It has been just one day since Rosaline got the revelation about her mother's accident, one day since Clement discovered that Alex Wright had killed his daughter, one day since Stanley claimed he had had enough of his mum's attitude towards him and true to his words, he came home that day.Rosaline stood on her patio looking at the sky. Her eyes were puffy and misty. Her face was reddened due to too much crying. Stanley stood by her side offering her all the mental support she needed. "I can't seem to figure out why a thug will randomly kill my mum. It doesn't make any sense to me. And your mum won't let me go back in there to find out why he killed my mum. I mean my mum was just simple, she always minded her busy, and she never offended anyone," Rosaline ranted, tears endlessly streaming down her face."Let out your thoughts and frustration. Don't keep it bottled up. Trust me I've been there and it wasn't pleasant," Stanley coaxed her.Rosaline abruptly turned to him. She held his h
Ashton alighted from his car with just one thought in mind. 'Get Rosaline pregnant' He had just arrived at Winnemucca and was heading to the hotel where Rosaline worked previously, thinking that she still worked there. His mind was made up. His eyes blazed with determination. He was going to make Rosaline his, without anyone's help. He was done with making allies. Since Marcus could dump him so easily, he didn't want to risk it again.Ashton entered the hotel determined not to leave until he accomplishes his purpose of coming to Winnemucca. He took a seat at the bar and ordered a drink while looking around for Rosaline. When an hour passed and Rosaline was nowhere in sight, Ashton knew he had to ask around.He waved at a waitress he had also seen at the Marks party that day. "Do you need anything, sir?" The waitress asked."Where is Rosaline?" he asked."Rosaline? I do not know anyone that goes by that name sir," the waitress answered honestly.Ashton pulled out his phone and showed
Ashton found his way to the Marks mansion. Since everyone said that Rosaline was the granddaughter of Clement Mark. That means she will be in the Marks mansion. He concluded."I'm here to see Rosaline," He told the guards who blocked him from entering the mansion."Who are you to her?" The guards queried."Go in there and tell her that Ashton is here to see her," he said bossily.The guards sent a maid to inform Rosaline of Ashton's visit. However, they failed to mention his name to her.Ashton stood outside the mansion waiting for Rosaline. "Where is the visitor?" he heard someone with a deep voice ask.He watched as the guards pointed in his direction, and a bulky guy approached him with a stern expression. "Where is Rosaline?" Ashton asked when he failed to see Rosaline."Seize him," the bulky man ordered.Ashton's eyes grew wide."Seize who?" He asked and looked around to make sure they weren't talking about him.The guards forcefully seized him."What do you think you are doing
"We found this," a guard said and handed two bottles containing pills to Clement.Clement examined the bottles closely, then turned to Ashton."What is a sex stimulant and sleeping pill doing in your pocket?"Ashton stayed silent as he was short of words at that moment. He never expected them to search him. "Will you answer the question or should I force you to answer?" Clement asked."Fuck it. Don't you get it, I'm a guy with sexual needs, and what those items are doing in my pocket is my business, not yours," Ashton answered."Once my family finds out that you are holding me captive. The business collaboration will be canceled. So you better let me go if you still want the collaboration," Ashton added.Hearing him talk about collaboration, Clement now knew that he was indeed a Mills. However, for Rosaline's safety, he still surfed the internet for the Mills family picture. When he saw Ashton's photo there, he ordered for Ashton to be untied and led him out of the dungeon.Clement s
The driver swelled, veered, and deviated the car in different directions to stop the impending doom but all to no avail. The car headed right for the bridge. Rosaline tensed, tears streamed down her face."To whichever God out there. Please save me and my unborn," she prayed earnestly. Rosaline clenched her fist against her dress, held her baby bump, and shut her eyes, ready for the worst to happen.The driver relentlessly marched the brake nonstop, but it seemed like it was of no use. He said a silent prayer as the car inched closer to the bridge. A few meters to the bridge, the driver mustered all the strength he could and forcefully marched the brakes. The car's unharmed tyre screeched loudly and the car stopped abruptly.When Rosaline felt the car stop moving, she slowly opened her eyes. Rosaline, seeing that the car had indeed stopped moving, immediately opened the car door and leaped out of the car. Immediately her feet touch the ground she felt herself get hit by a wave of naus
Frederick found it hard to concentrate on work. His head kept aching. He massaged it multiple times, but all to no avail. It reached an extent where he could barely keep his eyes open. The headache was making his eyes shut as if wanting him to fall asleep. Frederick shut the documents he was working on and leaned on his seat. His throbbing head made him groan painfully. He entered the adjoining bathroom in his office and poured water on his head. But instead of calming the headache, it seemed to accelerate. Frederick staggered back to his office in pain. He couldn't even lift himself to sit on the chair, he sat on the ground and rested his head on the wall. When the ache kept increasing, Frederick knew he had to go to the hospital. But sadly his aching head was blinding his vision and he also had no strength to lift himself from the ground. He pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed the number on his speed dial. "Come to my office right now," he said and hung up.He eventuall
Rosaline's eyes fluttered open. She groaned in pain as she felt her head ache. She tried to raise her hand to massage her head but failed. She looked down at her hands, only to see them chained to the arms of the seat she was in. Memories of how she ended here came crashing into her mind immediately. "Alex Wright, that bastard!" she cursed.She began to forcefully pull her hands to free them from the chains. But who was she kidding, she failed."Let me out of here, someone?" She screamed."My earbuds are hurting from your screams," Alex Wright drew lazily from where he sat watching her.Rosaline's brows furrowed on seeing him."You murderer!" She yelled.Alex Wright yawned as if her words didn't make any sense."Let me go you psycho," Rosaline yelled."The earlier you realize that shouting won't do you any good, the better for you," Alex Wright barked."Look around you missy. Do you think anyone can find you here? The walls here are soundproof, soundproof, even if someone does come
"This is not the time to take questions. We would have to act together to get her back and get rid of him.""I'm still confused, why would Alex Wright abduct Rosaline?" he asked, his facial expression showing that he was really confused.Clement sighed and briefed him on everything."He wants me to transfer all my assets to him," Clement filled him in.Frederick was speechless. His heart burned and he felt worry cloud his mind."I'm going to bring that bastard down myself," Frederick swore."Shh. He is calling, Clement informed him. and gestured for him to keep shut. Then, answered the call."I see that Rosaline's beloved husband came to you. Well, that's great. Because now I also want all the Mills assets as well. Transfer everything to my name within 2 days or forget about her," Alex Wright threatened."Now missy, won't you say Hi to family," Alex Wright teased."Fucker, bastard, idiot murderer," Rosaline spat.Frederick, on hearing her voice, couldn't stop himself from speaking."B
