When Rosalie woke up the next morning, her eyes were all swollen.


    When Reba saw that during breakfast, she asked worriedly,” What’s the matter, Rose? Why are


    your eyes so swollen?”


    “I…” Rosalie cried for a long timest night, but she couldn’t possibly tell Reba the truth.


    “Maybe… Maybe it’s because I didn’t sleep wellst night.”


    A smile appeared on Reba’s face. “It’s normal for a young couple. to not get good sleep at night.


    That way, you should be able to get. pregnant soon.”


    “Grandma, don’t say that,” Rosalie said, blushing.


    She had just lied to Reba that Theodore was unable to join them for breakfast because he had


    to leave early in the morning to attend to something. Reba didn’t question her about it.


    “Fine, I won’t go on. Eat more, you need to take good care of your body.”


    Rosalie bit the bullet, and ate her breakfast. Her thoughts drifted to their resident register. She knew


    she would never be able to find them. all by herself.


    Reba had to first tell her where the documents were, and be willing to give it to her.


    “Grandma, where is my resident register?” she asked.


    Rosalie couldn’t think of a better way than this. Finding her resident register in this ce was like


    finding a needle in a haystack. She had to avoid drawing many people’s attention, and it was way


    too risky. She would be doomed if she were found out. C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.


    “Resident register?” Reba furrowed her brows. “Why do you need it


    out of the blue?”


    Under ordinary circumstances, one usually wouldn’t need something


    like that.


    Seeing the doubts in Reba’s eyes, Rosalie exined in a hurry, “I lost my ID card, and I need to


    rece it. That’s why I need my resident.


    register.”


    “Oh, I see,” Reba said, as realization dawned upon her. “Why didn’t you tell me that yesterday?”


    “I forgot about it. I just remembered it now. Grandma, I need my resident register to rece my ID


    card. Can you please give it to me?”


    Rosalie started regretting not thinking of this excuse right from the


    start.


    However, it was most probably because she had a guilty conscience. The instincts of anyone with a


    guilty conscience were to not let anyone know, and to do things secretly.


    “Sure! Of course.”


    Reba turned around to instruct Zane, “Bring her resident register


    here.”


    Rosalie’s heart raced. When she saw Zane handing her the resident register a few minutester,


    she felt her brain buzzing. She didn’t expect to get her hands on her register this wa


    The n she took so much effort to concoct had failed. She had to behave like a thief and run


    around in the middle of the night instead of sleeping, steal the key and the box, and then return


    them in the end.


    As it turned out, all she had to do to get what she wanted was lie.


    Rosalie would rather steal the resident register and secretly file for a


    divorce instead of lying to Reba like this. If Reba knew, not doubt she would be heartbroken.


    “Madam, shall I send this document to your room?” Zane asked.


    “Just give it to me,” Rosalie said, as she received the resident register with both hands. “Thank you.


    I’ll keep it well.”


    Zane nodded before taking his leave.


    Rosalie flipped through her register, and saw hers and Theodore’s


    name on it. Their names had been jointly recorded in the register since they got married, and they


    would be able to file for a divorce with this document.


    “Rose, remember to return your resident register after getting your ID card reced. Got it?”


    Reba reminded her.


    “Grandma, why don’t I keep my own resident register? That’d be more. convenient for me. I


    wouldn’t need to keep bothering you for it.”


    Reba furrowed her brows. “You youngsters always misce your things. I feel more assured


    helping you keep such important documents. And you don’t always need your resident register. I’ll


    keep it for you, lest you two do something rash.”


    Reba’s solemn expression, paired with herst statement that Theodore and Rosalie might do


    something rash, told Rosalie that she would never let them keep their own resident register.


    She had made things so clear. Rosalie couldn’t possibly say anything further about the matter


    without raising her suspicion.


    Rosalie could only nod and say, “Sure, Grandma. I’ll return the resident register once I rece my


    ID card.”
