Chapter 1101 Being Framed (2)
"I know you're not that kind of person,” Elliot gently patted the woman's hand and continued her words, seeing Rose release her grip on his hand.
Locking at the woman lying on the bed, Elliot felt regret and self-blame. He gently touched Rose's hair. "Rose... it's my fault. I shouldn't have doubtedvou. I know you wouldn't do those things, but..."
He didn't continue but sigh
In fact, Elliot was very dissatisfied; even a hint of jealousy filled his heart
When he saw Lawrence dancing intimately with Rose in the dance floor full of smiles, he had to try hard to restrain himself.If it weren't for being angry at that time, he wouldn't have said those hurtful words to her.
But these thoughts were not something he wanted to admit or bring up.
Elliot tock a dry towel and put it on Rose's forehead to cool down while finding fever-reducing medicine. He sat at the bedside, holding half a cup ofwarm water.
He helped her sit up against him and called out softly, "Rose, take your medicine first. Take good rest after taking your medicine.”This was a gentle side of him that had never appeared in front of Rose before, but unfortunately she couldn't see it while she was unconscious."Rose? You have a fever; take your medicine first before sleeping.”
Elliot comforted Rose with a few words, successfully getting her to take the medicine. He helped her lie down and changed the damp cloth on herforehead several times. Thankfully, her fever began to subside in the middle of the night, and Elliot, sitting by her bedside, finally breathed a sigh ofrelief. His face also softened.
It is now 12:53 AM; Elliot had no sleepiness whatsoever as his gaze was somewhat dazedly staring at the person lying on the bed.
Rose, lying on the bed, appeared peaceful and delicate due to the subsided fever. Her features were serene and beautiful, with a hint of vulnerabilitybrought on by her illness.
The usual Rose in front of him was lively and spirited. Despite often opposing him and even... disliking him, he had never really taken it to heart
Elliot gazed at the sleeping woman, and he couldn't help but show a tender and doting expression, his gaze fixed on Rose and unable to move away.In a trance, he remembered the first time he had met her so long ago.
It had been in a dimly lit bar, with various lights flashing and illuminating the people inside. Elliot could never forget that moment when they first met
At that time, Rose was still in college. Because of her family's financial situation, she had to work outside of school to pay for her tuition and livingexpenses. Through a recommendation from one of her senior classmates, she started working part-time at the most famous bar in town where thesalary was high but came with various pressures and difficulties.
Rose had never been to a bar before and on her first day at work as a waitress serving drinks to private rooms, she encountered trouble. Once insideone room, she realized that all the men were middle-aged types accompanied by young women who had good figures and looks.
Several men made inappropriate moves towards Rose which made her feel uneasy. Before leaving the room, one overweight man grabbed Rose'shand just as she put down his drink bottle and pulled her into his arms.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Rose was shocked but immediatelystruggled out-of his grasp only forhim to holdonto her tightly, saying,"Such a pretty lady delivering drinks?How about spending tonight withme? [give you five times your’salary. " The other men in the-toomturned their attention towards Roselike vultures eyeing their prey,making Rose feel disgusted. Contentbelongs to NovelDrama.Org

"I'm here delivering drinks, not selling myself" With an icy expression on her face, she tried to leave but was stopped in the private room."Isn't it all same here? Beautiful girl just spend tonight with us; we will give you more money." He said while other men chimed in agreement."Come over here! What are you pretending for? We know what kind of woman you are! Serving Mr. Young well has great benefits!"
Rose shivered and almost wanted to vomit, but she was unconsciously solemn and cautious, and before she could think of a countermeasure, theman had come over and dragged her to the sofa, while pulling her clothes
Her strength couldn't be compared with that of a middle-aged man. Soon the neckline of her work attire was torn, revealing a large area of her skin.Rose gritted her teeth and kicked the man hard. Taking advantage of everyone's stunned silence, she rushed outside.
As soon as she went out, she bumped into someone within a few steps. Her body fell backwards and hit her head, making her feel dizzy anddisoriented. She ended up sitting on the ground.
She looked up and saw a man in front of her who was too handsome. His facial features seemed to glow under the light, but he lowered his head andlocked down at her with a cold and indifferent gaze.
Rose has no intention of thinking about anything else at this moment, as her life and innocence are still at stake!
So she immediately grabbed theman's pants Jeg to seek help, hervoice feigning composure but Ntrembling underneath. "Sir, pleaseshelp met There are people inside.”5H)tryingto assault mel I managed toescape, but they won't let me go!Rlease help me, and I'l bessure torepay you!" Content belongs toNovelDrama.Org
Elliot remained silent. He always disliked meddling in other people's business, and he didn't even know this woman, sc he wouldn't help her. "Let go!”Rose gripped his pants leg even tighter, her knuckles turning white with the force.
A few footsteps could be heard not far behind her.
"As long as you can help me, sir, I promise to do anything for you! Consider it as if I owe you a favor!"
Rose naturally knew that the man in front of her was different from the men behind her, at least she didn't see any evil desire in his eyes
Elliot felt that the woman was too bold at the time. She didn't even know who he was, yet she dared to ask for his help so casually.
But he lowered his head and fell into her clear, bright deer-like eyes, which were anxious but also faintly hopeful
It was so clear that he had never seen a woman with such beautiful eyes before, and at that moment, he suddenly softened.
