various couples were there as well, all of them looking happy and fulfilled. Jonathan suddenly realized how much familial affection could be found in amusement parks, of all places. Perhaps his plan to purchase a whole amusement park hadn't been as far-fetched as he'd initially thought.Lucas, on the other hand, thought that Jonathan's idea had been nothing but a spur-of-the moment thought and that he would give it up soon enough. Little did he know Jonathan planned on taking action as soon as he had the time to. Despite the crowd, the ap
All She Needs Chapter 176 Are You Worried About Me?
"Alright, go wash your hands and come eat," Scarlett finally said as Jonathan led Lucas in to wash his hands.As the three of them sat around the table, Jonathan felt, deep in his heart, the warmth of what it meant to be a family. He'd never realized how wholesome and content it would make him to sit down together—just the three of them—even if it was for nothing but a simple meal. Above all, since Scarlett had cooked everything herself, it made him feel even warmer. Jonathan thought he had to be the luckiest man alive at that moment."When did you learn to cook, Scar?" Jonathan couldn't help but ask. One taste of her cooking stirred his interest at once. They weren't half bad—in fact, they were actually really good, and Jonathan was curious about how her culinary skills had improved so dramatically in such a short period of time."Why? Do you have any complaints about it?" Scarlett huffed. After practicing diligently for the past month, she'd expected something more than the appreciat
All She Needs Chapter 177 Are You Willing to Let Me Stay?
Scarlett looked at the man who'd emerged from the fitting room, a surge of unfamiliarity filling her. In the past, her recollections of Jonathan had always been of him in a suit, as opposed to the casual outfit he was now dressed in. Scarlett couldn't seem to wrap her head around this new version of him. Still, not even that could stop her from staring at his handsome profile as she contemplated the way those clothes made him look like he was still in his early 20s."Wow, you look so handsome, Uncle Jonathan!" Lucas surveyed Jonathan's outfit, his eyes lighting up with excitement. He didn't know Jonathan could ever look like this—perhaps it was all thanks to his skincare routine, or perhaps the clothes he had on simply complimented his looks perfectly. Regardless, at that moment, Jonathan didn't look like the president of a large company. Quite the contrary, he looked like a dazzling star on stage, basking in the attention of the adoring crowd."What do you think, Scar?" Jonathan could
All She Needs Chapter 178 Why Do You Even Feel Sorry for Him?
Scarlett burst out laughing upon hearing his words. Eventually, she took a few bags from the poor man. As for Lucas, he shook his head as he walked alongside the two. The way the two of them were interacting now resembled the scenes in his soap operas—not that they could be considered a couple yet. His mother was careful to keep Uncle Jonathan at arm's length. Lucas couldn't quite describe them as friends either. No single male and female would stick together all day, every day, and still remain platonic. At the end of the day, he had no idea how he was supposed to describe them, so he could only try his best to accommodate their decisions at present. To him, Uncle Jonathan was a decent enough person if one overlooked his vanity and overbearing self-righteousness. If Jonathan ended up with his mommy, perhaps everything would work out after all.After buying a bunch of things together, Jonathan finally experienced what it was like to spend a normal day with family. When he was a child,
All She Needs Chapter 179 I Can't Convince You
"Scar! Scar! Lucas!" His shouts yielded no response. Jonathan searched the entire house more than once, but to no avail. Not even the exterior of the house gave him a single clue toward where Scarlett and Lucas could've gone. He was starting to get more and more worried as time passed. His first thought was that Scarlett must have taken Lucas and disappeared again. Not only that, but he thought she would definitely have gone much further this time, and she wasn't coming back to him ever again. A surge of frustration and despair filled his heart. It was a desolate kind of emptiness that seized him, one he'd never felt before in his life.Jonathan squatted on the ground, his mind blank. He didn't know what he was doing. The only constant that remained was that persistent voice in his head."Scar is gone … She left you …"He remained in the same position even as Scarlett rushed home shortly after. The sight that greeted her was that of a man clad in his pajamas on his knees in front of t
All She Needs Chapter 180 I Missed You
Azure Blooms was faced with a shortage of flowers, so a lot of customers weren't able to purchase the flowers they'd come for that day. However, upon entering the store, they were not only greeted by the sight of the graciously beautiful store owner but also by the attractive man who stood by her side. Because of that, a lot of young women flocked to the store that day, lingering around if only to catch a few more glimpses of Jonathan. Much to their chagrin, the man's gaze remained fixed on Scarlett, completely ignoring the other women in the store.Scarlett was amused by the group of besotted girls who'd entered just to get a closer look at Jonathan. She had to admit that Jonathan was rather good-looking, but that didn't justify the idiotic behaviors of the girls, who didn't even bother to buy a flower or two despite crowding the shop with their infatuation.As Scarlett was still contemplating the matter, an unexpected guest arrived at the shop.Monica was still as heavily made-up as
