“I have to drive later, so no wine for me, Calvin replied.

Rosalie’s expression suddenly darkened. Memories of the car crash and her unjust sentence for drunk driving, despite her being sober, echoed in her mind.

“Back then, your accident was also due to drunk driving, wasn’t it?” His voice abruptly broke the silence. “Is that why you found a job at the Environment and Sanitation Administration as a cleaner?”

“At least I still have work to do,” Rosalie answered with a touch of self-mockery.

“Would you like me to talk to the Environment and Sanitation Administration and get you a less strenuous position there?” Calvin offered.

“No need,” Rosalie declined. After all, it was a heavy burden to accept favors from someone like the scion Calvin.

Calvin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. It was the first time his offer of help had been turned down. Were it not for her bearing a resemblance to someone from his memories, he wouldn’t have ventured to help her get another position.
