Love After One-Night Stand With CEO Chapter 41

Chapter 41: Let Mr. Wright Be the Scapegoat

Grace was extremely shocked by seeing this.

Rosa asked in confusion, “What? Is it really expensive?”

Grace stared at her as if she was looking at an alien.

“My God, do you not know? This is the top underwear brand. This black set costs at least ten thousand dollars!”

She stared at the underwear intently after finishing her words.

After a while, she wiped her hands on her body before she reached into the box again.

“Heavens, there’s also a yellow bikini? Oh my god, how much do these cost!”

In an instant, Grace repeatedly exclaimed “Oh my god” to express her amazement.

Rosa frowned in confusion. A set of underwear costs 10,000 dollars?!

What a waste of money!

“Rosa, who gave you this?” Grace stared at her in jealousy.

She knew that Rosa would never spend money on such expensive items, plus she didn’t really have that much money.

“Uh…” Rosa frowned and didn’t know how to explain.

Seeing her hesitating, Grace seemed to think of something and said, “Did someone come today? No wonder you made so many dishes… who was it?”

“Yes, Mr. Wright came today, and…”

“Mr. Wright, you mean the genius teacher?” Grace interrupted her.

Rosa nodded.

“Oh, my God, he gave you something so expensive. Hey, is he interested in you?” Grace raised her eyebrows.

Rosa frowned and tried to explain, “Grace, you got it wrong, actually…”

“Ha, who knew that genius teacher could be so extravagant.” Grace couldn’t help but laugh. “Rosa, I think he has eyes on you. Otherwise, why would he give you such expensive underwear?”

He had eyes on her?

These words did not seem good.

As soon as she thought of that perverted guy, Rosa was very unhappy.

“What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?” Seeing the sudden change of her expression, Grace was confused.

Rosa came to her senses and said with a carefree smile, “Nothing, why, do you like it a lot?”

“Of course, all women would like it. This is a symbol of our identity.” Grace exclaimed as she stared at the expensive underwear.

“Then you can have it.” Rosa said nonchalantly.

Grace was stunned and looked at her in dismay. “You… what did you say? You’re giving it to me?”

Rosa nodded and continued to mop the floor.

“Rosa, do you know how expensive this is? This…”

“For me, I value practicality over price. Not everything can be measured by money!” She interrupted Grace.

Grace was stunned and frowned. “Are you really going to give it to me? But this is a gift from Mr. Wright, will it…”

“I don’t like it anyway.” Rosa did not want to explain anymore, so she let Mr. Wright be the scapegoat.

If she had known the truth, she would definitely ask why Henry would give her underwear.

“This…” Grace was a little hesitant.

She was familiar with cosmetics, underwear, bags, and luxurious goods.

Because she believed that one day she could own them.

But now, she didn’t have the right to do so.

Seeing the two sets of ten-thousand-dollar underwear made her feel conflicted.

“Since you’ve given it to me, it’s mine now!” After hesitating for a while, she knew that she shouldn’t have taken someone else’s gift.

However, if she missed this opportunity…

She probably won’t even be able to afford it in this life!

“Rosa, I’ll only take one set. You can give me whichever you want.” Grace was a little embarrassed.

Rosa bent down and picked up the garbage on the floor. She said without even raising her head, “No need, I don’t like any of them. You can have them both.”

“You’re giving it all… to me?”

“Yes, I don’t wear it anyway.” Rosa said as she went to the bathroom to clean the mop.

Grace bit her lip and trembled in happiness. She was in a trance.

A few minutes later.

“Rosa, I still have something else to do, so I’ll head out first. This thing, I… I’ll take it.”

“Are you all right? Is it anything important?” Rosa was a little worried. “Don’t go to that place again…”

“Don’t worry, I’m not going to those places anymore. I’m leaving now.” Grace left with the gift box in her arms before Rosa could say anything.

Even after she entered the elevator, Grace still couldn’t get rid of her excitement.

This thing was finally hers…

However…

She frowned slightly.

Had she gone too far?

She questioned Rosa’s sincerity just now, and was a little afraid that she’ll go back on her words, so she wanted to leave in a hurry…

“It’s okay. I’ll have to treat Rosa better in the future. She’s still a college student anyway, and it’s not like anyone would see her in that underwear!” Grace comforted herself, and her guilt suddenly faded away.

—

Early the next morning, Rosa went to Lewis Mansion after settling her things at home.

She came a little early today. The young master had not woken up.

Thus, Luke let her wait for a while in the mansion.

Rosa was not used to it, so she decided to visit the garden.

Lewis Mansion was really huge. It had a private garden.

It was an Italian-style garden.

There were layers of land, fountains, and statues.

There weren’t many flowers in the garden, which made the greenery stood out much more.

