Albert ignored Tessa for the entire day. He flew back to S city at night as planned.

Tessa had been feeling bad the entire time.

She confirmed with Rosaline that he was on the 8 pm flight as planned.

She drove to the airport to pick him up.

To appease him, she made a placard in the shape of a character he had designed in the first game he and William had developed.

She decorated it with LED lights and wrote his name in big-bold-red letters.

Albert noticed the eye-catching placard as soon as he came out.

He was surprised to see someone use a placard like that but stopped in his tracks after noticing his name on it.

He looked at the person holding the placard from afar and realized it was Tessa.

‘This girl has some conscience, after all.’

He thought, all his frustrations having swept away.

He stealthily made his way toward her, but there weren’t many people at the arrival gate, and she quickly noticed him.

She waved at him and walked toward him.

For the first time, he got the urge to h

    Tessa smiled smugly at him.“It’s kind of funny seeing him sulk. Rosy keeps him on his best behavior.”She said as they both laughed.“I have to admit. I had never thought my brother would fall for someone. That too so quick and so hard.” He said.“Of course. It’s impossible not to love my Rosy. Although, sometimes, Rosy can be a little nag.” She beamed.“She is not your Rosy,” Albert made a face.Tessa just shrugged at him.They talked about work and things at Johnson group of hotels on their way back and while eating.When they were done and had cleaned up the kitchen, they sat on the couch as Tessa broached the subject.“What did you want to talk about?” She asked directly.“About us. What are we? How do we feel for each other?” Albert said, sighing.“What’s there to talk about us? I thought we would just go with the flow. And maybe confess when we either fall in love or feel like it’s not going anywhere.”Tessa asked in confusion.“That’s what I thought. But Dad said he had a thin

    Tessa was thinking hard and suddenly started to process everything that had happened in the last 2-3 days, including what they had just discussed.She frowned and asked, “Al, you were confused. Then why did you kiss me?”Albert stopped pacing and looked at her, “What are you talking about?”“In the parking lot today. You were angry and confused, so why did you kiss me?”“You have some nerve to ask.”“Of course! You said they got you all confused, and you weren’t sure, then why kiss me out of nowhere and confuse me as well.”“Honey, you kissed me back.”“Because I was not going through all this nonsense in my head.”“I don’t know, okay? I saw you standing there and suddenly wanted to kiss you. Then I remembered you hate PDA, so I only held your hand and hugged you. I could not help myself when you kissed me on the cheek. Besides, I waited a few seconds for you to react if you didn't want to. You did not push me away.”“I think we should stop thinking about this too much. How about we t

    Time flew by, and the year was about to end.Things were looking great for the two couples.Tessa and Albert were doing great.They figured it was okay for their relationship to be based on friendship and develop slowly instead of comparing it with that of others who just clicked from the word go.They were friends first, and no matter what happened, they would remain friends.Knowing this strengthened the bond as it took away all the unwanted pressure.Rosaline and William were doing great. Despite living in different cities for two months.They had bought a rundown apartment on the top floor with rights to develop on the roof.It was located halfway between the Dayne family mansion and CARE, which made Rosaline’s life easier.They had been working on renovating it for the previous two months. The renovations were almost complete.William tore it down rather unceremoniously, and they both designed it, including adding a studio apartment on top. They turned the rundown apartment into

    As soon as the three couples arrived in S city, Tessa pulled Rosaline and Asteria and took a cab directly to her apartment.The three boys were left disgruntled but couldn’t do anything about it. Tessa had given Rosaline the time to enjoy her engagement with her fiance, but they needed to talk.The girls were in no hurry to start chatting.They freshened up, ordered a lot of food, opened a bottle of wine, and made themselves comfortable in the living room. “Babe, Spill!” Tessa started. Asteria was once again astonished by the way they communicated.“I woke up as usual in his arms. He tried to steal a kiss as usual, but no kissing with bad breaths, so I dodged by covering my mouth with my palm. He kissed the ring, and I realized I was wearing one. Then he said, ‘Good morning, fiance.’ And that’s it.”Rosaline explained, bliss evident on her glowing face and shining eyes.“That’s it! No grand proposal, no asking the question, just like that.” Tessa was frustrated. “We have been livi

    William and Rosaline lay in their bed in the AR mansion, lost in their thoughts. William turned around and brought her face to face as he asked, “What are you thinking?”Rosaline held his hand and confessed, “I am scared.”William brought her closer and kissed her lightly.“Don’t be. I meant what I said in the parking lot. We will get married and grow old together.”Rosaline asked doubtfully, “What if we are cousins four times removed?”William stared at her eyes and said, “Then we won’t have kids. We will get tested and see if there are any risks to us having kids. If there are, we won't have kids. Nothing else changes. I love you. I won’t stay away from you no matter what.”Rosaline nodded, but a shadow of doubt lingered in the back of her mind. William could sense her emotions, so he kissed her lightly. It took her a bit longer than usual, but she kissed him back eventually.William knew that was the trick with her.As long as he persisted, she would give in.With that thought in

    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
