Seeing her resolute demeanor, Ulric was somewhat surprised.
He had never seen such a sharp Rosalind before.
Usually, although she wasn’t particularly close to anyone, she also didn’t hold grudges and focused all her energy on work.
But thinking about it, it wasn’t incomprehensible! After all, Sirena had framed her, leading to this situation. It was normal for her to dislike Sirena.
“Don’t worry, once her actions are verified, the company will give her the appropriate punishment.”
“Okay, I trust you.”
Rosalind didn’t want to always have disputes with Ulric because of Sirena.
After all, there were still many headaches today, for example: Mrs. Eva.
…
Standing outside the hospital, Rosalind looked up at the building, calculating how to talk to her mother.
Ulric’s mother couldn’t accept it, and her own mother wasn’t in the best health either.
After thinking for a long time, she gritted her teeth and stepped inside.
In the morning, Eva needed to do rehabilitation to help her slightly atrophied calf muscles walk normally, so when Rosalind first arrived, Eva didn’t notice anything wrong with her daughter.
It wasn’t until she helped her leave the rehabilitation room that she noticed her daughter was unusually quiet today.
“What’s wrong?”
Rosalind stiffened and shook her head, “Nothing, nothing’s wrong.”
“You’ve never been good at lying. Tell me, what happened?” Eva stopped and looked at her.
The hospital corridor was bustling with people coming and going. Although no one paid attention to them, it still added invisible pressure on Rosalind.
Seeing her hesitate to speak, Eva suddenly said, “Did you handle that matter with Ulric? Is it resolved?”
“Mom, between him and me…”
“Don’t tell me you two have developed feelings!” Eva hit the nail on the head. After all, she knew her daughter well enough. “Rosalind, I’ve told you from the beginning not to have any thoughts of climbing up the social ladder! Don’t dream of becoming a phoenix perched on a high branch! We don’t belong to their world. When they get tired of you one day, you won’t even have the power to fight back!”
Eva had seen it clearly over the years!
If her own family had been more prestigious than the Ruell family back then, they wouldn’t have dared to treat her like this! Unfortunately, she couldn’t win against their family background or status and ended up being bullied by them.
Now her daughter was following in her footsteps, finding a man even more prestigious than the Ruell family. How terrifying!
Eva knew very well that if her daughter suffered grievances or bullying in the Walters family, even if she risked her life, she wouldn’t be able to seek justice for her. Sometimes people are powerless to do things, not because they don’t want to, but because they simply can’t.
The Walters family could easily dominate Northville City and even the entire country. To put it bluntly, if her daughter died in the Walters family, she might not even have a way to seek justice.
“Mom, he won’t. He’s really good to me.”
“And do you think if your father hadn’t been good to me back then, I would have married him wholeheartedly?”
“…”
Eva sneered, “Men can do anything when they’re interested and make any promises. You’re still young, so you’re easily blinded by him!”
Rosalind had anticipated that her mother would say these things, but this time she wasn’t shaken.
“I want to trust him once.”
“You truly are my daughter.” Eva’s face turned frighteningly cold. “Fine then. If you choose not to leave him, don’t come back. Don’t see me or call me mom.”
