Mr. Wright got outside and breathed out heavily. He had almost had a heart attack inside Ronald’s office. He could hear little giggles from behind him, which were coming from Mahon, but he couldn't say anything because the person in front of him looked scary.He still couldn't believe the person inside the office was Ronald. Ronald used to be scared of him, but now he could look at him in the eyes. Clara's thought came to his mind."Ronald looks fearless now. Have he seen Clara and his son and now have something against me?" Mr. Wright muttered while counting his steps so he didn't fall.Inside Ronald’s office, although he had sat well but when he stood up, it was as if his blood didn't flow to his legs. He wondered why and assumed because he had just experienced something that shocked him.He had managed to walk out of the office straight, but he could tell Ronald and Mahon noticed his shaking legs. When he got outside, he took time to catch his breath and coordinate himself. Ronald
"Good morning." Kendrick greeted Rosy first when he entered her office.Rosy had gone to R.B. Conglomerate to collect her breakfast, which Clara had prepared for her. When she got there, she met Ronald and Mahon, still giggling and laughing about Mr. Wright's facial expression.Jane, who followed Rosy in, joined them and asked for more gist from Mahon. Rosy was the only one who didn't find what they were saying very funny. She was too weak to laugh at Mr. Wright, and besides, she didn't see him herself."I wished you were here to see his face. He walked out with shaking legs." Ronald explained to Rosy as he stood up to mimic how Mr. Wright walked out."I see nothing funny with what the both of you are saying." Rosy stood her ground on what she thought."I am not surprised. What others find funny is never funny to you and what others find serious is what makes you laugh." Ronald said as he stopped telling Rosy what transpired between him and Mr. Wright.Jane was still getting the gist
"Finally, I am calling it a day," Rosy said to herself as she arranged her bag to leave.After getting back to her office, the rest of the day was a lazy one for her. She could only attend one meeting, and that was because the client was at the company already.Kendrick had given her space to rest when he saw how tired she was. He was gradually liking the jewelry team. He always had something to contribute, and he even brought an idea that would be presented to Rosy soon.Rosy was leaving early because she had promised to visit Emma, and working wasn't really on her mind. She feels this inner tiredness that outweighs the stress she has gone through.She can't explain it, but she believed she would be fine. After arranging her things, she called Ronald."I am on my way, meet me at the parking lot, I won't wait for you." She informed Ronald.Just when she was about to reach for the door, someone from outside turned the knob."Leaving?" Kendrick asked, entering inside while Rosy moved ba
"Daddy?" Lyon yelled, turning in Ronald's direction. "Did you get a teddy for Mommy?" He asked. Ronald, who was still standing beside the car, he looked at Rosy, who was trying hard to hide her laughter when Lyon asked if he also got a teddy for Clara. Ronald had planned another way to give the teddy to Clara, that's why he didn't bring it out. He looked around, and all eyes were on him as if they were waiting for his next move. While others were looking at him to see what he would do next, Rosy was laughing at him because his perfect plan had just been ruined. Ronald cleared his throat and said, "Yes, I did, but she would need to come over here to collect it." Lyon turned to Clara standing behind him, pointing to Ronald he said to Clara, "Mommy, go, Daddy said you should go over there where he is standing now." Lyon explained to Clara as if she didn't hear what Ronald said. Clara bent a little and kissed Lyon on the head. "I will do just that right away." She told him and began
"Does that mean Mommy and Daddy would be getting married soon so they can live forever?" Lyon asked."Yes. Your Mommy and Daddy will be getting married very soon. We should give them time to plan for it." Rosy quickly replied to Lyon.Aiden turned to Ronald and asked in shock, "You didn't tell me about it? Are we still friends?""We will talk about it later. For now, let's just act as if you didn't hear anything." Ronald said, giving a signal to Aiden with his eyes."We should go inside, and also, I have somewhere to go," Rosy said and walked to Lyon.She helped Lyon carry his teddy and held his hand as they walked in together while the others followed. Rosy went in to freshen up before she left. She had spent more time than expected, and Emma might get mad at her if she didn't spend enough time with her.Rosy returned to the living room and met everyone there. They were all talking happily, including Clara, while Lyon played with his teddy, and that alone gladdened Rosy's heart.At t
