Chapter 22 Secret Crush

As Rose left Astra Law Firm, her mind was in turmoil. She could not stay calm at all.

Louie said that Celeste had left a secret will. The will would only be revealed after Rose inherited Celeste Jewels.

Through her will, Celeste had arranged everything beforehand. It was as if she knew that something would happen to Rose.

The secret will gave Rose even more reason to suspect the accident. She knew there had to be more to it.

While Rose was deep in her thoughts, her phone rang with a call from her best friend, Yvonne.

As soon as the call connected, Yvonne asked concernedly, "Rose, are your okay? I'm so sorry. The dance troupe has been having rehearsals the past few days, so my phone got confiscated.

"I just heard about what happened to you. How could Maya do this? She keeps spreading the gossip everywhere! If I'd been there, I would've sewn her mouth shut!"

The alumni group was buzzing over the news. Everyone now knew that Rose had a one-night stand with a stranger and had been driven out of the Shaffer residence.

Yvonne refused to believe that Rose would just sleep with a random stranger. She believed there had to be more to the story.

When Rose did not answer, Yvonne became even more anxious.

"Rose, are you... alright? Rose, please be okay. I'll ask for a leave of absence from the dance troupe and return to Aquastead. Let me be there for you."

Rose was touched. It had been a while since she last received such kindness.
