Chapter 586

“Let’s go. I will take you home.” Calvin took Rosalie’s hand and led her out of the private room.

Jonathan glanced at Calvin and Rosalie as they left before saying to Alan faintly, “Tell your men to leave.”

“Huh? Then what about them…” Alan pointed to the waitress with injured fingers and Jamus who was still kneeling on the ground.

“They can stay,” Jonathan said indifferently.

Alan then asked all the staff inside and outside the private room to leave.

Suddenly, only Jonathan, Alan, the waitress, Jamus, Carlos, and several bodyguards were left in the private room.

Jonathan held the waitress’ hand, gently stroked her index finger which was wrapped with gauze, and looked down as if he was thinking about something.

The woman looked shy, and a trace of surprise flashed in Alan’s eyes. “Does Jonathan really like this woman?”

But the very next moment, Alan was stunned by Jonathan’s words.

“If you want to get your fingernails pulled out so much, then pull them out. Let’s fulfill your wish,” said Jonathan nonchalantly before he let go of the woman’s hand.

The woman’s face suddenly turned pale, and her body trembled. “Mr. Youngblood… I… I don’t understand what you mean.” “Don’t you understand?” Jonathan ordered Carlos, who was standing at the side, “Explain to her and help her understand.” Carlos stepped forward and said to the waitress, “You and Mr. Lane are also old friends. You have a relative who once went to prison and stayed in the same cell with Rosalie. You must have found out from your relative that Ms. Leighton had her fingernails pulled out before. That’s why you have asked Mr. Lane for help. Together, you put on a show.”

After all, Jonathan’s previous relationship with Rosalie was not a secret in the upper-class coterie.

Naturally, people who really wanted to could find out easily.

Hearing Carlos’ words, the woman and Jamus, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately trembled.

“No… No, Mr. Youngblood… I… I really…” Jonathan did not bother to pay attention to what the woman wanted to say. He just turned her head and said to Alan, “Leave first. You should know my character very well. I’ll pay back tenfold to those who scheme against me!”

Alan and Jonathan had known each other for many years, so he knew Jonathan’s temperament very well. Looking at the woman who was scared and trembling, as well as the man kneeling on the ground who had not yet come back to his senses, Alan shrugged with little sympathy.

After all, there were too many women trying to get close to Jonathan.

But this woman should not have stepped on Rosalie to get what she wanted.

Alan thought, “Do they really think that they can attract Jonathan’s attention by pulling a nail? That’s so naive of them.”

Among them, Jonathan was the most cautious one. In Strico, nobody could-scheme against him.

“Mr. Yates! “Help me!” The woman suddenly rushed toward Alan, grabbed his arm, and asked for help in a panic, “As long as… As long as Mr. Yates is willing to save me, I will do anything!”

Alan sneered, “What do you think I need you to do? Since you want to set Jonathan up, then you should have thought about the consequences should your scheme fail!”

Alan shook the woman’s hand off and left the room. He wanted to have nothing to do with her or anything that happened in the private room.

Calvin drove Rosalie back to her rental home. On the way back, he said, “Next time, if Alan messes with you again, just call me.”

Rosalie was silent for a moment and then said, “Yesterday… On the bus… Actually, you could have woken me up.”

“Did you see that YouTube video?” He said, “I saw that you were asleep, and I just wanted you to sleep a little longer. However, I didn’t notice that someone was filming us and posted the video on the Internet. If you don’t like it, I can ask them to remove the video.”

He had always been wary of those with cameras, but yesterday on the bus, all his attention was on her.

He did not pay much attention to the people around him at all.

Although she fell asleep on the bus for only more than half an hour, he was content with every minute and second. In his heart, he even thanked the person who took the video and left him such a memory!

When he looked at himself in the video, he could not help thinking that it had been a long time since he was so satisfied. All he did was watch a woman fall asleep, and he could not even move his gaze away from her. He just wanted to keep looking at her.

“Then please ask someone to remove the video,” Rosalie said. In truth, she really did not like having any video that was related to her being posted on the Internet. It felt as if her life had been seen by everyone.

At that moment, Rosalie’s phone rang. It was Amelia.

Rosalie answered the call. Amelia’s bitter voice came through. “Rosalie, can you transfer 400 dollars to me now? It… It’s urgent.”

“What’s the matter? What happened?” Rosalie felt something was wrong with Amelia’s voice, and she even sounded like she had been crying.

“Hmm… Aiden needs to be hospitalized. Now, I’m still short of 400 dollars for the deposit. I can take it out from the bank, but it can only be done during the day,” Amelia said.

Rosalie was startled. “Aiden is in the hospital? Why does he need to be hospitalized? Wait, tell me which hospital you are in now. I’ll go there right now. As for the money, I’ll transfer it to you right away!”

After taking down the name of the hospital reported by Amelia, Rosalie ended the call. Calvin heard the conversation and said, “Do you want to go to Central Hospital now? I’ll take you there!”

“Thank you,” said Rosalie as she quickly transferred 400 dollars to Amelia on her phone.

She was worried about Aiden all the way. When she arrived at the hospital, she said to Calvin, “Thank you for sending me here. Sorry for the trouble.” After saying that, she hurriedly opened the door and was about to get off.

Calvin suddenly grabbed Rosalie’s hand and said, “If you need any help, just tell me. I will do it!”

Rosalie looked at Calvin and smiled. “Thank you!” Then she rushed into the hospital.

Calvin looked at Rosalie’s back until she disappeared from his sight. He slowly raised his hand and gently kissed the palm that had just held her hand as if her warmth was still on his hand.
