"Hello viewers. I'm Alicia Brown," The female anchor introduced herself," And you are watching Lightning News. Today's hot top is about Rose Group which was accused of stealing a project from Trust Technology. But after the investigating it was proven that all the accusations against Rose Group were false. After further investigation it was brought to light that CEO of Trust Technology purposefully falsely accused Rose Group because it's CEO didn't agree to become Trust Technology's business partner. CEO of Trust Technology even went as far as creating false documents and data to bring Rose Group down. But due to their unbreakable security system Rose Group has survived a what could have been a great catastrophe. Trust Technology has lost the trust of hundreds of people and has lost all of it's business partners. It looks like Trust Technology which planed to destroy Rose Group actually ended up destroying up itself. Now many new companies are looking to become partners with Rose Group. This is what CEO of Rose Group said in an interview, 'My company has various branches in this country From Technology to cosmetics to clothes to kids toys to jewelry. When I started off with the Rose Technology people said I could not do it that it was impossible to run a tech company for a woman who has no connection. But I did it and proved people wrong. When I decided to open Rose Cosmetics People again said I could not do it and I would end up losing my company. But again and again I proved them wrong. How? Because I was determined. My mind was set and I couldn't be swayed. Yes the risks were very high each time but I took those risks and made the impossible, Possible. And if people like Mr. Jones (CEO of Trust Technology) think that they can take this company away from me then they are wrong. I won't just stand still and watch my hard work fall into the hands of greedy people like him. Let this event be a warning and a lesson to those people who are conspiring against me. ' In her statement she has clearly warned off those people who are conspiring against her. It seems that Rose group should not be underestimated of it's power. Further more it's seems that Clara Rose of Rose Group has decided to open a Book publishing company giving an opportunity for new and young writers. Will Clara Rose once again succeed or not that will be seen in the future. Next up-" The television was turned off.
A man in his mid 60's putted the television's controller down and picked up his phone which was besides him on the sofa. He then Called someone.
"Tell Andrew that he can inherit the company if he can get Rose Group otherwise one of his brothers is going to inherit it. I don't care if he does it by marrying her or by any other means as long as he gets his hand on that company. NOW!" He gave the order and ended the call with a smirk.
"That punk will definitely call me after hearing this. " He said with an evil smile on his face.
15 minutes later Andrew Called. The old man had an evil grin on his face. He accepted the call.
"Give it to Justin or Drake (Andrew's older brothers) I wouldn't care less. I already have my own company and I don't need yours. You can't control me anymore." Andrew said with hatred from the other side of the phone and hung up.
But the old man kept smiling.
"I knew you were going to decline that's why I prepared a gift for you." The old man said to himself. He then called his secretary and ordered, "Mmm send him that file."
"Yes Sir." His secretary answered and the old man ended his call.
"Don't blame me Andrew but you chose the hard way. You chose to make things more difficult for yourself. So bear the consequence.
Someone knocked at the door."Come in." Clara said in an exhausted tone.Clara's secretary Angelina came in with a folder in her hand. She looked at Clara who was working on the computer. She looked really tired. Angelina closed the door behind her."Another all nighter Coco?" Angelina asked looking at her, walking towards her.She glanced at Angelina before looking back at her computer."Aren't you getting too friendly with your boss?" She Asked while still typing on the computer."I'm serious Coco," Angelina said in a worried tone, "You have been working for four days straight with 2 hours of sleep each day. You're going to kill yourself.""I'm almost done. You know how much work we got after the false accusations against us." She told her.Angelina sighed."Yes but you're not a robot you know.
