The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 239
Rosalie hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. She didn’t want to embarrass the butler.
After that, Rosalie asked the driver to take her to a shopping mall downtown.
Rosalie wanted to buy something that would be suitable for elderly people to use on a regular basis. Since the mall’s basement
had a food hall, she decided to head there first.
After checking out the pastries, Rosalie selected some that were suitable for, the elderly, as well as those who had high blood
sugar. Even though they were a little expensive, Rosalie was reminded that Wilma’s blood sugar would sometimes exceed the
usual limit. In the end, she decided to purchase the pastry.
Having paid the bill, she took the escalator while carrying the pastries.
As soon as Rosalie reached the second floor, a figure suddenly rushed toward her. Before she could see who the person was,
she was slapped hard in the face.
The slap made Rosalie stumble and almost fall to the ground. She managed to stabilize herself, but the pastry box in her hand
fell to the ground.
“And here I thought it’d be someone else. Turns out that it’s really you, the troublemaker! So you’re out and about now? And
you’re actually shopping at the mall?” The scolding and curses rang in Rosalie’s ears.
In a slight daze, Rosalie covered her cheek and looked at the angry lady in front of her.
“This face... I remember her!” Rosalie thought to herself.
Back then, when Rosalie was in court, that woman had run toward her and slapped her fiercely a few times, causing her to bleed
from the corners of her mouth. It took a few days for the swelling to reduce from her face.
Even though the judicial police were standing beside her, they didn’t stop the woman from hitting her, as if they deliberately set
aside time for the woman to hit her.
This woman was Melanie’s mother, Sandra Hamilton.

Rosalie didn’t dare think about the reason behind it. Was it because the other party was the Hamilton family? As for Rosalie, she
had no background and was a forsaken soul kicked away by the Xanthos family.
Now, even after being released from prison, the woman had slapped her hard in front of her. Then, as if the first slap wasn’t
enough, the woman’s other hand wanted to strike her again.
In an almost subconscious move, Rosalie raised her arm and grabbed the other party’s hand.
“I didn’t harm anyone!” Rosalie stared at her coldly,
“The court has found you guilty. How dare you say that you haven’t hurt anyone? It’s only been three years. Hah! You’ve only
been in jail for three years. In my opinion, you should spend your whole life in prison instead!” Sandra said angrily as she raised
another hand, wanting to hit Rosalie again.
Rosalie was only able to block the woman’s attack with her other hand. “Surely there are unjust and wrongly convicted cases in
the court! Listen, I don’t owe you anything, and you have no right to hit me!”.
“Rights?” Another middle-aged man’s voice interrupted them. “People like you do not have the right to speak about rights.”
Rosalie froze and looked up at the man who came over. It was Melanie’s father, Howard.
If Jonathan had a part in her nightmare in prison, Howard played a role in it as well.
At this moment, there were several security guards beside Howard.
Howard said to them coldly, “Go help Mrs. Hamilton, and don’t let this crazy woman hit her.”
Those bodyguards hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Rosalie and Sandra apart.
“Honestly, aren’t you afraid of being a joke in such a place?” Howard said.
Sandra replied furiously, “It’s all because I got so mad seeing her. Tell me, is she even aware of what she’s saying? In spite of
the fact that she caused Melanie’s death, she claimed that she hadn’t hurt anyone!”
Howard stared at Rosalie with his sharp eyes. “You’re out. However, whether you were wrongly convicted is a matter for the
court. But when you talk about rights...”

Howard’s gaze was filled with disdain, as though he was looking at an ant that he could trample to death. “I really don’t think you
deserve to be talking about rights in front of me.”
Then he said to the security guard beside him, “Get this woman out of here and distribute her photos to the mall’s security
guards and manager. This woman is not allowed to enter this mall again in the future.”
The security guards responded, and then they were about to throw Rosalie out immediately.
“M-My things are still on the ground.” Rosalie had already realized that if the other party could say such a thing, it would mean
that the Hamilton family owned the mall, or was one of its biggest shareholders. Hence, they were able to instruct the security
guards.
At that moment, she simply wanted to pick up the box with pastries on the ground and leave.
To her surprise, Howard said directly to another security guard, “Throw this garbage into the trash can. It’s an eyesore.”
The security guard picked up the box of pastries on the ground and threw them into the trash can next to him.
Rosalie’s face suddenly turned red. This was nothing short of a blatant humiliation. What was more, the other party had
deliberately chosen to humiliate her in public.
But what was even more unfortunate was that she didn’t have the strength to fight back right now. She could only be escorted
out of the mall like a troublemaker.
When two security guards escorted Rosalie to the entrance of the mall, they finally let go of her and warned, “Don’t cause any
trouble or come back in. Otherwise, we’ll call the police and sue you for disrupting the order of the mall.”
Rosalie felt ridiculous. She studied law, but now she’s being threatened by it. Clenching both her hands tightly into fists, which
were hung by her side, she gritted her teeth. Her gaze passed beyond both security guards, through the transparent glass doors
of the mall, and into the interior of the shopping center.
Rosalie tried to tell herself that there was no need to be sad, upset, or even in pain over something like this.
The more she reacted to it, the more it would play into their hands. After all, Howard and the others wanted to embarrass her.
Perhaps they had their own reasons. They believed she was responsible for Melanie’s death, but she didn’t do it at all. “Melanie’s
death was unjustly, but what about me? I’ve been framed as well!” Rosalie pondered/

What could she do to put up with this?
Even if she explained that she was framed by the Hamilton family, all they gave her was humiliation time and time again.
It felt as if something was suppressing her heart, almost making it difficult for her to breathe.
She wanted to clear her name and never wished to face accusations or insults for things that weren’t her fault anymore.
Meanwhile, Sandra seemed to be holding on to her resentment as she said, “She’s getting off too easy by being driven out of the
mall-like this!”
“What else do you want, then?” Howard asked.
“She should be locked up in prison for at least another eight or ten years! She’s only been in prison for a few years. Letting her
out so soon is really too easy for her!” Sandra said resentfully. “And she was still in the mood for some shopping? What about
Melanie? She left us at such a young age! If Melanie hadn’t died, she would’ve been Mrs. Youngblood now! Melanie had such a
promising life, but she ruined it!”
