Chapter 144

Rosalie and Sebastian changed out of the uniform, and headed back on the helicopter.

Rosalie was still in a daze, as if she had her soul sucked out of her. She didn't say where she wanted to go, and only realized that Sebastian was taking her to a villa that she had never seen before when the helicopter finally landed.

"Come on down," Sebastian said as he carefully helped Rosalie down the helicopter, afraid that she might fall.

Rosalie looked around her. "Where are we?"

"I saw how miserable you looked. Since you didn't say anything, I decided to bring you to my place. Don't worry, only my servants and I are around. There's no one else."

"Sebastian, I'm really sorry for causing you so much trouble."

Rosalie felt soulless throughout the entire journey, her mind a complete blank.

"It's not trouble at all. Let's head in and get some rest first. Once we feel up to it, I'll send you home."

Rosalie went into a daze again as her eyes went out of focus. She didn't even respond to him. Sebastian didn't say anything further, and instead led her into the villa.
