Chapter 73
“Sis, it’s time to eat!” Jaime’s voice came from behind.
Rosalynn took her eyes off Ava’s phone. “Coming!”
Jaime was already 19 this year. He wasn’t as dry, thin, and short in stature as when Rosalynn first met him four
years ago.
“I’m 184cm now, pretty impressive huh?” As soon as Jaime sat down, he smugly boasted.
“What’s so great about you? It’s grandpa who’s amazing” Rosalynn looked at the kind-faced old man.
Dawson Jules had a serious illness a few years ago.
Actually, he wasn’t completely well. He’s still very thin, and not looking too good.
However, probably because Jaime had grown up and became more sensible, Dawson’s mood was good, always happy and carefree.
“Ms. Tesdal, this drumstick is for you. You’ve lost a lot of weight since the last time I saw you.”
“I tried to tell her, but she wouldn’t admit it.” Ava chimed in.
‘Since you’re at grandpa’s, eat more and fatten up!” The old man put the drumstick into Rosalynn’s bowl.
His cooking was delicious, with the taste of Rosalynn’s grandfather.
Rosalynn ate a lot and when Dawson saw her enjoy the food, his eyes almost closed with smile.
After dinner, Ava had other things to do and called a car to go to the airport.
At night, the old city was especially quiet, and it got a little cold.
Grandpa went to bed early. Rosalynn and Jaime huddled around a small stove, eating roasted chestnuts.
“I think it’s better that you’re not working at Bane Corporation. I always feel like the president there has ulterior motives for you.” Jaime peeled a plump chestnut and put it on Rosalynn’s plate.
Rosalynn coughed lightly.
Jaime had only seen Wayne with her once. Then, somehow, he came to this conclusion.
In his words…It’s a man’s intuition!
“He’s engaged.” Rosalynn shook her head. “The bride-to-be is beautiful.”
“I saw her, not as good looking as you.” Jaime threw a small, shriveled chestnut into his mouth.
Rosalynn laughed.
Jaime never said insincere words. She believed that was his heartfelt words.
“You can stay here for a while, no need to rush to find a job. I’ve made some money selling code recently. enough to support you!” Jaime continued, “With the money you’ve given me over the years, if you don’t like this little courtyard, we can go look for a bigger place tomorrow!”
Rosalynn ate a chestnut slowly.
She did need to find a place to rest and give birth to her child.
And Jaime’s place was not a good choice.
He had school, and Dawson’s health wasn’t great.
“No, I want to go back to L City, closer to people I know.” Rosalynn shook her head.
Jaime looked disappointed, and Rosalynn didn’t console him.
14:58
After a while, Jaime’s mind jumped to another topic.
It wasn’t until Rosalynn yawned several times that he let her go to rest, and he dove into his room to continue
coding.
He typed a few lines, then grabbed a notebook and quickly wrote: Earn 10 million, buy a big house in L City for
sis!
After writing, he glued it to the wall opposite with satisfaction. He could see it as soon as he looked up.
The room was heated, so Rosalynn just covered herself with a thin blanket.
But her sleep was not steady. She dreamt of Wayne giving flowers to Heatherway.
In her dream, Heatherway took the bouquet, and they smiled and hugged each other tenderly.
Suddenly, the beautiful flowers twisted and grew many vines that attacked her fiercely.
The vines wrapped around her and thorns grew, piercing her skin and flesh.
In great pain, She screamed for Wayne to save her.
Wayne’s tall back appeared before her eyes.
