Chapter 1258
Rosalie had thought it would be hard to have her own children in this lifetime. But right then, she
already had three lovely children. On top of
that, there would be more.
“Perhaps God took pity on me, after all,” she thought.
“Since you are pregnant, you are not suited to take a ne in your current delicate condition. I’ll
drive you back to Strico,” Calvin offered.
“Thank you, but Jon had the driver and bodyguards stay in Lommore, so I’ll ask the driver of the
Youngblood family to drive me home,” Rosalie said.
At her words, a sh of gloom flittered across Calvin’s eyes. “Ultimately, she’s determined to draw a
line between us. Is it because she’s afraid that Jonathan would misunderstand if I were to drive her
back?” he wondered.

Following that thought, Calvin smiled faintly and concurred, “Okay, I won’t insist, then. Be careful on
the way back, and have a safe journey.”
“Okay,” Rosalie answered.
Shortly after, a ck Bentley pulled up at the hospital entrance. Rosalie got in the car, and the
driver headed back to Strico.
Calvin stood at the hospital entrance in a trance, looking at the car that gradually disappeared from
his line of sight. The smile on his face slowly faded.
Noticing Calvin’s nk look, Riley understood that Calvin was reluctant to part with Rosalie.
If it weren’t for Rosalie, Calvin probably wouldn’t take her side and help her.
“Calvin is also an outstanding man. But sometimes, love has nothing to do with that,” shemented
soundlessly.
In Riley’s mind, Nichs’ face shed past once more,
In the past, Nichs once asked her, “If I’m more outstanding than Zephyr one day, will you choose
me?”
At that time, she replied, “Even so, my love will always belong to Zephyr. I don’t love you, Nichs.
To me, he’s the man I n to be together with

for the rest of my life.”
“To be together with him for the rest of my life… Regretfully, fate gave me a hard p in the face,”
she scoffed inwardly.
Over the years in the psychiatric hospital, Zephyr’s voice and smile became increasingly fuzzy in
her memory. However, Nichs’ look,
word he said, and all the things he had done before her, grew more and more profound in her mind,
so much so that they seemed imprinted on her soul.

“Are you going back, Mr. Gunner?” Riley asked politely.
“You go ahead. I want to stay here for a while longer,” Calvin replied.
“Okay, then. I’ll be leaving first,” Riley said.
“Oh yes, I’ll be staying in Lommore for some time. If you need any help, feel free to contact me,”
Calvin said out of the blue.
A trace of surprise shed across Riley’s eyes.
As if answering her unspoken question, Calvin added, “Since Rosalie chose to help you, I will also
help you to the bitter end.”
Riley was stunned. “Just because of that? He should know that if I really were to ask him for help, it
would not be something easy. After all, what I’m doing now is no different from making an enemy of
the Scott family and the Summer family. These two families have always been deeply rooted in
Lommore. Yet, Calvin is willing to make such a promise,” she mused.
“But if you help me, you won’t be getting anything in return. Is that okay?” Riley asked.
In a soft and low voice, Calvin murmured, “Her happiness is my reward.” That was the answer he
gave her.
When Rosalie’s car returned to the Youngblood residence in Strico, Jonathan was already standing
outside, waiting for her.
At that moment, it was already ten o’clock at night. Because Rosalie was pregnant, the driver drove
very slowly throughout the journey, fearing it would be bumpy otherwise and affect the baby.
When Rosalie saw Jonathan at the door of the Youngblood residence, her eyes inexorably
glistened.

It was not only because they had been apart for ten days but also because she had another life in
her stomach that was a continuation of their bloodlines.
As soon as Rosalie alighted from the car, Jonathan suddenly stepped forward and hugged her. The
first thing out of his mouth was an apology. “I’m sorry.”
Rosalie was taken aback. “What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly apologizing?”
“I’m sorry I was too careless. I should have been more careful and paid attention to contraception
so you wouldn’t get pregnant,” he murmured in a low voice.
Only then did Rosalie understand the meaning behind his apology.
“Why should you be sorry? I’m actually quite happy that I can get pregnant again,” Rosalie said.
She initially thought there would only be the triplets in her life, but there was another new life then.
“Happy?” Jonathan narrowed his ebony eyes, but there was no joy in them. Instead, they brimmed
with worry.
Before Rosalie could respond, Jonathan had already taken Rosalie’s hand and said, “Let’s go in
first. The wind out here is cold.”
After they had gone into the manor, Jonathan told the help to leave first.
“Are the children asleep?” Rosalie asked.
“Well, they’re all asleep. They didn’t know you wereing back today. Otherwise, they would have
likely insisted on waiting until you returned,” Jonathan replied, looking at her t abdomen worriedly.
“Are you nning to carry the baby to term?”
Rosalie nodded matter-of-factly and said, “Since I’m pregnant, I naturally want to carry it to term.”
Jonathan went silent, a rare trace of hesitation on his handsome face. He was seemingly thinking
about how he should voice his words next.
That made Rosalie feel uneasy.
“Don’t you want this baby?” she asked.
11:15
Jonathan pursed his thin lips before he finally sighed. “I do. How could I not want our baby? But
when you were pregnant with the triplets, the doctor once said that your womb and uterus had been
traumatized, so you weren’t suited to have triplets. He also said that even if we kept the triplets, you
aren’t suited to have another pregnancy in the future.”
It was because that would mean danger.
It was also precisely because he was afraid that she would be in danger again that he chose to
have a vasectomy.
But he had never expected that even so, she still got pregnant.
Although such a possibility existed after a vasectomy, if he had been more cautious and returned for
a postoperative test at the hospital, he might have found out about it earlier and avoided this
pregnancy.
When he received her phone call that day, in which she told him the driver would be driving her
back instead of taking a flight because she was pregnant, his mind went nk.
It was not joy he felt but fear.
He once lost her for five years, and she was finally back. Right then, he absolutely didn’t want to
lose her again.
Only those who had lost something would learn to treasure it even more.
“We have three children, Rosalie. It’s enough, isn’t it?” Jonathan uttered in a low voice.
