Rosalind’s heart felt as if it were being squeezed tightly, her mind went blank in an instant.
Ulric didn’t marry Sirena?
“So how could you remarry someone else? Rosalind, you are so heartless.” Johnny clicked his tongue a few times, his tone dripping with sarcasm. “A few years ago, you could toy with Ulric at your whim, and now you can easily make Lion fall head over heels for you. I have to admit, that’s quite a skill.”
“Have you said enough?”
Rosalind suddenly interrupted coldly because she really didn’t want to hear Ulric’s name again. It made her heart tremble every time. “Although I don’t know why you’re telling me all this today, let me be clear: Ulric and I will never have any relationship again! You know very well that if I wanted to contact Ulric, there are many ways to do it, and none of you could stop me. So rest assured, I really don’t want any more entanglements with him. As for the Walters family and Sirena, as long as they have nothing to hide, they don’t need to care about someone as insignificant as me! So there’s no need for you to waste your time talking to me like this. Your sarcasm doesn’t affect me; I don’t care.”
“You-”
In truth, Johnny didn’t even know what he was trying to accomplish!
On one hand, he was glad that his good friend had escaped from this heartless woman early on. On the other hand, he felt it was unfair to Ulric!
Seeing Rosalind starting her life anew, thriving in her career, and even getting married to another man made him furious.
He was angry because his foolish friend still hadn’t moved on from Rosalind!
Even though Ulric kept denying it, Johnny didn’t believe him!
“My husband and I are very happy now. You can ask Lion if our relationship is good.” Rosalind felt that Johnny was just trying to confirm that she wouldn’t bother Ulric anymore, so she decided to be blunt. “Even if Ulric were standing in front of me right now, I would still choose my husband.”
With that, Rosalind walked away in her high heels.
She felt that she couldn’t keep her promise today and pretend everything was fine while sitting with Johnny for a meal. She could only apologize to Lion.
Behind her, Johnny silently took out his phone.
The call duration showed: 10:29
“You heard everything?”
“Yes.”
Indeed, after hanging up the first time, Johnny had called Ulric again but didn’t take the phone out of his pocket, so Rosalind didn’t see it. Ulric didn’t hang up either; he just quietly listened to Rosalind’s words.
Listening to her repeatedly say “my husband.”
At that moment, Johnny suddenly regretted it!
He shouldn’t have impulsively made Ulric listen to all this.
Knowing full well that every word Rosalind said was like a knife to his friend’s heart…
“Ulric, I-”
“It’s nothing. As long as she feels happy.” Ulric’s tone sounded flat, but Johnny knew he was suppressing his emotions.
For years, there hadn’t been a smile on Ulric’s face!
The culprit was Rosalind.
“She’s already married; the whole company knows. Ulric, this woman is really ruthless! She’s clearly a heartbreaker! I think you should just get married too, marry Sirena! Why make your parents angry over her?”
“Johnny, my love for her is my business.” Whether she loves me or not is her freedom.
