Destined to Love You novel Chapter 144

Claudia frowned in anger.

“How could I have known? Jonathan isn’t human at all! He took so many drugs and still could endure its effects.”

Randall said in a deep voice, “It’s pointless to say these now. We’d better think carefully about how to explain to Jonathan.”

“Explain? What’s there to explain?”

Claudia turned her head and said angrily, “It's not a big thing. At the worse, I’ll expose everything. I’m his wife, what can he do about that?”

Daphne glared at her angrily about what she said.

“How dare you! He may skin you alive! And the entire Hunk family will be implicated!”

Randall looked at them quarreling and frowned in displeasure.

“The best solution now is to blame everything on Angelia. We have nothing to do with it.”

Claudia said furiously, “Of course I know.”

Chloe appeared as soon as Randall and Daphne left.

Claudia was unhappy when she saw him.

“What are you doing here? Didn’t I let you keep watch outside? Where were you?”

Chloe looked at Claudia with concern as he knew what had happened yesterday.

“Yesterday someone found that house and I went to settle him. But by the time I returned, they had already been here.”

“I’m not interested in your explanation!”

Claudia picked up the pillow and threw over, “What will others think of me now that they know this?”

Chloe stretched out his hands and tightly embraced Claudia.

“I won’t, to me you are still the best!”

“Really?”

Claudia asked in return, “But I’m worried about the future. What if Jonathan blames me? Will he suspect anything?”

“No, he won’t.” Chloe consoled and said, “I hit him unconscious. If he investigates, it will only lead to me.”

Claudia heard this and the load on her shoulders finally disappeared.

“Hmm. Then will you be alright? Should you lie low for a few days?”

Chloe was very touched to see her concern for him.

“I’ll always stay by your side. I won’t go anywhere.”

Claudia leaned onto Chloe’s chest.

This Chloe was useful.

Looks like she should not let him leave.

If Jonathan were to conduct an investigation, then she would blame everything on him.

On the second day, when Claudia was discharged from the hospital, she was sent to Jonathan’s castle instead of the Hunk residence.

She looked at Jonathan nervously.

“I don’t remember clearly what happened that night. I was knocked unconscious after you fainted. I was then brought to that room.”

Jonathan looked at her suspiciously.

Claudia said, “Jonathan, do you think that I will, as a woman, joke about these?”

After she said, she didn’t dare to look directly at Jonathan for fear that he would detect her motives.

Jonathan looked intently at her.

“My wife and Echo both said that someone impersonated both of them to write to each other to get them show up. How was it that you coincidentally saw them?”

“How do I know? What do I gain by doing these?”

Claudia stood up unhappily, “I’m the greatest victim. Don’t you know everyone outside now is saying about me? You know what? I’m even more anxious than you to find the perpetrator?”

Angelia walked down from the stairs as she was saying these.

She looked at Claudia with a heavy heart.

Jonathan stood up and walked over as soon as he saw Angelia. His hands wrapped around her waist and held onto her.

“Why did you come down?”

“I’m here to see my distant cousin.” Angelia looked at Claudia.

“You lost consciousness after Jonathan. So, you should have seen how that person looked!”

Claudia smirked but her eyes didn’t reveal anything.

“Everything happened so quickly and I was in a daze and then I was knocked unconscious.”

“Really?”

Angelia asked calmly, “I actually suspect someone.”

“Who?”

“When the orphanage was burnt down, I met Angela and saw someone else. I can still remember his looks.”

Claudia’s eyes squinted and then laughed, “These are two separate matters. How can you talk about them together? Why are you so concerned over the orphanage? How come I don’t remember that you were involved with the orphanage?”

Angelia calmly said, “I’m only suspicious. Once the police are here, I’ll hand them the sketch and let them make the judgment.”

Claudia ground her teeth and said, “Really? Then I hope that he’ll be found soon.”

She looked at Angelia and stood up, “I’ll leave if there isn’t anything else.”

She left in a hurry thereafter.

Angelia raised her eyebrows as she looked at her back.

She was certain that Claudia was involved in this kidnapping!

“You suspect her?” Jonathan asked.

Angelia nodded.

Jonathan placed his hand on her waist and looked inquisitively at Angelia’s eyes.

On the second day, a message was sent by the M.I. group.

Just a few hours after Jonathan went back to work, a series of orders were issued.

Among them, the one that deserved the most consideration was the suppression of the Hunks Enterprises.

Although Jonathan didn’t say it out, when series of orders were considered in totality, the picture became obvious.

In the past when Jonathan married the daughter of the Hunk family, the company staff thought that Jonathan would quickly take his revenge.

Things took an unexpected turn thereafter. Not only did he not take revenge, due to Mrs. Miller, but there were also some changes between the M.I. Group and Hunks Enterprises.

It was expected that the relationship between the two companies would improve but because of what happened in the last two days, things deteriorated completely.

Many were not surprised about it and actually applauded.

Thus, a series of actions to suppress the Hunks Enterprises began.

Within a week, the Hunks Enterprises started to crumble.

Additionally, with various sorts of pressures, the investigations into the kidnapping were progressing swiftly.

Even Claudia was summoned for interrogation several times.

In less than a week, the entire Hunks Enterprises crumbled and many stood by the side to view its downfall.

Under Jonathan’s instructions, no one revealed these to Angelia.

Angelia sat in the garden and changed the layout of the entire garden as if it was rearranged to suit her mood.

She looked suspiciously at the surroundings and saw Steward and Aurelia were both in a good mood.

“Why are you so happy?”

Steward turned around and was smiling from ear to ear.

“It’s almost Master’s birthday.”

Aurelia continued, “Although the master doesn’t mention it and instructed us not to treat it specially, but each year around this time we would spruce up the place. Even if it’s not to celebrate his birthday, we can’t treat it as a non-event.”

Angelia looked around and no wonder the entire castle seemed to be joyous.

But what should she give to Jonathan for his birthday?
