Lying comfortably on the bed in my bedroom in Alfonso Villa, I was so into the book I was reading, it was quite interesting and the plot was so twisted making me want to do nothing but read more.Hearing a knock coming from the door I grimaced, who could it be? I just got to the most interesting part of the book and it needed any full attention I thought before lazily dragging myself up, going towards the door to answer it.Opening the door I saw Sofia, raising an eyebrow at her. I don't mean to be rude but all I wanted right now was to get back to my book. Smiling a little at me " I was asked to ask if you would like to take anything. " Giving her forced smile I shake my head before replying " no am good. " Closing the door I quickly race back to the bed jumping on it and picking the book up ready to finish it.After some few chapters I heard a knock on the door again, groaning loudly. I got up to open the door.Looking at the old lady in front of me who had a black and white unifor
Rose AlexanderI stood by the side of the bed with my mouth open as I looked towards the pile of dresses and shoes that were in the middle of the room. Raising my head back up I saw some ladies bringing in more clothes and bags with them.Groaning quietly as I knew it was the work of that devil I never took it seriously when he said he was going to rebrand me, but that heel devil was actually going through with his plan. "Madam please come and pick whatever you will like please" the woman who I got to know was a designer asked me gesturing for me to come forward. Picking each piece and stretching it to see the designer I frowned as most of the dresses here were not my style really, they were either too revealing or too bold and I was more of a girl who likes and believes in covering myself up from head to toe.It's been over an hour and we still could not get into any agreement as I refused to pick any of the clothes that were brought for me. Blowing an air of frustration the designe
Rose Alexander PovI had to wake up early today in order for me to execute my plan. I had everything covered of course except for the guard that am now finding out are guarding the front of the gigantic gate of this mansion. I marked down every single place that has a camera, and every angle I can take to escape, I know it will not be easy but either way I have to leave here today and I know I can't just walk out and say I want to go. That arrogant beast won't let me so it up to me.Fixing the cap on my head I looked around one more time to see if am missing anything before bolting to my room as I saw the sun was already rising and Sofia would soon come get me for breakfast.Reaching my room I quickly undressed myself and threw my hat somewhere in the room, putting back on my night wear before jumping on the bed. Picking up the remote control I decided to check how far the topic of my disappearance have gone.Half way through a programing I was watching I heard a knock on my door know
Alfonso Tommaso I had to wake up early today as I was called during the night and had some business to take care of. Some thugs were attacking my worker at one of my warehouse.

Rubbing my temple slightly I couldn't help but worry about Rose I thought we both had an agreement so what's wrong, why did she leave again? or is something wrong I wondered.Trying to calm myself down first I rubbed my temple in circle before picking up my phone to call my guard. " I want all guard to check every single corner around the villa, she definitely won't have gone far and if she was taken they will definitely still be around the estate okay. " I said cutting the call not waiting for the person on the other side of the phone to give me an answer.Standing back up I picked my coat and phone and made my way out of the office. I ordered my secretary to cancel all my meetings for the time being before walking towards the elevator.I was about to press the button to open the elevator when it opened it's on.

Alfonso Tommaso PovLooking at my friend wondering why he was grumpy, I decided to just let him be for now and ask him later as I had a lot on my plate as well." So what's this about a Rose you were talking about? " He asked." As I said she's a lady I saved when I went to Canada the other week for a business meeting with Mr Andrew. " I said trying to remind of him of our last visit to Canada." Why am I just knowing you saved a girl and why are you getting married to her again?
