Chapter 59

“Are you going there?” Jonathan asked.

Rosalie nodded. “Well, it’s just that you…” She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Do you want to come with me?”

Jonathan pondered for a while and said, “I have to work overtime on New Year’s Eve. The boss said that I would get three times my salary. Well, Rosie, why don’t you leave me the address? I’ll go to meet you on the first day of the new year.”

“Okay,” Rosalie said, but then she bit her lip slightly and hesitated. “But when you go there with me, some relatives might react badly. Please don’t take it personally.”

Jonathan smiled softly. “Don’t worry. I won’t care.”

Rosalie was the only one he cared about now.

The closer it was to the new year, the fewer people on the road. Many outsiders went back to their hometowns.

Rosalie’s mother’s hometown was a small town near Strico, which was not far away. It would take about an hour and a half to get there by car, so the tickets were relatively easy to grab.

Rosalie said to Jonathan when booking the ticket, “Jon, do you have an ID card? I’ll book you a ticket.”

Speaking of which, she had not even seen his ID card.

“I’ve booked the ticket,” Jonathan said.

Hearing this, Rosalie did not say anything more. Instead, she took out the scarf she had knitted the past days and gave it to Jonathan.

“Is it a little short?” Rosalie looked at the scarf and said.

“No, it suits me just fine,” Jonathan said. The scarf seemed to have Rosalie’s breath, which made him feel like he was surrounded by her. “Then I’ll wrap the scarf up later so that you can wear it during the new year. It will take some time to get the gloves done before the new year,” Rosalie said.
