Chapter 85


    Loretta’s back broke out in cold sweat as she wondered, “I-Is he really…”


    “What? Jonathan, do you know each other?” asked n in surprise as he stood at the side. As far


    as n knew, Loretta was just a third-rate celebrity. Logically, they should have nothing to do with


    each other.


    “Yes. I’ve met her once before,” said Jonathan indifferently.


    Loretta’s eyes widened, and her heart almost leaped out of her throat. She thought, “It is really


    him…. the man who lives with Rosalie! At that time, everyone in their family suspected the man


    might have been someone Rosalie knew from prison.


    Who would have imagined that man is Jonathan? Jonathan, who is one of the most powerful people


    in Strico!”


    Loretta almost fainted from shock. “What the hell is going on? Why was Rosalie living with Jonathan


    in that shabby rental home?” Loretta wondered.


    Calvin looked at Jonathan and Loretta in surprise before asking, “Loretta, why didn’t you tell me that


    you knew Jonathan before?”


    Loretta trembled andughed awkwardly before saying, “At that time, I didn’t know who Mr.


    Youngblood was. Then she hurriedly smiled at Jonathan and continued, “Mr. Youngblood, there


    seems to be a slight misunderstanding between us. I would like to apologize for that.”


    Jonathan seemed to ignore Loretta and looked at Calvin. “If there is nothing else, please make sure


    you don’t bring along your girlfriend when you meet me. I don’t like seeing this woman.”


    Loretta’s face turned pale, but she didn’t dare to say anything.


    Calvin’s eyes shed as if he had thought of something.


    After Calvin and Loretta had left, n came forward with great interest and asked Jonathan.


    “What’s the matter? Did Calvin’s new girlfriend offend you before?”


    Jonathan didn’t respond. Instead, he drained the half ss of wine in his hand.


    When Jonathan saw Loretta, it brought back memories of Rosalie. He thought, ‘As long as Rosalie


    stayed by my side, she could have a better life. Rosalie doesn’t need to do such dirty work or tire


    herself out. Plus, she won’t need to cater to anyone’s whims anymore. Why… would she refuse it?


    And even… my touch seems to disgust her to the extreme.


    She is just another woman. There is no need for me to care what she thinks about me! Jonathan


    kept saying that to himself, but the frustration he felt in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.


    Over on the other side, Loretta looked at Calvin uneasily and mumbled, “Calvin… Did I… somehow


    offend Mr. Youngblood? He…


    “Just don’t show up in front of him anymore,” warned Calvin as he looked at the person opposite


    him and asked, “Where and when did you meet Jonathan?”

    “It was at my sister’s rental home, but Mr. Youngblood looked different at that time. Because our


    family was involved in an argument with my sister, we also had a little conflict with Mr. Youngblood,”


    said Loretta trying to undermine the actual situation. She was afraid that Calvin would abandon her


    because she had offended Jonathan.


    Calvin was surprised. He thought, “Rental homes? Loretta’s sister? Is she the woman that n


    mentioned two days ago? The woman that Jonathan went to save, which caused him to leave


    Leonard alone on New Year’s Eve?”


    “I really didn’t know that he was Jonathan. If this matter affects you, I can apologize to him. Calvin,


    don’t get mad at me, all right? I will be obedient after this. I will make sure to toe the line in the


    future,” begged Loretta, looking like a fragile young girl. She looked pitiful, with her eyes misting


    over with tears.


    Calvin raised his hand and gently stroked Loretta’s lips. Loretta knew that this was Calvin’s favorite


    thing to do these days.


    Calvin loved her lips so much. He always said that Loretta had sexy lips, but strangely, he never


    kissed her on the lips. Even after touching her lips, he would wipe his fingers with a clean


    handkerchief as if she were somewhat unclean.


    Calvin’s contradictory behavior confused Loretta, but she dared not ask him about it.


    “There is no need to apologize. You are my girlfriend. You only need to worry about me. Regarding


    everyone else, you can ignore them, said Calvin.


    Calvin’s movements were gentle as if he was gently touching some precious treasure, contrasting


    his cold and distant tone of


    voice.


    Sometimes, Loretta really felt that she couldn’t really understand this man. She didn’t know what he


    was thinking or what he wanted.


    “All-All right. 1-1 understand, stammered Loretta.


    Calvin withdrew his hand and took a handkerchief as usual, wiping his fingers carefully.


    Loretta bit her lips slightly and thought, “One day, I will win over this man and be hisst


    girlfriend. In the future, I will marry into the Gunner family!”


    At this moment, Loretta secretly swore in her heart!


    The New Year soon passed, and on the eighth day of New Year, Loretta went to work in the


    Environment and Sanitation Administration. Apparently, many colleagues had watched the news


    and knew that someone had thrown things at Rosalie at the hospital entrance, so they were


    gossiping behind her back.


    “Rosalie, I hope no onees to the Environment and Sanitation Administration and throws things


    at the people here. Don’t drag the rest of us from the Environment and Sanitation Administration


    with you into this problem.”


    “That’s right. My parents have found out my colleague is an ex-convict and are worried about me


    working with her!” “Yvette has so many fans, and Rosalie killed Yvette’s sister back then. I heard


    Yvette had a great rtionship with her sister. Those fans are all upset on behalf of Yvette. I wonder


    if there will be any more aggressive behavior from her fans in the future. It would be terrible luck if


    we got hurt by ident.”


    In the Environment and Sanitation Administration, there was nock of people mocking and


    ridiculing Rosalie.


    Rosalie put up


    with it silently andughed everything off After all, this job was vital to her. She needed this job to


    survive. “If 1 get dismissed, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find another job for a while, thought


    Rosalie.


    Yulissa said to Rosalie. “Ignore those people. They would be d to see you quit your job


    voluntarily and leave. But it’s hard


    for anyone to find a new job at this point. Even if you change your job, there is a possibility people


    will still criticize you.”


    “Yes, I understand that,” said Rosalie. She lowered her head and focused on sweeping the road.


    At this moment, a man who was rushing bumped into Rosalie suddenly. She staggered several


    steps back from the impact and almost fell to the ground.


    The man who bumped into her ran away quickly without even apologizing.


    “Rosalie, are you okay?” When Yulissa saw this, she hurried over and checked on Rosalie.


    “Tm all right,” said Rosalie as she shook her head. Thankfully, although the impact when the man


    bumped into her was not small, she wasn’t really hurt.


    “What a rude person! Doesn’t he know that he needs to apologize if he bumps into someone!” said


    Yulissa angrily.
