Yunis and Rorey were the only ones left in the room, which instantly became quiet.
Rorey threw a hateful glare at Yunis. Then, she turned around, walked to the side of her bed, and sat down with her back facing Yunis.
Seeing her like this, Yunis suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, and it drowned him instantly.
The reason why he had decided to be with Rorey in the beginning was that she was cleverer and sexier than the conservative and boring Rosiley. But as a man, having been with the same woman for so long, he was bound to feel different. It was especially so right now when her face really disgusted him. He did not even want to spend another second with her.
At least before her face fully recovered, he really would not want to be with her.
It was not that he had no feelings for Rorey, but that her recklessness had eroded the feelings away bit by bit.
Now that their child was gone, he had even less feelings for her.
Thinking of this, Yunis sighed and walked over to Rorey. He placed his hand on her shoulder softly and said gently, “Rorey, this time around, even though all of the netizens are lashing out at you, at least you have gained some recognition. This will be…”
“Recognition?” Before he could finish his words, Rorey interrupted him. She snorted, “I would rather not have this recognition. Do you know how people online are scolding me?”
She turned her head and looked into his eyes. Her gaze was filled with mockery. “I don’t think you do know. Your heart is not even with me anymore, why would you care about how others are scolding me?”
“Rorey.” Yunis frowned and called her name in a soft voice. There was a hint of annoyance showing in his expression. “Don’t deny me just because you can’t see my efforts.”
Rorey bit her lips and glared at him angrily. She did not make a sound.
Yunis sighed softly and continued. “As soon as the incident happened, I got someone to contact the media and those Weibo marketing accounts. No matter how much it costs, I’ll definitely get them to delete all the drafts.”
“So don’t be angry with me, okay?” He stared at her and his gaze was as gentle as water.
Rorey did love Yunis, so his gentleness was her soft spot. Her boiling dissatisfaction and the resentment in her heart faded away slowly under his gentle gaze.
“Then sign me with another company,” she said.
A dim light flashed across his eyes and he smiled gently. “Okay, I’ll help you find another company.”
“Yunis.” Rorey stretched out her hands and wrapped them around his waist. Then, she said with aggrievance, “I was already devastated when I lost the child, but now that my face is like this and the whole of the internet is against me, I’m feeling so horrible. If you also find me disgusting, then there’s no point in me even living anymore.”
Yunis caressed her hair. “That’s impossible. You’re my wife, why would I find you disgusting?”
His voice was very gentle, but his expression was so indifferent that there was not a trace of emotion in it.
Rosiley had been expecting Leila Shen to come and visit her.
But as for Yan Xu… she had not thought about it at all.
In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the ward and formed a faint halo on the floor.
Rosiley leaned against her bed as she lowered her head and focused on the book in her hands.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
She looked towards the door. “Come in.”
The door was pushed open and a petite figure came in.
She was wearing a cap, a pair of sunglasses, and a mask. No one could see her face clearly.
Rosiley’s lips curled. “Leila Shen.”
Without any hesitation, Rosiley called out the name of the visitor.
“How did you know it was me?” Leila Shen took off her mask and sunglasses and looked at her in surprise.
“Other than celebrities, who would walk around like that?” Rosiley could not help laughing.