All She Needs Chapter 181 Go Back With Me
"I'm not. We'll pack our things tonight and leave first thing tomorrow," Scarlett decided resolutely."Okay." Jonathan was beyond ecstatic upon hearing Scarlett's reply. He'd never imagined things to have gone so smoothly. He was fully prepared to stay in Crayton for ten days, or perhaps a month, but it seemed that he no longer had to.Contrary to his initial belief, Monica's arrival had indeed done him a great favor.Scarlett decided that she'd close the shop earlier than usual today. She even put up a notice stating that the shop would remain closed indefinitely. She thought it wouldn't be long before she could return to her business here in Crayton. Little did she know that even after time had passed, she would not once find herself coming remotely close to returning to the town.As for Lucas, Scarlett couldn't help but feel guilty for making him move again. She knew that constant changes in his environment would jeopardize his growth above all else, but try as she might, she couldn

All She Needs Chapter 393 Warmth
Scarlett knew there was no real solution to the problem between her and Jonathan. The both of them were just choosing to ignore what had happened between them.There was nothing left for them to do to fix what had been broken.Until now, she still felt as if she was in a dream. Was she really married to Jonathan? Was she really living with him in such a lavish house? She found it hard to wrap her mind around it because it was all so surreal.The warm water in the tub sloshed gently over her body, and she felt her eyelids droop. These few days have been tough, and she hadn't been able to sleep well. All she wanted to do was fall asleep in this tub. If she were any less rational than she was right now, she probably would've just fallen asleep in the tub.Scarlett changed into a simple set of pajamas after her bath, completely ignoring the sexy lingerie set that Jonathan had picked out for her. She could probably wear that lingerie set if she were alone but she couldn't possibly w
All She Needs Chapter 392 Disbelief
Jonathan's tone was loving and teasing, and she was immediately transported back to the carefree times she had spent with Jonathan at university. Back then, they didn't have much to worry about and could just enjoy dating each other without reality holding them back."Have you had breakfast? I'm making breakfast right now. Do you want some?" Scarlett asked."No, thank you. I don't like eating in the morning. You can go ahead and enjoy your breakfast," Jonathan replied. Jonathan never got into the habit of eating breakfast; after he went overseas, he had less reason to have breakfast. As such, he never ate breakfast anymore. After Scarlett had finished her food, Jonathan drove them to city hall to sign the necessary documents for their marriage.The entire time, Scarlett felt as if she were in a dream. Everything that was happening seemed so surrea. The absurdity of the events and the fact that she had not slept well in two days only made her more dazed. Scarlett hadn't realize
All She Needs Chapter 391 The First Night
Scarlett immediately understood what he was trying to say and bashfully lowered her gaze. Since when had he become so sleazy? Going overseas had done nothing to teach him to be a better man. Scarlett didn't know how to answer him, so she stared silently at the ground. Suddenly, she thought of something and raised her head to say, "Jonathan, I have to tell you something. I can marry you, but you must promise me one thing. We won't have a wedding ceremony."Jonathan was upset by that suggestion, and he huffed, "What? No ceremony? Are you planning on just getting married in secret? Is it that embarrassing to be married to me? Is that why you don't want a ceremony? If you don't want to marry me, just tell me! You don't have to do all this to show how reluctant you are to marry me!" Jonathan had no idea what was going on in her head. What woman would outright refuse to have a wedding ceremony? Any woman would love to have a grand ceremony to celebrate her marriage, but now that Sca
All She Needs Chapter 390 Numb
Just then, Scarlett heard someone call her name from behind her, "Scarlett?"Scarlett turned in confusion and realized that it was the school counselor. She never expected to see him here, and her heart was filled with warmth at the sight of him. She hadn't seen him since graduating, so she didn't think he would still remember her. She hastily wiped the tears from her face before greeting him with a brilliant smile, "Mr. Brown! Why are you here?""I had nothing to do today, so I thought I would drop by to play basketball. How's work? Why aren't you here with Jonathan? I can't believe it's been a year already. Time really flies … I still remember when Jonathan would play basketball, and you would cheer for him from the sidelines. I miss all of you, so come by with Jonathan next time! By the way, don't forget to send me a wedding invitation when both of you get married. After all, I've got my eye on both of you, and I'm sure you will end up together. I remember how nice Jonathan trea
