Chapter 384: This Time She’s Really Jealous

Before long, Rose and Oscar went to Little Heaven. While Oscar was driving, Rose was busy texting Evan.

[Rose] Sleep?

But waiting for a few minutes, there was no answer from Evan.

Even though Rose knew Evan must be asleep by now since it was midnight in New York, somehow, it felt like something was bothering her mind, and she was a little disappointed.

Why didn’t he call?

How busy is he?

Rose is feeling odd. Usually, Evan always calls her all the time, even texting her many times. But today, no calls at all.

Rose leaned her head against the car seat and closed her eyes. But moments later, her phone vibrated.

[Evan] Just about to sleep. Where are you?

[Rose] Heading to brother Aidan’s restaurant with Oscar.

Just then, Rose’s phone rang...

"Hubby!? Y-you, call... You know you don’t need to call. I want you to have enough sleep..." Rose said. She knew that it would usually take a long time once they spoke. Worried that Evan would be tired tomorrow.

"I just wanted to say I can’t go back to Astington tomorrow. I can only come back after Christmas Eve..." Rose was stunned to hear that, but she didn’t say anything. She could only hear Evan sigh as if he didn’t like this change of plans.

"Wife, sorry... I can’t be with you on Christmas night, but I promise I will be with you before New Year’s Eve." Evan continued his words.

Rose was lost for words. She only held her phone tightly—her sadness suddenly engulfed her. And countless questions danced in her mind.

Why did he delay his trip? He was supposed to be back tomorrow but extended a few more days.

Why?

Why!?

Did he extend because of someone?

As a woman, it was clear she had instincts. And for some reason, that instinct made her feel anxious. Moreover, she found Evan’s attitude since leaving for New York a little odd.

This confused her.

"Wife, are you there?"

As someone pulled her out of her mind, Rose softly replied, "Hmm... I heard. Okay...."

That was all Rose could say for now. After the call ended, she closed her eyes, trying to calm her mind, but she couldn’t—she felt an extreme sense of suffocation, as if a huge rock was crushing her chest.

This was the first time she had felt this feeling since her rebirth; jealousy.

Although many memories with Dustin disappeared from her mind, the pain of being betrayed never left her mind and heart—still imprinted. They seemed to be buried in her heart because of the happiness she felt right now with Evan.

But...

The feelings of jealousy from her previous life, when Dustin betrayed her, are now slowly reappearing. The painful memory came knocking at her door, cheated by the man she loves.

Impossible!

There’s no way Evan, who loves her so much, would betray her, right!?

Rose tried to eliminate the negative thoughts. It had started to drown her in negativity and spoil her happiness.

"Boss!"

Rose faintly heard Oscar’s voice calling her name. She immediately looked in the direction of the sound with a shocked face. Now their car was parked in front of the restaurant, and Oscar was opening the car for her.

They have arrived!?

"Huh!? So... we have arrived? Why didn’t you tell me sooner?" Rose immediately got out of the car.

Oscar was speechless, looking at his boss.

Damn it, boss! He could only curse in his mind.

It had been ten minutes since their car had been parked, and his boss had fallen asleep. If it weren’t for him being hungry, he wouldn’t have woken her up.

"Boss, let’s go..."

As usual, Aidan Carter’s restaurant was always quiet, even at lunch. Aidan opened this restaurant not because he wanted to make money but to express his hobby, cooking. That’s why this restaurant never put any advertisements or promotions. There wasn’t even any eye-catching sign in front of the building indicating this place was actually a restaurant.

"Boss, I will greet Bro Aidan in the kitchen. You can go up to the second floor first...."

Rose went up to the second floor. She had been to this place many times and knew that the second floor was reserved only for Evan and his best friend.

The second floor was empty whenever she came here; she never met any other customers.

However...

Before Rose could reach the second floor, she heard a pleasant woman’s voice.

"Sorry, I can’t..." The woman’s voice suddenly made Rose stop in her steps. "I have to fly to New York this afternoon."

Rose’s heart tightened hearing the woman say, New York.

"Yes, Yes... hahaha, I know it, right!! Well... I’ll spend Christmas Eve there with him. He invited me to accompany him to a gala dinner with his business partner. So, I have to fly there..." said the woman happily.

Rose’s mind wondered if this woman knew her husband. But then, she shook her head and continued her step. She could only laugh at her strange thoughts.

How could the man she was referring to be Evan? It’s impossible. Or... is it?

Rose walked and headed to the table she used to eat without looking back at where the woman was sitting. But before she could walk away from the stairs, the woman’s voice sounded again. The woman wasn’t on the phone this time, but she was talking to her. "Miss... sorry, it looks like you are on the wrong floor."

Rose turned to look at the woman, surprised to see Carla Miller standing before her.

Instantly Rose’s eyes flashed in confusion. Why... this beautiful Carla Miller here?

For a moment, Rose was stunned at how beautiful Carla Miller was. She’s even prettier in real life than when she appeared on television and in magazines. This woman was taller than her, her ink-black soft hair hanging down her back, making her tiny face look even brighter. And Carla’s brilliant brown eyes stunned her.

Rose could only stare at her in silence. Unable to say any words—still shocked looking at a movie star in this nearly hidden restaurant.
