Chapter 41: Part of His Job
Although she had inherited memories from the original owner, this was Isabella's first time seeing Rosalie. Rosalie possessed a charming and endearing appearance. Her delicate nose and lips complemented her round, doe-like eyes, which were clear and radiated an innocence unique to youthful college students. Her fair, baby-soft skin appeared tender and smooth. She resembled a pampered, sheltered princess who hadn't seen much of the world, her naive and innocent nature evident to all.
"Chris, didn't you hurt your hand? Stop pulling!" Rosalie sheepishly tried to break free.
Christopher promptly dragged Rosalie over to Selena, complaining, "Mom, I just saw Rosie entangled with some hooligan! You should interrogate her properly! Don't let her be fooled by those shady people."
Hearing this, Rosalie was flustered and eagerly tried to explain, but her voice was too soft to be convincing. "Chris! You can't talk about Dom like that. He's not a hooligan! How can you judge a book by its cover? You decided he's a hooligan just because he dyed his hair, wears an earring, and has tattoos?"
At this point, Rosalie's eyes were filled with tears. It was as if she were heartbroken over someone devaluing an artwork she had painstakingly painted. She didn't dare to talk back, yet she couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "Many artists in the entertainment industry are like this too. Chris, you might not have any tattoos, but you've dyed your hair all sorts of colors!"
"I wasn't talking about his appearance! I was referring to his behavior! With the way he's actingโฆ"
Rosalie's face instantly flushed red. "Chris, stop it!"
Christopher didn't know what else to say. Visibly infuriated, he turned around and snapped, "I don't have time for this right now. I'm off to wait for Luna!" He then immediately dashed out.
With a disheartened look, Rosalie lowered her head but didn't forget to greet everyone politely. "Mom, Evie, Bella, I'm home. Please don't listen to Chris. Dom is a good man."
The Quirks were rather open-minded, as evidenced by their approach to their children's marital matters. However, they had already learned about Dom from Isabella. As Rosalie's family, they couldn't help but view her "thug-like" boyfriend with prejudice. Based on his appearance and behavior, he seemed like a hooligan. They couldn't picture their sweet, innocent daughter standing next to a boy like him.
Selena asked anxiously, "When did you start dating behind our backs? Who is he? Is he a student, or is he already working? How long have you known each other?"
Evian also frowned and said, "Rosalie, did you send a message to the driver to ask him to pick you up before you got on the plane? Did that man send you back? You should have let us know you were coming."
Chapter 481: Part of His Job (Corrected Section)
Rosalie felt intense pressure during the interrogation by her mother and sister, although their warm impressions eased some of her anxiety. She was incredibly nervous.
"It's Dom, Mom. We've known each other for quite some time," Rosalie explained hesitantly. "You guys know Madeline, right?"
On hearing this, Selena and Evian were more at ease. At least it wasn't someone with an unknown background.
Isabella tilted her head. Madeline was Rosalie's college roommate and best friend; they were practically sisters. She often visited the Quirks' home.
Rosalie was surprised. Madeline was unlike Luna. She had indeed changed, but she wasn't arrogant or overbearing, and she never looked down on others.
Selena asked anxiously, "Then why didn't you tell us? You know we wouldn't interfere in your love life."
Quietly, Rosalie told the truth. "Dom and I we agreed to start dating recently. I'd always been hesitant, but this time, together, we found out he's actually a wonderful person. He takes good care of me and is always the first to step up when we run into trouble. It's true, and I'm seriously considering" She was clearly in love.
Selena and Evian were still somewhat worried. Although they were relieved about their daughter being in love, they still doubted Dom's worthiness.
Selena cautiously asked, "Is Dom an arts student?"
Rosalie immediately replied, "No, he's temporarily workingโฆ " She was about to elaborate when Selena interrupted, wanting to know more.
