****AT PRESENT****Aaron Patterson-A Week laterIt's been a week since I knows that Mia is my half-sister. Mom, Dad, Mia, and I are having breakfast. It is like a routine that we have a silent breakfast and dinner. When I come back home I don't feel at home at all now."Aaron, There is an important party tonight at Mr. Anderson's. I want you there so we can get investment from Mr. Anderson for our new projects." Dad said. I don't understand how can be Mr. Anderson still have so many investment projects when their company showing negative growth constantly. I nodded and left for the office."John, Come to my office" I called my assistant.John comes inside " I want all information about Mr.Anderson. All means all" I order him. He nodded and left. At eveningI was getting for the party. I am trying suits which are bought by my designer. I select the suit and wear my watch and spray some perfume and set my hair ready to go party. All day I was studying Mr. Anderson and his family backgro
Aaron Patterson-"clap clap clap" everyone is clapping when I finished my presentation. "Thank you so much, everyone. This is my presentation. I want your opinion on this Mr.Anderson" I asked, I was confident because I was already prepared, And I knew how much Mr.Anderson needs a project like mine."Very good Aaron. It was such a brilliant project." Mr.Anderson said He looks agreeable to my project in the way he praises the project. "Yes Aaron, it's a wonderful project," June said Excitedly. The way she is looking at me I knew she is interested in me. "This project needs lots of money and this hotel is in the countryside. I don't think it makes much profit. So, We shouldn't invest so much money in just one project." My nose scrunched when I hear another feminine voice turn my attention to Rose who retorted while looking at his father."Rose, Read the proposal first then give your opinion." Before I could say something Mr.Anderson already replies to Rose. Anger became visible on her
Next day at dinnerAaron Anderson I was wearing my Armani suit. I look at my reflection in the mirror, I don't believe I am going to have arranged marriage, Who was so against it that I will never marry for business, Look, what I am doing?I hear a knock "Young master, All the guest is here, sir asking for you," Our housekeeper informed me."Yes, I am coming," I told, Did last minute touch-up.When I reached downstairs Mr. Anderson's and his whole family sitting in the hall."Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson," I greet them with a bright smile, This is my business skills. And handshake with Mr. Anderson."Hello, Aaron, how are you?" Mr. Anderson responded to my greets."I am good, sir, and you? You are looking beautiful Mrs.Anderson" I asked While giving my full attention to Mrs.Anderson who was standing near Mr.Anderson."Very well," Mr. Anderson said, He put his hand on my shoulder, Mr.Anderson look at June "Meet your to-be fiance, June," Mr. Anderson introduce us.I turn my attention t
Rose Anderson June's wedding is in a week with Aaron Patterson, I hate this man, No one ever treated me the way he did. I know that our company doesn't do well recently, but I didn't know it was so serious that we are going to bankrupt. I talk to dad, But as always he didn't interested to involve me in any matter. All I know is we need Aaron's project. That scared me if Aaron gets involved in Anderson's enterprise it's normal that his influence will increase as well as June's also.Everyone is busy with June's wedding preparation, So, June does not come to the office, I have to do her work as well at the office. It's hectic for me. It was midnight, everything is quiet, only typing sound is coming from my office. I was working, I picked up the glass to drink water, but it was empty, I was going downstairs to the kitchen to get water when I went through June's room I heard June's voice."Mom, didn't you see that Aaron's attention was on Rose? His eyes were only following her." June sai
*MATURE CONTENT*Aaron Patterson"Just tell me why you drug me" I Shout but she didn't reply. What the hell she is thinking to drug me? She is insane."Because I don't want this marriage to happen," She said while struggling to remove my hold around her neck."Why you don't want this marriage to happen?" I asked her.She didn't say anything. she was just looking into my eyes.I remove my hand. I snicker a little as I run my fingers through my hair. My body was like on fire."Give me the key" I screamed, but Rose didn't say anything. I try to control myself. I throw all the things in the room on the floor. I was like a beast."Leave the room, Rose" I shouts but she didn't move an inch just stood there."LEAVE THE ROOM ROSE RIGHT NOW" I shouted again"I am not going anywhere," Rose announced and determined not to leave." Look, Rose, I can not control myself, and I don't know what will I do with you, just leave," I said trying to convince Rose. but my body was on fire."I am not going a
Rose AndersonI woke up and saw the unfamiliar ceiling, where had I been? I turn and see Aaron sleeping next to me. he was laying next to me. I quickly sit up. I was naked, my whole body hurting. I glare at Aaron. He is a beast, although His sleeping face is handsome, his eyebrows are big and his nose is pointed. he has Thin lips. He has a great body. He is handsome. When I looked at his face all scenes from Last night started spinning in my mind. I looked for my phone. I sleep near him and take our pictures. I get up without making any sound. When my feet touch the floor."Ahh," I scream and fell to the floor. I immediately looked toward Aaron to check if he is awake or not. He didn't wake up. I looked around my clothes are all ripped so I picked up Aaron's clothes and wore them. I walked like a toddler. I left the hotel. I was wearing his white shirt. I sit in my car close my eyes and rest my head on the steering wheel silently for 10 minutes.I comes back home and goes directly to
