Breaking Free From Mr. Ceo novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177 

He knew Rosalie was rejecting him. 

Eden gave Julian a cold, disdainful glance, taking in his shocked expression. He let out a mocking laugh, then shifted his gaze to the crowd behind Julian, finally landing on Roseanne. 

“Mr. Galloway, instead of wasting time on Rosalie, you should spend more time with your ex–girlfriend. If this time your ex–girlfriend gets upset and leaves again because of you, Rosalie won’t have the heart to continue being your emotional crutch,” Eden said, each word like a dagger to Julian’s heart. 

With that, Eden continued to walk outside, still holding Rosalie in his arms. 

Roseanne’s expression flickered when the topic turned to her. She felt a twinge of delight. Even Rosalie’s lover knew that Rosalie was a stand–in. It must have been Rosalie who told him. 

‘Rosalie is aware of her own role as a substitute. If I could reinforce that notion in Rosalie’s mind… she wondered. 

Roseanne’s spirits lifted imperceptibly, and even her eyes, which had been filled with venom whenever she looked at Rosalie, now seemed brighter. 

It wasn’t clear which of Eden’s words had set Julian off, but the next moment, he threw a punch at Eden’s face. 

“I said, my relationship with Rosalie is none of your business,” Julian growled. 

Eden, holding Rosalie, couldn’t dodge in time and took the punch squarely on the face. 

“Julian,” one of Julian’s associates muttered, taken aback by Julian’s sudden violence. 

Anya quickly stepped forward and grabbed her brother. 

“Are you crazy? Can’t you see Rosalie is uncomfortable right now? Let’s get her to the hospital first and deal with everything else later,” she said, her voice tinged with frustration. 

This was the first time she had seen her brother lose control like this, and it was all because of Rosalie. 

‘If he had shown this much care for his wife sooner, she wouldn’t have been in another man’s arms right now, Anya wondered. 

Anya was both angry and exasperated with her brother, who had never been good at winning girls‘ hearts. Julian had always sailed through life smoothly, assuming that everything would go his way. 

Maybe it was time Julian faced some hardship to realize who he truly cared about. 

Kaleb and the others also rushed forward to hold back Julian, who was seething with rage. 

“Julian, calm down,” they urged. 

Julian, who was emotionally out of control, only realized that Rosalie looked terrible when he heard the word “hospital“. 

Julian froze for a moment, then forced himself to swallow his anger and soften his tone. 

“I’m sorry, I lost my temper. But Rosalie is my wife, and I want you to give her to me,” he said to Eden, surprising everyone around him. 

It was the first time anyone had seen Julian apologize to someone he considered a rival, especially one who had tried to take his wife. 

The others exchanged glances, and Roseanne was the most shocked. 

Roseanne knew how proud Julian was. Julian who had been furious enough to kill just moments ago was now swallowing his pride and apologizing. Of course, it was all because of Rosalic. 

Because of Rosalie, Julian, known for his pride, was willing to swallow his pride and apologize. 

Anya also looked at Julian in surprise. As much as she wanted to let him suffer for his behavior, she couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
