Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 564

Roseanne listened and was genuinely happy for him. "Alright, then I'm going all out!"

"Let's do it!"

Despite her enthusiasm, Roseanne ended up ordering just two meat dishes, one veggie, and a soup.

Halley was incredulous. "...That's it?"

"Yep, that's all."

"No way, we're adding two more dishes."

"No need! We can't finish all that! Bro, you're really out to splurge today, huh?"

Offering herself up for the financial slaughter.

Halley chuckled, "Getting fleeced by my little sis once in a while isn't the worst thing."

"Seriously, we don't need more. Let's not waste."

"Alright, your call."

Halley then ordered a couple of beers.

Soon, the food arrived, and the siblings started eating and chatting—

"How's school been? Settling in alright? You've got my number saved, right? If you need anything, just give me a call."

Being in a different city meant they had to have each other's backs.

Roseanne replied, "It's been okay. Ran into some issues, but I've managed to handle them so far."

"That's good to hear. Let's eat..."

Halley encouraged her with a smile.

Midway through the meal, his phone rang. He glanced at the screen and said, "Anne, you go ahead and eat. I need to take this call outside."

"Alright."

Five minutes later, Halley came back and sat down across from her. Roseanne immediately noticed something was off.

"Bro, you should eat too."
