She didn’t expect that Sean had snuck out early to meet Romeo, all to have him chase after her.
Suddenly, Rosemary found Sean rather endearing.
"Since Sean said it, I’d be a jerk not to ask you out." Romeo’s words had Rosemary fighting back a laugh,
"So what, now I have to play along?"
"When it comes to Sean, you bet." Romeo flashed a grin, "Are you busy right now? If not, I can swing by and pick you up."
Romeo’s smile hadn’t faltered once since the unexpected aid in his romantic endeavors.
"Sure," Rosemary was curious to see just how surprised Sean would be when he discovered the true nature of Rosemary and Romeo’s relationship.
On the way home, a thought suddenly struck Sean, prompting him to call his dad.
He had reviewed the surveillance footage from the abandoned building and initially, Martha and Serena’s antics had infuriated him so much that he’d overlooked something important: during the incident when Martha was bullying Rose, there was a guy standing nearby, angrily yelling at Martha,
"Don’t you dare lay hand on her, Martha. Take it up with me."
Could this guy be one of Rose’s men? And what other secrets about Rose’s identity was he unaware of?
Over the phone, Kenneth relayed everything Bard had told him, leaving Sean in shock. Her own little sister was the head of Mafia Flame!
Sean was all too aware of Mafia Flame’s reputation in that brutal world but never imagined his own sister would be the one at the helm.
Of all the groups there, her organization was known to be the most ethical, the most upright!
But that place was chaos incarnate. Sean had sent a group of his own people there once, and they were nearly wiped out. Another squad he sent for revenge suffered a similar fate; the locals were just
too brutal, too inhumane.
Eventually, it was the instigators who ended up in Belloria, in his grasp, giving him the chance to avenge his fallen buddies.
How had his sister survived in such a vicious place? How old was she at the time?
Hearing from his father how she had repeatedly skirted death’s door, struggling to get medicine to save Grannie Grace, Sean’s eyes began to moisten.
The hardships his little sister had endured at such a young age far surpassed anything his brothers or he had faced.
Compared to her struggles, the injuries and false accusations he had dealt with paled in insignificance.
His sister was truly the one who deserved the tenderest care.
While his sister was suffering, Serena lived a life of luxury, spending money like water at their place.
Just then, his phone pinged with a message from Romeo, sending him the location of a restaurant. The guy was quicker than he expected.
"Turn around, let’s head to Petals Restaurant," Sean instructed.
Romeo was picking up Rosemary from the Collins family, which meant Sean arrived at Petals Restaurant ahead of them.
True to its name, the restaurant was adorned with fresh petals, creating a romantic ambiance like being amidst a sea of flowers, with the ocean outside shimmering under the sunlight, a breathtaking shade of blue. It was one of the premier dating spots for lovers.
