Chapter 116
“Rose, this is a good opportunity for you to make a comeback!”
Jean squeezed Rosalind excitedly. “You should think of a way now to make Justin come to
you right away. You have to let him see this so he can completely give up on that little
whore, Anna!”
“But Justin is working now. He rarely went shopping with me on weekends in the past. It’s
even less likely that he will come out now. Besides…”
Rosalind’s eyes darkened, and she lowered her voice and said, “I just regained favor with
Justin by saying that I have severe depression. I need to behave these days and capture
his heart, so I can’t be reckless and cause trouble again.”
“You’re so stupid!”
Jean jabbed Rosalind’s forehead with her sharp nails. “He’s at work, so it would be foolish
for you to ask him to accompany you shopping. But if you have a valid reason, it will be a
good opportunity to get closer to him! You can’t keep being considerate. Men won’t like
you if you are too obedient. They like a challenge. He will only feel important if you call
him when you have trouble or an emergency. That way, he will feel proud and superior
that you rely on him.”
Rosalind’s eyes flickered. She actually disagreed with her mother’s words.
In the past, when her father was powerful and the family was well off, her mother clung to

even kept several lovers and disrespected Jean in front of the servants at home.
Jean had no choice but to endure all those grievances just to keep her title as Mrs. Gold.
She was 50 years old, but the Gold family fell into decline, and her husband was suffering
from chronic illness. Now, Jean only had the status of Mrs. Gold, but she was reduced to a
laughingstock in the elite circle. Her whole life had been wasted.
“I’ll call Justin later and tell him that you are shopping alone and that I couldn’t contact
you. He knows that you’re not emotionally stable recently, so if he loves you, he will drop
everything and come find you.”
Jean held Rosalind’s shoulders and smirked. “When the time comes, Justin will hate Anna
even more when he sees his best friend hooking up with his ex-wife!”
After a meeting, Justin returned to his office and received a call from Jean.
“Mrs. Gold.” His tone was cold.
“Mr. Salvador! Has Rose contacted you?” Jean asked nervously.
“No, what happened?”
“Rose said she was feeling a little down, so she wanted to go out for a walk. I wanted to
accompany her, but she refused. She said she didn’t want me to treat her as a patient, so
I didn’t follow her… But it’s been a few hours now, and I couldn’t get through to her on the
phone. When I called her again, her phone was turned off. Do you think something
happened to her?”
Justin’s heart clenched when he recalled that Rosalind had severe depression. He asked in
a deep voice, “Did Rose tell you where she went?”
“She said she wanted to go shopping in the newly opened department store near the KS
World Hotel, but she didn’t say anything else.”
“Okay, I understand. I’m going to find her now. She’ll be fine.”
After hanging up the phone, Justin frowned, grabbed his suit jacket, and walked out.
“Get the car.”
Justin arrived at the mall as quickly as possible. He walked around in a hurry, looking for
Rosalind while calling her.
Finally, the call was connected. Rosalind’s soft voice came through. “Justin…”
“Rose, where are you? I’m at Century Mall now!” Justin’s voice was filled with worry.
“I feel a tightness in my chest, so I’m sitting in the elevator lobby on the second floor.”
“Don’t move. I’ll be right there!”
Justin strode over and found Rosalind as quickly as possible.
“Justin!”
Rosalind’s eyes were teary as she stood up and threw herself at Justin. “You’re here… I’m
fine. I don’t feel uncomfortable anymore.”
“Your mother called you earlier. Why didn’t you answer the phone?” Justin asked with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmconcern.
Rosalind hurriedly found an excuse and said, “My phone ran out of battery, so I was
searching for a power bank to recharge it.”
“Next time you go out, you must get someone to accompany you, okay? Don’t go out
alone.” Justin took a deep breath and held her.
“Justin, I only want you to accompany me. I don’t want anyone else.” Rosalind rubbed her
face against the man’s chest and snickered in her heart.
Rosalind was glad that she listened to her mother this time. This showed that Justin still
cared about her, and she was the most important person to him.
At this moment, they could hear faint whispers around them.
“Oh, look at that young couple. That girl is so beautiful. They look like movie stars!”
“That young man is quite handsome too. He has a really good figure. It’s obvious that he’s
rich.”
Justin heard it, but he was not a curious person, so he did not look back.
Rosalind, on the other hand, suddenly gasped in shock.
“Justin, look! What a coincidence!”
Justin looked back expressionlessly. He was stunned by what he saw.
The next second, his charming eyes turned red, as if two balls of flame were ignited in
them.
