Chapter 43


    “You want a house for your grandpa?” Jonathan asked again.


    Estelle didn’t say anything, they were too close, and she could hardly breathe.


    At this moment, she felt like she saw Jonathan’s devilish side.


    Jonathan bent down and kissed her lips lightly, and then let go, his voice was husky and deep, “I’m a


    businessman, I don’t make losing deals, a house for one night, I’m at a loss.”


    The man exuded an air of tenderness andposure, but upon closer observation, his eyes betrayed


    a profound sense of indifference and coldness.


    Estelle didn’t eatst night and had been exercising for so long. Her amino acids werecking, and her


    brain couldn’t function properly, so she was confused.


    She didn’t quite understand what he meant, “What are you trying to say?”


    Jonathan stared at her, “Did you have funst night?”


    Estelle took a breath, her hands under the nket were sweaty.


    “This house is close to the University of J City. If you live here and have ss at 8:30 in the morning,


    you can still sleep until 8:15. After this housepletely belongs to you, you can even bring your


    grandpa over,” Jonathan said calmly.


    Smart people don’t need to say things too bluntly.


    Estelle’s eyes widened in slight surprise. “You want me to be your mistress?” she repeated, taken


    aback.


    Jonathan’s expression remained stoic. “Isn’t that what you desire?” he replied.


    Estelle gazed at him, then suddenly turned her head and burst intoughter.


    The more she thought about it, the more funny she found it was. Shey down on the soft bed, buried


    her head in the nket, andughed, her shoulders trembling.


    “What are youughing about?” Jonathan asked.


    Estelley on the nket, turned her head to look at Jonathan, her eyes filled with tears fromughing,


    sparkling. After a while, she calmed down and said softly, Jonathan, you’re at a huge loss! With your


    looks and figure, you’re losing out even if you sleep with a woman for free, let alone give her a house.


    Are you sure you’re a shrewd businessman?”


    Jonathan’s countenance remained unchanged, yet his eyes grew colder and deeper. “What do you


    mean?” he questioned, his tone tinged with suspicion.


    Was she mocking him?


    Estelleughed again, then sat up on the bed, facing him, “You’re right, I had a great timest night,


    and we don’t owe each other anything. But the part about me sleeping until 8:15 really tempts me, so I


    ept your proposal. However…”


    She looked around the room, “If you rent this house, it would be about 30,000 to 40,000 a month, right?


    I only want to rent this room, and I’m still a poor student, so how about I give you 5,000 a month for


    rent?”


    Sheughed and leaned closer to him, “As for the rest, we do what we need. When youe, if I


    agree, we can have fun just like we didst night.”


    Magdalen said to enjoy life timely, she used to scoff at it, but now she thinks it’s right, because the


    experience with this man twice made her happy, and she might consider having it long-term.


    This should have been her rightful marriage.


    Besides, this house close to the University of J City does tempt her.


    So, in an instant, she made this decision.


    Jonathan met Estelle’s gaze with a prating stare, his own eyes narrowing as he questioned her


    with a hint of skepticism, “Are you absolutely certain?”


    Estelle was very calm, “Yes, if you agree to charge only 5,000 for rent.”


    Jonathan got up, regaining his elegant and indifferent appearance, looking down at her, “If you were a


    hunter, you’d be a good one.”


    Estelle maintained a calm demeanor as she responded, “Rest assured, I have no intention of ying


    the role of a helpless victim.”


    Jonathan’s gaze remained fixed on her, and after a prolonged moment, he mustered a smile that


    concealed any trace of emotion. “Very well, let’s keep it lighthearted and focused on enjoying


    ourselves. Money and emotions need not enter the equation.”


    Though he couldn’t fully decipher her, it didn’t hinder the mutual satisfaction they found in each other’s


    With the marriage agreement dissolved, he could have a partner.


    He thought, someday he would find out what she really wanted.


    Estelle thought for a moment, and smiled faintly, “If we find someone we like, we’ll tell each other


    honestly and end it peacefully.”


    “No problem.” Jonathan nodded slowly, nced at his watch, “It’s Monday today, I have a meeting in


    the morning, I have to go now. Someone will bring clothes for youter. I don’te to this house very


    often, you can use any room except for the master bedroom and my study.”


    Estelle kept a shallow smile, “I really got a bargain, thank you for your generosity.”


    Jonathan nced at her with a half-smile, walked out and closed the door for her.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.
