As everyone's eyes coalesced at one point, the music played slowly and James's emotional voice followed thereafter. "My need for you, (is) my life, your love, I am unable to forget. No matter how hard I try, all day and night, your image, I cannot wipe away (from my mind). ""Never at any time in my dreams, did it ever occur to me, (that) I would have to continue living without you...""Dearest, if I receive a sign from you, (then) I would return, breaking all promises..."****Like in a movie, their once-found memories, with his three years of repression, skimmed through James's mind. At this moment, his eyes were moist, and even his voice was full of emotions with a touch of huskiness. During the three years he and Rose were apart, he felt just like this song. For countless days and nights, he drowned his sorrows with wine and had nightmares. The thoughts of her constantly tormented him. He even dreamed of being with her. As he pined for her, he was bound by sadness and it blocked
On the other hand, Rose, who had been holding a cocktail the whole time, was lost in her thoughts. James and her sweet and painful past were like the high and low strings of a lute, inadvertently tugging at her heart.Rushing forward, Kevin snatched the glass out of her hand. "Don't be greedy. You'll get drunk!"Coming back to her senses, Rose's field of vision was full of him. "Hubby, what are you doing out here? Are you done talking? Did I slip away for too long?"Giggling, Rose subconsciously tried to look at her phone to check the time.Stroking her hair lovingly, Kevin consciously blocked her view. He said softly, "It's getting late. It's time for us to go home!"Instead of staying here and worrying, they should go home and do something more meaningful. "Okay!"To be honest, he filled Rose's entire thoughts as soon as he came over. Meanwhile, the scene on the stage had long since faded out of sight, getting out of mind. Organizing her bag, Rose was just about to get down from th
In the car, the two embraced intimately. Sparks flew as they kissed.If it weren't for the inappropriate location, Kevin would have wanted to engulf her right away.No matter how passionate he was, he tried to suppress it. He didn't have a fetish for putting on a free show for others out in the open. Hence, no matter how much he couldn't help it, they only kissed. Even the movements of his hands were restrained. After all, paparazzi were everywhere. They often appear at times like this!Kevin was particularly selfish when it came to Rose. He didn't want anyone to see her, not even through a blurry or suspicious video! Kevin then cupped her face and pulled the seat belt over after giving her a peck on the corner of her lips.In a seductive low voice, he said, "Sit tight. We'll continue at home!" "Hubby..." Hooking her arms around his neck, Rose's eyelashes fluttered as she rubbed Kevin's neck lightly in a petulant manner."What's the matter?"Seeing her hesitation, Kevin said with br
Still, why did the thought of this word give him a sweet feeling?Kevin found out that he was surprisingly not repulsed by the idea.Did he fall in love with a woman so easily? It was unbelievable! What did he love about her then?Pretty? Proud? Capricious? Lovely? Rude?As the voices of doubt and certainty collided in his head, his eyes froze as he looked at her who was still in a mood, tugging at the hangers in the bedroom.Clutching a change of clothes and pajamas, Rose then turned to the bathroom.Her steps were wide and hurried, not at all ladylike... Kevin watched her into the bathroom. Only with the sound of rushing water did he enter the bedroom. Sitting on the mini sofa in front of the bed, the corner of his eyes rested on the bathroom door.She was indeed beautiful, rude but lovely! She was well-behaved and delightful. Even when she wasn't, she wasn't obnoxious.In the end, Kevin concluded that she was perfect for him! With her around, he was always happy. Even if she were t
The next day, Rose opened her eyes and began to feel depressed again at the thought of reporting to Star International.Brushing her teeth in the bathroom, she looked sideways at Kevin. Her gaze nearly burned two holes through him. It was a good thing she didn't give him a few kicks, let alone breakfast.Meanwhile, Kevin was self-aware. He got ready and then headed to the office for breakfast. While Rose was changing her clothes, Kevin noticed that instead of her previous positive and sunny disposition, she was full of unhappiness. At that, he felt as if something was weighing on his heart. He felt very uncomfortable. He then went forward and hugged her. "You should try to work at Star International first. If you're not used to being there... we'll talk about it then.""If I feel uncomfortable there, will you let me leave?" Turning back, Rose pouted with a pitiful look on her face.Pinching her face, Kevin regretted being frank and outspoken. If he said yes, she would give up right
When Scarlett first gave up on Kevin, she felt a little reluctant. At present, Kevin had soared to great heights!There was nothing more painful and ridiculous in this world than having the person she once gave up becoming unreachable currently.At this point, nobody could understand Scarlett's feelings, nor could they feel worse than she did. However, instead of pitying her, they were all pushing her and peeking at her embarrassment.If this news got out, her phone might explode with notifications again! Although her so-called friends in the past had booed her with concern, which one of them hadn't paid attention to this matter? Every time they chatted, they either asked her about her wedding or invited her out. They were either trying to use her as a bridge to hook up with Kevin or make fun of her.To be honest, there weren't many secrets in this circle.The more those people envied her before, the more they enjoyed her misery at present.But it just happened that even Kevin had tu
Along the way, Daniel dutifully explained the surroundings while Rose listened. She didn't concentrate on what he was saying, as she had no intention of staying here for long. On the contrary, she mentally cursed Kevin. She, therefore, acted calm on the surface."Oh!"Just as she replied, the doors of the lift opened. She looked up and the words "Floor 63" emblazoned next to "International Affairs Department" came into view.Walking out through the door, Rose seemed to remember something before she said in a low voice, "Thanks!""My pleasure."A smile was returned before Daniel guided her toward the office hall off to the side. As soon as they entered, a clamor was noted in the hall, followed by various unsolicited greetings. "Mr. Waytt...""Good day, Mr. Waytt!"Nodding in response, Daniel headed straight for the office inside. Following behind, Rose couldn't help but roll her eyes. Daniel resembled someone. He was probably Kevin's duplicate! However, that showed how much influence
They acted one way in public and another in private. As soon as Peace left, the expression and tone of these people changed completely.All the goodwill Rose had felt from her new colleague was instantly erased. Even the thought of making do was gone from her mind.Sure enough, everything was just as she had thought it would be.The more pressure and competition there was, the more intense the comparisons for sure.In a company as prestigious as Star International, even an ordinary employee would act as if he or she were on a pedestal. Therefore, it was to be expected that things would be this way within the company. In front of Rose were several women wearing uniform black jackets and white shirts with short black skirts. At first glance, they all looked like ordinary suits, but on closer inspection, they were all dressed differently. Some of the suits had been made to fit well at the waist. Some had white blouses with low lapels, and some skirts were not just shorter but had also o
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
