As expected, the car stopped, and Jonathan got out of it. When he saw Rosalie, he stopped in his
tracks, and his eyes fell on
her.
“I-I have something to ask you,” she said. Sincest night, she hadn’t taken a sip of water. At this
moment, her mouth was so dry.
“Are you looking for me? Do you have a short memory, or do you not take my words seriously?
Yesterday I told you not to show up in front of me again, yet you came here on purpose today,” he said
in a sarcastic tone.
Rosalie strode forward and grabbed Jonathan’s arm tightly. “I know you don’t want to see me again,
but… I’m begging you to lend me 400 thousand dors. I will pay back the money with interest. I really
need the money!”
“400 thousand dors?” He frowned slightly. Her so-called request was really unexpected to him, and
the mocking look in his eyes intensified. “What? It’s just 400 thousand dors. Did Calvin refuse to give
it to you and that’s why you have toe
to me?”
Rosalie’s face turned pale all of a sudden. The colors were drained out of her face. Her lips trembled,
but she didn’t say a word for a long time.
He looked at her calmly and said, “It seems that I’m right. Calvin really refused to give you 400
thousand dors.”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pulled her hand away from his sleeve bit by bit. “But why do you
think I would lend you 400 thousand dors? Do you think there is still a rtionship between me and
you that I would lend you 400 thousand dors?”
Her hand was pulled away from his arm.
“Rosalie, it was you who asked me to let go of you and disregarded my feelings for you. Yesterday, you
said that you didn’t regret it! In that case, you don’t have to beg me for anything. The fact that you can
still stand in front of me like this is already my greatest kindness to you!” He walked right into the
building as if he didn’t want to look at her any longer.
Rosalie stood there in a daze, her face full of bitterness.
Rosalie mused, ‘Was he kind? Yeah, I suppose so. I disregarded his feelings thoroughly back then and
embarrassed him to the

extreme.
Now, it is indeed his kindness that I can still stand like this!
It’s just… Wh
will happen to Lillian without the 400 thousand dors? She needs it for surgery and her stay at the ICU
ward. Will she really have to wake up without a home?
Even if they really sell the Quinn residence, will it be enough to pay Lillian’s medical expenses?’
Rosalie felt her heart sink as she thought of that.
In the CEO’s Office, Carlos looked at Jonathan’s gloomy face and felt nervous.
No one had expected Rosalie toe to Jonathan early this morning.
Carlos didn’t know what Jonathan was thinking. If Jonathan had no feelings for Rosalie, then yesterday,
Jonathan would have ignored Rosalie instead of dragging her into the CEO’s Office.
Carlos said tentatively, “Mr. Youngblood… Ms. Leighton is still standing outside the building.”
“If she wants to stand, let her,” Jonathan said coldly.
Carlos suddenly stopped talking and wondered if Jonathan had stopped caring about Rosalie.
However, he was shocked by Jonathan’s following words.
“Go and find out why she wants to borrow 400 thousand dors,” Jonathan said.
“Got it,” Carlos hurriedly answered and walked out of the office.
In the huge CEO’s Office, Jonathan was left alone. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked
down at the figure who was still standing in front of the building.
Looking down from his point of view, he could only see some faint ck spots, but he could still
recognize her from the ck spots.
It was strange. He kept telling himself not to care about her anymore, yet he couldn’t control himself.
He was worried at the thought of her pale and haggard face and her frail body.
“What am I worried about? What’s there to worry about?” Jonathan said to himself in his heart. “Rosalie
came here just because Calvin didn’t want to give her 400 thousand dors. I’m just her second
choice.” He chuckled to himself. “Have I been reduced to second best? If I was an ordinary person who
couldn’t even get 400 thousand dors, I’m afraid she wouldn’te to me at all, let alone look at me
again! I can’t even be regarded as second best! Ugh, I shouldn’t worry it anymore!” However, her
figure, appearance, and plea constantly appeared in his mind. Then a throbbing pain came from
about
his heart, which made him raise his hand and press it against it. “Am I still getting affected by her?”
His eyes became darker.
Half an hourter, Carlos walked into the CEO’s Office and reported to Jonathan about the
investigation, “Mr. Youngblood, Ms. Leighton wants 400 thousand dors because her friend Lillian is
seriously injured and hospitalized now. The medical expenses are expected to exceed a few hundred
thousand dors, and rehabilitation will be even more costly.”
“Lillian is seriously injured?” Jonathan was stunned. He naturally knew what Lillian meant to Rosalie.
Not long after they first met, she had told him that Lillian was her lifesaver.
“So, for Lillian’s sake, even if she said she didn’t regret it yesterday, she would show up in front of me
today and beg for money?” he wondered.
“Yes. Callum is missing. Lillian was found outside a vige near Strico and then sent to the hospital in
town for rescue. The police haven’t found out why Lillian was seriously injured,” Carlos reported.
“Do you know what happened between her and Calvin?” Jonathan asked, wanting to know why Calvin
had refused to give Rosalie 400 thousand dors.
The Calvin he knew would lend Rosalie 400 million dors, let alone 400 thousand dors.
“Lucas, a friend of Ms. Leighton, was used of sexual harassment by her cousin named Fiona.
Calvin seemed dissatisfied that Ms. Leighton was Lucas’s representativewyer. Last night… Ms.
Leighton had waited for Calvin at the gate of his mansion until this morning.” Carlos talked about what
he had investigated..
