Chapter 45 PUNISHMENT

Chap. 45: Punishment

***

No one would expect Fred to ask such a question.

Even the air seemed to be frozen at that moment. Rosie felt like getting goosebumps all over.

"Astrid, do you agree with her?"

Perhaps only a few words could bail her out.

Astrid noticed the fear conveyed by Rosie’s eyes when she looked through.

Then Astrid raised her head with a gentle smile. "Of course."

Rosie felt like her body was drenched in sweat. She might be trapped in a phobia of such feelings from now on.

She looked at Astrid with mixed feelings in her heart, who seemed to keep on putting both constant pressure and humiliation on her.

Perhaps, even Rosie failed to notice that the more she disdained Astrid, the more distorted she would become.

She was bailed out by Astrid, whom she disdained the most.

It made Rosie feel like an idiot being saved by an idiot, while she deemed herself a genius, paralleled to Albert Einstein.
