Chapter 527 Planning To Divorce

Clover continued his relentless monologue, barely pausing for breath. Rose was a bit overwhelmed, and even Emily, who had just caught up, couldn't help but chuckle. The two women exchanged amused glances, their smiles mirroring each other. Noticing their mirth, Clover frowned and delivered another light tap on Rose's forehead. "What's so funny? I'm giving you advice, and you're not even taking it seriously!"

"I'm listening!" Rose protested, rubbing the sore spot on her forehead.

However, Clover remained unconvinced. "I don't think you're actually paying attention."

Rose contemplated Clover's words, understanding his genuine concern for her well-being. Still, something nagged at her. "Harriette..." she muttered.

He refused to believe that Harriette's sudden reappearance was solely due to Oliver's passing.

"In any case, just keep your distance from her," Clover reiterated firmly.

Knowing she couldn't win this argument, Rose quickly nodded. "Alright, alright. I'll keep my distance."

"Okay, Clo!" Rose replied sweetly.

Linking her arm with Rose's, Emily couldn't resist teasing them. "Tsk, someone's turned into a real control freak now that he's a big brother. Looks like you've lost your freedom, Rosie!"

However, after everything that had transpired, even if Anastasia hadn't fled, she doubted the woman would have willingly given her any information. It seemed she would have to find another opportunity.
