Chapter 54 Finally Seen The Light
“Rosic, what’s wrong?”

“I won’t be footing the fees for you. Don’t even dream about getting this spot,” Rosalie suddenly
uttered in a cold voice.
Madeline’s face dramatically changed. “Rosie, what do you mean by this!”
In an instant, Brian and Kendra became nervous.
Brian frowned. “Aren’t you my son’s girlfriend? And my daughter’s best friend? What’s wrong with lending a hand? Why do you have to speak so harshly? If we weren’t pressed for time to gather the money, we wouldn’t even need to ask you. It’s not like we won’t pay you back!”
After speaking, he looked at Rosalie with dissatisfaction and asked, “And you still expect to marry my son like this?”
Kendra expressed her displeasure, “Rosie, we’ve always considered you as part of our family. Are you upset because Dominic hasn’t been visiting you lately? But you should also consider the attitude of your own family. If they don’t respect others, naturally my son won’t visit. Even if you’re upset, you shouldn’t sabotage Madeline at such a critical moment. And to think you two are supposed to be best friends!”
After finishing her sentence, Kendra wore a light smile and added, “It’s okay to throw a tantrum at other times, but now, in such a critical moment, you should stop.”
How much dignity could a woman who moved in with her boyfriend less than a week into their relationship possibly have?
Kendra felt she had complete control, already assuming the haughty airs of a mother–in–law.
Rosalic looked at Kendra with a stiff expression. She couldn’t muster a particularly fierce look, but it was somewhat unpleasant, nonetheless.
“What kind of person your son is determines the treatment he’ll receive from my family. You expect my family to respect him? Does he deserve it?”
Upon hearing this, the Camposes were dumbfounded.
Madeline looked at Rosalie in disbelief before moving to grab her sleeve, but she was shrugged off by Rosalie. “I came here today to break up with Dominic and to take back my painting from his rented unit, not to be an easy mark for you to mooch off of.”
This statement was practically roared out, resonating throughout the entire office and even reaching the corridors.
The four members of the Quirk family who had just stepped out of the elevator also heard it.
Everyone was stunned in place.

Chapter 54 Finally Seen The Light
Ah, looks like she’s finally seen the light.
Finiched
A flush of surprise crossed the faces of the Quirk family members. It was their first time hearing Rosalie raise her voice in such a manner.
However, their hearts quickly leaped into their throats as Dominic just happened to step through the door.
They quickly followed along.
“Rosie, what are you talking about?” Dominic asked, trying to suppress his anger.
Rosalie finally saw Dominic. She had always thought he had a roguishly handsome look and was incredibly cool. Yet, it was this free–spirited man who was utterly devoted to her, his heart and eyes filled only with her. This made her feel an overwhelming sense of happiness.
In Rosalie’s eyes now, however, he was nothing more than an ill–mannered, impolite, and delusional hooligan!
She knew she had been overly obsessed before, as if under a spell. But that night, her world was shattered by a succession of shocking news. By the time she regained her senses, she realized that there had been signs all along. She had just been too naive and blind. The things she thought had attracted her were merely illusions she had created through countless layers of filters.
She had thrown away her future and ruined her prospects, all for this worthless individual. She was utterly overwhelmed by her own foolishness.
Looking back now, she thought she must have lost her mind. How could she have fallen for such a revolting man? The mere thought of it made her want to throw up.
When Dominic saw that Rosalie was just staring at him without saying a word, he was at a loss for what to say. After all, during their time together, he had always been in a superior position, merely teasing Rosalie at most. He was never one for small, tender gestures.
His gaze swept over Madeline, who quickly conveyed a silent cue, hinting for him to appease Rosalie.
Based on what Rosalie had just said, if the situation wasn’t smoothed over soon, there would be trouble with the money for Madeline’s overseas exchange.
Dominic was growing a bit

Every time he used this tactic, it would remind Rosalie of the time he had saved her. Consequently, Rosalie would forget all her worries and obediently stay by his side.
This time, as before, Rosalie took the lunch box. But before anyone could react, Rosalie flipped
A scream echoed throughout the entire floor. This drew even more curious onlookers,
In an instant, Dominic’s temper was completely extinguished. He knew well who he could not afford to offend.
