The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 431

“Um… What about your younger brother?”

As he said this, her body suddenly stiffened. “Younger brother…” This word used to be very close to her, but now it felt distant.

“He… went back, returned to his own home. I only sheltered him temporarily back then,” Rosalie said in a low voice. She then sat back in her seat, lowered her head again, and started eating the food that had not yet been finished.

Lucas looked at Rosalie in a daze.

He thought, ‘Is that ‘younger brother’ who once seemed to want her all to himself no longer around?

Is she alone now? Does that mean I… might have a chance?’ This idea grew stronger in his mind.

Neither of them noticed a black car parked not far outside the restaurant.

The people in the car were staring at them through the window.

At this moment, Carlos didn’t even dare to breathe. He nervously stole glances at Jonathan in front of him, then shifted his gaze to Rosalie and the man called Lucas in the restaurant.

After finding out where Rosalie was, Jonathan asked him to drive over, and… he just kept watching her like that.

“When is he going to stop watching?” Carlos wondered.

At this moment, Carlos only wished that Rosalie and that man could finish their meal as quickly as possible.
