Savage Love On His Wheelchair novel Chapter 48

Chad smiled and said, “Rosemary, that’s who I am in your heart?”

Rosemary thought that when she said that, Chad would get mad and stop talking to her. But instead of being annoyed, he looked pleased.

What was she gonna do now? How the hell was she gonna find out if it was him that night?

Rosemary took a deep breath and clenched her fingers around the corners of her dress, saying, “Isn’t it?”

Looking at her pale face, Chad smiled ruefully. “Ok, let’s go in!”

Rosemary sighed, wondering if she had gone too far.

Chad took two steps and stopped and said, “I’m going on a business trip tomorrow for about a week.” Then he turned and left.

Well…

Rosemary didn’t know what he meant by that, but at least she was safe for a few nights.

“Rosemary, what are you doing here and not in?” Andrew Harris approached and asked.

“Dad!” Rosemary grabbed Andrew Harris’s arm and said, “How are you doing?”

Andrew patted her arm and smiled gently. “I’m fine, you don’t have to worry about me!”

Looking at Rosemary’s pale skin, Andrew Harris could see right through it even though her face was covered with a layer of foundation and blush.

“Rosemary, are you having a hard time at The Grant’s? Why were you so pale?” There was worry in his eyes.

Andrew Harris now regretted that he agreed to marry Rosemary into The Grant family. He had expected Wilson Grant to wake up when she was married to him, but in this case, that was not going to happen.

“Dad, I’m fine. I just caught a cold these days, so my skin is a little pale.” Rosemary said, resting her head on Andrew Harris’s shoulder.

“All I want is for you to be okay, so I won’t be sorry to your mom.” He said, his face indulgent as he touched her head.

Christine, please keep Rosemary safe and happy.

Andrew Harris thought to himself.

Laurie had just come from Daisy’s to talk to Andrew Harris and was annoyed to see them laughing and talking.

“Rosemary, today is all about your sister’s engagement, and it’s all about the bigwigs. Is that appropriate to lean on your father like that?” Laurie scowled.

Rosemary stood up straight, saw Laurie’s strange face, and said faintly, “Laurie, is it not proper for a daughter to play pettish before her father? No wonder Daisy was taught so... well by you.”

Laurie was so upset that she tried to grab Rosemary when Andrew Harris said, “Laurie, it’s Daisy’s engagement party. Watch your manners.”

“I…”

Laurie looked at Andrew Harris. She wanted to say something, but she didn’t. She just left angrily.

Laurie was furious. She wanted to be angry but then remembered that today was Daisy’s engagement party. That look was really funny.

“Dad, I’m gonna go say hi to my friends, and I’ll catch up with you later.”

Rosemary wanted to go find a place to breathe, because it was so boring here. She wouldn’t have come if she hadn’t been afraid her dad would be upset.

“Okay!” Andrew Harris answered and went to check on Daisy. Then he turned to Rosemary and said, “Rosemary, come to the office tomorrow.”

“Okay!”

Rosemary didn’t think much about it. She felt her stomach rumbling with hunger and realized that she hadn’t had breakfast this morning.

She picked up some food and put it on a plate. Then she went to a corner and sat down to eat.

Rosemary ate the food on the plate and thought she should have brought a bowl of soup. She looked over at the convention center, and she really didn’t want to interact with those people.

“I thought you might need something to drink. I didn’t know what you liked, so I got you some.”

Edmund stood behind her with the soup.

“Edmund, what are you doing here? Are you here for John Sawyer’s engagement party, too?” Rosemary asked, smiling as she stood up.

“Here, drink up the soup first! It’s not gonna taste good when it gets cold.”

Edmund smiled and handed his soup to Rosemary.

Seeing Edmund so carefully, Rosemary wondered if there would be another Olivia if the girls who fancied him knew that.

Thinking of this, she shivered and said to Edmund with a smile, “Edmund, you are so considerate. Whoever will be your girlfriend will be very happy!”

Edmund’s body froze. He looked at Rosemary and thought, “I’m doing this only to you!”

Rosemary slowly tasted the soup in the bowl, as if she was drinking the most delicious things in the world.

“Rosemary, so you’re here!” John Sawyer had a tired look on his face. There was nothing on his face like the joy of a new engagement.

Rosemary looked up into the deep eyes of John Sawyer, the eyes that she had loved so much at one time were no longer there.

“What’s up?” Rosemary said coldly, “Aren't you supposed to be with your fiancee? Why are you here? Aren’t you afraid my sister will be jealous?”

John Sawyer saw her talking about his sister all the time and knew she was making fun of his betrayal. But now he had nothing to say to her.

“Rosemary, I know I was wrong, and I don’t expect you to forgive me, but I just hope we don’t talk like this, okay?” John Sawyer said sadly.

Rosemary sneered in her heart, “John Sawyer, don’t talk about the past. You know what they say, right? Who hasn't met a cheating man in his youth? I just want you to be nice to Daisy and not let her go around saying that I’m still involved with you, then I'll be grateful for that.”

Perhaps he should not have asked for her forgiveness at all. After all, he had hurt her in the first place, and it would be useless to regret it now.

“Well, have a good time.” John Sawyer didn’t know what else to say. He had to leave first so he wouldn’t embarrass each other.

Rosemary shivered as she watched John Sawyer’s back. She really wanted to go up and ask him why he chose Daisy in the first place.

Edmund looked at her trembling shoulder and gently patted it. “Rosemary, are you okay?”

“I am fine. I’m going to walk by the river and get some fresh air.”

Edmund smiled and said, “I’ll go with you!”

Rosemary didn’t turn down Edmund’s offer. They were walking side by side by the Blue River.
