The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 629

Chapter 629 

Rosalie once felt that her father-in-law should not have abandoned such a young child and chosen death because of lost love. 

However, she figured he must once have loved his son deeply. Otherwise, now that so many years had passed, Jonathan wouldn’t still miss his father like this. 

“I will try my best to become a good wife and mother, and I’ll handle this marriage well,” she said seriously, and she thought the same in her heart. 

Now that she had chosen this path, she wanted to do it justice. Even if the marriage between her and Jonathan was held together by just the children, she still hoped that, at the very least, the children would live in a harmonious family rather than a family full of disputes and resentment. 

When she finished speaking, she turned around and found that Jonathan was looking at her. His dark eyes seemed to reflect the dim light that surrounded them. 

“What I just said is… true.” Facing Jonathan’s gaze, Rosalie was a little uncomfortable. 

“Then would you swear on it?” Jonathan uttered slowly. His cold voice sounded a little solemn in the quiet ancestral hall. 

“Swear on it?” Rosalie was stunned. 

“Yes, swear in front of my father’s photo that you will never leave me again! Swear that you’ll be by my side till the end of your life!” Jonathan’s voice poured into Rosalie’s ears like a strong stream, pressing on 

her heart. 

The vow was much too heavy. 

Rosalie pursed her lips and kept silent. 

Jonathan chuckled lightly. There was a hint of irony in his laughter. “Let’s go back to the house.” Even if Rosalie didn’t want to swear on it, it wouldn’t matter. After all, in this lifetime, Jonathan would never let her leave his side again. 

However, when Jonathan turned around and was about to leave, Rosalie’s voice sounded from behind him. “I swear!” 

Jonathan’s footsteps suddenly halted, and he looked back rather incredulously. He saw Rosalie’s slender figure facing the photo, while Rosalie was saying clearly, “From now on, unless Jon wants to end this marriage, I shall never leave him. For the rest of my life till the day of my death, I will be with him. Dad, please be our witness!” 

Rosalie’s voice was gentle but firm. Her beautiful profile, vaguely illuminated by the dim light, looked extremely attractive. 

Then Rosalie turned her head and looked at Jonathan, smiling slightly. “Now, will you believe what I said?” 

Jonathan felt as though a ripple was spreading across his heart. 

He thought that if he used their children Lillian’s treatment to force Rosalie to marry him, Rosalie would be reluctant. She might even be sad or cry miserably. Even worse, Rosalie would be resentful toward him. 

Jonathan had considered all kinds of possibilities and even told himself that he didn’t have to care about Rosalie’s reaction. All he wanted was just to bind her to him. 

However, Jonathan didn’t expect that Rosalie would face their marriage with such an attitude. When she told Calvin that she was doing it willingly, she knew that Jonathan, who was standing beside her, must have been filled with a sudden burst of joy. 

But at that time, Jonathan had told himself not to easily believe what Rosalie said. If he really believed Rosalie’s words, maybe in the end, all he would get would be an overwhelming disappointment. 

Without expectation, Jonathan would not be disappointed.

Now, however, as Rosalie looked at Jonathan firmly and smiled softly, she looked quiet and gentle. He felt as though he was looking at the version of her from long ago, the one that would take him seriously, love him, and say that she wanted to protect him. 

Rosalie, whom Jonathan affectionately called “Rosalie,” was also the first woman Jonathan fell in love with. He wondered, “So, do I continue to let myself sink further into this? Do I give her everything, including all my trust and dignity?” 

Jonathan pursed his thin lips and approached Rosalie step by step, gazing at her steadily with his dark 

eyes. 

Rosalie didn’t avoid Jonathan’s gaze but looked straight at him. 

Finally, Jonathan raised his hands and took Rosalie in his embrace. “Rosalie, I will trust you once more. Just once more.” 

He believed that she would really live up to what she had just sworn and that she would do as she promised. 

In fact… it was not so much that he believed her as he wanted to believe her. He truly wanted what she just said to become reality. 

Rosalie stayed within Jonathan’s embrace, feeling his familiar vibe. She wondered, “If he’s willing to trust me, does that mean our marriage can continue smoothly? No matter how much trust he has in me now, at least, he is willing to trust me for the time being, and that should be a good thing!” 

Alan sent Calvin back to his mansion, but Calvin didn’t want to enter it. Instead, he stood at the entrance of the mansion, lost in his thoughts. 

Alan had no choice but to stand with him. 

Calvin fixed his dark eyes on the spot he was standing on. It was the same spot where Rosalie stood the other day. 

At this moment, Calvin felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
