Rosalind was transferred to the general ward after going into the emergency room.
The doctor said she was fine. The wound was not shallow, but it was not deep enough to require
stitches.
The main reason she fainted was due to excessive stress.
“Rose! You’re finally awake!”
Jean was crying beside the hospital bed, as if Rosalind were already dead. “I thought I would never see
you again!”
“That’s enough. Stop crying. Justin isn’t here anymore. Who are you crying so loudly for? It’s hurting
my ears.”
Shannon looked impatient and stood in front of the window with her arms folded across her chest. ”
Have you figured out how to deal with this incident?”
“What incident?” Jean wiped away her tears and asked in confusion.
“Hah! Is there something else that you’ve screwed up?”
Shannon clicked her tongue and looked at her ipetent sister with contempt. “You’re a bunch of
useless fools! I’ve already tried my best to help you. Could your daughter have been with Justin if it
wasn’t for me? Do you think a pea-brain like you will be able to marry your daughter into a wealthy
family? Dream on!”
Rosalind was also holding back her resentment. She was also ming her mother for not being
careful.
To supplement the Gold family, Jean sold the ne that Justin gave Rosalind. If Jean had not sold
that ne, it would not havended up at the pawn shop, and the Thompsons would not have put it
up for auction. This incident put a damper on Rosalind’s rtionship with Justin.
“Shannon, it’s also partly your fault!”
Shannon had always scolded Jean since they were children. Facing Shannon’s reproach in front of her
daughter, Jean felt embarrassed and angry. “Rose and I were ying along so well just now. We’ve
already defeated that little bitch, Anna, but your youngest daughter came out at the critical moment to
undermine us. If Carrie hadn’t gotten involved, we wouldn’t have ended up like this!”

“How did I know that Carrie would be in the bathroom? You two, Rose. I taught you better than this.
Why are you so careless when you’re doing something like this? You didn’t even know that someone
else was present!”
Shannon was furious. This incident was partly her responsibility, but she could only me it on
Rosalind for being careless.
Rosalind pouted in frustration and remained silent.
“Anyway, it’s a he-said-she-said situation. There’s no evidence to prove that Rose inflicted this
injury on herself. Rose, if Justin asks, just y dumb. Justin has feelings for you, so he’ll brush this
aside.”
Shannon rubbed her temples and said coldly, “If not, I have a way to make Justin forgive you for what
you did.”
“Thanks, Aunt Shannon…”
Rosalind thought of how M protected Anna earlier. Her face twisted with jealousy as she said, ” Does
Anna have a kid with Asher? Is that why everyone in the Thompson family is so nice to her? Why did
Mrs. Thompson protect her like that? It sounded like Anna was her daughter! If this continues, Anna will
go over our heads soon!”
Shannon’s face turned glum at the mention of M.
“M is just a mistress. I only called her Mrs. Thompson out of respect, but she dares to be rude to
me!”
“Yeah! Aunt Shannon, you’re Gregory’s legal wife. How can Mpare to you?” Rosalind was
ttering Shannon because she had to keep herself in Shannon’s good graces so that she could marry
into the Salvador family.
Jean sneered and thought to herself, ‘How dare she call someone else a mistress when she’s also a
mistress? If Justin’s birth mother wasn’t so stupid to be fooled by Shannon, she would never have been
able to marry into the Salvador family!’
“I won’t let Anna get her way by marrying into the Thompson family. What’s the use of trying to please
M anyway? M’s a nobody.”
Shannon narrowed her eyes coldly. “People will only recognize M if Wyatt Thompson does. I heard
from Greg that Wyatt Thompson is very difficult to deal with. He always cares about the family’s
reputation. Asher is his eldest son whom he trained as his sessor, so he won’t allow his son to
marry a country bumpkin! We have a long way to go. I’ll let that bitch off for a few days before I make
her cry.”
As soon as Shannon finished speaking, the door to the ward suddenly opened.
A strong chill permeated the room as Justin’s tall figure stood by the door frame.
“Justin…” Rosalind was frightened. She looked so pitiful.
“I have something to ask you.”
Rosalind clenched the bedsheets and nced at Shannon for help.
“Justin, Rose fainted from excessive stress and just woke up. If you have anything to say, wait until
she recovers.” Shannon hurriedly persuaded Justin.
“There are some things that I must be clear about.” Justin did not give in at all. His thin lips curled into a
cold and stern arc.
