Chapter 396 It's Too Late
Roseane was stunned. Only then did she recall that Mr. Williams had indeed introduced her to a man in the education industry last night.
At that time, Mr. Williams told her that she could give teaching a try and she could also get to know Mr. Brown.
She didn't expect that Mr. Williams not only gave her Gellert's name card but also told Gellert about her.
She bit her lip, glanced at the three people in the room, and smiled apologetically. "Wait a minute."
After saying that, Roseane took a deep breath and turned to go out after excusing herself.
When she passed by Matthew, he directly reached out and grabbed her arm. "Who's calling?"
Roseane frowned and glanced at him. "Do I need to tell you?"
Matthew hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he let go of her wrist in embarrassment.
But he couldn't help but lower his voice.
"You just got here. Don't talk with others all the time. Spend some time with parents-in-law."
His words made Roseane roll her eyes in secret.
She really wanted to tell him that her parents were no longer his parents-in-law!
However, Mr. Brown was still waiting for her. She didn't want to waste her time arguing with Matthew.
Taking a deep breath, Roseane walked past Matthew and went out.
"Hello, Mr. Brown. Sorry to keep you waiting."
"Yes, I'm Roseane. Mr. Williams mentioned you to me yesterday, and I thought of contacting you after I've settled with my current affairs..."
Through a door, Roseane's crisp voice was getting farther and farther away.
Sitting in the wheelchair, Matthew's eyes gradually dimmed.
In front of him, Oliver and Mariam looked at each other. The couple looked up at Matthew at the same time. "Who... who is Mr. Brown?"
Matthew pursed his lips.
How did he know who Mr. Brown was?
Because he had previously misunderstood Roseane, he had already thoroughly investigated what Roseane had done the past few days.
In addition to the fact that she had gone to see Hayden before and failed to make a deal, she had only been to her rental apartment and Mr. Williams's home.
Her call history was also very clean. Except for Mr. Williams and Miss Williams, there was no one else.
How did she get to know Mr. Brown?
According to her words, was it Mr. Williams who introduced him to her last night?
Matthew couldn't help frowning.
Could it be that this old guy was still angry with him after beating him yesterday that he purposely introduced her to another man?
Even though he thought so, Matthew still smiled gently and said, "Maybe..."
"Maybe it's related to her job."
Only then did Oliver let out a sigh of relief.
He held Matthew's hand.
"Matthew, Roseane has been spoiled by us since she was a child. Just bear with her."
"She's just like a child most of the time..."
"Yes."
Mariam also sighed. "We haven't contacted her for a long time. I don't know why she quarreled with you..."
"Or is it because of Kezia?"
"Don't take it to heart, Roseane always thinks that it was she who sent you the message, not Kezia."
"It's been so many years. Don't mind it..."
Hearing Mariam mention Kezia, Matthew's face darkened.
Looking at him, Oliver quickly glared at Mariam.
"Why did you suddenly mention Kezia?"
"She has been dead for so many years. Things can't be made clear. Matthew will understand."
"Why are you bringing this up?"
Mariam was stunned by Oliver's scolding and quickly lowered her head.
"I was the one who misspoke..."
Sitting in the wheelchair, Matthew looked at the couple and frowned.
On one side, Xander did not take it seriously. "It's just a trivial matter. Only you still care about it..."
"Matthew definitely doesn't care about this anymore."
After that, he raised his eyebrows at Matthew. "Matthew, am I right?"
Matthew was silent for a moment. Finally, he looked up and said, "I still care."
His words silenced the family of three in the ward.
Xander looked at Matthew in a daze, his heart pounding.
No way, no way!
It had been so many years, but Matthew still couldn't let it go?
Hadn't his sister stopped talking about Kezia for a long time?
Why did Matthew say that he still cared about her?
The family of three looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
Looking at them, Matthew felt a little pain in his heart.
How badly had Kezia hurt this family?
Or was he really stubborn for Kezia back then?
Why didn't they even dare to tell the truth after so many years...
But he needed to confirm something.
He took a deep breath and looked up at Xander. "Xander."
"I need you to give me a definite answer."
"Back then..."
"Did Roseane imitate Kezia's handwriting, or did Kezia imitate Roseane's handwriting?"
Xander was stunned. He didn't know how to answer Matthew's question.
In fact, it was not that he did not tell the actual answer before, but he had said it too many times.
Once, Xander even fought with Matthew because Matthew misunderstood Roseane.
But he didn't believe it no matter what.
Later, Roseane told Xander not to investigate further as Matthew would not listen to him.
For the sake of his sister, Xander could only stop mentioning it again.
After all, Roseane was the person involved.
But now, Matthew asked this question again many years later.
Xander was silent for a long time, and finally took a deep breath.
"Since you asked me, I can't lie to you."
"After so many years, my answer has never changed."
"It was Kezia who imitated Roseane's handwriting. I have a lot of evidence. If you are willing to go back to the Comtois residence with me, I can show you."
"In the past few years, it was always Roseane who communicated with you. Later, Kezia imitated her handwriting and began to intercept the letter you sent to Roseane after she could fake it. Then, she wrote to you on behalf of Roseane."
"Then, she became the person who communicated with you after that."
His words made Matthew's heart ache.
He could even imagine the disappointment and helplessness that Roseane felt when she did not get his reply.
He lowered his voice. "Then why didn't Roseane tell me the truth when she found out?"
Xander rolled his eyes.
"Wasn't Kezia diagnosed with an incurable disease at that time?"
"She said that being with you was her last wish, so she asked Roseane to fulfill it. Roseane is so kind. How could she not fulfill it?"
After Xander finished speaking, he looked at Matthew helplessly.
"I thought you would find out, but you didn't find out at all. You even misunderstood Roseane after Kezia died."
Matthew lowered his head and nodded.
"It's my mistake."
"Your mistake?"
At this moment, the door was pushed open. Roseane stood by the door and looked at him coldly.
"It's too late."
