last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Elisa had been sorting the gifts for in-laws, double-checking to ensure they were in the correct order.

She would occasionally glance at Miranda and Lina and sigh inwardly.

As a mother, she did not seem to know anything about her daughter.

She was unaware of what she was doing with Tessa.

It was the first time she had heard her mention having to finish something before her break.

'Is that why she had been living at Tessa's place?'

She wondered in her heart, too proud to ask anyone else or confront Lina for answers.

Miranda and Rosaline had been joking and laughing like they were best friends.

Elisa could not even remember the last time Lina had laughed so heartily in her presence.

Whenever they were together, they would always argue.

She did not know what Lina had been doing all these weeks. She had spent less than a week at home before she moved out to Tessa's place.

Elisa knew she had been helping Maddox with some errands here and there for the wedding, but only because Maddox woul

    The day was busy but uneventful.The Dayne family was excited to have a new addition to the family. While Ria had been more or less a family for years already, now it would be legal.Maddox and Ria had been secretive about their honeymoon plans and were getting teased relentlessly by the youngsters.Rosaline had wanted to know how his bachelorette went but was utterly disappointed.She had tried to coax, cajole, trick him into telling her, but he would only tease her in return.Miranda was amused looking at the two of them.“You girls should learn from your brother while choosing a partner. It’s so good knowing Ria’s addition to the family won’t affect any of your dynamics. Make sure whoever you choose will be able to mingle just as well with the family.”Tina only snorted at that and looked away, ignoring her. Seeing Miranda's face fall, Rosaline chipped in right away.“Aunty, don’t worry. Brother and I already have a deal. He will help me find out if I picked a good one."Maddox sno

    The Browns were having a rather unhappy meal. Ria and Maddox had been living together for the last few years.They were childhood lovers, and everyone knew they would get married one day. Even so, Browns felt rather heavy-hearted when the time came to marry her off.Tristen tried to liven the mood as best as he could, but Ria and Rita started sniffling halfway through the meal.So, he and William began to chat about other things.Even Anabella looked very sad and had wet eyes. William did not care that much about it.He thought it was the same whether she was married or not. To him, Ria would always be a Brown and his little sister.A wedding to him was just a formality and marriage a legal stamp on an otherwise destined bond. He had been living away his whole life, and his equation with Ria had remained the same even after she started living together with Maddox.He got along with Maddox well enough. More importantly, he knew Maddox was a good person, loved his sister, and cherish

    Jeremy was surprised to see Lina and Liam together.He knew they had called off the engagement. It had even strained the relationship between Daynes and Browns.But why were they together then?It did not look like he was just helping Lina while on his way.Jeremy could see from his window as Liam caressed Lina’s cheeks and held her hand as they walked.He could not understand what went on in the children’s heads, so he chose not to meddle.Lina was sensible, and he had a good impression of Liam as well.Maddox knew about them, which implied they were not keeping it a secret.Maybe as Lina said, they were not sure yet. So they wanted to keep it low-key. She had said they had met a month ago.It was rather stupid to ask them to get engaged out of the blue when he thought like that.Tina, on the other hand, was fuming.Despite all her efforts, they still got together. That bitch Lina played her. She lied about dating someone else and got together with Liam behind her back.She had heard

    William chuckled when Rosaline heaved an audible sigh after he stopped the car at the garage of AR Mansion.“What’s so funny?”“If you were scared, you could have told me. You were clutching my jacket so tightly. There are probably finger-shaped holes on them. Did you also hold your breath throughout the way?”“I could not possibly hold my breath for that long.”“If you are scared, just tell me. Don’t keep it in.”“You were the one who told me not to disturb you.”“I did, but that’s not what I meant.”“What did you mean?”Amidst the bickering, Rosaline did not realize he had lowered the car seat, and she was practically lying on his chest.She looked up when he laughed, only to find herself in an ambiguous position. “Wait. How did we get like this? And oh, dear god, I wanted to go to Tessa’s.”“I thought you agreed to stay with me.”“No, I was just teasing you. My clothes and everything are still in Tessa’s place. We planned to get our hair and makeup done in her place before going t

    William took a shower and settled himself in the bed, spooning her.She seemed lost in thought, so he whispered.“A penny for your thoughts?”She smiled at him as she said.“Just thinking about the food in the buffet tomorrow.”William was speechless. He told her about Ria.“Ria was crying today. She and Maddox have been living together for so many years. I don’t see what’s there to cry about because of marriage. Isn’t this just a formality?”“How could it be just formality?”“Why not? Marriage is just legally binding. What matters is the feeling between two people.”“In essence, you are right, but not entirely. In our minds, marriage has been engraved as a union and, in many ways, the outcome of a relationship. On a subconscious level, it provides a level of security.”“If I don’t love you but still marry you, how could you possibly be secure?”“If we are married, even if you don’t love me, I’d still be your legal family. You could fool around all you like, but those women would only

    Rosaline was sound asleep when she felt itchy on her cheek.The feeling spread to her ears, neck, shoulders, collar bones, and chest. It felt good that she smiled and giggled.It went from a simple teasing to intense, making her pant.She slowly opened her eyes and looked around in confusion.She saw a grinning William on top with his weight on her. He had wrapped his hands around her ass.Her heart skipped a beat.William could feel her irregular breathing and the affection on her still hazy eyes.That made him happier.He kissed her nose as he muttered, “Good morning!”Rosaline was unsure if she was dreaming or awake. She slowly caressed his cheeks and trailed her hand on his neck and back. William chuckled at that. “Looks like you want to continue.”But Rosaline was too dazed to say anything.Seeing that, he trailed his hand from her ass to her thighs.He caressed her inner thigh and trailed it to her stomach and breasts. Seeing her relish in his touch, he peppered kisses all ov

    William and Rosaline took a heavy breakfast and left for Tessa’s house.William dropped her off and drove to the Brown family mansion. The wedding went without any issues.However, just as they were playing the video story of the couple, the screen went blank.They tried it several times, but it went blurry and went black.Tina and Supriya exchanged a glance. They had planned a special surprise for Lina.William quickly realized something was wrong. He took Tristen to see what was wrong.Just as he had expected, there was a video story of Rosaline instead of the bride and groom.He copied it and took note of people working on it. Tristen called the resort manager and had the staff arrested. They quickly found the correct video and played it. Everything went without a hitch.But Supriya and Tina had come prepared.Tina knew Tessa was to follow them to Bellum city, so they had got someone to puncher her car.The rest of the party left as they waited for people to come and fix it.Anab

    Tina was scared, and a very uneasy feeling crept into her heart.She and Supriya had a perfect plan. Even though William had intercepted Rosaline’s video and their hired ‘mechanics’ were apprehended, Elisa and George believed that the police had caught Lina and Tessa doing shameful things in public.Tina was beyond elated seeing George slap Lina. Even when Lina talked back in defiance, she knew she had succeeded.Tina only saw anger and indifference in Lina. Their bond was now completely broken. William showed up and ruined her mood, but she was still complacent. But when she saw ‘the waiter’ that they had passed 15% of the shares to come to aid Tessa, she sensed danger. The feelings of danger and horror intensified as William and ‘the waiter’ exchanged knowing glances. Rosaline looked at William and said, “Let’s end this.”George and Elisa were stupefied.They did not know what to think or what to do.George and Elisa had been uneasy since the previous day as they realized how s

    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. And, you won’t be able to do anything because you can’t touch me.”Michael punched her on the stomach, spat on her face, and left.Rosaline took a minute before she managed to stand.She took off her ea
