Chapter 268
In the hospital room, Jean sat by Rosalind’s bedside while comforting her.
“Your uncle has pulled quite a few strings and spent a significant amount of money to hire
Hunter for your aunt’s release. It shows that your uncle cares about your aunt deeply.”
Jean spoke with a cheerful tone. “Thanks to Shannon, your marriage with Justin seems
almost certain! Didn’t he come to the hospital to visit you whenever he had some free
time? He also spoke gently to you. The relationship between you two has clearly
improved.”
Jean’s face was brimming with joy at the thought of becoming the mother-in-law of the
Salvador Corporation’s president soon. She asked, “You understand Justin’s temper better
than I do. If he really disliked you, why would he bother coming to the hospital to
accompany you?”
“Although that’s true, I feel vaguely uneasy,” Rosalind replied, her uncertainty evident.
Thinking of Justin’s cold and indifferent gaze, Rosalind could not help but feel
apprehensive.” Even though he’s been with me these days and taking care of me, I just
feel that he’s different from before.”

At that moment, the door swung open, and Justin walked in.
Rosalind swiftly took on a frail appearance as if hanging between life and death, tearfully
calling out, “Justin…”
He approached her with a stoic expression. She reached out, hoping to touch him, but he
unexpectedly stopped. Her hand lingered awkwardly in the air, and her pale cheeks
flushed slightly in embarrassment.
“I have to go back to the office for some business. I’ll come to see you tonight.” Justin’s
tone was still gentle, but with a chilly edge.

“Take care of yourself. Don’t overthink it.” After uttering these words, Justin turned and left
the hospital room. Rosalind tightly gripped the bedsheet, holding back the words she
wanted to say to him. The present Justin was not the same person who used to pamper
and protect her. Sometimes, the way he looked at her made her feel uneasy.
In a hurry, she signaled to Jean, who nodded and quickly chased after Justin.
Jean called out. “Um… Justin!”
Justin stopped in his tracks, giving Jean a cold glance before he asked, “Do you need
something?”
“In the past few days, you’ve seen Rosalind’s condition. When you’re around, she seems
more clear-headed, but when you’re not, she’s practically tormented by depression.
Rosalind has suffered a lot abroad, enduring all the hardships just to return to your side. If
you give up on her, my
child’s future will be ruined!” Jean wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
Justin responded, “I’ll take responsibility for Rosalind’s illness. After all, she once saved my
life.”
With that, Justin turned and walked away. Jean was left standing in contemplation, a cold
shiver gripping her heart.
