Chapter 198

Jonathan knew Rosalie had always disliked darkness. Even when she was sleeping, she liked to sleep with the light on.

In the past, although she could turn off the lights and go to bed for a period when she stayed in the rental home, it seemed that later on, she reverted to the habit of sleeping with the lights on.

He frowned slightly and thought, “Could it be that she’s not in the room?”

But just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard a muffled weeping sound. He exclaimed inwardly, “She’s here!” His steps abruptly halted, and he fumbled for the wall, turning on the light. Suddenly, the room was bathed in brightness.

He only saw a slender figure hiding in one corner of the room at that moment. She curled up and leaned her back against the wall, with her face buried in between her knees. Her shoulders twitched while she was sobbing depressively.

“Is she crying?” He thought as his black eyes suddenly narrowed. He walked forward quickly and squatted down, then looked at her. “What’s wrong? What happened?”

His voice caused her body to stiffen suddenly. Then, she moved her head slightly and slowly raised her head. With her eyes filled with mist, she looked at him.

Her eyes were red and swollen. Obviously, she had been crying for a while. Her face was stained with tears. The fragile and painful expression made his heart suddenly twitch and burst into pain.

He rarely saw her cry, but every time he saw her tears, he felt a sense of helplessness.

“Tell me, what happened?” It took him a while to get back his voice.

She sniffed and choked, “I-I couldn’t find where my mom is. I can’t find her… I just can’t…”

When she said that, her tears fell even more uncontrollably.
