"Okay, Burke. Say something. Don't you know that we are all concerned about you? Can you stop
acting like this next time? If Rose comes back and sees you like this, do you think she will stay with
you? " Seeing the stubborn look on his face, Xavier couldn't help but shout at Burke.
But his words provoked the nerve in the bottom of Burke's heart. Burke began to lose his temper. "I
don't need your sympathy, and I don't want your sympathy! Get out! " Burke swept the things on the
table to the ground.
Rose's photo on the table was also swept to the ground. With a bang, the glass frame broke into
several pieces.
There appeared a crack on her smiling face.
Seeing his anger, Xavier slammed the door and left.
Burke's chest heaved with anger. When he saw the photo on the ground by accident, he suddenly lost
his mind and muttered, "Rose, Rose..."
He pushed the wheelchair over and bent over to pick up the photo frame. However, He lost his balance
and fell heavily to the ground along with the wheelchair. It seemed that he didn't know how to feel pain,
but just kept reaching for the photo frame.
He put his hands on the ground and crawled towards the photo with all his strength.
The broken glass cut the skin of his hands, and bright red blood flowed out.
Xavier who slammed the door and left to the room was still worried about Burke. Then he heard a loud
noise inside. It seemed that the wheelchair had fallen down, so he immediately went back in the room
to check.
That was what he saw when he returned.
Once upon a time, the arrogant and proud Burke, who could frighten his opponent away with a glance
in the business world, fell to the ground, crawling with both his hands, and moved his body inch by inch
with difficulty. Finally he reached the photo of Rose.
A faint smile appeared on his pale face, as if he had no feeling of the pain. He just peeled off the glass
fragment on the photo, took out Rose's photo and pressed it against his chest.
"Burke!" Even though the man didn't shed tears easily, Xavier's eyes were red. He rushed to help him
up and put Burke on the wheelchair.
"Burke, why are you doing this? !" Xavier turned his back and wiped his tears. He knew that Burke had
never forgotten Rose, but he didn't understand why he missed Rose so much and didn't allow him to
tell Rose anything about his car accident.
He couldn't even mention him to Rose.
He loved her so much!
Burke gradually calmed down and returned to his senses. He sneered and smiled silently.
"Burke, I'll tell Rose now. I'll let her come back to see you! I must make her come back to you. " Xavier
took out his phone regardless of anything, but was stopped by Burke.
"Xavier, don't disturb her," Burke raised his voice and scolded.
"Burke, why? Do you still love her so much? " Xavier widened his eyes and questioned, "why don't you
let her know that you had a car accident? Why haven't you gone to see her for so many years even if
you know her address? I really don't understand! "
"I told you not to look for her. If you ask her to come, I won't see her either. " Burke closed his eyes and
said coldly.
The photo was stained with the blood on Burke's hand, covering his bright smile.
Xavier knew that Burke would do whatever he asked.
Xavier looked at the sky and took a few deep breaths. He went to the inner room of the office and
fetched a medicine box to help Burke deal with the wound.
He was familiar with everything here.
Burke didn't want the Gu family to hire any nursing workers to help him with his life. He even didn't
allow Mike to touch his wheelchair.
He didn't want anyone to help him, or perhaps he was stubbornly keeping his last dignity.
Xavier would come here when he was free. No matter how hard Burke scolded, he couldn't leave.
"I don't want to clean the wound." Burke turned his hand behind his back coldly.
Xavier was exasperated, "your wound is still bleeding! You will get infected if you don't clean up the
broken glass! "
"Then let it be infected." It sounded like Burke was talking about someone else.
He thought, even if it hurt like this, at least it would make his heart less painful.
If he was infected, it would be good for him to end such a day. He would cherish Sheryl in the next life.
In the banquet hall, Rose finished the following cooperation contracts with the presidents of several
companies and walked out of the banquet hall with Austin.
"Rose, I'm leaving now. Be careful next time, okay?" Austin looked at Rose worriedly. She had drunk a
lot during the dinner party and now she looked a little drunk. He was worried about her safety.
"Are you leaving so soon?" Rose raised her wrist to check the time.
"Yes, I've booked the return ticket. I'll go straight to the airport later. Fortunately, I didn't bring any
luggage with me. It's very convenient. " Austin came here just to see Rose. This was the first
celebration party of the Cloud Group, of great significance.
In fact, he still had a lot of problems at home.
The Gu Group was not only suppressed, but several investment companies were ready to withdraw
their investment.
He had to go back and continue to deal with the problem.
"Austin, is there really nothing going on in China?" Rose felt that Austin seemed to have encountered a
very difficult problem.
"I'm really fine. You did a good job tonight. Congratulations, girl. You've really grown a lot." Austin
praised sincerely.
"Austin, don't flatter me like that anymore." Rose said half jokingly.
"Well, I'm leaving now." Austin looked away and said goodbye to Rose.
With a wave of her hand, she stood at the door and watched Austin leave.
She had drunk too much just now. As soon as she felt the impact of alcohol, her stomach suddenly hurt
for no reason. And whenever it hurt, she thought of that man.
The pain was so familiar to her that it tortured her day and night.
Rose shook her head and staggered back. But she didn't feel the pain as she expected. Instead, she
fell into someone's steady arms.
Rose raised her head and Jim was smiling at a close distance.
"Have you finished your conversations?" Jim asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Rose broke away from Jim's arms and rubbed her dizzy head.
"Let's go. I'll drive you home." Jim wanted to escort Rose.
"No, thanks." Rose pulled his hands away and smiled politely and indifferently. "I can ask my secretary
to send me back. You should go home early too. "
Jim wanted to say something more, but Rose turned into the banquet hall and chatted happily with a
group of people again.
Jim stood there for a long time, lost in thought.
After sending the last group of guests out, Rose changed her clothes in the lounge. When she came
out, Secretary Chen had already left.
Standing at the door, Jim waved the car key in his hand and smiled wickedly at Rose, "don't look for
her. Secretary Chen has taken my bribe and gone home."
