Chapter 583

In that case, it might be better to go on the offensive and make the other party scared!

Elodia’s face turned sour, and Rosalie continued, “As you mentioned, I’ve been getting close to Calvin.

Even if I can’t really become a part of the Gunner family, it shouldn’t be too hard to get Calvin to deal with you, right?”

Elodia gritted her teeth, unable to retort. Indeed, if Rosalie really wanted Calvin to deal with her, it would be a straightforward matter.

Moreover, given Calvin’s current attitude toward Rosalie, she might not even need to make any special requests. Simply playing that recorded conversation for Calvin would likely be sufficient to prompt him to take action.

Elodia shuddered at the thought. She was already in a precarious position, and if Calvin decided to come after her, she might not be able to remain in Strico any longer.

Rosalie didn’t give Elodia any more attention and left the pantry with her cup of instant coffee.

Once she settled at her desk, a message from Lillian appeared on WhatsApp. Rosalie tapped on it to open the message. Lillian: [Rosalie, are you really dating Calvin?]

Rosalie: [???]

Another person bringing up Calvin. It seemed like everyone around Rosalie was talking about her and Calvin, and she had no clue about it.

Lillian: [You’re not dating him? The video is out, and don’t tell me you didn’t know about it!]

Lillian also sent a YouTube link directly to Rosalie. Rosalie tapped it to play the video and was immediately taken aback.

The video was recorded on a bus, with Rosalie fast asleep while Calvin stood beside her.

The person recording was likely seated in one of the rear seats of the bus, positioned behind Rosalie.

In the video, Calvin’s hand was constantly positioned between her head and the window. Whenever her head appeared to be about to hit the window due to the bus’ movement, he would gently protect her head.

His eyelids drooped slightly, and his fox-like eyes gazed tenderly at her. There was a faint smile spreading across his face, making him look incredibly endearing.

This was a scene Rosalie had no knowledge of from yesterday! Rosalie stared blankly at the video on her phone, unable to snap out of it.

It wasn’t until Lillian’s WhatsApp message chimed again that she regained her senses. [Hey, Rosalie, what’s going on? This video has gone viral today.]

With that, Lillian also provided Rosalie with some context on how the video had become popular.

The person who had recorded it had uploaded it online, expressing envy for the woman who was asleep in the video. The person mentioned that if she had such a considerate boyfriend, she would marry him immediately.

Originally, the person who posted the video had only around a hundred followers on her Twitter account. However, due to this video, her followers had suddenly increased significantly. Moreover, someone had recognized the man in the video as a scion in the entertainment industry.

As a result, the video quickly went viral, and the person’s Twitter followers had skyrocketed to hundreds of thousands and were still increasing!

Even though the person later deleted the video out of concern, it had already been reposted and shared in various places, making it impossible to stop.

At that moment, Rosalie could only be grateful that in the video, her face wasn’t fully captured due to her sleeping position and the camera angle. It only revealed a small portion, and only those who were familiar with her and knew her well would recognize her!

She replied to Lillian’s message accordingly. Rosalie: [I just found out about this video now. I’m not in a relationship with Calvin. I only see him as a childhood friend.]

After finishing the conversation with Lillian, Rosalie checked the online trending topics. As expected, the video had surged to the top of the trending list.

There were numerous comments, and some netizens even referred to her as the woman who had taken a scion on a bus ride!

Reading some of the online comments, Rosalie couldn’t help but feel nonplussed.

She thought that such gossip would naturally die down after a few days.

However, what surprised Rosalie when she returned to her rental home was that someone had come specifically to talk to her about the trending topic.

“Are you dating Calvin?” Alan rushed up to Rosalie and asked anxiously.

Rosalie was a bit stunned. The man in front of her was someone she had seen before, a friend of Jonathan’s, and a well-known socialite in Strico.

“Tell me, is it true?” Alan persisted with his questioning.

“This is my private matter, no comment,” Rosalie replied.

Alan was flustered. When he came across this trending topic in the morning, he was utterly baffled. He had witnessed how much Jonathan cared for her, despite Jonathan’s personal assistant, Carlos, telling him that Jonathan and Rosalie had broken 1.

But lately, Jonathan had been visiting Siren Nightclub every night, behaving unusually. Alan couldn’t help but suspect it was because of Rosalie.

Now, with Calvin and Rosalie getting linked together again, Alan couldn’t help but wonder how Jonathan would react when he saw this video.

“Or perhaps… had he already seen it?” Alan thought.

When Alan called Calvin at noon, Calvin’s response was also “no comment,” leaving Alan feeling as if he wanted to explode in frustration, completely helpless.

Seeing Rosalie about to leave, Alan stopped her again, saying, “Rosalie, I just need one answer from you. Are you really dating Calvin or not? If you are, I’ll ensure this video stays trending for a whole month. The entire country will know about. you two being together. If not, then you can consider what I said earlier as nonsense!”

Now, it was Rosalie who felt overwhelmed. With Alan’s determined attitude and capability to carry out his threat, she had no choice but to respond, “We are not dating.”

If this video ended up trending for a month, she’d be nationally recognized!

Just then, Alan’s phone suddenly rang. After listening for a moment, he furrowed his brow and, looking at Rosalie, who was about to leave him behind, he hurriedly ended the call and swiftly walked to her side. He grabbed her and said, “Come with me.”

“Huh?” Before Rosalie could react, Alan had already shoved her into his car. He started the engine and sped away.

Rosalie asked in a hurry, “Where are you taking me?”

“You’ll find out when we get there!” Alan replied with an unpleasant expression, hoping they would make it in time.

The manager of Siren Nightclub had just called him, informing him that Jonathan was currently there.

However, due to a guest’s misbehavior who had offended Jonathan, the manager was having trouble handling the situation.
