Chapter 124
Rosalie bit her lips slightly and sat down. She ate the food slowly with her right hand which wasn’t injured. Meanwhile, Jonathan sat quietly beside her, holding his chin with one hand and looking at her quietly.
Under the light, Rosalie’s eyelashes curled up naturally. When she looked down, it became more and more obvious. And it seemed that Jonathan’s palm could cover her entire small face.
Her nose was small, and her cheeks puffed up repeatedly because of chewing food, like a cute little animal.
Jonathan had never imagined that he would be so obsessed with watching a woman eat.
It seemed that the more he looked at her like this, the more he wanted to hide her in a place where no one could see. Only he could see her alone and only he could get close to her.
And no one else could covet her.
Although Rosalie was eating with her head down, she could feel that Jonathan had been staring at her.
There seemed to be an ambiguous embarrassment in the air.
She felt that her face was getting hotter and hotter, and even swallowing seemed to become a little difficult. He used to watch her eat as well, but at that time, she only felt warm and didn’t feel uncomfortable. Now….
Rosalie unconsciously sped up and wanted to finish the meal quickly.
At this moment. Jonathan suddenly said, ‘Rosic, do you like Calvin?”
Pift!
Before she could swallow the food, she suddenly spewed out. Then she coughed and looked at the food on the table in front of her, and she found… Some food was even on his body.
But Jonathan didn’t care at all, took her hand, and asked again. “Rosie, you haven’t answered my question yet. Do you like
Calvin?”
Rosalie looked at Jonathan blankly. She thought, “Do I like Calvin? Why would he ask me that? And… How did he know that I knew Calvin? I never mentioned it to him!TM
For a moment. Rosalie’s mind was filled with various doubts.
Rosalie’s silence made Jonathan frown slightly. Jonathan gently wiped Rosalie’s lips because there was tomato sauce on them.
“Yes or no?” Jonathan asked, yet his tone was mixed with gentleness and threat.
“I.. I have nothing to do with Calvin. Why are you asking?” Rosalie turned her head, trying to avoid his fingers.
Suddenly, Jonathan grabbed Rosalie’s chin and firmly fixed on her face. Then he lowered his head, his lips gently pressing against hers. He asked, “Really? If there’s nothing between you and Calvin, why would he help you up today and take you to the lounge in his arms?”
Rosalie was shocked by that. She looked at Jonathan’s handsome face that was so close to her. She couldn’t believe that Jonathan knew every detail of what happened between Calvin and her.
“Why, are you wondering why I knew it so clearly?” Jonathan smiled and continued, “So many people saw it at that time. Don’t you think it’s pretty easy for me to find that out?”
As he spoke. Jonathan’s lips were even closer to Rosalie’s.
Rosalie flushed and said in a panic. “Please, don’t…”
Jonathan stopped and stared at Rosalie, saying, “Then why don’t you tell me how you got to know him?”
“Because goce a thief stole Calvin’s bracelet and then bumped into me. That bracelet fell right into my pocket, and Calvin wanted to get it back. That’s why I knew him,” Rosalie answered in a hurry.
“Really?” Jonathan murmured. “How many times have you seen him since then?”
Of course, Rosalie had never counted that However, looking at Jonathan’s approaching face, she hurriedly counted in silence and said. “Three. Three times. The first time, he said that he wanted to thank me for the bracelet and treated me to dinner. The second time, I met him accidentally at the hospital where my grandmother stayed. And this time was the third
time.”
Jonathan’s eyes flashed. Based on his understanding of Calvin, if Calvin really wanted to thank Rosalie for the bracelet,
Calvin could’ve given Rosalie money directly instead of treating her to dinner.
In other words, Calvin had already taken a fancy to Rosalie at that time.
Inter
But Jonathan couldn’t understand why Calvin hadn’t been dating Loretta for long. In the past, Calvin wouldn’t be interested in another woman when dating someone already.
But now It seemed that there was an exception
“Do you like him, Rosie Jonathan asked Rosalie the same question.
Rosalie explained, “I already told you. I have nothing to do with Rosalie. He is ‘Mr. Gunner, the big shot in the entertainment industry, while I am just a sanitary worker” Clearly, Calvin and Rosalie didn’t match with each other at all. In Rosalie’s mind, it was meaningless for Jonathan to ask if she liked Calvin or not.
