Getting more and more worried, Rosiley played the voice message Juliet sent to her.
"Rosiley, something serious happened. Why aren't you answering the phone? You're killing me!"
Juliet sounded anxious and upset. Rosiley's frowned deepened.
"Rosiley, your affair with Bertram is spreading on the Internet. It's said that you were having a date in the car at night. There are videos and photos. What happened?"
Affair? With Bertram? Date in the car?
Rosiley's eyes widened in shock.
‘It can't be that, can it?’
She just went downstairs to meet Bertram. And then not only was she photographed, but she also left sources for those paparazzi?
Rosiley didn't know whether to laugh or cry at such nonsense.
So it must be the reason why Payton and Maddox had been in such a hurry.
Rosiley couldn't help but laugh out loud. She looked up inadvertently and found Sachin standing at the bathroom door.
She froze instantly. The two looked at each other quietly.
The room fell into a deathly silence.
After a long stretch, Rosiley managed to force a smile and asked tentatively, “Sachin, did you hear it?”
Instead of answering her, he just stared at her significantly.
She bit her lip, wanting to explain, but she didn't know where to start.
In the end, she could only sigh softly and say calmly, "It’s not true.”
Sachin stared at her for a while before saying softly, "Come down after the shower.’
With that, he turned around and walked out of the room.
The door was gently closed, and the room fell silent.
Rosiley let out a heavy sigh of frustration for not being able to explain.
Payton, who was sitting in the living room waiting, seemed restless. He turned around and looked upstairs from time to time.
Maddox chuckled at that and made fun of him, "Bro, why are you even more nervous than Sachin?"
“Aren't you nervous?" Payton asked him with an unhappy look on his handsome face. "You've watched the video on the news today. Rosiley did get in his car. Even if it isn't an affair, isn't it inappropriate for her to do that at such a late night?”
He was not impressed by that. "She and Bertram are acquaintances. They are friends, so it's fine to meet each other. Don't think too much."
"But..."
Just as Payton was about to argue, he saw Maddox standing up.
"Sachin," Maddox turned to Sachin, who was walking downstairs.
Hearing the name, Payton stood up immediately. He turned around and shouted anxiously, "Bro, something serious happened.”
After casting him a glance, Sachin walked to sit opposite them and shot a sharp gaze on the two.
"What happened?" He asked.
"Rosiley has an affair with another guy. She..."
Maddox wished he could give Payton a good slap on his head when Payton said so. He didn't even know how to talk properly?
After cast Payton a fierce glare, he reached out to cover his mouth and finished what he had left unfinished, "The paparazzi got pictures of Rosiley's getting into Bertram's car. Boss, you know how paparazzi like to make up stories from pictures. So it was not an affair. It was just a simple meeting of friends.”
Rosiley, who hurried downstairs, almost burst into tears when she heard what Maddox said. She knew he deserved her kindness.
At such a critical moment, he stood out and spoke for her.
