The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 50

In the rental home, Jonathan cautiously sat Rosalie down on a chair, warming up the chilled food with utmost care.

As Jonathan bustled about, his attentive demeanor began to reshape Lillian’s perception of him. She used to be unsure about living with a stranger, but it was clear he treated Rosalie with kindness.

Seeing his devotion to Rosalie eased Lillian’s concerns, as she felt her friend was in good hands.

After Lillian left, Jonathan and Rosalie enjoyed a simple dinner. Once they were done, Rosalie made a move to clean up, but Jonathan stopped her kindly. “Let me take care of that, Rosie. Just stay put.”

Rosalie, who used to be busy, became extremely unoccupied.

Once Jonathan had finished cleaning up, he asked Rosalie, “Rosie, do you need to use the bathroom?”

“What?” Rosalie was taken aback for a moment, and then her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

“Yes, or no?” Jonathan continued as if it was just a regular question.

Feeling embarrassed, she finally whispered, “Yes.”

After helping her to the bathroom, he stepped back and instructed, “Just let me know when you’re done.”

“Sure…” Her cheeks blushed even more, taken aback that he had noticed she hadn’t been to the bathroom.

When Rosalie emerged from the bathroom, Jonathan helped her back to the chair again.

She couldn’t resist saying, “I can actually walk on my own. It’s just a foot fracture. My other foot is perfectly fine.”

“As the doctor recommended, you should try to walk less. Or is it that you don’t want me to look after you?”

“No… It’s not like that,” she mumbled, her face growing even redder as she shook her head.

He smiled and tenderly brushed her flushed cheek. “Even though I don’t like seeing you hurt, I kinda enjoy seeing you rely on me.”
