Blinking pitifully, Rose mumbled, "Hubby, my throat hurts. Ahem..." Her lips hurt too!Almost at the same time, Kevin's emotions subsided, and he touched her forehead. "Are you burning up again? I'll get you some honey water!"Getting up, he went to take some pills before making honey water.Looking at him hustling around, Rose's heart warmed up. He had actually cared about her, although it may be 'lesser' than she desired!She did not know if she went soft because of the sickness, but she no longer felt angry at all!Kevin fed her the medicine before taking her temperature, his arms around her. "That's more like it! Your fever is better now. Get some more sleep and get well quickly!"He preferred her to be full of vigor and not sickly."Okay!"Nodding, she blinked and took his arm. "Hubby, you won't leave me, right? What would I do if I missed dinner because of sleep and there's nothing to eat?"Kevin saw that she was even acting coquettishly at the moment. He was mesmerized by her a
Rose widened her eyes, feeling as if she had fallen for his trap again. Before she could react, her thoughts had melted into a mess, leaving her muddled in a daze.Absence made the heart grow fonder. The long period of separation from each other’s embrace and the continuous teasing from Rose all day made Kevin a little out of control. He was like a wild horse free from its reins as he held her through the night. Nevertheless, he made sure to avoid her wounds and touched her as gently and with as much care as he could.It was a burning, passionate night, waves of pleasure hitting the duo...****The next day, the morning sun shed its beautiful rays. Kevin opened his eyes; his contentment was apparent. His calloused fingers traced the ravishing body in his arms. Leaning down, he pressed soft pecks against her skin.Who knew that it would be so satisfying to wake up in the morning?The frustration and ill feelings from the past few days were all gone. It was as though he had found the cr
Looking at each other, both of them were stupefied!Since James sent Rose back previously, he actually came over a few times, sometimes at night and sometimes in the morning. Every time, he saw her going in and out of the house alone. He had never seen a man before.He also sent someone to investigate the owner of the house but to no avail.Later, he accidentally came across a picture of their classmates and he remembered that she was good friends with Eliana Rayas. As the Rayas family was a prestigious family, he thought that perhaps the house belonged to Eliana, and she allowed Rose to stay here temporarily.On the other hand, Kevin had many scandals in the headlines recently. Although James did not know the women who were with Kevin, one look was all it took to know that Rose was not one of them. This day, he unexpectedly spotted the ointment he had bought beforehand; therefore he purposely came over!It was Sunday and he felt that there was a higher probability that she would be
A faint sadness flashed across Rose's eyes as she thought of the past. However, upon lifting her head, her eyes were shining with a smile blooming on her face."Hubby, you should eat some eggs. It's good for your body! An egg a day keeps the doctor away!"A simple breakfast ended amidst their laughter. As usual, Rose kept away all the dishes away and had them washed. For her, it was only a simple matter as she had been doing chores for years. Hence, even if there were more dishes for her to wash, she would not feel treated unfairly at all.On the other hand, Kevin’s heart ached as he looked at Rose. She was too thoughtful and considerate for her good, always handling everything on her own, without anyone knowing. God knew how many times she had been bullied and taken advantage of like this."From now on, just let our servant wash the dishes! I'll have Ms Lisa move over in these two days.""It's fine, there's not much to wash anyway. I can get it done in a couple of minutes! Besides, I
Rose was a strong and independent woman who loved and valued herself. She was worthy of anyone's pampering for a lifetime!Feeling sorry for her, Kevin hugged her tightly. No wonder James would come to their home with a scar-removing ointment! Kevin blamed himself for being an irresponsible husband.At this moment, regret overwhelmed him.After pinching her pinkish cheeks gently, he leaned down and gave her an adoring, deep kiss."Silly! You're so silly! Promise me not to go to dangerous places like this again! Didn't you find it suspicious when you were asked to go to a hotel? If anything happens, call me immediately! Always put your safety first, okay?"She even stabbed herself with a knife. Was she not afraid of losing her life? Upon thinking that she was so desperate to protect her body while willing to give herself to him, she must have loved him. She would not let anyone touch her but him. Kevin was inexplicably moved. However, her safety and her life were the most important to
Looking at Kevin, Rose thought that he might have something urgent to do. She stopped eating and asked, “Who was that? If you are busy, I can finish all these by myself. But, before you go, have some of this!”She pushed all the potato wedges to his front.Kevin returned to his senses. He gave a small smile and replied, “It’s okay, I am not going anywhere. I am staying with you today! Hurry up and eat! It won’t taste good if the dishes cool off completely.”He was indeed getting hungry. He shoved a potato wedge into his mouth before replying to Scarlett’s messages.[Where are you? What exactly are you busy doing these days?][Why don’t you answer my call?][Are you with another woman? I saw you…][Are you avoiding me?]****Looking at all the messages flashing on his phone, he was utterly annoyed. He thought of ignoring Scarlett to give her some time to prepare before he talked things out with her. Of course, it would be better if she got the hint and figured things out on her own.He
