Chapter 266


    Loretta hadn’t felt this way for a long time. Even if she knew that Rosalie and Jonathan were


    together, she didn’t feel that Rosalie was overshadowing her. After all, she was Calvin’s official


    girlfriend.


    But now, Loretta felt like she was inferior to Rosalie.


    Calvin came to his senses and said to Rosalie, “What a coincidence. We meet again.”


    “Hello,” responded Rosalie in a simple manner.


    Calvin’s gaze turned toward Jonathan as he said, “I didn’t expect you would attend today’s


    banquet.”


    “I’m just here to let Rosalie experience things. After all, she will eventually need to get to know


    some people in the future,” said Jonathan indifferently. But the amount of information insinuated in


    that sentence was quite a lot.


    Loretta was shocked. “What did Jonathan mean by Rosalie will eventually need to get to know


    them? Can it be that… Jonathan is hinting that he will marry Rosalie in the future?” she wondered.


    When Loretta thought of this, a trace of jealousy rose in her heart. But on the surface, she smiled


    and said, “It’s been a long time since I saw you, Rosie. Speaking of which, I have always wanted to


    apologize for the grave relocation issuest time. Our parents were well-intentioned but had ended


    up screwing things. I’m sure it was just a misunderstanding between you and our parents. They had


    probably blurted some unintentional words due to their anxiousness. I hope you won’t take it to


    heart, Rosie. Dad has missed you very much these days. If you are free, why not go home and see


    him?”


    When Loretta said all this, her attitude was humble, as though everything that had happened was


    indeed a misunderstanding.


    Rosalie smiled slightly and said, “You don’t have to apologize. After all, it has nothing to do with you,


    right? Why do you need to apologize for that?”


    Her words were indifferent, but they made Loretta speechless for a moment. Loretta could only act


    like she had been wronged.


    Whereas Calvin could only frown and nce at Loretta. He didn’t know what Rosalie and Loretta


    were talking about, but it was obviously an unpleasant incident.


    “That’s enough. I’m sure you are tired. I’ll take you over there to have a break,” said Jonathan as he


    turned and looked at


    Rosalie.


    “All right,” replied Rosalie with a sweet smile.


    This smile put Calvin in a trance.


    Just as Rosalie was about to leave, Calvin couldn’t help but reach out and grabbed her wrist.


    Rosalie paused in her steps. She looked back weirdly at the wrist Calvin had grabbed and then


    looked at him. “Mr. Gunner?”


    Calvin finally came to his senses. He thought, ‘What is wrong with me? The person in front of me is


    not the one I’m looking for. But just now, when she was about to leave, I seem to have gone back to


    that year again. The little girl also smiled and asked me to get well soon and that we will meet again


    soon.


    But after I let go of her hand, I never saw her again.


    How


    many times in my dreams did I wish that I could grab hold of that hand and never let it go? And how


    many times did I regret it after I woke up? Why did I just let go of that hand back then? If I hadn’t let


    go of her at that time, I wouldn’t be searching for her so hard without getting any results.


    At this moment, although Calvin knew he should let go of Rosalie’s hand, his hand seemed to be


    going against his will. He was still holding onto her hand and didn’t want to let go.


    Just then, Calvin’s wrist was grabbed onto by another hand.


    “Calvin, I think you’d better release your hand. I don’t like to see my girlfriend being held by another


    man.” Jonathan’s voice sounded cold. His clear gaze was icy at the moment.


    Calvin and Jonathan had known each other for many years, so Calvin naturally knew Jonathan’s


    personality.


    Usually, although Jonathan looked cold sometimes, his gaze would be nonchnt. But now it was


    different. Jonathan’s gaze was icy, and at the same time, Calvin felt a pain in his wrist.


    Calvin even had a feeling that if he didn’t let go, Jonathan would straight off break his wrist.


    “She is just another woman. There is really no need to get into an impasse with Jonathan over this.


    After all… Rosalie isn’t the one I’m looking for. Hadn’t I already epted that before?” thought


    Calvin.


    Calvin lowered his gaze slightly and loosened his fingers, which instantly freed up Rosalie’s hand.


    “Sorry, I seem to have lost myposure just now. It is only because Ms. Leighton reminded me of


    an old acquaintance,”


    said Calvin.


    “She is not your old acquaintance. In the future, don’t lose yourposure like that,” said Jonathan


    coldly and left while he


    held Rosalie’s hand.


    Calvin gazed inscrutably at Rosalie’s back. And Loretta, who was beside Calvin, nearly wanted to


    scream.


    She thought, ‘It can’t be true, right? Actually… It should be true. If the painting I had seen in Calvin’s


    studio that he had painted was the old acquaintance, then I can almost be sure that the person


    Calvin is looking for is Rosalie.


    I have a clear impression of the dress that Rosalie had worn, the appearance of the little girl in the


    painting, and the silver bracelet that was so precious to Calvin. All of these would match up with


    Rosalie without any doubt.


    It is just that I will keep this secret in my heart and never reveal it to him!


    “Calvin, didn’t you say that you would take me to see some producers today?” asked Loretta. She


    tried to break the silence between them.


    Calvin nced at the person standing beside him. His inscrutable gaze turned into a kind of


    apathetic alienation. He smiled gently and said, “All right, I’ll take you to meet them now.”


    As he said that, Calvin took Loretta and walked over to the other side.


    Loretta held Calvin’s arm, but there was an indescribable uneasiness in her heart.


    She thought, ‘Even if I am his girlfriend and so close to him, the sense of alienation he emits makes


    it so that I am unable to get close to him no matter what.


    One day, I will make him submit to me! I want to be sessful and live a better life than


    anyone else!’


    Jonathan took Rosalie to a quiet and secluded ce.


    “You must be tired. Sit down for a while,” said Jonathan as he let her sit on the sofa.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    “I’m all right,” said Rosalie. But she was slightly nervous because she hadn’t attended a banquet


    like this for a long time. When Calvin had grabbed her like that, she had actually been worried for a


    moment.


    “Do you want something to eat?” asked Jonathan.


    Before Rosalie could answer, someone came over and said, “Jonathan, is this your girlfriend? Why


    don’t you introduce her


    to me?”


    Rosalie looked up and saw that the man who had walked over was the same age as Jonathan.


    Although he was dressed in a suit, the smile on his baby face made a favorable impression on


    people.


    Jonathan nced at the man and said to Rosalie, “This is my friend, n.”
