Rose ate in silence, she couldn’t get her mind off the thought that Charles was smart enough to remove the documents from the house knowing fully well that she would come for it, she was glad that he didn’t underestimate her capabilities but he was wondering where he might have kept it, if it wasn’t in his room then where else could it be? She munched slowly on the food Melanie had served her sipping the glass of juice in front of her at intervals, Melanie sat opposite her, eating slowly as well while she thought about Rose and her evil motives, she just couldn’t wait to have her leave already as she was tired of watching her boss her around claiming to be her husband’s sister, well she couldn’t act otherwise else she would be in big trouble, she just needs to keep playing the dumb Melanie everyone knows, in few minutes Rose was done with her food, she moved quietly to the couch and sat there, she just couldn’t believe that she was unable to
Melanie was sure that Charles had gone to Rose’s house, well whatever the case might be, she didn’t seem to care, she just couldn’t wait to watch them fight each other especially now neither of them trust each other, she brushed her hairs behind her ear fling the rest which have crippled out from her roughly packed her, it scoffed feeling relieved that her plans were truly falling in place and just sooner or later, both Charles and Rose would find themselves behind bars where they truly belong, well her birthday wasn’t far from near which means Charles would do anything and everything to get the papers from Rose cause it was impossible for him to believe that she doesn’t have, who else would have been smart enough to take them after all?Melanie was all smiles, twisting the end of her dress slowly while she climbed the staircase to her room to check out the gadgets Mr James had helped her purchase, she got into her room and locked the door, she rem
Carmella beamed with smiles glaring at Melanie beneath her growl while waiting for her to take a sip from the glass of wine, Melanie quietly held on to the glass cup rubbing her left hand over and over again on her forehead, Carmella stood in front of her, she was getting pretty very nervous and anxious at the same time to see Melanie drink from the cup, she stood right in front of her bearing her glass cup in her hand with her gaze fixed on her, Melanie didn’t notice she was staring at her that way, she just couldn’t explain what was going on with her, she could feel an unusual burning sensation in her head, it was more like it was being ripped apart, she kept on seeing flashes of a girl pushing another girl off a cliff and the other girl falling helplessly into a big river landing her head on a large stone, she shook the flashes off over and over again hoping it would stop, she just couldn’t explain it and didn’t know if she should talk to Carmella about it
Charles bit bitterly on his lips while he drove down the road, he could feel his blood boiling in his veins and his heart pumping blood really very fast, his eyes had turned blood shot and he was scared that he might do something terrible to Rose, it was so obvious that his temper was beyond control, he rapped his hands around the steering making his grip even more tighter than he previously was, he was careful not to bypass traffic to avoid attracting the police or any other security personnel’s as the outcome might even be more disastrous cause he wouldn’t stop even when they have asked him too, he kept his eyes glued to the road and gnashed his teeth at interval, he couldn’t wait to get his hands on Rose and make her pay dearly for what she has done, of everything Charles expected her to do, he did not for once imagine that Rose would go this far not to talk of making away with the documents which proves he has legal rights to Melanie’s inheritance though
Finally he parked his car in front of her apartment, he huffed and puffed loudly, he ran his hands under his jaw and grinned softly at himself, he knew that he wasn’t the nice guy most people thought that he was, he is rather everyone’s nightmare just like he is about to become a horrible night mere to Rose. He sat there in his car rubbing his palm over and over again, he took a deep breath and finally stepped down from the car adjusting his clothes.Earlier…Rose had arrived home looking very upset, her face boiling with rage, she just couldn’t explain how she felt but she didn’t feel good at all, she had driven into the compound roughly, she felt exhausted and at the same time disappointed, her plans failed, her plans of stealing the documents from Charles house and paralyzing him failed woefully, she had so much confidence that her plan would definitely, she was so sure that the documents were in that room, she moved over to her bar an
Rose was forced out of her sleep when the knock came over and over again, at first she was startled, she gasped realizing that she had fallen asleep, she took a quick glance around without realizing that someone have been at the door knocking for a couple of minutes, though she vomited most of the whiskey she took, some of it still found it’s way down to her body system which ended up weakening her muscles, she sighed running her hand across her forehead, she felt an unbearable headache for her moment and winced in pain.Then their came the knock, it sounded pretty louder than the one that woke her up previously, she struggled to stand wondering who was knocking, as a matter of fact she wasn’t expecting anyone so she only wondered who might be at her door, She moved slowly towards it feeling totally reluctant, standing in front of the door without asking who it was, she unlocked it and pulled it open, she gasped at the sight of Charles, he was the last person she
We are enemies Rose, isn’t that the more reason why you are supposed to stay away from me?” He arched his brow.Rose chortled “did you just say stay away from you? Maybe you have forgotten Charles that you and I have an unfinished business, you owe me and trust me I would not, I would never stay away until I have what rightfully belongs to me.”Charles raised his brows “aren’t you supposed to be Melanie’s best friend?”“And aren’t you supposed to be her dear husband you backstabbing bastard!” She cursed in rage.Charles looked away, he felt really angered by her words and forced to react but he held himself “I came to take what rightfully belongs to me Rose, I didn’t come to batter words with you, just kindly give it back and I would be on my way.”Rose’s eyes grew wide, she looked totally confused and didn’t understand what he was talking about “w
On Rose seeing the look on his face, she nodded in continuation to what she was saying earlier “yes, I didn’t know that you are stupid, infact you are the most stupid person I have ever met all my life, wait a minute! So because I came to your house and lied to your wife that I was your sister, you have the guts to walk into my apartment and turn the story around claiming that I made a way with some property documents, the same one you have in your care and perhaps have moved it to wherever you deem fit just to get it out of my reach” she grinned “well, one thing I am so glad about is that you didn’t underestimate me Charles, you didn’t… but you see this game you are trying to pull of here, I am so sorry to disappoint you young man but it won’t work at all, not on me Charles, you have failed woefully, come up with something else cause I am definitely not backing out of the quest to have half of Melanie’s inheritance, I don&rsquo
Her eyes gradually went bloodshot has her legs have been swept off the floor, she was hanging in the air at the mercy of the man who she had built her entire world around, at the mercy of the man whom she believed was her first and her last, the man she believed she would spend the rest of her life with, the last couple of minutes have been pretty hot, both parties exchanging words arguing over a couple of documents which was really very important, Charles knew he would be doomed if he doesn’t get his hands on those documents, whatever Rose’s plans were he couldn’t tell but what if she decides to go to the police or maybe to the lawyer to tell them everything, he couldn’t afford to spend the rest of his life behind bars, he shook his head desperately at that thought believing that Rose would never do something as ugly as that, after all she once confessed love to him and she would definitely end up behind bars with him if she goes ranting about anything but w
