“What do you mean by that? I didn’t ask you to pick a car more expensive than the one you have already picked.” William cut Rose off before she could finish what she was saying. He was really trying his hardest to not really lash out at Rose. “But I thought you said you have a problem with the car? If that isn’t what you are talking about then why are you talking like that, father?” Rose asked, while raising her brow even though he can’t see her. “Rose, don't you think that car is too expensive for you? I mean what exactly do you want to use the car for?” William asked. Wondering why and what she wanted you to use such an expensive car for when she has no place to go. “First of all, the car isn’t expensive father and you asked me to pick whatever car I want , which I did. This car is the car gift you promised me. And for what the car is for, it is obviously for me to take to school and anywhere else I want to go.” Rose replied. “Rose, you already have a car you share with your
William smiled. Of course she was a fool and an idiot so she would listen to him no matter what he said. “Yes, Rose. your daddy is just worried about your safety. So don’t worry, like I said when I come back I will personally look for a suitable driver for you. For now, just keep managing with your sis-” “It is you who shouldn’t worry, father. I have already found a solution to that problem.” Rose didn’t wait for William to finish what he was saying before she cut him off. William raised a brow when he heard she had a solution to the problem. “What are you talking about?” He couldn’t help but ask. “I have experience on how to drive a car, so I can drive myself.” She told him, without delay. She wasn’t lying because in her past she learnt how to drive before she came back to the country. Even though it was different and the time she came back to the country was different, she still has the experience and knowledge about it. “You say what? Where did you learn how to drive withou
“Are you mad at me now, father?” Rose asked innocently, but it was that she was trying to taunt William while acting unharmful about it. ‘Are you kidding me?! I want to strangle you right now, you this crazy witch child!’ William yelled internally. Of course, he can't say that out loud to Rose, even though he knew she had purposely played him today. "I'm not really mad at you, Rose. But you should have let me know before doing all that.” William finally replied after calming down a bit. He needed to maintain his image and reputation where he is right now and he was thankful the client he wanted to meet wasn't in the room with him. “Father, I just thought of making things faster and arranged everything before you came back. I would have asked step mother for help on this matter but she has gone out and I rarely see both her and Sophia at home." Rose replied, stylishly telling William that Beatrice could be blamed a bit in this case since she wasn't around. ‘That brainless woma
“If you want another car, then just take another car that we have in the mansion.” William finally replied after being quiet for a while. “Father, the cars in the mansion are quite outdated and they shouldn’t be seen with the eldest daughter of the Gray family. Don’t you agree with me? I’m just looking out for our family reputation.” Rose remarked. She knew what Wiliam values so she was going to use it against him to get what she wanted William, who was oblivious to what Rose was thinking actually thought that she was making sense with what she was saying. If she is using some old and outdated cars, the people might question the way Rose is being treated at home. Although she claimed that the cars in the garage were outdated, but he had bought them with a significant amount of money. “What exactly do you want now?” William asked, his urge to keep Rose to his side when the Anderson family comes was not letting him take proper actions with the way she was exploiting him. Normally
“I didn't say that I won't buy this car, so calm down. I'm going to buy two cars in this store today." Rose waved her hand and told Doris what she meant. “Oh.” Doris' mouth formed an O shape when she heard her. Two cars? This would be a huge boost in her work sales record. She might even receive a promotion if Rose truly bought two cars like she claimed. “In that case, do you have a car in mind that you want to buy again then?” She asked Rose. It was the same moment Luthor also stepped out of the car, making Rose turn her attention to him. “Brother Luthor, which car did you think we should take? We have walked past a few cars so did anyone catch your attention?" She asked Luthor who raised his brow at her. “Why are you asking me that? Aren't you the one who wants to buy it, pick whichever you want." Luthor replied. Rose folded her arm in front of her chest as she looked at Luthor. “But you're the one who would be driving the car. Besides, I brought you here to pick a car s
“That is the performance of the car. The interior of the car is a sight to behold. From the Mulliner tread plates to the illustration of the car emblazoned on the Grand Black Veneer fascia. The other captivating designs of the car is the sumptuous leather, genuine wood trim, and real metal accents line the Flying Spur's interior. In the front or back, there's plenty of space for adults to stretch out and enjoy the luxurious environs. Bentley's interior designers managed to preserve the brand's prim and proper styling while incorporating modern tech features. A remote touchscreen controller mounted to the rear of the center console allows rear-seat riders to adjust certain things without asking the driver for assistance. For instance, you can use it to open and close the window shades, adjust the cabin climate, and activate the rear-seat massagers.” Doris took a deep breath after she was done giving them the briefing of the car. Although Rose asked for a short briefing, she went ahead
