The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 576

When they got to the car, Calvin put her in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt. Then he went back to the

driver’s seat and started the car.

The car drove toward Rosalie’s rented home. On the way, Calvin also stopped to buy an ointment for a bruise.

“In fact, there’s no need for any ointment. It’s just a couple of scratches, and they will disappear in two days. It’s a

trivial matter,” Rosalie said.

“Nothing about you is trivial to me,” he said. As if afraid she wouldn’t apply the ointment, he parked his car on the

side of the road and then held her scratched arm to help her apply the ointment.

“I… I’ll do it myself!” She quickly took the ointment from his hand, opened the lid, dipped her fingers in some of the

ointment, and then applied it to the bruises.

The cool ointment slowly soaked into the skin.

There were actually very few bruises, and Rosalie finished applying the ointment in no time. Just as she closed the

lid, Calvin spoke, “If the one who hurt you is Fiona, I will also seek justice for you.”

Rosalie looked at Calvin in surprise. “You…”

Calvin continued, “Fiona was my savior when I was a child. She is indeed very important to me, and I hope this

matter has nothing to do with her. But that doesn’t mean I don’t know right from wrong. Besides, you’re the person

I want to cherish the most. No matter what happens, I don’t want you to be wronged.”

Suddenly, Rosalie’s heart was moved. His voice was plain and indifferent, but it made her feel as if she would feel

comfortable and warm when she heard what he said.

When the car started again, Rosalie stared at the ointment in her hand, lost in thought.

In the meantime, Fiona was terrified. Joseph was taken to the hospital for treatment, while Calvin accompanied

Rosalie to the police station to give a statement.

Compared to the embarrassment of her past photos being exposed, Fiona was more afraid of people discovering

her plot against Rosalie.

“It should be okay!” she thought.

The incident with Joseph being drugged shouldn’t be traced back to her. At that time, she had bribed a cleaner to

help her lock the door of the lounge and unlock it quietly. As long as the cleaner didn’t say anything, that matter

wouldn’t fall on her.

Moreover, everyone saw her photos in that incident. She was also a victim.

But even so, Fiona came to Calvin’s residence and waited for him at night. When he came back and walked into the

living room, she immediately stood up and said with a worried look, “Calvin, how is Rosalie? Is she okay?”

Calvin’s gaze fell lightly on Fiona as he asked directly, “Does today’s incident have anything to do with you?”

Fiona was stunned, feeling as if all her thoughts were exposed under his sharp eyes.

“L.. I know it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have made Rosalie wait for me in the lounge, but I really don’t know why Joseph

acted the way he did!” Fiona looked sad and reproachful.

“Today… Joseph said he would come to me and give me something, so I asked him to wait for me in the lounge.

Later, Rosalie came to see me, so I also asked her to wait for me in the lounge. I thought they knew each other

anyway, so it wouldn’t be too awkward for them to meet in the lounge, but…”

Fiona sobbed as she spoke. “Is it true that Joseph was really drugged? Is someone trying to frame me? If… if Rosalie

hadn’t come to find me today, I would have been the one to enter the lounge, and I might have been in danger.

Rosalie… replaced me in such a situation. Fortunately, she wasn’t hurt by Joseph… Otherwise, I would really regret

it!”

As she delivered her well-prepared statement, Fiona portrayed herself as a victim.

By presenting herself as the victim, the incident involving Rosalie would have nothing to do with her and would be

considered only Rosalie’s own misfortune.

“What you just told me is true?” Calvin stared at the person in front of hi

questions

“Of course,” Fiona hurriedly replied. “Why would I have any reason to lie to you, Calvin? Do you know? The more I

think about it, the more scared I become. If it was me who entered the lounge at that time, and if I wasn’t as smart

as Rosalie, I would definitely… become the scandal of the entire Strico, and everyone would laugh at me!”

As she said that, she wanted to jump into his arms and seek comfort.

But Calvin pushed Fiona right out of his arms. “Fiona, I’ve said it before. I see you only as my childhood savior. So

please refrain from inappropriate actions and avoid saying things that might mislead others.”

When Fiona heard that, her expression immediately changed, and she bit her lower lip tightly.

“I also hope that everything you said today is true. The police have already begun their investigation. It won’t be

long before we get some results,” Calvin added.

Fiona smiled reluctantly. “Yeah, I hope… we can get a result soon. Then I’ll know who’s trying to harm me!”

However, her heart was pounding uncontrollably as if it was about to jump out of her throat. A sense of fear surged

from the depths of her heart.

She thought, “If… it’s really found out, what should I do?”

Just the thought of reaching that moment made Fiona’s body tremble uncontrollably.

On the weekend, Lillian had a special appointment with Rosalie.

Lillian drove Rosalie to a famous church in Strico.

“Why are we here?” Rosalie was a little curious. After all, Lillian wasn’t the type who usually sought out spiritual or

religious activities.

“I heard this place is quite good, so I brought you here to ward off bad luck. By the way, do you have any wishes?

You can make wishes here, and maybe they will come true!” Lillian said.

Rosalie couldn’t help but chuckle. “You came here with me today. Don’t you have to accompany Callum?”

“He went back to the White family to deal with something. He hasn’t been in Strico recently,” Lillian said. Her face

suddenly blushed as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

“What’s wrong?” Rosalie asked.

“Well… Rosalie, if I tell you that I will marry Callum in three months and want you to be my bridesmaid, would you…

well… be willing?” When Lillian said that, she looked somewhat conflicted.

In the next three months, it would be a significant event in her life. She hoped that Rosalie could be her bridesmaid.

That was the agreement they had made when they were in high school. Whoever got married first, the other would

be the bridesmaid.
