Chapter 72 I’m Asking You, Is Love a Burden?
Before the class ended, Rosa had told Miranda that she would leave with Mr. Wright today.
Miranda wished her well and asked for an invitation to her wedding as soon as possible after they graduated.
Her words made Rosa blush.
There were none of Mr. Wright’s class for the entire day.
Which made her miss him very much.
Therefore, Rosa rushed to their appointed place full of enthusiasm.
“Why are you in such a hurry? It’s not good if you fall!” Andy said hurriedly.
Rosa chuckled and felt a little embarrassed.
“Rosa, let’s go out for dinner tonight!” He fastened the seat belt for her.
He tilted his head slightly and looked at her. “I called Cecil and already ordered takeout for him. You’re not angry, right?”
Rosa frowned and asked, “Eat out?”
She frowned slightly.
The last time he said that, he brought her back to his home.
“Don’t worry, I won’t take you to my home. We’re really going out for dinner this time. Well, how about hotpot? Or barbecue? Or Korean food?”
“Let’s have hotpot!” Rosa said with a smile.
“Okay!”
Then they drove straight to the hotpot restaurant.
Halfway through, Cecil called Rosa and told her that the takeout had been delivered. He also asked her to thank Mr. Wright. He ordered too many things for him and he couldn’t finish all of them.
“Cecil said thanks!” Rosa hung up the phone and said.
“Sorry, I know you don’t usually let Cecil eat junk food, but this time I ordered dishes from a proper restaurant for him, so you don’t have to worry!
Andy was a little afraid that she would worry about it, so he had to explain it to her.
After all, he felt a little bad for not bringing Cecil out for dinner.
“I know. I just heard on the phone that the food was delicious. He even asked me to learn the recipe!” Rosa knew that Andy was sincere towards her brother.
“Your cooking tastes better than the food from restaurants. I’m so lucky to be able to eat good food in the future!” He said with a chuckle.
Rosa immediately lowered her head and felt a little embarrassed.
His words implied that they would still be together in the future!
They arrived at the hotpot restaurant shortly.
After getting out of the car, Andy took her hand and walked straight towards the second floor of the restaurant.
The waiter brought over the menu shortly. Andy ordered the dishes while Rosa waited patiently for the meal.
“Okay, please wait for a moment!” The waiter said and left.
Rosa looked around, thinking that this hotpot restaurant looked pretty fancy.
Soon, the soup was served.
Then, they served beef, shrimp, fish slices, as well as a variety of vegetables.
Seeing the waiter placing down a lot of dishes on the tray, Rosa frowned and whispered, “You ordered too much… Are you sure we can finish it?”
“It’s okay. Eat slowly!” He smiled and said, “Just eat whatever you like!”
Rosa hurriedly said, “I like to eat tofu skin…”
“Okay!” Andy smiled and put the tofu skin into the pot.
Then, he put in more vegetables.
For the first time, Rosa felt like a princess.
Andy had been serving her food the entire time, which made her feel very embarrassed.
“Rosa…” Andy called her.
“Hmm?” She had a meatball in her mouth, making her cheeks round which looked incredibly cute.
“Look at you, eat slowly!” He grabbed a wet tissue on the table and gently wiped the corners of her mouth.
Rosa shook her head with satisfaction and said, “It’s delicious. So delicious!”
“Slow down, there are still many more!”
“You should eat too. It’s delicious!” She said with a smile.
She looked like an innocent fairy, which was incredibly adorable.
Andy could only hold back his words.
“Forget it, I’ll let her fill her stomach first!”
“Hic…” Rosa burped with satisfaction after finishing the meal. She looked at Andy with some embarrassment and said, “Was I… too careless about my image?”
Andy shook his head and said, “No, you look so cute!”
The two of them sat for a while before they left with their car.
Along the way, Andy kept holding her hand at every opportunity, fearing that she would disappear.
However, Rosa was a little anxious. She felt that it was not safe for him to drive like this.
But she was reluctant to pull her hand away, because she thought it was really sweet.
After the 40 minutes journey, they parked the car downstairs.
After Andy stopped the car, he got off and opened the door for her.
Rosa got off with her schoolbag in hand, looking at him and chuckled as she said, “Thank you. I’ve had a great meal tonight!”
Andy didn’t say anything and kept his eyes on her.
“What are you looking at?” Rosa tilted her head and asked with a smile.
Andy pursed his lips and reached out to grab her hand. “Rosa… If one day I become penniless, will you… still like me?”
Rosa was stunned, her expression with a trace of doubt. She frowned and said, “I like you not because of your family, but because you’re you!”
Andy immediately grinned and held her tightly in his arms.
How could he ever give up on this little cutie?
“See you tomorrow morning!” After a while, he let go of her reluctantly.
