The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 241

Jonathan frowned slightly and took the phone Carlos handed over. After tapping the screen so that the video would play, his eyes suddenly turned icy.

There was a depressing aura around Jonathan. Even though Carlos knew Jonathan’s anger was not directed at him, he still felt like he would freeze to death when standing beside him..

Strico would shake when Jonathan was angry.

Besides, the Hamilton family touched Rosalie, the apple of Jonathan’s eye. Jonathan never let Rosalie suffer, but the Hamilton family humiliated Rosalie in front of others, and someone even took a video of it and posted it on the Internet.

Jonathan said, “Delete this video from the Internet. Don’t let me see it again! Also, find out who filmed the video and delete the original footage from the phone.”

“Yes,” Carlos answered.

Jonathan threw the phone back to Carlos, picked up his coat lying on the side, and walked out of the room.

Without asking any questions, Carlos knew Jonathan had gone to find Rosalie.

‘Over the years, Ms. Rosalie Leighton seems to be the only one Mr. Youngblood cares so much about. Fate is so strange sometimes.

No one expected Mr. Youngblood to fall in love with Ms. Rosalie Leighton.

The Hamilton family naturally did not expect it. If they did, they would not have done this to Ms. Rosalie Leighton!’ Carlos thought.

Jonathan drove his car and left the company. He dialed Rosalie’s phone number while driving.

However, no one answered the phone.

It made him more anxious, so he called the Youngblood residence’s butler and asked about Rosalie.

“Ms. Leighton went out in the morning and came back around noon, but she went to her room without having lunch. She has not been out since,” the butler replied.

“Keep an eye on her for me!” Jonathan quickly replied and ended the call. Then, he drove faster toward the Youngblood

residence. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

When he reached the Youngblood residence, he got out of the car and ran directly to Rosalie’s room, startling the housekeepers along the way.

They had never seen Jonathan in such a hurry. He seemed worried about something.

However, nothing in Strico could worry Jonathan.

The butler stood at the door of Rosalie’s room. As soon as he saw Jonathan, he said, “Mr. Youngblood, Ms. Leighton is inside. I knocked on the door, but Ms. Leighton refused to open it. And she locked it from the inside.”

Although he had the key to the door of Rosalie, he dared not open it without Jonathan’s order.

Jonathan waved his hand and said, “You may leave first.”

“The key to the door…”

“No,” Jonathan said.

The butler left. Jonathan raised his hand, gently knocked on the door, and said, “Rosie, it’s me!”

However, no one in the room responded to him.

He turned around, walked into his own room, and entered her room through the door adjoining the two rooms.

It was dark in her room. The curtains blocked the window, and the lights were off. He could only see the room through the sunlight peeking through the curtains.

Although it was dim, it did not affect his sight.

Jonathan looked around and soon saw Rosalie in a corner. She curled up with her arms around her knees and her face buried in them. It was as if she was curling herself into a shrimp.

He vaguely remembered seeing her curl in the corner like this before.

Suddenly, he felt a sting in his heart. The video he watched earlier played back in his mind.

In the video, Rosalie was slapped in the face before being thrown out of the mall. Even though the video was too far away to hear the conversation clearly, he could pretty much guess what the Hamilton family would say to her.

A trace of anger flickered in Jonathan’s dark eyes. It was anger against the Hamilton family and himself.

He should have warned the Hamilton family not to lay a hand on her! In that case, she would not have been subjected to such a humiliation today.

“Rosie…” He slowly squatted down and called her softly.

However, she stayed in the same position, motionless as if she was frozen.

He raised his voice slightly. “Rosie… No matter what happens, I’ll be by your side.”

Her body suddenly trembled as her shoulders shrugged. Then she slowly raised her head. Her face was pale with red eyes and obvious teeth marks on the pink lips under her delicate nose. He could imagine how hard she bit her own lip.

“Did you cry?” he asked, slowly caressing her red eyes with his long fingers.

Her body stiffened. Then, she forced a smile. “I… didn’t cry. I-I’m just a little tired, so I leaned against the wall to rest for a while.”

Jonathan gazed at the woman in front of him. She was a bad liar, and the forced smile on her mouth seemed to irritate him.

He said, “I know everything. You never have to force a smile in front of me.”

He wanted to see her happy smile, not the smile that would give him constant heartache.

While speaking, Jonathan directly picked up Rosalie and carefully held her. He walked to the couch and let her sit on it. He carefully checked her hands, feet, and exposed skin. He saw no other injuries except the bruised slap mark on her face.

Rosalie was shocked when he said he knew. “What do you know?”

He replied, “I know what happened to you today. Someone took a video and posted it on the internet.”

Her body instantly stiffened while she bit her lower lip again.

Even though she wanted to accept the humiliation and not overthink, this was magnified when she recalled it being filmed and published on the Internet.

“Why did I have to suffer these? I didn’t do anything wrong but had to endure this!” she thought.
