Chapter 1056 Twist and Turn (10)

Tom furrowed his brow upon hearing this and gently pulled his sister behind him.

"No way, I won't let Rose go with you," he said firmly.

Elliot's eyes darkened at Tom's words, and his face turned unpleasant.

He had gone to great lengths to find evidence that would prove Tom's innocence, all for Rose's sake. But as soon as Tom was acquitted, he wanted to take Rose away.

He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and was about to speak when Rose tugged at Tom's sleeve, her voice gentle as she tried to calm the situation.

"Tom, please trust me. I'll handle things with him."

For now, her main concern was Leah, who was still unwilling to leave Elliot's mansion.

Tom's dark eyes widened suddenly. "You'll handle it? Can you really handle it?"

If you could have let go of that man, you wouldn't have lost your life five years ago. If he hadn't hurt you so deeply, you wouldn't have contemplated suicide.

Tom's handsome face was filled with caution and wariness towards Elliot.

Rose gently held her brother's wrist and looked at him with determination in her eyes.

"Tom, believe me. When this is all over, I'll divorce Elliot."

This time, she wouldn't trust that scumbag again. She would live a stable life with her children and her brother.

Elliot, sitting in the driver's seat, heard her words and his gaze turned cold.

No way, he would never agree to a divorce.

He clenched his hands on the steering wheel, his handsome face icy and resolute.

Tom was still worried. "But I..."

"Tom..."

Rose squeezed her brother's hand with a stronger grip, as if conveying her unwavering determination and will.

Tom reluctantly nodded.

Rose smiled brightly at her brother. "Tom, it's getting late. You should go back and rest."

Tom agreed and couldn't help but give one last piece of advice. "Rose, please be careful and contact me immediately if anything happens."

"Okay."

Rose waved to her brother and then turned to open the back seat of the car.

Leah watched this scene unfold from not far away.

Great! Not only was Uncle okay but Daddy and Mommy were getting close again too! Now all Mommy had to do was tell Daddy they were family so they could be happy together every day! The little one clenched her fists tightly with an uncontrollable smile on their face.

...

The next day, Rose got up early and went shopping before heading over to her brother's place with a bunch of groceries.

When she arrived, Tom was already awake. He was surprised when he saw his sister so early in the morning. "Rose, why did you come so early?"

"I brought milk and sandwich," said Rose smilingly as she walked into the apartment holding breakfast in one hand while carrying another large bag of things in another hand.

"Why did you buy so much stuff?" Tom pretended not to be pleased as he gave a light scolding tone.

Rose smiled, her lips curling gently. She spoke warmly, "You've just returned, and I was worried there might not be anything to eat at home."

"I'm a grown man; I can take care of myself," he replied.

Tom helplessly ruffled his sister's hair and then turned to take the groceries to the kitchen.

When he emerged again, Rose had set the breakfast on the table. She sat in a chair, lifted her gaze to her brother, and there was obvious nervousness in her eyes.

"Tom, please eat quickly. After breakfast... I'll take you to meet someone"
