Come With Me novel Chapter 48

I can't remember why I didn't dodge at that time. Perhaps I really took him as Rogelio at that time.

The kiss of Robbie was domineering, like a king patrolling his territory.

The alcohol in my body makes me feel a wonderful feeling. Every cell of my body is full of the stress.

"Michelle!"

"Rogelio!"

As Robbie's hand stopped, the air between us suddenly became quiet. All the illusions were shattered at that moment.

We just stared at each other quietly. It was easy for me to feel Robbie's breath.

With his eyes closed and brows frowned, Robbie propped himself up and rolled over. Then he lay beside me with a hand on his forehead.

"It turns out that you like Michelle!"

I should have been shocked at this, but because of the scene just now, I was unable to think too much.

"Is it the most painful and pathetic thing for you to own the woman that your brother loves?"

Without answering me, Robbie suddenly stood up and went to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of water.

"The reason why you married me to Rogelio is that you want Rogelio to have a wife. And you can go to express your love to Michelle?"

Robbie put the water in his mouth for a second and then swallowed.

"Is that the reason why you are unwilling to go through the divorce formalities for Rogelio?"

I don't know where my spirit and strength come from that I can still lie there aggressive.

"Yes, if you think so, you are right," the light from the corner of Robbie's eyes just shone.

Robbie picked up his coat on the chair and turned around to leave.

"I have washed it for you before I returned it to you."

"This dress can't be washed by water but can only be dried. I'm afraid you'll feel sorry if you spend the money for one dry cleaning."

At that moment, I finally realized that since I was poor, and I should be prepared for being sneered at any time.

I watched Robbie leaving the door, lost in thought. Then I fell asleep on the carpet all night.

After what happened last night, I thought it was difficult for me and Robbie to see each other again. But two days passed, when I gave out the leaflets, Robbie came to me again.

When he saw me, he gave me several hundred dollars.

I didn't understand why Rogelio gave me the money.

"1000 dollars for your commercial shooting."

"Why are they in your hands? They are willing to give me the money! I thought I couldn't get it. "

Robbie's face was still very cold and indifferent. A strong sense of distance was a constant reminder that he and I weren't even the most ordinary friends.

"I'm your creditor, and it will do no harm to me if you fail to make money."

After stuffing the money into my hand, Robbie turned around to leave, without any intention of staying here any longer.

But in the past few days, there were so many reports about Michelle. The more I wanted to escape, the more they were like nightmares.

Then she appeared on the large screens on the street again.

But this time it was not an advertisement, but a news interview.

In the video, Michelle walked out of the airport, followed by a lot of staff, wearing sunglasses and walking with an imposing manner.

"Amy, in the past year, you have been doing business abroad and everything goes well. Why did you choose to come back recently?"

"Because I think there is still a lot of room for development in our country."

"You are promoting the advertising film to domestic market recently, and I heard that you are also shooting some domestic movies. Is it true?"

"Yes. This is my job. It's not surprising."

"Amy, it's said that you return to China for a relationship, isn't it?"

Hearing the question, Michelle stood down and took off her sunglasses, revealing her beautiful face. She stared at the camera and said solemnly, "yes, the reason why I came back to start my career is because of the man I love deeply. This man needs me, and I don't want to be separated from him anymore."

"It's said that this mysterious man was Rogelio of the Luo Group. Is it true?"

"The love between us has made Rogelio wake up from a coma. And I also believe that Rogelio will recover soon. No matter how far he can recover, I'm willing to stay with him forever."

"Wow, your love for Mr. Luo is so deep and great..."

I took my attention away from the video and looked at Robbie who had stepped away for five or six steps and asked "Are you free tonight?"

Robbie looked back at me without saying anything.

I showed him the 1000 in my hand and ask, "Would you like some drinks? It's my treat."

Robbie looked at the money in my hand and hesitated.

"I'm afraid 1000 is not enough."

I was happy that Robbie didn't turn me down.

"OK, let's eat just one thousand this time."

After short hesitation, he actually agreed.

"Wait for a moment? I'll leave after I give out these leaflets. "

Robbie walked to a public chair and sat there, looking at his cell phone.

I looked at him, wondering if we were as pathetic as each other at the moment. So I gave him a bitter smile and handed out the leaflets.

The old lady who gave out leaflets with me stood by my side and sighed as she looked at the big screen on which the audio had been changed.

"Do you believe that?"

I was confused by her question. "Believe what?"

She pointed at the screen and asked, "the love that Amy just mentioned."

"I don't know. Do you believe?"

She shook her head, "it's hard to say. Stars nowadays dare not say anything to hype or lie. If it is really as she said, why didn't she stay at China this year? She have been abroad for so long, and now come back."

"Or she can't bear to see her beloved man lying there all day long. I'm afraid her heart will ache."

She raised her eyes and said, "Well, I do believe if the man is a common man. But who is he? He is the eldest son of the Luo Group. Do you know how rich he is? If I were she, I would be willing to have that wealth even if I had to be a widow, let alone he just might not wake up."
