The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 16

Rosalie’s body stiffened inadvertently. Every time she heard the names of those two people, it still made her feel like she was thrown into a nightmare.

She naturally knew about this six-carat diamond ring. She had even seen it on the news. Even if she wanted to avoid this news, she would always see them when she turned on her phone and browsed the internet.

When she was shopping with Zachary at a jewelry store back then, she had seen that uncut pink diamond. At that time, he said, “Rosalie, if you like it, I’ll buy it for our wedding rings.”

However, in the end, Zachary did not belong to her, and neither did the diamond ring

“Rosalie, Um… Are you going back?” A clear and shy male voice reached Rosalie’s car

She looked up and saw a man about 30 years old. He had short hair and was in the workwear from the transport crew. He was looking at her, blushing slightly.

She was slightly stunned before remembering that this man was from the Environment and Sanitation Administration’s transport crew. He may be the person Yulissa addressed as “Lucas.

“Yes, she replied.

“Then I’ll give you a ride. I happen to be free.” Lucas Graham spoke these words as if he finally managed to do so after mustering all his courage.

Rosalie remembered that Yulissa once said he was interested in Rosalie. She wondered if the person in front of her wanted to pursue her. Regardless, she currently did not want to be in a relationship.

“There’s no need for that,” Rosalie rejected.

“It’s all right. I have a car, so it is convenient for me to give you a ride, Lucas said hurriedly, making another attempt.

“Hmph! Why would she be impressed by your car? What she wants is a luxury car to take her around. Perhaps you should also buy a six-carat diamond ring. I’m sure Rosalie will agree to let you drive her after that,” Queenie, from the equipment department, said sourly.

Immediately, Lucas face flushed, and he was rendered speechless for a brief moment.

Rosalie glanced at Queenie nonchalantly. “So, if someone wants to drive you home one day and you refuse, it’s because you want a luxury car and a six-carat diamond ring? Or do you accept a ride from anyone?”

“You…” Queenie was stumped and could only glare at Rosalie.
