The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 699
Amelia gently closed her eyes. “So, if that’s the case, I don’t regret meeting Warren in this lifetime. Perhaps it’s fate. I just hope
that in my next life, I won’t have to encounter him again.”
Rosalie pressed her lips. Even though Amelia had come to terms with her fate, Rosalie couldn’t.
She had to find a way to keep Amelia alive!
After leaving the hospital, Rosalie made her way to Youngblood Group.
Both the front desk staff and security recognized her, still remembering Rosalie’s previous visit when she insisted on seeing
Jonathan at the
entrance.
Furthermore, they had previously questioned whether Jonathan would actually meet her, but he had ultimately directed Carlos to
escort her to the CEO’s office.
As a result, this time, they were uncertain about whether to allow her access, finding themselves in a quandary.
As Rosalie contemplated calling Jonathan to explain the situation, she noticed Carlos passing by not far away. She quickly called
out, “Mr. Gibson!”
Carlos, upon spotting Rosalie, swiftly approached her. “Mrs. Youngblood, what brings you here?”
This address immediately startled both the front desk staff and the people accompanying Carlos.
“I’m here to find Jon, but I forgot to call and inform him before coming,” Rosalie explained.
“Mr. Youngblood is currently in a meeting. Would you like me to escort you to Mr. Youngblood’s office to wait?” Carlos suggested
respectfully.
Rosalíe nodded, and Carlos issued a few instructions to those nearby before accompanying Rosalie into the elevator. Carlos
even personally pressed the elevator button for her.

Within Youngblood Group, although Carlos held the position of a personal assistant and not a high-ranking executive, his years
dedicated service by Jonathan’s side had earned him immense respect from many high-ranking individuals.

Carlos had never shown such respect to a woman before.
The way Carlos addressed Rosalie as “Mrs. Youngblood” and Rosalie’s mention of “Jon” raised growing suspicion among those
present.
They exchanged puzzled glances, and a certain possibility began to take shape in their minds. The disbelief on their faces
became even more pronounced.
They couldn’t help but wonder if “Jon” indeed referred to Jonathan, especially when it seemed that Carlos was escorting Rosalie
to meet Jonathan just moments ago!
“Well... um, it appears that Mrs. Youngblood might be pregnant,” someone suddenly commented.
It was at that moment that everyone recalled Rosalie, with her slender figure, did indeed have a subtle bump in her belly,
although it wasn’t very noticeable.
They couldn’t help but continue to speculate whether Rosalie was indeed pregnant and whether the child might belong to
Jonathan.
If that turned out to be true, it could potentially become a news that sent -shockwaves throughout the entire city!
Following Carlos, Rosalie arrived at the CEO’s office. She had visited this place several times before and felt comfortable without
the need for Carlos to accompany her.
“You can go. I’ll wait here,” Rosalie said.
“Sure thing. If you need anything, you can ask the secretary outside at any time,” Carlos replied before exiting the room.
In the spacious office, Rosalie was the sole occupant.
She looked around, and at this moment, she was completely different from her last visit.
Back then, she had come to plead for Jonathan’s help due to Lillian’s illness, and her heart had been filled with despair.

However, now, standing here, Rosalie felt like a completely different
person.
Rosalie approached Jonathan’s desk, cluttered with numerous files, imagining how busy he must be spending most of his time
here. Suddenly, her eyes fixed on one of the files on the desk. The cover of the file bore the words “Hamilton Jade Gardens.”

Rosalie recalled Hamilton Jade Gardens as a property owned by the Hamilton family, marking their significant venture into real
estate in recent years. There were widespread rumors that they had invested billions in the initial land acquisition. Over the past
two years, the Hamilton family had been aggressively marketing and promoting this project, leaving no doubt about its pivotal
position in their portfolio. “But now... why is this file on Jon’s desk?” Rosalie wondered.
As Rosalie mulled over the unexpected discovery, the office door suddenly swung open. Startled, she inadvertently knocked a
file folder onto the floor, scattering its contents.
As Rosalie gazed at what had spilled out, she found herself frozen in shock. It was a stack of photographs, and the subject of
these photos was none other than Melanie, Jonathan’s late fiancée and the eldest daughter of the Hamilton family!
Rosalie couldn’t help but wonder why these photos were on his desk.
Melanie, the woman who had come close to marrying Jonathan but tragically lost her life in a car accident. It left Rosalie
wondering whether she would have ever crossed paths with Jonathan if not for that tragic incident.
Undoubtedly, that car accident had altered the destinies of many individuals.
Lost in her thoughts, Rosalie watched as a hand reached down to gather the scattered photos from the ground, and later
realized that it was Jonathan’s hand!
Rosalie stared blankly as Jonathan bent down to pick up each of the scattered photos on the ground along with the file folder.
“I...” Her throat suddenly felt dry. “I went to visit Lillian in the hospital, and since it’s still early, I decided to stop by and see you.”
“How’s Lillian doing?” he asked.

“She’s doing surprisingly well... much better than I expected. She’s actively cooperating with her treatment,” Rosalie replied, her
gaze fixed on Jonathan as he casually organized the photos back into the file folder. Unable to contain her curiosity, she finally
spoke up. “These photos...” “Do they bother you?” Jonathan asked.
“Why do you have pictures of Melanie here?” Rosalie asked.
“Bother me? Well, I must admit, it does stir up some feelings. After all,

Melanie had come very close to becoming Jonathan’s wife, but Melanie is no longer with us. While I know that Jonathan’s heart
now belongs to me, but... with these photos suddenly appearing on his desk, I can’t help but wonder if, deep down, he still
misses Melanie,” Rosalie mused.
“They were sent by the Hamilton family. I’ll arrange to have the photos returned to them,” Jonathan replied.
“Why would the Hamilton family suddenly send pictures of Melanie?” Rosalie asked, her confusion growing. After all, Melanie
was no longer alive!
Jonathan gave her a half-smile and said, “Perhaps as a reminder not to forget about her!”
As he spoke, a fleeting glint of coldness passed through his eyes.
For a moment, Rosalie looked at the man before her with a sense of astonishment, feeling as if he now carried an air of danger
she hadn’t sensed before.
It was as though he had detected her scrutiny, and in an instant, Jonathan returned to his usual warm demeanor, the one she
was accustomed to when they were together.
“All right, don’t dwell on it too much. There’s nothing between Melanie and me. My engagement to her as my fiancée at that time
was merely because Grandpa believed she was a good fit for the Youngblood family,” he assured her, gently taking her hand.
Rosalie offered a faint smile. “I don’t mind at all. After all, that’s all in the past. Besides, I also had a boyfriend back then.”
