The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 65

She never expected that she would suffer such a severe injury just because Jonathan wanted to take revenge for Rosalie.

“Why is it Rosalie?” she thought.

After all, Melanie was a famous beauty back then. As for Rosalie… Even if Zendaya admitted that Rosalie used to be good-looking, the latter had spent three years in prison and was now a sweeper worker. There was no way one who did not take good care of herself like Rosalie would be beautiful. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Besides, Jonathan had been used to seeing gorgeous ladies. Zendaya thought it was impossible for him to be interested in Rosalic.

“So stop messing with Rosalie. Also, you’d better keep those words I told you today to yourself. Don’t tell anyone, not even Dad and Mom. Jonathan said he didn’t want anyone to know about it. I already made a huge mistake for telling the two of you today,” Zachary warned Zendaya.

Zendaya fell silent. She could still find a way to vent her anger if it was someone else. However, the other Jonathan. She feared it would be hard for the Xanthos family to survive in Strico if she pis sed him off.

party was

Regarding Jonathan, some said he was the king of Strico, while others said he was a warrior in the business world. There were even people who said he was actually a ‘madman.”

Rumor had it that there used to be a woman who wanted to approach Jonathan and thus bribed a hotel manager to get his hotel room number and spare key, planning an unexpected romance with him.

In the end, the woman was wrapped in a bedsheet and thrown on the road at the hotel entrance. The woman’s family business also became worse later. In less than one year, that daughter of a prominent family became penniless and could only live on by selling herself in the nightclub.

As for the hotel manager who had received the bribe, it was said that no one in Strico had ever seen him again. Some said he already left Strico, some said he was dead, and others said he was brought abroad by a human trafficker as a laborer.

There were all kinds of speculations.

In short, Jonathan was definitely a ruthless person. If someone offended him, he would make the person’s family pay for it as well.

It was also after that incident that many socialites of Strico dared not to have any thoughts about Jonathan anymore.

Although Jonathan was charming and wealthy, nobody wanted to take the risk. After all, the socialite who had become an escort of a nightclubs had been a laughingstock and warning to the other socialines of Strico in recent years.

“Understand?” Zachary said again.

*I… I understand. It’s no big deal. I won’t mess with Rosalie in the future” Zendaya was reluctant.

After Zendaya limped out of the garden, Zachary turned to Yvette and said, “Let’s go back to the front hall.”

However, Yvette was knitting her brows, and her face was sour at that moment.

“What’s the matter? You can’t accept that Jonathan has a crush on Rosalie, huh?” Zachary asked. After all, it was Rosalie who ran over and killed Melanie back then.

“Do you think Jonathan will overturn the case for Rosalie? Yvette asked.

“Turn over the case?”

“After all, with Jonathan’s ability, it’s not impossible for him to make Rosalie look innocent. If Rosalie’s case were turned over, then my sister would die…” Yvette gritted her teeth and clenched her fists as she trembled slightly.

“Don’t overthink. Do you think it’s easy to turn over a case? The witnesses and physical evidence back then were all directed at Rosalie. Even if Jonathan wanted to turn over the case for her, it would not be easy. Zachary patted Yvette on the shoulder and comforted her. “Besides, Jonathan’s feelings for Rosalie are only a whim. With Rosalie’s identity, she can’t marry into the Youngblood family. Leonard will be the first to reject it.”

Yvette’s frown slowly relaxed when she heard that. “This better be the truth. Otherwise, Mel would have died in vain. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have been so merciful to her in prison back then!”

Zachary pursed his thin lips and somehow disagreed that Yvette had been merciful to Rosalie. The scene of Rosalie’s fingers bleeding and each of her fingers being broken seemed to flash before his eyes again.

Back then, he had stood by and watched the scene coldly. It could be said that he was one of the accomplices.

Hemurmured inwardly, “If Rosalie wants Jonathan to seek justice for her one day, then both the Xanthos family and

Thinking of that, Zachary couldn’t help but shiver. He looked at Yvette beside him.

He mused. “The Xanthos and Hamilton families are in the same boat now. Even if it’s true that Jonathan is interested in Rosalie, I don’t think he will make a move against the Xanthos and Hamilton families for a woman. After all, Rosalie ended up like that back then because she deserved it. Wasn’t she?”

Rosalie only felt that she had a long dream.

In her dream, she seemed to be returned to prison again. No matter how hard she tried to escape or beg for mercy, she could not avoid those tortures, be it the cold and piercing water, the filth and dirt, or even punches and kicks. The other party stepped on her head and said in a mocking tone, “Look! This woman is a lawyer and also an intellectual but still ends up in prison like us. Oh! By the way, we are much better than her. We are hitting people, yet she can only be a punching bag.”

She wondered how long she needed to suffer and why she had to endure such pain since she had not done anything wrong. “Rosalie, do you know what your biggest mistake is? You shouldn’t have offended the gentleman of Strico.”

“Rosalie, those who offended Jonathan will never have good endings.”

“Rosalie, Mr. Youngblood is merciful. That’s why he didn’t kill you. Otherwise, you would have died in prison”

Rosalie thought. “Is he merciful? I got injuries all over thy body during my three years in prison and might not be able to have children in my life. How can this be called merciful?”

She felt so terrible that it was as if her body was about to explode.

It was so uncomfortable, and she wondered who could save her..

“No… Don’t…” She struggled desperately but had no idea what she was struggling for. She did not know whether she wanted to break free from the terrible feeling in her body or the miserable fate.

Who could help her, and who would protect her?

“It’s okay, Rosie. I’m here. No one can hurt you as long as you’re with me.” A familiar voice rang out in her ear.

“Whose voice is this? Oh, it’s Jon! Jon!’ Rosalie exclaimed inwardly.

Rosalie struggled to open her eyes. What came into was an utterly charming face.

“This is Jon! But… he seems a little different from the usual Jon” she thought.

“Rosie, you’re awake! Are you still uncomfortable?” Jonathan asked in a cold voice that was tinged with a touch of

tenderness.

Rosalie shook her head. After Jonathan helped her sit up, she noticed that the Jon before her was somewhat different from his usual self.

Jonathan had styled his thick fringe up, revealing his entire forehead. Besides wearing a well-crafted suit with a tie around his neck, Jonathan had also put on a watch on his wrist. Rosalie recognized the brand of the watch. It would cost at least hundreds of thousands of dollars if it were genuine.

Rosalie could not believe that was the Jon she knew and blinked, feeling unreal.

“Rosie, what’s wrong?” Jonathan asked again after he saw her dazed look.

“Are you really Jon?” she murmured.

“I am,” he answered.
