Chapter 7 Chapter 9 No Pretending(2)
Judson's logic was something Rose didn't quite understand. Smack! A sapphire blue jewelry box was thrown in front of Rose again. Rose stood still for a full five seconds before reaching out to take the box in the eerie silence. When Rose saw the logo on the box, her hand paused momentarily in mid-air. Truelove... This was a jewelry box from Truelove. Rose's heart pounded as she opened the box. What appeared before her eyes was a delicate dragonfly brooch adorned with colorful gems. It sparkled brightly. "Keep it." Judson sneered coldly, "Don't lose it and make a sceneIt will be embarrassing." Rose picked up the wings of the dragonfly and then let it go, causing the brooch to fall back into the box. She smiled bitterly... To be honest, Rose thought she had been calm since she left Imperial Garden yesterday until now. But now, she wanted to laugh. Dragonflies and butterflies were both insects with wings. Both were brooches adorned with large-carat gemstones
If they were not marked up, then their prices should be close.
So, in Judson's eyes, both brooches were the same.
He meticulously chose a diamond ring for Lillian and then casually threw a dragonfly brooch to Rose as if he were dismissing a beggar.
Judson believed that this could make up for everything Rose had lost and that this brooch was enough to shut Rose up and relieve Lillian from bearing the burden of theft.
Humiliating others was what Judson excelled at.
A smile curved on the corner of Rose's lips, enough to outshine everything else. "Thank you, MrRoach."
It seemed like it had been a long time since Judson saw Rose smile so brightly, so Judson was momentarily taken aback.
Suddenly, he stepped forward and lifted Rose from the bed.
"MrRoach!" Rose's hands pressed against Judson's chest, showing her refusal.
Judson gripped Rose's waist with one hand and held her chin with the other, forcing her to look up.
"330 thousand dollars and a diamond brooch are enough to buy you for a night, right?"
Rose bit her lip lightly.
So, there were 330 thousand dollars on her bank card...
In Judson's eyes, Rose was a commodity that could be exchanged for money.
But in an instant, Rose looked up with a smile. "There are reporters downstairs now, aiming their cameras at the fifteenth floor
If they capture something..."
Judson never acknowledged Rose, refusing to make their relationship publicIf he knew there were so many reporters downstairs, he would surely think that she called them over to force him.
Even though they had broken up, Judson's thoughts about Rose were always the most unpleasant.
Sure enough, flames of anger and disdain rose in Judson's eyesHe tightened his grip, and his eyes were chilling.
"No pretending anymore?"
Rose had disguised her gentleness and patience for so long, but was she finally going to reveal her true self?
Rose lifted her head. "Yeah, even if I keep pretending, I can't become MrsRoachSo why bother?"
Judson pushed Rose away, throwing her aside heavily.
"Rose!"
Judson wished he could kill Rose!
