MILLS COMPANY, LAS VEGAS "Fred, we have lots of work to do. Let go," Rosaline told Frederick who seemed like he couldn't get enough of her. Since they arrived at the office, they had barely done any work, as Frederick could not keep his hands to himself. He would leave his desk and go over to Rosaline's, and hug her, at times, he kissed her. This time, he had kept his seat beside her and was holding her hand, preventing her from doing any work."Work can wait. I just want to spend each passing minute with you.""At this rate, your company will become bankrupt soon," Rosaline said."I don't care. I've made enough money to last me a lifetime.""Fred, stop," Rosaline giggled, Frederick had tickled her ear with his tongue."That's enough now, let us focus on…" she trailed off when Frederick picked her up and placed her on top of her desk. He parted her legs and stood in between them."Fred, you.."Frederick didn't let her complete what she was about to say. He attacked her lips with his.
"Let's go to your room, mine is messy right now," Zara told Rosaline as they climbed the stairs."Alright," Rosaline replied. She was wondering what Zara wanted to talk about. She really hoped that Zara had given up on Frederick. However, if she hasn't, this might be her chance to make Zara know that Frederick was in love with her(Rosaline ) so she won't keep waiting for him.When they got into the room, Zara shut the door and pulled Rosaline to the bed. Before Zara could say a word, Rosaline said:"Zara, I know you are in love with Fred, I'm aware of how you put your life in danger to make him safe. You've really sacrificed a lot for him. Not anyone can do what you did for him."Zara faked a sad voice and said:"Don't…I know what you're going to say to me, but please don't…""Zara, listen to me first," Rosaline said in a pleading voice."No, hear me out first_" Zara pleaded, making Rosaline shut her mouth and listen."I dated Frederick for over two years, we should have been married
Two days had already passed and Rosaline was yet to wake up. Zara had woken up the day after she fainted. When she was questioned about what happened to Rosaline, he said Rosaline had spilled her oily bathing soap, which she wanted to use and wash her face. Everyone believed her because, to them, Zara couldn't hurt Rosaline."My gem please open your eyes," Frederick pleaded desperately, he held Rosaline's hand tightly. Ever since he was told that Rosaline was in a coma, he hasn't left her side. His hair was messy, he had dark circles due to lack of sleep, and His eyes were red and puffy as a result of constant crying."Sir, you have to eat something please, you haven't eaten anything for two days," Isaac told him. "At this rate sir, you'll be admitted alongside your wife. The both of you will have to share the hospital bed," Frederick jokes, but Frederick wasn't in the mood for jokes."Leave, if you have nothing reasonable to say," Frederick boomed.Isaac bowed his head and went towa
Yvonne arrived at the hospital and met Zara who was waiting for her in the lobby."Mum, you are here," Zara exclaimed on seeing her. She went over to her and hugged her."How have you been, dear? I heard about what happened to you. Are you okay now? Are you hurting anywhere?" Yvonne asked her. Ever since Rosaline was admitted to the hospital, Yvonne has not bothered to visit, as she did not see any reason why she should visit someone whom she hates. Her coming to the hospital was because of Zara. "I'm fine now, Mum. Do not worry yourself," Zara told her."You have to make Frederick leave the room. He has to go home and wash up," Zara said."I'm aware of that dear. However, you have to go with him_" she winked at Zara. "This might be your chance to get him back. You know what I mean.""Stop mum, Frederick is now married to someone else. I can not do that," Zara said, pretending like what Yvonne just said had not crossed her mind."You went through a lot of torture because of my son.
The nurse occasionally glanced at Yvonne. When she saw that her attention was not on her, she pulled out a syringe she had hidden in her dress and injected its content into the IV fluid connected to Rosaline. However, she failed to notice Rosaline's piercing gaze. Once she was done injecting the substance into the IV, Rosaline pulled off her oxygen mask and disconnected the IV from her arm, startling her. Her eyes widened when she saw that Rosaline was awake. She dashed to the door."Someone, stop her," Rosaline said weakly.Yvonne, who heard the commotion, came into the room. She saw the nurse struggling to open the door, which she had locked earlier."Stop her," Rosaline said weakly.The nurse pulled the door open and ran out of the room. Yvonne didn't bother going after her. Who was Rosaline, to tell her what to do?"Fred…Frederick," Rosaline called out."Oh, you expect my son to sit still and wait for you when we had no idea of whether you'll even wake up_" She gave her a mocking
"Why didn't you tell me that Rosaline has woken up?" Zara asked in a whisper. She was on a phone call with the thug she had sent to kill Rosaline."You're lucky I was not caught. Because if I had been caught, I would make sure you go down with me.""You failed to inform that the bitch was awake. And now you're threatening me?" Zara asked angrily. Her voice was a bit loud, this time. She shut her mouth immediately when she realized that her voice had sounded louder than she intended "Listen, send my payment right away. And do not ever call me to rant again.""Fuck you," Zara cursed and hung up. She turned around and saw Rosaline watching her from inside the room. She put her phone into her pocket, pushed open the glass door that adjoined the balcony with the room, and entered."Are you okay?" Rosaline asked.Zara smiled at her and said."Yeah… I'm good," Zara replied."Oh, I thought I heard you shout earlier. Are you sure you're okay?" Rosaline asked again. Zara bobbed her head. Then
Things have not been pleasant for Martha and her son. The company was nearing bankruptcy with each passing day. Ace had squandered the company's earnings on women and gambling. Martha wished she had let Rosaline continue working in the company. She had tried her possible best to save the company. But the money Ace had squandered was too much. Majority of the employees had all resigned, due to lack of payment. The only option she had right now was to sell the company."I curse the day I gave birth to you, Ace," Martha told Ace in a bitter tone. But Ace didn't seem affected by it."I told you to let Rosaline continue working at the company, while we keep the income to ourselves. But you refused. Now you want to put the blame on me. I curse having you as my mother. You're a bad influence," Ace said.SLAP!Martha's palm landed on Ace's cheek."How dare you say that to me? After everything I did for you?""What the hell did you do for me, huh? You made me do whatever I liked. Whenever I d
"Good morning, my gem," Frederick said with a smile. Rosaline smiled and greeted him too. Both lay on the bed in a comfortable silence. After a while, Rosaline asked:"Aren't you going to the office today?"Frederick grinned."Why should I? I told you I've made enough money to last me a lifetime.Rosaline glared at him."Be serious, Fred."Frederick smiled and shrugged. Rosaline glared at him again and got off the bed. Frederick lay there looking at her and smiling like a fool."Why are you staring at me like that?" Rosaline asked. Instead of replying, Frederick licked his lips and continued staring. Rosaline looked down at herself, to know why he was gazing at her like she was a hot meal."You..perv," she said when realized that she was stark naked. She pulled the duvet from Frederick and covered herself.She entered the bathroom to have a bath. Before she could shut the door, Frederick came in."Let's shower together."Rosaline nodded and both proceeded to bathe together. After show
