“Now let me make this clear to everyone,” Marcel started. This child here is my daughter, our daughter and I will take it as a disrespect if anyone dares to bully her or call her a bastard.”Izabelle raised her head and stared at Marcel. Their eyes met. Never would she have imagined that he would announce to the world that he had a child with her. Definitely not this way. She knows how much Marcel hates being the talk of the city hit here he was declaring to everyone that Rosie was his daughter knowing fully well that he was going to be in the headlines for a week or more. The silence in the hall right then as he spoke the shocking words shook the guests to the core. Even Grandfather Rossador was shocked. He never expected that such a thing would happen today but he was happy that Marcel stops up for both the mother and child. Five years ago when he heard that Marcel got his granddaughter pregnant and after seeing the whole situation, he asked them to get married but who would have b
“Shut the fuck up. All I'm saying is true.”“How dare you publish that. If feel like strangling you.”“As if what's there is not true. Stop being a hypocrite and tell everyone the truth, okay? If you don't, I'll help you.”“Stop it!”The noise from outside her room walked Izabelle up the next day. She grunted as she sat up on the bed and stared at Rosie who was beside her. “Un un.”Rosie who was also woken by the noise started crying and only fell back asleep when her mother started patting her back and hugged her to her chest. “What noise is that?”She concentrated her ear to hear what they were saying and caught the voices. The voices belonged to Kathie and Jasmine. She could also hear the Grandfather and Jared’s voices. What were they arguing about? Because the argument started getting louder and harsher, Izabelle stood up from the bed still in her pajamas, and walked out of the room. The scene that she met outside made her eyes widen. The whole members of the family were on th
It was as if the world stopped for a moment as Kathie’s eyes widened as she slowly fell forward. Everything happened in slow motion and everyone’s eyes popped up in shock. Oh no!“Kathieee!”“Kathhh.”“Daughterrr.”Their hands fell forward as if they wanted to catch her but she was far away and already rolling down the stairs. Her big belly rolled with her. “Kathy,” Jared muttered as he took fast jumps down the stairs to go save his wife and their unborn child. He pushed Jasmine to the side and ran forward. God help him so she doesn't land on the floor because if she does, it will be in full force and it is going to be so bad. Luckily, before she could get to the landing, Jared managed to jump there before her and landed on the floor so that she ended up landing on his body.“Kathie.” “Mommy?” Before Izabelle could climb down the stairs, she heard the frightened voice of her baby. She was just coming out of the room with her pajamas and she just encountered the frightening scene of
“Doctor, how is she? My wife?”“I asked how my wife is?”“Calm down, sir.”“Don't ask me to calm down, dammit,” he ran his hands through his hair in frustration. His hand pulled at his hair and he almost hit the doctor when he came and held his shoulders. He wasn't going to listen to anyone even though everyone was screaming at him to calm the hell down. “Jared, let's hear what the doctor has to say. Stop acting this way,” Izabelle complained. “No…no,” his back traced the wall downwards and his butt landed on the floor, his hands on his head. Was he ready for what the doctor had to say? No, of course. He wasn't ready for that. That can't be. Before anyone could say anything, the door of the emergency room pushed open and the nurses wheeled the bed with Kathie on it. Her eyes were closed and she was looking as pale as ever. No one has ever seen her that pale. A nurse walked over to the grandfather and took the now-sleeping baby from him. Although the baby was looking normal like ev
“Fine then. You're really just going to stand there and not say anything? Huh, grandfather? Didn't you promise my grandfather that you were going to protect me and take me as your daughter? Is this how you're going to break your promise?” Jasmine started. “You are such a hypocrite. How I heard that the grandfather of the Rossador family always keeps to his promise but that is a big fat lie. A huge one.”“There’s nothing grandfather would do this time. He always saves you from every situation but not this time, okay? You did wrong and you should be punished,” said Izabelle. “Don't lecture me, you bitch. Don't you dare speak to me? If you know how much hatred I have for and how I urge to stab you to…”Suddenly, chills ran down her spine. She could feel cold eyes on her and as her gaze turned to the side, she saw Marcel glaring at her as if telling her that one more word from her to Izabelle would lead to something else which she wouldn't obviously like. His eyes were cold as they sent
“Take her away,” Marcel ordered the four bulky policemen who weren’t smiling as they made their way towards them. “Mr. Wilson, you can’t do this to me. Please,” she pleaded. She couldn’t help but plead with Marcel for the umpteenth time that day. It still feels like a dream to her that she was going to be sent to jail at this stage of her life. She hasn’t even fulfilled her life goals yet. She has not traveled to all the places she dreamed of traveling to. Oh lord please help her so that they forgive her. “Ma’am please come with us,” the police politely asked as they didn’t want to force her just yet. She was a lady and shouldn’t be rough-handled. “I don’t want to go with you guys. Please forgive me. I promise that I won’t dare to disobey you all anymore and I won’t do stuff like this again. Please, grandfather.”Her pleadings fell on deaf ears. How she wished that they even sent her far away instead of this. Does she wish for this life for herself? Not at all. Her tears flowed as
“Rosie, let go of the baby. He has to sleep,” Izabelle persuaded her daughter. The child shook her head in disagreement as her hands tightened around the baby. “Rosie. The baby has to sleep.”The child frowned as if she was going to cry anytime soon. The family members laughed at this. She hugged the newborn baby to her chest as if he was a Barbie doll and her eyes occasionally stared at him. She wondered why the baby’s face was red and why it occasionally makes noise in its sleep. To her, the baby was cute and warm and she didn't want to let him go anytime soon to her mother who keeps asking her to let the baby be. She woke up from her sleep an hour ago and when she saw the newborn baby in his crib, she couldn't help but cry to her mommy that she wanted to carry the baby. Izabelle gave her a hand glove and nose mask before handing the baby to her and oh well, it has been so many minutes but the child had no intention of letting the baby go. All she wanted was to carry the baby ti
“Mommy, why is your face red?” Little Rosie asked, taking a sip of her milkshake. “No..nothing. Maybe it's because I just left the kitchen.”Her ridiculous answer made the child frown and Marcel chuckle. He could feel her death glare on him. Why is it so much fun teasing her? He should do this often as he loves seeing the red blush on her face. “Perhaps it's something else?”Izabelle glared at him.Her heart was leaping off her chest as he kept staring at her. She couldn't remember when was the last time that she blushed for someone. It must have been ages already and now she blushed for this man sitting astride her in all his glory. Her heart was hammering through her chest as if it wanted to burst out and she feared that he might hear it and tease her about it which she wouldn't want. “It..it's nothing. I told you already. You should eat your food and stop staring at me,” she shifted uncomfortably in her seat. How on earth was she going to eat if he kept staring at her? “I rathe
