Chapter 663
After saying that, Jonathan turned to Rosalie and said, “Go back to the private room. The food is getting cold.”
“Okay,” Rosalie replied. Then, seemingly remembering something, she added, “By the way, I called the police just now. There are a few people here who have slandered or defamed me earlier. The police should be here soon.”
“In that case, let Renee stay here and deal with it,” Jonathan said. Renee Hackett was the female bodyguard beside Rosalie.
Rosalie nodded, then turned around and left with Jonathan.
It was not until then that Zachary finally got up from the ground pathetically. He looked at Rosalie and Jonathan, feeling discomfited. The woman who had once been dumped by him as though he was abandoning a child was married to a much more powerful man. It felt like a slap in the face to him.
However, he couldn’t have done anything at that moment and could only endure it in frustration.
Yvette, on the other hand, was a tad stunned. Not only did that man her sister once loved deeply fail to shed a tear at her funeral, but he was even as indifferent as ever.
At that time, she couldn’t imagine that he would one day treat a woman so gently.
Worse still, that woman was Rosalie, Zachary’s ex-girlfriend. The mere thought of it had the envy within her multiply.
Jonathan led Rosalie out of the private room by hand.
Suddenly, he halted in his tracks and glanced at the slightly deformed hand in his. Then, he turned to Yvette. “Oh yes, the Hamilton family paid much attention to my wife back when she was in prison. You seemingly wanted to cripple her hands, right, Ms. Yvette Hamilton?”
In an instant, Yvette’s face turned pale, and her body began to tremble from fear.
Jonathan swept his eyes over Yvette coldly before leaving with Rosalie. Yvette almost collapsed to the ground. She knew Jonathan’s remark earlier hinted at everything she had done to Rosalie in the past.

“Is Jonathan planning to avenge Rosalie?” she wondered inwardly.
“W-What should I do, Zachary? Jonathan will take revenge on me and the Hamilton family for Rosalie!” Yvette uttered in panic.
Zachary was in a daze right then. Back then, he only broke up with Rosalie because the Xanthos family was afraid of the wrath of the Youngblood family. But now that Jonathan wanted to get back at the Hamilton family because of Rosalie, it might implicate the Xanthos family.
Some others in the private room only then knew that the man just now was Jonathan.
“Rosalie… She married Jonathan?”
“That was actually Jonathan? How unbelievable!”
“How could Jonathan marry a woman who had been in prison?”
“So, Rosalie will be able to do anything she wants Strico in the future. No one would dare mess with her!”
“Then, things wouldn’t end well for Zachary and Yvette.”
In a flash, the people in the private room who had been trying to flatter Zachary and Yvette were all eager to stay away from them.
All of them could imagine that the Xanthos family and the Hamilton family would soon be in turmoil.
“What? Rosalie married Jonathan?” In the Xanthos residence’s living room, Zendaya wore an incredulous expression.
“How could that be? Countless socialites failed to marry Jonathan! How could a woman like Rosalie be worthy of him?” she thought.
“Could you be mistaken, Zachary?” Zendaya asked.
“How could possibly be mistaken? Jonathan called himself Rosalie’s husband in front of her! Besides, his subordinates also address her as Mrs. Youngblood,” Zachary replied. Fear lingered within him at the thought of the scene in the private room.
“Fortunately, I was stopped by her bodyguard at that time. If I had really hit Rosalie then, I can’t even imagine… whether my hands would still be intact now,” he lamented soundlessly.
However, Zachary couldn’t help but feel terrified when he thought of how he had remained indifferent while watching Yvette have someone pull out Rosalie’s nails and cripple Rosalie’s hand in prison.

Since Jonathan had married Rosalie, he would likely lay waste to the Xanthos family and the Hamilton family.
Zendaya’s face contorted in resentment. “Rosalie is downright lucky, and Jonathan is simply blind! A woman like Rosalie only deserves to sweep the streets.”
“In the future, don’t say such a thing out there. Or do you find being lame in one leg insufficient for you?” Zachary snarled angrily.
Zendaya’s eyes flashed with hatred. “If it weren’t for Rosalie, I wouldn’t be lame in one leg! Initially, I planned to find an opportunity to teach Rosalie a lesson and cripple Rosalie since Jonathan had dumped her.
But now, there’s no hope for that!” she seethed deep within.
“What about the Hamilton family now?” Frank asked.
“The Hamilton family probably isn’t any better now. Back then, they hurt Rosalie many times. If Jonathan really wants to avenge her, the Hamilton family would be worse off than the Xanthos family,” Zachary said.
“How did this happen?” Olivia was completely confounded. If Jonathan really wanted to avenge Rosalie, the Hamilton family would be no different from what Rosalie was to the Xanthos family back then.
They would be a pawn the Xanthos family wanted to get rid of because any involvement would only implicate the Xanthos family.
However, it was easy for them to dump Rosalie back then, yet not so much when it came to the Hamilton family. If they were to do so, the Xanthos family would never have a place in the upper-class coterie.
Right then, the Xanthos family was caught between a rock and a hard place.
“Why don’t you go and beg Rosalie to write things off?” Olivia suggested hopefully.
Zachary smiled bitterly. “Beg her? When Rosalie begged us back then, did we agree to write things off?” At that point, Zachary didn’t think that would work when begging Rosalie.
At once, silence reigned in the living room of the Xanthos residence.
Meanwhile, the Hamilton family likewise fell into silence. After a while, Howard looked at his daughter and said, “Jonathan and Rosalie are really married?”
“Yes,” Yvette answered.

“Then, it would seem that Jonathan might strike at the Hamilton family,” Howard said solemnly.
Beside him, Sandra interjected, “What should we do, then, Honey? We can’t just sit back and do nothing.”
Howard looked at Yvette coldly. “Since you created this mess, you can resolve it yourself. Don’t get the Hamilton family involved. The Hamilton family has already done enough for you!”
“Dad!” Yvette glared at her father. “Do you really think I can resolve it alone? Didn’t you also help me inflict the hardships Rosalie suffered in prison? Jonathan truly wants to avenge Rosalie and take revenge on the Hamilton family!”
