Chapter 844

When Rose heard that, her tense heart finally eased a bit.

After years

of companionship, Alyssa was no longer just the mentor who brought her a glimmer of hope in

adversity. She was not only a friend but also a family. Rose didn’t want to make Alyssa worry or cause

her

trouble.

Just then, Rose’s phone rang.

She glanced at the screen, and her eyes darkened. As she clenched the phone, her knuckles turned

white.

Seeing her mood turn low, Silas tactfully exited the room and closed the door.

However, he lingered nearby, eavesdropping on the conversation.

He knew it wasn’t the best thing to do, but for some reason, he felt a strong desire to care for her.

Besides, he could tell that, from the nightclub onward, Rose hadn’t told him a single truth, no matter

he asked. As a prosecutor for many years, he had developed sharp insight. So, her guarded thoughts

were

transparent to him.

In the room, Rose hesitated for a while before reluctantly answering the call.

“Dad.”

“What happened tonight?”

Rose’s father, George Emerson, spoke through the phone. It lacked warmth and emotion and was filled

only with the usual questioning tone and anger.

“Something happened, so the drinking session ended early,” Rose replied in a low voice.

“What thing? Don’t you know what’s important?”

At this moment, a sarcastic voice from a woman echoed from the other end. It was George’s wife, Lydia

Carney.

“I told you so. How could she obediently help you? You’re lucky if she doesn’t squander everything you

have.”

Rose tightly clenched her fists, her face turning as pale as a sheet.

There was one thing that nobody knew, not even Alyssa-Rose was the illegitimate daughter of George

Emerson, the chairman of the Emerson Group. However, her Identity had never been acknowledged by

Hearing that, Axel was shocked. “Wow! A close friend.”

“Close your foot! I’m hanging up!”

After that, Silas really hung up the phone.

Axel sneered and then pulled out a sophisticated, palm-sized, ultra-thin notebook computer from his

pocket.

Such cutting-edge technology was a standard issue for high-level operatives like them, but it was

nearly impossible to obtain domestically.

With this high-tech gadget, he could investigate many things

So, Axel investigated the license plate number of the luxury car. Soon, he had an answer.

“A car under the Schmidt Group’s name? Interesting.”

When Axel looked at the investigation results, he recalled the face that resembled Alyssa’s. He

narrowed

his eyes slightly.

“Ms. Altman, who are you really working for? Josh? David? Or Jameson?”

Meanwhile, Silas forcefully brought Rose back to his house in Solana City.

Surprisingly, the second son of the Taylor family didn’t have his own villa in the city. He lived in a single-

story house with simple decorations, which was quite unexpected for Rose.

“You can stay in this room.”

Silas brought Rose to the door of a spacious room. “There’s a bathroom inside, and my pajamas are in

the

wardrobe. If you don’t mind, you can make do for one night.”

“Why are you so stubborn?” Rose sighed in frustration.

“Because you’re Lyse’s best friend. I can’t just leave you outside.”

“Madam-”

“Don’t worry, I won’t mention tonight’s events to Lyse. I don’t want her to worry any more than you do.”
