Chapter 111
Roseanne steaed, her words dripping with disdain. “I haven’t been back to the country in years, but is this how all the women there are- like you!”
-low–class
Rosalie’s patienor was wearing thin. In her past life, Roseanne had made a point of showing off in front of her, trying to play up her presence because Rosalie was so fixated on Julian
In the end, it was that very obsession that made Rosalie lose ground, and she ended up doing some pretty pathetic things.
Looking back now, it wasn’t just Julian who might’ve wished she were dead–sometimes, Rosalie wished her past self could just disappear too
She shook off those thoughts, focusing on the song look on Roseanne’s face.

She let out a mocking laugh. Her words were laced with so much disdain that it almost felt like she slapped Roseanne again without lifting a finger. Staring at Roseanne’s angry face, Rosalie retorted, “The last person who dared lay a hand on me ended up sleeping on the streets. You should be glad your slap didn’t land on my face
Her eyes flashed a cold glint, and her slurp gaze was enough to make Roseanne feel like she was under attack
After giving Roseanne a final warning, Rosalie turned to leave, determined to have no further interactions with her.

as she was about to get back into her car, she saw a black Bendey slowly pull up behind her.
Two figures then got out, and both Rosalie and Roseanne’s expressions changed instantly.
Rosalie thought, Juliant of all places to run into him, this is just my luck
