Chapter 175
“Speaking of which, you haven’t been back at the office for a long time. Those old colleagues miss
you very much. It’s good that we can meet you anytime in the future now. Since you’re here, you
won’t leave without meeting them, will you?” said Elodia while dragging Rosalie inside.
Rosalie nced at Elodia indifferently. She naturally knew what thetter was thinking.
In that case, she would just face it directly. If she escaped, then she would really be a joke.
“Tll meet them, then, Rosalie agreed without hesitation.
Her attitude stunned Elodia. After all, it was not what Elodia wanted to see.
After walking inside, Elodia pped her hands in the office to attract everyone’s attention. “Guys,
look who’s here. Our former colleague, Rosalie, is here to see us.
In no time, many in the office looked toward the duo.
Rosalie looked around and noticed those people included her former colleagues and new
colleagues she did not know. “Ms. Cresent, did this youngdy use do work here, too? Where is she
working now?’ a young colleague asked.
That question was what Elodia wanted to hear. Still, she put on a regretful look and said. “She used
to be the most promising newwyer here. Everyone said that she would be a topwyer soon
and many prominentw firms would snap her up.”
“Then whichw firm is she in now?” the neer asked curiously.
“Well…” Elodia looked at Rosalie as if she was in a dilemma, hesitant to speak.
Rosalie only felt that Elodia’s act was toome. It would be fine if Elodia wanted to humiliate her.
What disgusted her was that Elodia tried to humiliate her but still pretended she was being put in a
difficult position and couldn’t bear to say anything at the same time.

“I’m now a delivery woman of Aiden’s Diner. All of you are wee to ce your orders. I can bring
you guys the menu next time, Rosalie said generously, not as embarrassing and awkward as Elodia
had imagined. Rosalie even smiled.
Such a smile made her face look indescribably gentle.
Elodia secretly gritted her teeth and shouted in her heart with hatred, “Go on with that! I’d like to see
how much longer you can put on a show, Rosalie”
Elodia pretended to be kind and reminded Rosalie, “Rosalie, I saw your boyfriend when I went
shoppingst time. He dressed like a rich man. Why do you still have to make a living by delivering
food for a diner? Be careful and don’t get fooled. Many people like to show off nowadays. They
have little money but insist on pretending to be rich and may even owe a bunch of money on
various online loans.”

Rosalie smiled faintly. “All right. I’ll ask him another day.”
Elodia felt like she had been snubbed. It was as if Rosalie was not bothered by what she said at all.
Apparently, some neers in the firm did not know why Rosalie switched her job from awyer to
a delivery woman. When Rosalie turned around and walked toward the firm’s exit, she heard
someone behind her asking that question.
Needless to say, the person who answered was Elodia. She seemed to deliberately raise her voice,
saying that Rosalie was sentenced to jail for killing someone while drunk driving.
Rosalie smiled faintly and mused, “Was Elodia trying to humiliate me to make up for her frustration
of being suppressed by me in the past few years? It’s true that you may not be able to see people
for who they really are when you are in your glorious moment, but you will surely see them clearly
when you are having a hard time.”
Just as Rosalie walked out of the office and went to the elevator, a series of rapid footsteps
suddenly sounded behind her, followed by a voice. “Rosalie, wait a minute!”
Rosalie turned around and saw a man hurrying over. He stopped before her and gazed at her with
an obscure look.
The man in his thirties had a standard figure and average look. He was dressed in a suit, just like
those city social elites usually wear.
“Yes?” Rosalie looked at the old colleague. The man used to work with her in the firm, and rumor
had been going around the firm for some time that he liked her. However, she was already in a
rtionship with Zachary at that time and did not take such a rumor seriously.
The rumor gradually stopped after that.
Meanwhile, Zayden Hill looked at the woman before him. Although she still had the same
appearance, her temperament had changed entirely. Her previous energetic and radiant look had
turned stoic and downcast.
Even the light in her eyes seemed to be suppressed by something.
“If… If you have any difficulties, you cane to me. I will definitely try my best to help you, Zayden
said sincerely.
Rosalie only felt it was ironic. Back then, no one in thew firm dared to take over herwsuit. Lillian
had also visited thew firm for Rosalie many times but had always returned home in
disappointment.
“I don’t think I need your help right now,” Rosalie replied.
Zayden hurriedly said, “It’ll not be a long-term job for you to be a delivery woman. Maybe I can ask
my friend to introduce you to a better job. You can earn a good ie and don’t have to undergo
hardship like this.”
“Introducing me to a job?” Rosalie slightly curled her lips. “Have you forgotten who was the
deceased victim in my case? It’s Mnie Hamilton, Jonathan Youngblood’s fiancée. Are you not
afraid?”
Zayden seemed somewhat embarrassed. “Sorry that I didn’t do anything about yourwsuit back
then. In fact, I have been regretting it these years. Now that you are released, I only want to help
you as much as I can.”
“You don’t have to apologize for not helping me back then. It’s normal for people to seek benefits
and avoid harm. It was at favor to help me at that time, and no one should be med for not helping
me. But I’ve gone through all of that now. There’s no need for you to help me anymore.”
After Rosalie finished her words, the elevator happened to arrive. The door opened, and she walked
into it.
Zayden watched the elevator door slowly close with a deste expression, slowly clenching his
hands into fists.
In truth, he had an impulse to take over Rosalie’s case and help her back then.
He knew she was definitely not a person who would drink and drive. She even often reminded the
surrounding people not to drive after drinking alcohol.
