Rosaline was not surprised at that.

“That’s understandable. Leena’s brothers have always treated us well. You did not tell him our reason behind this, did you?”

“Of course not. I said I wanted to buy farmland and grow crops for the hotel.”

“Did he believe you?”

“Yeah. Brother liked the idea, though not the thought of me doing it personally. I said I’ll hire professionals for that.”

“It’s good as long as he bought it. Besides, building a farmhouse and growing crops is a good idea.”

“You realize neither of us knows how to do that or even cook.”

“I am aware. I was not saying we should do it. Just that it was a good idea.”

“Shall we complete the formalities the day after tomorrow?”

“What about that plot by the lake?”

“Are you still stuck on that?” Tessa shook her head.

“Yes. I told you I fell in love with it at first sight. We have spent a year negotiating with all of them. I don’t want to miss out on that.”

“Then what should we do?”

“Let’s check all our accounts. I think we are probably

  • Finding my way to you   Chapter 104 - Party

    On the other hand, William was suffering at the party.His mother had insisted on throwing a party for the bride-to-be. As a host, naturally, he could not skip it. Tristen, on the other hand, managed to evade it. His mother, as always, had called her friends and their children that she liked or approved. There were none of his, Ria’s, or Tristen’s friends. Ria was diplomatic and had a friendly relationship with most of them, as they would run into each other from time to time.Despite not being close to any of them, she enjoyed the party all the same, or at least she looked that way.Tristen knew he would not like it and did not want to endure it. He cleverly called and said he had a run-in with his teachers and could not refuse their invitation.He had sounded so sorry that Anabella would frequently lament on his behalf.William and Ria, who knew he had deliberately invited his teacher on the pretext of Ria’s wedding to avoid this party, tactfully kept mum.They had to admire thei

  • Finding my way to you   Chapter 105 - Drugged

    William had never gotten wasted before.He had a decent alcohol tolerance. Besides, he disliked socializing. He never had to drink a lot.He had never taken any drugs either.But it did not take a genius to figure out that he had ingested an aphrodisiac. He could not be sure precisely what drugs he had ingested, but the burning and the itchy feeling made things evident.Images of Rosaline filled his head. Her blushing face, her moans, her red and glistening lips after he kissed her, her smooth skin littered with hickeys.He quickly turned on all the lights in the room, turned the AC to 15 degrees, and dashed to the bathroom.But someone had cut off the water supply and broken the lock in the bathroom.He tried his phone, but the signal seemed to be blocked.He loudly cursed and quickly enabled all three functions on his ring.Thankfully, all of them seemed to work, although he did not get to check them clearly as he was already quite dizzy.He consoled himself that Rosaline and Alber

    William wondered if Supriya was sick in the head.He felt cheap when she said she loved him. He remembered once Ria had been upset because someone had given her a love letter.She was upset because that person was a bastard who used to flirt with everyone.Receiving a love letter from him was a disgrace to her, even though she had declined it without being polite. William had not understood her logic back then, but now, it made sense.He felt humiliated when Supriya said she loved him.William did not want to be loved by the likes of her. He only ever wanted Rosaline’s love.“And you had to drug me and lock me in for that. You must be so proud of yourself right about now.”He did not bother to conceal the contempt in his voice. It only triggered Supriya. “It doesn't matter anymore. You will be mine from tonight on.”“Really, and how might that be?” William tried to act nonchalant.But he was panicking inside. He was out of water. He felt parched, his body was burning inside out, a

    William thought that before he succumbed to the effects of drugs, he had to do something. With that in mind, he decided to continue with her play to drag for some more time.“They say birds of the feathers flock together. You and Tina are just the same. A few weeks back, she was hovering all over me. She even slandered Lina to break off our engagement. Just like you used Pete.”“It’s his fault for being your friend. Did he think I was in love with him? I needed someone to get input on you. And he made for a perfect bait.”“I always knew you were a bitch, never knew you were a slut. You slept with him for benefits.”“Are you jealous, Liam?” She laughed like a maniac.“But there’s no need. I have saved myself for you for tonight. I used to give Pete a concoction of hallucinogen and anesthesia, so he only thought we slept together.”William was surprised to hear that.But his surprise quickly vanished as Supriya started to walk toward him.“Besides, Liam, you can personally verify it to

  • Finding my way to you   Chapter 108 - Rescued

    Rosaline was about to sleep when her phone rang.She received a call from Liam and a message to track his live location.She was surprised for a moment as she could not think why Liam would call her. After thinking for a while, she picked it up anyway. She also clicked on the live location tracker to see the Brown family mansion on the GPS.Rosaline didn’t get a response despite calling Liam’s name several times. She was confused.‘What’s wrong with him?’ She wondered.‘Maybe he sent it to the wrong number. Yes, that must be the case.’Just when she was about to hang up, she heard a familiar voice asking someone to get out of his bedroom.Rosaline mused at that.‘Did he get jumped, so he called someone for help, hence the wrong number in haste. But why does he sound familiar?’She decided to listen and call Tristen if he was in trouble. Then another person joined the conference call, which surprised her even more.‘Albert, why is he on the call? How do they know each other?’Rosalin

