Seeing Emma's bright and happy smile, Rosiley couldn't help but be affected. Her smile widened and
she was in full vigor.
Bertram looked at her quietly with affection in his eyes.
However, Rosiley still had a question in her heart.
"Emma, how did you manage to record a video of the incident?"
This was something that Rosiley never understood.
Hearing this, Emma pursed her lips and said bashfully, "Rosiley, do you remember what I told you at
the reception?"
Reception? Rosiley raised her eyebrows. The banquet where she lied to her?
“Actually, what I said that time was true, except..." Emma glanced at the man beside her, then lowered
her head and whispered, "Except for that glass of wine.’
Rosiley remembered that Emma always said that she was her idol, especially in terms of her style of
doing things. She thought that she said that to gain her trust.
However, she did not expect that it was actually her sincere words.
Seeing that she was too guilty to look at her, Rosiley said gently, "Yeah, I remember what you said."
Emma raised her head and her darkened face lit up. She asked in surprise, "Rosiley, do you really
remember?"
She thought that after that incident, she might not remember many details.
"Yes, I remember. I'm very impressed.” Rosiley nodded, "But what does this have to do with you filming
the video?"
"It does. Because you are someone I admire, I had an eye on Rorey when I saw her call you away."
Emma shrugged. "After all, I knew about Rorey, and I was afraid that she would harm you, so I thought
of filming a video. If anything happens, it could be used as evidence.”
Speaking to this point, Emma revealed a very happy expression. "Fortunately, I was alert at that time.
Otherwise, you would have to bear the infamy of being heartless.”
"Thank you very much, Emma." If it weren't for her help, Rosiley felt that she would be pointed at
wherever she went and be called a murderer.
Just imagining it, she felt that she could not bear the opprobrium.
Emma shook her head. "You don't need to thank me. It's my compensation for my previous mistake."
Rosiley smiled and said, "Let's not talk about the past."
Emma replied with a smile. Then, she turned to look at the man who was silent and said to Rosiley,
"Rosiley, I gotta go, keep in touch."
With that, she stood up.
Rosiley understood what she meant and smiled, "Actually, you don't have to leave in a hurry."
Emma shook her head. “I don't want to be a third wheel.”
Rosiley smiled resignedly. Emma misunderstood her relationship with Bertram.
However, she did not explain. Instead, she smiled and watched as Emma happily ran out of the room.
Emma turned around and blinked at her, and she covered her lips and snickered as she closed the
door.
With the sound of the door closing, the ward fell into silence.
Rosiley withdrew her gaze and glanced at Bertram. She paused for a few seconds, then lowered her
head to think for a moment and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chad, for taking the time to visit me."
That "Mr. Chad" sounded so estranged.
A trace of loneliness flashed in her beautiful eyes. Bertram said indifferently, "I think since Emma can
be your friend, so I should be more qualified to your friend.”
Rosiley was astounded for a moment, then, she smiled awkwardly, "Of course, Mr. Chad..."
When seeing that his eyes darkened, she changed her words. "Bertram, of course you are my friend.”
After she finished speaking, she laughed awkwardly, and then cursed in her heart. Wasn't it just a title?
Why did he mind so much?
Of course Bertram minded it, he minded it very much.
The title Mr. Chad was synonymous with stranger. It felt like there was no friendship between them.
But how could that be?
At least, he saved her.
Bertram raised his eyebrows and asked, "How were you injured?"
Emma also asked before, but Rosiley's answer was too casual, and he had doubts in his heart.
Rosiley was a smart person. Hearing his question, she instantly understood what he was thinking and
gave a different answer. “Hurt by a villain.”
Villain? Bertram's eyes narrowed slightly. "Rorey?"
Rosiley spread out her hands and said, “So everyone knew the shit between Rorey and me."
"Was what happened today done by you?”
Bertram asked.
What happened today? Was it about Rorey being taken an ugly photo and being bullied online?
Rosiley shook her head. "Nope. My good friend did it to avenge me.’
Bertram nodded. "Your good friend is really thoughtful.”
"Of course.” Rosiley raised her eyebrows proudly. "We have been good friends for many years and we
have a good relationship."
Seeing her appearance turning cheerful as she mentioned her good friend, his eyes became gentle.
"Actually, we had known each other for many years"
He stared meaningfully at her and said in his heart.
His gaze was too focused. Rosiley felt a little uncomfortable when being stared at. She suddenly
remembered what Payton had said.
"Rosiley, I think Bertram likes you."
Originally, she thought that Payton was talking nonsense, but now that he was staring at her like this,
as a woman, her innate vigilance was awakened.
She suddenly felt that Payton might be right.
She coughed and pretended to be unconcerned as she asked, "Bertram, aren't you busy?”
Bertram looked at her calmly. "Do you want to expel me?"
"... She was seen through!
Rosiley smiled embarrassedly and denied, "No, I don't.”
Bertram raised his eyebrows. "I'm not busy, so I can stay longer.”
Rosiley smiled awkwardly. "Stay as long as you want." As long as he wouldn't stare at her like that!
However, he kept looking at her with that kind of meaningful gaze, causing her to panic and feel
extremely uneasy.
She wanted to lower her head and pretend to read, but the presence of his gaze was so strong that she
could not ignore it, and she could not read a single word.
In the end, she had no choice but to look up at him and resignedly said to him, "Bertram, can you stop
looking at me with the way you look at the female lead in your TV series?"
Seeing how resigned she was, Bertram couldn't help but laugh, “What's wrong? Aren't you used to it?”
Of course she was not!
Rosiley didn't say this straightforwardly. She smiled half-jokingly and half-seriously, and she said, “If
you look at me like this and others see it, they will misunderstand that you like me.”
After saying that, she cautiously looked at him. Actually, she was testing him to see if he liked her as
Payton and she suspected.
The room fell into silence, and Rosiley felt awkward.
If Bertram didn't like her, it would be really embarrassing to say that.
Just as she was thinking about how to remedy the situation, his low voice rang in her ears.
"Yes, I do like you.”