All She Needs Chapter 389 Everything Has Changed
"Hey! What are you doing? Are you going home now?" Scarlett asked."Of course! Where else would I go? Didn't we just break up? Why are you calling me again? Don't tell me that you miss me already!" Teresa's voice which was filled with glee, came from the other end of the receiver. Hearing her voice made Scarlett feel much better than before, but Scarlett was worried that she would no longer be so happy after Scarlett tells her the truth. She didn't want her problems to affect the lives of those around her. Since she made a mistake, she would be the one to bear responsibility, and no one else should have to suffer because of her … especially not her best friend.Scarlett hesitated before asking, " Teresa, do you like your job?""What's not to like? I love it! Being a teacher is my dream! My students are obedient and understanding. My job also gives me a sense of accomplishment! Why are you asking me this now? I've told you before that my dream is to be one of the best teachers in
All She Needs Chapter 388 Lingering Feelings
As she spoke, Scarlett attempted to push Jonathan away, but he was too strong. She couldn't fight back at all. She felt like a fragile child in front of Jonathan, and he could crush her into pieces with just a little force. Jonathan leaned in and whispered coldly, "Do you think I’m still as compliant as before, allowing you to push me away repeatedly? Let me tell you, I’m not the same. How well do you think you know me? Let me make it clear, I will get what I want, including you!" Scarlett sensed the threat in Jonathan's words and looked at this unfamiliar man with some caution. She asked cautiously, "Jonathan, are you threatening me? What exactly do you mean? Why don't you just tell me instead of playing games? My time is not free, so let me go if you won't talk. I still have to work tomorrow." Scarlett was truly exhausted at this moment. Listening to her colleagues discuss Jonathan in the office had already put her on edge. After work, she spent so much time walking aroun
All She Needs Chapter 387 Threats
Jonathan did not take her comments to heart and continued coldly, "You came home quite late, Scarlett. It seems like you've learned to enjoy life more now, huh? Weren't you just a bookworm before? Why are you so late today? You've changed a lot after starting work and made more friends, huh? Tell me, who were you out having dinner with just now? A colleague? Your boss? Or is it your boyfriend? Whoever it is, it seems like he takes good care of you, and since you were having so much fun with him, why bother coming back home in the evening?" Scarlett could hardly believe the cruel words that came from his mouth. When did Jonathan become so heartless? Although he could be a bit carefree before, he would never say such things to her. In Scarlett's eyes, Jonathan had always been gentle and caring, completely different from the person uttering these words now. Scarlett felt infuriated and couldn't help defending herself, "It's not what you think! I was just having a cup of coffee with
All She Needs Chapter 386 It's Been Awhile
The two best friends chatted, and before they knew it, time had passed as they enjoyed their coffee. Soon, night fell, and the sky that was once adorned with the setting sun was now full of twinkling stars. It was beautiful, but it also reminded Scarlett of the day she parted ways with Jonathan. That day was just like today, a beautiful night with bright stars. However, things had changed, and she could never sit here and talk with Jonathan as she did that day. Teressa noticed the shift in mood from across the table. After hesitating, Teresa couldn't help but speak up, "Scarlett, Jonathan ... He's coming back soon." Teresa didn’t know the details of Scarlett and Jonathan’s relationship, but she knew they went on a trip together during their final year while everyone was looking for internships. It was quite sudden since Scarlett barely hung out with Jonathan. Then, there were rumors that they were dating, but Jonathan went abroad to study soon after, and Scarlett never menti
All She Needs Chapter 385 Broken-hearted
Scarlett sighed heavily at these words. “Yeah, there’s no way our small magazine can get an interview with the great Jonathan Leonard. Only those major news outlets have the qualifications for that. It’s his first time returning to the country after going abroad, so this is big news. The media would be busy with this, but it’s certainly not for us to handle.” Just then, the editor-in-chief of the office suddenly appeared. He must have overheard their discussions outside and sternly said, “Am I paying you to gossip around? You’re all good for nothing. You’re all itching to gossip now that I’ve eased up on you?” Once he roared, everyone fell silent. They either looked down at their computers or pretended to be busy with their work. No one responded to him. Who dared to oppose the editor? His words were final. However, Scarlett, who had always disliked this editor, felt grateful to him at this moment. She thanked him silently for saving her from her colleague’s gossiping. This wa
