It was basically giving those beastmen a basic safety net-either food or wages. Even so, it was a huge blessing for them.
Monica laughed and called out, “Rosalic, you’re the best!”
Rosalie chuckled and lightly punched her.
“You brat! Stop laughing at me for no reason!”
Monica laughed again and said loudly, “I didn’t say anything wrong!
“You might already be pregnant with a cub!”
Thud!
Something dropped behind them. When Rosalie turned, she saw Cameron standing frozen.
A wooden bowl had fallen into a puddle. Before she could say anything, Cameron rushed over, scooped her up, and started spinning her around.
Monica watched with a teasing grin, making Rosalie so embarrassed that she buried her face in Cameron’s neck.
“Put me down right now!”
Rosalie gritted her teeth as she spoke.
Cameron set her down gently, his eyes glued to her belly.
Forgetting anyone else was around, he leaned in and planted a loud kiss on her cheek.
He tried for another, but Rosalie finally slapped her hand over his mouth.
“Enough! It’s a misunderstanding!”
After she explained, Cameron couldn’t hide his disappointment. He’d really thought she was
pregnant.
He bent down to pick up the bowl and muttered, “I’ll wash this and get another bowl of water.”
Once Cameron left, Rosalie turned to Monica. “We still need to discuss this. Is your mom free tomorrow? How about we meet at the House of Delicacies?”
Monica smiled and agreed, and they set the meeting for noon at the entrance the next day.

Chapter 94 Going Out

#Finished
Rosalie had been itching for a reason to go into the city. Ever since she announced she wanted to marry Julien, her husbands had been glued to her side. No matter where she went, they were watching.
Luckily, Monica came on business. Rosalie could use the chance to get into the city, borrow money from Julien, and track down the owner of that lost sum. Whoever lost that much money must be panicking.
The next day, Rosalie slung a basket over her shoulder, filled with ingredients for pork stew- enough to last half a month.
She hadn’t even stepped out when Leon casually blocked the doorway. His sharp eyes scanned her. “Where are you heading?”
She had a solid reason, so she didn’t back down.
“Monica’s mom invited me to the House of Delicacies. We’re talking about paddy planting.”
Leon studied her for a moment, then called out, “Elijah, Micah! Matriarch is leaving. Stay with her!”
The two immediately came to her side.
Elijah was on her left, radiating silent pressure. Micah was on her right, calm and gentle. Sandwiched between them, Rosalie felt like a prisoner.
Even while eating, the two sat on either side of her. Rosalie mechanically chewed a bite of food, her eyes dull and unfocused.
With them watching that closely, how was she supposed to slip away and find Julien?
It was all Leon’s fault. He knew she wouldn’t get mad at them, so he deliberately sent them to follow her.
Rosalie ate quietly, secretly planning her escape.
Suddenly, Monica cried out. Rosalie rushed over. “What’s wrong?”
