The air seemed to freeze in an instant.
Rosalind waited several seconds without hearing his voice, then tentatively spoke, “Ulric?”
“I’m coming to pick you up right now.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Rosalind felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders. It was as if any obstacles in her future no longer scared or worried her.
She suddenly felt very determined, as long as Ulric didn’t back down, she wouldn’t either.
Having made this decision, she felt much more at ease!
Even though she hadn’t slept all night, Rosalind felt energized. She got up, changed clothes, washed up, and even put on a bit of makeup.
When she walked out of the bedroom, Tilda was stretching lazily with disheveled hair and looked at her in surprise.
“Where are you going?”
“Ulric is coming to pick me up.”
Tilda stood there in shock for almost a minute. “So? You’ve made up your mind?”
Rosalind nodded. “Yes, you’re right. I should live for myself for once. If he can give up so much and still choose me, it would be unfair to him if I kept backing down.”
“Exactly, exactly!” Tilda was so excited she almost cried. “Rosalind, remember, you deserve a good man! You deserve to be cherished! Mr. Walters has recognized that!”
She walked over and hugged Rosalind tightly. “Rosalind, you must be happy!”
“Mm!”
Rosalind took a deep breath. “I will.”
She knew that if she missed Ulric’s genuine affection this time, there would never be another man who would treat her this way.
This feeling of being cherished was something she wanted to hold onto forever.
When Ulric arrived, Rosalind was still hugging Tilda. It wasn’t until his call came that they reluctantly separated.
She grabbed her bag and walked out, feeling light and joyful with each step.
When she saw Ulric, she felt an inexplicable shyness…
Even though they had already done everything together.
Ulric naturally walked over with his long strides and took the bag from her hand.
Rosalind cleared her throat. “Um… don’t you need to go back to the office today?”
“Cedric will handle things there. I haven’t slept all night and want to go back and rest.” His voice was hoarse, and his handsome face showed obvious signs of fatigue.
But if Rosalind asked, he would undoubtedly come to pick her up first.
“Oh.” She lowered her head and followed him. Suddenly, Ulric stopped walking, causing her to bump into his back!
“You don’t want me to take time off to get a divorce certificate, do you?”
“… No, no, I was just asking!”
Ulric raised an eyebrow and finally realized. “You don’t want a divorce anymore?”
“Mm.” Rosalind nodded with a smile, feeling a bit shy. “Mr. Walters has been so good to me, taking care of me and trusting me. If I insist on a divorce, wouldn’t that be ungrateful?”
A slight smile finally appeared on Ulric’s handsome face.
This was probably the first time he had genuinely felt happy in a while.
He raised his large hand and tapped her forehead. “You just realized you’re being ungrateful.”
“It’s your fault for not letting me know what you were doing,” Rosalind looked at him. “You should have told me about the Huayi Enterprises project.”
Ulric was taken aback. “How did you find out?”
“Johnny came to see me. He told me everything you did.”
