Chapter 108 Remember, I'm Your Man
"Don't be angry, I gave you this money willingly. It doesn't have to do with anyone else. I know you don't care about these things, but I want to give you a better life."
He let go of her after finishing his words. "You don't like branded bags or luxury goods, but I know that Cecil is very important to you. I wanted you to cure his illness with this money."
Rosa frowned and looked at him seriously. She was speechless for a moment.
"You don't need to be so pressured, and there's no need for you to be uneasy. You just need to remember that I'm your man. I'll protect you. I'll love you and cherish you. We're not doing anything wrong. So what even if I gave you a billion dollars? You don't have to care about what others think. You're spending your life with me, not them, right?"
The man's tone was very gentle. He smiled at her elegantly.
His actions were incredibly gentle. He was treating her like a precious piece of art.
Rosa placed her hands on his chest and looked up at him.
"I don't want to involve too much money in our relationship... Uncle... I don't like this!"
If they added more factors into this relationship...
Then their feelings wouldn't be so genuine.
He hugged her and swayed gently as he said, "I know, I know! Just think of it as you guarding my money for me, okay?"
"Uncle..."
"Good girl. We'll continue this conversation if we really do break up in the future!"
He chuckled. Of course, he wouldn't give her an opportunity to do so.
Rosa poked out her head and looked at him. "Do you think it's troublesome? You can give me your card. I'll keep it for you!"
"Smooch" He kissed her pouted lips.
"You're nagging like a sparrow!" He laughed helplessly.
Rosa blushed. "I didn't... I just..."
"Alright, I was very tired last night and couldn't sleep well. Would you like to sleep with me for a while?"
He said as he pulled her to the bed.
Naturally, Rosa refused immediately. "No... don't... don't be like this. The sun is up already. You still want to sleep?"
"Just a little nap, okay? Just a little!" He pulled her and they both fell into the bed.
Rosa immediately resisted him.
The man held back as he said, "I won't do anything to you. I'll just hug you and sleep for a while, okay?"
After finishing his sentence, he stopped moving.
As he said, he held her in his arms for a while and then fell asleep again.
Two hours later...
Rosa was really angry.
"Good girl, I'll see you after work!" The man drove her back home.
He gave her back both of the phones and the bank book.
"Uncle..."
"Be obedient, you're keeping it for me, yeah?" After saying that, he smiled and drove away.
Rosa sighed helplessly. How was she going to explain this to Cecil?
"Ring ring ring" Suddenly, her phone started ringing.
Rosa quickly looked at her phone. It was a call from Grace.
In the morning, Cecil told her that Grace was looking for her.
She was originally going to call her back, but after seeing the bank book she got too angry and immediately rushed over.
Because of this, she completely forgot to call Grace.
She didn't waste another second and immediately answered the phone.
"Hey, Grace, where are you?"
"Rosa... I'm leaving!" Grace sounded completely emotionless.
"Where are you going?" Rosa asked hurriedly.
"Getting rid of the child. He's giving me compensation. I will go back to my hometown to accompany my grandmother. Then I'll go on a trip to cool down." Grace said lightly. "Do you need me to go back with you?" In fact, Rosa was still very worried about her.
"There's no need to. You need a few hours to reach my hometown. Cecil needs you. Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'm at the station now. I'll head off soon!"
As Grace spoke, Rosa could indeed hear the sounds of cars from her side.
"Grace..."
She had a lot to say but didn't know where to start. She could only start sobbing.
"After I'm done, I'll go visit you!"
"Okay, if you need anything, just call me!" Rosa said hurriedly.
"Okay! I'll hang up now. They're checking my ticket now!" Grace said and hung up.
Rosa looked at her phone and was overwhelmed with emotions.
She hoped that after this trip, Grace could finally let him go.
For now, Grace's story has come to a halt.
She could finally rest assured.
However, not even a second later, she received a call.
Rosa frowned at the unfamiliar number.
Yet, she still answered the call.
"You're so capable! Aren't you playing hard to get?"
The voice on the phone was filled with contempt.
Rosa had heard this voice before, so she naturally knew who it was.
"Miss Baker, I don't understand what you're talking about."
"Haha, are you sure you don't understand? Tell me, are you the one who is confused, or is your brother the one confused? Ha, you seduced your best friend's uncle. Does your brother know?" Rosa's face darkened. "What are you talking about?!"
"Oh, so you don't understand? Do you need me to explain it in detail?" The woman's words were filled with thorns.
"Ms. Baker, have some tea!" Suddenly, Cecil's voice could be heard from the call.
