Chapter 200 It Was Somewhat Hilarious

Rosalie had just gotten off work when she heard the employees of the research institute discuss Byronand Wendy‘s relationship.

“Mr. Lawrence is so sweet. He took care of his fiancee the entire night yesterday. Even my boyfriendmight not be able to do what he did.”

“The key is that he‘s handsome and rich, while his fiancee is really pretty! She looks a little like our Dr.Jacobs, so she must be a beauty!”

A bunch of research institute employees were discussing as they walked. When they saw Rosalie, theybade her goodbye. “Bye, Dr. Jacobs.“.

Rosalie said her goodbyes to each and every one of them with a smile. However, when she overheardwhat they were talking about, she felt like something was amiss. Byron took care of his fiancee thewhole night yesterday? The thing was, Byron was with her the entire night. When did he meet up withWendy, then? Just when she felt like something weird was going on, Yves rushed in from behind herand asked, “Are you free tonight? Wanna have dinner together?”

Rosalie snapped out of her thoughts and smiled apologetically at him. “I gotta rush off to get the kids,so I don‘t think I can make it. Rain check? When this project is over, I‘ll treat everyone to a good meal.”

When Yves heard her reply, a tinge of regret flashed through his eyes. Alas, he did not say anythingmore about that and just talked about the project as he walked out of the research institute with her..novelbin

Since Rosalie did not drive that day, she stood by the roadside and tried to flag a cab down. Yves‘ carslowly stopped in front of her. “You didn‘t drive today?” Rosalie nodded. “Where are you heading? I‘ll

drop you off. I don‘t have anything to do tonight anyway. It‘ll be hard for you to get a cab from here.”Yves‘ smile was warm.

Rosalie hesitated for a while. However, when she looked at the time, it was indeed time to pick the littlefellas up from kindergarten. She hesitated no more, opened the door, and went into the car.

The moment she sat down, another phone call from Quentin arrived again. He was asking about theproject‘s progress. Rosalie gave him a summary. After she was done with the phone call, Rosalie wasabout to keep her phone away when a push notification popped up with the headline

[CEO of Lawrence Corporation Sent Fiancee To The Hospital and Stayed The Night With Her.]

After reading the headline, Rosalie could not help but think about what had happened the night before.She then related it to what the institute employees were talking about. She did not know what cameover her as she clicked on the notification.

Two blurry photos appeared before her once the page had loaded.

When she saw the photos, Rosalie was stunned. She did not even need to zoom in on the photos toknow that the woman in the photos was her.

In the first photo, she was barely conscious due to the high fever she had. She thought the photo musthave been taken when Byron carried her all the way from the car to the hospital.

When she woke up in the hospital, she was still held in the man‘s embrace. She never thought that thetwo of them would look so intimate in the photo. The man‘s embrace looked like he was being verycareful with her as well. The second phot was taken when she was carrying Estie into the car withByron standing by her side.

They had no idea where the photographer was since no one had any realization of anything at all.

The reporter who wrote the article clearly could not distinguish between Wendy and herself, hence themisunderstanding.

It was fortunate that the photos were blurry. Unless it was people who knew them well, no one wouldrealize that the woman in the photos was actually her. Rosalie frowned as she scrolled downward. Shesaw the flurry of comments talking about how envious they were of her, saying how nice Byron was toher.

They had no idea that she did not want that kind of ‘nice‘ treatment from him at all. After reading thecomments for a while more to make sure no one knew that the woman in the photos was not Wendy,Rosalie kept her phone away perplexedly. She had no intention of clarifying anything since she wantedto avoid trouble whenever possible.

All she felt was that this misunderstanding was somewhat hilarious.
