Chapter 442:

Had Rosie not complained about her to them? Or had she simply failed to sway them?

Across the room, Brenna watched Rosie put on an act, looking well-behaved in front of Shepard and Giselle.

Despite her injury, Rosie wheeled herself over to them and hand-fed them fruit with dramatic affection.
