"Rosalyn Left the Prison Alone: Why did Brian choose Joanne, who he hadn't seen for 14 years?"
The first section of the report helped everyone recall what had happened before Rosalyn was sent to prison.
Firstly, Brian and Joanne had met 15 years ago. And then, 15 years later, Rosalyn tried her best to create rumors about her and Brian, trying to keep him with her using the rumors?
Unfortunately, Rosalyn miscalculated.
She never thought that Brian would marry Joanne so quickly.
At that time, Brian and Joanne had not seen each other for 14 years. Joanne was just a normal medical examiner specially hired by the police station. Her life was simple and transparent. She either worked overtime or stayed in her apartment. Even if she had a best friend like Freya, she never attended a gathering of socialites.
As for Rosalyn, no matter what her temper was like, her acting skills were really remarkable. She was praised by many domestic and international directors and had a deep-rooted "Queen" image in the fans' hearts. She had a profound impression among the folks.
The most important thing was that Rosalyn had almost stepped into Hollywood at that time.
In this way, no matter how one looked at it, Rosalyn was more dazzling. Everyone thought that Brian would definitely be with Rosalyn.
However, the results were that Rosalyn ruined her own future after Brian got married, and her image was in a disastrous state.
According to the report and analysis, all of this was a result of Rosalyn's character. She was used to winning and subconsciously thought that Brian should be hers.
Therefore, after Brian and Joanne got married, she slowly lost herself because of jealousy and resentment. Her ferocious face gradually showed, and her queen image gradually collapsed. Finally, she embarked on a road of no return and ruined her originally bright future.
On the other hand, Joanne's feelings for Brian were no less than Rosalyn's. However, even when the rumors about Brian and Rosalyn seemed so real, she did not do anything excessive. She even achieved better results at work.
Most importantly, Joanne kept a low profile.
When Rosalyn was popular, she was also keen on charity. Her public relations team did not miss any opportunity to make a hot topic. Each time, they prepared a detailed notice and sent it to the media.
Popularity equaled justice. At that time, Rosalyn was famous enough and it seemed that everything she did was natural, so no one thought that she was hyping it up.
But in contrast, Joanne kept a really low profile.
After returning to China, Joanne anonymously sponsored several college students' studies. During her pregnancy, she donated plenty of money to support primary education in remote areas. What she did at once was more than what Rosalyn had done in several times.
Joanne did not appear in front of the media often but every time she did she was gentle and modest. She was not a good Young Miss with no bottom line. In the face of the media's harassment, she had never been weak or compromised.
When Lambert Group was in a crisis and Brian was in trouble, she did not hesitate to take the blame and almost lose Brian forever to help him tide through the difficulties.
As for Rosalyn, she took advantage of Brian's reputation and gained both fame and fortune, but she had never done anything for Brian.
Therefore, it was not surprising that Brian would choose Joanne.
And Rosalyn, she was released from prison on the day Joanne gave birth to the twins, which was more like irony from fate.
It was because of the spread of this report that the public opinion completely tilted towards Joanne. Rosalyn completely lost all support. She didn't get much attention when she was released from prison and no one cared about her future or whether or not she would return to the entertainment circle.
With a "Bang", Rosalyn closed the computer and swept away everything on the table.
For a moment, the sound of objects colliding with the solid wooden floor kept ringing, just like Rosalyn's messy thoughts at the moment.
She had already guessed that according to the usual style of the media, at this moment, they would be surely comparing Joanne's fate with hers.
But she didn't expect that the media would compare more in terms of her character with Joanne's. They also dug up the matter of Joanne's donation and completely guided the public opinion.
Not only did she not occupy any part of the page but the focus of the public discussion was also transferred towards Joanne.
It was the biggest irony for her who had always been on the front page.
Just when Rosalyn's anger was at its peak, her mobile phone rang.
She was extremely familiar with the number displayed on the screen.
It was this number's owner who made her connected with something that disgraced her name and destroyed her original bright future as a star.
When she was serving her sentence, she swore that she would never have anything to do with this person after she came out.
But now, it seemed that no one could compete with Brian except for this person.
Moreover, this person regarded Brian as a thorn in his flesh. If she wanted to take revenge on Joanne, making use of this person's strength would be the quickest way.
In the end, Rosalyn still picked up Rowdy's call.
A long time later, when Rosalyn would think of this moment, she realized that the first time she agreed to cooperate with Rowdy was a mistake. But even after she bore the consequences of the mistake she had made, she still made the same mistake again.
The media was right. In the face of jealousy and resentment, she couldn't control her emotions at all.
However, at the moment, Rosalyn not only did not realize how stupid her decision was but also treated Rowdy who was on the other end of the phone as her savior.
"You're finally out." Rowdy's voice came through the phone. "You must be having a hard time these days, right?"
