“We didn’t have proper evidence and strong backing.” Luthor replied.

“Hmmm….. That could be a side reason. The real reason was money and power. You don’t fucking need an evidence to destroy someone’s life. First of all, your family has no money to get a proper lawyer for the case, you guys have no money to fund the case, those were your flaws. The company in charge of the contract was a big corporation, even if they knew that your father was being framed after listening to the evidence you provided. They surely wouldn’t want to lose face and have to apologize to a small construction company because of the mistake of their general manager. The judge in charge of the case has also been settled properly so no matter what evidence you have to prove your father’s innocence was completely useless.” Rose explained to Luthor as if she was present when the whole incident happened.

Luthor just stared at her in awe and admiration. She was a real genius than he actually thought. “But the company

    She didn't realize that when she was talking earlier, her expression had really darkened into a murderous one. Luthor could sense pure hatred and killing intent when she talked about serving justice to the people who harmed her. It seems clear to him now that she was out of payback or something. “I'm confident and sure of you and your family that you guys won't let my investment go to waste so let's just go along with that answer and don't question me any further.” Rose remarked, waving her hand casually signaling him to not ask any more questions. “The more time you spend with me, the more you would know about Roseline Gray." She added. Luthor paused his lips in order to shut up because he had already gotten enough answers to most of his questions even though he still had more to ask. “Fine, I would agree to be your personal driver until I pay back the money you paid for my mom's debt. I would have to think carefully about what you just told me about helping my family." He said.

    Earlier when they left Cobra's place, Rose had told both she and Luthor in the car when they were heading back to the shop to keep her from buying the entire Azure Prime Property Managements and her becoming the new chairwoman a secret. She even told them to not tell Maya and if Maya asked them how they sorted the matter, they should tell their mother that Rose was just able to pay back the money which Maya would believe because she was aware of Rose's background. Rose knew that Maya's attitude toward her would change, she had barely gotten Maya to address her casually and it could change if she knew Rose was the new chairwoman of Azure Prime Property Managments. Amelia was not slow witted to not figure out that Rose has an hidden agenda apart from her family background. No matter how Influential Gray family might be, they don't possess that kind of connection to do what Rose did. “It has nothing to do with you guys' age and her family status has nothing to do with what I'm saying

    “You guys have really cleared this place up. It looks almost the way it was before." Luthor remarked as he strolled over to where his family were sitting. “What are you doing here, brother?” Amelia was the first person to ask while looking at Luthor.“Didn’t say you would be returning back later? This isn’t the usual time you always come back. Did something happen? What about Rose? Has she arrived back home safely?” Unlike Amelia who just asked one question, Maya fired questions at Luthor one after the other without giving him the chance to reply to Amelia's question. “Woah, mom, at this rate you’re going to bury big brother with questions without giving him the chance to reply.” Simon was the one who remarked, making Maya realize that Luthor had not been able to answer any of her questions. It was because she was too worried that something had happened that’s why she was unable to control the way she questioned Luthor. “Thank you, Simon. You’re the only one who realizes the kind o

    “No! What are you apologizing and talking about?" Maya waved her hand at Luthor and asked. She didn't understand the reason why he was apologizing to her. “Weren't you angry at the job he got?" Amelia was the one who asked her mother. She was pleased with what Luthor said when he said he got the job from Rose, but she had noticed the change in their mother's mood and thought she didn't really like it. “Why would I be angry when your brother got a job better than the one he had before? I'm happy to hear it. I was just thinking about how Rose has been such a heaven sent angel to this family." Maya replied sincerely. Why would she be mad? Her son got to be the personal driver of the daughter of the Gray family's oldest daughter. She knew how much trouble one would have to go through if they wanted that job but the person who needed the driver asked her son to be her driver and even asked him to be her personal driver rather than just a regular driver. This was a great improvement in th

    She briefly replayed everything that had happened today, all the way from the incident at Maya’s restaurant, her encounter with Cobra who she didn’t know existed until she met him today, her new business which she bought today and finally her hiring Luthor as her personal driver and telling him about her investment in his family. “I hope he doesn’t disappoint me and give a positive response tomorrow,” She muttered gently before sitting up on her bed and grabbing her laptop. Even though she had a really long day, her work for today wasn’t done yet. She had asked Luthor to come tomorrow so that she can buy the car he would use to drive her, she knew it might get dramatic as well tomorrow so she decided to prepare for it. After tying a few things on her laptop, she grabbed her phone and dialed Nancy’s number. She knew it was a bit late in the night but she had no choice but to call Nancy because she needed her help and she was the only person she could think of at the moment. “Hello R

    Meanwhile, Luthor was lying face up on his bed in his room. He was staring up at the ceiling as he mind was occupied with different thoughts. He had only told Maya about the job offer Rose gave him but skipped the part where she said she wanted to invest in their family and would help them release their father. He wasn’t sure how Maya would take this matter so he chose to not tell her yet. He suddenly snapped out of his thoughts when he heard a knock on his room door. “Come in.” He answered and the door pushed open as Amelia strutted into the room. “Mia, it's you? What brought you here?” Luthor asked as he adjusted to a sitting position on the bed when he saw his younger sister in his room. “Well, I came to see you.” Amelia replied casually as she walked over to the bed and sat down by the edge of it while looking at Luthor . “What happened? Is there something you want to tell me?” He asked with a raised brow. “I should be the one asking if there is anything you want to tell us?

