Chapter 1817

Morrison swiftly straightened his gaze, feigning ignorance of her presence.

Rose pursed her lips and went back to her phone. Winston was the one texting her. He had seen Morrison being taken away in an ambulance from the villa and specifically inquired about the situation.

Upon learning that Morrison had fallen down the stairs trying to save her, Winston sent her a text replete with laughing emojis.

Rose-[What’s so funny?]

Winston-[I told you Morrison is a fool. Only a fool would resort to such childish antics Jc2

Rose–I have no idea what you’re talking about.]

Winston-[Never mind. His foolishness isn’t my concern. But what are you going to do now?]

Rose-[Do about what?]

Winston-[He didn’t manage to blackmail you, did he? After all, he fell down the stairs trying to save you.]

Rose paused for a moment before slowly typing-[That doesn’t change the fact that we’re getting a divorce.]

Winston stared at the screen for a while, then chuckled softly “This is really over..

Once Rose made up her mind after enduring so much, there was no turning back.

Winston-[Are you sure about this?]

It was a while before he received a reply-[Yes]

Winston raised an eyebrow but didn’t text back instead, he dialed Chloe’s number.

Chloe stayed at home every day. It was very cold, and she felt quite bored, so Damon stayed at home with her every day. Specifically, she kept Damon company while he worked

She sat on the sofa with headphones on, watching a movie on the projector. When she heard the phone ring, she immediately pressed the answer button on the headphones.

*Yeah?”

“Sorry, but I’ve screwed up.”

Chloe’s brow furrowed as she sat up straight, “What did you do?”

Winston touched his nose. “I may have overacted a bit, and now Rose wants a divorce from Morrison.”

“A divorce?” Chloe ‘s concern deepened. “How is Rose doing?”

Nothing mattered more than Rose

“She seems fine, but Morrison. Winston couldn’t hide his schadenfreude, “doesn’t seem so good”

Chloe arched an eyebrow, “How so?”

“Well, first he spiked my food out of jealousy, which landed him in the hospital with acute gastroenteritis, and now he’s taken a tumble down the stairs trying to protect Rose

Winston inevitably detailed the course of events a bit. Chloe listened quietly, and after a long period of silence, she nodded. “If it’s Rose’s decision, then so be it. She wouldn’t have decided this without thorough consideration.”

“It seems Morrison really did a number on her, wearing her down to this point.”

Winston cracked a wry smile. “So we’re just going to let it be?”

“What else can we do? Chloe twirled her headphone cord, “I don’t think you did anything wrong. Either Morrison comes to terms with his feelings. or he completely exhausts Rose’s, and clearly, he’s been foolish enough.”

Chloe’s expression grew cold, and she glanced at the man who had put down his pen to look at her, offering a small smile. “Let’s leave it at that Since you’re in R City, take good care of Rose for me She’s pregnant and these events are bound to affect her mood. Keep an eye on hei
