Chapter 439
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
But Fiona quickly changed the subject. âBut you see, Calvin once mistakenly thought you were the person he was looking for. So I hope you can keep your distance from him to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. After all, we are family.â
Rosalie chuckled suddenly. âUnnecessary misunderstandings? What kind of misunderstandings are you talking about?â
âJust like last time at the film studio, you and Calvin had some physical contact, and it could easily lead to misunderstandings,â Fiona said, feigning shyness. âCalvin and I are together now. We havenât officially announced it to the public yet but in the futureâ¦â
Fiona intentionally left her sentence unfinished, leaving room for speculation.
âIâm not interested in Calvin. Fiona, you donât have to worry,â Rosalie said.
âBut wouldnât it be better if you could avoid appearing in front of hi as much as possible? Or⦠I can offer you money, and you can develop elsewhere. Open a shop or something. Wouldnât life be easier than it is now? Weâre family, and Iâm financially comfortable right now. How about I give you 400 thousand dollars?â Fiona said.
â400 thousand dollars?â Rosalie thought, finding it somewhat amusing. She suspected that all the money came from Calvin. Fiona, the usurper, was using Calvinâs money to drive her, the rightful owner, away from Strico.
âDoes Fiona think Iâm easy to fool? Or is Fiona just too greedy?â Rosalie wondered.
âIf Calvin finds out one day youâve deceived him, do you think he would take the money back?â Rosalie suddenly asked.
Fionaâs face went pale for a moment, and she tried to regain her composure. âWhat are you talking about? I didnât deceive Calvin.â
âWas it really you who saved Calvin back then on the mountain?â Rosalie stared at her.
Fiona forced herself to remain calm. âOf course. Is there any doubt about that?â
âWas it really you who saved him back then?â Rosalie replied.
âWhat do you mean by that? Who else would it be if not me?â Fiona insisted.
Rosalie looked at Fiona mockingly. âFiona, do you think Iâm easy to fool? Do you think Iâd believe whatever you say? Back then, the person who saved Calvin wasnât you.â
Fionaâs face grew even paler. Then she looked at Rosalie incredulously and snapped, âIf it wasnât me, then was it you? Do you think that just because I told you about everything that happened on the mountain when we were kids, you could claim it as your experience? You have already made Calvin believe you saved him before, and now you want to cause more trouble?â
âFiona, Iâve regained my lost memories, so you donât have to say so much in front of me. The more you twist the truth, the more ridiculous you seem,â Rosalie said indifferently.
Fionaâs body stiffened, and her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at the person before her.
âWhat⦠What are you saying⦠You⦠Have you regained your memories?â
âYes, I have. How else would I know that youâre so skilled at distorting the truth, Fiona?â Rosalie replied sarcastically.
âI⦠I donât know what youâre talking about,â Fiona stubbornly declared. Regardless of what happened, she wouldnât admit to the impersonation. âRosalie, are you trying to have a go with Calvin now that youâve broken up with Jonathan? Youâve gone too far!â
âThen why donât I explain everything to Calvin right now? What do you think he will do then?â Rosalie said coldly.
âYou wouldnât dare,â Fiona panicked. If Rosalie revealed the truth, everything she had gained would be in vain.
âWhy wonât I dare?â Rosalie found it amusing. âI donât see any reason to hide what Iâve done.â, In an instant, Fionaâs whole body was cold and trembled. A kind of extreme fear permeated her body.
âSo, Fiona, you should be careful when talking to me. Considering that weâre both Grannyâs granddaughters, let me remind you that Calvin isnât as easy to fool as you might think. Sometimes, excessive greed can leave you with nothing,â Rosalie warned With that, Rosalie got up, paid for her coffee, and left the cafe.
Meanwhile, Fiona was still sitting in her seat, trying to calm herself with a sip of coffee, but she was trembling and couldnât even pick up the cup.
She pondered, âWhat am I going to do? Rosalie has regained her memory! If she tells Calvinâ¦
No! I must find a way to keep Calvin from believing Rosalieâs words!
There must⦠be a way!â
After Rosalie left the coffee shop, she took a bus to where Matilda and Aiden were currently staying.
She found Amelia there, and they were packing up their belongings.
When Aiden saw Rosalie, he threw himself happily into her arms and told her he would be starting kindergarten in the summer.
âHave you found a kindergarten yet?â Rosalie asked, looking at Amelia.
âYes, I have. The head of the kindergarten there is very kind. She made a video call with us after she heard about Aidenâs situation and told us Aiden could attend.â Amelia smiled.
That was certainly a piece of good news!
âWhen do you plan to move to Gerton? Do you have a specific date?â Rosalie asked again.
âIn about two weeks. Iâm looking for a moving company right now. Iâll let you know as soon as we have a fixed date,â Amelia replied.
Rosalie nodded when she heard that.
Aidenâs excited expression turned dejected when he heard they were moving to Gerton. His head dropped as he asked, âWill you miss me when you canât see me anymore, Rosalie?â
Rosalie kissed Aiden on his cheek and reassured him, âOf course, Iâll miss you. We wonât be able to see each other often, but we can have video calls. Besides, Iâll go to Gerton to see you whenever Iâm free. Next time, Iâll take you to the amusement park, Aiden!â
Aidenâs expression brightened at the mention of an amusement park.
âWill Mr. Graham come too?â It was clear that Aiden had a good impression of Lucas.
Rosalie hesitated for a moment, not sure how to answer.
Amelia, who stood at the side, noticed her troubled expression and said, âThat depends on whether Mr.
Graham is available.â When he heard that, Aiden nodded and said, âLetâs wait for Mr. Graham. We can go together!â
âDo you adore Mr. Graham very much, Aiden?â Rosalie asked.
