Chapter 846
Connor’s wife, Kaylie Cook, being the wife of Rosalie’s mentor, directly asked Yoel on the internet a lot of questions about what
his intention was. If a lawyer were to defend a victim but still faced such a situation to the point of being slandered, one would
genuinely be afraid that there would only be fewer righteous lawyers in the future.
Moreover, if the person who slandered was not punished after doing it, then it would make a lot of lawyers feel disheartened.
All of a sudden, these topics were trending.
After reading the reasonable analysis of so many lawyers, those netizens who were once on Yoel’s side changed their opinion.
Meanwhile, Yoel completely became the public enemy of the legal field. Even many lawyers said that they would never be Yoel’s
defense lawyer in the future.
In addition, some netizens found the live recordings of some lawsuits that Rosalie had represented in Lofbury before. It could be
said that she excellently won these lawsuits. Thus, there was another group of followers on the internet who praised Rosalie as a
winner of life because she had a rich and handsome husband and two children, a boy and a girl. It was the reason why a photo
of Rosalie and Jonathan attending the banquet was spread on the internet in the evening.
Rosalie was wearing the limited-edition gown that Agyness liked. However, back then, Agyness did not even have a chance to
try it on. because Rosalie bought it directly.
Rosalie had a smile on her face. Her elegant face looked noble and sophisticated with the help of the gown. As for Jonathan, he
was standing beside Rosalie and held her hand. When he lowered his head, his beautiful, flirtatious eyes were looking at Rosalie
gently.
Anyone could tell that Jonathan loved Rosalie deeply from the photo.
A man like him had never looked at another woman with such a kind
gaze.
Agyness felt jealous.
She thought, “It should have been me who stood next to Jonathan! How could Rosalie still have so many people defending her
even at this stage? Moreover, the initially mocking words on the internet have turned into

praises now. Is it because she is Jonathan’s wife and also the lady of the household for the Youngblood family? It took me so
much money to set up this scheme. In the end, is it possible that it merely helped Rosalie to get what she wants? Why would I
want to see a large number of netizens being jealous of Rosalie because she is deemed the winner in life?”
Agyness’ expression was twisted with jealousy.
After Rosalie sent Guillermo and Jennifer to the kindergarten in the morning, she went back to the Youngblood residence. When
she was at the entrance of the house, she was surprised to find two figures tugging at one another. One of them even had
bandages wrapped around the wrist. When the car got closer, Rosalie saw that the two people were Zachary and Zendaya.
Zendaya had already become completely different than five years ago. Even though she still wore outfits from luxury brands, it
might be the clothes that Zendaya had when the Xanthos family still had its glory in the past.
Therefore, although the outfit was from a luxury brand, it was already old and outdated.
Moreover, Zendaya’s hair was no longer carefully maintained as before, and it looked slightly dry and discolored. It was simply
tied with hair ties. At this moment, the two siblings from the Xanthos family stopped tugging at one another when they saw the
car arriving.
Rosalie got out of the car and looked at the two people in front of her. “What are you doing here?”
Zendaya rushed forward and said to Rosalie, “Zach saved your life, Rosalie. You only paid his medical expenses a little but didn’t
even thank him. Is that how you treated your savior?”
Zachary used his non-injured hand to pull Zendaya quickly. Then, he said, “I’m the one who doesn’t need anything else myself.
That’s enough. Let’s go back, Zendaya!”
“Our family needs money now, Zach. Your hand is injured, and you
can’t
work for more than a month. Moreover, do you think that we don’t have to use money for Mom to get her usual treatment? I’m
afraid that if we were to rely on the money that I have earned, we wouldn’t be able to afford the rent next month!” Zendaya said
while she cried.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zachary’s face.

Rosalie said, “So, you’re here for money, right?”
“So what if it’s true? Do you think your life is worth nothing?” Zendaya raised her chin and looked at Rosalie with a trace of
jealousy in her eyes. The person she despised before was now the lady of the household for the Youngblood family. Rosalie
stayed in a mansion while she became an ugly duckling who was living her current life, similar to how Rosalie lived her life when
she had just come out of prison.
She remembered that she once mocked Rosalie for working as a sanitary worker back then.
Nevertheless, now, she was just a dishwasher in a restaurant. Moreover, it was impossible for her to become a waitress, even if
she wanted to, purely because one of her legs was crippled.
“Fine. I can give you money,” Rosalie said. She thought it would be so much better if she could use money to solve the problem.
At least, it would be considered even between Zachary and her. “How much do you want?”
Zendaya was about to demand a large sum of money when Zachary scolded her in a hurry, “That’s enough, Zendaya. I never
said that I wanted money. I’ll find a way to pay for Mom’s medical expenses and the rent.”
As Zachary spoke, he looked straight at Rosalie. “I know that I had done wrong many times back then, Rosalie. At first, it was I
who pursued you and promised to protect you for the rest of my life. But later, I simply watched you be sent to prison for the sake
of the Xanthos family. I even just stood by and watched Yvette do those things to you. I didn’t
deliberately save you this time. Maybe it’s fate. I’m destined to pay back what I owed you back then.”
When Zachary spoke, a trace of pain flashed across his eyes.
At that time, when the truth was finally exposed to him, he knew that Yvette was the culprit who did everything back then.
Rosalie became a scapegoat because half of it was his fault. It was because Yvette liked him, but Rosalie was the woman he
loved at that time. That was why Yvette chose Rosalie, as the former wanted to kill two birds with
one stone.
“So, why do you need to give me money? Everything should end here right now.” After saying that, Zachary left. It was as if he
did not want to continue to stay there anymore and make a fool of himself.

Zendaya stomped her feet while she stood behind and watched Zachary’s retreating figure as he walked away. Then, she looked
at Rosalie with hatred. “It’s all your fault that our Xanthos family becomes like this, Rosalie. Shouldn’t you compensate the
Xanthos family?”
“I never owe the Xanthos family anything. Why should I give compensation?” replied Rosalie. After that, she added indifferently,
“You don’t have to yell loudly like this in front of me, Zendaya. Indeed, Zachary saved me. If he asks for money, I can give it to
him. As for you, I won’t give you a penny. You can give up.”
After saying that, Rosalie walked directly into the Youngblood residence. Zendaya stared at Rosalie’s back with hatred and finally
left unwillingly. After returning to the house, Rosalie hesitated for a while and ordered the bodyguard, who was following her,
“Find someone to check
everything related to Zachary’s mother’s illness. Also, find out how much more money is needed for the medical expenses.”
