JEREMY LIGHTWOOD★"The people's actions of invading my wife's property and attempting to ruin our reputation will not be tolerated. Anyone caught will be arrested and taken to court," I declared before passing the microphone to someone else. As I left, reporters called out my name and snapped pictures.I received a call from my father, urgently requesting my presence at his house. I commanded Mike to call the driver and park the car at the entrance, checking the time as it was already getting dark. "Why are you so concerned about people invading Rosa's office?" Dad yelled as I entered."If I don't address it, they won't believe we are married. I had to take action to protect the company's reputation, as being married to her means she's now a business I must care of" I explained."I don't want you forget the real reason you are married" He stated.Jason is back, am sure he didn't expect me to be married that's why I would never lose the company to him.★★★After dropping my suit on th
ROSALIND LIGHTWOOD★I never thought I could say such a word , but as Jeremy held my hands tightly, I gazed at our interlocked fingers. Reluctantly, I pulled away and coughed to break the tension. "Feeling shy all of a sudden?" Jeremy teased, not even looking at me as we waited in line for the ride tickets."I apologize for my words earlier; I simply didn't want him to perceive me as a woman still pining over him," I explained, letting out a sigh.Encountering Mark today displeases me.I regret investing over a year of my time in a relationship with him that ultimately proved to be a waste."I am your husband, so you don't have to be sorry"He proclaimed. Yeah,my husband for a year like he promised,then part ways. I observed his anxious expression as he gazed at the roller coaster."Are you actually afraid of the ride?" I inquired teasingly."Why would I be...this is nothing," he stuttered. We settled into the cart and anticipated the start of the ride."We can stop if you want to," I
ROSALIND LIGHTWOOD★As the days went by, Jeremy and I grew more distant, barely exchanging a word. I was someone who is typically unfazed by others' opinions of me, but Jeremy's aloofness towards me left a lingering sense of melancholy."Boss, are you listening?" Lauren's question jolted me back to reality as I stared at the box containing Jason's suit. "Are you okay? You weren't listening to me," she inquired, concern evident in her voice. Returning the suit to him could potentially lead to further miscommunication between us."You've been fixated on Mr. Jason's suit..." She gasped, turning towards me."...what did he do to you?" She exclaimed."Do you want to risk getting fired?" I asked, causing her to quickly regain her composure."Tell the workers to remove the outdated dresses and fix the ones I inspected this morning," I instructed before returning to my tasks. I let out a sigh as I heard her voice once more."I heard Mr. Jason is now one of the managing directors at Lightwoo
ROSALIND LIGHTWOOD★I groaned loudly as the incessant caller refused to stop calling. Isn't it too early to be calling someone at this hour of the morning?I struggled to open my eyes against the blinding sun, reaching out to grab the phone and answer the call without checking the caller ID."This is way too early to be calling, whoever you are. I'm busy," I mumbled groggily."Have you been drinking? What happened to you?" I heard my mum's voice, prompting me to stand up immediately and check the caller ID."Mum? I'm so sorry, I didn't check who was calling," I apologized."Do you even know what time it is? You were crying over the phone when you called your dad and me. Is everything okay? You scared us last night," Mum yelled.As I checked the time and realized it was already past one, memories of the previous day at the company flooded back, causing me to let out a heavy sigh."Is everything alright, Rosa?" I heard my dad's concerned voice."Of course, dad. You know how I get when I
ROSALIND LIGHTWOOD★The past few days have been incredibly busy and stressful, with back-to-back meetings and a packed schedule causing me to often come home late but Jeremy always waits for me in the living room, ensuring I arrive safely after work.As I parked my car to grab a coffee before going to work, a sudden crash behind me jolted me out of my routine, prompting me to quickly exit the vehicle and check the source of the noise."Damn it! What have I done this early morning?" I exclaimed as I realized I had collided with the front of another person's car. The driver, a lady, swiftly exited her vehicle to inspect the damage."I humbly apologize for the damage I've caused. How can I compensate for this?" I inquired as a woman in her sixties emerged from the car, likely the owner, while the other lady appeared to be her driver."It's okay, you don't need to pay for anything," she replied calmly before turning to her driver. "Get in the car and let's go." With that, they returned to
ROSALIND LIGHTWOOD★I am still puzzled as to why Jeremy give me hickey on my neck, leaving yet another mark. Standing in front of the mirror, I winced as I touched the spot. His actions that night prevented me from fully enjoying the party and socializing with others."I regret running my mouth that night, he's incredibly jealous," I lamented, wincing in discomfort.I cursed under my breath and sighed as I stepped out of the bathtub, frustrated by the persistent hickey on my neck that had forced me to wear high-necked dresses for the past two days. I cringed at the memory of Gran catching us that night, feeling utterly embarrassed. Despite my attempts to stop him and informing him about Grandma, he only relented when I finally managed to push him away and escape into the room.Today being Saturday, I planned to go out and have a little fun alone since Carrie was away and also visit my mom and dad. I eagerly dressed and made my way downstairs for breakfast."Good morning, Grandma! I'm
JEREMY LIGHTWOOD★"That's will be all for today's meeting". I ended the meeting with the executive directors and headed back to my office. "Any details on him?"I asked Mike, referring to Jason.Since the time Jason became one of the managing directors of this company, Mike, my assistant has always kept eyes on him on my command."No, Mr Lightwood " He answered."I guess he knows I'm keeping an eyes on him, he must have a plan of being here"I said."What's on my schedule next?" I inquired."You have an international conference call scheduled in 30 minutes, sir," he replied."Miss Clara has already arrived, sir," he informed me, to which I nodded in acknowledgment.Shortly after a gentle knock on the door, Clara entered, where she stood poised in her professional corporate outfit."You asked for my presence, Mr. Lightwood," she stated."Drop the act. I've called you here to clarify some matters," I declared, and she nodded in understanding."I knew you couldn't just summon me, especial
ROSALIND LIGHTWOOD★Arriving home early in the evening after a successful meeting with the models for the upcoming fashion shows I'll be having, I packed my car and headed straight to my room. Noticing the car Jeremy drove to work was still absent, it dawned on me that he hadn't returned from work yet, while Gran had been diligently visiting orphanages to provide for those in need.As I made my way to my room, the sound of Gran's door opening caught my attention."Welcome back, Gran! I didn't realize you were already home," I greeted her."Yes, I am. How was your day at the fashion house?" she asked."Busy and exhausting, as usual," I replied with a tired yawn."Let me whip up something for you, you look exhausted," Gran offered, but I declined with a shake of my head."I'll manage, Gran, I'm fine for tonight," I reassured her with a smile."However, I can help you with Jeremy's meal since I assume you'll be tired too. Let me freshen up first," I suggested, preparing to leave."Did y
