Chapter 627
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
Calvin thought, âThe clothes she wore were the same as those in that photo, and Jonathanâ¦â Calvin looked past Rosalie and saw Jonathan sitting in the car.
The backseat door was not closed at this moment, so he could see Jonathan wearing that white suit as in the photo.
Rosalie approached Calvin step by step until she was two steps away before stopping.
âYou forced the car to stop because you wanted to look for me, right?â she took the initiative and asked.
âDid you and⦠Jonathan register for marriage today?â Calvin questioned in a hoarse voice.
âYes,â Rosalie replied.
âWhy?â His one word was almost squeezed out between gritted teeth.
âIâm pregnant. Itâs Jonathanâs child.â Compared with Calvinâs agitation at the moment, Rosalie was calm.
Calvinâs face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes fell on her abdomen in disbelief. He thought, âIs she really pregnant? I thought those words Jonathan said were just to piss me off.â But now, reality hit him hard.
The woman he loved had married another man and even got pregnant with that manâs child.
âIf he forced you to because of the child, I can-â
But before Calvin could finish his words, Rosalie interrupted him, âJon didnât force me. I did this out of my own free will. Iâm perfectly willing to marry him!â
âSheâs willing to?â Calvin questioned inwardly and felt a sharp pain in his heart. He felt that Rosalieâs words were piercing to his ears. âDo you love Jonathan?â Calvin asked as he took a step closer.
Rosalie was silent. At this point, she still couldnât even tell whether she still loved Jonathan or not. After all, the relationship Rosalie had was already in shambles. Could she piece it back to how it used to be?
âYou donât love Jonathan, do you? In that case, why would you say youâre willing?â Calvin continued hurriedly, âI can help you. As long as you donât want to get married, I will definitely let you regain your freedom.â
Rosalie suddenly had an urge to smile bitterly. Once, she hoped that Calvin could help her. She stood at the door of his mansion for one whole night. At that time, he was her hope.
But in the end, this hope turned into despair.
But now, Calvin said he would come to help Rosalie.
âCal,â Rosalie said slowly, âthis should be the last time I call you that. I wonât call you that again.â
Calvinâs body suddenly stiffened, and confusion and surprise appeared in his eyes.
âCalâ¦â Calvin reminisced in his head. In the past, he only wanted to find the little girl who saved him and then wanted to hear that person call him âCalâ again.
However, Calvin found Fiona, someone different from what he had imagined.
Fiona was no longer as self-reliant and principled as she was younger. Instead, she became vain, enamored with famous brands, aspired to live a lavish lifestyle, and wanted to become a celebrity.
Therefore, he didnât allow Fiona to call him âCalâ again. The name was like a taboo and locked away in his memory.
But now, she called him âCalâ again. Why was she doing this?
In his mind, he suddenly remembered that last time in the hospital, she also called him âCalâ and told him she was the little girl he met when he was a child!
But at that time, he thought she said that to save Lucas! âCould it be⦠Could it beâ¦â he thought.
For a moment, he almost dared not think about it.
Rosalie continued, âI appreciate you saving my life more than once. And I know your feelings for me, but I canât reciprocate your feelings. My feelings for you were never love. In the future, donât love me anymore or waste your time on me. As for your kindness in saving my life, I will definitely repay you if I get the chance one day.â
âWhat I need is not your repayment!â Calvin stared at her and said in a trembling voice, âTell me, are the little girl Iâve been looking for?â
youâ¦
âThe answer⦠Is it still important now?â Rosalie replied calmly.
âYouâre the little girl, arenât you?â He tried to grab her, but another manâs arm stretched out and blocked Calvinâs hand.
The next moment, Rosalieâs waist was held by a big hand, and her back leaned against a chest. In an instant, a familiar scent filled her nostrils.
âCalvin, what are you trying to do to my wife?â Jonathanâs voice suddenly sounded.
Calvinâs body trembled, and then he straightened his back. His eyes met Jonathanâs dark eyes, but the word âwifeâ was too painful for Calvin to hear. âI just want to know if she is the one I have been looking for!â
âHavenât you found her already? What else is there to know?â Jonathan said indifferently as if he was ridiculing him.
Calvinâs face suddenly darkened. His thin lips pressed into a straight line, and his whole body was tensed up. However, Jonathan ignored Calvin. The former just lowered his head and said to Rosalie in his arms, âOkay, I think youâre more or less done with what you want to say to him, right? Itâs time to go back to the car.â
âWait!â Calvin stood in front of them and said, âIf you donât make it clear today, no one can leave!â
He wanted an answer! Even if that answer would scare him and make him feel pain, he wanted to know the truth!
Jonathan sneered, âCalvin, since when do you get to order me around? If I want to leave today, then Iâll just leave!â
The two men confronted each other, and the atmosphere was strained.
The tense air around them could make one feel uncomfortable at this moment.
Alan, who had shrunk away before, hurriedly stepped forward to diffuse the tense atmosphere.
âEveryone has known each other since childhood. Why is everyone so tense? Letâs talk⦠Well, how about this? Weâll find a place to sit and have a cup of coffee before talking it out.â
However, Calvin and Jonathan ignored him.
Alan touched his nose sheepishly and thought, âRight. Iâm being treated like Iâm invisible again!â
Facing Calvin, Jonathan said, âYou should be grateful that you have saved her. Otherwise, you will be lying on the ground now!â
Calvin didnât seem to hear him. He just stared at Rosalie and repeated hoarsely, âAre you⦠her?â
