Chapter 507
“What’s the matter?” Rosalie asked, puzzled. “You don’t have a good relationship with your family?”
Upon seeing Yerick’s silence, she understood the situation. “I’m sorry, I had no idea. If your relationship with your family isn’t good, I won’t contact them.”
Everyone’s family situation was different, and not all family was worth keeping in contact. She didn’t want to pretend to be a saint and force Yerick to contact his family. Oftentimes, poor familial relations weren’t due to the children themselves.
Yerick smiled helplessly. “Rose, I… I don’t have family.”
“What did you say?” Rosalie was shocked. “You don’t have a family?”
Yerick nodded.
“Yes. My parents haven’t been around since I was very young. I lived with my aunt and uncle, but they find me a burden,” he said with a bitter smile. “Whatever it is, I grew up and ended up living on my own.”
“I see.” It must have been tough on Yerick, given such circumstances. She always thought that his family must have been proud of him for being a bright and talented child.
“I’m sorry I never told you about it,” Yerick said.
“It’s alright,” Rosalie said gently. “It’s understandable you didn’t tell me. In that case, just stay in the hospital with peace of mind. I’ll find someone to take care of you.”
“No need, I can take care of myself. I don’t have money for a nurse.”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll cover the costs. Just focus on recovering.”
Rosalie’s generosity shocked Yerick. “Please, no. How could I make you pay? It’ll definitely cost an arm and a leg.”
“Yerry, it’s fine. It’s nothing to me, as
et

“How much did you spend? I’ll pay for it back. I don’t want to take advantage of you.”
Rosalie guessed that Yerick was probably tight on money and didn’t have enough, so she said as gently as she could, “I haven’t calculated it yet. I’ll tell you once I have. There’s no rush. I trust you, and I know you’re a talent who’ll definitely earn loads in the future. I’ll just see this as an investment. Just don’t forget to thank me when you become successful!” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Rosalie deliberately said so in hopes of making Yerick feel better.
Yerick could tell what she was trying to do. “I know you’re saying this to make me feel better. Whatever it is, thank you. I’ll work very hard, and pay you back eventually.”
“No rush,” Rosalie said, pulling the sheets up Yerick. “We’ll talk about it again after you start earning money. All you need to do now is to focus on your recovery. Leave everything else to me. Listen to me if you see me as a sister, okay?” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Yerick nodded obediently. “Okay.”
He bit his lip, looking slightly upset as he turned his face away.
“What’s the matter?” Rosalie asked, concerned. “Do you feel unwell? I’ll call for the doctor.”
Yerick shook his head. “No, I just…”
“Just what?” Rosalie asked.
“Will you look down on me for not having a family? Will you think of me as a wild child lacking proper upbringing, and not want me as a friend?”