Rose Anderson I sense someone coming and standing beside me. I looked at the figures who stand next to her."Hello, Rose," Aaron's mom said to me. I don't know how to respond to her. I am ashamed of what I did."Hello, Mrs.Patterson," I greet her with a little polite smile. "Shall we go home, Mrs. Patterson?" She said. I looked at her in confusion."Now you are also Mrs. Patterson, Rose. I think we should not call each other by the same name. How about you call me Mom" She said sensing my confusion."You are not angry with me,?" I asked her."No, if my son is happy then everything is okay with me but if you make him unhappy I will be angry with you," She said assured smile."I know you, He is lying when he said that both of you love each other but I believe in my son and his decision. He always makes decisions while considering all the aspects of the matter. But now I believe as his wife you will always be there for him. I am not asking anything big from you Rose, I just want you to
Aaron PattersonI left the Room. I was walking out the gate, I stop when I see Mia standing there." Where are you going? " She asked while smiling."It's none of your business," I arrogantly told her. "But today is your wedding night and you're leaving your bride alone," She mumbled." I told you it's none of your business," I said while passing her but she grabs my hand. I turned to see her, she is crying. "Kane told me you didn't agree to a date with me for a bet. I know you don't love me, but we are family, please don't talk to me like that," she said in her sobbing.I staring her, I don't know what to say to her. It must be difficult for her to know she is someone else's daughter. She is just a victim, The man she loves turns out her half-brother, it is not her fault." I don't know, Mia, What should I say to you? But I am sorry" I genuinely apologize."I know, We can be friends," she said.I nodded and smile. She also smiles a take out her hand to handshake. I handshake her. M
Aaron, taken aback by Rose's unwavering determination, admitted that he had never truly loved anyone before. He had always gotten what he wanted, but Mia's refusal had sparked something new in him. He confessed that he had developed genuine feelings for Rose but struggled to express them. Aaron sat alone in his office, his mind filled with conflicting emotions. He had always been seen as the confident and arrogant man who got what he wanted, but deep down, he knew there was something missing in his life—a void that he couldn't quite comprehend. As he stared out the window, his gaze fixed on the bustling city below, he began to have a conversation with himself, attempting to understand his feelings for his wife, Rose. Aaron: What is it about Rose that captivates me? Why does she have this power over me that no one else ever had? Inner Voice: Perhaps it's because Rose sees beyond the facade you present to the world. She challenges you, pushes you to be better, and refuses to be contr
"The meeting--" Mia said in a slow voice. Mia's eyes looked hurt don't know why but Rose feel happy when she see Mia's eyes. "Just prepare for the meeting I will be coming" Aaron looked at his wristwatch. Then he realized that it is almost time for the meeting. When Mia is about to turn "Mia, You can't just barge in just like that" Mia stop when she hears Aaron's dry words. Mia's face gets to drop."I am sorry. It's just I get used to all this" Mia pursed her lips together. "Don't get used to it on your own" Aaron's eyes get narrowed and keep his hands in his pocket. Mia is the urge of crying. "I am going," Rose who wants to escape from this awkward institution said it. But before she can go Aaron grabs her hand. Rose turns and raises her eyebrow like she is questioning. "We are not done yet," Aaron said. "What you need to talk to her?" It is Mia who said this. Rose looked at her in disbelief. [She still has that much confidence to ask this]"It is not your concern" "Why? I am
Rose once again standing front of Aaron's office. She can't anticipate what Aaron want. Can't he let her a peacefull life? Thinking that Rose take a step inside the office. All the workers know Rose so they get up and bow her with respect. Rose forcefully smile and directly wallk toward Aaron's office. Rose divert her eye sight and look at the side office which were hers but not know. -Mia- The name is written outside of the office. Rose's nostrils flared when she read it. Everything about Mia makes her angry. In no time Mia noticed Rose there. "What are you doing here?" Mia come out and asked Rose but Rose didn't look interested in entraining her question. She looks at Aaron's empty office. "I am asking what are you do--""Where he is?" Rose asked without listening to Mia. "Tell me What are you doing here?" Instead of answering Rose's question Mia continuously asked the same question. Rose can see the hint of nervousness on Mia's face. Rose smile and walk close to her "Who are
