Chapter 1402 I Understand Now

• Jonathan's expression hardened, his gaze somewhat cold. “Firstly, this question is unreasonable. Secondly, my sister would never make such a demand. Lastly, even if she did, I would agree because our family owes her a lot. But we owe you nothing. So, just because I'm willing to agree with my sister doesn't mean I have to agree with you.”
• “I understand,” Stella said, her voice choked with emotion as she managed a wistful smile. “So, even after all this time we've spent together, I still can't compare to your sister in your heart! If your sister is the most important person in your life, then why do you still need a girlfriend, let alone get married?”
• Jonathan shook his head, feeling a bit of a headache as he said, “The most important person in my life isn't my sister. She's just one of the most important people in my life! The most important people in my life are also my parents, my younger brothers, and my nephews! I confess, at the moment, you don't hold as high a place in my heart as they do. But just because you aren't as important to me now, doesn't mean you'll always be less important than them. Feelings often develop over time spent together. We've been with each other for a while now, and perhaps there will come a day when your place in my heart surpasses theirs. Then, I'd be willing to do anything for you.”
