The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 767

Chapter 767 

“But I like my original name Jen Leighton. Mommy, can I keep being called that way?” Jennifer pleaded, her smiling face all scrunched up. 

“Your brother’s name is Guillermo Youngblood, so your name should ne Jennifer Youngblood. Isn’t that good? Others will instantly know you and Guillermo are siblings. Haven’t you always wanted a brother?” Rosalie asked. 

Jennifer tilted her head and asked, “Can I convince my brother to change his name to Guille Leighton instead?” 

“Then, why don’t you discuss it with your brother when you meet him?” Rosalie suggested. 

“Okay!” Jennifer lifted her chin with the resolve of a little warrior ready to persuade her brother. 

Lillian found her goddaughter Jennifer’s antics amusing. “Do you really like the name Jen Leighton that much?” 

“Yes, I do!” Jennifer nodded eagerly. 

“Why? Is it because you’ve gotten used to it, and you’re not keen on changing your name?” Lillian guessed. 

However, before Jennifer could answer, Rosalie interjected, “She just thinks that the spelling for Jennifer Youngblood is more complicated than Jen Leighton. If I suggested changing it to Jenny, she’d probably agree immediately!” 

Lillian found it somewhat amusing, thinking, “So, she’s reluctant to change her name because it’s more complicated?” 

However, the name Jennifer Youngblood was undeniably a bit challenging for a child to write. 

Their ordered meals finally made their way to the table. Once Jennifer finished her kid’s meal, she ventured into the restaurant’s play area. Given its designation as a children’s restaurant, there were ample spaces designed for children to revel in. 

As Jennifer played nearby, Rosalie and Lillian continued their meal, occasionally glancing at the play area. 

“Are 

you planning to take Jen to meet Jonathan later?” Lillian asked midway through their meal. 

“Yes, we’ll visit the Youngblood residence,” Rosalie replied. In reality, after regaining her memories, she had attempted to call Jonathan. However, one of his numbers resulted in the phone being turned off, and the other was unreachable. “Maybe Jonathan’s phone has settings that block calls from unknown numbers,” she speculated to herself. 

Therefore, she decided to take Jennifer directly to the Youngblood residence.

“But Jonathan… He’s not quite the same as he used to be. Back then, when the Youngblood family claimed you were dead, he changed. The two times I met him afterward, he seemed different, notably more distant. I think it was because of the news of your supposed passing,” Lillian said. 

With a light chuckle, Lillian added, “I haven’t really bumped into Jonathan since then. As for Guillermo, it took quite an effort to find out about the kindergarten he attended. Trying to approach him proved tricky, though. Guillermo usually had an entourage from the Youngblood family picking him up, making it nearly impossible for me to get close.” 

What Lillian did not mention was that once, when she tried to approach Guillermo for a conversation, the Youngblood family’s bodyguards promptly blocked her, seemingly worried she might utter something inappropriate. 

Understanding Lillian’s discomfort with the Youngblood family, Rosalie offered an apology. “I’m sorry.” 

“What’s all this talk about apologizing? There’s nothing you need to apologize for. You’re back, and that’s all that matters. But, you should know, of the two kids Jonathan has now, only Guillermo is biologically yours. The other one, Wrenna, is adopted. Her birth mother, Agyness, is rumored to have a close connection with Jonathan. With you back, there might be some confrontation with that woman.” 

Lillian felt it was necessary to give Rosalie a heads-up due to the sometimes baseless nature of rumors. 

“I know. I’ve checked the news online,” Rosalie replied, gently biting her lip. “If Jon has truly invested his emotions elsewhere and doesn’t feel the same way about me, I won’t cling to him. But if I’m the one he truly loves, I won’t give up on getting back to his side!” 

After all, everyone believed she was gone. It would be understandable if Jonathan had found love again, even if it meant remarriage. 

Yet, she could not shake the feeling that Jonathan, like her, would not be easily swayed by others. 

In the years when her memories were lost, she encountered some remarkable men, and there were even some who held affection for her. However, she never experienced that flutter in her heart. 

It was not until her memories gradually resurfaced that she understood. Her heart had long been claimed by a man named Jonathan, leaving no room for any other emotional stirrings. 

“By the way, what about you? Any special someone in your life now?” Rosalie changed the topic. 

“Not yet. My mother’s constant harping on me being an old spinster is enough to drive anyone insane.” Lillian shrugged, a bitter smile briefly playing on her lips. In these years, even though she did not consciously try to remember Callum, his image would occasionally flicker through her mind. Perhaps it was because her

time with Callum was so blissful that she could not muster the desire for romance, no matter the type of man she encountered. Blind dates, too, proved to be a series of defeats.
