Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Can You Delay Your Divorce With Rose?

When Rose saw James, her first instinct was to leave.

James took a few steps after her, sounding slightly irritated.

"Rose, didn’t you see me?"

It felt as though Rose was avoiding him at all costs, and for some reason, that made him uncomfortable.

"I saw you," Rose replied, forced to stop.

"Then why are you leaving?"

"Who wouldn’t avoid a walking plague?"

"..."

James had always considered himself sharp-tongued, but Rose was more than capable of holding her own.

For a moment, he didn’t know how to respond.

"There are quite a few people here today working in AI healthcare. If G.S. is serious about pursuing that project—which, frankly, doesn’t look very promising—you should take the opportunity to network and learn from them."

His advice was genuinely well-intentioned.

But Rose laughed. "Why do you think it’s unlikely to succeed? Are you trying to help me, or are you just looking down on me?"

James was momentarily speechless.

Had he said the wrong thing again?

Rose couldn’t be bothered arguing with him.

She turned and walked away.

James rubbed the space between his eyebrows, feeling inexplicably frustrated.

When Samantha approached, she noticed that James was still staring at Rose’s retreating figure.

Just moments earlier, he hadn’t even acknowledged her.

For some reason, that made her uneasy.

"Mr. Taylor? What were you talking to Rose about?"

James snapped out of his thoughts and looked at her.

"Nothing."

It was obvious he had no intention of sharing the details.

A trace of disappointment darkened Samantha’s eyes.

"Do you remember when we were at New Hope? I told you there was something I wanted to say."

James nodded. "Didn’t you end up saying it was nothing?"

At the time, Samantha had chosen not to bring it up, and he hadn’t pressed her.

Samantha glanced in Rose’s direction. "Actually, I hesitated because I didn’t want to upset you. But I also don’t want Rose to deceive you."

James frowned slightly. "What do you mean?"

Samantha sighed softly.

"Actually..."

She lowered her voice. "The woman who seduced Mr. Robinson and tried to steal your sister’s fiancé might be Rose."

The relaxed expression on James’s face instantly disappeared.

"What?"

His voice turned cold.

Samantha hesitated before continuing. "A few days ago, Ryan and I went to Hong Kong to meet with several companies. I ran into Rose and Mr. Robinson there. It seems Rose plans to start a relationship with him as soon as she’s completely finished with Ryan. In fact, Mr. Robinson even intends to marry her."

The revelation was difficult to process.

James stood frozen for several seconds.

His expression became increasingly grim.

A sharp pain twisted in his chest.

The faint affection he had gradually developed for Rose shattered in an instant when weighed against his younger sister’s future.

"I didn’t want to say anything," Samantha added sincerely, "but I couldn’t stand by and watch you be deceived by her."
