The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 690

Chapter 690 

Even if only two people would celebrate this birthday, Rosalie chose a dress that matched the color of Jonathan’s shirt today. She then went downstairs and had breakfast with him. 

She initially wanted to prepare lunch for him. However, this suggestion was rejected by Jonathan, with no room for negotiation because of her pregnancy. He glorified his reason by claiming he didn’t want her to be exhausted. Moreover, he used the well-being of the baby to press her. Rosalie had no choice but to think about showing off her cooking skills after the baby was born. 

However, the lunch menu was decided by her personally. All dishes were food Jonathan usually enjoyed. She also chose his birthday cake. By drawing a sketch in person and spending a lot of time communicating with the baker, they finally confirmed the cake design. 

When Rosalie presented the cake to Jonathan, he looked moved and pleasantly surprised. His expression was like the best praise for her effort. 

“How do you..” Jonathan looked at Rosalie in surprise. 

“Do you like it?” she asked. 

Jonathan smiled. With his narrow lips parting, he said, “Yes.” 

This was a three-dimensional sculpted cake. The design of this cake depicted a small garden with a small house standing at a distance from it. 

In the center of the garden were two gray-haired elderly standing hand in hand. Three tiny figures wearing the same clothes stood around them. In addition, more figures in colorful clothes also surrounded them, and they were even smaller. 

A sentence was written in cream and chocolate on top of the cake: [I hold your hands and vow to grow old together.] 

This was not only Jonathan’s wish but Rosalie’s too! 

In the future, they would like to grow old together, surrounded by their children and grandchildren! 

Rosalie lit the candles for Jonathan. “Happy 28th birthday, Jon!” she murmured. 

‘If I think about what happened the past year, too many things have become different! 

We’ve only met each other a year ago. But one year later, on this day, I’m his wife,’ Rosalie remarked inwardly. 

Jonathan stared at her. “Rosie. You’re the one who gives me all my happiness.” Rosalie was somewhat dazed when he gently called her nickname again. She felt as if she was transported to the past, back to the very beginning. 

However, the way he called her “Rosie” was full of tenderness and love now, if

compared to the past. 

“Well, you shall make a wish quickly and blow out the candles,” she hurriedly said. Jonathan smiled as he closed his eyes gently to make a wish. Rosalie’s cheeks burned slightly as she looked at Jonathan. His statement just now made her blush at that instant, and her heart raced. 

If she was the one who gave him all the happiness he had, she would give him all the joy she could for the rest of his life. 

The light illuminating Jonathan’s face was a mixture of candlelight and dimmed lighting. Under such lights, his face appeared to be more chiseled and mysterious. His long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his lower eyelids. His nose bridge, which was high and straight, and his narrow lips, which were sexy and seductive, were irresistible. Even if Rosalie was only staring at him quietly, she couldn’t help but feel the experience to be visually enjoyable. 

After a while, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes. Jonathan’s eyes were as alluring as a beautiful spring mountain scenery and as bright as the reflecting lights on a lake’s surface. When he looked at Rosalie with such beautiful eyes, she felt as if her heart was pierced by something at that moment. She couldn’t help but wonder, “There is nothing more beautiful than his ethereal beauty.” 

After he blew out the candle, words escaped his narrow lips. “My wish is…” 

Just as he was about to announce it, Rosalie suddenly raised a hand and pressed it against his lips. “Don’t say it. If you do, your wish won’t be fulfilled.” 

He gently pulled her hand down. “But it’s you who said if I have any wishes, you’ll help me realize them if they’re within your capabilities. How would you help me achieve them if I don’t say it?” 

“That’s more like desire. I can fulfill three of your desires. As for the birthday wishes, they should be your… Ahem, birthday wishes are something you pray to God to help you achieve them. Something like business expansion or longevity,” Rosalie explained. 

Unexpectedly, Jonathan said, “But it doesn’t matter if these are my desires or wishes, because they concern/only you.” 

He lowered his gaze as he said that. With Rosalie’s hand still in his grasp, he gently raised the index finger of her hand, making a “one” gesture. “My first wish is for you to celebrate my birthday with me every year until I die.” 

Rosalie was stunned for a second. 

Jonathan continued to raise Rosalie’s middle finger and made a “two” gesture. “The second wish is you’ll never leave me.” 

However, he became silent after saying that. He kept staring at Rosalie’s hand but didn’t say his third wish. 

“What’s your third wish?” Rosalie couldn’t help asking.

“I won’t tell you my third wish now. I’ll wait until it’s truly needed in the future, then I’ll say it.” Then Jonathan murmured, “But… is it true that you’ll fulfill this wish as long as you can when I tell you my third wish?” 

“Yes,” Rosalie answered without hesitation.
