Chapter 268

“By the way, I wonder what your relationship with Jonathan is. Would you mind telling us and satisfy our curiosity?” Jasmine asked.

Rosalie wore a faint smile as she responded, “That’s a personal matter. I don’t think it is appropriate to talk about it.”

As soon as she said this, the three women’s expressions changed. Chelsea, the daughter of the convenience store chain chairman, immediately responded, “What you just said is quite unpleasant. Is there something scandalous among us that you dare not speak of?”

Meanwhile, Lucy, the granddaughter of the hotel owner, scrutinized Rosalie’s face, furrowing her brows in contemplation.

Chelsea pressed further, “Could it be that you used improper means to get involved with Jonathan?”

Rosalie pursed her lips slightly and said, “I’m sorry, but I believe I have something to attend to. I’ll excuse myself for now.” With that, she attempted to leave.
