Chapter 205
She could not help thinking, “Now he… likes me? But how long can this love last?”
Just like when Tracy married Gordon, the former must have thought he loved her very much. However, in Gordon’s heart, there was no feeling for Tracy anymore.
The once unforgettable love was merely a joke as the years passed.
Even when Rosalie was in love with Zachary, they were intimate. She thought she had found a man worthy of her trust for life, but he had easily cut ties with her.
Jonathan suddenly asked, “Do you think I’m merely playing with you?”
Rosalie was stunned and did not know how to answer for a moment.
She also felt that way. Even though Jonathan was not toying with her, Rosalie was still uncertain about how long his so-called love would last.
Maybe it would last for two years or only a few months.
“Then tell me, what should I do so you’ll believe I’m not playing with you?” He stared at Rosalie. The next thing Jonathan said made Rosalie almost jump from the couch. “How about we get married? With that, will believe I’m serious about
you
this?”
Rosalie felt like her heart was missing a beat. “Get married?” Then, she pondered, “Is he kidding? How can he say that so easily?”
Jonathan responded with certainty, “Yes, we’ll get married. I don’t plan to have another woman by my side in my life. In with other words, I’ll only have a woman like you by my side for the rest of my life. In this case, is there anything wrong marrying you?”
“But…”
“Or have you never thought about marrying me, Rosie?” Jonathan’s fingertips gently brushed her cheek.
Feeling embarrassed, Rosalie noticed her heartbeat seemed to increase rapidly. She even felt her cheek, which was being touched by his fingertips, become hot.
Rosalie did not even think about getting married to Jonathan. Their relationship was established so suddenly. She had never thought that one day, she would really become his girlfriend.
Her expression immediately made Jonathan know that Rosalie really had not thought about it. Jonathan was a little nonplussed.
If other women spent time with him like that, it would make their imaginations run wild because many women wanted to get close to Jonathan and marry into the Youngblood family.
However, Rosalie had not thought about that at all.
Staring at her with his bright eyes, Jonathan asked, “Aren’t you going out with me on the premise of getting married? Or are you going to toy with my feelings and dump me, Rosie?”
Rosalie almost choked on her own saliva. She mused, “Toy with his feelings? That doesn’t seem to fit him, let alone dumping him.”
“Or are you already thinking about breaking up with me while dating me?” He pursued the matter further.
Stunned, Rosalie wanted to say something, but Jonathan’s lips had already fallen on hers before she could say anything.
He kissed her so hard that he parted her lips and swallowed everything she wanted to say.
“Um…” Rosalie subconsciously wanted to move away to dodge the kiss.
However, his fingers clasped her chin and kept her from moving.
The kiss was so passionate that it almost suffocated her. When the kiss ended, Rosalie felt that her entire body was weak. Half of her body was leaning on Jonathan’s arms.
With persistence in his bright eyes, Jonathan murmured, “You’d better not even think about breaking up with me. Since you’ve promised to date me, from now on, I will be the only one you can date! And I, too, will only have you.”
His voice was enchanting, like a net trapping Rosalie tightly.
When Rosalie finally finished lunch in Jonathan’s CEO’s Office, she checked the time and hurriedly packed up before leaving.
When she came out, she met Carlos. The latter politely and respectfully greeted, “Ms. Leighton, are you leaving?”
“Yes,” answered Rosalie.

“Stay safe,” said Carlos.
When Rosalie got into the elevator, a middle-tier manager of the company beside Carlos could not help asking. “Mr. Gibson, that woman… who is it?”
After all, Rosalie was wearing cheap clothes and did not look like an employee of the company.
However, Jonathan’s personal assistant treated her with that attitude.
There were few people in the company who could be treated respectfully by Carlos.
Carlos said meaningfully, “She… is someone you can’t mess with.”
It was because Rosalie was the one Jonathan cared about. Once someone messed with Rosalie, that person would be irreversibly doomed.
Rosalie went back to the diner and continued delivering takeout.
Whenever Jonathan ordered a lot of takeout and then asked her to deliver it to Youngblood Group and have lunch together, Rosalie felt guilty as if she was doing something personal during working hours.
However, it was not convenient for her to refuse Jonathan’s order. After all, the takeout he ordered every day was also a good source of income for the diner.
“Where is Ms. Haab? Hasn’t she come back yet?” After Rosalie delivered several more orders, she found that Amelia was not in the diner. It was Matilda who was working at the checkout counter.
“Aiden caught a cold. Amelia took him to the community hospital to get some medicine,” answered Matilda.
In the afternoon, Amelia returned to the diner with Aiden on her back. He had fallen asleep lying on his mother’s back. Rosalie quickly carried him and asked, “Is Aiden all right?”
“It’s just an ordinary cold. It’s not a big problem.” Amelia smiled.
Rosalie looked at the fatigue on Amelia’s face and could not help saying, “You seem to be very tired. Do you want to get some rest? Anyway, there are no customers.”
Amelia shook her head. “I’m fine. I’m worried about Aiden. I fear he doesn’t know how to express his discomfort when he’s sick. After all, sign language can’t express as much as language, and he’s still young and doesn’t know many signs. I just hope he doesn’t get sick before getting the cochlear implant.”
Rosalie looked at Aiden, who was asleep. “Can he get a cochlear implant in two months?”
Speaking of that, Amelia finally had a smile on her face. “Yes. Although it’s cheaper, he can finally hear sounds and learn to speak after putting it on. If I become rich in the future, I’ll get him a better one. This is my life now. But I hope he can have a better life.”