"Although it's a limited edition, the price of the shoes is fairly acceptable. It was only 39999 dollars. Not to mention how suitable it looks on a fashionable and beautiful lady like you..." the salesperson continued. Glancing at the shoes on her feet, Kevin did not warm up to them. He still thought that they looked utterly ugly. "Do these look good? I think you should not try the others. These just look like shoes for children though." The shoes were weird enough with furs attached to them. The style became worse with their 'unique' design, different on each side. Upon hearing that, the salesperson was amused. "Sir, you must be joking! This asymmetrical style is the newest trend this year! There's always a little girl living in every woman's heart after all. That's the reason why these cute styles are getting popular over recent years. Look at that lady over there! The shoes she's wearing have a similar style to our product. This design is a must-have for this season. Your beaut
Kevin squinted at Rose. It was clear that something was bothering her as her expression was unnatural. She seemed to be making choices in her mind.Rose started to beg Kevin coquettishly, even pulling and tagging him. She even tried to cover his eyes with her hands."Hubby, I could cover your face if you feel embarrassed to carry me. Nobody will recognize you. Could you carry me to the pharmacy, please? The last time you carried me to the hospital, I was already unconscious. I couldn't remember any of your 'love'. Could you do it again so that I could embed this important moment in my memory?" Rose begged while pulling him gently on the arm.Leaning against him defiantly, Kevin could see her ravishing look. Under the moonlight, her beauty was as picturesque as a painting.Rose was so good at convincing. It was clear that she was talking her way in to get Kevin to carry her and she managed to persuade him. She even made him feel over the moon listening to her words. Kevin raised his ha
Just like that one month had passed. In this one month, Kevin had worked non-stop. The next month he and Rose were getting married. Before their marriage, Kevin had decided to finish all his two months of work, because he had promised Rose that he would take her on vacation.In the Star International CEO’s office…Kevin sat behind on his chair and was busy looking at the documents in his hand and when Daniel knocked on the door and came inside…Daniel walked to the coffee machine made two cups of coffee and gave one to Kevin. Then he sat on the opposite chair.Kevin finished reading the file in his hand, signed his name, and put it down. He picked up the cup of coffee and asked…“How are the things I asked you to do?” Kevin took a sip of the coffee and asked.“I have dealt with everything as you said. The Follen Group all shares fell after the news of Mr. Follen being involved in money laundering and Tax evasion came to the light. After the investigation, Mr. Follen was sent to jail a
Just like that, with the help of that man, she shot that video.After hearing everything, Rose's eyes widened in shock. Because in the video lights were dim she wasn’t able to see clearly. What’s more men’s eyes were closed and because of the panic in her heart, she didn’t think too much and came here…“Since I have told you everything, I hope you can rest in peace after your death,” Lucy said as she stood up from her chair and was about to go out.However, she stopped and looked back at her. “Oops, I forget to tell you something very important. You are not going to die hare alone, so don’t be sad. Because your husband will also be going to accompany you.”“What do you mean?” She asked.“It’s like, in another ten minutes Kevin will be here to save you. However, as long as he opened the door, the bomb under your chair will be activated and BOOM!”“Okay, now I am get going, because your husband will be here soon.” After Lucy finished speaking, she picked up her bag and left.Before leav
The man in the photo was the person who had drugged Rose's father. Kevin had been looking for this man for a long time, however before he could catch him he had already left the C city.That’s why it takes so much time for him to find him. However, after finding out about the person behind all this, he was very disappointed. He had some idea, but after finding out that the person was Scarlett, he felt a little sad in his heart.After all, they have so many good memories together and even if they are no longer with each other, he still hopes that both of them can live their lives happily.“Scarlett, I had given you so many chances in the past, because I always respected our friendship… However, this time you had hurt the person who was very important to me… I will never forgive you…” Kevin said calmly.Kevin knows that for Rose her parents are very important in her life. All these years she had worked so hard to save her father. This time if something happened to her father, he can’t e
