The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 409

Chapter 409 

Elodia’s eyes lit up suddenly, and she became excited. 

When Rosalie came out from the interview, she bumped into Elodia. 

“Rosalie, why did you come here for an interview? Does your boyfriend know about this? If you want to return to the legal field, I’m sure your boyfriend can give you a law firm as a gift,” Elodia remarked, wearing a feigned smile. 

Upon hearing Elodia’s words, the colleague next to Elodia was surprised. She looked at Rosalie again and said, “Elodia, are you joking? Can her boyfriend really give her a law firm?” 

“How could I be joking?” Elodia explained with feigned kindness, “Her boyfriend is Jonathan Youngblood. In Strico, it’s easy for him to provide a law firm.” 

However, the moment she said this, a burst of laughter came from the surrounding people. 

“Elodia, are you sure about this? You’re telling me that her boyfriend is Jonathan Youngblood?” 

“Even if it’s a joke, there should be a limit! If her boyfriend is Jonathan Youngblood, then my boyfriend is Calvin Gunner!” 

“Indeed, we’re lawyers. Everything we do must be based on evidence. If Jonathan hears this, he might sue you for defamation.” 

“I’m not talking nonsense. It is true.” Elodia added seriously, “Rosalie, you should clarify it! They all think I’m kidding. Jonathan IS your boyfriend, and he takes good care of you!” 

The more serious Elodia said it, the more she inadvertently elevated Rosalie’s status, and the surrounding laughter grew louder. 

Rosalie glanced at Elodia coldly and knew the latter did this to embarrass her. 

Rosalie simply walked past Elodia and was about to leave. 

Elodia did not want to miss this opportunity. She immediately grabbed Rosalie and said, “Rosalie, say something! Am I not right? Isn’t Jonathan your boyfriend? You can’t let others laugh at me.” 

On the surface, Elodia seemed to want to speak for Rosalie. However, she actually wanted to find out whether Rosalie was Jonathan’s girlfriend or not. 

Rosalie stared at Elodia, her gaze cold and calm as if they could pierce through people’s hearts. “I think you like to let others laugh at me very much. It seems that even though you change your workplace, you still haven’t changed.” 

“You…” Elodia’s face suddenly turned red. 

Those who worked in the firm were not naïve individuals. Upon hearing this, those who had been cheering and jesting began to realize something and regarded Elodia with a different perspective. 

Rosalie did not bother to pay attention to Elodia’s thoughts. She directly shook off her hand and walked out of the firm 

Elodia glared at Rosalie’s back with a deep sense of resentment. She was becoming more convinced of her own speculations that Rosalie must have broken up with Jonathan. Otherwise, Rosalie would not be dressed so plainly. Her attire was even shabbier than that of an average passerby. 

At that moment, the receptionist appeared to recall something and chimed in, “Actually, Rosalie should be single. When I called her for the interview yesterday, I inquired about her relationship status because Mr. Guzman mentioned that he wouldn’t hire an assistant who is married or planning to get married within two years.” 

Therefore, in principle, the people who came for the interview that day should all be single. 

Hearing this, Elodia was excited again. 

“My speculation is correct! Jonathan has dumped Rosalie! So what if Rosalie was once Jonathan’s girlfriend? Her current circumstances are even more unfavorable than mine!” Elodia thought. 

Aside from Jonathan, even Calvin, the scion of the entertainment industry, had been protective of Rosalie back then. However, Elodia had recently come across trending topics on the internet. It appeared that Calvin had a new girlfriend named Fiona. 

It appeared that the woman still aspired to enter the entertainment industry through her association with Calvin. Many individuals commented that as long as Calvin supported someone, even a pig could become the best actress in the industry. Judging from Rosalie’s current circumstances, it seemed like Calvin had long forgotten her. 

Thinking about this, Elodia could not help but chuckle inwardly. She was eager to see how Rosalie could maintain her arrogance without the support of Jonathan and Calvin. 

In the presidential suite of the hotel, Amelia stared at Warren, who was seated on the couch not far away, engrossed in his work on a laptop resting on his lap. 

She had been detained by him since last night. 

If the situation continued, the sky would turn dark again. 

Considering the current circumstances, it remained uncertain how long Warren might decide to detain her. 

She had to call the staff at the diner and ask them to take a one-day break. 

Thinking of Warren’s request for a baby last night, Amelia felt the situation was ridiculous. 

“What does this man think I am? Am I just an instrument for him? When he wants to have a baby, I should give birth to one. But when he doesn’t want one, I should not bear any,” Amelia thought. 

Amelia could not help but mock herself inwardly, feeling like she was nothing more than an instrument indeed. From the very start, she had been nothing but a means for him to exact revenge. 

In his heart, the only one Warren truly loved was Irene. 

He lavished Irene with tender love and care while reserving only cruelty for Amelia.
