Rose asked for leave and rushed to the hospital. It was already twilight.
Lillian was the only one in Jenifer’s ward.
Rose approached Lillian and questioned her, “Ms. Stewart, what did you do to Jenifer?”
“What did I do?” Lillian smiled strangely.
“Rose, how could you ask me? I kindly told you about my relationship with Judson, but you revealed it to the media. How can you do that to me? You should do some good deeds for Jenifer’s sake.”
Lillian wanted to show off in front of Rose, but she didn’t expect Rose to tell the media.
Lillian was humiliated in front of Judson.
Now, Lillian had to deny their love affair and dispel rumors about that recording.
She did it to make a good impression on Judson.
Lillian knew that her plan of revealing their relationship failed…
Lillian hated Rose’s guts. She humiliated Rose with the most vicious words in the world.
However, Rose managed to restrain her anger.
Lillian liked Judson, so she was jealous of Rose. Over the years, Lillian had done many disgusting things.
Rose focused on her question. “Where is Jenifer?”
“Where is Jenifer?” Lillian smiled again in a strange way. She leaned towards the window with her head stretched out. Then Lillian looked downstairs with strong implication.
“Jenifer heard that her doctor left the country and no one could cure her. She also heard you broke up with Judson. She knew you no longer had money to pay her treatment fee, and she was so sad…”
Rose’s mind went blank, and she ran to the window subconsciously.
It was dark outside.
There was a green lawn downstairs, which could be seen clearly under the street lamps. No one was there.
Rose realized that she had been taken in by Lillian.
Lillian knew suicide would lead to Rose’s trauma stress.
Lillian had been giving Rose psychological hints intentionally since she called Rose over.
She approached Rose from behind.
Lillian grabbed Rose’s shoulder and pushed her downstairs!
“Rose, go to hell!” Lillian looked ferocious. “Why didn’t you die with your mother?”
However, Rose was prepared.
Rose turned one side of her shoulder and twisted Lillian’s arm with one hand. She pushed Rose and reversed their positions in an instant.
Rose grabbed Lillian’s neck and pressed her upper body out of the window.
“You want me to die?” She clung to Lillian, who was struggling in panic. Rose would not let Lillian escape.
Rose looked calm, as if she never misunderstood that Jenifer had jumped off the building. “You want to become Judson’s wife so desperately?”
Lillian was scared to tears. “Rose, Rose, I’m just joking with you. Can you let me go? I’m a little afraid of heights…”
“Are you?” Rose smiled mockingly. “You pushed me so hard. I thought you enjoyed it.”
Lillian never expected that Rose would see through her trick.
Lillian pretended to cry, “Rose, I was wrong, I was really wrong… I didn’t want to take Judson away from you, will you let me go? Don’t be angry, I will never talk to Judson again…”
Rose was trying to scare Lillian again. Suddenly, Someone grabbed her from behind.
She was dragged back by someone.
She was dragged so hard that she stepped back and fell to the ground. Her body hit the hospital bed.
Rose looked up. Judson had helped Lillian stand up.
He was very rude when dragging Rose, but now he was careful, gentle, and considerate in front of Lillian. “Lillian, are you injured?”
Lillian jumped into Judson’s arms, shook with fear, and cried out loud, “Judson, I am so scared, I thought I would die…”
Judson let Lillian hide behind him and looked coldly at Rose. Rose was sitting on the ground in a mess. Judson’s face darkened.
“How dare you?”
Judson wondered, “If I didn’t come in time, would you kill Lillian?”
Lillian shrunk and grabbed Judson’s arm. “Judson, don’t blame Rose. It’s my fault. I invited experts to treat Jenifer, but I didn’t inform Rose. Rose misunderstood that I hurt Jenifer, so…”
Lillian cried very sadly. “These experts were very busy. It was very hard to invite them… I’m sorry, I should have told you…”
Rose’s eyes met Judson’s icy gaze.
Rose ignored the pain in her heart. She rubbed her painful arm and took out her mobile phone. “Ms. Stewart, I have a recording of our conversation from beginning to end. Say it again.”
Lillian’s face changed. She stopped crying.
Before Lillian thought of a strategy, Judson interrupted coldly, “Enough!”
He shook off Lillian’s hand, stepped forward, and lifted Rose from the ground. Then he grabbed Rose’s mobile phone and threw it to the ground.
“I saw you pushed Lillian. You still try to deny it. Even though Lillian cursed your parents, you shouldn’t try to kill her.”
Judson’s words stabbed Rose’s heart.
Her parents…
How dare Judson mention her parents?
Her mother jumped down from a building to save Judson’s life. Her father was fearless of death threats for the Roach family.
***
“The Roach family will be your home, and my parents are your parents, remember?”
Judson took Rose’s hand and pressed her index finger on the fingerprint lock of the gate.
“Answer me, do you remember?”
Rose looked up at Judson with attachment and worship in her eyes. She answered contentedly in a low voice, “I Remember.”
“Then who am I?” Judson looked at her.
“You are my brother!”
She hugged him.
Judson looked thin, but she couldn’t cover his waist with her arms.
“Why do you hug me so tight?” Judson pushed her away. Before she felt disappointed, Judson held her wrist again. “Come with me.”
The door of the Roach family opened slowly.
Gorgeous gardens and buildings unfolded before Rose.
But Rose could only see Judson’s back. He held her hand and took her along…
*:
Rose cried for the first time since she broke up with Judson. “Judson, don’t mention them.”
Tears ran down her cheeks, and her eyes were full of despair and
coldness.
She tried her best to control her emotions. “Don’t mention them.”
