Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress Chapter 318
“I'm Lara Jim. The head maid and female butler of this house. Please feel free to call me Lara.” Lara introduced herself to Rose with a smile. She didn't know why but she felt a feeling of liking towards Rose the moment she saw her. Maybe it's because of the fact that she is the only human of the opposite sex Alex has brought into this house. She cared less about her relationship to Alex but she liked Rose and the way she carried herself.“Mrs. Lara. I will call you that if you don't mind instead." Rose replied. There is no way she would call a woman old enough to be her mother by name. This is her house so she can't disrespect the people living here. Moreso, Lara has a similar vibe to her new favorite Aunty Karen.Lara smiled widened. The bar of her likeness for Rose just rose up because of her words. ‘What a respectful child. Her mother should be proud of her.’ “Alright then, I'll leave you alone to rest for a while. Would you like me to get dinner?" Lara asked.Rose shook her. Sh

Lara sighed and shook her head at her Young master. Though he rarely visited this place, she has known Alex for a long time before she started working here as the head maid here. “If you don't mind me asking, Young master. What happened to the young miss you brought? She looked so badly injured on face and hand.” Lara asked worriedly. Though she didn't say it out, she knew those injuries were the cause of being beaten up. She couldn't help but wonder who would do something like that to a young girl.“I haven't found out yet. Just do your own job and worry about nothing else.” Alex replied coldly. He almost forgot about the wounds on her face not until Lara mentioned it again."Oh my! I nearly forgot.” Lara suddenly exclaimed, making Alex crease his brow at her." What is it this time?” He could feel his patience running out with the way Lara was trying to disturb him. This is the reason why he didn't like coming here." It's late, I almost forgot to take my medication which is bad. H

Rose wasn’t sure how to respond. It wasn’t what she had expected him to say. But there was a certain weight to his words, as if he, too, was contemplating something much deeper.“Yes,” she agreed. "It is." She hesitated, then added, "But it feels like you don’t get to enjoy this kind of peace very often."He turned slightly, before replying. "Not often, no.”Rose didn't know if it was her eyes but she saw the corner of his lips curled up into a faint smile and when she blinked, it was gone so she concluded that it was her eyes. “Are you comfortable with this room?" He asked and Rose nodded her head as she looked up at him. Deep down she hated the fact that she had to strain her neck before she could look at anyone. ‘All the men and people I know are so tall. What do they eat?’ She complained bitterly. Even Victor was taller than despite her being the oldest. It's frustrating at times to think about it because Sandra and Kehlani are a head taller than her as well.‘I have to focus on

Alex raised his head with a scowl on his face but Rose ignored him and started applying the ointment to wherever she felt pain. Thanks to him kneeling in front of her, she can't stand up to check what she was doing in the mirror.‘Just how uncomfortable.’ she grumbled to herself and gritted her teeth to endure the pain.“Hey!" Rose suddenly yelled when the ointment was yanked out of her hand roughly by Alex. “What is your problem, Mister?" She asked with a frown on her face as she glared at him.“You're doing it all wrong." Alex as usual coolly replied." It's none of your concern, give it back.” Rose angrily retorted back but suddenly she received a cold glare from Alex. Honestly speaking, the glare was scary but who was Rose? She gulped her dear and stared right back at him.“It's my concern because I brought you to my house so you are my responsibility. I will do it for you.” Alex remarked in a stern and firm tone leaving no room for arguments.However, Rose was not the type to ba

“It’s time for you to leave, Mr. King. Thank you very much for taking me to the hospital and bringing me here, but as you can see, I'm a young and growing child so I need to rest now. And I'm sure you also have things to do as well.” Rose said in the most polite way she could think of and gestured to him to leave the room.Alex's gaze darkened as he looked at her. “Are you kicking me out?" He questioned. No one dares to kick him out of anywhere, much less in his house. But, this little girl has the audacity to do so without blinking or thinking of the consequences of her action."I am in the most polite and respectful way.” Rose didn't bother to lie and gave him a forced smile. The sooner she gets rid of him, the sooner she could rest.She sighed again when she saw that he was just standing there and not moving. Without saying anything, she walked back to him. " Excuse me.” Rose said as she grabbed his large hand and started pulling towards the door. "Goodnight.” Rose waved at him be

“Why did you fight with your sister and even send her out of the house? Do you have any idea what you've done-" “That's enough, William. Our son came back home after a very long time to celebrate my birthday, you should welcome him with warmth and not that annoying look you have. It's not like he has done anything wrong. If Rose hadn't annoyed him, he wouldn't have fought with her." Before William could finish his sentence, Beatrice suddenly cut him off. She didn't like the fact that he was scolding her son because of Rose." Yeah. Mom is right, dad. That crazy bitch you call daughter insulted him and said I don't look like the Grays. You don't expect to let her off just like that.” Victor added to support his mother and Sophia also nodded as well." So because of that you beat her up and sent her out of the mansion late at night?” William asked."Yes. That is an insult to me and this family. I am the only heir and I will assume the position of the head of this family after you die,

******** Normally, people are supposed to fall asleep immediately when they lay on a soft, feathery bed like this one, however, Rose was different. It's been three hours now and her eyes refused to close no matter how she tried to. This was the same thing that happened to her the first time she visited the Anderson family mansion. “Now, I understand my problem. I can't sleep in a place I'm not used to." Rose mumbled. In her past life, she always stayed locked up in the Gray mansion and never socialized. She never had sleepovers with friends in the past so it's normal for to feel uncomfortable in a place she isn't used to. It was the same thing that happened at the Anderson family mansion but she actually thought it was because she was nervous then. After turning around a few more times, Rose stood up from the bed and glanced at the clock and saw that it was eleven o'clock, almost midnight. She ventured downstairs, the need for water drawing her out of her room. The house, as grand

“Water. I'm thirsty." She replied.Alex gave a small nod, an acknowledgment that was both curt and yet oddly reassuring.“The kitchen is over there. You should rest soon,” He said, his voice even, with no trace of the previous intensity.Rose blinked, slightly caught off guard by the simple, almost mundane comment. “Right,” she replied softly. She continued down the stairs, her steps cautious, as if not wanting to disturb the fragile peace between them.As she reached the bottom of the staircase, Alex had already returned to his phone call. His attention had shifted away from her, and she felt herself breathe easier now that the moment had passed. Yet the weight of his presence still lingered in the back of her mind, like a faint echo that wouldn’t quite fade.Rose moved toward the kitchen, where a tall, glass pitcher of water sat on the counter. Pouring herself a glass, she leaned against the marble countertop, her thoughts swirling. Why had she felt such tension just from one glanc

“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
Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress Chapter 354
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
