Chapter 308: Will You Consider Remarrying?

Jonathan did not stop her and merely said, “Samantha’s younger brother.”

Rochelle froze. Her long eyelashes trembled and she opened her eyes abruptly. “Spit it out!”

“Corey is still alive. Samantha transferred him to a foreign hospital before she left. He’s now being taken care of by Little St. John, also known as Dr. Sherwood,” Jonathan said calmly. “Corey’s still comatose. He needs someone to take care of him long-term now that Samantha’s gone. He’s the only person she truly cares about. If you’re dead, Corey will become an orphan and he definitely won’t be able to survive.”

Rochelle knew exactly what Jonathan meant by those words.

He knew all too well how to stimulate her desire to survive.

She had always been a pitiful little bug that he held in his hands.

Rochelle closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths.

She then put down the gun, took out her mobile phone, and called Alan.

Before Samantha went abroad, she had given Alan’s number to Rochelle too.

The dial tone rang in her ear and it took some time before the call was picked up. A man’s gentle and elegant voice greeted, “Hello.”

“Hello, Dr. Sherwood, I’m Rochelle Tyrell, a good friend of...Sammy.”

Rochelle could not help herself from sounding choked when she mentioned the name ‘Sammy’.

Alan was also silent for a moment before replying, “Hello, Ms. Tyrell. Sammy mentioned you before. What’s the matter?”

Rochelle gulped heavily and suppressed the sourness in her throat before asking, “Is Corey…with you?”

Samantha did not mention Corey’s transfer to her, or more likely forgot to mention it due to the mental and physical exhaustion at the time.

“Yes. He’s with me,” Alan replied.

“Then is he... Is he okay?”

“He’s in a rather stable state, but he hasn’t regained consciousness yet. Don’t worry, I’ll always take good care of him. I promised Sammy, after all.”

Rochelle said hoarsely, “Thank you. I’m very sorry to trouble you.”

After a pause, she added, “I’ll…be Corey’s guardian in the future. Please tell me if you need money or anything at all, Dr. Sherwood.”

Alan could not help but chuckle in appreciation. “Sammy is lucky to have a good friend like you.”

Rochelle could not bring herself to say anything else.

‘You’re wrong. Sammy isn’t lucky to have me as her good friend. I’m an unfortunate person. That’s why the people around me disappear one by one. I can’t keep any of them around.’

The sole exception was Jonathan.

His life was a bit too resilient though.

Alan seemed to sense Rochelle’s sadness and lowered his voice to say, “My condolences.”

Rochelle sniffled. “Thank you.”

“I won’t be visiting Corey because I don’t want my misfortune to rub off on him. I’ll leave everything to you.”

“Okay. Please keep in touch.”

After hanging up, Rochelle raised her head and forced herself to blink several times before suppressing her desire to cry.

Jonathan merely stared silently at her until Rochelle turned around to stare at him.

The both of them looked at each other.

Rochelle spoke first in a soft yet hoarse voice. “Jonathan Yates.”

Over the past few years, she rarely if ever called him by his name. Most of the time, she either called him an idiot or did not even bother to address him in any way at all.

The only reason she ever called him was to tell him to die or go to hell.

His heart moved slightly when she called his name all of a sudden.

“Yes. Tell me.” He could not control his voice from turning hoarse.

Rochelle looked at him intently as her lips parted open for her to say, “I want money and power.”

After calming down and thinking about it, she concluded that she had been reckless indeed.

Jonathan was right: the possibility that she could kill Timothy was zero.

Since she could only continue to live, she would not give up seeking justice for Samantha. Even though she could not kill Timothy yet, she was never going to let him live comfortably with Harmony.

The two lives—that of Samantha and the baby—could not perish in vain.

Jonathan knew what she was thinking and was particularly fond of her tenacity.

He curled his lips and replied, “Alright. I’ll give you whatever you want.”

He raised his hand and tested the waters as he touched Rochelle’s face with his fingertips.

Rochelle clenched her hand fiercely.

She did not dodge him anymore and allowed him to touch her.

After returning to the apartment, Rochelle took out her luggage bag and packed her things.

From that day onward, she was going to move in with Jonathan and start living their...married life again.

All of a sudden, she spotted the photo frame placed on the table. It was a Polaroid photo taken with a pregnant Samantha.

At that time, they laughed and said that it was their first family photo.

Rochelle’s tears slid down one after another as she looked at the photo. She then placed the photo on her heart and cried in agony.

Half a month later, the Barker Group announced in a high-profile manner that they would allocate certain funds to form a charitable foundation.

The name of that foundation was the Barker Foundation.

Harmony was the president and the foundation’s highest answerable person.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see who that foundation was for.

Back then, Harmony revealed during a live news broadcast that she was a mistress who destroyed other people’s families. The mystery as to whose relationship she destroyed was finally solved.

Harmony had meddled with Timothy’s marriage to Samantha.

It was undoubtedly obvious that Timothy was doing that so Harmony could clear her name under the pretext of charity. That would then pave the way for her future marriage to him.

In the end, Samantha was defeated and her marriage ended in divorce. History had repeated itself and she was an abandoned wife once more.

Even more pitiful was the fact that Samantha had been sent abroad to be a foreign correspondent, but she then disappeared there and was likely killed.

Harmony became the final winner.

The matter caused an uproar on the internet and heated discussions went on for a considerable amount of time.

When the buzz finally subsided, another shocking piece of news appeared.

Rochelle started going out on dates with Jonathan on certain occasions. Jonathan brought Rochelle with him wherever he went, thereby dispelling the rumor that they had secretly divorced due to their extreme incompatibility.

Jonathan later invested in the Barker Foundation, and due to his wealth, Rochelle had also joined the foundation and became vice-president.

Everyone used to be answerable to Harmony, but that person soon became Rochelle because she was the genuine Mrs. Yates. Harmony, on the other hand, had not officially gotten married to Timothy yet. Some people turned to Rochelle and treated her as the head.

From then onward, the conflict between the two had intensified from little things to more serious ones.

Three years later, the strategic cooperation between the Barker Group and EIA Group had achieved great success, further expanding the Barker Group’s territory to historic highs.

Domestic and foreign media scrambled to do a news report on it and Timothy, as the business tycoon, was the subject of everyone’s excitement.

At the global summit, Timothy ended his remarks and a reporter immediately took the opportunity to ask questions regarding his personal life.

After all, as a sought-after bachelor, his personal life was an attractive issue to focus on.

“Mr. Barker, you’ve been single ever since your divorce three years ago.. Everyone is very curious about your love life. Have you ever considered remarrying?”
