The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116 

“Rose, this is a good opportunity for you to make a comeback!” 

Jean squeezed Rosalind excitedly. “You should think of a way now to make Justin come to you right away. You have to let him see this so he can completely give up on that little whore, Anna!” 

“But Justin is working now. He rarely went shopping with me on weekends in the past. It’s even less likely that he will come out now. Besides…” 

Rosalind’s eyes darkened, and she lowered her voice and said, “I just regained favor with Justin by saying that I have severe depression. I need to behave these days and capture his heart, so I can’t be reckless and cause trouble again.” 

“You’re so stupid!” 

Jean jabbed Rosalind’s forehead with her sharp nails. “He’s at work, so it would be foolish for you to ask him to accompany you shopping. But if you have a valid reason, it will be a good opportunity to get closer to him! You can’t keep being considerate. Men won’t like you if you are too obedient. They like a challenge. He will only feel important if you call him when you have trouble or an emergency. That way, he will feel proud and superior that you rely on him.” 

Rosalind’s eyes flickered. She actually disagreed with her mother’s words. 

In the past, when her father was powerful and the family was well off, her mother clung to her father like a koala bear. In the end, her father paid less attention to her mother. Patrick even kept several lovers and disrespected Jean in front of the servants at home. 

Jean had no choice but to endure all those grievances just to keep her title as Mrs. Gold. She was 50 years old, but the Gold family fell into decline, and her husband was suffering from chronic illness. Now, Jean only had the status of Mrs. Gold, but she was reduced to a laughingstock in the elite circle. Her whole life had been wasted. 

“I’ll call Justin later and tell him that you are shopping alone and that I couldn’t contact you. He knows that you’re not emotionally stable recently, so if he loves you, he will drop everything and come find you.” 

Jean held Rosalind’s shoulders and smirked. “When the time comes, Justin will hate Anna even more when he sees his best friend hooking up with his ex-wife!” 

After a meeting, Justin returned to his office and received a call from Jean. 

“Mrs. Gold.” His tone was cold. 

“Mr. Salvador! Has Rose contacted you?” Jean asked nervously. 

“No, what happened?” 

“Rose said she was feeling a little down, so she wanted to go out for a walk. I wanted to accompany her, but she refused. She said she didn’t want me to treat her as a patient, so I didn’t follow her… But it’s been a few hours now, and I couldn’t get through to her on the phone. When I called her again, her phone was turned off. Do you think something happened to her?” 

Justin’s heart clenched when he recalled that Rosalind had severe depression. He asked in a deep voice, “Did Rose tell you where she went?” 

“She said she wanted to go shopping in the newly opened department store near the KS World Hotel, but she didn’t say anything else.” 

“Okay, I understand. I’m going to find her now. She’ll be fine.” 

After hanging up the phone, Justin frowned, grabbed his suit jacket, and walked out. 

“Get the car.” 

Justin arrived at the mall as quickly as possible. He walked around in a hurry, looking for Rosalind while calling her. 

Finally, the call was connected. Rosalind’s soft voice came through. “Justin…” 

“Rose, where are you? I’m at Century Mall now!” Justin’s voice was filled with worry. 

“I feel a tightness in my chest, so I’m sitting in the elevator lobby on the second floor.” 

“Don’t move. I’ll be right there!” 

Justin strode over and found Rosalind as quickly as possible. 

“Justin!” 

Rosalind’s eyes were teary as she stood up and threw herself at Justin. “You’re here… I’m fine. I don’t feel uncomfortable anymore.” 

“Your mother called you earlier. Why didn’t you answer the phone?” Justin asked with concern. 

Rosalind hurriedly found an excuse and said, “My phone ran out of battery, so I was searching for a power bank to recharge it.” 

“Next time you go out, you must get someone to accompany you, okay? Don’t go out alone.” Justin took a deep breath and held her.