    William felt itchy in his sleep.He wanted to scratch, but it hurt when he tried to move his hand. He tried to open his eyes but to no avail. He lay still and tried to focus.He could hear faint beeping and something dripping, but otherwise, it was quiet.The itchy feeling continued, but he could not move. He tried to open his eyes but failed.He wanted to speak, but he instinctively rejected the idea.He then calmed down and tried to remember what had happened. He recalled getting drugged, and he had cut himself to escape from Supriya. That made it harder to calm down.He tried to feel his body and sense if there was anything amiss, but apart from the itchiness, everything seemed normal. Although, he could not feel most of his body.Gradually, his consciousness began to fade again.On the other hand, Rosaline, Tessa, and Albert were still listening to the conversation on William’s side. They heard Tristen growling at the butler as he asked for the spare key. The butler refused and

    Rosaline’s heart went out to William when she saw him lying in the hospital bed - pale-faced, hooked with an IV line and wrapped with bandages.She closed the door of the private ward, pulled the curtains, and made her way to him.“Hey,” she slowly whispered.William was frowning in his sleep.She smoothed his furrowed brows and caressed his cheeks.He seemed uncomfortable, so she took a wet towel and gently wiped him clean.His face, neck, chest, and arms, without touching the bandaged part. The nurses did not seem to have cleaned him up.She did that the best she could without touching his wounds, disturbing or alarming him.Given what he had been through before he lost consciousness, he probably did not want to be touched.So, Rosaline wiped him without any skin-to-skin contact.William, in his subconscious, felt something smooth and cool brush his face and smoothen the wrinkles on his forehead. It felt familiar and calming, so he did not want to disturb it.He felt it leave him a

    Rosaline woke up to a warm embrace. She looked up to see William gazing at her.“You are awake,” She mumbled, hugged him, and went back to sleep.William was dumbfounded at her reaction.Before he could react, Rosaline woke up with a start and nearly knocked him out of bed.He was even more speechless.“I must admit you do take good care of patients,” He teased as he made himself comfortable on the bed, avoiding the fall.“Are you okay? Did I hurt you?” Rosaline ignored his sarcasm as she asked in concern.“I’m fine. You did not hurt me. Just startled me, that’s it,” William replied seriously.“I’m sorry. I was sitting by the bed. How did I get into your bed?”“That would be my doing. You were sleeping so uncomfortably.” “Why would you do that? You have wounds all over your body. What if they had torn? You could have just woken me up.”“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”“Why did you remove your bandages?”Rosaline became alarmed as she noticed the visible bandages on his neck were gone.“I wan

    William lay on the bed with Rosaline in his arms and little Parth in his crib on the side. “Lexi?” William whispered. “Hmm?” Rosaline hummed in his neck. “Falling in love with you is the greatest achievement of my life. Thank you, darling. I never knew I could be so happy that my heart feels like it’ll overflow.” William said emotionally. “Don’t steal my line. That’s how I feel. With you by my side, I feel invincible.” Rosaline murmured. “I love you so much.” He said hoarsely. “I know. I would argue I love you more, but we both know that’s not true.” Rosaline giggled, peppering kisses on his neck. “Don’t do that!” William sighed. She teased, “Do what?” “Our son is here. We can’t do anything, so don’t provoke me. Besides, you have not healed yet.” William answered. “Teasing you is no fun. You have better control than me.” Rosaline complained. “You should be happy about that. I want you more than you want me.” William teased. “I have noticed our desire for sex and food follow

    Everyone had gathered at the AR mansion early as Asteria was to bring Rosaline and William’s baby.Tessa jumped first and ran to the door.She could not snatch the baby from Asteria’s arm, and Asteria would not give him away.They argued as they reached Rosaline’s side.The silent baby finally made a cooing noise as he leaped at Rosaline.“You heartless brat, I have been looking after you for two days, and you did not even speak to me once,” Asteria exclaimed, making everyone laugh.She had become much more cheerful in Apex city. She was unrestrained and happy.Everyone was waiting to hold the baby.Leena whistled and said, “Don’t crowd around him. Give him some breathing space. Rosy will introduce everyone to him.”They all grumbled and sat down.Jack had to grab Tessa and Albert by the collar and make them sit.Meanwhile, the baby rested his head on Rosaline’s shoulders but kept facing outside.“Don’t be mad at Mamma. Mamma was busy. Look, Mamma brought Dada home.” Rosaline convince

    Danial, Isabella, Rosaline, and William went to the Scott family mansion.They had identified and reported the spies to the authorities.Someone had screened the entire mansion for hidden bugs.They enjoyed a lively dinner. It was the most peaceful meal in over five months. They shared what was going on and celebrated the reunion.They had planned to fly to Apex city the next day.They had given a week off to everyone in both companies except the support staff. It was to gear everyone up for the drastic changes that were to happen in Scott Group and to set the pace they would pick up at AR Group. Finally, William and Rosaline were alone in their bedroom.He hugged her close as soon as they locked the door.“You worked so hard,” William sounded sad.“It was the only time I had gotten physically involved. I only worked from the sidelines and helped the rescued people. It was emotionally draining to see so much suffering.”“But I tried my best to channel it into helping others, spreadin