Morning.As promised Mia leave the house. Rose doesn't know how this happened but she is happy as long as she doesn't have to face her. Days go Aaron knows he has to explain to Rose but Rose never mentions it and he didn't explain it. Rose stays in the same room as Aaron. Firstly she did not agree but she is a newbie in taking care of a newborn and didn't want to disturb anyone so she agree. Aaron is also the father so he also must have experience how to handle his son. In a month, Rose can see how much he loves Aiden. Aaron maybe not be a good husband but he is a very good father. Every night whenever Aiden woke up and cry, Aaron woke up first and take care of him even though he has to wake up early to go office but he never woke up Rose. Rose maintains a certain distance between both of them. they talk when it is necessary. Aiden gets familiar with everyone so he didn't make a fuss that he wants to stay with Rose which makes Rose assured that she can go back office now. She does
Before Aaron realized what he said Rose already made up her mind to leave the house. Aaron run and grab her hand"Rose...Let's talk""There is nothing to talk" Rose violently but carefully snap Aaron's hand. "Rose...Please let's talk" Aaron's voice is tender like he wants peaceful settlements. "what do you want to talk about when you know that is why I agree to come back but you are reluctant to fulfil your promise," Rose said in anger but not so loud that will disturb her little ones' peaceful sleep. "What is she talking about? And what promise you made with her?" Me. Patterson who seem quiet and didn't say anything even Rose come back finally asked what tapping in his house. "Dad, Let's talk later" Aaron is quite focused on Rose. did not interested in explaining Mr Patterson. "If she didn't leave then I will leave" Before Mr Patterson said anything Rose already said this. "Who?" It is Mr Patterson who asked her. Rose knows how much Mr Patterson hates her and how much he like
."Mom"A woman looking at herself the in mirror. Although she is pretty she is trying to make herself more pretty. The red lipstick that is wearing makes her facial feature enhance more. A little girl near her tries to get her attention as she called her so many times. But that woman is too busy to notice her. The little girl grabs her gown."Mom, I am hungry" the little girl mumbled afraid her mom will scold her. The woman didn't listen to her, the little girl mumbling but the woman didn't listen to her. "Mom, I am hunger" As the little girl tries to volume up her voice she accidentally touches the nail paint bottle, and that bottle slips on the woman's gown. "WHAT THE HELL ROSE" The woman furiously scream. "DO YOU KNOW HOW EXPENSIVE THIS GOWN IS, ALREADY I SPENT SO MUCH ON THIS DRESS SO YOUR FATHER GET IMPRESSED AND GIVE US SOME MONEY BUT I GUESS WHEN I GIVE BIRTH TO YOU I SHOULD FORGET THAT YOU CAN EVER HELP ME. WHY YOU DIDN'T BORN AS A BOY? I SHOULD HAVE KILLED YOU WHEN YOU WERE
"Welcome back" Aaron stop the car in front of his house. He turns his gaze to Rose who was sitting beside him. The irritated and angry face of Rose clearly shows how much hated this all. "Do you know what you did is called blackmail?" Rose doesn't give a slight glance at Aaron and looks in front. Aaron's facial expression changes what it was earlier now it is not a happy face. "You didn't leave the option for me" Aaron's dry words didn't convince Rose as her face changed into furious. "let's go"Aaron opens a car door for her. Rose carries her son in an arm in a protected way. She looks at the house in front of her. Although this house doesn't only bring bad memories but some good memories as well she never wanted to see this again. She started when she felt a slight touch on her hand. It was Aaron who grab her hand in his hand. "Come on" He told, Rose also didn't protest and she hold his hand. "I hope you remember what you promise me," Rose didn't turn her gaze to Aaron and to
" Ar-are you pl--planning to go back with Aaron as you have a child together" The hesitation in Nick's voice is noticeable. Rose's expression changed "Just because we have a child together does not mean we have to be together," said in an irate voice. Nick who has serious expression changes in relaxation as he takes a sigh of relief. "Now you should take a rest, I will come to meet you tomorrow," Nick told Rose and leave the room while leaving the room he crossed Aaron who was angry” as clenched fists, furrowed brows, tense jaws, and lips and flared nostrils. "Good Night" Nick greet him but didn't wait for Aaron's reply and left. Aaron did not look at Nick and straight looking Inside the room towards Rose. He hears a conversation between Rose and Nick.He marched Inside the room. Rose who was coaxing her child startled when she felt someone suddenly Enter. When she look at Aaron she knew he is not in good mood but she doesn't care "What are you doing here?" She looks at Aaron in amaz
Rose glances at Aaron. “What happened?” Aaron frown. “Give a name to him” She licked her lips as she doesn't want to say but had spoken those words. Aaron feels happy as Rose asked him to give his child his name. “Aiden Patterson” Aaron enunciate. Rose turned her face toward her newborn. “Aiden” she smiles as mumbled his name. “Wahhh” Aiden starts crying. “Why he is crying” Rose get frighted as she doesn’t know how to calm him down well it was her first time being a mother. “He must be hungry” The nurse figures out why he is crying. Rose takes a sigh at least nothing was wrong with her child. “You can lactate him?” The nurse inquired of Rose. Aaron and Nick get embarrassed as they hear Nurse and Rose's conversation. “I think, we should wait outside” Aaron suggested to Which Nick agreed. They walk toward the door but Nurse stops them. “Mr. Patterson, You can stay here. She needs your help” the nurse told Aaron. “How can he help?” With a blushed face Rose asked immediately. The nurse l
