Rosalie opened her mouth to speak but found her voice didn't want to come out, as if it were stuck in her throat while her chest kept on aching.
The young girl hugging her was Jane Linton. They met in school when Rosalie was about to graduate while Jane was her two-year junior. The two quickly hit it off as they met a couple of times because of the cliques they shared at school.
Although Rosalie was two years older than her, Jane wanted the former to treat her like they were of the same age.
The two of them had a great relationship, and two other girls later joined their small circle. Max, a classmate of Jane's, was the first to join, followed by Taylor.
Everything was going so well between the four of them.
However, things changed soon after Rosalie's identity was revealed.
Rosalie, blinded by familial love and pursuing the Ameratti family, did not see the changes in Jane.
