Chapter 281
A Rolls-Royce was leading a grandiose convoy of floats, moving from the flower market to the Shangri-L a Hotel in the city center.
At this time, Baby Zetty had tired herself out from crying and was now asleep in her mother's arms. From time to time, she mumbled in her sleep, "I don't want Daddy. Daddy's a bad person."
Rose's eyes were red, and her heart felt as if it had been cut with a knife.
There was a knock on the door of the hotel all of a sudden. Josephine looked toward her desolate- looking sister-in-law and took the initiative to get up and open the door.
"Sister-in-law, come quick."
Hearing Josephine’s exclamation, Rose put Baby Zetty on the bed and walked out.
Outside the door was a sea of bright red roses.
The ground was covered with a thick layer of petals and there were white floats on both sides of the road. Inside the floats were heart-shaped roses.
After counting them, there were 11 floats.
Josephine stared at the sight in surprise. "How many roses do you even need?"
Rose looked at Josephine and said with a smile," Which dandy kid did you catch the attention of this time?"
Josephine looked smitten. "How romantic. If it really were up to me, I'd marry him."
As soon as her words fell, Jay stepped out from the stairwell at the corner, full of spirit.
Josephine hurriedly covered her mouth and swallowed her own words. "Pretend I said nothing," she said before running into the room.
Upon spotting Jay, there was a trace of confusion in Rose's dark, glazed pupils.
"Sir Ares, what are you doing?" Rose really did not understand the purpose of his arduous efforts.
Jay stood in front of her, both his hands in his trouser pockets. His lazy expression carried the nobility of a prince.
"Can't you tell? I'm courting you."
Rose had a headache and rubbed her forehead. "Sir Ares, roses wither. I'm sorry, but I can't accept this passionate but short-lived love."
As Rose finished speaking, she turned around and entered the room. She then closed the door with a bang.
Jay's flower delivery plan had completely failed.
Grayson looked at Mr. Ares who had been rejected,
dumbfounded.
Rose was the only person in this world who dared to embarrass Mr. Ares.
He could guarantee that Rose would have a tragic end.
Jay glared at Grayson and Grayson walked over in fright.
"Didn't you say that when it comes to the womanizer John, he mostly got successes?" Jay’s expression was sullen.
Grayson wracked his brain. "The women that Sir John usually pursues are internet celebrities. Maybe those methods are not suitable for good women."
Jay thought for a bit, and a small smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Of course, how could his Angeline be the same as those vain, vulgar people?
"Get the door," Jay said coldly.
Grayson rang the doorbell.
No one responded.
Grayson's face was a little gray as he sneakily glanced at Mr. Ares. Mr. Ares did not have the intention of letting him stop, so Grayson had to continue ringing the doorbell.
The sound of the ringing doorbell was endless.
In the room.
Josephine propped her chin on one hand and looked a t Rose suspiciously.
"This brother of mine who's destined for single life actually gave flowers to a girl. This really is a once in a blue moon occurrence. Sister-in-law, could my brother have fallen in love with you?"
Rose smiled bitterly. "His attitude toward me is indeed not as bad as before, but I guess he's just taking care o f the child's reputation. He doesn't really like me." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Josephine's eyes were dim. She knew that her elder brother liked Angeline. That was a love that was so deeply heartbreaking.
Since childhood, the things her big brother liked had remained the same and he was always reluctant to throw away the things he used before. It was impossible for him to forget Angeline so quickly.
