Chapter 12 A Change of Attitude 53 % Finished " Why would you have such a terrifying suspicion ? Did the boss do something that gave you the wrong idea , or did someone say something to you ? " Orlando's three quick questions made Rosalie suddenly doubt the way things had been described in the book . She pressed her lips together , frowning in silence . Seeing this , Orlando said , " Madam , I don't know who is trying to sow discord between you and the boss , but I swear on my character and future , the boss has never had an affair with your sister - his sister - in - law . They've never even met in private , much less had improper thoughts . Even though you've had misunderstandings about him , the boss has always valued you and your family . At work or in social settings , he's kept himself spotless ." " Under the boss's management , Xavian Corp is thriving . There's no such thing as bankruptcy . " " He watched your livestream because he misses the young masters and cares about you . That's why , despite his busy schedule , he had me open the stream for him . In fact , he canceled two important meetings today just to do so . " Rosalie : " ... " Though Orlando spoke gently , she could still hear the blame hidden in his words . Christopher , out of fear of upsetting the original Rosalie , had always waited until she wasn't around or was asleep to return home and see the children . " Madam , the boss is truly a good man ." " So Dad really did ask you for a divorce ? You're not just trying to scare us , are you ? " Holden chimed in at just the right time . " There's no way Dad would ask for a divorce while Mr. Orlando doesn't know about it . He's Dad's most trusted confidant , " Alex added . Orlando nodded in agreement , confirming his role as Christopher's right - hand man . Under the gaze of all three , Rosalie grew guilty for a moment but quickly covered it up with a strong tone . " He hasn't said it yet , but that doesn't mean he's not planning it ! I'm just making my stance clear early so he'll give up that ridiculous idea . " In the book , Christopher and the original Rosalie had divorced during filming . Even if it wasn't now , it couldn't be far off . The hotel Orlando booked was right next to the amusement park . It only took about ten minutes to drive there . The sudden stop of the car dissolved Rosalie's awkwardness . When she opened the door and saw the professional styling team waiting , her mood brightened instantly . Talk of divorce and custody flew out of her mind as she happily followed the team into the hotel , closing her eyes to enjoy five - star treatment . 16:38 Wed , Sep 17 GF . Chapter 12 A Change of Attitude The two little ones quickly huddled together . " Do you think Mommy knows something ? " Alex whispered . 53 % Finished " Why did she say Dad's planning to divorce her ? Is her attitude today just an act to avoid divorce , or has she really woken up ? " " Does it matter ? " Holden shot back . Before Alex could answer , he went on , " Whether it's real or fake , at least the happiness we have right now is real . " " I just don't want to end up attached and then lose her ," Alex sighed heavily . Holden patted his shoulder . " No matter what , this change in her is a chance for us . " " Then why aren't you trying harder to coax her ? " Alex scolded , clearly unhappy with Holden's behavior that morning . Holden's tone stayed flat . " I'm not coaxing her enough already ? " Alex stared at him in disbelief . " You call that coaxing ? " " Don't you ? " Holden retorted . " I'm not going to act cute and silly like you just to please her . " Rosalie opened her eyes and caught the brothers through the mirror , facing each other with tension in the air . Are you two fighting ? " she asked . Holden glanced at Alex and gave a cold snort . " Would I fight with him ? " " Why wouldn't you ? " Rosalie asked back , puzzled . " Is fighting with your own brother so shameful ? Where did you even pick up this whole ' idol image ' thing ? You don't look like someone with an idol burden to me . " " You're not an idol , of course you don't have an image to protect ! " Holden shot back , unable to hold it in . Rosalie raised a brow . " I'm not an idol ? Then who is- you , or your dad ? " Holden turned his head away in frustration , lips pursed , cheeks puffed , refusing to speak . Seeing his brother flustered , Alex covered his mouth , laughing like a mischievous cat . The sight was so adorable it melted everyone present , even Orlando and the styling team . What surprised them even more was how easygoing Rosalie seemed . She stretched out lazily , enjoying her luxurious treatment , and said with a smirk , " Holden , let me remind you - you're five , not fifty . Stop pretending to be deep and playing little CEO . " Holden : " Are you saying Dad's the one pretending to be deep and acting like a CEO ?
