Chapter 1347
Rosalie returned to her room and pondered hard before finally calling Justin back.
He answered the call quickly and his voice came through the phone. "Hey, Rose. What's up?"
"Justin, come to my place tomorrow. You, me, and Theo, we'll have dinner together."
"Tomorrow?"
"Yes, are you free?"
Justin pondered for a moment before saying, "I am, but does Theo know about this?"
"He does. He agreed to it."
"Alright, then. I'll head over tomorrow."
"Where will you be tomorrow? I'll go pick you up after work."
"It's fine, I can head over myself. Just give me your address."
"I'll do that. You must come."
"I will. I always do whatever I promise you."
"Okay, I'll take you at your word. I'll text you my address. I knock off at five in the evening and take around half an hour to drive home. You can arrive here earlier than that."
The two of them hung up soon after.
Rosalie immediately drafted a text to Justin to inform him of her address. She was so worried she might get it wrong that she repeatedly checked through it before finally sending it out.
The next morning, Rosalie headed out for work with her bag.
"Rose." Theodore saw her coming down the stairs. "Come here for breakfast."
"I'm going to work, and I'm going to be late."
"It's fine, you should eat before you go."
"I can't. I just started work and it's not good to be late."
"I can call your superior."
Theodore was making it clear that he could use his power and influence to help her.
Rosalie shook her head. "Please don't do that I don't want any special treatment. I just want to an ordinary person there, doing things by my own merit. Please don't
make that call, or I'll cast

Theodore's eyes darkened but he nodded. "Got it. Give me a minute."
He took a plate from the dining table with two sunny side ups. "Eat this and then drink some milk. Quick."
Rosalie couldn't bring herself to reject him. She hurriedly stuffed the two eggs in her mouth and gulped down the milk. "Alright. Happy now?"
Theodore nodded with satisfaction. "Drive carefully and don't be anxious."
"Got it. I will."noveldrama
Rosalie left the house in a hurry.
Theodore handed the plate to a servant.
"Oh, yes." Rosalie ran back again. "Theo, I invited Justin here for dinner tonight Please push back all your appointments for the evening and be here for dinner. He might come earlier."
Theodore nodded. "Got it. I will come back early and wait for him."
Rosalie nodded. "Thank you."
With that, she turned to leave.
When Rosalie arrived at her desk, she began a new day of work.
Her work was busy and she had to read tons of information and financial data and analyze and organize them. Aside from the short break over lunch, she was busy practically the entire day.
She worked faster in hopes of knocking off at five on the dot.
At four thirty in the evening, her superior suddenly called for a meeting.
Rosalie glanced at the time and thought that the meeting might end around five.
To her dismay, the meeting didn't look like it was going to end when the clock struck five. Her superior kept talking non-stop.
Her other colleagues in the meeting room were exceptionally quiet, paying full attention to their superior. None of them looked annoyed and in a rush to go home.
Rosalie had just started work here and, like any other new employee, was very cautious and diligent in all she did.
She kept glancing at the time, watching it go from 5.10 pm to 5.20 pm, then to 5.30 pm...and the meeting was still ongoing.
