His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 454

Jonathan made it sound like it was nothing.

Niamh glanced down at her arm, still firmly gripped in his hand.

“Is this what you call an invitation, Mr. Thomas?”

For a brief moment, Jonathan’s fingers loosened.

But he still didn’t let her go.

He couldn’t explain it, but right now, he had the uneasy feeling that if he let go, he might never be able to hold on to her again.

“Mr. Thomas!”

The door to the records room suddenly swung open.

“Your father’s on the phone—he says you have to come back to the house immediately!”

The office manager blurted out the message, only realizing a second too late that Jonathan and Niamh were in the middle of a tense standoff.

“Oh—sorry, I’m so sorry… But your father…”

He stammered, looking utterly flustered.

From the look on Jonathan’s face, it was clear he didn’t appreciate the interruption.

Niamh guessed that for Sprague to be this anxious to find Jonathan, it probably had something to do with the Quinn family.

And she knew Carlisle was already in Aldenville.

Judging by all this, Carlisle wasn’t the only one in town.

Jonathan pulled Niamh out of the records room and into his executive office.

“Aren’t you going to your father’s house to see Ramona?”

“Are you that interested in Ramona?”

Jonathan’s retort caught Niamh off guard.

She met his gaze, searching his eyes.

There was a sly, probing glint in Jonathan’s expression—he was clearly suspicious.

Niamh figured he’d gotten the wrong idea, but instead of correcting him, she smiled gently.

“Yes, I care very much.”

She cared about whether Jonathan and Ramona would actually go through with their business arrangement. If they did, it would be a devastating blow to Marina.
