The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 534

Chapter 534 

Jealousy surged incessantly within Fiona as she observed Calvin’s eyes fixating on Rosalie’s back. “I wonder how are Rosalie and Jonathan now. Although they’ve broken up, I heard they still frequently keep in touch.” 

Fiona’s last sentence was wholly baseless, simply meant to arouse Calvin’s disgust of Rosalie. 

To her dismay, once she said that, Calvin turned his head and looked at her with a particularly icy gaze. 

Fiona trembled, sensing that her thoughts were about to be seen through. 

“Fiona, you should know that Rosalie is the one I love. I don’t wish to hear you speak badly of her before me again.” Calvin stated coldly. 

Fiona mumbled, “I… I’m not. I just-” 

“Just what?” Calvin’s dark, emotionless eyes, accompanied by his frosty voice, made her feel as if there was an invisible pressure around her, leaving her almost breathless. 

Fiona was a little stunned. Ever since she pretended to be the childhood Rosalie and reunited with Calvin, he had always been gentle and polite to her. Even when she did something wrong at times, he never once faulted her. 

Yet now, he was being so aloof. 

Suddenly, her mind flashed with the comments about Calvin she had seen online. 

She thought, ‘Aloof, cold-hearted, and ruthless… Maybe this is the real him, and the Calvin I once thought I knew was merely a facade he put on because he believed I was his life savior… 

In fact, that kind of gentleness and tolerance of his is just for that little girl who saved him in his childhood! It’s not truly for 

me! 

And now that he’s fallen for Rosalie, this gentleness and tolerance has been shifted to her? 

As this idea ran through Fiona’s mind, all she felt was her body gradually freezing up. 

“Fiona, you saved me, so no matter what happens in the future, I will ensure you live a luxurious, worry-free life,” Calvin stated frigidly. “But what I feel for you is merely that friendship we had as children. There is nothing else.” 

This revelation was undoubtedly like a hard slap across her face, causing her cheeks to burn up in mortification. Even though he had hinted obscurely, Fiona knew Calvin was warning her not to think about anything she shouldn’t! 

Meanwhile, at the mention of Calvin’s words, something glinted in the eyes of that ace manager, who was standing behind 

Fiona. 

The manager thought, ‘Looks like Mr. Gunner indeed has nothing to do with this Fiona except for their childhood bond. Pfft! To think she’s always liked showing off about how good her relationship with Mr. Gunner is to others. What a joke! Sometimes, the more high-profile one is now, the more likely they will fall to rock bottom in the future. By then, if she really provokes Mr. Gunner and causes him to lose the sole affection he has left for her, she can only go back to square one.’ 

The ace manager stared stonily at Fiona with traces of mockery and disdain in his eyes, thinking, “Despite having opportunities and resources, some people are destined to achieve nothing, considering their vision and limitations!” 

Concurrently, Rosalie came to Irene and Warren and said, “Hello, Mr. York, Ms. Fletcher!” 

“It’s you.” Warren looked at the woman in front of him with slight surprise, for he had seen her several times before. He remembered that she was likely Jonathan’s woman. 

Moreover, Rosalie had taken care of Aiden before. In other words, she was definitely acquainted with Amelia. 

In an instant, Warren’s mind flickered with Amelia’s face again. 

“I’m Rosalie Leighton, the representative lawyer in charge of Ms. Amelia Haab’s custody case.” Rosalie introduced herself. 

As soon as Amelia’s name was brought up, Irene, standing beside Warren, abruptly frowned. “What are you here for? Did Amelia ask you to plead for her? We won’t compromise about the custody of the child. He will only live a hard life with her.” Rosalie’s gaze fell on Irene’s face. The latter was not mesmerizingly beautiful and was only considered decent-looking, but her fragile appearance worked wonders at evoking the desire of men’s instinct to protect. 

“No, Ms. Haab didn’t ask me to plead on her behalf. I’m here today specifically for you, Ms. Fletcher.” Rosalie looked straight 

at Irene. 

“For me?” Irene was momentarily taken aback. “What reason could you possibly have?” 

“Of course, I have one,” Rosalie answered indifferently. “You’ve been sending people to cause trouble at Ms. Haab’s food cart non-stop lately. I’m here to ask you when you plan to stop, Ms. Fletcher.” 

Hearing Rosalie’s words, Irene immediately furrowed her brows unhappily. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.
