Chapter 431

"It's me," Daniel said.

Rosie froze, realizing she had blocked his number to avoid him. He must have gotten a new one.

Calling at this time meant he had received the agreement. Wasting no time, she said, "You received the papers and went through them?"

"Yeah..." Daniel sounded a bit muffled.

"Sign them and bring them with you. Then set a time to finalize it at the

courthouse," Rosie said calmly.

"Rosie," Daniel called.

"Yes?" She sounded puzzled.

"Let's meet," he suggested.

"Why?" Rosie was confused. "Is there something wrong with it?"

"Yes..." Daniel said.

"Huh?" She was even more shocked. "What's wrong? I didn't ask for anything..."

"It's hard to explain over the phone. Let's talk in person." Daniel cut her off, then laughed bitterly. "Are you afraid I'll hurt you?"

Rosie fell silent-she couldn't deny that the thought had crossed her mind.

"Let's meet somewhere public," Daniel suggested. "A crowded place where you can run or call for help anytime."

She hesitated for a while before finally agreeing. "Fine, I'll choose the location." "Sure," Daniel said.

Hanging up, Rosie frowned slightly. Daniel felt unfamiliar today—unusually calm. He reminded her of the Daniel she first met: humble, gentle, and steady. Pushing the thought aside, she made her way back to Sunshine Neighborhood.

After a shower, she saw a text from Daniel. They discussed and settled on a time and place to meet.
