Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Conrad, Paige, and Angela instantly understood-Duncan had also been reborn, and Julian must have explained everything to him. The grudges of the previous life had already been wiped clean; as for the children's future, they would just let things take their own course. Conrad and Paige were able to let go easily. For ten years straight, Duncan wished he could stay by Rosalie's side every moment, never leaving her for even a second. He had absolutely no intention of giving Julian any chance to take care of Rosalie or to treat her well. No matter whether Rosalie preferred a gentle and considerate style or a bickering, argumentative one, she could only like him and no one else. Perhaps it was because, from a young age, Julian and Angela had always seemed like a couple in Rosalie's eyes. Even though Julian was good to her, she never thought much of it and only saw him as a brother-in-law. As for Duncan, Rosalie herself couldn't quite explain her true feelings for him. Sometimes she felt a flutter in her heart for him, but deep down, there was a voice telling her she shouldn't like him, that he was a complete liar, and all his kindness toward her was just an act. all! Unable to figure it out, Rosalie simply stopped thinking about it and let Duncan keep pestering her, staying by her side. On the day of the high school graduation reunion, Duncan, who was Chapter 27 always by her side, was suddenly nowhere to be seen. Just as she was feeling puzzled, Duncan, as if he had read her mind, sent her a message. "I'm preparing a surprise for you. I'll be there soon. Go in and have fun with your classmates first, but remember not to drink. If you really want to, wait until I get there." Rosalie was clearly a little happy inside, but she still stubbornly replied, "I'm not waiting for you." However, after entering the private room, she became both nervous and well-behaved. Several times she was tempted by the sight of alcohol, but she kept refusing. "I don't feel like drinking right now. If you guys want to, go ahead. Don't mind me." Her close friends weren't upset, instead, they teased her with a wink: "I know, I know, you're waiting for your Duncan, right?" "You two are so close. When are you officially getting together? The college entrance exam is over-shouldn't Duncan confess to you by now?" Hearing this, the other classmates all joined in. "Yeah, if you hadn't said you two weren't together, we would've thought you started dating back in middle school!" "Exactly! We even envied how close you two were, and your parents are so open-minded. It wasn't until we were in the same class in high school and you told us the truth that we realized the real situation." "But just looking at how protective Duncan is of you, it's only a matter of time before you two end up together." Chapter 27 "Maybe the reason he's late today is because he's preparing to confess to you!" Listening to her classmates teasing her one after another, Rosalie couldn't help but blush. She lowered her head, feeling a bit anxious inside. "Even though I do like him, I still feel inexplicably uneasy and afraid. I'm worried he's just playing with me, that his kindness is all fake, and that one day he'll reveal everything, torment me, and bully me." Naturally, her friends cared about her and spoke up for her, offering their advice: "Rosalie, you don't need to worry about all that. You're still young. Duncan treats you well, so just enjoy it. If he ever lies to you or lets you down, just dump him and find someone else." "Yeah, there are plenty of good men out there, lots of outstanding people in every way. You don't have to hang yourself on just one tree. If it really doesn't work out, my brother's not bad-I can introduce you!" "Right, right, and my cousin too!"
