Chapter 28

Genevieve remembered how Anthony had just taken a beating for her, and a strange sensation flickered through her heart but was quickly suppressed by her.

With a serious nod and a no–nonsense attitude, she affirmed, “That’s only fair. I’ll cover the medical and supplement expenses.”

Anthony heaved a sigh of relief, his eyebrows subtly lifting.

‘See, she really cares about me, and who knows how touched she might be!‘ Anthony thought.

Just as he was about to further ease the tense relationship between them, a woman descended from the upstairs private room. She rushed to Anthony, visibly worried and shaken.

“Anthony, I heard you got hurt. Where are you injured?” Rosalie, appearing weak and delicate, almost pressed herself up against the man as tears of concern welled in her eyes.

The surrounding temperature instantly dropped.

Anthony frowned, about to push Rosalie away when he heard Genevieve chuckle beside him. “Guess you won’t need me to tag along to the hospital. Once you’re done getting treated, just hit me up for reimbursement,” Genevieve remarked.

With that, she turned and briskly exited the doorway.

Anthony pursed his lips, pushing Rosalie aside with a cold expression. “Why are you here? Don’t you need to be

with Samson?”

Rosalie tensed, feeling uneasy. She sniffled and explained, “Aiden and I were grabbing dinner with the TV director in a private room…”

Anthony narrowed his eyes, his tone tinged with a hint of indifference. “So, it looks like you’re dead set on sticking

around?”

Originally, he had arranged for her to go abroad with Samson.

Unexpectedly, Rosalie sought help from Aiden without him knowing.

Rosalie carefully pressed her lips together, reaching out to brush away the tears at the corner of her eyes, presenting a piteous demeanor. “Samson is still young. I’ll only think of Austin if I go abroad now, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself…”

Anthony frowned upon hearing that name.

His features were cold and stern as he gave her a deep, silent look, then walked out without saying a word.
