Chapter 67 Rodney Is Anxious
If he just let it go like that, would Edmond blame him when he woke up?
The assistant, with a brave face, wanted to say a few more words, but Rosalie impatiently pushed him
out of the door and slammed it shut with a âbangâ.
He walked downstairs in a daze, suddenly thinking of someone.
When Claudia received a call from her assistant, she had just finished her design practice and had just
picked up a glass of water.
âMs. Lloyd, please help Mr. Lamont, he was about to be forcefully raped.â
âPuff!â Water sprayed out of Claudiaâs mouth just as she took a sip.
What an exciting news!
âBy whom? A man or a woman? How long was the rape?â
The assistant coughed and said, âIt hasnât reached this stage yetâ¦â
âThen you should have called the police immediately instead of calling
me.â
âUm⦠because it wasnât someone else who knocked down Mr. Lamont, it was Ms. Clayton⦠Mr.
Lamont got drunk and is now unconscious, if it gets any later, Ms. Clayton will succeed.â
When Claudia heard it was Rosalie, her expression immediately froze.
âMs. Lloyd, Mr. Lamont⦠Mr. Lamont, he definitely didnât like being

treated this way⦠Oh, please, please help, save him.â
Hearing Edmondâs assistantâs plea for help, Claudia almost burst out laughing.
Wasnât Rosalie on good terms with Edmond? Why would she still resort to this trick?
She couldnât help but think of the first time she had been with Edmond, which had also been a series of
unfortunate events. The next morning, he was very angry.
That was the first time she saw Edmond get angry.
The assistant was right, Edmond, indeed, hated being manipulated by others.
Butâ¦
âDoes it have anything to do with me?â Claudia played with the pen her hand, smirking. âWe have
already divorced, whoever he is with has nothing to do with me.â

When Edmond was with the Lamont family before, he also got drunk occasionally, but very rarely.
Every time he got drunk, he would sleep deeply and no one could wake him up.
If Rosalie had the intention, she might have succeeded.
After succeeding, the next day Edmond definitely received his anger.
âOf course itâs over, Ms. Lloyd,â Mr. Lamont said earlier, âIf heâs in any danger, he told me to call you
first. He said he doesnât trust anyone but you.â
The assistantâs anxious words made Claudiaâs heart tremble-slightly.

Did you only trust her?
Did Edmond say this?
She glanced at her pregnancy test on the table and boredly put down
the pen.
Alright, Iâll go help him.â
I couldnât help, but watching a movie is not a bad idea.
At this moment, the gossiping heart was burning fiercely.
She took a taxi to the Lamont family.
In the Lamontâs manor, inside Edmondâs room.
The spa cious room was incredibly luxurious, with intricate lighting fixtures emitting a cold, bright light.
Rosalie stepped onto the comfortable and soft carpet with her fair and delicate bare feet.
She had already changed into a silk nightgown, with the curve of her neck faintly visible, exuding a hint
of allure in its pure clarity.
On the large bed, Edmond lay disheveled, with a furrowed brow and tightly pursed lips on his
handsome face, seemingly unable to relax even in his dreams.
Step by step, Rosalie finally reached his side.
She knew that what she was doing was despicable, and she knew he would be furious when he woke
up, but as long as she thought about the positive outcome, she was not afraid of anything.
She was willing to do anything as long as she could marry Edmond.
Thinking about what happened at the bar, Rosalieâs face contorted
severely.
It is said that people speak the truth when they are drunk. Edmond had clearly divorced Claudia, so
why is he unwilling to marry me again?
If he hadnât said those words today, she wouldnât have resorted to this plan.
Blushing, she climbed onto the bed and took off Edmondâs shirt.
The man had delicate texture, and when he took off his clothes, his strong chest muscles were
revealed, along with perfectly defined abdominal muscles that disappeared beneath his belt. Looking
up, there was his unparalleled handsome face.
Rosalie felt a sudden rush of excitement and her heart pounded.
She reached out her hand and touched from her abdomen to the belt. She grabbed the belt buckle and
gently pressed her fingers downâ¦
Outside the villa.
As Claudia got out of the car, she saw the assistant running toward her.
âMs. Lloyd, if you didnât come today, I would have really called the police,â the assistant pushed her into
the villa. âHurry, we donât have much time.â
Originally just watching the show, Claudia became nervous instead when he did that.
The wall outside the courtyard was covered with roses, which she had planted herself, and now they
were blooming beautifully.
She walked in quickly.

The traces of the fire in the villa had been completely repaired, and it looked no different from when she
left.
Looking at the tightly locked door upstairs, she thought about her divorce with Edmond. Her steps
forward paused, hesitating.
If she were still married, this would be a clear case of catching an affair. She could rightfully open the
door and scold the cheating couple without anyone blaming her.
But now, what role does she enter as?
People were already discussing marriage and engagement, so if something really happened, it would
be reasonable and
understandable.
What was she rushing in for?
Claudia suddenly felt a bit confused.
Thinking about Edmond and Rosalie doing that kind of thing made her feel uneasy in her chest.
âMs. Lloyd, why are you still here!â the assistant exclaimed in a panic.
âI⦠Iâd better not go in,â Claudia quickly turned around. âI have · divorced him, so going in would only
ruin their relationship, wouldnât it?â
Suppressing the discomfort in her heart, she pretended to comfort him casually, âI think you should just
turn a blind eye to it. After all, she will be your future boss.â
âMs. Lloyd, to be honest with you, I didnât want her to be my boss, and Mr. Lamont didnât either,â the
assistant said, looking at her with a determined expression. âAre you willingly going to hand Mr. Lamont
over to her?â

âIf Mr. Lamont and Ms. Clayton had a sexual relationship, how would you seek revenge on your
grandmother afterwards?â
The assistantâs words froze the smile on Claudiaâs face.
âMs. Lloyd, you have been by Mr. Lamontâs side for three years, and compared to Ms. Clayton, I trust
your character more. You would not falsely accuse someone without reason.â
âYou and Ms. Clayton, I stood by you.â
The assistant stared at her, and Claudiaâs heart trembled fiercely.
Even his assistant believed her, but Edmond did not believe.
This three-year marriage was indeed not worth it.
But the assistant was right, she could divorce Edmond, but Edmond couldnât marry Rosalie.
Once the Lamont family and the Clayton family got married, it would become very tricky for her.
It is not difficult to ruin one company, but it takes a lot of time to ruin two.
Since we have already come, letâs go up and watch the show.
After making up her mind, she climbed up the stairs.

In the room, the lights had already been replaced by Rosalie with dim ambient lights.
Rosalie knelt beside Edmond, her small hand covering the belt buckle, pressing it hard.

With a snap, the belt came loose.
When she was nervously trying to take the next step, she was stopped by a hand with distinct
knuckles.
Rosalieâs breath hitched, and she quickly looked up, colliding with a pair of deep, mysterious eyes,
shimmering with a dark glow.
Rosalie quickly withdrew her hand and didnât dare to say a word.
She covered her lips and lowered her head, afraid to look at the manâs expression anymore.
The man also remained silent, picking up the clothes and putting them on. With his fair and slender
hands, he buttoned up the buttons one by
one.
Both of them did not speak.
Silent and stillâ¦
Rosalieâs eyes turned red and redder.
She would rather be scolded by Edmond at this moment than torture herself with silence.
Her face turned pale, she tightly bit her lower lip, and her cheeks flushed bright red. âEdmond, Iâ¦â
Just at that moment, the door suddenly burst open.
âHello, is anyone there?â
