Nevertheless, Rosalie was very curious about the piece of information that Charlie wanted to reveal.
Therefore, she suppressed her disgust of him and edged her body closer to him. She then said coldly," Hurry up then!" 5
Charlie purposely moved closer to her and then whispered in her ear, "Not long ago, Donald's brother-! n-law, Nelson Bishop, who was the boss of the Beggar Clan of Sudbury, was killed. His wife and a gang of the Beggar clan also became deceased." s
Upon hearing these, Rosalie immediately retreated from Charlie and kept a distance from him. She then answered coldly, "What is this? This was a hot topic before. Everyone knows about it.”
Charlie shrugged and added, "I thought you might not have known." 2
Rosalie stared at him in disgust. She opined that Charlie deliberately did so in order to take advantage 0 f her. 3
Fortunately, he had not gained much from her. Thus, Rosalie did not explode in anger. 3
After the incident, Rosalie had further let her guard down.
Charlie noticed that Rosalie had kept quiet. 5
He then deliberately moved closer to her and asked," Beauty, where are you from? Since I’ve let you know about my origins, you should share yours with me too.” 1
Rosalie answered expressionlessly, "Yes, you told me yours but that doesn't mean I have to let you know mine.”
Charlie laughed and said, "Come on, don’t be so cold. A beauty like you should smile more to look more beautiful!”
Rosalie rubbed her temples and said disdainfully, "I'm sorry but I need to take a rest now." 2
As soon as she finished speaking, she simply closed her eyes.
