The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 435

His domineering yet amorous kiss reminded Rosalie of the kiss that night when she was still bleary.

Both incidents felt so much alike.

“Hence, at the time… did he truly kiss me while I was asleep?” she wondered.

His kiss almost made her breathless.

She was panting instinctively when the kiss ended, yet he rested his forehead against hers and muttered hoarsely, “Can you not like Lucas, please?”

A tremor ran through Rosalie’s body. “Jonathan, don’t you think what you’re saying is ridiculous?”

He demanded that she not fall for another man despite having broken up with her.

Jonathan’s face suddenly darkened.

“Does she know how I felt when I sat in the rental home watching the videos of her and Lucas together at the amusement park?” he questioned internally.

Jealousy devoured him whole back then.

It felt like death by a thousand cuts from an invisible knife when Jonathan observed how she looked and smiled at the man, especially when she took the initiative to redo his necktie.

The pain was so terrible that he found it difficult to breathe.

“So, do you insist on liking him?” His tone was sharp and severe.

Rosalie’s body shook abruptly. She had an inexplicable intuition that Jonathan would rob her of her freedom if she said yes.

It would be a piece of cake to deal with her with his authority and position in Strico,
