However, Josephine still looked solemn. "Then, who's that man who looked exactly like my brother?"

Rose's expression became sad. "Who knows?"

Three days later.

When Rose was packing her luggage in preparation to return to her home country, Josephine had come out dressed in a white suit and had a straight haircut from who knew where. Her handsome face also held a soft masculinity.

"Sis, do you think I look handsome?"

Rose was dumbfounded.

"You were a good looking girl, so why'd you change yourself to look manly?"

Josephine raised Rose's chin and flirted with her lightly. "From today onward, I'll be the green leaves that protect you."

Rose grumbled with her pouty lips, "You're treating me so well that I'm almost suspecting that I've influenced your sexuality."

Josephine smacked her lips and said, "It'd be great if there were no Zayne or Jay in this world. Both of us, two like-minded girls, would definitely be soulmates."

Rose then said, "It's not bad for you to have dressed up

like this. This way, you won't get recognized by those ants in your Ares family who are hiding in the dirt."

On Rose's side, in order to not scare the pedestrians, she had also prepared props for herself. They were a mask and a pair of sunglasses with huge frames.

Then, the two of them flew back to Imperial Capital unscrupulously.

As the two of them only had little money left, they rented a cheaper hotel and paid a three-month deposit so that they could live more frugally.

They then moved in just like that.

New Year's Eve arrived as promised!

This day was also the birthday of Grand Old Master Ares, i

Rose was thinking about her grandfather who was in the hospital, lying in the hospital bed alone with no one to talk to. Her father had been overwrought by the mess of the company and Zayne, who was an uncouth person, likely did not even remember Grandpa's birthday. As such, Rose wanted to visit Grandpa at Grand Asia Medical Center.

She made a very delicate and small matcha cake for Grandpa by herself and decorated it with Grandpa's favorite fruits.

Before setting off, Rose deliberately put on a mask, sunglasses, and draped her hair. With her entire face almost completely hidden, she then went to Grand

Asia Medical Center.

It was still early.

Rose went directly to Grandpa's ward.

Grandpa was lying on the hospital bed. His face seemed to be slightly flushed compared to half a year ago.

Rose's tears could no longer be held back as they fell.

It was always her who had misunderstood Jay previously. In order to conceal her identity, she did not dare to visit him even though she clearly missed Grandpa very much in her heart. Now, she knew that she was worrying too much.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry." Rose cried out, "I only came to see you after so long."

The time period for visiting family members was limited, and the nurse had soon come to urge her to leave. Rose put the cake on the table and left reluctantly.

While she was taking the elevator downstairs, just as the transparent glass elevator door went down to the first floor, Rose saw Jay standing tall just outside the door.

In the hands of his assistant was a bouquet of beautiful carnations and a multi-layered matcha cake.

Rose seemed dumbfounded. She stood still, forgetting to go out of the elevator.

Jay's brows furrowed on his neutral face. Seeing that she did not intend to come out, he walked in with a sullen face.

The little girl who came in afterward pointed at Rose and shouted, "Mommy, she's so ugly!"

Rose was feeling a little embarrassed by this childish voice. She glanced at Jay in a hurry but saw him frowning and looking at her with an impatient look.

Rose then realized that her staying had delayed the closing of the elevator doors, so he was unhappy.

"I'm sorry," she said with a sore throat, then fled in embarrassment.
