Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

The study door swung open just as the butler continued to shout outside. Rosie furrowed he brow and scolded in a hushed voice, “Leave! Eli is resting. Don’t disturb him!”

Rosie was genuinely concerned that it would disrupt the hypnosis effect. She didn’t want to waste this rare opportunity she had found tonight.

“Miss Momsey, I came to inquire if Mr. Winters would like some tea or coffee. Furthermore, this is the Winters’ residence, and it’s not your place to interfere. After all, you are not Mr. Winters’ wife.”

Boris had grown tired of Rosie’s presence. She would visit every few days and always boss the Winters’ staff around as if she were already the lady of the house.

Even when Amanda was, she didn’t have many opinions about the staff.

So, who was Rosie, an outsider, to behave this way?

With that, he pushed open the study door and intended to enter. Rosie was startled and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

“What are you doing? I already said Eli is resting inside. You can’t go in. If he needs will call for you…”

Before Rosie could finish her sentence, Boris interrupted her, “Miss Momsey, please understand your position. You are not the lady of the house here, and you have no right to command me.”

“How dare you speak to me like this! Are all the Winters’ staff this impolite? Is this how Eli usually teaches you!”

Just at that moment, the psychiatrist noticed that Elias was about to wake up.

She swiftly stood up and approached Rosie before whispering something in her ear. Rosie’s face turned pale as she glanced at the man slumped over the desk.

“Well, you may leave now. I will contact you if I require anything. You don’t have to send me home. Eli will have the driver take me later.” Rosie deliberately put on a show in front of the butler, making him believe that the psychiatrist was just her friend.

Despite seeing the true nature of the psychiatrist, Boris still harbored doubts. “When I entered the study just now, this young lady wasn’t here. How did she suddenly appear? Who let her in? Mr. Winters doesn’t see just anyone.”

“What are you doing? She’s my friend, and she came with me. I can’t just leave her behind, can I?”