"What do you think?" Rosalyn sneered and said, "Well, it's all thanks to you."
"It can't all be blamed on me," Rowdy said. "Don't forget that later on, you were the one who asked me to help you."
Rosalyn's beautiful eyes dimmed. After a long time, she asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
"I want to tell you something that you would absolutely want to participate in." Rowdy didn't continue the topic deliberately. "Are you interested in meeting and talking in detail? I will send someone to pick you up."
Rosalyn was surprised. "Do you know where I am?"
"Not only me but Brian also knows." After a pause, Rowdy said, "Forget it, I'd better tell you directly. Since you just came out, Brian has sent someone to keep an eye on you."
"He..." Rosalyn knew it was impossible. But at the moment a glimmer of hope arose in her heart.
"Don't suppose that he cares about you." Rowdy burst Rosalyn's fantasy mercilessly. "It's just that Joanne delivered yesterday. He was afraid that you would do something bad to Joanne or the children, so he sent people to watch you."
Rosalyn's beautiful face suddenly turned grim. "Don't say anything more."
Rowdy laughed. "My people will arrive in about half an hour. You can go out through the basement to avoid being discovered by Brian's people."
Rosalyn hung up the phone and took a set of new clothes into the bathroom.
The bathroom was very big and a minor part of the wall-sized mirror was placed on the washstand. Rosalyn saw herself as soon as she came in. She couldn't help touching her own cheek.
This face had once been praised by a well-known magazine as one of the top hundred of the most beautiful ones in the East. Her face had once been a thing of peerless beauty and countless people were obsessed with it.
Her face used to be bright and beautiful, shining with brightness.
But after a year of living by the iron window, her skin had lost its luster due to the lack of maintenance, and her eyes had lost the glamour. In addition to that, her skin showed a kind of lifeless gloom since she hadn't basked in the sun for a whole year.
If it weren't for the fact that her facial features hadn't changed, she wouldn't have believed that she was still Rosalyn.
In a panic, Rosalyn took out the cosmetics that had not expired and made up the face bit by bit.
But she found out that no matter what she did, she could not bring her face back to the way it used to be.
"That's good. Every time I look at myself in the mirror, it'll always be a bloody reminder."
Half an hour later, Rosalyn went downstairs wearing sunglasses, got in a black business car, and went out to see Rowdy.
In the hospital.
Brian had not slept well last night but he woke up earlier than usual.
When he opened his eyes, Joanne was right beside him, sleeping soundly.
He uncovered the quilt, got up quietly, and walked to the babies' cradle.
Little Romy was still sleeping. She was clenching her fists and putting them to her lips, breathing shallowly. She looked so obedient and lovable.
No one knew when Li'l Aiden had woken up. He yawned in the cradle as Brian reached out and tapped on his face.
He looked at Brian for a while and seemed to recognize who he was. He waved his little hand and Brian responded to his movement to pick him up. The little guy grinned and his smile was like a lamp that lit up Brian's whole world in an instant.
Brian carried the little guy to the bed and put him beside Joanne. The little guy suddenly cried, "Uh-huh", as if he was protesting and looked at Brian eagerly.
Brian's heart softened and he kissed the little guy's face. "Good boy, don't cry. It will disturb your mom. I'll get you some water."
It seemed that Aiden understood Brian's words. He blinked his eyes and returned to his usual cool look. He just looked at Brian and did not make a single sound.
Brian took a bottle that had been sterilized and filled it with warm water. Then, he went back to the bedside and fed it to Aiden.
The little fellow must have been thirsty. He took a few deep sips before loosening on the bottle.
Brian did not know if he didn't want to drink anymore or if he was temporarily tired. He used his pacifier to tease him, and Joanne woke up at the moment.
After having been married for so long, Joanne was used to seeing Brian when she woke up. But when she saw Brian playing with their newborn baby, she couldn't help feeling surprised.
His handsome eyebrows were soft in the morning light. He supported Aiden's head with one hand and held a bottle with the other hand. Every once in a while, the pacifier passed by Aiden's mouth. The little fellow opened his mouth subconsciously, but Brian would move his hand away. In the end, the little fellow wouldn't get anything.
The baby also had a temper. After being teased by Brian many times, he was completely unwilling to go on. He tilted his head and ignored the pacifier Brian brought near his mouth.
Brian frowned and when he was thinking about how to coax the little guy, Joanne's voice suddenly sounded out.
"He probably doesn't want to drink anymore. If you continue to tease him, he'll cry."
"You're awake?"
Putting down the bottle, Brian bypassed the end of the bed and walked to Joanne's side.
After a nap, Joanne's face looked much better than yesterday and her cheeks had more or less regained some color.
Looking at her face bathed in the morning light, Brian's heart moved and he lowered his head to kiss her lips.
Right at this moment...
"Waaa-" Li'l Aiden's cry broke the silence of the morning...
