Chapter 247

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Fiona’s face, as Jonathan’s words were like a slap in her face.

Upon seeing this, Sarah was obviously dissatisfied and complained to Rosalie, “Hey, Rosalie. Fiona just said that out of kindness. Why is your boyfriend so full of himself? Even if he’s our guest, are you telling us to treat him like some important people?”

Rosalie just replied faintly, “My boyfriend is afraid of strangers, so he’ll keep some distance from unfamiliar people.”

Sarah and Fiona almost choked on their saliva.

They thought, “Afraid of strangers? This man doesn’t look like he’s afraid of strangers.”

However, when the man’s eyes glanced at them lazily, they could not help but have their hearts pounding like drums as if they were unconsciously intimidated by his gaze.

Sarah pursed her lips and did not say anything more. On the other hand, Fiona took an indirect approach shamelessly, asking Rosalie when she met Jonathan and how they got together, even going as far as to inquire about Jonathan’s identity by asking about his occupation and family background.

All the questions were vaguely averted by Rosalie.

As a result, Fiona found that she did not seem to gather any substantial information after questioning for a long time. However, given Jonathan’s presence in front of her, she could not lose her temper and had no choice but to force a smile while asking Rosalie, “So, what kind of work are you doing now?”

“I’m a delivery rider of a diner,” Rosalie replied generously, not feeling inferior for her career.

However, to Fiona’s ears, the words sounded like Rosalie had hit rock bottom. Thinking back, Rosalie was originally a lawyer, a profession envied by everyone. But now, she was working as a delivery rider, which was not much different from her previous job as a sanitary worker.

“Then, your boyfriend… Uh, didn’t Mr. Thompson help you search for another job?” Fiona asked, glancing at Jonathan, who was sitting beside Rosalie and playing with his girlfriend’s fingers.
