The Unbreakable Bond By Cornelia Darwin

Chapter 1

Rosalind Jansen walked through the night, feeling the biting wind on her fare. Her hair was a wind– blown mess, covering most of her face, Right now, the torrential rain was hitting her so hand that it made her look like a drowned rat.

However, she had no time to clean up her face and long rain wet hair. She ran quickly to Peace Hospital with tears in her eyes, clutching a document in her hand tightly.

It was a divorce agreement.

It was a divorce agreement from Leonanda Brooks, the man Rosalind had loved for seven years.

But Rosalind didn’t believe it. She didn’t believe that Leonants would be so cruel. After four years of unrequited love, she finally got him and married him for three years. Even if there was a misunderstanding between them when they got married, she had done so many things for him in the past seven years. So she thought that he still cared about her.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had sex with her a month ago.

Rosalind wanted to ask Leonardo in person why he sent her the divorce agreement. She believed that Leonarda didn’t mean it, so she had to hear his explanation prisonally.

Rosalind ran to the inpatient department of Peace Hospits, as soon as possible and stood outside Maria’s ward,

Maria Brooks was Leonardo’s mother and Rosalind’s mother in law.

Even though Rosalind had been living with Maria for so long, the still felt uneasy when she was with her

Rosalind stood nervously outside the ward, carefully tidying up her wet hair in front of the window, and used the lipstick to make her pale lips rosier to make her look not too bad.

When everything was done, Rosalind put on a faint smile. She was ready.

She knew that Leonardo was taking care of the I Maria now. Maria was sensitive about her reputation and she hated it most when Rosalind disgraced the Brooks family.

Just as Rosalind was about to open the door to come in, she heard Maria’s weak but aggressive voice.

“When will you kick that woman out of the Brooks family, Leonarda?”

Hearing Maria’s words, Rosalind felt her heart skipped a bear. She knew exactly who the woman Mara was talking about. It was her.

In the Brooks family, Maria called her “that woman” in front of Leonardo more than once.

Rosalind felt it was ironic. Although she was Maria’s daughter–in–law, she had never been treated in the right way. Maria had always been very critical of her and kept calling her “that woman” in an arrogant jene.

“Why does Maria have to ask Leonardo to divorce me?” Rosalind thought nervously

Rosalind knew that the reason why she and Leonardo got married was not decent at all.

There was a misunderstanding Someone took a photo of her and him staying at the hotel and posted it on the interset,

The next day, the news that the daughter of the Jansen family spend a night with the son of the Bracks family caused a sensation in Haldorin. Although it was just a photo of them entering and leaving the hotel room, it was enough for people to throw dirt on their names.

Even the Brooks family’s reputation was greatly damaged after being criticized days, and all the staff of Brooks Group were panicked

public. The shares of Brooks Group fell for three consecutive

Therefore, Leonardo had to marry Rosalind for the reputation of the Brooks family and Brooks Group.

Kana and Leonardo had always thought that it was all Rosalind’s doing, but she didn’t. She didn’t know how it happened. She just happened to meet the drunk Leonardo and that was all. But nobody believed her.

“Don’t be angry, Mom. You need rest!” Leonardo suddenly said in a deep voice.

Rosalind could always hear such a gentle voice when Leonardo talked to his mother, but he had never been so gentle to her.

“How can not be angry? Did you forget how she got into the Brooks family and killed your father! She’s just a cunning woman who tried every means

to get you yet she hasn’t given you a chuld. She’s not qualided to be my daughter in law. She was a big disgrace to the Brooks family”

It seemed that Maria got mad every time the mentioned hosalind in her eyes, Rosalind was a great hundation to the Brooks family and even her nightmare

Rosalind shook her head and thought, “It’s not true. Fichard didn’t die because of me. I would never kill a person who was so kind to me.”

Rosalind was wronged, but she didn’t know how to explain it to them. Because whatever she said, they would not believe her.

“Mom.” Leonardo wanted to say something, but he was soon interrupted by Maria.

“Stop, You’ve already given the divorce agreement to her, right? Tell her to sign it and leave quickly. You said earlier that you kept her in the Brooks family just to let her alone for her mistakes. But now I don’t want to see her again and she doesn’t have to atone for her mistakes anymore. I only want

Virginia York to be my daughter in law. Even if you don’t like her, you have to think about the baby she’s carrying. He’s my grandson Do you make him a bastant before he is born?”

I want to

“Don’t worry about this, Mom, I have asked someone to take care of it already. I’ll get everything done. You only have to take a good rest. It’s not worth it to get because of her?”

Leonardo frowned and carefully stroked Maria’s back, trying to comfort her.

“If it weren’t for that shameless woman who pissed me off, how could I be so mad? Tell her to sign the divorce agreement now and go back to the Jansen family. Otherwise, she’s gonna kill me sooner or later”

Maria snorted and lay on the bed with the help of Leonardo.

Rosalind froze outside the ward. She couldn’t believe what she just heard.

She thought, Atone for my mistakes?

Did Leonardo marry me and let me be abused by Maria so that I could atone for my mistakes?

What mistakes have I made?

Is it because of Virginia? Or the baby?

Are Leonardo and Virginia going to have a kid?

How can it be possible? How?”

The shocking news came into Rosalind’s ears, making her suffocate. Tears streamed down her face again, and she withdrew her slender hand that was holding the doorknob, trembling

The conversation between Maria and Leonardo kept echoing in her mind.

Leonardo and Virginu…

Virginia..

Leonardo had always cared about Virginia.

There was a bitter smile on Rosalind’s pale face.

She was laughing at herself.

She had been her and loved Leonardo for so many years, but still, she was just a nobody in his life. She was nothing compared to Virginia.

‘Atonement

How ridiculous! Did I marry him just to atone for my mistakes?

