Chapter 1255: Sis, Will You Stay With Me?
"Your sister doesn’t have time to accompany you; she has her own things to do."
Rose Yates seemed very sad as she pitifully said, "But being alone really scares me! If my sister is here, I won’t be afraid."
Saying that, she actually turned and ran toward Scarlett Yates, reaching out to hug one of her legs: "Sister, please, accompany me, won’t you? I’m really scared alone."
Scarlett looked down, seeing a pure and angelic face looking up at her pitifully.
Rose’s fragrant and soft body clung to her as she sweetly pleaded, "Sister, please? Please? Practice the piano with me. I love my sister! Please say yes."
Underneath that angelic innocent smile, who knows what calculations were taking place.
If she hadn’t experienced it herself, Scarlett would never believe a ten-year-old girl could possess such deep cunning.
Rose was even more formidable than Scarlett had imagined. Her ability to stay composed far exceeded many adults.
In her heart, Scarlett clearly detested, despised, and resented her, yet in front of others, she acted like she adored Rose. When she saw her, the joy on her face didn’t seem the least bit fake.
If one were to rate someone’s acting skills out of 10, ten-year-old Rose Yates could score a 9.
At this moment, in everyone’s heart, Rose was like an angel. Not only does she not envy or reject a sister she’d never met before, but she quickly accepted and grew fond of her.
If Scarlett were to refuse Rose, would people say she was narrow-minded, not even as kind as a child?
"Alright, if I have time, I’ll accompany you."
Who doesn’t know how to act?
Scarlett also put on a gentle and friendly smile, bent down, and pinched Rose’s tender cheeks with a smile, "I really like Rose too."
To show her fondness, Scarlett reached out to rub Rose’s head.
Rose’s beautiful soft curls became messy under her touch, and Rose’s face immediately changed, her sweet and cute smile stiffening.
Rose cherished her beautiful curls immensely; apart from Old Master Yates and Noah Yates, no one else was allowed to touch them. So one can imagine her fury at that moment.
But in front of so many people, she had to continue playing the role of a pure and cute angel, squeezing out another sweet smile from her rigid face: "Sister is so good."
Scarlett pretended not to see the flash of rage in Rose’s eyes, rubbing her head twice more and insincerely saying, "What a good sister."
Rose was about to explode with anger.
Extremely furious, her little face turned red from holding back, unable to withstand Scarlett’s torment any longer, she quickly found an excuse to escape her grasp: "Sister, I need to go to the bathroom; I’ll come find you later."
With that, she let go and ran away.
She ran quickly, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
Watching her disappear faster than a rabbit, Scarlett couldn’t help but curl her lips. After all, she was just a ten-year-old child; Scarlett had overestimated her.
Right after Rose left, the doctor summoned by Old Master Yates arrived.
The doctor was here just to collect blood samples. Scarlett cooperated, allowing him to draw blood. After getting the samples, the doctor left in less than half an hour.
