Chapter 275

“Don’t… No need to be this exaggerating.” Rosalie was merely a delivery rider. If Jonathan of Strico helped her find someone to substitute for her simply because she applied for leave, others would likely be flabbergasted.

She could only blame him for being so provocative and incredibly tempting in bed, causing her to be addicted to him.

“Ugh, good looks can truly be lethal. I’ve finally experienced it myself,” Rosalie thought.

“Rosalie? Rosalie!” Amelia’s voice rang out in Rosalie’s ears. The latter abruptly came back to her senses and answered, “Ah, Ms. Haab, what’s the matter?”

“I should be the one asking you that. You keep zoning out today. What’s wrong?” asked Amelia.

“Oh, nothing,” Rosalie said, but her face turned red again. “By the way, how is your mom’s leg?”

Yesterday, Matilda fell and broke her leg, so Amelia had to close the store early and send her mother to the hospital in a hurry.

Amelia said, “It’s not too serious. The doctor said that she’ll need to have a minor surgery tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow? But isn’t Aiden supposed to be attending the workshop tomorrow?” Rosalie inquired. It was a workshop for those children with cochlear implants to learn how to better adapt to the implant and understand what different pronunciations meant.

In other words, the class could help Aiden learn to “listen” and “speak” sooner.

“I’m afraid I can’t take Aiden to class tomorrow anymore. After all, my mom’s surgery requires a family member to be present,” replied Amelia.

Rosalie said, “If so, I’ll take Aiden to class tomorrow.”
