"I'm the reason it didn't blow up; I helped bury the story," said Rosie, coming through the door and easing herself into the chair by the bed, her gaze gentle with worry. "How are you feeling now? Does it still hurt?" Tina gave a small shake of her head, though the pain in her eyes lingered. Rosie's kindness moved her, and tears slid down her cheeks. "The doctor already patchedup. I'm not in pain anymore. Rosie, you're the only one who is looking out for me." A sense of grievance burned in Tina's chest. “I still don't get it. Why did Judy attack me? I never provoked her, and I sure didn't seduce her boyfriend. I can see why she'd lash out at Isabella, but why me?" Rosie let out a tic sigh. "I had my team dig into Judy's background last night. Turns out, she's a piece of work-unstable, bossy, always jumping in where she thinks there's injustice. She has no patience for women who use underhanded means to seduce men. Most likely, she caught wind of what happened in Plomond and was in a foul mood that day, so she lashed out at you." "That woman is out of her mind!" Tina's voice shook with anger. "She picked the wrong person this time. Why should I get hit for no reason? Does she honestly believe the Russell family is an easy target?" Resentment festered as Tina remembered how she had already called her father and brother for support. Both had promised to get revenge for her. In her eyes, Judy hadn't just gone after her; she had crossed the entire Russell family. As the conversation continued, the sharp wail of a fire truck siren sounded from the street, but neither Rosie nor Tina thought much about it.
For a while longer, Rosie stayed to keep Tina company, and after an hour had passed, she finally left the room. With Isabella being treated at the shospital, Rosie decided to pay her a visit.
Upon entering Isabella's room, she found Ruby and Mack both there. Mack looked utterly defeated, while Isabella clung to Ruby as the two of them sobbed.
Rosie, feeling frustrated by the scene, set her fruit basket down and snapped, "Why are you crying again? Weren't the tears yesterday enough?" Latest chapters in glovel☐☐☐m Patience had never been her strong suit. She asked sharply, "What happened this time?" Every single thing Rosie had carefully set up in recent days had collapsed disastrously. Plans she'd spent hours perfecting had been ruined, forcing her to start all over again.
The sight of Ruby and Isabella sobbing bitterly only intensified her irritation. She shot them a pointed look and snapped, "You two need to pull yourselves together. Sitting here crying won't fix anything." Knowing Rosie well, Isabella felt a surge of dread at the thought of losing her support. Without Rosie, her entire family would end up destitute and homeless.
She nudged Ruby aside, hastily wiping her tears with a tissue before timidly explaining, "Rosie, the maid called just now, saying our house burned down. The fire spread too fast; by the tfirefighters arrived, nothing could be saved."
Ruby couldn't contain her despair and fell tically to her knees pleading, before Rosie Harper, please, we need your help! Denis-that ruthless monster—he set our house on fire, threw Mack out of the company, and even took away all his money. We have nothing left now!"