Kevin looked at Rose who was eating happily and asked, “I can understand everything, but I can’t understand one thing.”“What is it?” Rose asked.“How did I still able to win the bid?” He asked.“Oh, that… Because, I gave them a USB drive with filled with virus. As long as they opened it, all the data inside was destroyed.”Rose said. However, she was only able to do all this, with the help of Stella. Rose was very grateful to her. If she didn’t help her, she didn’t know whom to ask. It was also the reason, Rose sent her parents abroad, because she was afraid that once, that person found out that she had given him a USB filled with a virus, he would attack her parents again.Kevin nodded. After the both of them, finished eating, Rose washed the dishes and looked at Kevin who was still sitting on the sofa. “Why are you not leaving?” She asked.“I am not going anywhere. Because there is also another reason why I came here today.” Kevin said.“What other reason?” Rose asked, as she walke
After he finished speaking, he went inside. Kevin put the things in his hand on the table and looked at Rose, who was also walking over after closing the door.Kevin went forward and hugged her tightly. He buried his head in her shoulder and said, “I miss you so much.”Rose smiled and patted on his back. “Let me go, I am very hungry. Let’s eat something first.” She said.The person she asked to deliver food was none other than, but Kevin. Kevin nodded and let her go. After that, both of them, sat down to eat. Looking at her favorite food, Rose smiled and started to eat happily.As she was eating, she thought something and asked, “How are the things going on? Do you find the person behind all this?”Kevin looked up at her and said, “"Yes that man is Sebastain Davis, who installed that motoring device in your phone.""Sebastain Davis?" Hearing this name, Rose finally understands everything... "So it was him who did this. No wonder I didn't find out anything.""Don't worry, it will not l
Looking at the group of people who were condemning and glaring at her, Rose suddenly understood.It turned out that this was the real purpose of this trap! To let Kevin and even the whole Davis family witness her betrayal of him with their own eyes. It was to turn her family against her and completely break the relationship between the two!As her eyes fell on Scarlett and the middle-aged man, Rose concluded. "What a coincidence! This matter must have something to do with her!" Rose thought to herself.When she was still sorting out her thoughts, Lucy had already rushed over in anger. She looked at the computer for a few seconds, then she shouted."I saw you entering the hotel with a man sneakily. I thought that you were having an affair. It turned out that you had stolen something. Has the Davis family done you any wrong? You actually stole Star International's trade secrets in exchange for fifty million dollars? What is this? The bidding proposal for the west city!"She kept yelling
By the time Kevin came back, it was almost midnight, but Rose was still on the sofa. As soon as she saw him, she got up and ran up to him."Hubby, is dad alright? Is there anything wrong?"Rose took his coat and hung it up. She also took a set of clothes for him to change into and said, "You must be tired! Are you hungry? Let me make you supper. Go and take a shower first!"Seeing that he had returned, everything should be fine now. Just when Rose was about to move, Kevin held her waist."It's fine, I'm not hungry! Dad's fine now. We don't know what he ate that suddenly shot up his blood pressure, but he's stable now. It's already so late, why haven't you slept? Is there anything urgent that I need to know?""No! It's good that he's fine! I just wanted to wait for you to come back. I wouldn't feel at ease if I didn't know what's going on! As for my matter, let's talk about it next time. Quick, go take a shower and rest!"Pushing him into the bathroom, Rose quickly tidied up the bed an
"Then don't let him enter the third round!"He threw the list aside and said in a low voice, "Let's see how he can stir up trouble if he can't enter! By the way, do you think... there is anything wrong with the bidding in Western City this time?"“Okay.” Daniel said and was about to leave… However, he stopped and said…"Don't forget that you've made an appointment with Director Sander for dinner at Sky Water Hotel this evening!" Daniel reminded him when he saw that he was very disturbed and left!Kevin sat there for a while, moving away.****That evening, Rose went to Sky Water Hotel as instructed. In the room, she saw the so-called bidding document, it was a USB drive. The staff said that the room was booked online, but the customer was anonymous, so Rose didn't ask for more details. Although this person prepared everything so meticulously and carefully, even if she found out who put it there, the person must be someone insignificant!At that moment, Rose was not in a hurry to find
Rose accompanied her dad the whole way, and only turned her attention to Grayson when she went back to the office. Grayson gave her a cup of water."Don't worry, the results need some time to be released! Now, tell me, what is going on?" He asked."I'm not hiding anything. It is exactly as what I have told you! I don't know what is going on either..."Rose felt helpless, and her anxiety was obvious. Except for the part where she needed the proposal to exchange for the cure, she confessed everything.While they were speaking, a nurse sent in the reports to them.After closing the door, Rose asked anxiously, "How is it? What exactly is the issue?""From the films and the results, so far everything is normal! However, something... unknown is found in his bloodstream!"Because it was listed as a private and confidential matter, this report was not saved. It was specially labelled and the doctors filled in the report according to what he had given."Something unknown?" Rose muttered, her v
