" You have nothing to be sorry for. And I appreciate you thinking that I'm beautiful.” Rose finally stopped laughing and said to Nancy who blushed in embarrassment. " I only told the truth and everyone who sees you thinks the same too.” Nancy retorted. “Thank you and you're also beautiful, sister Nancy. I would love to be on my way now." Rose remarked as she stood up from the couch and made her way to the exit. Nancy quickly jumped to her feet and called out to Rose who had almost reached the door. “Rose, wait. Let me escort you out." Rose turned around and raised her hand to stop her. “There is no need for that. Though I appreciate the offer, you must have other things and tasks to complete, so I can take care of myself. Please give me a call tomorrow when the card is prepared.” Rose politely rejected her offer to walk her out of the room. “I will." Nancy nodded her head. “Oh well, see you tomorrow." Rose waved at her before opening the door and walked out of the room. The mo
On the other hand, the man was stunned speechless to see a peerless beauty in front of him. His dimmed eyes began to glow. In all of his years of being with women, he had never seen such a pure beauty, who was obviously not wearing any makeup. She is totally different and beautiful than all the A-list celebrities he had slept with. “Wow, what is a beautiful young lady like you doing here? I don't think we have met before, but I'm already taking a liking to you. Are you here alone?” The man quickly changed his tone into a softer one as he reached his hand to grab Rose's hand but she quickly avoided his touch. “Ha, I see you're a bit wary because I haven't introduced myself, beautiful lady. “My name is Rey Mason, the general manager of HYL entertainment industry. I'm sure you've heard a lot about me?” The man introduced himself, stumbling a bit. He was obviously drunk and wasted. Rose's frown deepened as she watched him. “I have never heard of that name before, excuse me.” She said a
The two men glanced at each other before turning to look at Alex who averted his gaze from them, indicating that he had nothing to say to it. Already understanding what his gesture meant even though they were surprised because this was the first Alex was not refusing something like this. “Akright, you can stay here for a bit until your friends outside take their leave.” The first man who had spoken earlier said on behalf of himself and his other two friends. " Thank you so much.” Rose bowed her head again to thank them. Meanwhile outside the room, where Rey and his men were standing in the hallway while looking for Rose. They all knew that Rose had entered one of the rooms here but it was hard for them to barge into the room where the guests were eating so they decided to wait patiently outside until she came out by herself or maybe she would eventually be kicked out . However, just at the same moment, the elevator door opened and a young handsome man gently stepped out of the ele
“And here comes the one that is always late among us." The playful looking man remarked as he got up from his seat and walked towards Rose who was still on the floor. He stretched his hand towards her to help her up. Nicholas still had frowns on his face, his gaze was glued on Rose wondering why and what a girl was doing here. “Are you okay?" The playful looking man asked after Rose managed to take his hand while using her other hand to rub her head which the door had hit. “I think I'm fine. Thank you Mister." Rose slowly replied and got up to her feet. Just as she thought, she was still short just by standing next to the man. “Nicholas, you came late today? What is the cause of your lateness today?" The second man asked as he glanced at their fourth friends who were still standing by the door with his gaze on Rose. “I had something to take care of.” Nicholas replied and finally looked away from Rose and glanced at his friend. " You're alway have something to do and keep us wa
Rose noticed their expression but thought that they might have a problem with Rey Mason. She began to tell them everything that happened from the moment she entered the restaurant and how she went to the restroom because she was uncomfortable and how she was on way out and unfortunately encountered Rey. “That damn prick doesn't know when to stop does he." Christopher was the first person to speak after Rose was done explaining. “A beauty like you is expected to draw those kinds of jerks to you. You should have done more than just kicking him." Edwards also added. The reason why they were all agitated was because of the fact that there were a lot of disgusting rumors surrounding Rey Mason and all the dirty things he usually does. For someone like that to try and use force on a little girl like Rose was enough to make them lose their temper but they all manage to control themselves. “Anyways, since you're here to have lunch, you can eat with us. We were waiting for him before we or
"What a beautiful and cute young girl she is.” Christopher couldn't help but remark in admiration after Rose closed the door. The moment he saw Rose, was the same moment he liked her and wanted to dote on a beautiful young girl like her. She was the little sister he never got the chance to have. "You should see how scheming and cunning she is.” Alex suddenly remarks, recalling his two recent encounters with her at the jewelry shop and at the boutique. However, his remark suddenly made his three friends turn towards him with a questioning gaze. “What do you mean by that, Alex?" Nicholas asked. “Have you met her before? Do you know her?" Edward also added. “I won't say we knew each other. After all, she was my girlfriend for five minutes." Alex calmly replied. “What?! Have you lost your mind completely? How can you choose a beautiful and innocent young girl like her as your girlfriend?.....wait! Did I hear correctly just now?!" Christopher, who was ready to lash out at Alex, sudde
Nicholas was the second person in that group that rarely talked that much apart from Alex. “HYL entertainment is very good entertainment in the industry but I know how to handle and take care of Rey Mason.” Christopher slowly nodded his head, already thinking of how to handle Rey Mason. Meanwhile, after Rose walked out the restaurant and entered the car. She told the driver to take her home since she was done with all she came outside to do today. Suddenly her cellphone rang again and she raised a brow when she saw the name of the caller ID. “Hello, Aunty." She answered the call. “Young Miss, where are you?" Paige's worried voice rang out from the other line of the phone. “Aunty, I'm on my way home already. Is there any problem?" Rose asked when she heard Paige's worried voice. “Nothing, I was just growing worried since you haven't arrived back home. And it's almost getting to evening time." Paige replied, calming down a bit when she heard that Rose was already on her way home
A few minutes later, Rose walked towards the dining table where she met Beatrice, Sophia and William sitting on their respective seats. As usual she walked towards the seat at the end of the table opposite William who was sitting at the head to table. The three stare at Rose with different thoughts running in their mind as they watch her walk towards them with a calm and collected demeanor and take her seat.“Good evening, father." Rose greeted William after sitting down. William nodded his head without saying anything. Beatrice quickly gestured to the maids to serve the food and they all left, leaving the four people alone.No one said anything to each other and started digging into their food. Rose was the only one who wasn't eating like the others and it was because her stomach was still filled with the food she had eaten with Alex and his friends.“So, Rose. How was the exam you took today?” William asked, breaking the silence at the dining tables."It went well. I thought my s
