"Miss Amira Ronald, you're fired," Frederick said, without having an eyelash."Fi..fired? But I did not do anything wrong. I clearly told your wife not to sign the documents…""Leave!" Frederick thundered, cutting her off. Rosaline giggled, she was definitely enjoying this. Amelia glared at her. "With all due respect, sir. Your wife was the one who signed the documents, not me," Amira said. She was not going to back out easily. "You still have the nerve to lie in my presence?" Frederick asked, eying her displeasure."Get out!" He thundered again. This time, he rose from his seat and walked towards the door, pulled it open, and gestured to her to see herself out.Amira slowly walked to the door. But instead of leaving like she was told, he turned to Frederick."I love you…. I really do," she confessed. At that moment, Rosaline felt a surge of anger within her. She stood up and stormed towards Amira and Frederick at the door."Do not test my patience, young lady. Get the hell out of
As Frederick drove Rosaline to the unknown, she couldn't help but wonder what he was up to. She occasionally glanced at him, while wondering where they were headed."I know I'm too handsome, you can now stop staring," Frederick said. Rosaline scoffed and looked out the window.About thirty minutes later, the car pulled up in front of a grand restaurant. Rosaline marveled at the sight before her. This was the most beautiful restaurant she has ever come across."What are we doing here?" she asked."We are here to play," Frederick replied and began to laugh. Rosaline wondered if he had banged his head on a wall. Everything he was doing right from the moment they left the office, didn't seem like something he would do.Rosaline and Frederick took an elevator to the rooftop of the restaurant. Frederick had made a reservation earlier. The rooftop was lit with red candles, whose flames glowed in the dark night, making it enchanting. The table was covered with red material. In fact, the whole
"Time's up, say your wish."Rosaline looked at Frederick for a while, then said."Allow me to leave the Mills mansion.""What?" Frederick asked wide-eyed. This was by no means what he expected to hear." I said let me leave the Mills mansion," Rosaline repeated."Why..why do you want to leave," Frederick asked in a low voice. Looking at him, one could tell that he was hurt by Rosaline's wish."We never said we will tell each other the reason behind our wish," Rosaline reminded him.Frederick sighed, Rosaline's wish was really hard to grant. But he had to do it, so that she could at least develop an iota of feeling for him."Alright, you can leave the mansion.."Frederick had not finished talking when Rosaline cut him off."Really," she asked. She never expected him to grant her wish that easily."Yes….But I will leave the mansion with you.""Huh?""We will leave the Mills mansion together," Frederick said, then took her hands, which were resting on the table. He gazed into her eyes."
NEXT MORNING Frederick lay awoke on the bed, with a sleeping Rosaline in his arms. He watched her sleep peacefully. When her eyes fluttered, he quickly shut his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Rosaline opened her eyes and found herself in Frederick's arms, looking at him, he appeared to be in a deep sleep. She lay there, staring at him and wondering why he was suddenly acting the way he did last night. When she failed to figure it out, she sighed and got down from the bed, then entered the bathroom. Frederick sensing that she had left the room, opened his eyes and stared at the closed bathroom door."I will make you mine, Rosaline Robinson."************************ "Dad, I'm ready to go," Hailey announced."You have to wait for your brother to come back. You can't just leave to work in his company, without informing him," Bradley said."But I'll miss my flight," she whined."That's not an excuse, you can take the private jet."Yvonne who had been silently listening to their conver
A WEEK LATER Things seemed to have been moving perfectly for everyone. Hailey was in Australia working alongside Victor while trying to capture his heart. Frederick was still trying to make Rosaline open her heart to him. This time he had made some breakthroughs. Living together made them rely on each other for almost everything. He had refused to hire a cook so that he and Rosaline could prepare their meals together and strengthen their growing bond."Hand me the salt," Rosaline said to Frederick who was lost in thought. When he didn't make an attempt to get the salt, Rosaline placed the hot spoon she was using to stir the soup on his arm."Awwww," Frederick yelped and pulled his arm away."What was that for?" He asked."Hand me the salt," she repeated.Frederick grumbled and handed the salt to her.********************* Once they were done cooking, both sat at the dining table and ate their meal. This last week, Frederick had developed a habit of bringing up a topic during their
"I'm Zara Wright," the lady said. Rosaline stared at her wondering where she had heard her name. But she failed to recall."You might not know, but I can assure you your dear husband does," Zara said.Just then, Frederick, who had been waiting for Rosaline to come back, came downstairs, in search of her."Who is there?" He asked."Some lady, who claims to know you," Rosaline replied."Lady? Claim to know me?" Frederick asked and hurried over to the door to know who it was. He hadn't gotten to the door when Rosaline said:"Yes, she said her name is Zara Wright." Frederick halted his movement on hearing this."What?" "You better get your ass here and stop asking questions," Rosaline said.Frederick slowly walked up to the door. True to what Rosaline said, there stood Zara, who did not look like her former self. She had lost a lot of weight and had some wounds on her body. Her mouth was broken and she had dry blood just above her lips."What are you doing here?" Frederick asked."Can't
"You can stay with us until you get somewhere to stay," Rosaline said.For the first time since Zara entered the house, she smiled genuinely. This bitch was making things very easy for her, she thought."Thank you so much, this means a lot to me. I'll surely repay you," Zara said, crocodile tears dropping from her eyes."It's nothing," Rosaline said with a friendly smile. She wasn't going to let her insecurity cloud her sense of reasoning. This lady right here has gone through a lot and needed help. Frederick coughed to bring back their attention to him."Zara," he called. When Zara looked at him, he said."You said you were kidnapped and threatened to leave me. Do you happen to know who was behind the incident?" He asked.Zara just stared blankly at him, without saying anything. The question had thrown her off guard, as she didn't prepare for such a question. Instead of answering, she began to sniffle and fresh tears ran down her face."I…I can't tell you. He will come after me," sh
"Fred playfully threw it at me," Zara said."Huh?""You must be surprised, you see my Fred has this habit of throwing meat at me each time I prepare a meal for him. He said it's his unique way of saying that my dish is the most delicious," Zara lied.Rosaline mouthed an O."I heard you made breakfast, where is mine?" Rosaline asked, trying so hard to not be affected by what she just heard."Oh, Fred nearly finished everything, I ate the remaining. I'm sorry, I totally forgot to prepare yours," Zara apologized."No need to apologize, I will fix something for myself," Rosaline said and walked off.Zara smirked. She had actually tossed out the food she prepared. Since Frederick didn't eat the food, no one will.After preparing breakfast, Rosaline called Isaac over to give him his share of the food she just prepared. Then, Zara was back in the guest room. When Isaac entered the kitchen and Rosaline handed her the bacon she just prepared. He appeared surprised and said."Mrs. Mills, sorry.
