Chapter: 598
But before she could catch her breath, Jonathan suddenly whirled her around, cupped her cheeks firmly with both hands, and then pressed his lips against hers.

The kiss was intense and fervent from the start, with no tenderness, just possessive and all-conquering.

It wasn't a kiss; it was punishment!

As for who was being punished-Jonathan or Bethany-no one could tell.

Initially, Bethany was too stunned to move. When she finally reacted, she started pushing him away, but she was no match for Jonathan, who stood as firmly as a concrete wall.

“Hmm... Jon... Stop..."

With his Lips tightly sealing hers, she could barely get a word out.

When she saw that hitting him with her fists was useless, she bit down on his lips in desperation.

Soon, the metallic taste of blood filled their mouths.

Bethany couldn't bring herself to bite Jonathan again. Once she tasted the blood, she just couldn't continue.

It wasn't until Jayson ran over and punched Jonathan on the shoulder that they were pulled apart.

Jonathan staggered to a stop. Jayson, overwhelmed with anger and losing control, was ready to attack Jonathan again.

Seeing this, Bethany quickly intervened to stop Jayson.

"No, Jayson! Stop!"

He paused and Looked up at Bethany.

Her lips were bright red, stained with blood. It was evident the encounter had been intense.

Clearly, Jonathan had provoked the situation intentionally.

"Bethany, he harassed you!"

"No, it's not what it looks like! Jayson, go back to the car. I'll join you soon!"

Bethany didn't want them to engage in a real fight, knowing Jayson was no match for Jonathan in terms of physical strength or social standing.

"Bethany!" Jayson glared at Jonathan, who stood a short distance away from Bethany, his anger evident.

Jonathan wiped the blood from his lips using his fingers, meeting Jayson's gaze with a confident smirk, as if he already knew he had won.

“Jayson, can we discuss this later? We have an appointment at B7 today, and we can't afford any delays in our work! Let's talk later!"

Bethany's main concern was the potential delay in recovering video surveillance and the risk of Jonathan harming Jayson.
