Chapter 1335
Rosalie hadn't seen Theodore for several days and didn't know where he had gone. The two of them had spoken on the phone,
but he only told her that he was fine and that he needed a few days to handle some things.
Theodore assured her that nothing was wrong and that he would be back soon, telling her not to worry.
Rosalie felt that he probably needed some time to calm down, so she gave him space and decided not to bother him, waiting for
his return to address things.
She was currently staying at his place, taking his earlier suggestion to live together, which would make it easier for them to take
care of Steve.
As for Sebastian, he had already escaped as Yerick said.
Rosalie had asked Christopher about this, but he said he didn't know anything.
Christopher told her that in a few days, it would be Chandra's 70th birthday, and he wanted her to join the celebration.
Rosalie naturally didn't want to go and directly refused. She still hadn't accepted her own identity.
Rosalie placed a basket of fruit on the bedside table. "You look much better today."
When she entered, she found Justin reading a book. It was a novel about the Middle Ages.
"Is this book any good?" Rosalie asked.
Justin said, "I wouldn't say it's good or bad. I see it as a complex story and try to view it from an objective perspective. The
subject is pretty interesting. I saw some people criticizing it, calling it worthless, which made me want to see for myself."
Justin pulled out his phone and showed Rosalie some of the critical comments about the book.
The comments weren't constructive critiques, but rather personal attacks laced with vulgarity, lacking any rationale.
There were many replies under the
comment. Most of them were
something along the lines of, "Seeing your comment, I already know what kind of book this is. It must be terrible," or "Reading
your review, I know what the book is about. It's disgusting. Every character seems to have problems. Thanks for the heads-up."
"Why would you want to read this book when everyone else says it's bad?" Rosalie asked.
person summarized the content in less than a hundred words. Sadly, many people bought the comment.
"They can easily read the book themselves, but these people don't want to. They believe what others say and criticize it without
understanding the full picture. People like this have no independent thinking. They just follow others and are easily led by the
crowd."
Rosalie smiled. "That makes sense.
You have to read it yourself to know. Others' comments can only serve as a reference, not something to fully trust. But feel like
people are
becoming more impatientl days. Some are easily swayed, always focusing on things they don't like and criticizing them.t
inadvertently influences a large crowd."
Justin replied, "Just like what's happening with this novel. If you pull out certain scenes or even a single sentence, they may
seem strange. But with literature, you have to look at it in context and understand the whole narrative to get the true meaning.
"When you take things out of context, they can easily be twisted and over-interpreted. But what can we do? Some people are
misled by fragmented information. They have no patience to dive deeper. They only see the tip of the iceberg and don't want to
think for themselves. Fewer and fewer people want to get to the truth of a matter, watch a movie from start to finish, or read a
novel from beginning to end."
"But you're not like that," Rosalie said seriously, looking at him with a newfound understanding of who he was.
