Rosalie wasn’t sure if her eye roll was enough to make Roseanne realize what a fool she was. “Ms. Palmer, are you saying I hate you because you took Julian away from me?”
“Isn’t that the case? Roseanne chuckled, a smug look in her eyes.
Rosalie calmly stared at Roseanne. “I think I need to explain something to Ms. Palmer. People dislike maggots, and it’s just because maggots are disgusting, not because they occupy a latrine.”
Roseanne’s eyes slowly widened as she processed Rosalie’s words, as if she couldn’t believe Rosalie had said something like that.
“If you still don’t understand what I’m saying, Ms. Palmer, I suggest you take an English language class first. Once you’ve mastered the language, you can learn other things. After all, if you can’t even learn the language, how can you expect to understand anything else? Don’t you think?”
Rosalie’s casual tone and nonchalant attitude completely deflated Roseanne’s sense of superiority, leaving her seething with rage.

She thought. So, why have I come? Just to be humiliated by Rosalie?‘
Roseanne thought to herself, ‘Rosalie, keep pretending. You act like you don’t care about Julian, but wait until the day I marry him. Let’s see if you can still smile then
Roseanne’s appearance didn’t affect Rosalie’s mood much, but being harassed by a jumping maggot did make her lose some of her appetite.
15 mitte, die Talley?” Norah, who shared an office with her, noticed her
“Nothing, just ran into an annoying pest. It feels unlucky.”
She put on a smile and turned to Norah.
and asked.
Julian had been hospitalized due to acute pneumonia. During his stay, many people visited him, but Rosalie was notably absent.
After personally bringing him to the hospital that one time, she hadn’t returned, acting as if she were just a passerby who had dropped him off.
Julian clutched his phone, coughing incessantly, making him feel even more restless.
“Mr. President, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back to the office,” Alan carefully spoke, watching Julian, who was seemingly distracted, staring at his phone
“Go ahead”
“Alright.”
“Wait. Julian called him back
