Chapter 470
Early the next morning.
Rose skipped down the stairs, while Frank followed behind, carrying two suitcases. His gaze was fixed on his sister’s feet.
“If you don’t want to go to Haililand and prefer to stay in the hospital, then keep jumping around,” Frank remarked.
Sure enough, in the next second, Rose walked obediently.
She had made a complete outing plan with Edward. Nothing must go wrong.
When they arrived downstairs, Mr. and Mrs. Roberts instructed, “Be careful. Rose, do you have enough money? If not, Daddy will give you more.”
Before Rose could speak, Frank said teasingly, “Someone is paying.”
“That won’t do. Edward and I are different. How can we be the same?” William glared at his annoying son, Frank.
Frank disregarded William’s gaze and pushed the suitcase out to the car.
Rose said, “Daddy, I have enough money. I received some pocket money from Frank last night. If it’s not enough, I’ll ask him
for more.”
Grace said, “Have fun.”
“Okay, Mommy,” Rose said playfully as she hugged Grace, William, and Frank before walking out with a hint of disdain.
When she arrived at the courtyard, Edward was already waiting there. Upon seeing the Roberts couple, he politely greeted, “Mr. Roberts, Mrs. Roberts.”
William put on airs and spoke unhurriedly, his hands behind his back, resembling a dean. “Yes, take good care of Rose,” he said. If anything went wrong, it would be disastrous.
Edward replied, “I will.”
Compared to William’s fake attitude, Grace was much more polite. She calmly replied, “Hello.”
After the Roberts couple left, Frank handed the suitcase to Edward. “Take it.
he said.
Edward smiled and took the suitcase. He opened the trunk and placed it “e’re going different ways. Carry it yourself,”
“I’ll protect her,” he promised.
“Remember what you said. Protect her well,” Frank emphasized, with only one request in mind: for Rose to be happy and safe.
Rose thought, “We’re at the same airport. Why are we taking different routes?”
Ignoring his sister’s doubts, Frank got into the car and started the engine. Rose was left puzzled, but Edward understood her concerns. “Perhaps your brother boarded the plane at a different time than us.
et’s
go,” he reassured her.
Frank was heading to Sapphire City on a private plane, which could be accessed at any time without any issues. On the other hand, Rose and Edward were purchasing tickets. Although the Landor family also had a private plane, Rose was different from other girls. She enjoyed actively participating in life.
She felt that on the private plane, it was just her, Edward, and the captain, which made the journey quite dull. Buying tickets for commercial flights, on the other hand, offered the possibility of encountering interesting experiences. After all, wasn’t the beauty of life often discovered during various journeys?
After getting into the car Rose automatically buckled her seatbelt. Before Edward started the car, he apologized, saying, “Rose, I have a business meeting with a client at noon, so…”
Rose interrupted, saying, “Then go ahead. I won’t get lost, anyway. Are you going to talk in Haililand too?”,
“Yeah. I might be a little late. I’ll come back as soon as we finish talking. I apologize for any inconvenience,” Edward replied.
“Well, it’s just a small matter. It’s not like you’re going to another country to discuss something. It’s fine. Go ahead and don’t worry about me. I’ll wait for you in the room,” Rose replied, reassuring Edward.
Edward was taken aback by Rose’s words, sensing a deeper meaning behind them. “Okay,” he froze and replied.
When he arrived at the airport, Kyle was already waiting.
Seeing Rose, he nodded as a greeting. Kyle looked at the two of them with their fingers intertwined and had an expression of satisfaction.
A few hours later, the three of them arrived at the hotel in Haililand. Kyle walked in front of Rose with the luggage and went to the front desk to get the room cards.
After a while, Kyle came back with the room cards and handed one of them to Edward. “Business in this hotel is quite good. We can only book two rooms at the last minute. The presidential suite is already not available.”

Rose didn’t mind. When she was traveling in Artroyland, she also slept in a suite. It was just two rooms.
On the other hand, Kyle’s thoughts were not simple. He knew that Edward was too well-behaved. He could guarantee that their relationship was still pure and did not go any further.
After entering the elevator, Kyle pressed the button for the floor. The elevator slowly went up to the 12th floor.
Kyle’s room was next door to Edward’s. Before entering his room, he said, “I’ll meet you downstairs in the hall at twelve.”
Edward nodded and swiped the key card to enter the room. The room was very luxurious, but it was not a suite with many rooms. It was like a bachelor apartment with everything, including one room and one bed.
When he saw the layout of the room, Edward had already guessed Kyle’s motive. However, he could not expose it. He could only turn to Rose and ask for her opinion, “Rose, there’s only one room and one bed. Why don’t I go downstairs and ask if there are any other rooms?”
Obviously, Rose was also stunned. However, she quickly accepted the situation and was not a pretentious person. She had met the parents of both parties with Edward and had been talking to them for a long time. “So be it. There are two outcomes to sleeping on the same bed. We can sleep together without anything happening. Our hearts are calm and pure. Edward, you
can do it.”
After saying that, she even patted Edward’s shoulder like a friend, acting like a big boss. When she was done, she even nodded to express her encouragement.
Edward was not confident at this moment. Perhaps he was not as pure as Rose said.
After packing her luggage, Rose prepared to sleep in the room. She was too awake on the plane just now and did not fall asleep. She wanted to catch up on her sleep so that she could enjoy her time later.
The assistant beside Edward was quite good-looking, but he spoke very little. He couldn’t say anything more than Edward. It was unclear how the two of them usually communicated.
As she thought about it, Rose fell asleep. When Edward came out of the bathroom after changing his clothes, he saw Rose sleeping on the pillow. The blanket was not covered, and her phone was pressed under one side of her face.
Edward walked closer and gently turned Rose over. He covered her with the blanket and turned her phone to silent mode. He placed it on the head of the bed and rubbed her cheek. Perhaps it was a little itchy, and Rose touched her face with her hand.
Edward stood by the bed and watched for a while before quietly leaving the room.
