The Ceo’s Convict Wife - Season 3 Episode 62

“I have experienced a lot of criticism and can just ignore it. But what about him?” Rosalie was a little uncertain at that thought.

“What’s the matter? Do you not want to go?” Jonathan asked with a frown.

“Am I really the suitable person to go?” Rosalie took a deep breath and gazed up. “Jon, if I attend the banquet with you, many people may recognize me. Back then, when I was with Zachary, I also met many people. Besides, I had been in jail. before…

“So what? For me, you’re the most suitable person. It doesn’t matter if you have been in jail or if someone may recognize you.” Jonathan was not bothered.

As he spoke, he held her hand and placed it toward his lips, kissing it softly. “Rosie, I was like a vagrant in the street back then, and you picked me up regardless of who I was. Did you ever think of whether it was appropriate at that time? In that case, no matter if you are a princess or beggar, I want you to stand by my side openly.”

He planted a kiss on her palm. A tingling sensation slowly spread from her fingers into her heart.

Slowly, he raised his eyes and stared at her intently. “Besides, you are going to stand beside me for the rest of your life. If you’re worried now, what about the future? When will you stand by my side with peace of mind? Do I really have to wait until the day when you turn over the case?”

Rosalie was stunned by his words.

“Rosie, I don’t care if you turn over the case. I only care about you. You are my loved one, so you’re the most suitable person to stand beside me,” Jonathan added.

Rosalie pursed her lips and finally agreed, “All right. I’ll go with you.”

No matter what she would face at the banquet, she was willing to accompany him because she loved him as well. Since he was not afraid of gossip, there was nothing she had to fear either.

“That’s the deal.” He slightly hooked her chin with his fingers and slowly leaned toward her.

She immediately understood what he was going to do and raised her chin obediently, feeling his lips pressing against hers.

His kiss was so gentle and reassuring…

Meanwhile, in the Xanthos residence, Zachary looked at his wife in puzzlement and asked, “Why did your family demolish the mall suddenly? There’s a lot of money invested in this mall, and it’s operating well. What are your family demolishing it for? No matter what the new project is, there’s no way it can make more money than this mall.”

Yvette’s face fell at the mention of the mall. She was aware that the mall was profitable and that the demolition would be a big blow to the Hamilton family. However, it was necessary to do that to save the Hamilton family.

Otherwise, her family would lose more than a mall like this.

“Jonathan wants to demolish it. Do you want the Hamilton family to stop him?” Yvette said.

“What’s going on? Why did Jonathan want to demolish your family’s mall?” Zachary was confused.

“It’s all thanks to your ex-girlfriend,” Yvette replied.

“Rosalie?” Zachary was stunned and remembered that the Xanthos family had almost been in bad luck because of Rosalie. But even so, Zendaya limped because of Rosalie. According to the doctor, it would

be difficult for her to recover without several operations in the future.

Besides, the operation was risky. If something happened, she might suffer a permanent disability.

Because of that, Zendaya’s attitude changed significantly during that period, and she was no longer as fearless as before. Although she was somewhat arrogant, she was lively and cheerful back then. Zendaya now only stayed in her room all day and rarely gathered with her friends, which worried Zachary.

“Yes, it’s her. She’s the one Jonathan wants to protect now. Who can touch her?” Yvette sounded a little envious.

Rosalie was the woman she had once thought would always be trampled by her, someone she might not even see again. After all, their circles were different.

However, she did not expect Rosalie to reappear in front of her in such a way and even make her dare not do anything to her.

Hearing that, Zachary suddenly seemed to understand something. “Did your family hurt Rosalie?”

Yvette pursed her red lips and suddenly blamed herself. “I didn’t remind my parents in advance. As soon as they saw Rosalie, they naturally remembered what happened to my sister. How could they not make a move against her?”

“Ask your parents to get over this matter. Rosalie had been in jail for three years, and her future is already ruined. If your parents do not let go of this matter, it will only make them feel more hurt,” Zachary advised.

Yvette immediately shot Zachary a glare. “Oh? Are you worried about Rosalie now? Then why didn’t you care about her when she was in jail? At that time, all her nails had been extracted from her fingers,

and her hand bones were broken by force!”

Zachary’s expression changed immediately when he heard that.

Although it had been over three years, the scene would still appear before him vividly.

“Do you think you can clear yourself if you care about Rosalie now? Do you think she will put in a good word for you in front of Jonathan and help you?” Yvette’s voice continued to ring in Zachary’s ears.

“What are you talking about? What happened between me and Rosalie is all in the past. You are my wife now. I’m only afraid that my parents-in-law will be impulsive against her again. By then, it’s the Hamilton family who will suffer. You have seen what happened in Zendaya. What else do you think Jonathan is incapable of?” Zachary frowned.

Yvette said nothing more upon hearing that.

Zachary hugged Yvette, saying, “Enough. You are the one I love and married. As for Rosalie, I already told you my stand when you were going to break her hands. Isn’t that enough? Doesn’t that make you feel better?”

Yvette leaned against Zachary’s chest and murmured, “Do you really not regret watching her suffer like that back then? If she hadn’t been put into jail because of the car accident, would it be her who you love now? Will you still be with me?”

That question had been on her mind for many years, and it was not until now that she finally asked Zachary about it.

Zachary was momentarily stunned, and the scene of him being with Rosalie appeared in his mind. In the past, the woman made him feel everything was wonderful. Although her sense of justice sometimes

amused him, he felt she differed from. those socialites he had seen in the circle. She was more energetic and radiant.

It was as if sometimes someone who had been involved in a conspiracy for too long couldn’t help but yearn for light. Although Zachary’s parents were not optimistic about his relationship with Rosalie, he once thought that one day, he would fight with his parents for Rosalie and insist on marrying her.