“Okay, drive safely!” Rosa waved at him.
Andy turned the car around, and the smile on his face turned bitter.
He was very confused now and didn’t know what to do.
“Bye-bye. Be careful on the way!”
Rosa only went home after his car went out of sight.
Opening the door with her key, Rosa shouted, “Cecil, your sister is home!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she took her bag into the room.
“Sister, guess who came to visit you?” Cecil’s said as he chuckled from the room.
Rosa picked up the jar in her room and poured some water.
As she took a sip, she walked to the small room with a smile and said, “It must be Grace!”
She said as she pushed open the door. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
With a “clang”, the cup in her hand dropped to the ground and got smashed into pieces.
Rosa’s jaw dropped as she saw the person sitting next to Cecil and was stunned in place.
“Rosa, you’re back?” The person smiled, looking noble.
The corner of Rosa’s mouth twitched, and she didn’t know where to look. “Mrs… Mrs Wright, why are you here?”
“Don’t blame Cecil. I asked Cecil to open the door. You went to eat with Andy. I don’t know when you will come back, so I came here to wait for you at home!” It was Andy’s mother, Celestine, who was speaking.
“Sister, what’s wrong?” Cecil pushed his wheelchair over.
“No… nothing!” Rosa was very uncomfortable.
Cecil glanced at Celestine and then at his sister. He then asked in a low voice, “Sister, isn’t this… Mr. Wright’s mother?”
“Yes, yes!” Rosa nodded.
“Sister, Mrs. Wright is a nice person. She has been chatting with me and discussing my web novel’s plot. She cares about your life too!” Cecil had a good impression of Celestine.
Rosa bit her lip. “Is that so?”
“Sister, what’s wrong?” Seeing that she did not speak, Cecil pushed the wheelchair forward.
“Don’t move. I’ll clean it up!” Rosa came to her senses and quickly cleaned the broken cup with a broom.
At this time, Celestine came out and said, “It’s indeed a little abrupt, but I want to talk to you.”
Rosa’s hand that was holding the broom couldn’t help but tremble. She quickly put everything back in place.
She turned to look at her and said, “Mrs. Wright… we have a coffee shop near our neighbourhood. They have really nice ambience. Let’s go and talk there!”
She would never forget how she humiliated her.
She knew better than anyone else that the reason she had come to look for her was not to acknowledge her.
She didn’t want Cecil to worry about her, nor did she want him to hear anything bad.
As soon as she finished her words, she looked at Cecil and said, “Cecil, study hard. I have faith in you!”
“Thank you, Mrs. Wright!” Cecil smiled.
Rosa frowned, closed the door, and followed her downstairs.
A cafe had just opened near the community. The business was not bad. The elegant atmosphere, as well as the budget, was suitable for couples to come here.
Rosa and Celestine found a seat by the window.
“What would you like to order?” The waiter hurried forward and asked with a smile.
“A cup of Blue Mountain, with a dessert!” As soon as Celestine finished speaking, she looked at Rosa and asked, “What about you, miss?”
“Give me a glass of lemonade, thank you!” Rosa looked at the waiter and said.
“Okay, please wait for a moment!”
Their order was served in a while.
Rosa was a little nervous as she held the cup of lemonade.
“Rosa, Andy doesn’t know that I came to see you this time!” Celestine went straight to the point.
Rosa lowered her head and did not speak.
“I came here today for one simple reason. I hope you can leave Andy!”
Rosa held the cup tightly and bit her lip. Then she looked up at her and said, “Mrs. Wright, I know that you don’t like me. I’m not from a great family. But we love each other sincerely. He told me that no matter what happens, we will never be separated!”
At this moment, she looked firm.
“Ha, Miss Lopez, let me ask you, is love a burden?” Her gaze was cold and she sounded harsh.
Rosa was a little embarrassed. She understood what she meant.
She was a burden. Besides, she also had a younger brother who was ill…
“I know that what I said is very cruel, but no matter what era we’re in, only two in equal will last. You and Andy don’t belong in the same world. You won’t end up well with him!”
Rosa’s face turned pale and her lips started to tremble.
After a while, she said in a low voice, “Mrs. Wright… if you want to stop us, then let him be the one who breaks up with me. If he wants to break up, then I definitely won’t cling onto him!”
Celestine frowned and her eyes immediately turned cold. “What do you mean? You just don’t want to give up, do you?”
Rosa looked up at her and said, “Mrs. Wright, Being equal is important, but… love also plays a crucial part, doesn’t it? It’s unfair for him to marry Miss Roberts if it’s all for business!”
“Ha.” Celestine sneered.
“It’s unfair? Then I’ll ask you, is your love fair? Do you know that your so-called ‘love’ will destroy the Wright family completely?”
