Chapter 487
The next morning.
As the Roberts family’s son-in-law and his first night at the Roberts family villa, Edward, who knew his
manners, woke up early. Rose had to get out of bed as well though she usually liked to sleep in.
The two couples sat in the dining room of the Roberts family at the same time and slowly started their
breakfast.
Edward looked out by glancing and could not help but sigh in his heart. He could finally sit inside the
house and eat breakfast without being sneaky about it.
At the dining table, Grace was very polite. She conveniently placed some breakfast that she thought
was delicious in front of Edward’s. “Take whatever you like.”
Rose was smart. She was afraid that William would be jealous, so she poured William coffee and
grabbed him a hotdog. She kept saying, “William, eat more.”
William nodded in satisfaction. “Okay.” Then, he acted like an elder and said to Edward, “Enjoy. It
should taste better than the ones that Rose took out for you.”
At least it was warm on the dining table.
Edward nodded with gratitude and automatically ignored the last sentence that William said. Grace
glared at William, who immediately shrugged his shoulders and shut up.
The only thing missing from the dining table was Frank.
After breakfast, the four of them parted ways at the Roberts family’s door. Edward politely said to Grace
before they got into the car, “Dad, Mom, I’ll bring Rose home tonight.”
He wanted to say that he probably wasn’t going back to stay with the Roberts family. When he met
William’s gaze, he swallowed his words.
Grace understood and replied calmly, “Sure. Be careful on your way.” She pulled William into the car
though he still wanted to say something.
After getting into the car, Edward started the car and said to Rose, “Do you want to give your
colleagues wedding candy? If you want, I’ll buy some at noon and send it to the hospital for you.”
She had already told her boss that she was married and even asked him to approve her request for
vacation due to marriage. If she ran into him, it would be awkward if the boss asked her for wedding
candy and she didn’t have any for him. After thinking about it, she believed she needed to bring some
for a ceremonial feeling. A married woman’s status was not bad and could block any unwanted
attention. She rolled her eyes and said, “Alright, then buy some. Thank you so much. Love you.”
Edward was very happy to do it for her. “Okay, okay. I’ll buy it and send it to the hospital for you. Do you
want me to show up?”
Rose said awkwardly, “Hubby, can you please not show up at my work for a while longer?” She really
wanted to keep a low profile. As she spoke, she pouted and looked like a drama queen.
Edward nodded helplessly. Since Miss Roberts requested him to be invisible, he would be invisible.
Even if he did not appear, he would still be Rose’s husband. This identity would not change.
“Okay, then I’ll send the things to the hospital at noon. Are you coming to get them or is Tom coming to
get them?”
Rose stretched and pushed her legs forward. “I’ll let Tom come get it. Thank you so much.”
The car arrived at the hospital very quickly. Rose put on a big smile and walked into the outpatient
building. The nurses at the side and the people at the reception desk greeted her.
“Good morning, Dr. Roberts. Dr. Roberts, come here.”
It was still early. Rose walked to the reception desk and leaned against it. “What’s wrong? Any big
news?”
the nurse thought, “Aren’t you the big news?”
A few people leaned close to Rose and whispered, “I heard that you took so many days off to get
married. Is that true?”
It was indeed so. Fortunately, her husband was thoughtful. Otherwise, she would have forgotten about
the wedding candy. While smiling and leaning against the reception desk, Rose tapped her finger on
the counter and admitted publicly, “That’s right. Didn’t I apply for marriage leave a few days ago?”
After receiving an affirmative answer, the nurse asked in confusion, mainly because it was too sudden.
“Dr. Roberts, didn’t you go on a trip a few days ago?”
How did she get married?
Rose smiled. She did not intend to tell everyone what had happened. She simply wanted everyone to
know about her happy feelings. She said in a relaxed tone, “I picked up a husband while traveling, isn’t
that funny?”
