Chapter 7 Chapter 7 A few people lingering nearby , drawn in by the unfolding drama , couldnt help but stifle their laughter when they heard Rosalies words .
They tried to keep their voices down , but Tiana still caught the sound , and her face darkened instantly .
From the moment Rosalie stepped into the company building .
Tiana had deliberately raised her voice to lure these bystanders over , hoping to humiliate Rosalie in public .
Yet , ironically , she had only managed to make a fool of herself instead .
In the Office of the Secretary , Tiana was nothing more than a secretary she never had access to important work .
The only time she got to stand in the spotlight was when Julian needed a female companion for a party .
After all , among the women in the Office of the Secretary , no one could compare to her looks and figure .
But now , the very thing Tiana had always relied on the one edge she thought placed her above everyone else had been reduced to a joke by Rosalies effortless , detached tone .
In the end , she was nothing more than an accessory , a decorative piece Julian brought to ordinary parties , used to entertain people he couldnt be bothered to deal with himself .
The more Tiana thought about it , the more suffocated she felt .
And the more she stewed in her resentment , the more unbearable Rosalies composed , indifferent smile became .

Even if Rosalies words had reached the ears of the man standing behind her , at this moment , Tiana didnt care .
She was already fuming .
Rosalie scolded with a smirk , So instead of overestimating yourself and meddling in my business , maybe go home , take a long look in the mirror , and have a better understanding of yourself .
Were not on the same level , honey .
With that , Rosalie turned to leave , having no interest in wasting another second on this pointless exchange .
But just as she stepped forward , Tiana suddenly gasped in an exaggerated voice , Mr.
Galloway .
Feigning surprise , she put on her awkward damsel in distress act , as though she had just noticed Julian standing there .
Without missing a beat , she unleashed her painfully mediocre performance , letting every ounce of grievance from Rosalies ridicule spill onto her face .
Her big , dewy eyes turned red at the rims , and she bit down on her luscious red lips , looking pitiful as she forced a tremor into her voice .
Mrs.
Galloway seems to have misunderstood my relationship with you .

Tianas words were carefully chosen .
By making such a statement in public , she put Julian in a difficult position .
If he denied any connection to her and reprimanded Rosalie in front of everyone , Rosalie would still be humiliated .
If he chose to tacitly acknowledge his relationship with Tiana instead , it would work even more in her favor .
From that moment on , no one in the company would dare to cross her .
She had envisioned a flawless outcome , but Julian completely ignored her words .
His eyes , devoid of warmth , passed over Tiana without the slightest acknowledgment and landed instead on Rosalies face , where a faint trace of indifference lingered .
The moment Tiana called out his name , Rosalie had already turned her head .
When she saw Julian and Alan looking as if they had just returned from a business discussion , she didnt waste time on pleasantries .
She stepped forward and got straight to the point .
The divorce papers are signed .
Didnt we agree to finalize everything today ? I waited for you at the courthouse for an hour .

Youre wasting my time .
Her voice was calm but carried a distinct note of accusation .
1/2 14:54 Mon , 3 Mar Chapter 7 This was the first time since their marriage that Julian had heard Rosalie speak to him in such a manner .
Though he didnt know Rosalie well , he was aware that the wasnt the type to suffer foods gladly .
Her patienes was thin , her temper quick to ignite , and the small reserves of gentleness she possessed were reserved for him alone .
Or so he had thought It was precisely because of this that he found himself momentarily unaccustomed to her cold demeanor .
Even the sharp remark she had made earlier in front of everyone , mocking his blindness in judgment , had shipped past him withou provoking his usual irritation .
His gaze settled on her eyes eyes that had always been filled with love and warmth whenever they looked at him .
Now , there was only detachment , a distant chill that sent an unfamiliar discomfort through his chest .
That unshakable indifference stirred something dark within him , an inexplicable frustration that he had no intention of suppressing He took a few steps toward her , closing the distance between them .
The sudden shift in his presence was oppressive , forcing Rosalie to instinctively tense .
Her expression remained calm , but she unconsciously retreated a little as the weight of his presence bore down on her .
