A kiss for a thank you

After a long time of Rose standing and looking at Tobi, her mind drifted back to the fact that Rolan was here. She turned, her gaze settling on his face as he watched Tobi.

His expression was calm—no twist of emotion.

She knew what she was doing, and she knew her attitude was wrong.

But what right did he have to receive her kindness?

She couldn't forget the pictures Jenifer had sent her. Rolan was here to comfort her now, but just moments ago, he would treat her like she was his entire world—like he loved her, like he would never break her heart or let her down.

She almost fell for it. It was as if he was truly sincere.

But the memories of her past life told her otherwise. This man was a master at acting.

In the past, when he was cold to her, he always knew how to act just enough to make her give herself to him. And every time, she was vulnerable—falling for him again and again.
