Rose looked up. Her pale face was coloured with shades of crimson, her eyes gleamed, and her lips
were red and swollen by his kiss, enchanting like pink cherry blossoms.
Her gaze fell on the man’s face. His handsome face didn’t show much expression: his eyebrows
frowned slightly, his nose had a prominent bridge, and his thin lips pressed together lightly.
The air was very quiet with a faint fragrance of flowers. It was so quiet that they only hear each other’s
powerful and fierce heartbeat.
“Be brave.” His thin lips moved slightly, encouraging her.
After Rose was kissed by him, her mind really became confused.
All her resistance was melted by his kiss. She seemed to have the courage to face the things in the
envelope.
In other words, if she continued to not face it, then Bright would force her to face it and open it.
Otherwise, he won't let her off easily.
Rose reached out to the envelope on the table and paused for a moment. Finally, she gritted her teeth
and grabbed the envelope. It didn’t feel too soft or too hard in her hand and felt like a notebook.
Her heart tightened again. She could only take a deep breath.
“It's not a scourge. It won't eat you. It's nothing scary.” Seeing her appear as if she was ready to
sacrifice her life at any moment, Bright really wanted to laugh but he managed to hold back.
Rose glared sideways at him. You are relaxed because you’re not the one facing the problem, she
thought.
Bright raised his eyebrows.
She opened the envelope, reached in, and took out the contents.
She moved slowly, pulling out the notebook-like thing bit by bit, revealing a red shape. She slowly
dragged it out until red covered her entire pupil and she saw the gilded national emblem and “marriage
certificate” on the cover of the red book.
Her hand shook, and both the book and the envelope fell on the ground and hit her feet.
She took a step back in fear and stared at Bright with questions in her eyes.
Bright bent down to pick up the marriage certificate and opened it in front of her.
Rose clearly saw that the certificate holder column read Bright and the bottom section was filled with
his information and her information.
Rose...
No, no, it must be the same name and surname. His wife couldn’t be her. How could it be her?
Rose didn't dare to imagine that the person who had entered into a marriage contract with herself was
Bright, the man standing at the top of the pyramid.
“Don't doubt it. It's really you. The fake is also you. You are my wife.” Bright's words further sealed their
relationship as husband and wife.
All of Rose's suspicions disappeared as a result of his words.
“So you knew my relationship with you all along?” Rose frowned.
“When you first came to HY Group and I met you, I wasn’t sure.” Bright explained. “It wasn’t until I
found the marriage certificate that I had left behind that I was sure you are my wife.”
So he always knew yet he pretended not to know just to trick her and play her?
Did he want to see her make a fool of herself that badly?
Rose spontaneously felt humiliated, and anger suddenly flared in her head!
She clamped her hand into a fist then let go, again and again. She breathed deeply in secret non-stop,
otherwise she would surely slap his face!
“You always knew. Why didn't you tell me?” She suppressed the anger in her heart, trying to calm down
her tone.
“I have always hinted at you.” Bright gazed at her calmly and looked into her eyes. There was fire in her
eyes, as if she wanted to burn him to ashes.
“Haha, have you?” How come she didn’t notice?
“This only shows that you…” Bright pointed at his forehead with a finger, suggesting that she was
stupid without saying anymore.
“You are a bastard!” Rose was full of anger in her heart, and after being so insulted by him again, she
could no longer maintain her demeanor.
Bright, “…”
How was he a bastard?
“You just want to see me getting made fun of. You think it's fun to play tricks like this, right?” Rose
blamed him aggrievedly, her eyes turning red from the tears that surfaced. “Or are you trying to test
me? Afraid that I will cheat on you?”
“But knowing our contractual relationship, you can’t do… to me...”
Rose bit her lip, not knowing how to continue.
“Do what to you?”
“Touching me and wanting to take advantage of me at any time without any room for discussion. Do
you know how much pressure I am under? I have always been afraid that the husband I’ve never met
will create trouble for me, but I didn't expect him to be you bastard!”
Rose felt extremely aggrieved. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more
she couldn't help but be sad, so much that she couldn't hold back her tears.
Her eyes were red, and her pitiful appearance made Bright feel that perhaps he crossed the line.
He stretched out his long arms and took Rose into his arms, letting her head rest on his shoulders
while her face pressed against his chest. He was not afraid that her tears would stain his white shirt
and expensive handmade custom suit.
“Actually, the moment I met you, I didn’t think I would interact with you again in the future. It's just that
what happened later was beyond our control, and you were wronged. But Mr. Lee is only exercising his
legal rights. I said this before, it's just that you are too stupid...so you can't blame me entirely.” While he
explained, he still had to maintain his own arrogance. Very typical of Bright.
Rose didn't stop crying but shrugged her shoulders even harder.
“Okay, don't cry. If you keep crying, your makeup will be ruined and you won’t be pretty.” Bright coaxed
her softly.
“I want to cry. I don't even have the right to cry anymore?” Rose got into a temper.
Bright smiled helplessly. “Okay, okay, okay. Mrs. Lee can cry whatever she wants.”
Women are really troublesome!
Rose’s cry was interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She withdrew from Bright’s arms and
took out her phone to see that it was her grandmother.
Oh no, grandma must be worried that she didn’t pick up Doris yet.
She wiped the tears from her face and answered the phone. “Grandma—”
“Rose, you get off work at five o'clock to pick up Doris. Now it's past six o'clock. Why haven't you
brought her to see grandma?” Jennifer waited so long at home that she grew anxious. “Did you lie to
grandma about bringing Doris here? Then grandma is going to pick her up from the Coopers’ place
right now!”
“Grandma, I was delayed because I had to handle something that just came up. I'm already on my way
to Nora’s house. Just wait at home obediently. You don't know where Nora lives. She has a lot of
properties.” Rose's voice was a little hoarse from crying.
Jennifer naturally heard something wrong in her voice. “What's wrong with you? Are you crying? Who
is bullying you? Tell grandma. Grandma will help you.”
Rose looked at Bright, who stood beside her. “Grandma, I...”
