Sebastian had already made all the arrangements for going to Melrine tomorrow. They had agreed to leave tomorrow afternoon.


    Before leaving, Rosalie wanted to visit her grandmother because she didn''t know when she would return from Melrine. She nned to tell her grandmother everything and no longer wanted to keep secrets.


    Rosalie and Sebastian had agreed that Sebastian would have dinner with his family in the evening, while Rosalie would have dinner with her grandmother. They each went about their own affairs.


    In the evening, Rosalie drove to her grandmother''s ce. On the way, she received a call from an unknown number.


    As soon as she answered, an anxious voice came through the phone. "Rose, is that you? It''s your aunt."


    Rosalie frowned. "How did you get my phone number?"


    But as soon as she asked, Rosalie remembered that she had helped La with the hospitalization procedures and left her phone number. So, it wasn''t surprising that La had her number.


    "Rose, never mind that for now. Can you lend me some money?"


    "I''ve already said that I won''t lend you any money. You should repay the debt you owe yourself."


    If she lent money to La now, it would be a bottomless pit.


    "Rose, I''m begging you. I swear it''s just this once!"


    "I don''t believe your oaths. People like you will never stop. You''ve already squandered my parents''pensation and extorted my grandmother. I won''t give you a single penny. If there''s nothing else, I''m hanging up."


    "No!" La screamed. "Rose, I beg you. If you don''t lend me money, I''m doomed! Can you lend me one million? I''ll pay you back. Please, I''m begging you. Help me! For the sake of your parents, please, I''m begging you!"


    Hearing La''s panicked voice, Rosalie felt something was wrong. She immediately asked, "Who do you owe money to?"


    "Rose, I''m begging you, lend me one million. I''ll do anything in return. I swear I won''t gamble anymore after this. Please, just lend me one million."This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Rosalie heard La''s desperate voice, and wondered if she was in some kind of danger. If she didn''t lend her one million, could it threaten her aunt''s life?


    But on second thought, this was

    likely La''s trick. As a gambler, she could do anything. For money, she would resort to any means. If Rosalie gave her money today, she would be harassed with the same tactics next time.


    Rosalie shouldn''t start. If she did, it would never end.


    So, Rosalie gritted her teeth and said, "I won''t lend you money. Handle your own affairs. I need to go see my grandmother. I don''t have time to talk to you."


    After saying that, Rosalie hung up.


    A full minute passed, and Rosalie


    grew increasingly anxious. Was La really in danger? What if she owed money to some criminals and they were threatening her life?


    Rosalie really didn''t want to help La. She was a gambler, so no matter how much help she received, it would be useless. She said she would change, but the next time, she would fall back into the same old habits.

    But what if La died because Rosalie didn''t help her? No matter what, she was Rosalie''s rtive. She had to help La, even if it was for her father''s sake.


    At this thought, Rosalie called La, wanting to ask her the details.


    However, an automated voice message came from the other end. "The number you dialed is temporarily unavable. Please try againter."


    La had just called her, but now, she wasn''t reachable. Rosalie''s anxiety grew. Could something have happened?
