Rebirth: Dancing In My Destiny
Chapter 447: Distance

Chapter 447: Distance

Molly Wilson had told Rose that the food she made was good for her fertility.

Of course, Rose didn’t believe that, but she was too tired of arguing with her mother. So, she listens to her mother and eats whatever she cooks.

Even though her mother’s cooking was slightly different from what she usually cooked, it tasted equally delicious on Rose’s tongue. That’s one reason Rose can eat everything her mother feeds her.

But...

Unfortunately, not only does Molly provide food for Rose, but she also serves a strange drink she calls a ’magic tonic.’

The ’Magic Tonic’ was so bitter it tasted like hell. And after Rose drank it, she felt her whole body heat up. It was as if someone was burning a bonfire within her body. Gosh!

Rose didn’t know how her mother got the strange drink, but she had heard from Laura that her mother got it from Asian Town, a few miles from the city.

At least for drinks, Rose didn’t have to suffer alone since Evan was being targeted by her mother as well. However, Evan was very patient with her mother—he happily accepted the bitter tonic and said the tonic was delicious.

Evan’s patience and consideration for her mother’s pregnancy plans made Rose even more anxious because another month had passed, and she still wasn’t pregnant.

There were no signs of physical changes in her. Only her emotions are increasingly unstable. She is starting to get stressed.

Whenever Evan noticed her mood swings, he always made her feel better. He always said, "Wife, our marriage was not yet a year old. It was too early to do anything."

But, Rose was still worried, especially when reading articles about pregnancy. Her emotions turned like a rollercoaster when she read various A-Netz comments.

Rose’s heart ached when she read A-Netz’s comments, who shared that they became pregnant not long after the marriage. She felt jealous.

But when she read comments about a couple who had been married for several years and only got pregnant recently, she felt happy. Because many couples out there are waiting for their first pregnancy longer than them.

This topic of pregnancy challenged her mind and heart. In the past month, she felt exhausted. She had tried to loosen herself and forget all the stress, but it was still hard. She couldn’t ignore her mother, could she?

Even today, her mother came and busied herself in the kitchen—she came to cook for her.

Her mother treated her like a princess. She asks her to rest in her bedroom. But, just lying in bed without her husband tormented her — today, Evan went into the office.

Rose lay on her bed, scrolling through her phone to read Instagram. She tries to feed her eyes with beautiful images from the timeline of the influencers she likes.

Recently, Rose has liked to stalk travel influencers. They posted pretty photos from all over the world, giving her the idea to take a vacation with Evan after her hand healed.

Speaking of her hand, according to the doctor, they will remove the cast the day after tomorrow. Rose was excited. Because she couldn’t wait to visit her office.

While stalking her favorite influencer’s Instagram, she heard a knock on the door.

"Come in..." Rose looked at the door. Laura Martin, her personal assistant, came into view. "Laura... What is it?" She got up and sat on the edge of the bed, tying her hair into a messy bun.

"Young madam, your lunch is ready. Your mother told you to come downstairs...."

"Okay. Laura, please tell mom I’ll be down soon."

"Yes, I will..." Laura said and left the room.

After seeing the door closed, Rose rechecked her phone. What she saw on her cellphone nearly choked her — Pictures of Evan and Carla Miller have resurfaced. Someone uploaded it on Instagram, and of course, the picture immediately became trending on several social media platforms and gossip news portals.

Rose’s hands were shaking, too shocked by what she saw.

"Haven’t they cleared up this matter? Why is this photo showing up again?" Her mood instantly dropped to zero, like a broken kite that fell to the ground. She feels lost. The news managed to make her appetite disappear.

After trying to calm her heart, Rose threw her cell phone on the bed and rushed downstairs. She would put aside the gossip news. For now, she would face her mother first.

When Rose arrived at the dining table, she was shocked.

"Oh my god! My mother is finally back..." Rose grinned and quickly sat down on her seat. The dish her mother used to cook for her when they were still living in East City now lay on the table. The aroma suddenly filled her nostrils and made her mood gradually lift.

"I heard from Laura you’ve had enough of the food I’ve been making lately," Molly said as she sat in front of her daughter. "I’m sorry, Rose if lately, I have become a mother who is insensitive to your feelings. I have become a mother who demands too much from you. I’m sorry...."

Rose’s smile disappeared.

Why, why does her mother seem angry!?

She met her mother’s eyes and was shocked to see her eyes redden like she was trying to hold back tears.

Rose’s heart tightened.

"I made you disappointed in me, Rose. I know..."

Molly was devastated when she heard from Laura that her daughter was stressed because she was pushing her too hard to have children. It broke Molly’s heart. She never thought that what she was doing now would make her daughter feel stressed.

But what made Molly even sadder and annoyed was that her daughter, who used to open up to her, now closed herself off from her.

Molly felt that there was some distance between them. Her daughter didn’t say anything, unlike how she usually did when they were still living in East city. She missed the times when they were always open to each other.

Was it her lack of sensitivity towards her daughter that made Rose change now?

Molly didn’t understand.
