Chapter 401

Chapter 401

“Inns have a less-than-ideal environment; hotels would be a better choice,” Lillian suggested.

“With the money I have right now, I can only afford an inn,” Rosalie replied.

Lillian hurriedly added, “If you’re worried about not having enough money, I can-”

“Lillian, I appreciate your kindness, but I want to rely on myself,” Rosalie interjected, her inner thoughts echoing, “In the end, surviving in this world depends on one’s own efforts.”

Lillian opened her mouth but ultimately didn’t say anything. She knew Rosalie had her own pride!

After booking an inn, Lillian sent Callum out to buy some food. Then, inside the inn room, she finally broached the subject with Rosalie, asking what had happened and why she had unexpectedly ended things with Jonathan.

“He said he’s tired and doesn’t want to love me anymore. In reality, he never truly believed in me throughout our relationship,” Rosalie said with a bitter laugh, self-deprecatingly adding, “It seems like I’m just not cut out for love!”

“Rosalie, please don’t laugh like that. It really hurts to see you like this,” Lillian said as she hugged her tightly. “Rosalie, if you feel like crying, go ahead. Aren’t we best friends? No matter what, I’ll always be on your side! Jonathan hurt you, and in the future, I’ll help you find a better boyfriend. When the time comes, I’ll help you make him regret it! Don’t keep all your grievances and sadness bottled up inside. When the time comes, let it out!”

Lillian kept urging.

Rosalie leaned against Lillian’s shoulder, sensing the chill slowly fading away from her body at that moment.

She came to the realization that, in the end, Lillian was her lifeline!

“Lillian is such an incredible friend; how could I ever repay her in the future?” she pondered.

Rosalie murmured softly. “I guess I’ve already cried all
