Destined to Love You novel Chapter 145

Angelia was considering what present she would give to Jonathan.

At this moment, Claudia was chased out of a branded handbag shop.

Her expression was very unpleasant.

“What’s the big deal? Don’t look down upon others!”

She stood by the door cursing at the store attendant.

When she entered the shop a moment ago, the shop attendant didn’t serve her with a pleasant attitude when they realized who she was.

In the past, she could take whatever she wanted and settled the payment at the end of the month.

So when she saw a bag that she liked, she thought that she could take it like before but the attendant insisted that she should pay for it before she could leave with the bag.

Claudia’s credit card had long been frozen.

Under Jonathan’s constant barrage of suppressive actions, even the company’s assets were frozen.

Just within a matter of days, the status of the Hunk family had been on the decline daily.

She didn’t expect that even a lowly store attendant would dare to speak to her in that kind of attitude!

That was the high-end district of the city and when Claudia was chased out of the shop, it attracted numerous onlookers.

“Isn’t she the recently acknowledged daughter of the Hunk family? What happened to her?”

“Don’t come if you can’t afford it,

why put up the act?”

“The Hunk family isn’t like they were before. Someone else is more fortunate to be married to Jonathan. She helped Jonathan handle his family just after a few days. Tsk tsk tsk…”

“Isn’t it? She became a phoenix as soon as she got married with a royal family member. There is no comparison between them.”

Claudia was shaking in anger when she heard these sarcastic words.

“What nonsense are you spewing? I’m the actual Mrs. Miller! What the hell is she?”

They were startled by her and patted their chest in fright.

“She’s still daydreaming about this?”

“Not only wasn’t she able to make herself onto Jonathan’s bed, but she was also thrown out. Don't you have any shame?”

“You tried to snatch away your sister’s man. No wonder he would turn around and attack you.”

“You deserved it!”

Claudia stood up angrily.

“What the hell do you know? Shut the hell up!”

She pointed at the people in front of her.

“I’m the true Mrs. Miller! Only me!”

She shouted with bloodshot eyes, turned, and ran.

Few of them remained there and looked at each other curiously.

“She’s mad, isn’t she?”

Claudia threw a huge tantrum with Randall as soon as she returned home.

“Do you know what people are saying about me? I just wanted to buy something and was driven away by the store attendant!”

Randall was troubled by the company problems and had made several calls but no one was willing to loan them money to help with their cashflow.

Now with Claudia bickering beside him, he couldn’t endure it any further and slammed his hands on the table.

“Have you said enough? Who is to blame for this situation? Wasn’t it all because of you?”

This was the first time Claudia was scolded in this manner by Randall. She was so startled that she took a few steps backward.

Randall said furiously, “Stay at home and don’t go out. Don’t get into any further trouble!”

Then he sat down and looked at the financial reports.

“Had I known earlier, I wouldn’t have got you back.”

He said it very softly but was heard by Claudia.

She stared with her eyes wide open in disbelief at Randall.

Claudia clenched her fists and trembled in anger.

It’s all Angelia’s fault!

That slut!

There wouldn’t be so many problems without her!

She’s a dog in the manger, a fraud!

She clenched her teeth and dashed out of the room.

Angelia just came back from outside and she had the present in her hands.

As soon as she entered the castle, Steward saw the package in her hands and laughed, “Master doesn’t like to receive presents but I’m sure he’ll like anything that Missus gives.”

Angelia nodded shyly.

“I’ll go upstairs first. Please let me know when he comes back.”

It was already dark when Jonathan came home. The few days of suppressing the Hunks Enterprises had been effective and today they started to wrap things up.

He worked overtime for a while before coming home.

As soon as Jonathan entered the house, the dishes were still on the table and untouched.

“Where is she? Hasn’t she eaten?”

Steward laughed, “Missus is upstairs. I’ll go get her.”

“No need.”

Jonathan waved his hand and went up by himself.

Steward and Aurelia were both smiling away as they looked at his back view.

Aurelia said, “Perhaps in future Boss will forget about those things and accept his birthday.”

Steward nodded.

“Finally, Master has someone to accompany him after being alone for such a long time.”

Just as he finished, the bodyguard who was outside rushed in towards Steward.

“Claudia wants to come in.”

Steward frowned. This was such an auspicious day. How could they let her ruin it?

He waved his hand.

“No, drive her away.”

“Yes.”

The bodyguard turned and left.

Steward thought for a moment and was unsettled.

He’d better be more cautious after all those things that she had done to Master.

“I’ll go out to have a look.”

Upstairs, Jonathan pushed open the door and saw Angelia at the desk but did not know what she was doing.

The light cast warmly around her.

As soon as Jonathan saw her, all his predatory instincts of the business world dissipated immediately.

He smiled warmly with one corner of the mouth turned up as he walked quietly over to hug her.

“What are you doing?”

Angelia heard his voice and tried desperately to hide the things in her hands.

“You’re back.”

Jonathan kissed her as she turned around.

“Don’t wait for me next time. You should eat first.”

“Today’s different.”

Angelia wriggled out of his embrace and hid the present behind her.

“Yes?”

“Today’s your birthday.”

Jonathan frowned slightly when he heard it.

He looked at Angelia’s face and paused for a moment before he said, “I don’t have fond memories about my birthday.”

He paused and held Angelia’s face.

“But I’ll try to accept this for your sake.”

Angelia looked puzzled at him with these words.

What memories did Jonathan link to his birthday?

Why was it such a taboo for him?

If those were sorrowful memories, then she’ll help him turn them into happy ones.

Angelia smiled and led him out of the room.

“I have a present for you but I’ll give it to you after dinner.”

The two of them laughed as they descended to the living room and started to hear the commotion outside.

“What’s the matter?” Jonathan frowned and asked.

Aurelia looked anxiously and said, “Master, Steward has gone out to handle it. It should be settled soon.”

She didn’t want Jonathan to know that Claudia had come.

Just now as Master descended the staircase, it was the first time she had seen him smile on his birthday.

But before she could think any further, Claudia rushed in aggressively!
