The afternoon sun was caressing the earth like a gentle ribbon. It poured warmth into the world. The warm glow was the warm embrace of the sun, which gave every life the power of holiness.
Rosemary took the car to the intersection downtown. She didn’t want to make a scene, so she asked the driver to drop her off here.
It wasn't too far from the bookstore, and Rosemary decided to walk there to relax.
Rosemary walked into one of the busiest neighborhoods in the city. A sweet smile came over her face as she remembered the days she had spent with Carina.
“Miss Harris!” Edmund Johnson walked up to Rosemary and smiled. “It was you,” he said. “I thought it was someone who looked like you.” Rosemary looked at Edmund Johnson in surprise and smiled. “Dr. Johnson, what a coincidence!” “Miss Harris, where are you going?” Rosemary smiled lightly and said, “I'm going to the library to buy some books and take a walk.” Edmund Johnson smiled. “What a coincidence. I'm going to buy some books, too. Let's go together.” “Ok!” “What kind of books do you like to read?” Edmund Johnson asked curiously.

“Then I'll call you Edmund. And don't you call me Miss Harris, or The Young Mrs. Grant. You're Wilson's friend, which means you're my friend, too. You can just call me Rosemary.” Rosemary smiled.
They found themselves in the library. Looking at a variety of books, Rosemary walked toward her favorite area.
Rosemary was carefully picking out the books she wanted, and she was immersed in it.
“Rosemary, are you here to buy books, too?” Olivia Miller was the belle of the Noble School. She was the little princess who had been spoiled by her family since childhood, so she was unruly and capricious and unreasonable. Rosemary usually avoided her as much as she could.
Rosemary didn’t want to talk to Olivia Miller, but thinking it was a library, she finally said, “Yes!” Olivia Miller looked at Rosemary with disdain, “Is it true that you married The Young Mr. Grant?” Rosemary didn’t want to talk to her, so she took the book she had chosen and went to another section.
Olivia Miller was angry that Rosemary was leaving, so she said aloud, “Rosemary, why could you marry Wilson Grant? How can a woman like you, who is neither pretty nor sexy, marry him?" Rosemary stopped and turned to look coldly at Olivia Miller, “Olivia, for the sake of being my classmate, | would like to remind you of your manners. This isn’t your house. This is the library.” Rosemary stopped again. “I'm nothing, but I'm Wilson Grant's rightful wife now. You have everything you want, but you have nothing to do with him.” As soon as Rosemary finished, there were murmurs in the library.
Olivia Miller blushed and yelled, “Rosemary, I'm not done with you!” “I didn’t know you could do that.” Edmund Johnson looked at Rosemary with amusement.
Rosemary's face looked like a red apple when Edmund Johnson said that. “I was just trying to protect myself,” she said sheepishly.
When Edmund Johnson heard Rosemary's words, he wanted to protect her.
“Anyway, have you picked out all your books yet?” Edmund Johnson diverged.
Rosemary looked at the books in her hand and smiled, “Yes, let's go!” “Okay!” Edmund Johnson went to the register, put the book on the register, took Rosemary's books, and said to the cashier, “How much is it, please? Then pack them separately.” Rosemary saw Edmund Johnson wanted to pay for her book, and hurriedly took out her wallet, “Edmund, I'll pay for it myself.” Edmund Johnson stopped Rosemary's purse and smiled. “Rosemary, these books are my gift to you,” he said.

“Rosemary, where are you going now?” “I'm going back to The Grant's. Thank you for the books. I'm gonna go.” Rosemary said to Edmund Johnson and walked in the direction where the driver had stopped.
Rosemary was about to get in the car and go home when her cell phone rang, “Hello, Dad.” “Rosemary, are you free today?” Andrew Harris asked slowly.
When Andrew Harris said that, Rosemary felt nervous and thought something was going on at the company. “I'll be right back, Dad,” she said hurriedly.
Rosemary got in the car and hurried back to the Harris’. She had hardly entered the house when she heard an argument coming from inside.
“Andrew Harris, you can't keep siding with Rosemary over Daisy! Or do you just not care about us?” Laurie cried bitterly.
“Rosemary said she'll be right back, so I'll ask her what the hell's going on here, okay?” Andrew Harris said irritably.
Rosemary walked into the living room and saw her father aged a lot. They hadn't seen each other for only a few days! “What's the matter, Dad? Did something happen to the company?” Rosemary asked anxiously.
Laurie saw Rosemary coming back and asked, “Rosemary, tell me, what did you do to Daisy?" Rosemary looked puzzled at Laurie and said coldly, “What did | do to her? You should ask her what she had done to me!” “Dad, what happened to her?” Rosemary asked, looking at Andrew Harris.
“Daisy had been holed up in her room ever since she got back from the party, saying no, no, no.” Rosemary turned to Laurie and said, “You can put Daisy's mind at ease by telling her I'm not pressing charges. | hope she will think of her own way out while beating others in the future.” Andrew Harris heard Rosemary's words and looked at her with remorse. “Rosemary, I'm sorry | didn’t teach Daisy well.” On hearing this, Laurie snorted, “Andrew Harris, do you feel like you don't need us anymore, so you're putting all the blame on us?” “Shut your mouth. It's all because of you. You are entirely responsible for Daisy being the way she is today. If you hadn't been indulging her, she wouldn't be what she is today.” The more Andrew Harris said, the more his heart ached.
