Chapter 514
Carlos did not dare to ask more, so he started the car and drove away slowly.
Jonathan closed his eyes gently, seemingly tired. Earlier, his empty heart started filling up slowly when he saw Rosalie.
But as she disappeared from his sight, his heart became empty again.
It was undeniable that his emotions were easily affected by her presence. She could bring him joy and pain at the same time.
“Is there no way to stop myself from loving her?” Jonathan thought.
“Carlos, do you think I still love Rosalie?” Suddenly, Jonathan’s voice sounded in the car.
Carlos’ body stiffened. “This is a trick question!”
“Well, Mr. Youngblood...” Carlos hesitated, thinking of the most suitable answer.
“Tell me honestly!” Jonathan said coldly as if he had guessed his intention.
Carlos had no choice but to say, “Mr. Youngblood, you look at Ms. Leighton like a man in love. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so
angry after knowing Mr. Gunner is in love with Ms. Leighton.”
In the past, women had tried every means to stick to Jonathan, but these days, it seemed Jonathan was desperately staying
close to Rosalie.
ট
“So, I’m deceiving myself by calling her Rosie, right?” Jonathan spoke again.
Carlos did not dare to answer directly. He replied, “Mr. Youngblood, you seemed to miss the times when you were mistaken for a
vagrant by Ms. Leighton.”
“Miss?” A thought ran through Jonathan’s mind and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Jonathan indeed missed those times. Rosalie treated him with complete trust and let him experience family warmth for the first
time.
It
Wa
a feeling he had not received from his father, mother, or grandfather.
Only Rosalie managed to make him feel that warmth.
Perhaps that was why he gradually fell in love with her. To a point where he felt he could hand his life over to her.
Thus, he called her Rosie again, attempting to use the “sibling” relationship to keep her by his side. That way, he could hide the
fact that he still loved her!
The truth was, he could not erase her completely from his heart.
“If this is self-deception, so be it!” Jonathan sighed to himself.
The next day, Rosalie attended the court proceedings for Larry’s car accident lawsuit with Lawrence. Aubrielle, who initially
refused to admit she was the perpetrator of the car accident, suddenly pled guilty to all the charges and expressed her
willingness to compensate Larry and bear his medical expenses.
The turn of events surprised Rosalie, and she also saw the shock in Lawrence’s eyes.
Obviously, Lawrence did not know Aubrielle would pull this stunt.
However, that helped to close the case, and the court did not voice any further issues.
As for Aubrielle, she would face additional charges for getting someone to be her scapegoat.
When Aubrielle left the courtroom and passed by Rosalie, Rosalie could not help but ask, “Why did you suddenly change your
attitude and plead guilty?”
She found it difficult to believe that Aubrielle was suddenly hit by her guilty conscience.
“Why?” Aubrielle chuckled and stared at Rosalie mockingly. “You dare to ask me why. If I had known you were close to Calvin, I
wouldn’t have to go through all this.”
Aubrielle could only count herself unlucky for the situation to turn out this way.
Aubrielle was taken away by the judicial police, but Rosalie remained stunned.
“Did Aubrielle’s confession have something to do with Calvin?” Rosalie thought.
On the other hand, Lawrence looked thoughtful.
When Rosalie and Lawrence walked to the court gate, they saw a Maserati parked at the entrance. Calvin got out of the car and
looked at Rosalie.
Lawrence patted Rosalie on the shoulder and said, “Help me express my thanks to Mr. Gunner. If it weren’t for lum, I’m afraid
this case would not be so easy.”
Before Rosalie could react, Lawrence walked down the steps and greeted Calvin before leaving.
Rosalie stood on the steps in a daze and looked down at Calvin.
Calvin raised his chin slightly and looked at Rosalie.
Some people who came out of the courtroom noticed this scene and turned their gaze toward them.
Rosalie took a deep breath and walked down the steps toward Calvin. Although Calvin was not a celebrity, he was highly
recognizable due to his identity as the scion of the entertainment industry.
She did not want to attract attention from other people along with Calvin.
“Congratulations on winning the lawsuit today,” Calvin said,
Rosalie was stunned. He directly congratulated her without asking about the case. Sure enough, he had something to do with
Aubrielle’s confession.
“I didn’t win it. It was Mr. Guzman,” Rosalie said..
Calvin raised his lips and said, “It’s the same. Anyway, you won, right?”
“Were you the one who made Aubrielle plead guilty?” she asked.
He raised his eyebrows slightly. “Did Aubrielle say that?”
“Yes.”
“Well, that was nothing,” he said lightly as if it was just an ordinary matter.
Rosalie did not know what Calvin had done to make Aubrielle plead guilty. After all, Aubrielle’s reputation was ruined now, and
she could never return to the entertainment industry again.
“Anyway, thank you,” Rosalie said.
“If you really want to thank me, go somewhere with me,” Calvin said.
“Where?” she asked.
“You will know when you see it,” replied Calvin.
When Rosalie followed Calvin to the place he said, she discovered it was a small and somewhat shabby clinic. A sign bearing
“Sabatini’s Orthopedics” hung at the entrance.
“An orthopedic clinic?” Rosalie was puzzled.
While Rosalie wondered, Calvin explained, “Don’t look down on this small clinic. Mr. Sabatini inherited his skills and knowledge
from his family. He’s operating from a small clinic as he doesn’t like the structure of a regular hospital.”
“Why did you bring me here?” Rosalie asked.
“I want Mr. Sabatini to see your hands.” As Calvin spoke, he took Rosalie’s hands.
Her fingers were slightly deformed, which was quite obvious, given her tiny hands. “I guessed you must have injured your hands
before. I saw you having difficulties when you write or use the fork.”
Rosalie was stunned. She did not expect Calvin to notice such details.
