Chapter 81
“As long as Mr. Youngblood agrees, you can be discharged at any time, Ms. Leighton,” said the doctor.
Rosalie suddenly had an indescribable feeling. She thought, “So I need Jonathan’s permission even for my hospital discharge?”
“Okay, I understand.”
After the doctor and nurse left, Rosalie walked into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. She had a delicate face, curved eyebrows, and a pair of pretty eyes. Her rosy lips were glowing faintly under the light.
Among ordinary people. her beauty would stand out. However, there were always beautiful women around Jonathan. Compared to those people, she was no match.
Smiling bitterly, Rosalie thought, “What exactly does Jonathan like about me? Is it because I initially mistook him as a homeless man, so he found it amusing and wanted to continue playing this game?”
She raised her hand and gently stroked her lips. The scene of him kissing her flashed across her mind.
Just then, she remembered what Lillan had once said. “Rosie, do you know your lips are beautiful?”
“My lips are beautiful?” Rosalie had never paid much attention to her lips. All she knew was that they weren’t ugly, but she didn’t find anything special about them.
“Yeah, they’re very beautiful. Your lip shape gives people the urge to kiss you… It’s the kind of lips that men want to kiss
most.”
At that time, Rosalie had only found the description funny.
Now, at the thought that Jonathan had kissed her, she felt her lips burning.
She told herself inwardly, “Stop thinking. Stop
Rosalie kept saying to herself in her heart, “Since Jonathan said that he would let me make my choice, he probably means it. A manlike him is unlikely to go back on his words. I’ll just think that everything that happened was a dream. In the dream. I met a man named Jon. We cherished each other and lived happily. And now that I have woken up, I’m alone.”
Walking out of the bathroom, Rosalie removed her hospital gown and changed into the clothes she had worn the day she
caine.
Besides that, she only had a bag, a phone, and nothing else.
Rosalie sat quietly on the couch in the ward, waiting for Jonathan.
In the Youngblood Residence, Carlos walked to Jonathan’s side. Mr. Youngblood, Ms. Leighton is waiting for you in the hospital ward. She said she wants to be discharged”
Carlos spoke cautiously. Since Jonathan left the hospital the day before, he had stayed in the house and didn’t go to the hospital.
It was abnormal.
After all, Jonathan practically lived in the hospital for the past few days.
Jonathan pursed his thin lips. After a while, he said, “Did she say anything else aside from wanting to leave the hospital?”
“No.” Right upon saying that, Carlos noticed Jonathan’s face darkening.
Carlos didn’t dare to say anything more and just waited aside.
Lowering his head, Jonathan toyed with a scarf in his hand. Carlos had a feeling Rosalie had made it and gifted it to Jonathan
Jonathan played with the scarf casually with his eyes downcast, seemingly thinking about something. After a long time, he finally stood up and said, ‘Let’s go to the hospital.”
“Got it,” Carlos responded swiftly and left the Youngblood Residence with Jonathan.
When Jonathan walked into the hospital ward, he saw Rosalie sitting on the couch obediently.
“Obedient” was the first word that crossed Jonathan’s mind. She sat upright with her hands on her knees.
“Do you want to leave the hospital?” Jonathan asked.
“Yes,” Rosalie answered, her gaze falling on the scarf on his neck. It was the scarf she had made. Back then, she was afraid that he would get cold and hoped that it would keep him warm in winter.
However, it turned out that she didn’t have to do that. He had tons of scarves and ways to keep himself warm. He didn’t need her scarf at all.
“I can give you another chance to change the choice you made yesterday. Think it through before answering me. Are really not going to stay with me?” Jonathan asked.
He would never give anyone a second choice. However, Rosalie seemed to be an exception.
Rosalie looked up at Jonathan. The look in his eyes was intimidating, and the air in the room became tense.
At that moment, Rosalie suddenly had a sense of crisis. It felt as if a wrong answer could lead her to her doom
Rosalie pondered, “Should I refuse or agree?”
If Rosalie stayed with Jonathan, her fare might change.
you
However, Rosalie wondered what kind of fate would befall her once Jon was tired of playing the game. She might become more miserable.
Besides, he was Jonathan Youngblood, the man who was her nightmare. When she was in prison, there was a time when she would tremble in fear at the mention of his name.
Rosalie only got a bit better after getting out of prison, but if she stayed by his side, the fear might haunt her, and she would never be able to escape again.
Gulping, Rosalie replied, “Well, I… I want to be alone. I don’t want to be with anyone.”
In an instant. Jonathan’s face clouded over. The cold gleam in his eyes was deadly.
“You’re not going to regret it? Jonathan’s voice sounded dangerous.
Rosalie couldn’t help trembling again. “Yes, 1 won’t.”
As soon as she finished speaking, he pulled her over and threw her on the bed.
Screaming, Rosalie instinctively struggled to get up.
The next moment, Jonathan pinned his body against hers and firmly clasped her wrists, reminding her of the previous time when he also trapped her on the hospital bed like this.
Jonathan, what… what are you doing?” Rosalie shouted.
“I regret it. I shouldn’t have given you any choice,” he said in a low voice. His lips touched her cheeks as he kissed her face.
He was very gentle as if kissing a rare treasure, but his grip around her wrists was so tight that she couldn’t move at all.
“No!” Rosalie shook her head vigorously, trying to avoid his lips.
Yet his kisses followed her like a shadow. She could not dodge them at all.
“Have you forgotten? If I want it, you don’t even have the right to say no,” Jonathan murmured coldly. His hoarse and affectionate voice sounded pleasant to the ears.
