He suppressed himself, and in a low voice, called out unbearably, “Rosiley.”
He strode out heavily and stably while carrying her.
“Master, what do we do about him?” A man dressed in black who was waiting at the door asked.
He glanced at Lin Cheng, who was sprawled across the floor, with a cold gaze. He squinted his eyes slightly, releasing a hint of hatred.
“Destroy him.”
…
When Corey came out of the bathroom and went back to where he had been standing with his sister-in-law, he realized that she was not there.
In that split second, he panicked.
He thought that she had just walked away and was still at the venue. However, no matter how hard he looked, he could not find her. His calls also did not get through.
When he sensed that something was terribly wrong, he quickly contacted his brother and told him about the situation.
“Corey, if something happens to your sister-in-law, you’d better be prepared.”
His brother’s gloomy voice came from the other end of the line. Corey swallowed his saliva. He kept praying in his heart. “sister-in-law, you have to be okay.”
Otherwise, his brother would skin him alive.
This night was destined to not be peaceful.
…
“How is she?”
“After the shot, the aphrodisiac should start to wear off. She’ll be fine after getting some sleep.”
“Will there be any complications?”
“Usually not.”
Rosiley heard people conversing. She wanted to open her eyes and see clearly who it was. However, her eyelids felt so heavy. She could not lift them up no matter what.
“Xu, who’s this girl?”
Looking at the pure-looking girl lying on the bed, Finlay Zuo was very curious. The Yan Xu that he knew would never be near a female. He was so restrained that people could not help wondering about his preference.
And right now, there was a girl in his house, a very beautiful girl.
He could not be more curious.
“If I told you, would you then know her?”
Yan Xu’s cold voice was heard. The corners of Finlay Zuo’s lips twitched. “If you don’t, then I won’t even get to know her!”
Yan Xu walked toward her bedside and dimmed the lights. Then, he made Finlay Zuo leave with him.
“Her name is Rosiley.”
Yan Xu walked into the living room and sat down. He looked up at Finlay Zuo and smiled faintly. “So, do you know her?”
“Rosiley?” Finlay Zuo sat opposite him and his brows were furrowed deeply. “Why do I find this name very familiar? It feels like I heard it somewhere before.”
“A while ago, Yunis’s engagement was a whole mess. You should know that, right?”
“Of course I know.” Then he thought, “But why did he suddenly mention that?”
Finlay Zuo saw his meaningful smile and a thought flashed across his eyes. He suddenly realized what was going on and cried out, “Rosiley’s the poor woman who was betrayed by that fiance?”
Yan Xu frowned. “Watch your words.”
Finlay Zuo smiled awkwardly. “Sorry, I was too excited. Too excited.”
He continued and asked, “Then what is she doing here?”
Yan Xu did not answer him directly. Instead, he said with a deep meaning, “Finlay, nothing can be dirtier than a man’s heart.”
Finlay Zuo’s face was filled with question marks.
