The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 505

“Then just pretend I’m not caring about you,” Rosalie said. She liad to use all her strength to lift Jonathan from the

tiled floor in the bathroom. She then half-dragged him to the bedside and let him lie down.

Obviously, he was very uncomfortable at that moment. When he was on the bed, his body curled into the fetal

position. His handsome face was slightly twisted due to pain, and his teeth chattered uncontrollably. His hands were

pressing on his stomach all the time.

Rosalie suddenly remembered that she once, saw him having a gastric spasm. ‘Is he having a stomachache again

today?

It’s not impossible if I think about it. After all, he seemed to drink a lot today, especially when he and Calvin began

drinking… It looked like he drank on an empty stomach. I didn’t see them eat anything at that time. She recalled

the scene.

“Do you have a stomachache?” she asked.

He pursed his thin lips without answering. However, he kept staring at her with his bright, captivating eyes.

“Do you want me to call Carlos and ask him to send you to the hospital?” she continued asking.

“No.” He said with difficulty, “You… Don’t you love me anymore? Aren’t you abandoning and despising me? Shan’t

you be happy… when I’m in such pain now?”

“Happy?” Rosalie asked herself inwardly while looking at the man before her. At that moment, he looked pale and

delicate. His handsome face showed an exquisite fragility.

But she didn’t feel any sort of glee when she saw him like that.

“Jonathan, I’m not you. Even if I don’t love someone and don’t want to be involved with him, or even if I hate

someone, seeing him in pain doesn’t please me!” she stated. “If you don’t want me to call Carlos, I’ll go to a nearby

pharmacy to buy some medicine for you! Stay here and wait for me.”

Upon announcing that, she took her keys and phone and hurried out of the rental home.

Once more, he was alone in the small rental home.

Jonathan closed his eyes again.

He wondered why he couldn’t feel any happiness when she said that. She went to buy him medicine simply because

she had some sympathy for him in her heart.

‘My stomach is getting more and more painful!

Now it feels far worse than any previous pain. It’s worse when the pain is coupled with the discomfort of drinking

too much. My entire body feels empty.

Who in the world would want me sincerely?’ In pain, Jonathan let his mind wander.

‘My mother doesn’t want me because I’m just a tool to bring her glory and wealth, and she could use me to raise

her status. But once the puppet became useless, she readily abandoned me.

My father doesn’t want me, too. Even if he had some love for me in his heart, this paternal love for his son was too

negligible compared to his love for my mother. Therefore, when Mother abandoned him completely, Father was

disheartened and left this world, forgetting that he still had a child.

Grandpa’s the one who truly doesn’t want me. For him, I’m just an illegitimate ‘rascal’ carrying half of the

Youngblood family’s bloodline in my body. Grandpa has never admitted my mother’s identity and legitimacy.

In Grandpa’s eyes, I’m just a tool to continue the bloodline of the Youngblood family. But since I’m somewhat useful

as a tool, I can inherit the property and business of the Youngblood family.

And now… Rosie… Rosie also wants to abandon me!

Even if I trap her by my side as my sister, she doesn’t want me anymore!’ His thoughts came to a sobering

conclusion. “She doesn’t love me anymore, so she doesn’t want me, too?” He murmured in a low voice. The pain in

his body was getting stronger and stronger. It seemed like his stomach was not the only organ hurting. His heart

and bones were aching, too. Every breath he took was painful.

“Rosie… Rosie…” he called inwardly.

He wondered why he could only think about her name, voice, face, and smile now, even when she was about to

abandon

him.

He also wondered why he fell into such despair when he realized she didn’t love him and was about to leave him.

He was so desperate. He felt that he was drowning and losing his last hope of salvation.

“It hurts… It hurts so much that I can hardly breathel” Jonathan screamed inwardly.

The sound of the door opening reached him. Next, he heard footsteps and the sounds of someone picking up and

placing

“Is she back? She went to buy medicine for me at midnight, just like the last time at the rental home,” Jonathan

pondered.

Back at that time, when he opened his eyes and looked at her, he felt his heart throb for the first time.

Perhaps he had fallen in love with her since that moment.

“Come, take the medicine. You’ll feel better after taking it.” Rosalie’s voice sounded in his ear, and a hand helped

him up.

Her scent filled his nostrils, and Jonathan slowly opened his eyes. Her delicate and tranquil face came into his sight.

At that moment, he suddenly felt something was filling the emptiness in his soul, a little by a little.

Every nerve and every drop of blood in his body screamed for her. He wanted her to stay with him like that.

Rosalie handed the medicine to Jonathan and instructed, “There’re two kinds of medicine. You’ve to take one pill of

this and two pills of that. Take the medicine first.”

However, he didn’t take the pills from her hand. His eyes were staring at her greedily.

His stare gave her an indescribably heavy feeling. “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to take the medication?” After

all, she recalled that he once said he didn’t enjoy taking medicine.

“Even if you remain as my sister and I’ll be the little brother you want for the rest of your life, will you still abandon

me?” he suddenly asked.

Rosalie froze for a moment. She lowered her gaze and looked at the medicine in her hand. With a soft

acknowledgment, she whispered, “Brother and sister? It’s only a make-believe game for you. Moreover…” She

smiled softly, but her smile seemed to be vague. “You’ll never be the little brother I want.”

As she said that, she raised her eyes to meet his gaze. “Jonathan, I’ve loved you and hated you. Now, I neither want

to love you nor want you. A man like you is not someone I can desire at all! And when you’re completely tired of

playing this make-believe family game, everything between us will be over for real.”

His face became paler. Even his lips displayed a ghostly gray color.

“Over? Between us… Over for real? If everything between us is over for real, then I…” He became stiff when the

thought flashed across his mind.

“As for this medicine, it’s your choice if you want to have it or not,” Rosalie said as she put the medicine and the

glass of water on the nightstand. Next, she turned and pulled a chair for herself, equipping it with a pillow and

blanket. She then found a comfortable position and leaned against the chair for a nap.

Dazed, Jonathan stared at the napping woman in the chair, After a while, he finally reached for the medicine on the

nightstand and washed the pills down his throat with the glass of water.
