The Unbreakable Bond By Cornelia Darwin

Chapter 1 35

“I’m specialized in costume designing. I am the best model myself. If the clothes I design aren’t fancy,

how am I gonna be a designer?” snorted Rosalind.

Men all thought that women wore fancy outfits to attract men, but women knew that they wore fancy

outfits to please themselves.

Women wanted to please and satisfy themselves, and men’s opinions were not worth mentioning

Perhaps in the past, if Leonardo said that Rosalind’s dress was too short or unsightly, Rosalind would

obediently change it for something he liked, but now Rosalind had no such idea at all.

She just wanted to wear whatever she liked. She wanted to be happy and she didn’t give a sh it what

anyone else thought.

Seeing that Leonardo was about to state something, Rosalind interrupted, “Mr. Brooks, you can leave if

you think I’m dressed inappropriately. I didn’t ask you to be with us.”

They had nothing to do with each other now. Leonardo was in no position to mansplain Rosalind on her

outfit.

“I didn’t mean that… Leonardo raised his voice.

Leonardo frowned. He hated it when Rosalind called him that because it made him feel like they were

becoming distant again.

“If not, then let’s go!” blurted out Rosalind.

Rosalind didn’t say anything else. She took Yanna and Kevin and walked straight over.

Damian was free today, so he arrived downstairs early and waited. When he saw Rosalind and her kids

coming down with Leonardo beside them. Damian didn’t even say hello to Leonardo and got into the

car with the two kids in his arms.

Rosalind also got into the car. In the rearview mirror, they could see Leonardo standing alone beside

the car, looking in the direction where they left without moving for a long time.

Damian said. “Rosa, you can’t go soft on him. Leonardo is very scheming. You can’t be fooled by him

again…”

Watching Rosalind stare into the rearview mirror, Damian was a little worried.

Rosalind murmured, “Don’t worry, I know it.”

Rosalind looked away and smiled faintly.

Jonas ‘s mother Donna’s birthday party was held at Ruxfort Manor. When they got to the door, Rosalind

saw Jonas, who was dressed in a moonlight-white suit, looking urbane and outstanding in the crowd.

“You’re finally here. I have been waiting for a long time, exclaimed Jonas.

Seeing Damian’s car, Jonas walked over in delight.

When Jonas saw Rosalind getting out of the car in a white embroidered dress, he opened his eyes

wide and was amazed.

Jonas always knew that Rosalind was beautiful but Rosalind looked exceedingly gorgeous in this

dress. Jonas ‘s heart beat frantically at the first sight he had of her.

“You are amazing today” Jonas praised her sincerely.

“Thanks,” Rosalind smiled lightly and accepted it with pleasure.

Yanna called out, “Uncle Jonas, do I look good today! Rosalind put me in this dress today and I love it.”

Yanna was carried out by Damian. She touched the hair on her head and grinned.

Jonas chuckled, “Of course. Yanna, you are the most adorable little princess in the room, and Kevin,

you’re such a handsome boy!”

Jonas praised both Yanna and Kevin.

Yanna and Kevin were both pleased by Jona s’s words. Jonas was so much better than Leonardo

when it came to complimenting people.

Damian said gently, “Let’s go. A lot of guests are already here. Mom really likes the clothes you

designed for her, and she’s been talking about expressing her gratitude to you in person tonight.”

Rosalind said, “Im really glad your mother likes the dress I designed for her! I should thank her for

letting so many people know me when she wears the dress I designed!”

Rosalind smiled faintly and decently.

Rosalind asked Damian to take the two kids to find some food for them, and Jonas took Rosalind

directly to Donna

When they came to Jonas ‘s mother, Donna was beaming and introducing the dress she was wearing

to a few of her friends.

Chapter 1 35

All of her friends were dressed in traditional costumes or classical-style dresses.

Donna was a plump, cheerful woman. When she smiled, she had tiny wrinkles at the corners of her

eyes, which made her look affable

Rosalind finally realized why Jonas was so spontaneous and cheerful. He had the personality of his

mother.

“Mom, Rosalind is here!” called out Jonas,

“Rosalind is here. Come here, Rosalind, smiled Donna cordially.

Hearing the name of Rosalind, Donna’s eyes lit up and she waved to Jonas.

Rosalind flinched before the situation. She didn’t expect Donna to be so enthusiastic, which made her a

little unaccustomed. but she quickly adjusted herself and greeted Donna with a professional smile.

Donna greeted, “It’s so good to see you, Rosalind. Just call me Donna. You look so gorgeous. No

wonder Jonas talked about you all the time. He’s a lucky young man.”

Donna was welcoming. She took Rosalind’s hand and sized Rosalind up, and the smile on her face got

even bigger.

Rosalind smiled, “Thank you, Donna! It’s good to see you too.”

Donna’s enthusiasm was beyond Rosalind’s imagination. Rosalind was just a designer. She found it a

bit strange that Dorina was being too enthusiastic about her.

Rosalind looked at Jonas in confusion, as if asking him what was going on.

Jonas shrugged helplessly as if saying that he didn’t know either.

In fact, Jonas knew that Donna was so enthusiastic about Rosalind because he mentioned Rosalind

many times before her. Donna knew that Jonas had a crush on Rosalind. In addition, Donna heard

about what had happened at the auction for Jonas ‘s grandmother’s birthday dinner.

But, as enthusiastic as Donna was, she was also polite. She introduced Rosalind to her friends and

complimented Rosalind on her designs.

Rosalind knew that Donna was doing this to introduce her to more potential clients, and the smile on

Rosalind’s face grew

more sincere.

When Leonardo arrived, he saw Rosalind smiling with shyness and surrounded by a group of women.

It was Jonas ‘s mother who led them.

Leonardo could tell that Jonas ‘s mother liked Rosalind. She patted Rosalind’s hand from time to time,

and Rosalind didn’t reject it. They were as close as mother and daughter, which frustrated Leonardo a

bit.

He thought, ‘Did Jonas take Rosalind to see his parents?

Rosalind agreed?

Has this cruel woman forgotten about me?’

Suddenly, someone said, “Leonardo, is Rosalind gonna marry Jonas? Looks like Jonas ‘s mother likes

Rosalind a lot, and I bet they’re going to be close families.”

It was Virginia, Hearing her mention “close families, Leonardo’s face turned aloof.

“Shut up if you don’t know what to say!” snapped Leonardo.

Leonardo glanced at Virginia coldly,

Virginia’s face turned pale with fear from Leonardo, and Dylan beside her was trembling with fear. He

pulled Virginia and wanted to stay away from Leonardo.

“Mom, let’s go over there and have some fun. It’s not fun here at all.”