Rosa's heart skipped a beat. She yelled at the phone, "Where are you?"
"Thank you, Cecil. You're such a nice boy!" Paige said with a smile before hanging up the call. Rosa quickly looked towards her house. Without hesitation, she immediately ran home.
She opened the door, panting.
NOW PLAY YOUR
FAVOURITE GAMES ON
She immediately shouted in shock, "Paige!"
The sound of Cecil's wheelchair appeared. "Sister, Ms. Baker came to see you just now!"
"Where is she?" Rosa walked around the house.
But she didn't see anyone.
"Well, She didn't stay and wait, so she just left earlier. Oh, and, she gave you a gift."
"A gift? What gift?" Rosa frowned.
"Well, it seems like it's a cosmetic set. By the way, she said that she wanted me to thank you for driving her mistress away."
"What?" Rosa looked at Cecil in astonishment.
"Sister, you're amazing. Ms. Baker said that her friend's fiance was seduced by a female student and was almost taken away. It was you who helped her friend and drove the mistress away. You're amazing, sister. How did you do it?"
Cecil was very curious.
These heroic acts could only be seen on television.
Rosa's face instantly darkened.
She was indirectly mocking her!
"By the way, Ms. Baker said that she wanted to start a company to settle the dispute. It seems like she wants you to be the manager and help those fiancees catch their mistresses!"
After that, Cecil frowned. "Sister, although it's a good thing, but will it be dangerous? It isn't nice to have mistresses!"
Rosa frowned and clenched her fists tightly.
She looked extremely troubled.
"Paige, you've gone too far!" She thought.
"Sister... sister..." Seeing that she did not reply, Cecil could not help but call her a few times.
Rosa quickly came to her senses and looked at Cecil.
"Sister, I hate bad women, especially those who destroy other people's families. Mistresses are so immoral, don't you think so?"
Rosa stared at him. For a moment, she really didn't know what to say.
He told her that their relationship was not what other people think.
Moreover, he would soon clarify this matter.
But...
Before that, she's...
"Sister, what's wrong?" Cecil asked after seeing her face suddenly darkened.
"It's nothing. Well, I'll go have a rest and prepare dinner!"
"Okay!"
Cecil didn't think much about it and pushed his wheelchair back to his room.
Rosa returned to her room and sat on the bed, looking very uncomfortable.
Her cell phone rang again.
It was still the same number.
Rosa was extremely angry.
"Paige, you're going too far!"
"Haha, what's wrong? Are you angry? Your brother seems to be more upright than you. As I said, he is very excited that you're going to catch a mistress. If he knows that you are a mistress who seduces someone else's fiance and her best friend's uncle, what would he do?"
"How dare you!" Rosa said furiously.
Hearing this, Paige was naturally very angry. "What do you mean by I dare? I, Paige, have nothing that I don't dare to do. Besides, what I said is the truth!"
Rosa took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
Then, she chuckled and said, "Since you hate me so much, why don't you just announce it?"
Paige was stunned and said in disbelief, "Are you sure you want me to announce it? Haha, if I announce it, your reputation..."
"If you announced it, then everyone would be curious of why Miss Baker is so talented and beautiful and yet can't catch a man's heart."
"If it is announced, everyone will say that even though Rosa has nothing, She won the man's heart with her talents."
"Of course, if it is announced, I don't know if Baker Enterprise's shares would be affected, but your image will definitely be affected in the company!"
Paige's face darkened all of a sudden. She yelled, "Rosa, are you trying to be shameless?"
"Shameless or not is my decision to make!" She said angrily.
"Ha, now you're threatening me. Do you really think I don't dare to announce you as a mistress to the public? Ha, you'll be drowning from haters comments by then!"
"Really? Then I can tell you for sure that before I drown, do you think Henry will let you off that easily?"
Her cold words really did stun Paige.
"Miss Baker, only you and Henry know about the legitimacy of your engagement. Are you sure that you really want to announce this? Then let's have a bet. If you really announced this to the public and Henry takes your side, I will vanish from this city with my brother and leave him without a trace. If you don't dare to announce it, then it proves that the relationship between you and Henry aren't as great as you said!"
Paige held her phone and did not reply, but her hands were trembling.
Indeed, the engagement between her and Henry was fake.
It was a lie to both of their parents.
The two of them also signed a contract before the engagement.
How could that woman know about this?
Could it be that he actually told her this third secret?
At this moment, she was flustered.
She was really scared.
She was afraid that Henry's feelings for her are genuine.
Otherwise, why would he tell her such an important thing?☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
