Chapter 73 I Said, Let's Break Up!
Celestine's words hit her like a truck.
Rosa's brows furrowed. She was stunned and asked in disbelief, "What... what do you mean by that?"
"What I mean? Don't you know what I mean? Rosa, let me ask you, do you know Henry?" Celestine narrowed her eyes and stared at her.
Rosa's face changed in an instant. Why did she mention that man?
Seeing the change in her expression, Celestine knew that she indeed knew him!
"What is your relationship with him, lover? mistress?" Celestine said with a hint of mockery.
Henry and Paige's engagement news spread like wildfire.
Therefore, her status was self-evident!
Rosa's face darkened instantly. "Mrs. Wright, please have some respect!"
Celestine snorted coldly. Obviously, she did not take her seriously. "What's wrong? Are you angry? If you were not his lover, why would he interfere between you and Andy?"
"I don't understand what you mean!" Rosa frowned and said in a cold voice.
Celestine glanced at her, and her voice was full of disdain and sarcasm. "Because of you, that man intervened in Wright family's business. One of the companies owned by Andy's father is now bankrupt in an instant, and the other is in critical condition, and it's all because of you!"
She didn't like her at first, and now she hated her even more!
"How is that possible? No, what you said couldn't be true..." Rosa hurriedly said in a panic.
"Why would I lie to you? How long do you want to keep deceiving yourself? Do you really have nothing to do with that man?"
A mocking smile appeared on Rosa's thin lips as she said, "No, no. If that's the case... Andy would have told me..."
"Rosa, last night, Andy looked for that man. He said that if he chose you in five days, the Wright family would be completely bankrupt!" She raised her voice, sounding sad and angry.
Rosa clenched her fists tightly. Her face was pale and her lips were trembling violently.
"No, no..."
Seeing this, Celestine realised something.
Perhaps, she really didn't know about it.
Therefore, she lowered her tone and said, "Didn't you say that you love Andy? How could you bear to see his family go bankrupt completely? Also, knowing that man's influence, did you really think you two could still be together even if we go bankrupt? No, that's not possible. That man would destroy people for business without even batting an eye. He does things decisively and cruelly. He could destroy the Wright's company and Andy. Do you really want to see the person you love be completely destroyed?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Celestine started sobbing.
Rosa looked up in horror into Celestine's reddened eyes. For a moment, she was stunned.
"I beg you, let Andy go. We can't afford to offend that man. If you love him, let him go, okay?" She grabbed Rosa's hand and said, choking in between sobs.
Rosa withdrew her hand and stood up.
"Mrs. Wright... I'm sorry. I have class tomorrow. I'll head back first!"
"Rosa! I'm telling you, even if I have to risk my life, I won't let you destroy Andy!" Celestine shouted behind her.
Rosa started sprinting.
"In five days, if he chooses you. Then Wright's family will go completely bankrupt!"
"If he can destroy the Wright's company, he can destroy Andy. Do you really want to see the person you love be completely destroyed?"
"Our family can't afford to offend that man. If you love him, let him go, okay?"
Celestine's words kept lingering in her mind, like a spell.
Rosa ran all the way home.
"Sister, you're back?" Cecil pushed the wheelchair out.
Rosa slammed the door shut.
Cecil frowned. "What's going on?" he wondered.
Back in her room, she curled up on the bed and hugged herself tightly with both hands.
"Rosa, no matter what happens, I won't give you up, absolutely not!"
"Rosa... If one day, I'm penniless, will you... still like me?"
For a moment, she finally understood his abnormal behavior and strange words.
It turned out that she didn't know what kind of burden he was bearing!
She bit her lip so hard till it was bleeding, yet she was numb to the pain.
That man...
"That's right, it was all his fault!" she thought.
For a moment, Rosa was furious. She took out her phone and dialed the number she hated. Soon, the call went through.
"Henry, could you not be so shameless?" Rosa scolded as soon as he answered the phone.
"Ha, what's wrong? You're angry?" The voice was pleasant and magnetic as usual.
Rosa's hand, which was holding the phone, trembled with anger. "Do you think that I will compromise? You are too despicable!" "There are only four days left. I'd like to see what decision he will make!" The man chuckled from the other side of the phone.
"Henry, I'm telling you, even if I break up with him, I won't be with you. Never!" she yelled.
"Oh? Really... Well then, let's make a bet!"
The voice on the other end of the phone was full of temptation. "If he doesn't send you to my bed within four days, then I will let you go and never harass you again!"
