Chapter 17 Making Up
After hearing what Amanda said, Rose frowned. She did not know what Amanda was playing with.
"Amanda Zhao, I don't know what you are talking about."
"Don't you?" Rose, when will you stop pretending? The reason you found someone to imprison my mother is to make me leave Burke, right? I didn't expect that the Lin Family's dear daughter, who looks as mild and harmless as a rabbit, would also do such a shameless thing! "
"Amanda, compared with what you have done to me, who do you think should be the one that is shameless?" Amanda's words didn't further enrage Rose, but amused her.
She didn't intend to do harm to others, but she became the one to blame.
"Amanda Zhao, if your mother is really imprisoned, you'd better call the police as soon as possible rather than threaten me and make trouble out of nothing."
"Call the police? Ha-ha, are you kidding me? " Amanda said with her teeth clenched, "Rose, I'm warning you. Ask them to set my mother free right now. Otherwise, I will call Burke tonight to make sure that you will get into big trouble!"
"I won't admit something I haven't done. Since you don't call the police and you have the ability to ask Burke to help you, please go ahead. "
Rose hung up the phone with relief. She clenched the phone in her hand, lowered her head and pulled down a bunch of green flowers next to her. She crushed the leaf with her fingernails, which was soaked with green liquid. Then she exhaled a little.
At this moment, she was standing in the small garden outside the restaurant. It was full of various kinds of flowers. Then she walked pass the cobblestones towards the gate of Gu Family's old house.
The huge French windows connect the scenery of the restaurant and the flower room. It blocked the noises, but not the sceneries.
Rose turned around and saw the grandma waving to her at the table.
A faint smile appeared on Rose's face and the corners of her mouth raised with difficulty.
Her thoughts were disturbed by the phone call just now.
Amanda's mother was imprisoned. Who was behind this? Rose rubbed between her eyebrows and then clicked on the private detective's number in her contact list.
"Hello, Mrs. Gu."
"Please help me investigate the background of Amanda Zhao. I want the full information within tomorrow. Thank you."
Even though Amanda's stuff had nothing to do with her, she still wanted to know the truth so that she could not take the blame for others.
She really wanted to divorce with Burke, but at least she should divorce him reasonably. Being a villain was not her thing.
At this moment, the room door clacked open. A red sports car passed Rose quickly and drove into the garage.
Still suffering from the shock, Rose stepped back and covered her chest with her hands.
The driver did not mean to hit her. It was just a threatening.
She knew that red sports car. It belonged to her mother-in-law, Sue.
It turned out that the two were indeed mother and son. They were the same kind that annoyed her.
After tidying up her dress, Rose went into the inner hall.
"What's up, Rosy? Why are you so busy? You've got so many phone calls. Since you seldom come to my house, don't you even have a little time to talk to me?" Grandma complained.
"Grandma, the phone call, it's not a big deal." Rose sat down and put her phone in her bag.
Pattering. The sound of high heels on the marble floor could be heard clearly. With a gust of wind, Sue came in. She took off her sunglasses, raised her eyebrows and glanced at Rose. Then she put on a kind face and said to the old lady, "Mom, I'm back."
"Well, here you are. Have a seat. I'll ask the servant to get one more set of tableware." The old lady answered in a serious manner, hinting her to take her seat.
"Wow, what a sumptuous meal. I'm wondering why there are so many dishes in the kitchen since Burke doesn't have time to come back." Sue still had a position in the Gu Group. Although she was only a nominal employee, she knew that Burke was on a business trip recently.
"Okay. Burke has no time to come back. But my granddaughter-in-law is here. Burke only cared about his work, not his home. Luckily, Rosy is so kind enough to see me. " The old lady smiled with satisfaction when she saw Rose. Then she turned to look at Sue and said, "Sue, since Rosy is back today, you should come back earlier. As her mother-in-law, why are you still so ignorant of the rules? Besides, I have told you to hire a driver. We can afford the money. Your poor driving skills will put you into an accident sooner or later. " Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Hearing these words, Sue pretended to be listening carefully to her, but deep down, she felt uncomfortable.
Grandma must have seen that she drove in deliberately to give Rose a shock.
The old lady favored Rose, and treated Rose even better than her.
After all, as a socialite, she was young and well-known when she married the father of Burke. What's more, the Gu Family and the Huo Family were fairly powerful at that time, and her marriage was quite appropriate.
However, she had been the daughter-in-law of the Gu Family for so many years, but she had never been treated as good as Rose by the old lady.
She was mad at this.
Rose's face, which looked exactly like her mother, Lillian, just made Sue feel all the more upset.
"Noted, mom." Sue replied.
Once depressed, one would lose their appetite for delicate and delicious food in front of them. Sue said that she didn't feel well and then went upstairs.
"That's how your mother-in-law is. She always put on airs. I don't like it." Grandma looked at Sue's figure and frowned.
Biting her food, Rose didn't give much response.
But she was in no mood to care about Sue's attitude. Her phone was vibrating in her bag.
Without answering the phone, Rose knew who was calling.
It was the same phone number. It was from Amanda Zhao.
"Rosy, have a taste. The chicken stew matsu take soup is good. I asked the cook to make it today. It's good for your health. When you recover, you'll give birth to a big grandson." Grandma carried the bowl and filled it for Rose.
"Thank you, grandma." Rose stood up and took the bowl from her, but she was kind of depressed.
She and Burke did not have another chance to have a child.
Her twelve-year hopeless waiting, Amanda Zhao's appearance, and their dead baby had made the problem between her and Burke impossible to be solved.