Seeing the blissful smile on Rose’s face, the nurse did not want to find out whether what she said was
true. She only partly believed it. After all, Rose’s marriage was real. So the nurse sincerely
congratulated her. “Congratulations, Dr. Roberts.”
“Thank you. I’ll give you some wedding candy during lunch. I’m leaving for work. Bye.”
When they were usually free, the receptionists would often chat with Rose and the other two. Looking
at Rose’s back, they truly sent her their blessings. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
At the same time, there was also an element of envy, because, in everyone’s impression, Rose was
always carefree and relaxed.
At noon, Edward handed two boxes of candy boxes to Tom. When Tom took them, he was still
dumbfounded. Not many people knew that Rose and Edward had registered their marriage. “Mr.
Landor, is this for Miss Roberts?”
Edward placed the box in the trunk of Tom’s car. He clapped his hands and instructed, “Yes, send these
things to Rose.”
Tom was still puzzled. This was wedding candy. Wasn’t Miss Roberts and Mr. Landor not married yet?
Seeing Tom’s puzzled and confused expression, Edward explained to him, “I’ve already registered my
marriage with Miss Roberts. You can keep your share of this. Thank you for everything.”
With that, Edward left Tom, who didn’t know how to react. He got into the car, started the engine, and
drove away. He did not have much time to waste. He still had to decorate the new house with Rose
tonight. Now, it was time to buy the materials Rose wanted.
Tom stood alone in the parking lot for a while before coming back to his senses. He looked at the two
boxes of candy in the trunk and finally realized what was going on. He quickly took a box of wedding
candy and placed it in the front passenger seat. He was overjoyed. He was the first person to have
Miss Roberts’ wedding candy and the first person to hear the news.
He eagerly sent all the sweets that Edward gave him to Rose’s consultation room. Rose gave a few
boxes to the people she was familiar with in different departments. Some of them came to ask for them
themselves.
When she went to work in the afternoon, she met some children who often came to visit. Róse also
gave them wedding candy. The children’s innocent smiles and gratitude made Rose feel even happier.
She quickly finished handing out the wedding candy that Edward had bought. Of course, Rose did not
plan to buy more of it. She just wanted to have a sense of doing this thing. She did not plan to offer it to
everyone in the hospital.
Although she had the ability to do so, she did not want to.
After work, Edward came to pick her up on time. Ever since Edward started dating Rose, Tom had
basically lost his role and would occasionally show up.
The car drove towards the Landor family. On the way, Rose, who was sitting in the car, suddenly
thought, “Wait, we need to do something else. I think I forgot to buy a gift for going to your house for
the first time.”
Edward said, “There’s no need. Mom said that you don’t have to buy anything. Your presence is the
best gift.”
It was supposed to be a touching sentence, but Rose laughed out loud after hearing it. She reached
out and grabbed Edward’s cheek. She understood this sentence from a completely different
perspective. She looked sympathetic. “Hubby,. how difficult was it for you to get married? Mom has
lowered her condition to an extremely low point.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Edward smiled. Indeed, his mother’s actions showed that no one
wanted him. “So, thank you for taking me in.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll treat you well,” Rose laughed wantonly and happily.
The door of the villa of the Landor family was not closed. It was open as if Edward and Rose did not
know how to open the door.
Edward held Rose’s hand and entered the door. As soon as she stepped in, she was knocked back by
a sudden force. Edward held Rose’s waist with his big palm to steady herself.
He scolded his impolite sister. “What are you doing? Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be
taking a rest at home for giving birth?
Sherri grinned and slapped his brother’s hand away. She dragged Rose inside the house. “Today is the
first day of Rose’s stay in the Landor family as my sister-in-law. As the Landor family’s… beloved
daughter, how can I not come home for it? I’ve decided to stay at home for the rest of my break. Sister-
in-law, do you have any objections?”
How could Rose reject this? She definitely agreed. She had just arrived and this was her first time
staying with the Landor family. With Sherri around, she would definitely be much happier. She was
obviously fine with it.
