His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 703

“Don’t go…” Jonathan repeated, his voice raspy.

Niamh didn’t immediately pull away. She just looked at him, seeing the raw panic and jealousy swirling in his dark eyes. A sudden, sharp sense of retaliatory pleasure surged through her. Though she had never intended to use Elmer to get back at Jonathan, his jealous reaction was undeniably satisfying.

In the end, she left.

Jonathan’s hand closed on empty air. He sat on the edge of the bed, no longer feeling the pain in his stomach. The ache blooming in his chest had completely eclipsed it.

He closed his eyes, his mind flashing back to his wedding with Niamh. He had picked out the ring himself, choosing a style Marina liked. It was supposed to have been their wedding, yet he had never once let Niamh be a part of it.

“What have I done?” he muttered, a self-deprecating laugh escaping his lips.

Later, a dark grey Koenigsegg was parked across the street from the NR jewelry flagship store on Crestview Road. Jonathan slipped into the store, moving as quietly as possible to avoid drawing attention. Then he saw her. Niamh was there, just as Elmer had said, with Elmer standing right beside her.

The world seemed to tilt. Elmer had said Niamh was still considering his proposal. Niamh had said the same thing. So how had they jumped from ‘considering’ to picking out engagement rings? Jealousy gnawed at him.

“Sir, can I help you with…” a salesperson began, but Jonathan immediately put a finger to his lips, silencing her.