"Ha!" Rosa burst into laughter. Holding her phone, she spoke in a crazed manner. "In your dreams, Andy won't do this to me! You pervert, you madman!" As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately hung up the phone furiously.
"Wow, your little wild kitten hasn't been tamed yet. Did the knight in shining armour tactic not work last time?" Neil raised the cigarette and wine in his hand and swirled it with a chuckle.
He suddenly became interested in this little wild kitten.
"There's a woman that Henry can't tame? How interesting!" he thought.

The corners of Henry's lips curled slightly. But before he finished smiling, his smile had already faded away. "Do you think there's something that I can't do?"
"Henry, four days. The fourth day seems to be Saturday. Aren't you getting engaged that day?" Leonardo asked.
Mr. White was stunned and said, "Oh yeah, that's right, you're getting engaged in four days. What are you doing? How can you still be in the mood to mess with your little wild kitten at this time?"
"Knock knock knock" At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in." Mr. White said hurriedly.
The door opened and revealed Denny who was standing on the other side.
He quickly walked to Henry's side and said, "Mr. Lewis, tomorrow's press conference has been arranged. Miss Baker just called to ask you out for supper..."
"Oh my, is this fiancée spying on us?" Mr. White joked.
"Tell her that I'm busy!" The man didn't even look up.
"Okay!" Denny said and went out.
Leonardo quickly sat aside and said, "Isn't it not nice for you to do this? The entire Baker Enterprise is watching you now. You should at least put on a show. Otherwise, it wouldn't be easy for you to take it over!"
Henry slightly raised his eyebrows. He looked somewhat dismissive as he said faintly, "The harder they keep an eye on me, the more reason for me to take it slowly. Baker Enterprise wants to use his influence to suppress me. Ha, it wouldn't be so easy!"
"That's right. Leonardo, You don't have to worry about him. It's already nice that he's not taking advantage of others. It wouldn't be easy for other people to take advantage of him!" Mr. White knew him very well "Alright, come on, let's play a game. I'm feeling my luck these two days!" Leonardo was eager to test his luck.
"Fine, fine, fine. I'm also lucky. Come on, let's get drunk." Mr. White, who liked to play, was naturally eager to participate.
The next day...
When Rosa went downstairs and saw Andy's car parked there as usual.
He opened the car door, feeling a little tired. He stepped forward and chuckled. "Sorry, I just arrived!"
"It's okay. I just came downstairs as well." Rosa lowered her head and replied in a low voice.
"Come on, get in!"
"Okay!"
On the road, Rosa was oddly silent.
Andy kept looking sideways.
Finally, he parked the car by the road.
"Um..." The sudden stop made Rosa, who was absent-minded, come back to her senses.
She quickly looked around. This was not the school. "Where is this place?"
Andy stopped the car, looked at her, and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you look so pale? Why were you silent the entire morning?"
Rosa was stunned and looked at him. She did not look well.
Her hands were clasped together uneasily.
"What's wrong?" Andy hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "Tell me, what happened?" Then he suddenly remembered something and held her hand anxiously. "Did that man bother you again, did he?"
"Er... it hurts..." Rosa suddenly frowned.
Andy was stunned and quickly let go of her hand.
The back of her hand turned red in an instant.
"I'm, I'm sorry." Andy hurriedly grabbed her hand and blew on it.
"It's okay... He didn't bother me, Andy..." She slowly pulled her hand back.
Andy watched as she retracted her hand and frowned. He felt a little disappointed.
She lowered her head and grabbed the schoolbag on her legs tightly.
After a moment of silence, she looked up at him and said, "Mr. Wright, let's break up!"
Andy was stunned.
"What did you say?"
"I said, let's break up!" Her hand trembled slightly, trying her best to control her emotions.
She thought about it all night last night.
She liked Mr. Wright.
She liked how gentle he was.
His elegance...
And his knowledgeable humor...
What she liked even more was the time they first met under that tree in school.
However, as Mrs. Wright had said, she couldn't be so selfish.
If they were really together, that man would definitely keep his word.
Even if Wright family had gone bankrupt. his parents still would not accept them together.
At that time, he would be the one stuck in a dilemma!
"Why are you breaking up with me?" Andy roared as he grabbed her wrist tightly.
"We, we are not suitable..."
"How are we not?" Andy frowned. "Did you fall for that person?"
Rosa was stunned. She naturally knew who he was talking about.
She bit her lips and forced herself to calm down. Then, she looked up and smiled. "Yes, I like him. He is rich and powerful, isn't he?!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
