The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 37

She used to eat at the restaurant for a meal after working with her colleagues in the law firm. For her at that time, eating at the restaurant was like having a working meal.

However, it now became a meal that was like a luxury.

“That’s good. Rosie, please order the food later.” Jonathan changed the subject without a trace.

The dishes Rosalie ordered were all relatively cheap. The most expensive one was a shrimp dish that cost 9 dollars and 60 cents. The total price of all the dishes was 35 dollars.

Although the sum was not a lot, it was already the most expensive meal Rosalie had eaten in many days.

Jonathan tried to persuade Rosalie to order more. “Rosie, I have money.” However, Rosalie continued, “That’s enough. Even if you want a good meal, there is no need to order too much.”

After a while, the waiter served Rosalie and Jonathan. The food served was naturally much better than the simple meals they usually ate. While eating shrimp, Jonathan naturally shelled the shrimp for Rosalie and put it on her plate.

She looked at the shrimp in a daze.

“Why aren’t you eating it?” he asked.

She smiled lightly, “Jon, I just think that you are very good at taking care of people. Whoever dates you in the future will be blissful.” Then, she put the shrimp in her mouth.

She remembered that she had once watched a TV series where the male lead shelled shrimp for the female lead.

Although the behavior was just a small act, it made people feel that they were treasured and protected.

However, at that time, when she was dating Zachary, he never shelled the shrimp for her.

In fact, when Zachary was dating her before, she could tell his true colors through some small details. Although Zachary said that he loved her, his love was evidently not deep.
