After returning to the Youngblood residence, Jonathan asked Rosalie, “Are you disappointed today? We went to Sloummont but did not find any

Rosalie shook her head and replied, “No.”

“Are you not disappointed?” He seemed somewhat surprised.

“Because you’re willing to help me find clues and clear my name,” she said. “Whether you can help me to find useful clues or not, I’m just happy.”

It was as if she truly trusted him, and the barriers that had existed between them were slowly disappearing.
