The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 859

Chapter 859 

She found great satisfaction in the fate that befell Agyness and Yoel! 

“By the way, the recording from the scene, was it also found by the experts at Jonathan’s request?” Lillian asked. 

“No, it was Guille who found it,” Rosalie replied. 

“Guille?” Lillian’s eyes widened in surprise. “Are kids these days really that impressive?” 

Amelia was also taken by surprise, but given that her own child, Aiden, was already quite precocious, she wasn’t as startled as Lillian. 

“Yeah, it appears Guille is quite adept with computers,” Rosalie added. 

The three of them sat at the entrance of Amelia’s concession stand, engaging in casual conversation. Just then, Rosalie noticed, from the corner of her eye, a small figure making its way toward the nearby elementary school gate. 

The figure was familiar to Rosalie; it was the boy named Zekiah, who had left quite an impression on her. 

What caught her off guard was the way he walked now, each step marked by a noticeable limp. 

“Hey, why isn’t there any adult with such a young kid?” Lillian, who had also noticed the boy, couldn’t help but find it strange. 

Amelia quickly filled Lillian in on Zekiah’s situation. 

“This kid is in quite a pitiable situation. He’s an orphan who was adopted, but in his adoptive family, he isn’t treated very well. He has an older sister, who is his only source of kindness. However, she is relatively young herself, and what’s more, she has lost her biological mother.”

Lillian couldn’t help but think that their family relations were incredibly complex. “Exactly. If you didn’t know better, you’d think these two siblings were all each other had! Look, this kid got injured a few days ago, and he can barely walk, he’s waiting for his sister at the school gate,” Amelia explained, sighing with sympathy for the child. Still, she realized it was a family matter beyond her control. 

“He got injured?” Rosálie was taken aback. 

“Yes, I heard there was a conflict between his sister and their stepmother. When the stepmother tried to strike his sister, he stepped in and took the blow, to the extent that the ruler was broken. Their neighbor even called the police,” Amelia added. 

Upon hearing this, Rosalie felt a sharp pain in her chest. 

“Even a ruler was broken. Just imagine how much pain that kid must have

suffered!” Rosalie thought. 

She immediately got up and walked over to Zekiah. 

“What’s Rosalie doing…” Lillian was puzzled. 

“Rosalie had some prior interactions with that kid, and she seems quite concerned about him,” Amelia said. 

“Speaking of which, Rosalie was pregnant with three children before this, but she hasn’t found one of them. I wonder how the missing child is doing. Maybe she’s projecting her feelings onto this kid,” Lillian remarked. 

“Maybe. If Rosalie could find her child sooner, it would be great. We don’t know where that child is now or how the child is doing.” said Amelia. 

As a mother herself, Amelia understood how crucial children were to a mother. If one day, Aiden were separated from her, she feared the pain would be unbearable. “They’ll eventually find the child. If even a prestigious family like the Youngblood family can’t locate their child, then there are very few people in the world who can,” Lillian commented optimistically. 

At this moment, Rosalie had already walked up to Zekiah. As she got closer, she became even more alarmed. 

Zekiah’s uncovered skin bore obvious bruises from his injuries, and his 

once-lovely little face was somewhat swollen. It wasn’t difficult to picture just how much more swollen it must have been a few days earlier. 

“Does it hurt?” Rosalie couldn’t help but crouch down, her eyes level with the child in front of her. 

Although Zekiah’s face was still swollen, his beautiful, luminous eyes remained fixed on the school gate ahead, as if he hadn’t heard Rosalie’s question at all. 

For him, the only thing that mattered was when his sister would finish school and when he could see her. Everything else was of no concern to him. 

Rosalie lifted her hand, intending to touch Zekiah’s bruises, but he pulled away warily. 

“I just want to see your injury, there’s no harm intended!” Rosalie quickly reassured him. 

Zekiah stared at her for a moment before slowly saying, “I don’t want you to touch me!” 

“Well… how about I take you to the hospital to have a doctor look at your injury? It won’t hurt anymore after that,” she suggested. 

“It doesn’t hurt,” Zekiah replied coldly, then turned his head, ignoring Rosalie. 

At this moment, Zekiah emitted an air of resistance and detachment, leaving Rosalie feeling helpless. 

Just then, Lillian also approached and was shocked by Zekiah’s injuries. “Oh, God. The adults in their family are truly ruthless to hurt such a small kid like this.””
