Before Rose could walk out of the room, Judson took out his phone.
“Isidro, come upstairs and call the police. There is a thief,” he ordered.
Maria’s face changed.
Her legs went weak, and she knelt. “Mr. Roach, I didn’t…”
“Talk to the police.” Judson was not loud. But he shut Maria up. “You seem to have done this a lot.”
Isidro ran over. “Mr. Roach, the police will come soon…”
Judson said, “Investigate her and everyone here to see if things like this happened before. I need workers, not thieves.”
Maria was on the ground. ‘Isidro waved his hand, and a bodyguard pulled Maria away.
Judson turned around and looked at Rose, his tone cold. “Satisfied?”
Rose was surprised and almost laughed out.
She smiled, “You are dealing with your maid. It has nothing to do with me. As long as you feel happy, my feelings don’t matter.”
Isidro widened his eyes at once.
He couldn’t believe his ears.
Was she the obedient woman in front of Judson?
Judson frowned with impatience. “What’s wrong with you? Why are
you talking like this?”
He stepped forward to grab her.
Somehow, he felt that Rose was not just mad.
She was abnormal.
19
Even though he didn’t care much about her, he could tell that she was abnormal.
But he didn’t know why and was not patient enough.
Judson pulled her to himself, causing her shoulder to hit his chest. “Alright. It is late.”
Usually, she could understand him as long as he said that.
It was late…
She should know what he meant.
Although she was slow in many things, he was satisfied with their sex.
However, Rose shook off his hand and looked at him coldly. “You are not deaf and blind, right? Didn’t you hear Maria?”
When Maria mocked her, the water stopped running in the bathroom.
Judson must have known how Maria humiliated her.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have punished her so briefly.
Although he didn’t love Rose, he was not that bad. But Rose was not grateful.
She wouldn’t be grateful to him.
She deserved to be treated fairly.
In the past, Judson had done many unfair things to her. But she had never been mad at him.
Now, he just did a small thing for her. Why should she be grateful just for that?
“What do you want then?” Judson approached her with cold eyes. “Do you want to kill her for a necklace?”
Wasn’t it enough to call the police for an investigation?
How could she be so vicious?
“Rose, don’t push your luck!”
Rose looked at him as if she hadn’t known him. For the first time, she realized their difference in thinking.
There was a huge gap. But she dreamed of marrying him!
Rose felt it was ridiculous.
She opened her mouth. Finally, her stronger dignity surpassed her declining shame.
She chuckled, “Mr. Roach, I’m not your sex partner.”
They broke up.
He gave her the option.
Judson frowned heavily. “You can’t take it just because of a maid’s words? Aren’t you strong in mind? What? You suddenly want dignity after so many years?”
Rose looked at him.
Her eyes were complex.
How could she bear him?
He was rude. But she put up with him for 13 years!
She could not even deny that she used to be shameless.
He was right.
She had been shameless over these years.
After a long while, she smiled, “Well…said. Unfortunately, I just woke up.”
Judson looked at Rose seriously.
“Alright.” He softened up, which was rare. “I’ve punished Maria. No- one would gossip again.”
“Didn’t you punish her for stealing? Why is it about gossiping?” asked Rose.
“Enough!” Judson suddenly got mad. “Are you done? It’s not a big deal! Why can’t you let it go?”
He didn’t compromise to make her aggressive.
He wanted her to let it go.
He hated her greed, but Rose wouldn’t give up.
Actually, he was mad because Rose was out of control and didn’t accept his rare compromise.
Rose chuckled more ironically, “So it is not a big deal for you.”
She ignored his cold face. “Please don’t be mad about such a trifle. You can ignore these words, but I can’t. I am not that generous. I’m okay with that. You just need to leave me alone like before…”
Judson gnashed his teeth in anger because of her mocking words.
He pinched her wrist and lifted it, saying in a low voice, “Did she say anything wrong? Aren’t you just my sex…”
Suddenly, he paused because he noticed a man who should have been there.
“Why are you still here?” He looked at Isidro angrily.
Isidro shook.
“Mr. Roach…your mom is here. She also let Ms. Stewart and Darrin in. They are in the living room downstairs…”
Judson paused and got angrier. “Why didn’t you tell me before?”
Isidro felt wronged. “Mr. Roach didn’t allow me to do it. I only got the chance when you called me…”
Judson let go of Rose and walked downstairs fast. Halfway, he paused and turned around to look at Rose gloomily.
“Watch your mouth, OK?”
Then, they heard Tameka’s gentle voice.
“It’s wrong to hit others. Don’t worry. I will ask him to make an apology.”
Hearing the footsteps, Tameka looked back and snapped, “Look at what you did! How could you hit him?”