Hackett sat on the sofa and was eating peanuts. Beside him, Ruby was working hard to peel peanuts
for him. After peeling it, she placed it on a plate for Hackett to eat. Hackett treasured it so much that he
fed them to his daughter eventually.
“Rose,” Ruby called out sweetly the moment she saw Rose.
Rose was so happy to hear that. She held Sherri’s wrist and walked over. “Come, let me give you a
hug.”
Ruby obediently sat on Rose’s lap. Hackett said, “If you like kids, you make one yourself.”
As Hackett spoke, he shook the small cradle occasionally. In the cradle, Jasper was sleeping soundly.
Rose’s eyes looked at the little handsome guy who was lying in the cradle. He looked very chubby and
cute.
As they were talking, Juana came downstairs. In order to welcome her daughter-in-law, she specifically
went upstairs to change her clothes. Sherri couldn’t stop her even though she tried to.
When Rose saw Juana, she hurriedly called out, “Mom.”
The corners of Juana’s mouth curled up to the sky as she replied loudly, “Yes. Sherri, stop minding
yourself and take care of your sister-in-law.”
“Mother, Rose is going to be a part of our family from now on. Rose, take whatever you like. Otherwise,
my mother will definitely think that I won’t let
you eat.”
“This child, you don’t even know what you’re talking about. You’re always talking nonsense.” It was rare
for Juana to reprimand Sherri in the gentlest tone. Sherri was not used to it and shuddered.
Was her mother possessed by something? She thought she was too used to her mother’s cold tone
that she could take this right now.
She secretly leaned close to Rose’s ear and said, “Rose, I think you’re the only one in the family who
can deal with my mother. Let me tell you, before you came, my mother wasn’t wearing this dress. She
was afraid that you would say that she didn’t look good, so she went to change into another one.”
“I see…”
Looking at Rose’s surprised expression, Sherri grabbed an apple and started munching on it. She
shook her legs and said, “It’s true. This is the first time I’ve seen my mother being so weak. When she
argued with me, she was always so mighty, like a level 10 typhoon.”
Hackett turned a deaf ear to his wife complaining about his mother-in-law. He could not participate in
such a discussion. He ate with his daughter and invited Edward to join them. “Sit down. You are not
going to lose your wife. You don’t have to start at her like this.”
Edward glanced at Hackett, who was sitting calmly. This guy’s social status in this family seemed to
have increased recently. “Rose, I’ll go upstairs.”
The underlying meaning of his words was to ask whether Rose wanted to go up or not. However, Sherri
was so engrossed in chatting that she did not notice the look her brother gave Rose. She was still
talking about her own matters. Rose could only give Edward a look to indicate he should go up by
himself first while looking helpless.
After Edward left, Rose touched Ruby’s braid while saying, “Sherri, have you gained weight?”
She looked at the waist, the face, and the bottom of Sherri. In the beginning, she didn’t notice it
because Sherri was wearing a dress, but now that she was sitting together with her, she definitely felt it.
“Sigh. I absorbed everything I ate. I really want to cry now that we are talking about this. I got on the
scale yesterday I have gained 12 pounds. I really cannot control my weight gain.”
Rose reached out and pinched Sherri’s waist. Then, she pinched her own waist. “You seem to have to
control your appetite. Otherwise, this will get out of control. When you go to work, you won’t even be
able to enter the operating room with a facial scan.
At the moment, Sherri could still pass the facial scan. However, if things continued this way, it might be
difficult for her to do so.
Sherri said, “Actually, I don’t want to eat so much either. My mother-in-law has been too good to me.
She makes different kinds of soup for me every day. Although the soups were also meant to increase
the production of my milk, I couldn’t bear to waste them after my mother-in-law stewed them for so
long. It’s mainly because they’re too delicious.”
Hackett said, “It’s okay, honey. No matter how fat you are, you’re still my wife. Love you.”
Rose suddenly felt goosebumps all over her body after seeing Hackett’s confession of love.
