They didn’t take the initiative to seek out Dominic, as Dominic hadn’t yet earned that privilege. 

But what they never expected was that Alfred ushered someone in, and to their surprise, it was Madeline. 

Since it was nighttime, everyone was present. Gaze after gaze fell upon the newcomer. 

Madeline was a girl who could be considered pretty, and she carried herself with a polite and proper demeanor. She had the sort of appearance that would make parents feel comfortable letting their children play with her. 

In the past, the Quirk family had treated her quite well, often presenting her with gifts. However, ever since Dominic started dating Rosalie, everyone seemed to have turned against her. 

She stood in the grand hall, somewhat awkwardly enduring the unfriendly gazes that were directed at her. 

Among the gazes, Madeline found one that was rather piercing. That’s Rosalie’s sister–in–law, right? However, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her. The look she’s giving me is peculiar. Her gaze seems unfocused. 

Initially, Selena intended to share a few words from an elder’s perspective. However, Rosalie’s hurried footsteps interrupted her. 

“Maddie!” 

“Rosic!” 

It was clear that the two shared an exceptionally close bond. 

Christopher began to mock openly, “The girlfriend is fighting tooth and nail for the relationship. Yet, the boyfriend doesn’t even dare to show his face. Instead, he sent his own sister. Just how cowardly and despicable of a man is he?” 

Immediately, Rosalie said, “I don’t want you guys to put Dominic in a difficult position. It was me who told him not to come.” 

Madeline found herself in a difficult position, saying, “just came to see Rosie. Dom is also worried about her, but he knows that you guys might be upset if you guys see him, so he doesn’t dare to come and disturb you all. It’s Dom’s mistake to get Rosie to live with him without informing the Quirk family. However, Dom really likes Rosie too much. That’s why he did that. I apologize on Dom’s behalf 

After speaking, she bowed respectfully toward the Quirks. 

The Quirks had no intention of making things difficult for Madeline, so naturally, they wouldn’t say much. 

Immediately, Rosalie took Madeline back to her room. 

In the living room, Christopher was ceaselessly mocking Dominic for being evasive. Among all the people present, only Christopher had bumped into him unintentionally. According to Christopher, though Dominic had a semblance of respectability, his rogue–like demeanor was a dead giveaway of his true character. 

Yet, it seemed that these bad boys had a lethal attraction for the good girls.

The Quirks sighed in despair, troubled, unsure how to handle the situation properly. 

Ever since she had met Madeline, Isabella, seated on the couch, had remained quite silent. 

It wasn’t until Alexander brought Isabella some yogurt that he noticed her increasingly furrowed brows. He couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong?” 

Isabella’s lips twitched as she looked at Alexander, her gaze then sweeping over the others. “Nothing” 

The Quirks noticed that even though her torfe was castal, her expression was undeniably complex. What’s going on? This feels uneasy. Is something bad about to happen 

At that moment, Isabella thought, Hone should I break it to them? Maybe I should just ask the bodyguards to tighten the security at home. That should put an end to it. 

The Quirks were stumped. Security? What’s going on? Don’t leave us hanging with half a story! This is worrying! I feel as though I’m brutally assaulted by the perilous nature of humanity. The depravity of human nature can indeed surpass imagination, Isabella thought. 

The Quirks began to feel anxious. Why are things being portrayed so gravely? 

Who would have thought this would happen? All along, I thought the hooligan as trying to brainwash the rich young lady. As it turns out, the deceptive best friend is trying to ruin the name girl! Isabella thought. 

The Quirks were stunned. Wait! Isn’t that description a bit too terrifying? Is she suggesting that Madeline, that girl, is actually worse than Dominic? 

The look in Alexander’s eyes shifted momentarily. 

Just then, there was a stir from upstairs. Rosalie had set Madeline down. It appeared Madeline was planning to leave. 

At this point, everyone’s gaze toward Madeline became even more peculiar. 

As a result, Madeline felt a little uneasy. When she was just about to say goodbye, Alexander suddenly said, “Rosalie gave up her spot for the international exchange student program. I heard it’s been passed on to you.” 

Isabella was taken aback for a moment, looking at Alexander with a hint of admiration. Impressive! He’s managed to pinpoint the crux of the matter so quickly. 

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately shot Madeline a sharp gaze. Could that be it? 

Faced with Alexander’s inherently domineering aura, Madeline almost failed to keep her composure. 

“That’s right. I happen to be right behind Rosie on the list, but I’ve tried to advise Rosie before. It’s just. Madeline wore a helpless expression. 

In essence, it subtly emphasized that Madeline didn’t steal the spot, but rather Rosalie willingly gave it up. She simply took advantage of an opportunity that presented itself, 

Christopher scoffed and retorted, “What a coincidence Don’t tell me you two siblings planned this all along, one playing with my sister’s emotions, the other cheming for my sister’s position.