As soon as Clara got home she collapsed into her bed without changing her clothes. She closed her eyes and fell asleep. When she woke up it was already dark outside. She got up and stretched a little before she got out of bed. She went into the bathroom and took a hot bath. After that she went into the kitchen feeling hungry. She saw Angelina eating dinner."You're up." Angelina said seeing her."Yeah.""And you took a bath. Well you don't smell like rotten trash anymore." Angelina said not hiding her smile."Shut up. Otherwise you'll end up in a trash can." She said not hiding her annoyance."Oooo. Cranky. But of course you'd be cranky after today's events."She gave her a questioning look as to how she knew."Mr. Kim." Angelina answered to her look."He gossips like an old lady." She said sitting at the table.Dora (
"Why did I do that? Why did I kiss her? What the hell did I just do? I must've lost my mind." Andrew said annoyed at himself.He was sitting in his car shocked and regretful about what he had just done."Why did I had to do that of all the things I could've done why did I kiss her? And why the hell did she run away?"After he asked her to be his, she looked at him shocked and then ran away without even taking her things. Leo had picked up her things and ran after her while Andrew just stood there trying to figure out what had just happened. Then he finally realized that were people still whispering around him. He walked away from them slowly like nothing ever happened and then got out of the mall and sat inside his car."Uurrrraaaaaggggg!!! Let's just go first."He started his car and drove away.•••Clara sat in an office
“What the hell happened to you?!” Angelina asked shocked at Clara's appearance as she walked past her.“The kids were too rough.” Clara just answered without stopping or looking at her.She went straight into the room and closed the door behind her. She threw her bag on the bed and went into the bathroom. She turned on the tap and splashed the water in her face and then looked at the mirror. Her hair was a complete mess and it was pretty obvious that someone pulled her hair in a cat fight.She sighed.“That guy has some serious mental issues.”She turned off the water and went straight to her bed and collapsed onto it.There was a knock on the door. The door opened and Angelina poked her head into her room.“Are you ok?” Angelina asked.“Never been better.” She said tiredly, without glancing at her.“Mind tell me what happened? Because I don’t think
Everyone was staring at Andrew's hand during the meeting.“Umm Mr. Bloom? We can hold the meeting later, you should go to the hospital to get your hand treated first.” An employee picked up the courage to speak to him.“What now I’m going to have you to tell me what to do?” Andrew asked coldly without looking at him.“N-No Mr. Bloom it’s just that we are all worried about you that’s all.”“I won’t die from such a small thing.” Andrew said coldly flipping through the documents.“But your hand might get infected.”Andrew banged his uninjured hand on the desk.“If you’re worried about me dying and you not getting your salary than I assure you that you will get you damn money even if I die!” He looked at them coldly.Ever
Clara walked past Angelina's desk. Angelina after seeing her quickly got up and followed her into the office."You went to visit Andrew didn't you?" Angelina asked as soon as she sat down."Yes." She said putting the documents on the table."What's this?" Angelina tried to reach for the documents but Clara quickly took it away.She opened her drawer and put it in there and locked it."Angelina, don't put your nose in things that you are not meant to know about." She said a bit angry."Clara, I have been handling the media since yesterday and my phone is still ringing because of the reporters. I deserve an explanation.""You'll get one in a few days. And there is no need for you to take it down anymore." She said leaning back in the chair. She had her hand on her forehead."What do you mean?""I mean don't pull down the articles about me and Andrew kissing.""WHAT! What did he say that made you change your mind?"
