"No sir. This is not a joke," Rose said firmly as she met his gaze without flinching. Even though he was a bit terrifying she was able to maintain her calm demeanor.

"Like I said earlier, I am Roseline Gray, the daughter of Ruby Walker. And I can assure you, I came here on my own accord." Her voice was calm and steady.

"What?" Old Madam's reaction was a stark contrast to what Rose had expected, and it was clear that her words had taken the elderly woman by surprise.

Rose turned her attention to the old lady and studied her properly. Old Madam, on the other hand, was the epitome of grace and elegance. Her gray hair was tied in a tight bun, but her posture was still straight.

If Old Anderson demeanor and stature exuded power and experience, the old lady beside him possessed grace and refinement. Despite the fact that both of them had white hair due to their age, they appeared quite different in terms of the energy and aura they emitted.

"Are you sure of what you are saying?” Old Ander

    "I feel left out, like my presence isn't noticed!" Old Anderson complained."Your intimidating look on your face and presence scares her to approach you." Old madam retorted."Dear, how can you push the blame only on me. We both agreed before we came here to be intimidating to whoever the person was. Now that you are sure that she is really Ruby's daughter, you want to blame me for reacting that way.” Old Anderson raised his brow at his wife who scoffed at him." We did agree to do something like that but you were too much. What if the poor girl had been too intimidated by you?” Old Madam argued back.Rose just stared speechlessly between the two people. First of all, Old Anderson's expression had completely changed from the menacing look he had earlier. " Um….. I'm sorry for interrupting your conversation but I don't think you should argue with each other. Besides, I understand why Patriarch Anderson did that.” After much deliberation, she decided to interfere in the matter.“Child,

    After Anthony left, Rose kept staring at the people in front her, her gaze wasn't Frank and Anne because she had just met them. Instead she was more focused on the two other elders in the room. Her eyes looked very vigilant as she scanned them on their seats. She hadn't taken notice of both Nicholas and Leo because they were sitting in a different place. Just as she was busy scanning them, Julian was also sizing Rose who had a calm and blank expression on her face as she stared back at him while his wife, Karen, had a shocked and surprised expression on her face. Julian couldn’t deny the fact that he wasn't shocked by the expression that was on Rose's face. He was expecting her to act scared when she saw him but instead she was staring at him hard with her expressionless face. She didn't look scared and looked like she could see through him. He continued to stare at her trying to see how long she could continue to stare at him. On the other hand, Rose kept staring at Julian, she w

    It wasn't like he was new to a situation like this but he felt like her attitude was too familiar. Ruby was also like that in the past when she was alive. Honestly, his relationship with Ruby didn't start off nicely. Both him and Ruby used to hate and argue with each other. They were just like typical cousins that don't agree with each other. The reason why they were like that was because he personally didn't like how cunning and evil Ruby was. She always had an expression on her face like they were close whenever the elders were around but after they left, her expression changed to her usual evil woman. They have been on this misunderstanding until eventually became friends and Karen was the reason why they became friends. Rose right now reminded him of Ruby. ‘It seems like she really is her mother's daughter.’ Julian thought as he looked at Rose. “Hello, Mr. Anderson and Mrs. Anderson.” Rose shortly greeted the two of them formally with her same blank expression. There was no rel

    “Finally, I was wondering when you would turn your attention here and recognize me. It seems like you sensed my gaze on you, Little Rose.” Leo replied, still wearing the grin on his face. "Hm. It's not my fault I find it hard to recognize your presence.” Rose coldly retorted back. "What are you doing here?” She asked him. "Why are you slow to figure it out? I should be asking you since I'm at my grandparents house.” Leo replied with a raised brow at Rose. Grandparents? Rose creased her brow at him before she could connect the dots. She didn't remember Leo's surname properly and that was why she had asked what he was doing here. Even if she remembered his surname, she didn't expect him to be related to this Anderson family. However, if he was at his grandparents place then that means he was Leo Anderson. ‘How pathetic of you, Roseline. You had one Anderson family member right in front of you for the past one week and you failed to recognize him. I could have used him to make a qu

    “That is enough from you, Leo. You can continue your argument after we are done here." Nicholas suddenly spoke and interrupted them. He didn't know how long they would continue this argument but he was sure neither of them would want to lose. “ It's a good thing that you are already acquainted with one of my grandsons.” Old Madam said with a smile on her face. She was glad to see that Rose and Leo are close to the point they even argue with each other. "I heard that you've also met Nicholas as well." She added, making Rose raise her brow at him. " I'm sorry, who?” She asked. "I doubt that she would recognize me since we only met once." Nicholas suddenly remarked. Rose turned to look at him and instantly sized him up. He was right, she felt he was familiar but had no clue where she had seen him. It wasn't like she was paying too much attention to their faces the day she saw him, all she knew was that he gave off a familiar vibe. “You can tell just by her expression." Nicholas add

    Rose shook her head again, "No, I figured out where you were on my own. My father is unaware that I am here at all since he is away on a business trip.” She told them. If William knew that she planned to come here, he would definitely have her bundled and send her back to where she came from, which was abroad. “If your father isn't aware of you coming here, then how come you are here? Why did you come here?" Julian asked with a small frown. “I was told to come here." She curtly told him. “Child, I think you should explain properly to us. We are confused by what you are saying. Who asked you to come here?" Frank was the one who spoke. "My mother was the one who asked me to come here when I got a message she left for me before she died. I didn't have plans to come here because I was told only family members are allowed to enter the mansion, so I visited the Anderson residence for the entire week but I wasn't allowed in. I also went there today but the security guard told me that the

    “There are a lot of reasons why your mother left that message for you. And that is why we were also planning to approach the Gray family before you came. We would have done this a few years ago but your father had sneakingly sent you away out of our reach. There are many things you need to know but it all depends whether you are ready or not." Frank commented, making Rose turn to look at him. “Father, I don't think we should reveal all of this kind of thing to her yet. We just only met her.” Karen suddenly spoke. The four of them knew exactly what Frank was talking about but she felt it was too sudden. "Yes, I agree with Karen, darling. Rose still needs to adapt to us first before we tell things like that.” Anne added in support with Karen. “But, mother, it's better to let the girl know now than later. It's true we only met her now but it would be to explain a few things to her so that she can know where she stands. Most of what we are going to tell her is going to ruin the image o

    Rose remained silent for a minute as she just looked at Frank who was also looking back at her. “No. I can't say that I fully trust everyone here, since trusting someone isn't an easy thing. However, I do trust my mother because she has a lot of trust in you. That was why she left the message about you to me. My mother would never lead me to a place that would swallow me up." She finally replied, giving her best and honest response to Frank. Frank slowly nodded his head, satisfied at her response. He would find it hard to believe if she said she trusted them because they just met. However, her response just let him know that she really wasn't an ordinary person. Only someone who had had their trust betrayed before would know that trusting someone isn't an easy thing. “Good, good, you're just like your mother. She had similar thoughts to you when she was alive. Despite the fact that I was her uncle, she still made me earn her trust before she could fully trust me and you just remi

    “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.

    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
