Chapter 640

Jonathan was still tightly holding onto Rosalie’s hand. Moreover, his grip grew tighter with every passing second. He suddenly returned to his senses when she yelped out in pain. Jonathan quickly let go of Rosalie’s hand and asked, “Does it hurt?”

“It’s fine. What were you thinking about just now?” she asked.

His gaze fell on her face as he wondered, “How should I explain it to her? I’ve been thinking about what would happen if Grandpa had told her the truth about the car accident. How would she regard me then? Would she still firmly say that she would never leave me just like how she did earlier?”

Jonathan raised his hand and touched Rosalie’s face with his slightly cold fingers. Then he pressed her face against his chest.

“You said you would always stay by my side. If you can’t do it, then I… Probably would choose to perish with you,” he muttered. His voice was hoarse, tinged with unease.

At that moment, Rosalie could only feel Jonathan’s breath on her face. Besides his voice, she could also hear the beating of his heart.

It thumped fiercely, which seemed unusual.

Rosalie did not expect Jonathan to threaten Leonard like that earlier. However, it warmed her heart as she watched him defend her and the children before Leonard.

And she had not felt that in a long time.

“There won’t be such a day because I won’t leave,” Rosalie whispered.

In an instant, Jonathan felt the unease slowly dissipate because of her words.

Perhaps she was the only one who could provide him peace of mind in this lifetime.