    Rosaline tried to soothe her.“Forget those vile creatures. That phase in your life is over. It’ll never go away, but it’s only a past now.”“The baby is innocent. It’s 29 weeks old now. Already fully formed.”“That gives you three options - you can keep the baby.”“You can abort it.”“Or you can wait a few more weeks. After the 34th week, we can do a c-section. The baby will be kept in a NICU until it is ready to be taken away.”“It’ll have a very high chance of survival after 34 weeks. You need at least six weeks for your physical injuries to heal anyway. You will be in the hospital regardless.”“And even if you want to abort, you’ll have to wait two weeks before your other injuries are healed enough for the procedure to be safe for your body.”“You can sleep on it and make a choice.”The girl looked at her and asked, “If I give birth, what will happen to the child?”Rosaline answered, “Depends on what you want. You can leave it in CARE if you don’t want to raise it. I promise the c

    Rosaline broke the silence before the reporters could ask anything.“This little girl needed 30 stitches to heal the wound caused by rape. I had qualms about signing the consent form to terminate the pregnancy, which she called a monster. It would have undoubtedly torn her already vulnerable body apart.”The host silenced the reporters and played another clip.It showed a hospital bed and a young woman with a big pregnant belly. Her face was blurred, but she looked young.A police officer took her statement while a nurse and Rosaline stayed in the room.“Miss , let me confirm the details as you have mentioned previously. You met Peter a year ago in a cafe. He asked you out, you refused, he started to harass you, and then you filed a complaint against him.”“We found the complaint in the FIR box in the police station of south branch-9, which is close to your house. You and your parents met with an accident five days after you had filed an FIR.”The girl trembled, and Rosaline hel

    Rosaline asked.“Whose permission do we need to terminate any possible pregnancy? They are too young to consent to anything, and god knows when we will find their families.”She slumped down and leaned on the wall as she sighed.“On top of everything, I don’t want them to have to carry a pregnancy to term. Under a proper environment, there is a chance they might heal and have a life, a family, and a future ahead. Let’s protect that.”“Thank you, Chief!”“Can we also get permission for the girls to choose if they want to return to their homes or stay in CARE?”“I suspect one of the girls got sold by her family. The others were in unwanted, improvised conditions. Only the 13-year-old seems to come from a loving family. If they don’t have a healing environment at home, let them stay in CARE. When they are better, they can move out anytime they want.”“Thank you, Chief. I will get the documents from you and prepare them after I get checked at the hospital.”“Don’t worry! I won’t mess with

    A reporter asked a question that was not related to the case.“Miss Dayne, there are rumors that all the rescued rape victims get forced to have an abortion before being admitted to CARE. Could you shed some light on the matter?”The host replied, “Please keep the questions limited to the case.”Rosaline smiled at the host and answered, “That is not true. But I think I should be able to answer more clearly if your question was specific.”The reporter was stunned but soon asked, “Is it true that you have signed the consent form for abortion for the rape victims who were underage?”“Yes, that is true.”The reporter sneered, “In that case, it is true.”Rosaline countered, “I think you should get your facts straight and understand the nuances while discussing a sensitive topic.”“I have signed a consent form to terminate the pregnancy caused by six months of continuous rape of an 8-year-old who was in no way capable of sustaining a pregnancy on her physically undeveloped body that needed

    Chief Green continued after the reporters quieted down.“After an in-depth investigation, we uncovered some evidence which indicated Mr. Jackson Senior’s involvement in the accident of Mr. Andrew Scott’s pregnant wife.”“Mr. Jackson Junior’s involvement in missing funds and misappropriation of money and resources within Scott Group subsidiaries came to light. We also found evidence of him bribing many staff members of Scott Group.”“Ultimately, there was evidence of their involvement in child trafficking. It linked both cases together.”“Furthermore, Mr. Jackson Senior was the leading investigator of the case of Mrs. Andrew. He was also the senior leader overseeing the capture of the suspect - Peter.”“However, there was no motive linking them, and their accounts were clean. And the evidence was not enough.”“So, we had to dig deeper, and we uncovered Mr. Jackson’s sister, who had wanted to marry into the Scott family, had gone missing and was presumed dead two years before Mrs. Andre

    “You bitch, you called the cops,” Michael said venomously, spittle spraying from his mouth.“Someone is indeed helping you from the inside. No wonder we failed three times.” Rosaline said calmly.“Hahaha, you are smart. No wonder you found all my hideouts. Too bad you can’t catch me, though.” He sneered.“For what you did to those little girls, I will make sure you get caught, even if it’s the last thing I do,” Rosaline vowed.“Those little cunts were so tight. I am getting hard just thinking of them. The youngest one, how old was that bitch again? Ah! 8, 7 when I bought her. She was one feisty bitch, so much like you. When I shoved myself inside her, she begged until she passed out. One day, I will make sure you do the same. I won’t kill you today. I am going to fuck you bloody first.