However, because there were not many flowers, these flowers looked much more exquisite than the ones you would normally see.

“It’s pretty, right!” Suddenly, a gentle voice said beside Rosa.

Rosa looked over and saw a maid in her forties watering the flowers carefully.

“Yes, it looks nice!”

“I enjoy working here every day!” The woman smiled happily.

Rosa kept quiet. She thought differently.

She used to be happy about this job.

But now, she felt inexplicably pressured!

“Ah!” A heavy sigh interrupted her thoughts.

“Huh? Auntie, why did you sigh?” Rosa was a little confused. “Didn’t you say that you were happy just now?”

The woman smiled and said, “I don’t want to leave this job, but I have no choice. My daughter-in-law is having a baby, but no one could take care of her!”

“Oh… Auntie is leaving?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Yes, you see, life here is so relaxing. Occasionally water some flowers, wipe the stools and tables in the courtyard, and I’d easily earn 4 to 5 thousand dollars per month! Besides, I’d even get a bonus if I do well!” She thought the job was really good because it was easy, plus she ate well and lived well.

Rosa frowned and thought for a while. “Then who will replace you after you leave, auntie?”

“Oh, are you scared that no one would take my place? Don’t worry, there are tons of people who want to work here at Lewis Mansion. But, whoever takes my place would be so lucky!” She didn’t want to leave, but she had no choice.

“Miss Lopez!” Luke hurried over.

Auntie smiled at her and left with the bucket.

“Miss Lopez, the young master is awake. Let’s go now!” Luke smiled and said.

He had heard from Miss Garcia that her parents had both died, and that she was working and studying simultaneously to take care of her younger brother.

He felt sorry for her, and so he treated her more kindly.

Rosa nodded and followed him to the lobby.

“Luke…” When they were about to reach the door, Rosa stopped him reluctantly.

“Huh? Miss Lopez, what’s wrong?”

Rosa bit her lip, thought for a moment, then raised her head and asked, “Luke, I just heard from the maid while watering the flowers that she wanted to go back to take care of her daughter-in-law. If she leaves, then the work… Well, I mean, can I introduce my friend for the job?”

“Eh? Your friend? Come and be a maid?”

“Luke, although my friend has not studied very much, she is a nice person and very hard-working. She… needs a stable job!” Rosa looked at him pleadingly.

Luke thought about it and smiled slightly. “I’ll just tell you the truth. The recruitment advertisement hasn’t been sent out yet. Once we send it out, there will definitely be a lot of applicants. Well, since you had mentioned it first, I’ll let your friend come over for an interview. We’ll see if it works out. Okay?”

Rosa nodded gratefully and said, “Thank you, Luke!”

Luke quickly smiled and said, “It’s okay, it’s nothing.”

Rosa couldn’t help but smile. Grace must have this job no matter what!

Then she went to the young master’s room to tutor him.

“Why do you keep staring at the door?” The young master could not help but ask when he noticed her being distracted.

Rosa was a little embarrassed. “No, nothing…”

“Hehe, I know, you are afraid of my uncle!” The young master said with a smug look.

Rosa suddenly froze.

Was she that obvious?

“Haha, my uncle is a devil. He’s so scary. You’re not the only one, Miranda is also afraid of him!” The young master snorted.

Rosa sighed in relief. So that was what he meant…

“Don’t be afraid. My uncle hadn’t returned home since last night!” The young master grinned.

“Hadn’t returned?” she thought.

Rosa immediately sighed in relief once again.

“Ha, since you’re my master’s sister and you’re afraid of uncle like me, I won’t bully you anymore!” The young master patted his chest and said.

Rosa could not help but laugh and said, “Then I have to thank you for that.”

“That’s right. I still want to go see my master. Why don’t you bring him over!” The young master said excitedly.

“Let’s not talk about this first. We need to study first. We can discuss this later!”

Rosa suddenly felt relaxed that the man was not there.

Her quality of teaching improved a lot.

By noon, she managed to finish his homework.

“You’re so awesome, young master. You’re so smart!” Rosa was a little surprised.

It seemed that the young master wasn’t bad at studying, he was just not willing to learn.

“Young Master, your meal is ready. It’s time to eat.” A servant came and shouted.

“Let’s go and eat first!” The young master hurriedly ran out with a smile.

Rosa smiled and grabbed her bag. “I’m not eating. I’ll head back first.”

The young master was stunned. “Aren’t you going to eat here?”

“No, my brother is alone at home. I have to go back first.”

In fact, Cecil had already prepared lunch.

But she didn’t want to stay here.

Because she didn’t know when that ‘devil’ would come back.

Therefore, the best way was to leave as soon as possible!

As soon as she went downstairs with her backpack in her hand, Rosa saw an anxious Grace with her hair dyed black…
