Chapter 597
His eyes were like a warning to her not to say another word. Otherwise, he might flip out at once.
Fiona gritted her teeth, a troubled look spread across her face.
“Fiona, you should go back too. I have a caretaker here, so you don’t need to take care of me,” Calvin said.
However, Fiona was not willing to accept it. “I have nothing to do anyway. I’ll stay in the hospital.” In her opinion, that was the best time for her to prove her worth.
“That’s not necessary,” Calvin refused again.
Fiona felt he was putting her to shame with his repeated refusals, but she couldn’t lose her
“I’ll go back first, then.” After saying that, Fiona walked out of the ward.
Only Calvin and Rosalie were left in the
Ward.
temper.
“In fact, you really don’t have to say that to your mother. It is norinal for her not to like seeing me. I understand,” Rosalie
said.
Calvin stared at Rosalie and said, “If you can understand why my mother doesn’t like to see you, can you understand why I said those words, then?”
Rosalie was stifled. How could she not understand? It was just… “You and I are not…”
Before she could finish her words, he interrupted her, “If you want to refuse me, then you don’t have to say it. If you don’t think I am so annoying and contemptible to the extent that you will definitely not fall for me, please stop saying those words again, okay?”
Calvin spoke in a low voice. The high and mighty scion of the entertainment industry was pleading with her in such a subservient manner.
Rosalie felt a lump in her throat. Calvin was still wrapped with gauze on his body and head at the moment. He sustained all those injuries for the sake of saving her.
“I’ll peel an apple for you.” She changed the topic and took out a red apple from the fruit basket she brought.
“Okay.” He smiled.
She took a small fruit knife from the coffee table and began to peel the apple for him carefully.
Because her fingers had been injured, she looked a little clumsy when she peeled the apple, but in Calvin’s opinion, she was so beautiful.
She sat quietly beside the bed, looking down and peeling the apple skin bit by bit. The sunlight shone on her through the glass window of the ward, creating a serene and blissful scene.
He wished he could take a picture of that scene and frame it, etching that image into his mind permanently.
“Here you go,” she said while handing him the apple. Suddenly, she became lost in her thoughts.
In the past, she had peeled apples for another man, who smiled happily while eating the apples she peeled.
“What’s wrong?” Calvin’s smile faltered because of Rosalie’s dazed demeanor.
“It’s nothing,” she hurriedly said. “Hurry up and eat.”
Then, she put the peeled apple in his hand.
He took the apple, but he didn’t eat it immediately. Instead, he looked at her. The expression in her eyes just now was sad. It was as if she was reminiscing about others while looking at him.
He wondered, “When she looked at me, who did she think of?”
The doubt flashed across his mind, and then an answer vaguely surfaced.
“Did you just think of Jonathan?” Calvin asked. In fact, he could’ve not asked, but his pride prompted him to blurt out the question.
Rosalie held her breath and fell silent.
However, her silence made him understand that he was right.
“Even if Jonathan still holds a place in your heart, I’ll wait. One day, you’ll let go of him and fall in love with me,” Calvin
murmured.
“That’s not true. I have no feelings for him anymore,” Rosalie denied.
“That’s great if that’s the case,” Calvin murmured. “In this case, maybe I can wait for a shorter time. Rosalie, you don’t hate me, do you?”
Rosalie pursed her lips and thought, “Hate? Why would I hate Cal?”
At that moment, Calvin’s phone suddenly rang. After he picked up the phone and listened for a while, his face changed slightly. Then, he said in a deep voice, “Okay, I got it!”
After finishing the call, Calvin/said seriously to Rosalie, “The mastermind of the car accident has been found out.”
“What?” Rosalie was surprised. “So fast?”
“However, it was not my men who found out. It was Callum. He figured it out faster than me. The mastermind has been arrested by the police and is undergoing further interrogation.”
“Who is the mastermind?” Rosalie asked.
“Josephine Tall. She’s the marriage partner prepared by the White family for Callum,” Calvin said. “Josephine must’ve been trying to hurt Lillian, but you happened to be in the same car as her.”
Rosalie had a little impression of the name because she heard Lillian mention it. Lillian said that Josephine deliberately approached and warned her, wanting to force her to leave Callum.
Rosalie thought, “Is a person’s life so insignificant to these people? They plan to eliminate the people they dislike so easily by orchestrating an accident.”
Rosalie’s body shuddered. Fear and anger churned within her.
“Do you know which police station Josephine was taken to now?” she asked.
Calvin told her the address of the police station. Rosalie got up and said, “I’m going to the police station now. Have a good rest. I will come to see you next time.”
However, as soon as she turned around, and before she could take a step, Calvin grabbed her hand and asked, “Next time? When will that be?” he asked with his jaw-slightly raised.
“Tomorrow. I’ll come to see you after work,” she said after she thought for a while.
“Okay. I’ll wait for you tomorrow!” Calvin smiled and looked at her gently, dispelling his usual indifference.
When Rosalie went to the police station, she called Lillian and learned that she and Callum were already there.
When Rosalie arrived at the police station, Josephine had recorded her statement.
According to the clues provided by Callum, the police arrested three people who had received money from Josephine and did her bidding.
The three of them quickly confessed, so Josephine swiftly broke down and confessed her crime.
In Josephine’s opinion, since Lillian didn’t heed her warning last time, eliminating Lillian was the most effective solution she could think of. As long as she got rid of Lillian, she could naturally marry Callum and become Mrs. White.
