Chapter 37


    She used to eat at the restaurant for a meal after working with her colleagues in thew firm. For


    her at that time, eating at the restaurant was like having a working meal.


    However, it now became a meal that was like a luxury.


    “That’s good. Rosie, please order the foodter.” Jonathan changed the subject without a trace.


    The dishes Rosalie ordered were all rtively cheap. The most expensive one was a shrimp dish


    that cost 9 dors and 60 cents. The total price of all the dishes was 35 dors.


    Although the sum was not a lot, it was already the most expensive meal Rosalie had eaten in many


    days.


    Jonathan tried to persuade Rosalie to order more. “Rosie, I have money.” However, Rosalie


    continued, “That’s enough. Even if you want a good meal, there is no need to order too much.”


    After a while, the waiter served Rosalie and Jonathan. The food served was naturally much better


    than the simple meals they usually ate. While eating shrimp, Jonathan naturally shelled the shrimp


    for Rosalie and put it on her te.


    She looked at the shrimp in a daze.


    “Why aren’t you eating it?” he asked.


    She smiled lightly, “Jon, I just think that you are very good at taking care of people. Whoever dates


    you in the future will be blissful.” Then, she put the shrimp in her mouth.


    She remembered that she had once watched a TV series where the male lead shelled shrimp for


    the female lead.


    Although the behavior was just a small act, it made people feel that they were treasured and


    protected.


    However, at that time, when she was dating Zachary, he never shelled the shrimp for her.


    In fact, when Zachary was dating her before, she could tell his true colors through some small


    details. Although Zachary said that he loved her, his love was evidently not deep.


    That was why he retreated so fast when something bad happened to her


    “Really?” he asked indifferently. “Dating… It is like a child’s thing. In my life, I will never fall in love or


    date any woman,” he thought.


    Even marriage was just a means to expand his career.


    When they finished the meal, Jonathan got up and went to foot the bill. Rosalie sat in a chair and


    was about to get up when she saw several familiar figures walking toward the store through the


    ss.


    She almost subconsciously turned her back and didn’t want those people to see her.


    However, the more she didn’t want some things to happen, the more it would happen sometimes.


    They walked into the store and walked in Rosalie’s direction under the guidance of the waiter.


    Rosalie felt her heart beating violently.

    “Rosie, what’s wrong with you?” Suddenly, a voice sounded in her ear.


    Without thinking, Rosalie held Jonathan’s waist and buried her head in


    his arms.


    Jonathan was slightly stunned, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he let her hold him.


    After a while, he said again, “Rosie?”


    Rosalie raised her head slightly and looked to one side. Then she heaved a sigh of relief and looked


    up at Jonathan. “Have you paid the bill?”


    “Yes.”


    “Then, let’s go.” She picked up her bag and walked out of the store with him as if she was running


    away from something.


    “What’s wrong? Are you hiding from something?” he asked.


    She paused and said vaguely, “My former colleagues also came here for a meal. I–I don’t want


    them to see me.”


    Sheughed at herself and said, “It’s ridiculous. In fact, they all know what happened to me. I guess


    they can also guess the terrible state I am in now, but I still don’t want to see them in person.”


    She didn’t want to see the sympathy in their eyes or the pity.


    In the past, being awyer was a career she wanted to fight for her whole life. However, presently,


    those colleagues were still having that job, but she could no longer have it.

    Her self–mockery made his heart suddenly hurt.


    He held her hand tightly and said in a low voice, “Then, avoid them. One day, you will be more


    amazing than anyone else.”


    “Amazing…” She smiled bitterly. It was not easy for her to survive, much less think about being


    amazing.


    “I heard from Yvette that you wanted to arrange a job for Rosalie that day. I warn you; don’t get


    involved with the woman anymore. She hurt Yvette’s sister, Jonathan’s fiancée! The Xanthos family


    can’t afford to offend Jonathan!”


    Frank’s harsh warning sounded from the other end of the phone. Zachary frowned slightly and


    replied, “I see.”


    He couldn’t afford to offend Jonathan. He had heard that sentence too many times. At that time,


    everyone med him for having a girlfriend like Rosalie.


    Fortunately, he broke up with Rosalie and dated Yvetteter. His family was satisfied with Yvette.


    The Hamilton family and the Xanthos family were around the same status. At that time, the


    Hamilton family and the Youngblood family almost got connected by a marriage of convenience.


    Although the marriage failed, there was still a rtionship between them.


    The Xanthos family also hoped that the Hamilton family could say something nice for them in front


    of Jonathan if there was a need to do


    1. SO.


    After finishing the call, Zachary looked at the red light at the intersection ahead and slowly stepped


    on the brake.


    Rosalie’s face shed through his mind. It was undeniable that the current Rosalie was really


    different from before.


    Although her face was the same, her temperament changed. Especially when he saw her wearing


    the clothes of a sanitary worker, he felt that it was right to break up with her.


    Yvette was the woman who really suited him. As for Rosalie, she was just a past lover and might


    even be mentioned as a stain on his life by others in the future.


    He felt a little guilty about her ending up in that state. After all, when she wanted him to collect


    evidence for her back then, he refused and even directly decided to break up with her.


    However, she had killed Mnie. She had offended the Hamilton family


    and the Youngblood family at the same time. So, he couldn’t help her!


    Thinking of that, Zachary suddenly saw a slender figure across the road through the windshield.


    That person was… Rosalie!


    Zachary was stunned. At that moment, there was another man standing beside Rosalie. They


    seemed to be talking about something. Then Rosalie slightly raised her chin while the man lowered


    his head and approached Rosalie’s face.


    They looked like they were kissing.


    Zachary couldn’t help but feel infuriated. He hadn’t anticipated that Rosalie would find a new man


    shortly after being released from prison. His initial intentions of assisting her seemed to have been


    in vain.