That’s right! It was all planned out, deceiving the innocent and naive girl together! Of course, the purpose isn’t just that… Isabella thought. 

Hearing that, the Quirks became even more anxious. What else is there? 

In an instant, Madeline’s eyes welled up with tears as if she had been deeply humiliated. She gently tugged at the sleeve of Rosalie, who was standing next to her. 

However, she noticed that Rosalie’s complexion was somewhat off. For a moment, Rosalie’s gaze was elusive. Once Rosalie had regained her senses, she hurriedly said, “My decision has nothing to do with Maddiel Alex, Chris, please don’t make things difficult for Maddie.” 

The dummy is defending the trickster! Isabella thought. 

Rosalie’s momentum was immediately halted by the sarcasm, and she quickly stole a glance at Isabella. Why does everyone always assume that what Bella says is the truth? It’s hard to be certain about such mysterious 

matters. 

Rosalie still chose to trust her friend. Holding back, she pretended not to hear anything. 

Madeline noticed that Rosalie was as steadfast as ever, a clear sign that the latter hadn’t wavered. However, Madeline had yet to respond to the other accusation. 

With a swift shift in her gaze, Madeline suddenly said sincerely, “The exchange student incident is truly a coincidence. I’m aware that everyone’s reservations about me stem from Dom dating Rosie, I also: acknowledge that Dom might not be worthy of Rosie, But his feelings for her are genuine. He wishes to treat her well for a lifetime. I hope you all can give them a chance and not ruthlessly tear them apart.” 

Christopher was instantly incensed. He retorted, “His feelings are genuine? If that’s the case, why haven’t you shown any sincerity? You’re all a bunch of liars. Stop pretending in front of us. Let me make this clear today. The Quirk family will never allow such a hooligan to be Rosalie’s boyfriend! Never ever!” 

Upon hearing these words, Rosalie froze 

Though Christopher acted impulsively, no one else refuted his actions. This implied that his actions. represented the collective intent of the entire Quirk family 

Madeline’s eyes flickered as she looked toward Rosalie, a secretive smile tugging at the corner of her lips. Have you made up your mind yet? 

“Why? Why are you all so ruthless? Even if you don’t like him, won’t you give us a chance Rosalie’s eyes. welled up with tears. 

Madeline quickly supported Rosalie, offering silent comfort. It was as if they were two isolated individuals united in their fight against malevolent forces. 

“Initially, I–didn’t want to voice out my concerns and worry you all, but you’ve all gone too far. There’s something you guys aren’t aware of! When I was abroad on a research trip, if it weren’t for Dom saving me, I could have been in serious trouble!” Rosalie said. 

“What?” David and Selena were immediately taken aback, unable to keep their happened?” 

composure. “What 

This was when Rosalie began to explain the reasons behind her gradual emotional openness toward

Dominic 

In the past, Rosalie was deeply engrossed in her art. Often, if left unsupervised, she would become so absorbed in her work that she would forget to eat, leading to dizziness and even fainting from hypoglycemia. One late evening, she was the only one left in the art studio. She became so entranced in her work that she eventually passed out from hunger. It was Dominic who found her and carried her back 

to her dorm. 

Rosalie then revealed, “When I woke up, the room was filled with the aroma of food, as if an invisible hand had pulled me out of a dark and cold place. had heard before that he had never cooked, but that day, he used the rented kitchen utensils to prepare three dishes and soup for me. From then on, he watched over me daily, ensuring I would never miss a meal. If I ever forgot, he would always bring me food he had cooked himself. He didn’t even do this for his own family, only for me. If I were to lose such a wonderful person, who else would treat me this way?” 

Rosalie was moved by her own words. 

Christopher couldn’t hold his tongue any longer. “That’s it? Our housekeepers can whip up seven dishes. and a soup for you!” 

Rosalie immediately retorted, “It’s not the same. It’s a kind of warm feeling. Those dishes were filled with care and love. Even if they were not the most delicious, I could still sense the difference. Prior to that, I never tasted- 

Evian couldn’t bear to listen quietly anymore. “Rosie, have you forgotten? When we were young, Mom tried to cook for us. However, she was a disaster in the kitchen. One time, you even got food poisoning because of her. That’s why we stopped her from entering the kitchen. What did you mean when you talked about care and love? What have you never tasted? Haven’t we provided enough of that?” 

The entire family was staring at Rosalie, their accusatory gazes causing her to falter on her feet. 

Rosalie was taken aback, about to say something. Right then, she heard Isabella laughing inwardly. 

Hahaha! I’m dying of laughter! How is she so easily moved? Just like that, Rosalie is already planning to elope with that man without her family knowing! She didn’t even realize that the meal was nothing more than a food delivery ordered by the sem! He simply re–plated the dishes! Isabella thought.
