Chapter 174

Rosalie took the boxed meal and quickly dug in with her head lowered. At that moment, she only wanted to finish the meal and leave as soon as possible.

“Rosie, you’re eating so fast. Are you so eager to leave?” Jonathan’s voice sounded in the office.

Rosalie was choked and coughed, almost spat out the food in her mouth. She could only cover her mouth with her hand and struggled with the cough. Her face turned red a moment later.

in it clean.

His words seemed to imply something, and his eyes were filled