    *****The next day*******Rose walked out of her dressing room fully dressed in long black pants, black blouse and a long black and white stripes coat. She paired her outfit with a white sneakers and tied her hair into a low ponytail. Her dressing style looked mature and casual because she was an adult in mentality. After she was satisfied with her look, she grabbed her black backpack and strolled out of the room.It was the weekend, when she got downstairs, she wasn't surprised when she didn't see both Sofia and Beatrice again. The mother and daughter must have gone out again since they always have plans. This was how they treated her in her past life, leaving her alone at home and not bothering about. Well, Rose cared less about them now because she also has a place to be right now and her uber ride she had ordered was already waiting outside for her. “Young Miss, you're going out?" Paige asked when she saw how Rose was fully dressed in an outing outfit.“Yes. It's the weekend so I

    Rose looked at Luthor as he gave the name of the car shop to the driver who nodded his head. It seems like she was right by asking Luthor to give the addresses. Not only because he was a taxi driver but also because he was a son of the Hoult family. They might be so wealthy but they were still a third-tier family in the past, meaning the son of such a family should have knowledge about places like this and she was right.“You've told Mrs. Maya about the job I offered you right, brother Luthor." Rose asked as she turned to look at Luthor.“Yes," Luthor calmly nodded his head.“Good. I wouldn't want her to be shocked when she finds out." Rose remarked with a relieved expression. “Is that all you're going to ask?" Luthor asked, expecting some more important questions from Rose.“Did you want me to ask more questions?" Rose raised her brow at him. She had an inkling what he meant but was going to act like she didn't.“Fine, since you want me to ask more questions, I would then. Was Mrs.

    "Shut up!” Victor snapped sharply, his voice quivering with rage. The injustice he felt burned like a firestorm inside him. “They beat me up! They should be begging for my forgiveness! I’m going to sue them all and throw them in jail!” His eyes blazed as he glared at the crowd, his words venomous. “How dare you mess with me? You’re all dead!” The crowd erupted into sneers and laughter. “If anything happens to us, the world will know it’s the Grays who did it,” someone retorted. “You’ll face justice soon enough.” Another voice chimed in, “Miss Rose Gray, it’s pointless to be kind to people like them. They don’t know the meaning of gratitude!” “They’re heartless,” a third agreed. “The more you tolerate them, the worse they’ll treat you.” “Some people are just born wicked,” an older man said, shaking his head. “Victor Gray is the perfect example.” Rose, standing at the center of the storm, glanced at Victor with a faint trace of pity. She sighed softly and said, “But he’s still my

    The Gray couple stood devastated, their carefully constructed façade crumbling under the weight of the truth. William seemed to freeze, his face twitching with barely restrained fury. For a moment, he looked like a man teetering on the brink of madness. How can I possibly agree? Everyone is watching and listening. But those shares are mine. MINE. Rose kept her gaze fixed on the floor, her shoulders hunched like a frightened lamb. Her small frame trembled slightly, evoking pity from the onlookers. Poor girl. The crowd whispered amongst themselves. Born into wealth but treated like an outcast in her own family. Even her own father uses her without hesitation. Beatrice’s fists were clenched so tightly her nails dug into her palms. Her mind was racing. No. We can’t give those shares back. They’re ours. Sophia’s and Victor’s future depend on them. She can’t take them from us! Sophia stood frozen, her face burning with suppressed anger. Yet, she dared not speak, remembering the backla

    "How could a father steal from his own daughter? Or is she not even considered his daughter?” “Is the Gray Corporation really that desperate now?” Outraged whispers spread among the crowd. Some female reporters expressed their disgust. “Do you only see your son as your child? What about your daughter? This is outrageous!” Someone chimed in, “He surely cares for his daughter, it all just depends on which daughter you're referring to. And it's obvious that you mean Sophia. Look at her outfit! That dress alone is worth more than $100,000, and her jewelry must cost a fortune of a million. However , look at the poor Miss Roseline Gray…” All eyes turned to Rose, and the difference was undeniable. “My God, it seems like the ex-wife’s daughter hasn't been treated well.” “It’s clear who gets the love and resources in this family…” Beatrice Gray’s face tightened as she realized the shift in the room’s mood, but it was too late. Sophia, unable to contain her anger, stood up and snapped a

