Chapter 340

As for Rosalie, she had been to jail.

In this small town, there was a natural disdain for those who had been in prison. Therefore, people would dish out criticism to Rosalie. Some even thought that Rosalie shouldn’t be here for the wake at all, because they thought she would disgrace the Lopez family and wanted the Lopez family to kick her out.

Every time the Lopez family heard this kind of speech, they were filled with anxiety. They were afraid that Jonathan would be annoyed and destroy the Lopez family.

Although Fiona was now protected by Calvin, Calvin had never said that he would protect the Lopez family.

On the day of Wilma’s funeral, Rosalie stood in the procession wearing black clothes and trousers. Her eyes were a little red, and she had obviously cried again.

Jonathan, who was wearing a black suit, stood beside Rosalie and accompanied her to the funeral parlor.

This time, the Lopez family deliberately chartered a hall in the funeral parlor so that they could accommodate those who came to attend the memorial service.

At the memorial service, Rosalie stood silently. When listening to Daniel telling her grandmother’s life story, she couldn’t help but burst into tears.

Those who loved her had left her one by one.

Her mother had left her, and so did her grandmother now. She wondered who would leave her next.

A kind of fear surged in her heart.

At this moment, someone was gently wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

She1 looked at the beautiful hand in a daze. The hand was so gentle and careful as if she were a treasure that needed to be taken good care of.

Rosalie turned around and looked at Jonathan standing beside her.

She thought, “Jonathan… He won’t leave me. He will stay with me and grow old with me.”

When Daniel’s eulogy ended, everyone began to pay their respects to the remains of Wilma one by one in order.

But when Rosalie was about to come forward, someone suddenly rushed out and pointed at her, saying, “You don’t have the right to go forward. You have been in prison and disgraced the Lopez family. You should stay in the corner! Haven’t you embarrassed your grandmother enough? Do you want everyone to know that her granddaughter has been in prison before?”

Rosalie’s expression changed. She recognized that the man was one of her pursuers in this town. At that time, she just graduated from college and was a novice lawyer. In this small town, she was well-

known and popular. And this man once came to her grandma’s house to propose marriage, but she refused him.

After that, the man spread rumors about her, saying that she despised the poor and curried favor with the rich. When she was in jail, the man and his family even gossiped about her whenever they met people in town, and said that they were lucky not to marry her.

She had heard of these rumors, but she didn’t take them seriously. After all, there were many people who attacked her with rumors.

But she didn’t expect that the man would slander her at her grandmother’s funeral.

“It has nothing to do with you whether I have the right or not!” Rosalie said coldly.

“Then let others judge who is right and who is wrong. You have disgraced the Lopez family. Why do you still have the nerve to stand here? I suppose even your grandmother’s death has something to do with you. Her health was damaged by you because she was so mad at your going to prison. Her lifespan had been shortened by several years because of you-”

Before the man could finish his words, he was kicked to the ground by one foot.

“Sorry, my bad,” Jonathan said indifferently, but then his left foot stepped on the man’s chest. The man suddenly screamed with pain and his face turned red, but he couldn’t shake the foot that was pressed against his chest.

Seeing this, Daniel, Edward, and Sarah of the Lopez family hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Mr.

Youngblood… We’re at the funeral. Don’t take him seriously.”

“If something really happens, it will be disrespectful to the dead.”

“This man is just talking nonsense. Mr. Youngblood, don’t take it seriously!”.

Jonathan looked at the three people in front of him lazily and replied, “But I think if grandma sees someone slandering her granddaughter like this, she would allow me to do this, right?”

There was a faint smile on his face, which made the three of them feel chilly.

“O-Of course!”

“Yeah, that’s right. This man deliberately came to make trouble because he was refused by Rosalie back then!”

“This kind of person isn’t qualified to attend the funeral. Rosalie is the treasure of our Lopez family. We won’t allow him to slander her! Besides, Rosalie is my mom’s favorite grandchild.”

The three of them were all defending Rosalie. Daniel even called the security guards and kicked that man and his family out of the hall.

The people who came to the funeral were all stunned. They thought they could bully Rosalie at will, who had been in prison once, but they didn’t expect that she would have such a ruthless boyfriend.

The face of the man who provoked her just now was still blue when he was taken away by the security guards. He covered his chest and howled, wondering if his breastbone had been broken.

Besides, the Lopez family didn’t treat Rosalie harshly at all. They treated her as a guest of honor.

And… They seemed to be afraid of annoying her.

Fiona looked at Jonathan and Rosalie coldly. She didn’t expect that her cousin, who had been in prison, would be protected like this by the famous Jonathan from Strico.

She had been to Strico and attended several celebrity banquets with Calvin, so she knew very well how,scary Jonathan was.

However, such a person was so protective of Rosalie, which made Fiona jealous.

Fiona thought, “Why is Rosalie so lucky? She not only saved Calvin when she was a child, but also dated Zachary back then. Even if she went to jail and was abandoned by Zachary, Jonathan fell in love with her after she got out of prison!”

This made her feel frustrated because she felt like she could never be a match for Rosalie.

“Sorry for the trouble just now. And I’m sorry to interrupt your grandma’s funeral,” Jonathan said to Rosalie.

Rosalie shook her head and answered, “Just like you said, if Grandma knew someone slandered me like that, she would definitely agree with what you just did.”

She knew that he was protecting her, even if his actions seemed too violent to some people. However, only the strong could survive in this world, so she agreed with his approach.
