The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 231

Jonathan’s footsteps suddenly came to a halt. His dark gaze was fixed on her.

Rosalie looked confused. “What’s the matter?”

“What if I will?” came his sudden words.

She froze momentarily, and the smile on her face slowly abated. She pursed her lips stiffly and looked at him solemnly, “Jon, I don’t like being fooled. I always think that to get along with one another for a long time, we have to be sincere. Not lying is

basic.”

The man remained silent. All he did was stare at her.

“Will you lie to me?” she asked. At that moment, she felt an abject uneasiness within. She was afraid that Jonathan would utter the word “Yes” to her. She worried that the two of them might have different values.

Jonathan folded his hands slightly and parted his thin tips. Then came a steady utterance. “No.”

Hearing that, Rosalie felt relieved as if a boulder had been lifted off her chest.

Fortunately, Jonathan would tell her no lie.

“Why? Are you scared that my answer didn’t turn out to be the one you wanted?” It seemed that he could read her expression.

“A little.” Ashamed, Rosalie touched her nose and added, “Anyway, I won’t be lying to you about anything in the future. You, too, don’t bluff me.”

“Okay,” Jonathan responded to the lady in a low voice. “But what would you do if I answered ‘Yes’ just now?”

He could not help but want to know the answer, even if it might actually terrify him moré.