What on earth did I do wrong? For god’s sake, my biggest mistake was to fall in love with Leonardo.

What am I waiting for? What am I expecting She thought. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Rosalind grabbed the divorce agreement in her hand tightly and suddenly felt disappointed.

She didn’t want to do this anymore She just lived with no dignity in a failed mariage, and she couldn’t even get love from Leonardo.

Rosalind took several steps back in a daze.

She walked towards the gate of Peace Hospital with a blank mind but happened to see someone she didn’t w

Virginia!

want to see again in her life.

Virginia was still as beautiful as she used to look like in college. She was like a fairy from heaven and looked more mature than before.

However, Virginia had a slight bulge in her belly now. She naturally protected her lower belly with her right hand while she was holding a color ultrasound report in her left hand. The image on the report was clear, which could show that it was a head image of a child whose face was blurry.

Thinking of what Mana and Leonardo had said before, Rosalind felt furious. She asked, “What are you doing here?”

Virginia seemed not to be surprised to meet Mosalind here. She smiled viciously and said, “Why can’t be here?”

“You… The baby.. Is i…” Rosalind had been preparing for a long time but sh

| couldn’t finish her words to ask whether it was Leonardo’s kid.

However, Virginia guessed what Rosalind was trying to say. So she smiled happily and said, “Yes, it’s Leonardo’s kid. It’s our kid!”

“Leonardo. Looks like you’re very close to him. Don’t you know he’s married? You shameless

Rosalind showed a bitter smile on her lace. Seeing Wirginia’s proud face, she felt that there was a volcano in her heart that was about to erupl.

“Married? So what? Leonardo doesn’t love you! Don’t forget how you seduced him, how your father forced him to marry you, and how he forced me to break up with Leonardo. Who are you to question me? You are the one between me and Leonard!”

Hearing Rosalind’s words, Virginia laughed and mocked her. Even the smile on Virginia’s fice became terrifying

11:41

“I didn’t!” Rosalind denied it subconsciously.

It was all a misunderstanding. She didn’t mean it.

Rosalind had fallen in love with Leonardo since he rescued her from several gangsters vallantly at the age of sixteen.

She followed him to the same university and even asked him to be her boyfriend regardless of her dignity and her classmates ridicule. She even didn’t sleep for two days just to design a sult for him.

Rosalind’s love for Leonardo was known to all, She had never used any dirty tricks to get the man she loved, let alone sleep with him directly.

She had always expressed her love openly. Even if Leonardo never accepted her, she had never given up.

But now, it seemed that she failed

When Rosalind woke up from the midnight dreams, she wished that she hadn’t done those things. She wished that she had never met Leonardo that night, never got curious about this man, and never followed him.

But it just happened. Maybe it was her fate. Everything that shouldn’t have happened had happened.

Eventually, she became the so called shameless and cunning woman who slept with a man to get him and who threatened him to marry her by asking someone to take a photo of them together and post it online.

She became a woman who was accused and scolded by everyone, disappointed her parent, and even hated by the man she loved.

She didn’t want any of it.

“You didn’t? Don’t play innocent with me, Rosalind. You are a cunning bich. You drugged Leonardo to take him from me. You made me sick! What are you trying to deny? Are you denying that you get Mr. Brooks killed?”

Seeing Rosalind’s panicked look, Virginia felt very happy. If it weren’t for her, Virginia would have already been Leonardo’s wife, the president’s wife of Brooks Group

It was Rosalind who ruined her plan.

But now Virginia finally got her revenge. Looking at the wrinkled divorce agreement in Rosalind’s hand, Virginia smiled disdainfully.

“Did you come here to ask Leonardo whether he means to divorce you? Did you get the answer you’ve been waiting for?”

Virginia ignored Rosalind’s devastated look. She held her bulging belly with her right hand and approached Rosalind.

Seeing Virginia’s round belly, Rosalind was so nervous that she stepped back subconsciously for fear of hurting her baby by accident

However, Rosalind’s heart ached again when she thought that the baby was Leonardo’s

“No, he won’t divorce me. He won’t..”

Rosalind kept shaking her head, trying to convince herself

“No? Are you still in your dreams, Rosalind? Do you think your father can still help you this time? Don’t be silly. There’s no way he can help you out. Stop daydreaming!”

Virginia’s eyes were full of ridicule and viciousness. When she was about to say something more, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar person. Suddenly, she sneered and approached Rosalind with her bulging belly

Rosalind moved backwards subconsciously to keep a distance from Virginia, but the next second, she heard Virginia’s scream.

“Oh my goodness, my baby. My poor baby.. Why? Why did you do this to him?”

Rosalind was scared by the sudden scream of Virginia. She reached out to help Virginia, but her hand was suddenly grabbed tightly by someone.

“What are you doing, Rosalind?”

Rosalind heard Lennardo’s cold voice and shrank with feat.

Leonardo’s indifferent look caused a sharp pain in Rosalind’s heart.

“I didn’L)She did it on purpose.. Rosalind denied.

“Shut up! Didn’t ask you to stay

tay at home? Why did you come to the hospital? How long have you been here?”

Leonardo didn’t seem to want to hear Rosalind’s explanation at all Instead, he questioned her seriously. Apparently, he was very mad about Rosalind coming to the hospital without telling him.

Seeing Leonardo’s impatient look, Rosalind felt sad again.

However, thinking of why she came to the hospital today, Rosalind didn’t bother to ask about Virginia anymore. She still wanted to ask Leonardo abou the divorce in person. There was a voice in her heart telling her that if she didn’t ask now, she would never get a chance to do it

Therefore, Rosalind showed Leonardo the wrinkled divorce agreement in her hand and asked word by word, “You didn’t send it to me, did your
