Work was heavy during that time, Royarch Capital went public for the first time, and Rodrick was as busy as a flying man.
Britney wasn’t doing much better.
But even if she was really busy, she would still come over to take a look before going to bed.
As if that could drive away all her tiredness.
At that time, she really wanted to be with Rodrick for the rest of her life.
I just didn’t expect that Bianca would move into that place before she did.
In the end, Britney just answered Federico’s question by saying she hadn’t found the right place.
Federico seemed to catch the hidden meaning, “You’ll run into it sooner or later.”
When she passed by the flower shop downstairs, Britney remembered that the last bouquet she bought had already withered and the table looked empty, so she picked up a new bunch of flowers and took it home.
The shop assistant warmly recommended the red roses to her, saying the quality was really good.
“Then red roses.”

As long as it was a flower, she didn’t really think much about it.
Beautiful flowers really could heal people’s hearts, Britney was in a great mood and even hummed a little tune before she went in.
But this good mood stopped abruptly when she saw the man in the
room.
Britney was kind of in disbelief. She looked back at her own door,
then looked at Rodrick.
I almost thought I was seeing things!
Didn’t she change the front door code!
The lights weren’t on in the room, so Britney couldn’t see the look on the man’s face. She just vaguely felt that he gave off a cold vibe that said stay away.
“You… how did you get in?” Britney was still pretty curious about
that.
Because I didn’t like that cold and gloomy feeling, I turned on all the lights in the room.
The moment the light got bright, she saw a flash of coldness in Rodrick’s eyes.
Rodrick looked down at her, his dark eyes full of indifference, “Even if you change it a few more times, I can still guess it.”
Britney felt like there was a ball of cotton stuffed in her chest, really stuffy.
I was pissed and decided to get someone to change the lock tomorrow, switch it to an old–school mechanical one, and see how he could guess
it!

Rodrick didn’t know what she was thinking, his eyes were all on the red rose in her arms.
The look in the eyes was deeper than ever before.
“Why is it empty here?” Rodrick narrowed his eyes, his voice cold as he asked Britney.
Britney thought it was funny.
Didn’t he notice last time he came?
It just showed that he never cared about her stuff.
“All cleared out.” Britney carefully put the flowers into the “vase.”
When Rodrick saw clearly that “vase,” his eyes grew even deeper. “You used this for flowers?”
“There wasn’t a vase at home,” Britney said casually.
Without waiting for Rodrick to speak, I went on, “You didn’t come here just to talk to me about what to use for flower arranging, did you?”
Rodrick really didn’t like her cold attitude, and he couldn’t help feeling annoyed.
He tugged at his shirt collar, sounding impatient, “How long are you gonna keep this up?”
Britney hissed.
My finger got pricked by the rose’s thorn.
The moment bright red blood welled up from her fingertip, she smiled.
To this day, he still thought she was just throwing a tantrum?
