Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 90

Around five o'clock in the afternoon...

On the way sending Grace's grandmother home, Grace dropped Rosa off midway at a bus stop.

She said it was too inconvenient, and that their places were too far apart.

Rosa didn't get out of the car. She said that she wanted to see how her grandmother was living.

Grace held the steering wheel, feeling a little awkward.

"Rosa, I'll bring you next time. Don't you have something to do? Our paths are quite far off. It's not convenient for me to drive you home!" Grace said hurriedly.

"It's okay. I'll go back on my own later. It doesn't matter!"

"I have something to do today, so it's not convenient for me to take you there!"

"Is it inconvenient for you? Or is it because of where grandmother lives?" Rosa asked coldly.

Grace was stunned. She looked into the rearview mirror and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Nothing. I was just thinking that Grandma is old now and she wants to be with you. Since you could afford a car and a branded bag, I thought Grandma would be able to live in a decent place!"

Grace's grandmother quickly signalled her with her eyes. She shook her head and wanted her to stop.

Grace tightened her grip on the steering wheel.

"I remember there was one time you craved for meat when you were young. Grandma didn't have the money, so she went to pick up trash. After collecting enough money, she bought ten dollars worth of meat and gave all of it to you!"

"When you were sick, Grandma didn't have enough money for the medicine. She went everywhere asking for money. I remember you said that you would repay Grandma when you grow up!"

Rosa's voice was cold and sarcastic.

"Rosa, get out. I need a word with you!" Grace couldn't stand it anymore and opened the door.

"Rosa, stop. I'll talk to her myself. Don't quarrel with her." Grace's grandmother held her hand timidly.

Rosa patted her hand and said, "It's alright!"

Then she opened the door.

Grace walked further away and signalled her to follow her.

Rosa walked over.

"Grandma told you?" Grace asked with a frown.

"Didn't you say that if it weren't for grandma, you wouldn't have survived? Now that you have money, you should have enjoyed it with her, and yet you sent her to an old folk's home? Why did you let her stay there alone?" Rosa questioned angrily.

"The one I found for her is worth 5,000 dollars a month, and all of the facilities are the best!"

"The best? Do you think Grandma cares about those things? Grandma cares about you. She came here because she wanted to see you every day, but you left her there. How often do you see her? Ten days, half a month, or a month?"

"What do you know? There are a lot of old people, nurses, and entertainment there!" Grace felt uncomfortable.

"Really? I thought you were worried that Grandma would disturb your date!"

"Rosa, what do you mean?" Grace was also angry.

"Haha!" Rosa suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing much. I'm just laughing at... how scary a person could change so quickly!"

Rosa frowned and her gaze was filled with grief.

"What do you mean I changed!?"

"You know you've changed. Grandma said that she wanted to go back to her hometown. If you can't let her live with you, then you can send her back to her hometown. There are people she is familiar with, and... a lot of memories!"

Grace kept quiet.

"If you find it troublesome, I'll send grandma back personally! So we won't disturb your date and waste your precious time to shop for luxury goods!"

"Rosa!" Grace shouted angrily.

"I'm not deaf!" She answered lightly, and for the first time, she looked distant.

"I got it!" With that, Grace turned around and left.

The next second, the car made a screeching sharp turn and vanished into the distance.

Rosa couldn't help but take a deep breath, her eyes filled with sadness.

"Why did Grace change so fast?"

It's almost as if she doesn't know her anymore!

"Ring ring ring..." her phone suddenly started ringing.

Rosa picked it up and saw that it was a call from Miranda.

"Hello... Oh, okay, yeah, I'll be right there!"

During the call, Miranda asked her to go there as soon as possible, because something urgent came up.

She put aside her sadness and took a taxi.

She was stunned as she arrived at the unexpected place.

It was a Karaoke.

And it looked very expensive.

Miranda booked the largest private room.

The lights inside were shining brightly, and the music was unusually loud.

When Rosa pushed the door open, she almost thought that she had gone into the wrong room.

"Rosa, come here!" Miranda grabbed Rosa with a smile and walked over.

Then, Rosa saw a row of men and women sitting on leather sofas.

They were about the same age as her.

Miranda immediately grabbed the microphone and said, "Hey, all the single men here, this is my best friend, Rosa. She is a genius from Redwood Academy. She is beautiful, smart, and single. If you like her, feel free to pursue her!"

Rosa immediately frowned and pulled Miranda aside.

"Miranda, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Miranda was slightly drunk. Obviously, she had drunk a lot.

"I'm not talking nonsense. This is a group blind date!" Miranda tilted her head and said.

Rosa was stunned and found it hard to believe.

"A group blind date?"

"Yes, many of these men are introduced to me by my grandmother. I've called them over one by one, and I've also called many of my female friends. This group date is quite grand am I right!" After saying that, she leaned over, picked up the wine on the table, and began to drink.

"Miranda!" Rosa snatched her wine and asked, "What happened to you? Why are you having a group date so suddenly?"

Miranda pouted and was a little unhappy. "Why? Why can't I have a group date?"

Rosa didn't say anything, but she was still frowning.

Seeing this, Miranda staggered her way to the sofa, looking very lonely.

"What's wrong?" Rosa hurriedly sat down, holding her shoulder to comfort her.

Miranda looked at Rosa, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

"Miranda..."

Miranda pouted and smiled bitterly out of a sudden. "I'm heartbroken. My Jake... is married!"

"What?" Rosa was surprised.

"He got married when he was abroad, and his wife is already pregnant!" Miranda burst into tears.
