Meanwhile, Rosalie picked out the seafood.
When she returned, she saw from a distance that Geoffrey and Sydney were still talking. She didn't know what they were discussing. Worried she might interrupt them by approaching them now, she sat nearby and waited. Suddenly, she remembered that she had told Sebastian last night that she would call him once she was feeling better. Now that she had sfree time, she dialed Sebastian's number.
Sebastian picked up immediately. "Hello, Rose." "Seb, it's me. Sorry about leaving early last night." "It's okay, it was an emergency. It wasn't your fault. Are you feeling better now?" Sebastian asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRosalie responded with a hum. "I'm much better. By the way, how did it go with Miss Yancey last night? After I left, did you get along well with her?" Seeing that Sebastian remained silent, Rosalie asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you talk with her? How do you expect to win a girl's heart like this? If you really can't manage, ask Vonnie to help you. She's clever, and she seems to have a lot of ideas." After a few more seconds of silence, Sebastian said, "Rose, can we not talk about Lily anymore?" "Why?" Rosalie frowned slightly. "Did something happen? What's going on between you and Miss Yancey?" "Rose, actually, I..." Before Sebastian could finish, a bodyguard walked up to Rosalie. "Miss Young, the chairman invites you to the table." Sebastian thought the bodyguard's voice was familiar. "Rose, where are you now?" Not wanting him to worry, Rosalie replied, "I'm fine, don't worry. I'll explain it to you once I'm done here." Her calm voice gave nothing away.
"Alright, letknow if anything comes up," Sebastian said.
After hanging up, Rosalie returned to her previous seat. She sensed an unusual tension between Sydney and Geoffrey. She had a feeling this wasn't their first meeting.
"Rosalie, where did you run off to?" Geoffrey asked with a smile.
Rosalie saw Geoffrey as a smiling tiger; he was particularly sinister ruthless, and hypocritical. He even called her nso nicely! He certainly wasn't this kind when he threatened her.
"I felt that you and my mom had something to discuss, so I didn't want to disturb you," Rosalie said formally.
Even if she disliked someone, she still maintained basic courtesy.
"It's alright Geoffrey said. "There's nothing you can't hear. I just want to be friends with your mom more. By the way, you don't mind if I call you Rosalie, do you?" Rosalie shook her head. "I don't mind." Even if she did mind, it didn't seem to matter.

Geoffrey continued, "I didn't know you were Mr. Spencer's ex-wife. At first, I thought you were Sebastian's girlfriend." "No," Rosalie quickly explained. "Seb and I are just friends, nothing more." "Even if there was something, it's no
big deal." Geoffrey seemed very open-minded. "After all, you're divorced, right?,ed, right? My son is also single dm not old-fashioned. Even if there's something going on between you two..."
"Mr. Carter, there really is nothing going on between your son and me. We're just friends. Please don't misunderstand," Rosalie insisted. X Sydney picked up her glass and sipped sjuice, all the while glancing at Rosalie indifferently.
