" Rosalie , stop crying . If you keep crying , you'll really turn into a pig ! " Duncan blurted out the harsh words instinctively , awkwardly trying to comfort her . Rosalie choked back her sobs , wiped her face messily , paused her crying , and gave him a hard shove . Caught off guard , he fell to the ground . She snorted coldly and mocked him in a muffled voice : " Hmph , that's what you get for making fun of me . Now you're just as miserable as I am . You totally deserve it !

Otherwise , Julian and Angela will be worried ! " Even though he said that , she was still a bit reluctant . " Nothing will happen to me . Just explain it to them . Why do you want me to go back so badly ? Do you really want to see me embarrass myself in front of them ? Is that what will make you happy ? " " I'm not - don't think that way . No matter what you say today , I'm taking you home . " Duncan spoke in a tone that brooked no argument .
