The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 31

“In the Hamilton family’s eyes, I made Melanie die,” Rosalie responded after a while. However, she had never thought that some people’s hearts would be so cruel before Yvette gave out an order to pull out Rosalie’s nails in prison back then.

“I think Yvette is more delighted that you gave up on your position than her sister’s death.” Lillian’s anger had not yet subsided. “When you were sentenced to prison, Yvette and Zachary got together in less than a month. I won’t believe it if someone tells me Yvette did not have feelings for Zachary before.”

“This shows that the feelings between Zachary and I were nothing special back then, but it’s good to have a clear realization about someone,” Rosalie said with a smile.

“Yeah. A man like Zachary is not worthy to love at all.” Lillian paused for a while after saying that, seemingly remembering something else. “By the way, how are you getting along with your new “little brother“? Are you really going to keep living together with him?”

“Yeah.” Rosalie nodded. “If Jon’s willing to live with me, that would be the best.”

“Outsiders will think you two are in a relationship and living together.” Then, Lillian asked worriedly, “What about him? Did he do anything inappropriate to you?”

“No, he didn’t.” Somehow, the image of the pair of beautiful eyes came to her mind, and her heartbeat suddenly turned faster again when Rosalie thought about the eyes staring closely at her.

“Hey, you…” Lillian saw the blush on Rosalie’s face and could not help but feel surprised. “Don’t tell me you have fallen in love with him.”

“That’s not true,” Rosalie denied. “Lillian, you know I’ve been through so many things. Even when I was in prison… I’m not going to fall in love with anyone ever.”

Mentioning the things that happened in prison, Lillian also had her face darkened. “Rosalie, maybe we can find a doctor again. You can still…” “No need for that. Since I’m not planning to marry anyone in my life, there is no point visiting a doctor, Rosalie replied. When she was in prison, her uterus ruptured after being beaten up. Although her uterus. was cured after an operation, it would be much more dangerous than

ordinary people to get pregnant in the future. Even the doctor once advised her not to get pregnant.

Perhaps, she would never get to have her own child in this life.

Yet, if she really gave birth to a child, she was afraid that the child would end up suffering with her.

Lillian felt heartbroken for her friend but did not know the way to

comfort her, so she could only change the topic. “By the way, your “little brother” is still a stranger before. You should try your best to understand him as much as possible so as not to get fooled.”

“Got it,” Rosalie replied. “But even if I don’t know much about Jon, there is one thing that I’m sure of. Jon will never harm me no matter what happens.”

Lillian looked at the faint smile that tugged at the corner of Rosalie’s lips when Jon was mentioned, thinking the smile was really pretty.

She thought, “It seems that Jon is not that useless after all!”

Yvette had been soaking in the Youngblood residence’s pond for almost a whole night before she finally found Jonathan’s ring.

She almost collapsed and even went to the hospital to get an IV drip. Of course, she did not forget to ask her manager to take photos and post them online for sympathy when she was in the hospital to get the IV drip.

After the incident, Yvette held a press conference with her sick body. She apologized in public at the press conference, saying that she cherished the ring because it was gifted by her boyfriend, Zachary. That day, she thought she had worn the ring when she left her house. When she was outside, her friend reminded her that she did not have the ring in her hand, so Yvette thought she lost it.

Therefore, due to the sudden urgency, Yvette asked for help to find the ring despite not wearing it.

She confessed, “I apologize for my actions. Due to my carelessness, I made so many sanitary workers help me to search for the ring. I, on the other hand, stood aside and did not look for the ring together. I’ve come to deeply realize my mistakes.”

Yvette apologized sincerely and even bowed and bent over, causing her to look on the verge of collapse, which earned her many sympathy votes. After a pause, she continued, “I will go to the Environment and

Sanitation Administration to express my sincere thanks to those sanitary workers who helped me find the ring. I will also donate all of the income this year from my work to open a charity breakfast stall. The sanitary workers can get a free breakfast every day by showing their work permits.”

Once the video of the press conference was broadcast online, many people thought that Yvette had handled the crisis well. Even her fans kept uploading posts to help Yvette get a good impression on the

netizens.

As a result, many people really thought the whole incident was a misunderstanding.

Yvette’s gratitude to the Environment and Sanitation Administration also gained a lot of attention, and even many reporters arrived to cover the

news.

The director of the Environment and Sanitation Administration would arrange for the sanitary workers who helped to search for the ring that day to shake hands with Yvette one by one and receive the gratitude gifts. from her.

Yulissa delightedly took the gift. In addition to a monetary gift of 100 dollars in the gift, there was also a down jacket that cost more than 200 dollars according to the label.

“Rosalie, why don’t you go forward and get a gift?” Yulissa asked when she looked at Rosalie sitting alone in a chair.

“I don’t need it,” Rosalie replied with a smile.

“This down jacket costs more than 200 dollars and the monetary gift of 100 dollars is almost one– quarter of our salary! Why don’t you want it?” Yulissa persuaded Rosalie.

Rosalie shook her head instead.

“Rosalie, all you need to do is just walk there and leave after taking the gift.” With that, Yulissa pulled Rosalie and walked outside.

“It’s okay, Yulissa. I really don’t need it,” Rosalie replied.

However, before she could release herself from Yulissa’s hand, Rosalie was already pulled outside.

“There’s one more person who hasn’t received the gift!” Yulissa shouted.

Immediately, the reporters aimed their cameras at Rosalie again. Rosalie almost subconsciously blocked her face from the cameras with her hand. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

These cameras reminded her of the time when she was frantically captured by the media’s cameras outside the courtroom. Those reporters were holding microphones and constantly trying to interview her.

On the other hand, Rosalie saw Zachary standing outside the camera at

that time.

When Rosalie was in prison three years ago, that man stood still coldly. When Yvette said she wanted to break Rosalie’s hand, he looked down at Rosalie’s fingers stained with blood and said an “okay” in a cold tone.

When Rosalie was almost suffocated by torture three years later in the club, Zachary also responded lightly with an “okay” after Yvette mentioned leaving to meet Jonathan’s appointment.

Some things, even after three years, would remain the same.

Rosalie let go of her past and felt slightly relieved in her heart.

Zachary was a little stunned when he saw Rosalie. After all, compared with their previous meeting under such circumstances, he could clearly observe her more carefully this time.
