Chapter 1807

“What do you think you’re doing?”

Teaching you a lesson.”

With that, he circled the table and lifted her from her seat.

Rose clung to the edge of the table. Don’t you dare. Ah!”

in one swift motion, Morison had hoisted Rose into his arms and strode out of the dining room. His steady gait was anything but sickly.c2

It wasn’t until Rose was laid down on the bedroom bed and Morrison leaned over her that she scrambled backwards. “You can’t

Your say doesn’t count here”

Momson reached for her blouse

“I won’t eat leftovers again, alright?”

“We’ll settle the score for all the times before

“You’re a bully, completely unreasonable. This is just an excuse

Morrison snorted. “Yep, you got that night”

“You‘ Rose’s eyes widened in indignation

Morrison pinned her legs and loomed over her, “What now? It was your fault to be so disobedient

Rose looked at him for a long while, her anger gradually subsiding, her expression slowly calming “Morrison, you’re just worried about me, aren’t you?”

A frown creased Morrison’s brow, “Cocky much?”

Rose persisted, “And you’re jealous

“Can’t you understand plain English? Momson’s face darkened Strictly speaking, there was a hint of embarrassment turning into anger

Rose raised an eyebrow You doctored the dish made last night, only adding the special ingredient to Winston’s plate. When Winston swapped his dish with mine, you were afraid I’d eat the awful food, so you made a fuss to intercept all the dishes”

Morrison’s expression tensed

“Your anger just now, it was because I ate leftovers and possibly ingested the food you tampered with yesterday You’re worried it might harm me,

“Nonsense

After a long silence, Momson finally spoke with a gloomy face

“Did you see me tamper with the food? I said I wanted those dishes last night. Who cares if you end up eating them?”

Rose’s smile grew more evident, Still denying it? Then I just ask Winston, see why he insisted on swapping plates with me that night

As she spoke, she propped herself up to get up, but Morrison’s expression changed, and he pressed down on her shoulders to keep her in place Rose, you just me today youd steer clear of him.”

“But this is something I need to confirm, isn’t it?”

“It makes my stomach churn just seeing him. If you want me to die of pain, then go.”

Rose didn’t move but looked up at him, “Why does seeing him make your stomach churn?”

“Cant I just dislike him?”
