Xenia Zhao’s change of tone stunned Rosiley before her lips curled into a mocking smirk.
“Do I need your permission to send my father to the USA? Please stop interfering with my family business.”
“Rosiley, how can you…”
“Please get out. I want to accompany my father myself.” Rosiley interrupted her mercilessly.
As she spoke, she turned around and ignored her stepmother.
Xenia Zhao had never wanted to stay. She glared maliciously at Rosiley before leaving hastily.
She had to tell Rorey about the plan to send Seneca to the United States. Then, they could be prepared to handle future events.
After Xenia Zhao left, Rosiley grabbed her father’s warm hands and whispered, “Dad, I will make sure that those who hurt you are duly punished. I will protect Group and return it to you once you recover.”
After she finished speaking, she stared into her father’s pale face and looked at his shut eyes. She felt a sourness in her heart as she murmured, lowering her head, “Dad, you have to recover soon.”
The ward turned silent once more with only the beeping sounds of the machines audible. Rosiley sat quietly beside the bed, squeezing her father’s hand tightly. Behind her, a mischievous wind blew in and lifted the curtains playfully.
We can forgive someone who commits a mistake for the first time.
But what about the second time?
Yayoi had been deeply asleep when the sound of the alarm shocked her awake. She tried to cover her head with a blanket to block out the annoying alarm.
However, it was ineffective as the alarm kept ringing.
She had to give up and throw away the blanket. sitting upright, she decided to turn off the alarm clock.
With her pupils dilated, she saw Morphy!
Him again!
She stared at him in confusion as memories of the previous night entered her head.
After leaving Rosiley’s house, she had returned home. However, once she had returned home, she had received a call from Morphy. However, the person on the phone had said that he was a bartender from a bar and wanted her to pick up a drunk customer.
“I am sorry, you have the wrong number.” She didn’t say much before hanging up.
Before she could put down her phone, it had rung again. This time, it was from Morphy.
She picked up the phone. “I told you I don’t know this drunk. Stop calling me.”
“Yayoi…” The familiar deep voice came from the other end of the phone. Hearing the voice, she bit her lips and tightened her grip on the phone.
“Yayoi, why do you… eh… treat me like a stranger? I do… truly… love you.”
He could not speak in complete sentences as he was so intoxicated.
