It wasn’t until he nearly took all her breath away that Ulric finally released Rosalind’s lips.
Rosalind’s lipstick was smudged significantly, making her lip color almost match her flushed cheeks.
“Rosalind, I thought you were quite smart back in middle school.”
“…”
Ulric raised his hand and ruffled her hair. “I have a meeting. We’ll talk about it when I get home tonight.”
With that, he turned to leave.
Rosalind quickly asked, “Hey! How is Sirena doing now?”
After all, she had pushed Sirena, and the blood was real. Rosalind was still concerned about it.
“She’s fine, don’t worry.”
“Oh.”
Watching his figure disappear into the office, Rosalind couldn’t help but ponder what Ulric’s words meant.
He said they were husband and wife and that his relationship with Sirena was purely professional, as if he was clarifying his stance towards Sirena.
But…
The tattoo of 0825 was still there, and the door lock code was still Sirena’s initials. Could it be that Ulric had suddenly come to his senses and decided not to like Sirena anymore?
Would Ulric’s next step be to remove the tattoo?
For some reason, the thought of this possibility made her heart flutter inexplicably.
She couldn’t quite pinpoint why.
…
After work, as soon as Rosalind left the company, she saw Ulric’s assistant waiting for her.
She looked around to make sure no one noticed before quickly opening the car door and getting in.
“I can go to Easthaven Bay by myself.”
“Mr. Walters instructed me to pick you up.” This assistant was the only subordinate who knew about their relationship, but being Ulric’s man, he kept his mouth shut tightly.
“Then I’ll tell him not to bother tomorrow.”
Rosalind didn’t want anyone to see her having any private contact with Ulric.
There were already too many rumors, and adding Ulric to the mix would be a sensational drama.
When the car arrived at Easthaven Bay, the assistant watched her go inside before driving away.
Returning to this place again, Rosalind felt a bit indescribable. When she left last time, she thought things between her and Ulric should have ended.
It must have been because Ulric had been on a business trip recently, and there was no cleaning lady. When Rosalind hung up her clothes, she noticed a layer of dust on the floor.
Since she had no work at hand, she decided to clean the house.
After cleaning inside and out, Rosalind was exhausted and drenched in sweat!
Suddenly, she heard the sound of the door opening from outside.
She thought it was Ulric, so she walked over with a basin of water for mopping. To her surprise, it was a lady dressed in luxurious attire.
“Who are you…” Audrey was as surprised to see Rosalind as Rosalind was to see her.
After all, everyone in the Walters family knew that her son’s house was off-limits to outsiders.
Rosalind stood there, unsure of what to say. Fortunately, Audrey spoke first, “You must be the maid my son hired?”
Because Rosalind was holding a basin with a cloth inside, it was easy to mistake her for a cleaning lady.
Hearing this, Rosalind immediately nodded. “Yes, I’m here to clean for Mr. Walters.”
From Audrey’s words, Rosalind could tell who this lady was.
Moreover… Ulric actually resembled his mother quite a bit. Both had refined features and deep-set eyes. Even though his mother was over fifty, she still retained her charm.
