The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 14

Chapter 14
She felt like she was straight-up being embarrassed.
Mandy turned around in anger and hurriedly left the place that embarrassed her, while Jennie hurriedly followed.
Rosalie just felt as if she had watched a drama. She saw someone smashing the car as soon as she got out of the mall, and that car seemed to belong to Mandy.
“What happened? Did she offend someone and get retaliated on?” Rosalie asked.
“Who knows?” Jonathan’s eyes flashed slightly as his thin lips parted.
“It’s none of our business anyway.” Rosalie took Jonathan to the bus stop.
Jonathan’s footsteps suddenly stopped. Rosalie turned around to see his pale face with a shocked expression, looking straight at the bus stop. “What’s wrong?” she asked worriedly.
“N-nothing,” he said. His expression had returned to normal. Just now… It was he who mistook a woman on the bus as that woman.
That woman who had abandoned her husband and son. She was unlikely
to be here at all.
“Don’t be like me, Jon. Don’t love someone too much, even if you want
to.”
He continued, “Love is nothing but the cheapest thing in this world. When she disdains you, it’s useless, even if you kneel before her.”
He added, “Maybe one day, when you really love someone, you’ll realize that there is a person in this world who can control all your emotions, your joy, and sorrows. She can make you feel as though you’re in heaven, yet she could break you as well. But if possible, I hope you’d never have to go through that feeling, Jon.”
“Who is that? Who is saying that?” Jon thought.

“Don’t say anything more, and don’t stay here anymore! It’s so cold… It’s so cold… I don’t want to stay here anymore… I’d freeze to death… If I stay here any longer!” he thought.
“I’m leaving, Jon. I don’t want to hear your father saying that he loves me but can’t give me the life I want! I’ve done my best for him and I can’t go on like this.”

“Who is this now and who is talking?” he thought.
“No… Don’t go…” There was a voice. “Then who’s this now? Oh, right,” he thought. It was he himself talking. He was begging that woman. If she left, his father would…
Don’t go! Don’t go! He desperately tried to catch her, but he could not, no matter how hard he tried. It seemed that the surroundings were getting darker and darker. It was as though he was drowning, feeling so uncomfortable that it even became difficult to breathe.
He struggled to hold on to something, even if it was just a straw!
Suddenly, it was as if he had caught something warm and a gentle voice sounded in his ear from a distance. “Jon, Jon, I’m not leaving, I’m not leaving. Don’t be afraid!”
“That voice… It’s Rosie,” he thought. It was Rosalie, who he called Rosie! Jonathan slowly opened his eyes and a beautiful face came into his sight. Those dark eyes were full of worry, and those pink lips were parting and closing, as though saying something.
Yes, she was asking him to not be afraid!
Rosalie finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him awaken. “What’s wrong, Jon? Did you have a nightmare?”
He breathed out a sigh of foul air. How long had it been since he had this dream? He dreamt that the woman left him and his father mercilessly. He dreamt that his father knew about her leaving, but did not stop her. There was only a bitter smile on his face.
“Well, yeah, I had a nightmare,” he said in a low voice. It was only then he found that he had been holding her hand tightly as if he was holding on
to his last hope.
When he was about to drown in his dream, the warmth made him feel as though it was his last hope… Was it her hand?
When did he ever regard others as his last hope?
He immediately let go of the hand and that warmth in his hand
disappeared. Suddenly, he frowned, and his face turned pale. He slowly curled up and covered his stomach with his hand.
Seeing this, Rosalie, who was relieved, immediately worried again. “Are you feeling uncomfortable?”
“It’s nothing,” he said in a low voice that sounded suffocating. “It’s just… A little gastric spasm. I’ll be fine later.”

Was it because of the nightmare? In the past, he always had gastric spasms due to men tal stress when he was young. However, he rarely had them in recent years.
She looked at his pale face and pushed away the bangs in front of his forehead, only to see a thin layer of sweat. His hair was wet because of that.
Rosalie poured a glass of warm water and helped Jonathan sit up.
