"You should be at the jewelry department by now and only come when the Ceo needs you. Why are you still here?" One of the board members who had come to welcome Rosy asked Kendrick when he got to the door."I was discussing with the Ceo, but I have to stop when you people came, I have to leave now," Kendrick replied calmly with a hint of anger in his tone."Hmm. Don't forget, just for a week and then you shouldn't be seen around the Ceo anymore." Another member said. "Why can't I? I am still a board member, or am I not anymore?" Kendrick asked, his brow raised."You still are. We need to see the Ceo now, so please leave." The first man said, sensing danger and so quickly wanted to dismiss Kendrick."See the Ceo for what? I can't remember her telling the four of you to see her after the meeting." Kendrick said, pointing at them."We came to see her for a reason, which is not your concern. You should leave now. We can't see her in your presence." The first man yelled at Kendrick."I don
"I can't hear you," Rosy said into the phone, in a call with Jane.After her intimate time with Kendrick inside her new office, one she wished would happen again, they had only rested a little before Jane's call came in.Rosy answered the call but she couldn't hear Jane at all. She moved away from the chair in the office where she sat, resting her head on Kendrick's lap, and walked to the window side.Kendrick still had his eyes shut and Rosy thought he must have dozed off because they didn't say anything while they rested."I got a message from the State," Jane said."What was it about?" Rosy asked almost in a whisper as she looked around to see if Kendrick was up not wanting to disturb him."They want to meet with you regarding the ATU news that leaked and the outcome of the visit to your house," Jane explained."Okay. I was expecting that. Any other message?" Rosy asked."Not really, the others are directed to the Ceo of R.B. Conglomerate." Jane pointed at and Rosy nodded with unde
"How was your first day at work?" Rosy asked.She had gone to pick Ronald up from R.B. since he didn't go in his car and getting a cab would be very risky because Mr. Wright might want to do something funny now he knows Ronald is awake.After her lunch with Kendrick at the office, he told her about the company and what she needed to know. She had told him she would be keeping Daniel as her PA which Kendrick accepted."Not bad but baaddddd," Ronald said emphasizing the bad"I didn't expect it to be good anyways, and tomorrow might be worse, don't forget that," Rosy said, focusing on the road."I know. Experienced it before when I took over from you." Ronald reminded her."Always complaining then, not like you have changed though." Rosy teased him."I have you alone to complain to. We have no idea where Mom is and Dad is dead, just you left." Ronald added."I know. But now, I don't think you have just me anymore, there is Clara and Lyon.""Rosy, can we not talk about her." Ronald threw
"Let's talk," Ronald said, still holding Clara by the hand. Clara looked at him from head to toe, shook her head, and said, "I am sorry, Mr. Brown, but I am not in any mood for a discussion." "But you were discussing with Rosy before she left." Ronald pointed out. Clara smiled for a second, and her face became plain almost immediately. "I can't believe you don't know the difference between discussing with someone and welcoming someone." Clara mocked him. Pointing at himself with disbelief showing all over his face, Ronald said, "I know the difference, but right now, I am not thinking straight. Please let's talk." Clara smiled and then forcefully removed her hands from Ronald's grip. She looked at him in the eyes and bluntly said, "You don't deserve time for us to talk alone. I am too busy for that." Clara smirked afterward and walked away, leaving Ronald in a daze, still trying to process what he had just heard. After a few minutes, he still wasn't able to get what Clara meant b
"What?!" Ronald exclaimed in disbelief. "Clara, it hasn't gotten to that. We can fix it." Ronald said."Fix what? If it was fixable, why haven't we fixed it all these while? I am tired already." Clara yelled, and then a scoff escaped her lips, and then she said, "I am still very young, I can get a man who will love me and will not want to let me go instead of suffering here, hoping you will change, but you are not.""Clara, I have given you my words, I will change. It's a promise, and I don't break my promises. I love you, I do, and I promise to make it up to you for all these years, you and Lyon." Ronald remarked."It's too late, Ronald. All I want is for Lyon to get well fully, then I would leave. You can take care of him from there." Clara informed Ronald.Ronald shook his head. He was taking in a lot of information that was harmful to him, and he didn't know how to react, he kept shaking his head over and over again, finding it hard to believe Clara was giving up so fast.When he
"Let's go prepare the table for dinner," Clara said, her face suddenly brimming with a smile."Can I go change my clothes first?" Ronald asked, rolling his eyes."I would have allowed you to, but you rolled your eyes, so no," Clara said, laughing.Ronald playfully raised the upside of a corner of his lips while blinking his eyes continuously, which Clara found funny, making her laugh more than usual. Clara's body shook as she laughed, and she didn't realize tears had welled up at the bottom of her eyes."Do I look funny?" Ronald asked with the corner of his lips still up."Hahaha," Clara laughed more and said, "You not only look funny, you look like a clown. Come on, let's go, everyone will be waiting for us.""Okay, but promise me I will go have a change of clothes before everyone starts eating. I had a very annoying day at work today, so I need to wash it off," Ronald suggested."I don't buy that idea. You could take t
"You look nervous," Jane said to Rosy. "Do you want a glass of water?""Is it that obvious?" Rosy asked, and Jane nodded. "Really?" Rosy asked again, her eyes almost popping out."Yes, it's showing all over you. You should sit down while we wait," Jane suggested."I wonder what they are going to say. I messed up," Rosy said, biting her fingers while walking to and fro.They were at the state building. They had earlier sent her a message, and the meeting with her was to start in a few minutes. Rosy didn't know how to react to that.The state had high hopes for her before they made her the chairman of the ATU body. Although she passed the test, if they had wanted to give it to someone else, they could, but they gave it to her because they trusted her.Moreover, she has been taking care of R.B. Conglomerate since the death of her father, and the conglomerate has been doing well, putting the ATU body into her hands won't be a big deal.Rosy had arrived earlier than the time, and Jane came
"Concerning the media getting to find out, it was Mr. Wright's doing. I asked a media house owner, and he told me it was Mr. Wright. That was how the issue leaked," Rosy said."So when they came to your house, did they see wines?" One of the speakers asked."Yes, they did. My wine was finished for a long time, and the wines I ordered were VIP wines produced by companies in Hearton City. They couldn't bring it immediately I ordered for them, but they eventually brought it before the ATU members came to my house," Rosy said covering up what truly happened."Okay then, you can go outside for some time while we discuss having heard your part," the president said.Rosy nodded as she began to walk out while Jane followed her. They returned to where they were waiting before they were called in earlier. Rosy was really happy with the way she spoke even though she was not certain what they would decide."I must say, you did great, more than expected. I was thinking you would stutter with the w