    It was a speech prepared and arranged for Rose to deliver, and it would have sounded far more convincing if she had done so. However, Rose had stayed quiet the entire time, leaving William Gray with no choice but to do it himself."Fake? Photoshop? That’s the best explanation you can offer? Ridiculous! Do you think we’re so blind that we can’t tell the difference between fake and real? Does he truly think we’re stupid?"Some reporters exchanged skeptical glances, their pens pausing mid-sentence. The crowd seemed to share the same sentiment, murmuring in agreement, except for a small group of reporters.Before the other reporters had the chance to challenge him, a few voices rang out from the front row.“Mr. Gray is absolutely correct," one reporter said with exaggerated conviction. "The video lacks credibility. It's easy to manipulate footage these days, especially with advanced editing software."Another voice quickly added, "I agree. It’s well-edited, but if you look closely, you

    ---The press conference was held at the luxurious Riverview Grand Hotel, a venue known for hosting high-profile events. The large conference room was packed to capacity with journalists, photographers, and reporters from various media, all eager to catch a glimpse of the trending Gray family.As soon as Rose entered the room with William, Beatrice, Victor, and Sophia, the reporters surged forward like a swarm of hungry predators."Roseline Gray, what’s your opinion on the recent video?""Roseline Gray, how do you feel about being attacked by your half-brother Victor Gray?""This isn’t the first time, is it? Why have you stayed silent about the abuse?""Your father didn’t defend you—have you ever resented him for it?""How do you feel about the way your stepmother treats you?""Doesn’t your stepsister Sophia support you either? Do you feel completely isolated?""Roseline Gray, I heard you came back to the country, so what did you do to be beaten up by your step brother?”Question afte

    ………The next day, Rose dressed carefully for the press conference. She applied a touch of makeup to cover her bruises, though some marks were still visible. She chose a white summer dress, its delicate design giving her an air of fragility.When she descended the stairs, Beatrice was waiting, her irritation evident as Rose had made them for a long time on purpose.“Why are you wearing that? Pick a brighter color! You look better in something cheerful. And put more makeup on!” Beatrice protested as she scanned what Rose was wearing.‘What is she trying to do? Is she trying to look weak on purpose?’ Beatrice fumed internally. ‘This conference is meant to prove the video was false, not the opposite! If anything bad happens to my son, you’ll pay for it!’ she seethed.Rose’s eyes filled with tears as she replied meekly, “Dr. Noah said makeup could cause scarring if applied before my cuts heal. But I thought it would look too obvious without anything, so I used a little to cover most of the

    They began the game in silence, the soft clink of chess pieces the only sound. Frank’s moves were calculated, deliberate, but he quickly realized Rose wasn’t an easy opponent. Her strategy was sharp, her responses precise, and it wasn’t long before she had him on the defensive.Frank leaned back in his chair, studying the board with newfound respect. “You’re quite skilled. Your mother must have been an excellent teacher.”“She was,” Rose replied, her tone tinged with fondness. “She always said chess was like life. Every move matters, and you have to think several steps ahead.”Frank nodded, his expression thoughtful. “A wise woman. And what have you learned from this game?”Rose paused, a small smile playing on her lips. “That you’re cautious but adaptable. You test your opponent before committing to a strategy.”Frank raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed. “Well observed. You’ve got a sharp mind, Rose. A rare gift.”“Thank you,” Rose said, warmth creeping into her voice.As the game p

    Rose smiled, caught between the two. “I… I didn’t mean to start a competition!” she said, laughing lightly.Frank chuckled and placed a hand on Anne’s shoulder. “It’s not a competition, dear,” he said softly, his voice carrying a reassuring note. “Let her call us whatever she feels comfortable with.”Anne smiled, the playful edge fading. “Well, as long as she knows I’m the most important one,” she said with a wink.Julian laughed, crossing his arms and leaning back casually. “I’ll tell you what Rose, in order to soften the situation. It would be best if you call mom ‘Grandma’ and father ‘Grandfather,’ Deal?”Rose laughed, feeling the warmth of their banter. “Deal!” she said, her heart lightened by the playful atmosphere. She totally forgot that she felt stiffened up earlier.“Well,” she said, giving Anne a quick hug, “I’ll call you Grandma, if you prefer that. I just... I think it slipped out. It feels right.”Anne’s face softened, her smile returning. “Of course, darling. I suppose

    *********The grandeur of the Anderson Ancestral home was as breathtaking as ever, with its ornate architecture and sprawling gardens. Though Rose had visited before, this time felt different. It wasn’t a casual visit—it was her escape, her refuge after the chaos at the Gray mansion.Julian guided her inside, where Frank and Anne Anderson awaited in the living room. Despite the familiarity, Rose still felt a twinge of hesitation as she approached them.“Rose, my darling,” Anne said warmly, pulling her into a gentle hug. Her soft hair brushed against Rose’s cheek as she held her close. “I’ve been worried about you. I’m so glad you’re here now.”“Thank you, Grandma,” Rose replied, her voice steady though her heart fluttered at the kindness."My goodness, how on earth did you end up in this state? How dare William Gray let his incompetent fool do this to my precious child? Does he have a death wish?" Anne fumed, her voice trembling with rage. Though most of the wounds were finally heali