~The Next Day~Clara and Angelina worked during the day and left the workplace early. Angelina went straight to a salon while Clara went home to pick out a dress.Angelina came home after a while.“Did you pick out a dress?” Angelina asked her.They were in Clara’s room getting ready.“Yes, this one.” She took out a flowery dress.“No, no. You are not wearing that.”“I couldn’t care less, Angel. I just want this day to get over with.” Clara said sitting down on the edge of her bed.“But, it’s still a party. And since we are going why not be in the spotlight?” Angelina told her looking around in her closet.Angelina picked out a midnight blue color silk cocktail for her.“Here, wear this. I&rsqu
The cake came in and the servants placed it in the middle of the table. Then as Drake came into the spotlight everyone started to sing the birthday.Drake blew the candles and cutted the cake. Everyone clapped and cheered for him.“Our turn.” Andrew said.He took a glass from the table and a spoon. He tapped the spoon against the glass. It made a bell like sound which diverted everyone’s attention towards him.He placed the glass and spoon back on the table.“Everyone,” he said in a resonant voice, “ since today is a happy occasion then let’s all add one more happy thing to today, shall we?”He then looked at Clara and held both her hands.“Clara,” he looked at her, “ I knew that when we met for the first time I fell in love with you and wanted to get married to you.”Everyone went quite and whispered to each other excitedly.Though Clara felt troubled
“I thought that you were going to tell me if something happens to her.” Leo complained. He had just come in with breakfast and found out that Clara had woken up. He was so relieved and happy to see her smiling. He hugged and scowled her too for getting herself in danger and then looked at Andrew annoyed that he didn’t tell him that’s she’s awake. “She woke up a few minutes ago. Plus I wanted to spend some time alone with her. And nothing happened to her.” Andrew said. “Okay, okay. Don’t start a fight.” She said laughing a little at the two. “We’re not fighting.” The two said at the same time. She smiled and shook her head at the two of them. “Hey, I love you both and I want you guys to get along too. Andrew.” She looked at him. “Yes?” “I wish that you would get along with Leo.” “Okay love but you wasted your wish and you have one left. So be careful about your last one.” Andrew reminded her. “Wish?” Leo
Andrew and Leo went back to the hospital Clara was admitted at. Leo went inside her room while Andrew sent the voice recording to the detective. After that, he also went inside the room. Clara was still lying unconscious on the bed. Andrew sat beside her on a stool and held her hand. Jasmin looked at him sadly. She tugged on Leo’s shirt. Leo looked at her. She moved closer to him and whispered something. Leo nodded. “Andrew, do you mind staying here with her? We need to go and check on our girl.” Andrew nodded without looking back. “I need to go to the office too. It must be hectic there.” Angelina said. “I’ll call if something happens.” Andrew said as he looked at Clara. Everyone left the room. It was quiet and the only sound was coming from the heart monitor. Andrew held the back of her hand to his cheek and looked at her. “Wake up please, Clara.” He whispered and kissed the back of her hand. A
Andrew and Leo were stopped in front of Drake’s room by the policemen and Jake. “Jake I need to speak with him.” Andrew said in his dominating tone. Jake felt a little small in front of him. “Fine, you can go, but he can’t.” Jake said and pointed at Leo. “My sister’s on her death bed and I can’t even confront the killer who put her there?” Leo asked, his voice full of fury. “I am terribly sorry about that but if you two fight with him then you two will get in trouble too and make the matter even worse.” Jake told them, “What Drake did is unforgivable but I don’t want you guys to turn out like him. This is exactly what he wants Andrew.” Jake looked at his brother desperately. Andrew took a deep breath. “Fine. But I still want to have a talk with him.” He said. Jake nodded at Andrew. “But only you.” Jake stressed. “Bu-“ Andrew put a hand on Leo's shoulder and stopped him from finishing his
The doctors quickly took her to the surgery room when they reached the hospital. Andrew and the rest of her family were waiting out. Andrew was sitting on the ground cover in Clara’s blood. When he bought her to the hospital the doctor told him that she had lost too much blood and because of that, he was extremely terrified of something happening to Clara. Leo was sitting on the chair with Jasmin beside him. She was trying to comfort him. Angelina was standing in a corner and glaring at Andrew. She was angry with him because she thought that he was the cause of all this mess, but she said nothing about it. After a few long hours of waiting the doctor came out. Everyone gathered around him. “Is she going to be alright?” Andrew asked desperately. “She has been stabilized, but we would need to watch her condition. But if she doesn’t wake up then I’m afraid that she might never wake up.” The doctor broke it down to them. Andrew collapsed o
