The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 29

“Dad, you must be missing Melanie too! It’s ridiculous that Rosalie felt no guilt at all toward Melanie’s death when I saw her that day. Yvette said.

“That’s enough. Don’t mention that woman anymore, Howard replied.

As they spoke, footsteps could be heard from the stairs. They looked up and saw Jonathan walking down the stairs.

“You wanted to see me? Is something the matter?” Jonathan asked indifferently as he swept his gaze over the two.

Seeing Jonathan’s cold eyes. Yvette felt her body stiffen. This was the man that Melanie fell in love with back then.

Yvette remembered that Melanie once told her dreamily. “Yvette, I thought I would never get a man like Jonathan in my life. He is too cold and rational. Even if you hug him, it would feel like he is without any warmth. He is like exquisite porcelain, where you can see the surface but never the insides.”

Yvette also felt the same way. Every time she saw Jonathan, she felt that he was beyond comprehension.

Therefore, even if Jonathan’s good looks were beyond compare, and he had the Youngblood Group behind him, Yvette had never considered going after him.

This man was so scary and cold.

Even though Melanie loved Jonathan so much that she finally convinced Jonathan to agree to get married, Yvette felt that Jonathan had never truly loved Melanie.

At Melanie’s funeral, Jonathan did not shed a single tear nor show any signs of sadness from beginning to end.

Jonathan, Yvette was ignorant and caused some trouble. I’ve already lectured her about it. We hope that you can attend Yvette and Zachary’s engagement party. Yvette is Melanie’s only sister and I think Melanie would also wish that you could attend Yvette’s engagement party,” Howard said earnestly.

Jonathan looked at Howard with a fake smile, which made Howard feel that his throat seemed to have dried up and he could not speak anymore.

Howard had been in the business field for many years, but right now, he seemed to have been suppressed in front of someone who almost became his son-in-law. It was as though Jonathan had seen through Howard’s thoughts and plans.

“She was rather ignorant. Let’s leave aside her lie about losing the ring. Even if she did lose a stupid ring, what about it? Why did she trouble so many people to find it for her? Mr. Hamilton, it seems you’ve taught your daughter well,” Jonathan said with a faint smile.

Howard smiled awkwardly.

Yvette blushed. She was the daughter of the Hamilton family and was also a celebrity. Everywhere she went, there were people who looked up to her. She had never been satirized like this before.

However, Jonathan was the one who was satirizing her at this moment. She had to bear it no matter what happened.

“It’s not impossible for me to attend the engagement party.” Jonathan slowly stood up, adding, “Since your daughter likes looking for things so much, why doesn’t she help me find something?”

The father and daughter duo both thought, “What is he hinting at?”

Howard and Yvette looked at Jonathan, feeling confused.

Jonathan walked to one side of the living room and opened the glass sliding door. There was an artificial pond outside. Jonathan threw a ring into the pond and said to Howard, “I will attend the engagement party when your daughter finds the ring

The father and daughter duo were dumbfounded.

They thought. “Are they supposed to find a tiny little ring like that in the pond? He has to be kidding!”

Jonathan ordered the housekeeper beside him, “Watch over them. Make sure Ms. Hamilton finds it personally. They can leave when the ring is found. If they insist on leaving before that…”

He paused and glanced at the two, who were still dumbfounded. “Then they will be banned from setting foot into this house ever again.”

The father and daughter duo shuddered immediately.

Jonathan’s words undoubtedly told them that if they left without finding the ring, it would mean a complete falling out with the Youngblood family.

Seeing Jonathan leave, Howard and Yvette looked at each other. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Although the pond before them was not very deep or large, it was still about 1,000 square feet in size. The bottom of the pool was covered with sludge. It would not be easy to find a small ring.

Yvette was about to cry. “Dad, what should I do? Do you really want me to get in there and look for the ring? It’s so cold. How can I find the ring on my own?”

“Solve the problems you caused yourself. You should know what will happen to our family if we really had a falling out with the Youngblood family! Howard’s face darkened.

The future of the Hamilton family was at stake. Even if Yvette was his daughter, he could no longer let her have her way.

Yvette was silent. She naturally knew that the Hamilton family relied on the Youngblood Group for several big deals. If Jonathan really became their enemy, it would be a devastating blow to the Hamilton family.

Yvette had no choice but to walk into the pool and look for that little ring.

She did not expect Jonathan to avenge Rosalic. Whatever embarrassment Yvette made Rosalie go through, she had to suffer even greater humiliation.

When Jonathan returned to the rental home, he saw that Rosalie was washing clothes.

Her hands were soaked in cold water and had turned red from the chill

“Why didn’t you wash them with hot water?” he asked with a frown.

“Hot water needs to be boiled, which wastes electricity. Besides, after washing with cold water for a while, your hands will turn warm, Rosalie said, rinsing the clothes with water again before squeezing the water out and hanging it up to dry.

He held her hands, which were cold and icy.

“Wash the clothes with hot water next time. If it wastes electricity, so be it. I can earn the money,” he said.

She laughed, then raised her hand and gently flicked his forehead. “You should save as much as you can. There will be plenty of chances to

spend in the future. Did you have fun having dinner with your colleagues tonight?”

“It was quite good, Jonathan replied. Dining with colleagues was just an excuse he made for that night. If he was right. Yvette should still be looking for the ring in the pond at the Youngblood residence right now.

He wondered how long it would take for Yvette to find the ring.

“It seems to have grown a bit longer.” Rosalie’s soft voice brought Jonathan back to his senses. The woman in front of him raised her hand and gently touched the bangs on his forehead.

“Jon, would you like me to trim your bangs for you? It’s too long. It’s not convenient for you to see things,” she said.

He fixed his bright eyes on her. After a moment, he slowly said, “Okay”

Rosalie only had simple tools-a comb and a pair of scissors. She then wrapped a piece of cloth around Jonathan’s neck.
