Chapter 439
But Fiona quickly changed the subject. “But you see, Calvin once mistakenly thought you were the person he was looking for. So I hope you can keep your distance from him to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. After all, we are family.”
Rosalie chuckled suddenly. “Unnecessary misunderstandings? What kind of misunderstandings are you talking about?”
“Just like last time at the film studio, you and Calvin had some physical contact, and it could easily lead to misunderstandings,” Fiona said, feigning shyness. “Calvin and I are together now. We haven’t officially announced it to the public yet but in the future…”
Fiona intentionally left her sentence unfinished, leaving room for speculation.
“I’m not interested in Calvin. Fiona, you don’t have to worry,” Rosalie said.
“But wouldn’t it be better if you could avoid appearing in front of hi
as much as possible? Or… I can offer you money, and you can develop elsewhere. Open a shop or something. Wouldn’t life be easier than it is now? We’re family, and I’m financially comfortable right now. How about I give you 400 thousand dollars?” Fiona said.
“400 thousand dollars?” Rosalie thought, finding it somewhat amusing. She suspected that all the money came from Calvin. Fiona, the usurper, was using Calvin’s money to drive her, the rightful owner, away from Strico.
“Does Fiona think I’m easy to fool? Or is Fiona just too greedy?” Rosalie wondered.
“If Calvin finds out one day you’ve deceived him, do you think he would take the money back?” Rosalie suddenly asked.
Fiona’s face went pale for a moment, and she tried to regain her composure. “What are you talking about? I didn’t deceive Calvin.”
“Was it really you who saved Calvin back then on the mountain?” Rosalie stared at her.
Fiona forced herself to remain calm. “Of course. Is there any doubt about that?”
“Was it really you who saved him back then?” Rosalie replied.
“What do you mean by that? Who else would it be if not me?” Fiona insisted.
Rosalie looked at Fiona mockingly. “Fiona, do you think I’m easy to fool? Do you think I’d believe whatever you say? Back then, the person who saved Calvin wasn’t you.”
Fiona’s face grew even paler. Then she looked at Rosalie incredulously and snapped, “If it wasn’t me, then was it you? Do you think that just because I told you about everything that happened on the mountain when we were kids, you could claim it as your experience? You have already made Calvin believe you saved him before, and now you want to cause more trouble?”
“Fiona, I’ve regained my lost memories, so you don’t have to say so much in front of me. The more you twist the truth, the more ridiculous you seem,” Rosalie said indifferently.
Fiona’s body stiffened, and her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at the person before her. “What… What are you saying… You… Have you regained your memories?”
“Yes, I have. How else would I know that you’re so skilled at distorting the truth, Fiona?” Rosalie replied sarcastically.
“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Fiona stubbornly declared. Regardless of what happened, she wouldn’t admit to the impersonation. “Rosalie, are you trying to have a go with Calvin now that you’ve broken up with Jonathan? You’ve gone
too far!”
“Then why don’t I explain everything to Calvin right now? What do you think he will do then?” Rosalie said coldly.
“You wouldn’t dare,” Fiona panicked. If Rosalie revealed the truth, everything she had gained would be in vain.
“Why won’t I dare?” Rosalie found it amusing. “I don’t see any reason to hide what I’ve done.”,
In an instant, Fiona’s whole body was cold and trembled. A kind of extreme fear permeated her body.
“So, Fiona, you should be careful when talking to me. Considering that we’re both Granny’s granddaughters, let me remind you that Calvin isn’t as easy to fool as you might think. Sometimes, excessive greed can leave you with nothing,” Rosalie warned
With that, Rosalie got up, paid for her coffee, and left the cafe.
Meanwhile, Fiona was still sitting in her seat, trying to calm herself with a sip of coffee, but she was trembling and couldn’t even pick up the cup.
She pondered, ‘What am I going to do? Rosalie has regained her memory! If she tells Calvin…
No! I must find a way to keep Calvin from believing Rosalie’s words!
There must… be a way!’
After Rosalie left the coffee shop, she took a bus to where Matilda and Aiden were currently staying. She found Amelia there, and they were packing up their belongings.
When Aiden saw Rosalie, he threw himself happily into her arms and told her he would be starting kindergarten in the
summer.
“Have you found a kindergarten yet?” Rosalie asked, looking at Amelia.
