Chapter 670
She gently scooped a spoonful of fruit soup as she joked, “It’s just like the fruit in this soup. There are sour but also sweet fruit inside. Do you want to care about what happened in my last birthday every
last birthday every time you celebrate your birthday in the future, and suffer for it every year on my birthday?”
“Sorry. I shouldn’t have broken up with you at that time.” Jonathan spoke in a low voice.
“So let’s take it as a warning and never mention breaking up in the future, okay?” She smiled faintly.
Momentarily stunned, he stared at her with his dark eyes. After a long time, he finally said in a hoarse voice, “It’s a deal then. Let’s not mention breaking up in the future.”
“All right. If you can’t think of a birthday gift, I will prepare one myself. Don’t you dare dislike them when the time comes?” Rosalie lowered her head and began to enjoy the fruit soup in front of her.
Jonathan looked at Rosalie. A hint of agony flashed across his eyes.
He wondered, “Can we really make a deal so that we will never mention breaking up in the future? Does she have any idea what I fear most is that she will choose to leave me one day? Does she know how I wish she can abide her words no matter what happens in the future?”
Rosalie was a little troubled by Jonathan’s birthday gift. After all, he already had everything, and she had gotten him things like a scarf and gloves as gifts before. It was hard for her to think of getting him something meaningful for a moment.
After visiting Lillian in the hospital, Rosalie asked the driver to drive her to the mall to see if there was anything she could pick as a gift.
The news she received from the hospital that day was quite good. The doctor told her that Lillian had a good postoperative response and all of her physical indicators were improving, so she would wake up soon.
That made Rosalie feel considerably better.
Rosalie began to shop around after she arrived at the mall. Renee, the bodyguard, naturally followed behind her.
Since Rosalie was getting a gift for Jonathan, she went to some male
stores.

Just when she arrived at one of the luxury brand stores, a familiar voice suddenly came into her ears.
“Mr. Gunner, please let Fiona go. Fiona likes you. That’s why she took up a false identity. She didn’t mean any harm. If she were sentenced, she would have to spend her whole life in prison! She’s only 29 years old and still young. How can she be imprisoned for so long?”
Rosalie shifted her gaze over and saw Sarah crying in front of Calvin not far away. Apparently, she was begging Calvin to let Fiona go. Calvin’s expression was cold, and he did not mean to talk to her at all. Seeing that, Sarah pretended to fall to her knees.
Calvin said coldly, “Even if you kneel and beg for mercy here, I won’t withdraw the lawsuit. Just let the judge decide the sentence. Even if she were sentenced to life imprisonment, she deserves it! Since she dared to do such a thing, she should have prepared to bear the consequences.” “But Fiona didn’t expect the consequences to be so serious. She was ignorant and thought pretending to be her cousin was not a big deal anyway,” Sarah quickly explained.
“Not a big deal?” Calvin’s expression, which was as cold as ice earlier, changed immediately. He could not believe a serious thing that could affect his life was actually not a big deal for people like Sarah and Fiona.
“Say it again!” Calvin said coldly. His delicate and indifferent face was full of hostility at that moment.
Sarah was startled. She only felt that Calvin suddenly seemed to become a different person. It was as if he would draw his sharp sword out of the sheath, strike her, and end her at any time.
“I-I’m just saying that it was not a big deal. I believe the money Fiona took from you was only an insignificant amount for you.”
“Haha!” Calvin suddenly burst into laughter and was about to punch Sarah with his fist. Alan, who was on the side, hurriedly grabbed Calvin’s hand upon seeing that.
“Calvin, come on. Why do you care about what such a person says?” Alan said.
“She said it wasn’t a big deal! Don’t you think it’s too amusing? Ruining my life was not a big deal… “Calvin laughed, but his voice was choked with sobs.
“That’s enough. Don’t overthink,” Alan comforted him.

Suddenly, Calvin’s voice faltered abruptly, and he looked at one side blankly.
Alan was confused by the sight and followed his gaze. His heart skipped a beat when he saw Rosalie standing not far away.
He originally wanted Calvin to forget Rosalie as soon as possible, so he dragged Calvin to the mall to shop and relax. Alas, it turned out that they were not only blocked by Fiona’s mother but also happened to run into Rosalie.
At that moment, Alan blamed himself for jinxing it and regretted that he had chosen that mall that day.
Calvin looked at the figure not far away, afraid that what he saw was only an illusion.
He regretted every single day for the past few days, blaming himself for being jealous of Rosalie and Lucas back then. He could not fathom why he refused to believe Rosalie’s words and preferred to trust Fiona rather than Lucas.
A series of questions kept precipitating in his heart, leaving more and more regrets behind.
Calvin staggered toward Rosalie with his eyes widened as if he wanted to see everything about her more clearly.
He wondered if she was real or merely his illusion.
Just as he was only a few steps away from her, a figure suddenly rushed toward Rosalie’s front. “Rosalie, please help me beg for Calvin’s mercy. Fiona is your cousin. You can’t possibly watch her spend the rest of her life in prison, can you?”
When Sarah wanted to get close to Rosalie, Renee immediately blocked her, stopping Sarah from approaching Rosalie again.
Rosalie looked at Sarah in front of her. In fact, among her maternal relatives, no one else was kind to her except for Wilma, her grandmother, who treated her sincerely. Those relatives could even sacrifice her for the benefit of others.
Since Wiman passed away, she no longer had any connection with those maternal relatives.
“I won’t help you, Aunt Sarah. Fiona tried to hurt me more than once. If it were me who hurt her, I’m afraid that you would have directly torn me into pieces,” Rosalie said.
