Chapter 21 Only You Deserve My Heart
Isidro couldn’t see what was going on with Judson. He could only focus his gaze on the bright hall ahead.
It was white!
That was the first thing that came into Isidro’s mind.
He looked at a long–haired woman wearing a long white dress without thinking and quickly realized he made a mistake.
The woman’s face and figure were different from those of Rose.
No one else in the crowd wore white clothes.
Isidro relaxed. Rose still didn’t appear.
But he glanced around and saw Judson’s seat move.
The door was opened, and Judson got out of the driver’s seat. He held the car door with one hand and watched the employees filing out of the hall grimly.
Although it was dark, Isidro could feel the intense coldness around Judson.
Isidro looked back and saw a different color amid the approaching crowd.
Rose was wearing a green leisure suit jacket and light gray wide–leg pants. Her long hair was tied into a bun at the back of her head. She was walking out with her colleagues talking and laughing.
Isidro found a terrifying fact for the first time.
Il‘ Rose didn’t wear white clothes, he couldn’t find her quickly in a crowd!
The night breeze brushed Rose’s face and blew up a corner of her suit jacket, revealing the bright yellow tank top in it.
She had no white clothes on her.
She tucked her loosened hair behind her ear. Isidro couldn’t hear what she was saying to her colleagues, and her smile was cheerful and sincere. Her fair skin and red lips were shining like diamonds under the light.
Isidro stared at her eyes in a daze.
There seemed to be stars in Rose’s lustrous black eyes.
Rose used to always lower her head and be afraid of looking into people’s eyes. Her eyes could only focus when she looked at Judson. But now they had light.
Isidro always thought she was beautiful.
But now he found her even more beautiful than he imagined.
She was breathtaking.
Isidro came back to his senses and looked at Rose again. He was still holding the car door motionlessly and staring at her in the dark from afar.
After some time, when she was about to approach him and said goodbye to her colleagues, he moved and wanted to walk to her.
A silver Maserati came over and stopped in front of Rose.
“Darrin? It’s late. You…”
“I’ve just come for a short time,” Darrin interrupted her and said, “Get in the car. I will take you to see the new house.”
Rose came late tonight. She decided to rent the house.
The compound she chose was old and far from Flourish Media. But it was near Sansen Hospital. It would be convenient for her to take care of Jenifer.
Darrin parked the car downstairs and went upstairs with her. The flickering lights in the staircase made her frown.
“The management of the compound is so lame.”
“It’s not that bad.” Rose was fine with it.
She couldn’t afford to pick.
Once the door was opened, an apartment with one bedroom was revealed, smelling of mold.
Noticing Darrin was frowning hard, Rose pushed the door open and said, “I just need to ventilate the apartment.”
The apartment was small. The bedroom only had a bed and a closet. There was a kitchen beside the balcony, adjacent to the bathroom.
There were chimney spots on the counter.
Half of the tiles on the bathroom floor were broken.
Noticing Darrin looked upset, Rose quickly explained, “I will live here temporarily. When I have time, I will clean and fix it.”
Darrin didn’t say anything and felt uncomfortable.
Rose’s parents died for the Roach family, and Rose could only afford
He wouldn’t admit that because he lived an extravagant life, he rarely saw rooms like these. He found them offending to the eye.
When the closet was opened, half of its door dropped off and was barely connected to the cases.
“Its hinges are broken.” Rose quickly turned around and picked up a small tool case from her bed. “It’s simple. I saw a tutorial video online. I will fix it in no time.”
Darrin’s face darkened as he grabbed her hand, pulling it in front of his eyes. “What happened to your fingers?”
There was a purple blister on her fair finger.
Rose quickly withdrew her hand and smiled awkwardly. “I tried to fix this today, but I wasn’t good at it, so…”
She was brought up by indulgent parents, and it was the first time that she did something like this. She was clumsy and got her finger trapped in a door.
Darrin was so mad that he wanted to curse, but he couldn’t say the words out loud.
“Give it to me.” He spread his hand.
She put the tool case on his palm obediently.
Darrin got into the closet and held the door, looking at the hinge carefully.
Rose craned over and said, “Be careful. The door is heavy. I failed to hold it, and it hit my foot.”
Darrin noticed she was nervous and couldn’t help but chuckle.
The downbeat atmosphere dissipated immediately.
They felt relaxed. Darrin tried to fix the door and couldn’t free his hand. Then he handed her the tool case and said, “Get me the cross. screwdriver.
“Give me the hinge.
“Hold it still.”
It was the first time that Darrin had done this.
Darrin’s family owned Flourish Media. He could always have anything he wanted. Not to mention fixing a door, he had rarely seen broken furniture.
However, since a woman could cook for her beloved man, a man could fix things for her.
Besides, men were natural mechanics
Not long after, Darrin fixed the door.
He stood inside the closet and checked its components. Rose praised him, “Thank you, Darrin. You are awesome.”
Darrin couldn’t help but smile, “Are you so afraid that I will yell at you?”
When he had been angry just now, he had seen Rose’s nervous face. She looked like she was ready to dodge his attack.
He remembered the naughty but timid little girl. She would stretch out her hand to her stern father and look sheepish.
was QUICI.
“I won’t yell at you.” Rose closed and opened the door, feeling satisfied. “You are the mildest person I know.”
Darrin hit the rusty metal components in the closet carelessly and said, “I am only good to you…”
“What?”
His voice was slurred, and Rose didn’t hear it clearly.
Darrin took a deep breath and said, “I said I was a good person. You always take advantage of me…”
Rose chuckled and was about to tease him.
Snap!
The sound of the wooden board breaking came. Darrin’s feet sank and were stuck in the closet. His body shook, and he almost fell.
“No!” Rose automatically reached out to pull him
- up.
Just when Darrin stretched his arm, another hand appeared between theirs suddenly, and Rose was pushed away.
Darrin only saw Judson’s fleeting profile.
With a bang, the door to the closet was closed.
