Rose immediately paled.Just like Amelia, Grayson did not know about the strange relationship between Rose, Kevin, and Scarlett, therefore he happily said, "I'd hope so! I just don't know if I'd be so lucky. Miss Reed and I are just friends."Amelia laughed at his words."Is this a confession? Doctor Grayson, you are blushing! You guys are so talented and good-looking; you are a perfect match!" Afraid that Amelia might take her jokes too far and play matchmaker for random people again, Allen quickly changed the topic. "It's all old news, why are you talking about it again now?"The two of them were in tacit understanding. As soon as he spoke, Amelia focused her attention on him."Why? Are you still guilty? Are you afraid to let people know that you used to like Scarlett so much? Anyone who knew you would know that you pursued her fervently! Don't worry, it's the past, no one cares!"After she turned around, she seemed to have remembered something as she turned to Kevin and Scarlett.
Alex also felt very helpless. Once women started gossiping, no one could hold them back. With only two women, plus Scarlett who occasionally interjected to reminisce the past, it was already noisy enough. In the end, he could only gaze sympathetically at Kevin. After all, such a situation was common in the past. Amelia had done this inadvertently, and if Kevin cleared things up and scolded them, it would be a little too much. That would mean that he was slapping Scarlett in the face.Alex tried to stop the conversation several times but to no avail.Rose's mind was a mess. The sudden impacts came one after another and she had completely forgotten to react.On the other hand, Grayson just frowned, feeling a little strange. This atmosphere was too weird!But apart from a dry laugh, he didn't know what else to say; he couldn't even talk about leaving.It wasn't until Eliana rushed over that everything was halted. "Rose, what are you doing? I've been waiting for you for a long time! Wow,
Eliana realized that Rose was out of it, therefore she held her hands as they exchanged looks. She didn't ask further questions about it."Are you okay? Do you want me to give you a ride?"Rose shook her head. "No! I just want to be... alone!"Similarly, she also rejected Grayson's request afterward. She feared that Eliana wouldn't be safe staying here, thus she dragged Eliana out together."Eliana, let's leave together! Don't stay in this kind of place for long!""Got it! I still have to wait for a friend to get something, I'll leave in a while! I'll be careful, don't worry about me! Rose, did you encounter something? If you need help, just call me. Alone we can do so little but together we can do so much. Don't just keep it to yourself. You would be defeated if you keep everything in!""I know! I'll tell you everything I can!" However, even Rose herself hadn't cleared her doubts yet.The duo spoke for a while. After reminding Eliana of several things, only then did she leave.That n
Not knowing how long she had been standing there when Rose returned to her senses, she felt her mind going blank. Only a few lights shone in front of her.The shops were all closed and her body was so cold as if she had lost consciousness. Turning around, she returned to the car as she rubbed the goosebumps on her arm , and started the car in a daze.The surroundings were quiet and even without looking at the time, Rose knew it was already late.After driving the car for two rounds, she didn't know where she could go. Feeling confused, she didn't dare to go to a hotel recklessly and drove the car back to Star Garden.After getting out of the car, she realized that she had forgotten to take her purse. She turned around and went back for it. "Sure enough, it was the right choice to go home! If I were to stay in a hotel, I would have probably forgotten to lock the door!" she thought to herself.If she was taken advantage of by someone, her life would be ruined completely!As she held her
“Rose…”Reaching out to hug her, Kevin’s eyes were filled with distress. To be honest, he had been caught completely off guard by what had happened that night. Until this instant, his mind was still half-confused!“Don’t touch me! Don’t touch me! Get out! Get out!”“Don’t do this, listen to me okay?”“No! I won’t!”After pushing and hitting him, Rose cried and yelled, covering her ears. She was also overwhelmed by a feeling of extreme dejection. Kevin was also very helpless. He would either be interrupted by her or his words would be covered by her noises. In the end, he couldn’t do anything else but sigh. Meanwhile, Rose struggled hard and lost her strength. She lay motionless in his arms.For God knows how long, the two people remained in that position. When Kevin came back to her senses, Rose had already fallen asleep.As he wiped away her tears, he noticed that she was huffing in her dreams. He smiled at her and dropped a kiss on her forehead. When he thought of the strange occurr
Kevin looked up and met Alex's gaze. "Do you think so as well?""Your care towards Scarlett is so obvious! From first glance, she does look a little like Scarlett..."However, after a few times of interactions, Alex felt that Rose was completely different from Scarlett. She was more lively and energetic. Even though she might be a bit much at times, people still gravitate towards her. She was just special!Kevin pressed his lips into a thin line and he looked over at Rose. No wonder she would think so!After a while, he said solemnly, "I did too little for her!"One sentence was enough to make Alex understand completely. His eyes widened unconsciously. Had Rose become more important than Scarlett?Without asking any further, Alex reminded him of ways to take care of Rose and then left.****Feeling drowsy, Rose opened her eyes again. A gleam of sunlight streamed through the window, dazzling her eyes.She knocked her slightly heavy head and looked at the bruise on her hand. She silentl
"It's not that I don't care about you or that I don't want to admit it. The situation last night was just an exception. If I had said it, everyone will be embarrassed, you would inevitably be embarrassed too! Rose, I don't want to hurt you and I don't want to hurt Scarlett either. Although she is my past, she was once one of the few very important people in my life! I will not quarrel with her, nor will I give her hope! Nevertheless, I still respect her. I will not embarrass her. I do treat her as a friend without any personal affections. I just want her to live a better life! It was just a play on occasion! I will try my best to avoid it in the future! Don’t worry about last night, okay? I was in utter shock when I saw you last night. Although you stood in the direction of my opponent, I knew how much you valued money. That was why I didn't put in my full effort during the game. I have always obtained full marks in shooting classes; it would've been easy for me to shoot down the ball
Feeling that her attitude had softened, Kevin hugged her tightly. "Okay! Then, I will have a garden full of Roses for you! We'll change the name of the place to Rose’s Garden, okay?"After thinking about it, Rose shook her head. Although it contained her name, it didn't sound right to her. "I like names that represent good fortune!"'Rose's Garden' sounded off. She preferred not to have her name included. After thinking about it, Rose took the initiative to hook her arms around his arms."Let's call it 'Promise Garden'! With that, remember the promise you made to me today! From now on, this will be our home and it has nothing to do with that person!"Changing the name from Star Garden to Promise Garden cheered Rose up. She truly liked it!After all, she was accustomed to living in this house. Since Scarlett didn't live in it before, Rose didn't have to insist on moving. After all, this place was full of memories of her and Kevin."Okay! It's up to you!"Yes, this was their home. Some
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
