Chapter 969
“I love both you and Felix. You’re both my precious ones,” Jonathan said.
Michael was delighted, snuggled up to Jonathan, and acted all sweet for a while.
Jonathan said to Felix, “Felix Johnston, be good and listen to Michael, alright?”
“Bad, Felix has the same last name as me. Why doesn’t he have your last name?” Michael asked.
“You both have your mom’s last name. Isn’t that great? Or do you want to take my last name instead?” Jonathan teased, half-joking.
Michael looked up and said, “I like the name Mom gave me.”
Jonathan pinched Michael’s nose. ‘What a clever little boy,’ he thought.
Teresa felt a warm glow in her heart. Mike was still her biggest supporter, always sticking by her side. She didn’t want to worry about what might happen with the kids in the future.
She just wanted to live in the moment, be there for her kids as they grew up, and do everything she could to protect the ones she loved.
They just packed up the stuff here and had the driver air-ship everything back. Anyway, there wasn’t much, and they already had everything over in Nareigh.
Jonathan went to settle all the bills. When Teresa saw the bill, it was a whopping eight million dollars.
Jonathan wasn’t even hesitant when he swiped his card, but Teresa felt like her heart was bleeding. “I’ve only stayed here for a few days, and it’s already over eight million dollars?” she blurted out in disbelief.
“For the hospital stay, the delivery, your care, and all the postpartum therapy. I want only the best for you,” Jonathan said.
Teresa knew that the equipment here was top-of-the-line. Even the chef had top-notch service and was super attentive.
She thought, ‘But seriously, blowing over eight million dollars in just a few days? If I stayed any longer, that’d be even more.’
“When we get back to Nareigh, I can just recover at Rosary Estates,” she suggested.
“No way,” Jonathan shot her down without a second thought. “You’re coming to my place. I’ve already got everything ready for you.”
“Let’s get going. We’re heading to the airport,” Jonathan said.
Soon, it was time to leave, and a Cullinan was already waiting at the door.
Jonathan had arranged a private jet so Teresa and the baby could travel comfortably and get plenty of rest.
On the way, Jonathan handed Teresa a car key. It was for a Rolls-Royce Spectre. “I had it custom-painted in purple just for you. Bet you’ll like that starlight headliner,” he said with a smile.
He also gave Teresa the keys to a Bentley and a villa in Strico, making sure she had everything she could ever want. “If Nareigh is too cold, you could always spend a few days in Strico,” Jonathan added thoughtfully.
Teresa was confused. ‘What’s with all these gifts?’ she thought.
“You had a premature birth this time, so think of this as me making it up to you. If you want anything else, just tell me,” Jonathan said.
Teresa didn’t even look up. “Just give it to your son instead.”
“It’s all the same whether it’s for our son or for you. Just take it,” Jonathan insisted.
Teresa decided she only needed one car, the Rolls-Royce Spectre. She didn’t want the Bentley. After all, she already had her Porsche in Nareigh, and there was no way she could drive that many cars at once.
Jonathan just nodded, telling her there was no need to feel embarrassed about taking things. Teresa figured she’d never ask for anything herself, but if he gave her something, she’d accept it without hesitation.
Just like Jonathan said, whether it was for her or for the kids, it all came down to the same thing. The kids would always be the bond that kept her and Jonathan connected for life.
Teresa twirled the key to the Spectre in her hand. “So, for having one kid, I get two cars and a villa. What if I have another one for you? What do I get then?”
“Are you serious?” Jonathan looked up at Teresa, a sly grin tugging at his lips. “If you give me a daughter, I’ll give you the whole family fortune.”
