Julian almost bit his tongue when she called out)
Rosalind sneered ||
“Did you change your wind?
His face was black as thunder.
Tine! I agree to your terms!”
Rosalind Aster palled out her phone and tamed on the cAMETAL |||
“Start now.”
Julian’s chest heaved with rage. “You didn’t say you were going to reened thisr
Rosalind parsed her lips, annoyed.]
“Goodbye then
Rosalindr
palian grined his teeth hard
Rosalind gave him a mocking smile and pointed the camera back at him
She teased him
Tis your face. That murderous look might scare off the reporters watching this”
julian almost shouted again ||
He was so angry.]
Hr swallowed his anger anyway and forced the words out!]]
When we found out our real sister Rosalind was switched at birth, we panicked. Lia had been raised in the Aster family since she was little. She’s always been our sister.
Lia insisted on bringing our real sister bark. We were curious too, so we went with Lia to pick Rosalind up-
Lia used to lir engaged to Peregrine. The wedding was already set. But with Rosalind just found and the family in chans, Lia wanted to take on some of the premute]
“She did something stupid and jumped out of the car
“she thought it could buy june and delay the wedding so the family could focus on houding with Rosalind []
I she miscalculated and passed out.”
His Lor was filed with shame
No one expected Mr. Slaw’s illness to get worse. The Shaw family didn’t want to postpone the wedding. We had no choice but to send Rosalind in her place |
Truth is, it was always supposed in be Rosalind who was engaged to Peregrine 1)
He gritted his treil and said what for least waited to adult)
So, lia wasn’t pushed out of the car. And Rosalind didn’t scheme to take her place.
Rosalind nodded
It was a perfect whitewash ||
Everyone was turned into a victim |
No damage was done to the Asters‘ reputation at all.
She stopped recording and put her phone away.
Julian couldn’t hold it in anymore. He stormed forward and grabbed her clothes. “Let’s go. We need to save Liar
Resaland didn’t move. She raised her hand and grabbed his wrist.]
Julian’s face went pale, sweat breaking out on his forehead. “That hurts.“||
Only then did Rosalind let go
Mr. Jullan, if you want help, act like you’re asking for it.-[]
She had forgotten how ruthless Julian had been when he forced her into that wedding
He even smashed a glass on purpose and stabbed her with it
Julian was fuming. “What do you want now?“]
Rosalind said. “When I got married, I had nothing. No financial support at all.
jalan hadn’t expected her to just ask for money straight up.
I knew it. You bumpkin girl just thought about the money
Rosalind raised a brow. “Well, since you’re so above money. how about giving it all to me? |
Julian didn’t know how to reply]
He took a few deep breaths, trying to hold his temper.|||
“What on earth do you want?”
Rosalind pointed to the villa. That one.
Julian thought, “She’s like stealing it away!
“No way he snapped.
Rosalind shot back, “You go to the hospital and expect free treatment? |
julian stared at her sing face. If his angry looks could kill, she’d be in a thousand pieces by now
TÜ pay you, but not wall the villa. ||
Hosalind went straight for the point. You still have money was targeted on what little pride he had left
The Aster Group was mainly in the tech business. Not long ago, they got hit by hackers, their systems crashed, and even their hardware started acting up
The company was a mess
If they had received the million dollars from the shaw family, maybe the company would’ve pulled through ||
But the money was gone ||
die was still scrambling for money, and his bands were shor
She added coldly. “Honestly, you don’t seem that desperate to save Län. So take your time. Come back when you are.
palian clenched his fists and slammed one into the doorframe.||
“Tine The villa’s yourst“||
Rosalind tell a dull ache in her heart,
“Thalia is worth a lot
pullan pointed a trembling finger at her. “Don’t play games with

Rosalind gave a cool smile. “Let’s head to the property office and do the transfer.|||
Julian didn’t want to do it. But for Thalia, he gave in||
He told Edgar and Peregrine about his decision. ||
Edgar couldn’t reveal the truth in front of Peregrine. He had to accept what was done.]
Omer everything, was signed over, Rosalind pushed

F
The Aster family was bankrupt, but i they were generous when it came to Thalia
she had the best ward and the top medicine ||
When they knew that Rosalind was going to treat her, even her three super busy older brothers showed up
When they found out Rosalind asked for a whole villa as payment, their expressions turned into a mix of disgust and resentment.[]
But since they needed her help, they stayed silent, cursing her in their mind for being so ruthless
Rosalind sat beside the bed and had the nurse prep a few syringes
They had the strongest effect this time
That had dared to play games with her. It was time for Thalia to pay the price.
She slowly lifted Thalla’s hand and stabbed a thick Injection needle hard into her fingertip.]

Instantly awake, Thalia shot upright. Her face was pale and scrunched in pain
The doctors nearby were

Rosalind stepped back and put her hands on Peregrine’s wheelchair

Peregrine didn’t know what to say ||