Just as Luthor was still sitting in the car waiting for Doris to come back since he had no response to retort back to Rose, who was still standing a few meters away from the car. “Excuse me, what are you two doing here….?” Suddenly they heard a voice which made them turn to the direction and saw the manager and Boyd walking towards where both Rose and Luthor were. Rose raised a brow as she patiently waited for the Manager to get where they were before she said or give him a response to his question. The manager recognized Rose instantly when he saw her, since she was the one who had almost cost him to lose a potential client and customer. Earlier, after pleading to Lara and promising to kick both Rose and Luthor out after she leaves, he was about to enter his office when his secretary stopped and told him that Doris had come to request for the documents of one of the expensive cars. At the same moment, one of the staff members also came to his office and reported to him that th
“Should I say that you are stupid? No, I'm sure it is a matter of blindness on your part to make you fail to realize that these two are just fraud here? Just take a look at them.even though the little one is neatly dressed, what made you think that they can purchase one of our most luxurious cars? I will definitely make a complaint of your reckless behavior at our next meeting and make sure that you are punished accordingly.” He said furiously and shifted his attention to Boyd who had been silent the whole time. “You too will also receive a query as well because you both were the ones that welcomed them into the store and they had nearly cost us to lose potential customers today.” He told him. “Sir, that is not what happened.” Boyd tried to explain as well but Manager Cord had already turned to look away from him. “I think you calm down for a moment here, Mr. Manager.” Luthor remarked. Despite already hearing the name of the manager, he couldn't bring herself to address him the
“Yes, that's true, I've only seen Sophia around but not your oldest first daughter.” Mrs. Will interfered when she too heard Mrs. Phillip’s question. She planned to ask Beatrice because she had been looking around for Rose but couldn't find her. “Thank God, I thought I was the only one who missed seeing that cute loveable child. Where did you say she is, Beatrice?” Mrs. Phillip asked again despite knowing that Beatrice hadn't replied yet. Beatrice smiled at both Mrs. Phillip and Mrs. Will. ‘You crazy two bitches. I'm already prepared for you.’ she thought to herself. She was aware that these two women were nothing but trouble, that's why she prepared herself for them since she had no choice but to invite them to her little party. “Oh, well, my poor Rose has a fever and is staying in bed. I told her not to come outside because of the cold weather and her fever could worsen.” She calmly answered. “Oh dear, is Rose okay? Why didn't you let us know beforehand." Mrs. Phillip worriedly
Once, Rose had believed that Beatrice cared for her. She had believed in her kindness, thinking that maybe Beatrice did see her as a daughter. But now, she saw through the facade. Beatrice wasn’t protecting her. She was merely covering for her son, brushing away his actions as though they were minor inconveniences. Each word of Beatrice’s “comfort” felt like salt in a wound. Still in pain and unable to walk comfortably, Rose was confined to her bed. Though Rose's leg had healed more than she portrayed it to everyone, it was also part of her plan. During her confinement, Rose constantly talked with Nicholas and gave him directions on the things she wanted him to do with the security video she asked him to find. Although he could fairly guess what his little cousin was up to, Nicholas was still confused about how she was planning all this in her little head. Yet, despite her stepdaughter’s state, Beatrice's grand birthday party carried on as planned. The house bustled with preparatio
The next day, Rose received a call from Theresa in the morning, telling her to visit the store because of something important. Rose actually thought it was something that wouldn't take time so she lied to Beatrice who was at home that she was going to her friend's place. As expected, Beatrice didn't probe too much and let Rose leave. It was only when Rose got there did she realize that it was going to take a while for her to finish up with the meeting so she tried to rush things up. Nancy sent a text message to Rose when she was having a meeting with Theresa, in order to inform Rose that she would soon be arriving at the location of the first house on Rose's list. Nancy wanted Rose to be present personally, so that she can be able to negotiate some of the terms with the real estate agent. Rose would have loved to attend the meeting but it was impossible since her meeting with Theresa wasn't over yet. As a result, she had no other choice but to text Nancy and told her to carry on w
