Chapter 27
Dwayne averted his gaze and said flatly, “You don’t have to trouble yourself over scum.“]
Then he turned to leave.
Dorothy, who was in her office, heard his words loud and clear.
Her face turned pale.
To Dwayne, Rogelio was indeed a lost cause.
The saddest part was that she couldn’t even argue.[]
It was the truth that Rogelio had severely injured someone.[]
She was Rogelio’s sister, and she knew him well.[]
He ha He had dropped out of school and often got into fights. But he had never been the instigator, let alone hurt someone this bad.]
So, she wanted to know why he’d hurt someone this bad this time.
She was very grateful to Dwayne for helping Rogelio. However, he actually called Rogelio “scum” in front of Sonia?
She felt offended indeed.[]
It was so typical of Dwayne.
In his eyes, the Acosta family was obsessed with money and would do anything for profit. He had always despised them.[]
Sonia glanced at Dorothy’s office door triumphantly and then caught up with Dwayne. No longer probing, she raised her voice deliberately. “Dwayne, don’t say that. Dr. Acosta is a nice person.”
When saying this, she thought, “Dwayne calls Dorothy ‘scum“? It seems he’s so disgusted by her.
“Maybe they know each other, but there’s definitely nothing going on between them.“]]
She linked arms with Dwayne with a smile. “Dwayne, will you come with me to pick up Brenden today? Then maybe we can all go out for dinner.“[]
He suddenly asked, “Did you see the trending topic?“]
Hearing this, she froze slightly.
She had hired someone to take the photo, assuming Dwayne wouldn’t care about the online gossip. To her surprise, the trending topic was quickly removed.[]
The message was clear–Dwayne no longer loved her that much.[]
But it was fine. As long as he was still guilty toward her, she stood a chance.
