Chapter 499
“Jonathan, when are you going to end this?” Rosalie asked in a low voice.
Jonathan’s movement paused slightly. He lifted his head, looked at her, and smiled at her just as he
had when they had first
met in her rental home.
“Rosie, there will never be an end between you and me!” he uttered.
He would never allow her to end her rtionship with him.
Rosalie had a difficult time falling asleep that night because too much had happened. The next day,
when she arrived at thew firm, Lawrence looked at her and inquired, “Is everything okay
yesterday? Are you really not injured?”
The call was abruptly cut off when he called her the day before. He attempted to call her again but
was unsessful, which caused him to be anxious for a long time and consider calling the
police.
Fortunately, she called him after that and told him what happened. Only then was he relieved.
“I’m fine,” Rosalie said. “Later, I will check in with the police to see how their investigation is going.”
“That is not necessary. I already went to the police station this morning,” Lawrence stated. “The man
who attacked you yesterday was a fan of Aubrielle. He was the mastermind behind the previous two
attacks. He paid for people to attack you. Furthermore, I have requested that the police find
someone to act out the spection you mentioned to me yesterday. In the end, they concluded that
the person wearing the ruby ring at that time should be in the driver’s seat.”
Hearing that, Rosalie was overjoyed because that proved that Aubrielle was the real driver.
“But did the man who attacked me yesterday admit that he was also the one who attacked me twice
previously?” she asked in confusion.
“No, it’s said that an investigation report was sent to the police stationst night with detailed
evidence of that man looking for people online to deal with you,” Lawrence exined.
Rosalie was stunned. “Who sent the investigation report to the police?”
“The police didn’t reveal it,” Lawrence said.
Rosalie lowered her head and thought, “Usually in this case, it must be that the person who
provided the information is unwilling to let their information be leaked, so the police kept it
confidential. And the only person who knew that I had been attacked twice was Jonathan. I was
assaulted once at the entrance to the residential area of my rental home. The other time, I was
kidnapped by those two men. So, could it be that Jonathan was the one who provided the police
with the investigation report?”
“Because of the new findings, the court session will be dyed. We will add Aubrielle as a new
defendant, and the police have also reopened the investigation. This time, there should be no
problem,” Lawrence remarked.
Hearing that, Rosalie showed a smile on her face. Finally, there was hope for Larry’s medical
expenses.
“You did a good job this time, and you are good at deducing the truth from details.” Lawrence looked
at Rosalie with a trace of regret in his eyes. “With your qualifications, it is a shame you are only a
legal assistant.”
Rosalie smiled faintly. “I didn’t give up being awyer again. I thought it was better to umte
more experience.”
She knew that, given her own experience of being wrongfully imprisoned, the customers would
abandon the idea of hiring. her as their representativewyer as soon as they heard it.
After all, if awyer was unable to prove their innocence and was wrongfully imprisoned, their
abilities were bound to be called into question.
As a result, even if she had awyer’s license, she would not get any clients if she really wanted to
take on cases.
“It is great that you are optimistic,” Lawrence said. “In the future, I will delegate some minor cases to
you. You can build a reputation first, which will benefit you in the future.”
“Thank you,” Rosalie responded.
After Rosalie left Lawrence’s office, the receptionist told her that Lucas had been waiting for her for
quite some time.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
Rosalie went to the reception room and saw Lucas.
Meanwhile, Lucas immediately became a little uneasy when he saw Rosalie, and his face turned
red. He appeared to have something to say but was unsure how to express it.
“What’s the matter? If you have anything to say, just tell me,” Rosalie urged.
“I-I heard today that Larry’s case is making good progress. It seemed that Aubrielle would be the
other defendant! Larry’s parents told me that Mr. Guzman called them and told them that it was all
because of the clues you noticed. I came here today to thank you,” Lucas hurriedly piped up.
“It was because you remembered Aubrielle was wearing a ruby ring that day. That was how I came
up with the critical point.” Rosalie smiled and said, “I should be the one to thank you.”
Lucas smiled and then queried hesitantly, “By the way, is Mr. Youngblood, who came to the police
station yesterday, the younger brother you mentioned before?”
Rosalie’s body tensed up slightly, but she didn’t want to lie and hide anything from Lucas. “Yes.”
“He is Jonathan Youngblood, right? I heard Mr. Gunner call him Jonathan yesterday,” Lucas said.
“Yes, he is Jonathan Youngblood,” Rosalie replied.
The shock on Lucas’s face was palpable. Even though he had guessed it, he was still shocked to
learn the truth.
“Are you and Jonathan siblings?” he questioned curiously.
Rosalie hesitated for a moment, and a hint of sadness and self-mockery shed across her eyes.
The word “siblings,” which used to be so sweet, hadpletely changed.
Seeing that, Lucas quickly added, “I’m sorry. You are under no obligation to answer if it is
inconvenient. When I saw the scene at the police station yesterday, I was just astounded. Jonathan
and Calvin both have feelings for you…” As Lucas spoke, his voice slowly trailed off. “I realize I
have overestimated myself now that I think about it. You are surrounded by so many outstanding
men, and I…
Initially, Rosalie wanted to let Lucas know that it wasn’t because of that that she didn’t like him.
Then again, it would be great if that could make Lucas give up on her.
Lucas deserved to be with a decent woman who was right for him. Rosalie, who was heartbroken
and in shambles, was not a good match for him.
“All right. That is all I have to say. I’ll take my leave now,” Lucas remarked, turning around to walk
away. However, before leaving, he seemed to have thought of something and continued, “By the
way, I think Mr. Gunner really loves you because he went to ask Aubrielle where you were after
knowing that you were missing yesterday. He looked like he was about to kill someone for you, as
long as you were safe and sound. If Aubrielle had remained silent at that time, he might have
actually strangled her.
Lucas was aware that he could not hold a candle to Calvin. He could never have done what Calvin
did.
He would be worried and sad about Rosalie’s disappearance, but he would never kill someone for
her.
