Kaleb couldn’t believe in
With no more excuses leh, Roseanne had no choice but to bite the bullet, pull out her phone, and say. “I guess I really didn’t learn the traffic rules
Lenough, and I upset your wife. I’ll call the insurance company right away”
She dialed the insurance company as she spoke. As soon as she finished explaining her situation, the insurance adjuster from Rosalie’s side arrived.
it was clear that Roseanne was at fault. The adjuster took a quick look but stayed to wait for Roseanne’s insurance
Given the circumstances, it was

Kaleb was eager to get back to his wife for dinner. Seeing the adjuster had arrived, he handed over Rosalie’s car and announced he was leaving
“Let’s go.” Julian said, clearly with no intention of staying. Roseanne’s heart sank even further,
Despite the obvious facts and seeing Julian really about to leave, Roseanne still clung to a sliver of hope and called out, “Wait, Julian”

She wanted to add. “Because I left without a word back then, but Julian surprisingly nodded. “Yeah, I am pretty angry,” he admitted,
For a moment, Roseanne’s heart soared. She thought, I knew Julian still loved me deep down. Otherwise, why would he still be angry after the year!

shattered her hopes again. “You just slandered my wife and twisted the facts. How co slapped you as a lesson, I’ll let it go
