Rosiley was just joking. She lowered her head to have the soup as she finished. She did not notice that Juliet's expression instantly changed when she heard her words.
Juliet frowned and pondered for a moment before asking, "Rosiley, who do you think he will go with?"
"What?" She raised her head. Seeing Juliet's serious face, Rosiley immediately realized what she was thinking. She was amused, "Juliet, don't tell me that you mind Payton bringing a date."
"I do mind.” Juliet replied calmly.
Rosiley laughed, "Juliet, you are just pretending to be lovers. You have no right to prevent him from taking anyone to the party."
"But I like him."
That was a good reason.
Rosiley smiled and shook her head, "Juliet, I know you like him. But in spite of the contract, you are single. He can go to the party with anyone
he likes. Do you understand?"
Juliet was annoyed and put with a long face, "Rosiley, are you my best friend or not?”
"Yes." Rosiley nodded.
"Then why are you speaking for Payton?” Almost everything she said was from Payton's point of view, which made Juliet upset.
Rosiley raised her eyebrows. "I'm not speaking for him. I'm just being objective."
To tell the truth, she didn't want Juliet to fall for Payton before they knew about his attitude. Otherwise, if Payton ended up being with someone else, Juliet would not be able to bear it.
With such concerns, she would rather be a sober person to remind Juliet when romance went to her head.
Juliet bit her lip and glared at Rosiley discontentedly.
Apparently, she didn't understand Rosiley.
Rosiley sighed and smiled, "Juliet, you like Payton. I understand. But it's just your feelings. There's no proof that he likes you back. So you have to calm down and accept everything he did as a single man. No matter who he flirts with, it's his freedom. You have no right to interfere."
"What do you mean by I have no right to interfere? I don't want him to be intimate with other girls."
Juliet was high-handed and self-centered. If she liked someone, she wanted him to like her and only her. And other women should not get close to him.
"Are you his girlfriend?" Rosiley stared at her and asked casually.
"I..." Juliet avoided her gaze and bit her lip angrily.
This time, she could not answer her question confidently. Rosiley paused and then said earnestly, "Juliet, if you meddle in Payton's personal affairs as his fake girlfriend, he would only think that you are nosy and even annoying. Therefore, keep distance. It's good for both of you."
Juliet did not say anything.
Rosiley smiled and continued, "If you like him, you should cater to his likes and make him feel that you are a good girl. Gradually, he'll fall in love with you."
Juliet let out a long sigh and said disappointedly, “But how do I know whether he will like me?”
"Juliet, do you think he didn't see it?"
Juliet looked up at her, who raised her eyebrows and smiled meaningfully.
Did Rosiley mean Payton had known that she liked him?
"You are going to the Elton's with Juliet tonight?” Maddox looked at the man sitting on the sofa in surprise.
