See You Never, Mr. Lamont by Coral

Chapter 164 The Bracelet

Rosalie also happened to hear Thomas say that he wanted to invite her for tea.

Did Thomas invite her for tea for no reason? Could it be that Elva did something?

She immediately picked up her phone and called Elva, but it was busy the whole time.

“You go change your clothes and we’ll go over there together later,” Dempsey said, feeling quite disgusted by

Rosalie’s dusty attire.

Actually, Rosalie’s clothes were not cheap, but after staying in the hospital for so long and sleeping on the ground

for a night, they inevitably became dusty.

Rosalie glanced at her clothes, and her eyes turned red.

When has Miss Clayton, as a member of the Clayton family, ever been in such a sorry state?

Thinking about the disgusting things Arlene did to her, Rosalie said with a sense of injustice, “Where can I even

change my clothes? I can’t even enter my own house now. Yesterday, when I tried to go in to have some water,

Arlene immediately kicked me out.”

Speaking of this, she glanced at Dempsey with eager eyes, but saw him frowning and adding fuel to the fire, “I had

nowhere to sleep, so I had to sleep on the floor for a night. Even if she is my own sister, I made a huge mistake, but

does that mean I can’t even enter the house?”

“She said it was all your request. Daddy, is it really all your request?”

Upon hearing these words, Dempsey’s eyes flickered, neither admitting nor denying.

“Arlene is straightforward, you don’t need to argue with her.” He finished speaking and smiled slightly, “I’ll take you

in.”

Upon hearing these words, Rosalie’s heart “thumped” in her chest.

Dempsey’s intentions toward that despicable person were clear; he no longer intended to stand up for her.

Just then, Arlene also came out and saw Dempsey. She sweetly called out, “Dad,” and warmly walked up to hug

Dempsey’s arm, just like an ordinary father and daughter. Dempsey smiled kindly.

Seeing this scene, Rosalie was stunned.

She used to be afraid even to get close to Dempsey, let alone hug his

arm.

When Dempsey was young, he was very violent. Although he seemed to have turned over a new leaf, his

personality had not actually changed. Whenever under great pressure, he would hit her. She said she respected

Dempsey, but it was more like an instinctive fear.

Seeing Arlene like this now, Rosalie thought she had made a mistake.

Arlene seemed to have just noticed Rosalie and greeted her warmly, saying, “Sister, you’re here too! Come in

quickly. I just made lunch, and I even made your favorite Kung Pao chicken.”

She even knows the dishes she loves to eat, this woman is extraordinary!

Rosalie took a good look at Arlene for the first time and saw her smiling as if nothing had happened, which made

her feel disgusted.

“No need, I’m not hungry,” she said to Dempsey without entering the house. “I have thought about your suggestion

to marry Hugh last time, and I’m willing to…”

“Ha ha…” Arlene covered her mouth and laughed, “Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Just because you

are willing, it doesn’t mean Hugh is willing. Besides, both Hugh and I have met each other’s parents. Hugh’s mother

really likes me and even gave me the family heirloom. Look, here it is.”

She raised her hand, showing off the sparkling translucent emerald green bracelet, and smiled with an innocent

face.

When Rosalie saw that jade bracelet, her eyes turned red.

The quality of this bracelet is clearly glass type, and with this emerald green color, it would easily fetch 150

thousand dollars, and if it were to be put up for auction, it could go even higher.

I didn’t expect the Darwin family to be so wealthy. They directly gave the heirloom bracelet to Arlene. Just the

thought that the bracelet should have been worn on her own hand, Rosalie became jealous and trembled all over.

If it weren’t for Arlene, Hugh would have no choice but to choose himself.

It’s all Arlene’s fault! If it weren’t for her, the plan wouldn’t have been disrupted.

Dempsey glanced at the bracelet in Arlene’s hand and smiled with satisfaction, “This bracelet is nice. Actually, the

Darwin family has always been well-off, just low-key. It’s good that Hugh’s family likes you, so you won’t be bullied

when you marry into them in the future.”

Arlene raised her chin and smiled proudly, “With my dad around, who would dare to bully me!”

around, I will never let them bully my precious daughter.”

Seeing this scene, Rosalie’s heart sank to the bottom.

She realized that the way Dempsey and Arlene interacted was more like a real father and daughter, while she and

Dempsey were more like a boss and subordinate.

After so many years, the way she interacted with Dempsey had

changed and could never go back. He had beaten her since childhood, so she couldn’t feel close to him at all.

Rosalie cast a sorrowful gaze, filled with both envy and jealousy.

“Your sister has already gotten engaged to Hugh, so let’s not bring up that matter again. Didn’t Thomas invite you

for tea? I think those kids from the Friedan family are not bad either…” Dempsey squinted his eyes, and everyone

could hear the calculations going on in his mind.

Rosalie remained calm on the surface but was feeling nervous inside.

She did not dare to have any contact with any member of the Friedan family.

Just the thought of becoming sisters-in-law with people like Claudia and Elva made me feel like dying.

She glanced at Dempsey, but didn’t say the retort out loud. For now, she would appease him and wait until they

arrived at the Friedan family to speak.

If she could negotiate the cooperation again, Dempsey wouldn’t dare to do anything to her.

Rosalie quickly changed her clothes. When Dempsey walked out with her, Arlene curiously asked, “Where are you

guys going?”

“Go to the Friedan’s manor.

“The Friedan family?” Arlene’s eyes lit up.

The Friedan family, the wealthiest in Wellfort, had long been known to her. Moreover, the three handsome and

remarkable Friedan brothers, especially Seraphina’s affair, had caused quite a stir.

Since she had regained her status, it was only a matter of time before she entered the socialite circle, and the

members of the Friedan family were her first target to win over.

“Can I go?” Arlene smiled innocently, her eyes sparkling like stars.

Dempsey, without thinking twice, agreed, “Let’s go together,” as he had always wanted to bring Arlene into the

circle of wealthy people.

Upon hearing this, Rosalie’s face changed and she suddenly said, “Thomas didn’t mention inviting his sister, Dad.

It’s not a good idea to bring her along so abruptly.”

After all, Arlene was an illegitimate child, so she couldn’t make it to any respectable position.

Dempsey frowned, “I have known Thomas for many years, so it is only right for me to bring Arlene to see him. It’s

none of your business as a child to interfere in adult matters.”

Rosalie’s face turned pale and then green, and all her retorts got stuck in her throat.

“Alright, then let’s go together. Don’t blame me if we get kicked out later, I warned you!” Rosalie sneered.

It wasn’t a business deal that Thomas was rushing for, he was inviting

someone himself, not Arlene.

She made up her mind to let Elva find an opportunity later to kick Arlene out, making Arlene lose face severely.

The three of them arrived at the Friedan’s manor in a grand manner.

At this moment, Thomas had already been calmed down by the family doctor’s rescue.

Inside the house, Elva’s face was full of gloom, as if she had seen through life and had lost all hope.

The butler came in to report, “Mr. Friedan, Ms. Arlene, and Mr. Dempsey have also arrived.

”

Upon hearing that Dempsey had also arrived, Thoma s’s face immediately turned extremely cold

“Let them in.”

Just in time, he wanted to ask Dempsey how he had raised his daughter. How dare he lay a hand on his wife!
