Chapter 85
Loretta’s back broke out in cold sweat as she wondered, “I-Is he really…”
“What? Jonathan, do you know each other?” asked Alan in surprise as he stood at the side. As far asAlan knew, Loretta was just a third-rate celebrity. Logically, they should have nothing to do with eachother.
“Yes. I’ve met her once before,” said Jonathan indifferently.
Loretta’s eyes widened, and her heart almost leaped out of her throat. She thought, “It is really him….the man who lives with Rosalie! At that time, everyone in their family suspected the man might havebeen someone Rosalie knew from prison.
Who would have imagined that man is Jonathan? Jonathan, who is one of the most powerful people inStrico!”
Loretta almost fainted from shock. “What the hell is going on? Why was Rosalie living with Jonathan inthat shabby rental home?” Loretta wondered.
Calvin looked at Jonathan and Loretta in surprise before asking, “Loretta, why didn’t you tell me thatyou knew Jonathan before?”
Loretta trembled and laughed awkwardly before saying, “At that time, I didn’t know who Mr. Youngbloodwas. Then she hurriedly smiled at Jonathan and continued, “Mr. Youngblood, there seems to be a slightmisunderstanding between us. I would like to apologize for that.”
Jonathan seemed to ignore Loretta and looked at Calvin. “If there is nothing else, please make sureyou don’t bring along your girlfriend when you meet me. I don’t like seeing this woman.”
Loretta’s face turned pale, but she didn’t dare to say anything.
Calvin’s eyes flashed as if he had thought of something.
After Calvin and Loretta had left, Alan came forward with great interest and asked Jonathan. “What’sthe matter? Did Calvin’s new girlfriend offend you before?”
Jonathan didn’t respond. Instead, he drained the half glass of wine in his hand.
When Jonathan saw Loretta, it brought back memories of Rosalie. He thought, ‘As long as Rosaliestayed by my side, she could have a better life. Rosalie doesn’t need to do such dirty work or tireherself out. Plus, she won’t need to cater to anyone’s whims anymore. Why… would she refuse it?
And even… my touch seems to disgust her to the extreme.
She is just another woman. There is no need for me to care what she thinks about me! Jonathan keptsaying that to himself, but the frustration he felt in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.
Over on the other side, Loretta looked at Calvin uneasily and mumbled, “Calvin… Did I… somehowoffend Mr. Youngblood? He…
“Just don’t show up in front of him anymore,” warned Calvin as he looked at the person opposite himand asked, “Where and when did you meet Jonathan?”
“It was at my sister’s rental home, but Mr. Youngblood looked different at that time. Because our familywas involved in an argument with my sister, we also had a little conflict with Mr. Youngblood,” saidLoretta trying to undermine the actual situation. She was afraid that Calvin would abandon her becauseshe had offended Jonathan.
Calvin was surprised. He thought, “Rental homes? Loretta’s sister? Is she the woman that Alanmentioned two days ago? The woman that Jonathan went to save, which caused him to leave Leonard
alone on New Year’s Eve?”
“I really didn’t know that he was Jonathan. If this matter affects you, I can apologize to him. Calvin,don’t get mad at me, all right? I will be obedient after this. I will make sure to toe the line in the future,”begged Loretta, looking like a fragile young girl. She looked pitiful, with her eyes misting over withtears.
Calvin raised his hand and gently stroked Loretta’s lips. Loretta knew that this was Calvin’s favoritething to do these days.
Calvin loved her lips so much. He always said that Loretta had sexy lips, but strangely, he never kissedher on the lips. Even after touching her lips, he would wipe his fingers with a clean handkerchief as ifshe were somewhat unclean.
Calvin’s contradictory behavior confused Loretta, but she dared not ask him about it.
“There is no need to apologize. You are my girlfriend. You only need to worry about me. Regardingeveryone else, you can ignore them, said Calvin.
Calvin’s movements were gentle as if he was gently touching some precious treasure, contrasting hiscold and distant tone of
voice.
Sometimes, Loretta really felt that she couldn’t really understand this man. She didn’t know what hewas thinking or what he wanted.
“All-All right. 1-1 understand, stammered Loretta.
Calvin withdrew his hand and took a handkerchief as usual, wiping his fingers carefully.
Loretta bit her lips slightly and thought, “One day, I will win over this man and become his last girlfriend.In the future, I will marry into the Gunner family!”
At this moment, Loretta secretly swore in her heart!
The New Year soon passed, and on the eighth day of New Year, Loretta went to work in theEnvironment and Sanitation Administration. Apparently, many colleagues had watched the news andknew that someone had thrown things at Rosalie at the hospital entrance, so they were gossipingbehind her back.
“Rosalie, I hope no one comes to the Environment and Sanitation Administration and throws things atthe people here. Don’t drag the rest of us from the Environment and Sanitation Administration with youinto this problem.”novelbin
“That’s right. My parents have found out my colleague is an ex-convict and are worried about meworking with her!” “Yvette has so many fans, and Rosalie killed Yvette’s sister back then. I heard Yvettehad a great relationship with her sister. Those fans are all upset on behalf of Yvette. I wonder if therewill be any more aggressive behavior from her fans in the future. It would be terrible luck if we got hurtby accident.”
In the Environment and Sanitation Administration, there was no lack of people mocking and ridiculingRosalie.
Rosalie put up
with it silently and laughed everything off After all, this job was vital to her. She needed this job tosurvive. “If 1 get dismissed, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find another job for a while, thought Rosalie.
Yulissa said to Rosalie. “Ignore those people. They would be glad to see you quit your job voluntarilyand leave. But it’s hard
for anyone to find a new job at this point. Even if you change your job, there is a possibility people willstill criticize you.”
“Yes, I understand that,” said Rosalie. She lowered her head and focused on sweeping the road.
At this moment, a man who was rushing bumped into Rosalie suddenly. She staggered several stepsback from the impact and almost fell to the ground.
The man who bumped into her ran away quickly without even apologizing.
“Rosalie, are you okay?” When Yulissa saw this, she hurried over and checked on Rosalie.
“Tm all right,” said Rosalie as she shook her head. Thankfully, although the impact when the manbumped into her was not small, she wasn’t really hurt.
“What a rude person! Doesn’t he know that he needs to apologize if he bumps into someone!” saidYulissa angrily.
