Chapter 121
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
Jonathan rolled his eyes at Alan, and then Alan heard some socialite around him gasping and muttering. âOh my! He looks so good even with his eyes rolled!â
Speechless, Alan had an urge to vomit blood, thinking. âJonathan was just rolling his eyes, and these love-struck women were exclaiming for that?â
As Jonathan took off his gloves, Alan abruptly snatched the gloves from Jonathanâs hand as if he had found something.
âHey, these gloves seem to be hand-knitted. The knitting is not so great, though, Alan commented on the gloves with a doubtful look. âBesides, the yarn looks old. Did some store trick you into buying these gloves? How could they sell you gloves like this?â
âWho said I bought them?â Jonathan said indifferently.
Alan looked at him with his jaw dropping to the ground, musing. âIf he didnât buy it, could it beâ¦â He paused before continuing, âCan it be that someone knitted it for you?â
Jonathan didnât answer, but his expression was tacir Alan felt his head spinning. âSo, it was really gifted from someone. With Jonathanâs personality, he wouldnât wear such a thing at all, he thought.
Not only did he wear the scarf and the gloves today, but he even wore them on such a public occasion.
âWho on earth could have knitted the scarf and the gloves? What kind of person would knit the mediocre scarf and gloves yet still make Jonathan wear them?â Alan mused.
Alanâs mind flashed through the rumor on New Yearâs Eve, where his friend left Leonard and ran to the woman he had rescued in a small town near Strico.
He even stirred up the local police station for that woman.
âWas it her?â thought Alan.
As he was lost in thought, Jonathan had already spread his palm in front of Alan and said, âGive me back the gloves.â
âAh!â Alan came back to his senses and was about to return the gloves to Jonathan when a voice sounded beside him. âThe glovesâ¦â
âThese are the gloves Jonathan wore today,â Alan quickly said. âAndââ
However, before he could finish his sentence, Calvin chimed in, âItâs hand-knitted.â
âGah! You saw it.â Alan stammered.
Calvin stared fixedly at the gloves and then looked at Jonathan in surprise.
âWhat? Is there something wrong with these gloves?â Jonathan asked. He could feel that Calvinâs face changed as he looked at the gloves.
âDid someone give it to you?â asked Calvin.
âYes.â Jonathan narrowed his eyes as he looked at Calvinâs gradually deepened eyes. âHave you seen these gloves before?â
Calvin looked up to meet Jonathanâs gaze and answered directly. âYes.â
At this moment, there seemed to be a sense of oppression in the air.
Alan couldnât help but exclaim, âWhat are you guys talking about? What do you mean you have seen it? By why didnât you bring your new girlfriend here today? Iâve heard that she was acting all high and mighty on the set today, and you ended up letting hier have eggs on her face.â
the way.
Calvin, Calvin glanced at Alan and said, âYouâre pretty hep.â
âOh, itâs nothing!â Alan said modestly. âI just happened to come across someone I know who told me about this. I heard that your girlfriend made a background actor kneel non-stop, but you blew her up in her face publicly and carried the background actor to the green room. Why? Are you going to dump your new girlfriend for that background actor?â Alan joked, thinking that he had long been accustomed to his friend changing his girlfriend frequently.
It would be strange for him if Calvin did not change his girlfriend every once in a while.
However, if this current little celebrity got replaced, she would be Calvinâs shortest-lasting girlfriend.
âYeah, I hit on her,â Calvin said calmly, but his eyes remained fixed on Jonathan Alan did not feel anything wrong, but Jonathanâs face darkened. Even the air around him seemed to grow cold and heavy.
âHey.Jonathan. Whatâs wrong? Why such a long face?â Alan asked in confusion, feeling an inexplicable tension in the Jonathan ignored Alan. He stared at Calvin with his dark eyes, and his lips curled slightly. âYouâre not going to tell me that that background actor is your girlfriendâs sister, are you?â
âYeah. What a coincidence,â said Calvin.
Jonathan smiled even more, but his eyes were icy cold. âIndeed.â
After saying that, he turned around and walked toward the exit of the venue.
Bewildered, Alan looked at Calvin, who was standing beside him. âIs Jonathan leaving? He hasnât been here that long yet.â
Calvin stared at Jonathanâs departing figure with a solemn look.
âDid you guys say something that I didnât hear?â Alan asked. He clearly understood every word his two friends had spoken just now, but now he felt like he might have missed something.
Otherwise, how could he not understand their reaction at all?
âNothing. I just find some things too far a coincidence,â Calvin said as he lightly withdrew his gaze.
He had heard from Alan that Jonathan seemed to care about a woman.
However, he did not expect that the woman Jonathan cared about would be Rosalie.
wwwww At this moment, Rosalie was eating takeout while casually scrolling through the video programs on her phone.
The video she was currently watching was a live broadcast of an influencer who was standing in front of the venue and live-streaming tonightâs gathering of socialites and celebrities in Strico.
The influencer indicated that those notables should have entered the hall, and many celebrities would also be there inside. Although she was not qualified to enter the hall, she waited outside, hoping to bump into them if any of the celebrities came OUL âLetâs see how lucky we are today. Shall we all wait together?â As the influencer spoke, she stroked various cute poses in front of the camera to charm her audience.
Rosalie was not particularly fond of celebrities, nor did she really look to see if the influencer bumped into a celebrity on the spot. She just treated it as a pastime for her mealtime.
The influencer had already started interacting with her viewers who were watching her livestream. She had everyone guess which celebrity she might run into today, and she even organized a voting session.
At this point, the person behind the camera suddenly reminded the influencer, âSomeone is coming out.â
Immediately, the camera on her phone shifted. And sure enough, a figure was rushing out of the venue.
The influencer got excited and hurriedly said, âI wonder who came out. It shouldnât have been long since this started. They must have come out for something urgent. Letâs move our camera over there to see who the person is. I hope itâs the celebrity weâve been anticipating!â