Andrew called Clara again when he got home, but she again didn’t pick. It was pretty late so he thought that she might have gone to sleep. He changed his clothes and went to bed. He couldn’t sleep the entire night because he was restless and he had no idea why. He finally managed to fall asleep at 4 AM and woke up at 6 AM. He took a shower and changed his clothes and then again called Clara but her phone was off. He got worried. He took his car keys and drove to her house. He rang the doorbell a little urgently. Her housemaid came out and greeted him and let him in. “Who is the idiot who’s ringing the bell-like a manic?” Angelina said coming from behind she stopped when she saw Andrew, “Oh it’s this idiot. What are you doing here?” she asked coming towards him. The housemaid left when she was no longer needed. “Where’s Clara?” he asked urgently. “What?” she looked at him surprised, “Hasn’t she been with you since yesterday?” “N
Andrew was being questioned by the detectives as they were investigating his father’s murder. Jake came running in as the detectives went back into David’s room. “What happened?” Jake asked Andrew. “Can’t you see?” Andrew gestured to their father’s room, “Someone killed the old man.” Jake fell down on the chair in shock and grief. Even though Andrew hated his father to the core he felt a pinch of pain in his heart. “How did this happen? He was fine when I left.” Jake said. “Life is unpredictable. Do you know where Drake is? I’ve been trying to reach him but his phone is off.” “I don’t know he just said he was going to hang around with a friend.” Andrew sighed sharply with a frown and call Drake’s number again. His phone was still off. “It’s very strange. He called me a few minutes ago but now his phone is off.” Andrew said. “He called? And you answered?” Jake asked surprised. “Yeah… why?” “You ne
Clara went home after talking with Andrew but now had to deal with Angelina. “You spend the night out again.” Angelina said, this time disapprovingly. “I am a grown woman. Stop treating me like a kid.” Clara said irritated. “Then don’t come crying if he leaves you again.” Angelina said annoyed. “Don’t judge a relationship if you don’t know anything about it. And stop talking to me like you are my parents. I already have enough on my mind.” “Fine!” Angelina snapped. “Fine!” she snapped back and went to her room. Angelina was just jealous of Clara that Andrew and she were back together but she and her ex were finished. She thought that it was unfair to her that Clara always had it easy. The two didn’t talk with each other the whole week. They were both angry with each other and Clara was always on edge because of the additional stress and work. She would sometimes go out with Andrew and would occasionally get annoyed at h
Clara woke up when she heard Andrew mumble and struggle. She looked at him and saw that he was having a nightmare. She sat up quickly and tried to wake him holding the blanket over her chest. “Andrew, wake up.” She shook him. He was still having a nightmare. He had a painful expression and had cold sweat on his forehead. “Andrew, wake up!” She said louder and shook him harder. His eyes flew open as he woke up from the terrible nightmare. He looked at Clara breathing heavily. He then got up and hugged her. He was frightened by what he saw. “Hey, it’s okay it was just a nightmare.” She hugged him back and comforted him. “Don’t leave me. Don’t go away.” He told her, hugging her even tighter. “I’m not going anywhere. Shhh.” She patted his back. After a while when he calmed down he leaned back and looked at her. “Are you feeling better?” she asked caressing his cheek and looking at his eyes. “I’m still afraid
Andrew didn’t believe him. He grabbed his collar angrily. “Brandon I will fire you if you are lying to me!” Andrew raised his voice at him. “I’m not lying Mr. Bloom. It’s all over the news.” Andrew released him and went inside. He turned on the TV. Andrew’s heart sank as he saw the news. Brandon wasn’t lying. The plane that Clara was supposed to be on exploded as soon as it took off. “No, no, no. This can’t be happening. I can’t lose you too. No Clara please.” He said as tears fell down his face. He ran to his room and picked up his phone. “Please, please don’t be on that plane please.” He said as he dialed her number. Her number couldn’t be reached. He tried again and again but the result was the same. “NOO!” He yelled and threw away his phone hard on the ground. It broke into pieces. “No, no.” he cried as he slowly sat down on the floor. “You can’t be dead. You can't leave me like my mother did