“That is an excellent choice. I will give the estate manager incharge of these properties a call tonight and we can meet at the location to sign the complete deal.” Nancy suggested. Rose easily agrees to Nancy's term since she found the suggestion acceptable.“That's fine by me. I'll meet you there tomorrow morning.” “Yes, but that is not the case here. I don't think it's wise for you to go out again tomorrow with how you look." She added as she looked at Rose who tilted her head to the side. There is no way she wanted Rose to walk around with that face again tomorrow. Today was a mistake because she didn't know what happened to her.“Are you worried about me, big sister? Don't because I am fine. Besides, I need to handle this before it gets late because I will be needing it soon." Rose replied, giving a reassuring smile at Nancy.“I know but I still think you should get better first, huh? You have to care about yourself more." Nancy argued, despite knowing that Rose was right. Howe
When they arrived at their destination, Rose told Luthor to wait for her while she headed to the restaurant entrance.Immediately she entered the restaurant, she sighted Nancy sitting at one of the tables by the window so she made her way there while trying to control herself from limping too much.“I'm sorry for making you wait for me, sister Nancy." Rose said as she stood in front of the table.“Oh dear, Rose what happened to your face?” Nancy looked up when she heard Rose's voice ready to greet her with a smile but she was shocked when she saw Rose.Rose gave Nancy a smile before taking her seat in front of her. “It's nothing serious, I just got into a little accident but I'm healing now." She replied.“You should have told me about this, I wouldn't have accepted us to meet today. Are you sure you're okay coming out like this?" Nancy worriedly asked. “I am, don't worry about me." Rose nodded her head at Nancy but it wasn't enough to make the woman stop worrying about her. She was
………..The next day, Rose was unable to go to school because of injuries. After everyone had left the mansion, Rose picked up her phone and called Luthor to get the car ready for her.Well, the Gray family thought she would be unable to go out but that wasn't true, she had got appointments with Nancy who was already waiting for her at the restaurant they were supposed to meet.A few minutes later, Rose stepped out of her building fully dressed in all black clothes and backpack. Luthor, who was already waiting for her, stepped out of the driver seat and opened the back seat door for her.“Are you sure you should be going out in that condition?" Luthor asked as he drove out of the mansion. Earlier he had watched Rose limp into the car when he hadn't taken his eyes off her. Even as she sat in the car pressing her cellphone his gaze constantly fell on her bruised face and leg.Rose looked up from her phone and glanced at the driver seat. “Yes. It's important. And I told you not to have th
Beatrice was caught off guard when she heard Rose. How was she supposed to reply to that?Seeing her mother in a difficult situation to come up with something to say, Sophia tugged Rose's hand. “Sister, don't think like that. Ever since you left and mom found out that Victor chased you out, mom scolded him really really badly on your behalf." As a sweet-talker, Sophia expected her tricks to work on Roes who smiled at her and pretended like she never did anything earlier. It almost looked like she was a robot that was being rubbotted.Ah, yes. But it seems like my scolding isn't enough for him. I will make sure to seek punishment for him from your father when he comes back. My darling, I'm sorry for coming so late." Beatrice took the opportunity crested by her daughter and came up with something quickly.Rose smiled upon seeing how mother and daughter keep trying to come up with an excuse to cover for each other. Not wanting to drag on seeing their faces, Rose lied that she wanted to
Rose, who was busy taking her nap, frowned when she felt the presence in her room. ‘I should have locked that door earlier.’“Sister, wake up. It's me, Sophia." Sophia persistently shook Rose's body, making her groan in pain at how tight Sophia's grip was.“It hurts, Sophia.” Rose mumbled as she gently pushed Sophia's hand away and sat up on the bed." Oh, I'm sorry. Mother and I were just so excited and happy when we heard that you're back." Sophia quickly apologized as she sat beside Rose on the bed."Roseline, dear. Why did you do that? Do you have any idea how worried I was when I heard that you left the mansion? Your father got angry at me because of that.” Beatrice suddenly ranted as she looked at Rose with a fake worried expression on her face.“Mother, I didn't leave just like that. I had no choice but to listen to Victor when he chased me out because I didn't want him to get more angry with me." Rose replied as she looked up at Beatrice. Honestly, she wasn't really in the moo
Just as she was about to go inside, the gates opened and another car which belonged to Beatrice drove in as well, making Sophia pause.“Sophia, what are you doing outside still dressed like that?"Beatrice questioned as she stepped out of the car along with Victor. She had a scowl on her face when she saw her daughter still dressed the same way she had dressed when she left this morning.“I just got back home now." Sophia casually replied to her mother. “And before you scold me, I went out with my friends after school so I was late because of that." She quickly added, knowing what her mother might say next.“Mom, stop looking at Sophia like that. She is old enough to hang out with her friends, isn't she?” Victor suddenly Interjected while winking at his sister who smiled at him for his help.“I know, I just want you to be careful sometimes." As expected, Beatrice couldn't win against her children and softened her gaze at Sophia.“Mommy, did you get that picture of the dress I sent to y
