Carl’s words were cut short by a glare from Romeo.
Suppressing a laugh, Carl quickly stepped back.
"Ms. Rose," he said, "I have something to tell you. Mr. Romeo can’t sleep. He’s been thinking about you every second, constantly checking his phone to see if you’ve contacted him. He’s worried about your safety and wonders what you’re up to."
"Get out," Romeo warned. "Who asked for your opinion?"
Carl retreated to the door, still laughing.
"If Mr. Romeo won’t say it, I have to say it for him."
His tone was a bit innocent.
Rosemary smiled at Romeo.
"So you didn’t listen to me. You haven’t rested properly today."
"I was worried about you," Romeo touched her face. "Let’s talk about it when we get home."
"Okay."
Everyone around them was stunned.
Mr. Elliot had not expected Romeo to be here for this young woman. Were they dating? Romeo was actually obeying a girl’s words and looking at her with such indulgence.
Gordon was also surprised to find out that Ms. Rose had a boyfriend, and he was none other than the famous Romeo, the man in charge of the McMillian Corporation.
His gaze darkened momentarily.
Mr. Elliot knew that falling into Romeo’s hands would be worse than death. As he stepped out of the room, he saw rusty nails on the wall of the dilapidated alley and suddenly rammed his head into them.
Rosemary, noticing his intentions, quickly reached out to stop him.
The rusty nail scraped the back of Rosemary’s hand. At the same time, she kicked Mr. Elliot to the ground.
"Rose." Romeo’s heart jumped as he grabbed her hand. A small cut had been made on the back of it. His heart seemed to have been cut as well, suddenly aching.
He asked if the medicine in the bottle could stop the bleeding, and, receiving an affirmative answer, quickly applied it to Rosemary’s wound, his movements light and quick.
Gordon looked at his concerned expression, and then thought about his rough movements when he had poured the medicine on his own back.
He seemed like a completely different person.
"You want to die? It’s not that easy!"
Carl had Mr. Elliot tied up and gave him a few hard hits.
"You’ve hurt Ms. Rose. Now it’s your turn!"
"Try it!" Mr. Elliot shouted.
He knew that falling into their hands would be worse than suicide.
After bandaging Rosemary’s wound, Romeo shot him a cold look.
"I don’t know if your family shares your disregard for life. It’s been a long time since you’ve had a family reunion. Why don’t we gather everyone tonight? Before death, you can enjoy being together, and it will be less lonely on the way to the underworld."
"What do you want to do?" Mr. Elliot hadn’t expected Romeo to threaten him with his family’s lives.
"They have no idea about my identity and work. My actions shouldn’t affect them. If you dare hurt them, I will never forgive you, even as a ghost!"
Carl punched him.
"You dare to threaten our boss? You’re not even worthy of being his opponent alive, let alone as a ghost."
"What do you want to do? Come at me! Don’t hurt them!" Mr. Elliot was terrified for his family.
"You don’t have the right to negotiate with me, especially after you hurt her."
Romeo extended his hand, and Carl immediately placed a small knife in it.
Whoever dared to hurt Ms. Rose was clearly tired of living.
As Romeo approached Mr. Elliot step by step, Gordon was worried that the man Rosemary wanted might be killed by Romeo in advance.
Rosemary just stood aside as if this was a common occurrence, her expression somewhat cold.
In the pouring rain, Romeo’s henchmen held an umbrella over him, while others formed a human barrier behind him, blocking Rosemary’s line of sight.
