But now... It all seemed pointless.

Late affection was worth less than the dirt under one's shoes.

Roseanne's face remained expressionless as she listened to him, her hand firmly on the doorknob, a defensive stance.

"I'm sorry, but no," she said, pausing between each word. There would be no forgiveness, no reconciliation. Murray's temper flared visibly. "Why? Just tellwhy! You refused to get back together because of Millie, and now that I've left her, why are you still unwilling?!" He had given up so much, how much more did she want? In contrast to his rage, Roseanne was much calmer: "Once upon a time, you were my everything. To me, you were all that mattered." For him, she had given up her dreams of graduate school.

At the height of their love, he was her entire world, the one she wanted to spend her life with! Murray's eyes brightened instantly, his voice urgent, almost frenetic. "Can't it be the snow? If you're willing, we can go back to how things were." Roseanne looked down, shaking her head. "No one stays in the splace forever. Neither you nor I." "After we separated, I realized that the world is full of interesting things, many worth pursuing." A shadow crossed Murray's face. "Worth pursuing? Graduate school? Studies? But even if you finish your master's, you'll still end up working. Isn't working all about earning money? Tellhow much you want, I can provide." Roseanne frowned. "It's not about the money." Murray scoffed. "Didn't you take that check for fifty million? And now you're saying you don't want money? Do you think I'll believe that? Or was it all about the money from the beginning?!" His anger reached a boiling point, and his words becincreasingly reckless.

Seeing him stray further into absurdity, Roseanne no longer engaged, pushing the door to close it.

Her movement was quick and urgent, catching Murray off guard and forcing him to step back.

"Do you think graduate studies are easy? The academic courses, the lab work, you were indeed capable and outstanding back then. But years have passed, do you think you're still the sRoseanne?!" Before he could finish, the door slammed shut with a "thud," the echo reverberating down the hallway.

The force of the closure startled Murray, anger mixed with a silent vow to make her regret it.

Early April, as spring began to warm the air.

Buds sprouted on branches, and the wind lost its bite.

Roseanne went to visit Mrs. Payne.

This was her first meeting with the elderly lady since the new year.

With the onset of spring, the weather warmed day by day, and Madeleine's health was slowly recovering.

She returned to the forefront of her research, so busy she hardly had tto eat at home.

Upon seeing Roseanne, she handed over a primack of documents, all primary data from her lab andelWontent related academic papers.

Roseanne skimmed through them.

Sof the papers were old and, because of their specialized topics, difficult to find in full online. Gathering them must have taken a lot of effort!

Roseanne pursed her lips, knowing exactly what Madeleine was thinking.

"All these documents were scrounged up from your seniors, m thanks just the asker all thanks to them! My old bones couldn't have gathered all this valuable information." RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
