Chapter 269: It's Not Personality. It's Lack of Ambition
"Soon? Are you sure?" Rosiley didn't believe him. So she interrupted Payton as he was about to
explain, "Call your bodyguards in and let them guard. Let's go home.”
Payton: "..."
Xenia and Rorey were dumbfounded as they watched the two burly men walk in front of them. The
bodyguards shot cold gazes at them through their sunglasses.
They had personal bodyguards!
Rorey was even more certain that Payton was not simple.
"Rorey, what should we do now?" Seeing this, Xenia immediately panicked.
"Mom, calm down first. Don't worry.” Rorey comforted her as she carefully looked at the two burly men.
She knew that her mother would not be able to escape. Therefore, they'd better accept the reality
calmly.
Then, she grabbed Xenia's hands and said, "Mom, listen carefully to me now. Since Rosiley has
already called the police, you can't escape..."
Hearing this, Xenia panicked, "Then what should I do?”
Seeing that she was completely panicking, Rorey pulled her hand and said, "Mom, calm down."
"How can I be calm?" Xenia shook off her hand angrily, "I'm about to get caught. You still want me to
calm down!"
Xenia was a little excited. She really panicked.
Originally, Xenia was certain that Rosiley had no evidence to prove that she had killed Seneca, but
now... Things were completely out of her control.
It was a great shock for Xenia. She was very different from the state she faced Rosiley before.
Seeing her mother worried so much, Rorey felt uncomfortable, and her hatred for Rosiley deepened.
If it weren't for Rosiley's push, how could they be so desperate to do such an illegal thing?
No, she couldn't let Rosiley feel satisfied.
“I'm going to jail. What should I do? What should I do..."
Xenia circled back and forth in the same place, feeling extremely anxious and uneasy.
"Mom!" Rorey shouted.
Xenia raised her head and looked at her blankly.
"Mom, believe me, I won't let this happen to you.” Rorey grabbed her hand again and looked at her
firmly.
Looking at her, Xenia gradually calmed down. “Alright, I believe you.”
Seeing her calm down, Rorey sighed in relief. Then, she turned to look at the two burly men. Rorey
leaned to her mother and whispered in her ear to avoid the bodyguards.
Xenia frowned at first and her face was full of reluctance. Then she was quickly relaxed and smiled
happily.
"Alright, let's do as you Say.’
Her answer undoubtedly reassured Rorey. As long as Xenia was willing to cooperate, then...
Rorey revealed a meaningful smile. ‘Rosiley, you wouldn't be at ease for too long.
On the way home, Rosiley kept looking out of the car window, as if she didn't want to talk.
Payton would occasionally peek at her. He did not dare to disturb her when he saw her looking outside
the car motionlessly.
"Payton..." Suddenly, she spoke.
Payton looked at her in surprise as if he had won a lottery. He asked, "What's wrong, Rosiley?"
Rosiley frowned, “What are you doing? Why are you laughing so happily?"
"Nothing." Payton shook his head, "Tell me what you want to ask."
Rosiley looked at him in puzzlement, and then slowly said, "I want to ask about your bodyguards..."
She pondered on the wording and said, "Are they all this offbeat?"
At that time, she suggested that his bodyguards could guard Xenia and Rorey, but Payton refused.
The reason was that the bodyguards were unwilling to do such a thing.
When she heard this, she was stupefied. Weren't they his bodyguards? Why didn't they listen to him?
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Payton called the two bodyguards and ordered them in front of
Rosiley.
The two bodyguards sneered at the same time. One did not give Payton any face at all. "Mr. Payton, I
was sent here to protect you, not to do such a boring thing for you.”
Rosiley was dumbfounded!
Nowadays, even bodyguards were such ... free spirits?
Payton spread out his hands, expressing that he had no choice.
Payton had no choice did not mean that she had no method.
Rosiley walked directly to the two bodyguards and smiled. She pretended to be innocent and asked, This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
"Brothers, are you afraid of Old Master Lu or Sachin?”
The two bodyguards exchanged glances and unwillingly replied, “Mr. Sachin.”
Since they were afraid of Sachin, it would be easy.
Rosiley innocently asked, “If Sachin knows that you guys don't follow my order, then you should be
very miserable.”
Two bodyguards, "..."
Of course, they saw the craftiness in her eyes and they can tell that she was threatening them.
In the end, persuaded by Rosiley, his two bodyguards compromised.
Payton could not help but feel that he had no status.
"Rosiley, that's not ‘offbeat’. They are just no ambitious." When he thought of how his two bodyguards
didn't listen to him but listened to Rosiley, he became angry.
Rosiley knew his grief and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't be angry. They're just smart. They know
they should lower their heads to the boss. When change comes, you should adapt.”
Originally, when she patted his shoulder, he thought she would comfort him.
However, Rosiley told him such a cruel truth.
Payton was immediately depressed.
In front of the red light, Payton slowed down and stopped the car.
He turned his head to look at the painting on the back seat of the car. It was a landscape painting. Its
artistic conception was
very good, and it was very beautiful.
It could be seen that the painter was exceptional.
It was painted by Rosiley'’s mother.
He looked at Rosiley. The first time he saw Rosiley, he was surprised. She was not the most beautiful
woman, but her gentle temperament attracted him.
Women nowadays were usually impetuous. There were not many quiet girls like her.
"Rosiley, your mother must be very beautiful, right?"
This is an affirmative sentence, not interrogative.
This meant that Payton thought Mrs. Tang was a very beautiful, versatile and gentle woman.
"Do you really think so?" Rosiley turned to look at him.
"Isn't it?” Payton asked.
Rosiley smiled and said, "My mother is definitely the most beautiful in my mind. However..." She
paused for a moment. "She
looked very ordinary. She was very ordinary."
"Impossible!" Payton didn't believe it. "You're beautiful. How could your mother be ordinary?"
"I get my parents’ strengths. Of course, I'm beautiful.”
Even though she said that, Payton still didn't believe that her mother would be an ordinary person.
After all, her painting was so beautiful.
When it turned to the green light, Payton turned around to look at the painting. Then he started the car
and drove past the traffic lights.
