Chapter 428
She wanted to forget him. Would she forget him?
Even though her voice was so calm, underneath this calmness was such obvious determination!
Bang!
Suddenly, he raised his hand and punched the car heavily!
“Mr. Youngblood!” the driver on the side shouted in surprise. At this moment, the handsome face of this tall figure was filled with twisted anger.
Rosalie returned to her residence and lay exhausted on the bed.
She was so tired as if she had fought a tough battle.
However, she had already made it clear. Jonathan would most probably not show up in front of her again.
After all, he was such a proud man.
“Rosie…” She did not expect that he would call her Rosie again today. This reminded her of the life she used to take him back to that small rental home.
Although life was difficult at that time, it was very warm.
At that time, she really felt like she had a family.
However… In the end, she still had no family.
“Jon, I can forget about you,” Rosalie muttered to herself, telling herself that there was only Jonathan in this world!
A man who was extremely noble in Strico but had nothing to do with her.
She did not sleep all night.
The next day, Rosalie went to the office with two dark circles under her eyes. When she arrived at the office, she saw that her table was full of yellow roses.
Rosalie felt dizzy. At a glance, she saw that there were hundreds of yellow roses covering the entire table.
As soon as other colleagues saw her arriving, they immediately came over with an ambiguous look and said, “Rosalie, there are so many yellow roses. Who gave them to you?”
“Are you really Jonathan’s girlfriend? I think these yellow roses will cost at least a few thousand dollars.”
“Hey, didn’t Rosalie say she’s not Jonathan’s girlfriend?”
“Then it must be some rich man who’s pursuing her. Wow, that’s so enviable.”
Rosalie saw a card in the roses.
She opened the card and saw a sentence written inside: [Ms. Leighton, please accept my apology. If you want any compensation, please feel free to ask for it.] The signature was Kayden.
Rosalie was stunned for a moment, but then she understood what was going on.
It was probably Fiona who told him about their relationship as cousins that day. Fiona was now often around Calvin, and Kayden wanted to be friends with Calvin. It was not unexpected that Kayden was afraid of offending Fiona.
So he quickly came to apologize to her.
However, Kayden did not know that she and Fiona were not even close.
Fiona used to dislike her a lot. Now that Fiona had taken over her childhood identity, she must have disliked her even more.
Rosalie went to the front desk and asked the receptionist to deal with the roses.
The receptionist divided the roses into bunches and distributed them to everyone in the company. Everyone was smiling happily since the roses were free. However, Elodia’s face darkened as if someone owed her hundreds of thousands of dollars.
“Did Rosalie and Jonathan really not break up? So last time at Night Sky, someone paid the bill, and now someone sent her flowers? But if they hadn’t broken up, how could Rosalie dress so badly? Even the bag she carries to work is an old model from several years agol And it obviously looks old!”
Thinking of this, Elodia’s eyes flashed, and she came up with another plan.
Not long after, Rosalie was called into Lawrence’s office.
“Do you have a boyfriend?” Lawrence asked straightforwardly. After all, when he was looking for an assistant, he made it clear from the beginning that women with boyfriends or who were married would not be considered.
“No,” Rosalie replied.
“Then those roses today…”
“It’s Kayden,” Rosalie said. “I went to see him for signature that day. He was delayed because of something. I waited a long time. He probably wanted to express his apology, so he sent those roses.”
This answer was somewhat beyond Lawrence’s expectations. But since Rosalie mentioned Kayden’s name, Lawrence knew Rosalie was not lying. So Lawrence did not ask further and handed her a document.
“This is a traffic accident case. Go to the parties involved and investigate the relevant evidence and the testimonies of all parties,” said Lawrence.
Rosalie opened the file and skimmed through it. It was a case of a car hitting someone. The victim who was hit was still in a coma in the hospital, but the party responsible for the hit was not willing to compensate. Hence, he had been delaying on the grounds of lack of money. The victim’s family was now preparing to sue the perpetrator.
Since Lawrence took over the case, he had to figure out the whole story, and collecting relevant information was exactly what an assistant like her should do.
Rosalie responded briefly and walked out of the office.
As soon as Rosalie came out of the room, she saw Elodia staring at her. However, Rosalie did not bother to pay attention to
her.
When Elodia saw Rosalie coming out with the document in her hand and looking through it after returning to her seat, she was disappointed.
She deliberately mentioned to Lawrence that Rosalie received a lot of roses today and brought out the topic of her boyfriend.
However, she did not expect Rosalie to pass the test safely. “Did she tell Mr. Guzman that she has no boyfriend, and Mr. Guzman believed it?”
“Is Rosalie still with Jonathan now?” Elodia was so troubled by this question that her head was about to explode.
Rosalie went to the hospital in the afternoon and met the family of the victim. The client was the victim’s parents.
To Rosalie’s surprise, she saw Lucas in the hospital.
It turned out that the victim was an employee of Lucas’ automotive workshop. The victim had been in a coma for more than
a month.
Rosalie learned from the victim’s parents that Lucas would often come to the hospital to visit the victim.
After collecting the relevant information, Rósalie and Lucas left the hospital together.
“I didn’t expect you to be the lawyer for Larry,” Lucas said.
“I’m not really a lawyer. I’m just a legal assistant now.” Although she had a lawyer’s license, her current position was only to assist the lawyer.
“Sooner or later, you will be a lawyer!” Lucas said, “I’ve heard the news. I know your case has been overturned. You were wrongly accused back then. Congratulations on being vindicated.”
“Thank you,” Rosalie said.
“Larry is a poor young man, but now he’s lying in the hospital. If it weren’t for the astonishing medical bills and the other party not willing to compensate him, his parents might not be forced to find a lawyer.” Lucas sighed. “If you have any doubts about the case, you can also come to me.”