"I need to change my shirt, I will be back," Daniel informed Kendrick before going to the room given to him by Kendrick.Daniel had been living with Kendrick since Rosy left because Kendrick had been too scared to live in the same house with Cassandra alone. He suddenly started fearing Cassandra, aside from what happened at his study the last time, there was no other reason.Daniel immediately accepted Kendrick's offer as soon as he mentioned it to him. Kendrick had earlier told him about it, so he understood what Kendrick was going through. Kendrick has sworn never to have anything to do with Cassandra anymore and he was trying to make it clear to everyone, including Rosy.Kendrick and Daniel had just had dinner, and while they ate, Daniel's shirt got stained, so he needed to change it and return to the living room where Kendrick was so they could have a quiet evening relaxing.The past few days since Rosy became the Ceo, has not been stressful for both of them. Rosy needed less of D
"That's better." Kendrick acknowledged. He looked at Cassandra and said, "The truth will be out soon." With that, he walked to Daniel to join him."Never!" Cassandra yelled, dropping everything in her hand. "Nobody will do a DNA test with my child when he is born without my consent. There is no way I will allow that."Kendrick and Daniel ignored her screaming as they both got busy, Kendrick went back to the newspaper he was reading, and Daniel had his attention on his phone. Angry for being ignored, Cassandra walked to their front and pushed Kendrick on the shoulder."I am talking to you," Cassandra said.Kendrick raised his head, looked at her in the eyes, and looked away almost immediately. "What?" He asked."What did you say about doing a DNA test?" Cassandra asked."I have said what I have to say. If you are not okay with it, I don't care." Kendrick replied."I can never be okay with that. What do you mean by conducting a DNA test on my child? I know you are the father. Are you sa
"I would love to get an orange juice at any shop close by," Rosy informed Aiden her driver for the evening."Okay, I will pull over when I see one," Aiden said, eyes on the road.Aiden was tired of watching the two ladies talk and leave him behind. He kept hoping and praying time would run very fast so he could tell Emma they had to leave.Despite his prayers, time was slow, and when he couldn't take it anymore, he told Emma that Rosy had to go home because she had a difficult day, and Emma bought the idea immediately.While Rosy spoke heartily with Emma laughing her heart out, he wished he was the one Rosy was discussing with and laughing. Every time he tries to tell himself that Rosy is married but his heart doesn't want to follow.Because of his heart, he believed something would happen that would make Rosy his. He might not know what it would be yet, but he had a strong conviction. Their journey home has been quiet till Rosy broke it.Aiden saw a shop where Rosy could get orange j

“Wifey, we need to talk when I get back tonight, please stay awake.” Rosy had read the text Kendrick sent to her.Her heart clenched as those exact words brought back memories of the past. She began to panic unlike in the past when she was relaxed.It was the same words Kendrick had texted her back then and when he returned, he informed her about Cassandra carrying his child.“Could history be repeating itself?” Rosy asked herself.The babies began to cry and she quickly attended to them. They soon stopped crying and slept off quietly. She stood beside their bed watching them as they slept.For her, she has achieved a lot but the babies sleeping in front of her were her greatest achievement and she doesn't regret keeping them.The babies were already five months, and it hadn't been easy for her but she had told herself she was going to enjoy every bit of the process and be so involved in their growth.“Maam, do you need anything?” The house help specifically assigned to assist her tak
It was Lyon’s birthday, everyone had been preparing for it because the last few weeks had been very peaceful just like the Browns had always wanted and dreamt of.Every board member has begun to act right. Those who supported Mr. Wright then and were involved in some illegal dealings have gone to Ronald to apologize.Everything was more than normal and Rosy and Ronald loved it. After giving the company to Kendrick, Rosy has spent more time at home and she was always being visited by Clara and Emma.Emma has been out of Oxagon City but when Rosy informed her about her delivery date, she rushed down. She had told Kendrick and Ronald that she was going to be the godmother and no one dared to argue with her.A specific date was not given to Rosy so she was just expecting it to be any day while she prepared her body. Lyon on the other hand has always asked her why she was always looking tired but she continuously told him she was preparing a surprise for him.“Aunt Rosy, Why are you always
Rosy opened her eyes gently and saw Kendrick staring at her. He had been up but was enjoying the view. Rosy hadn’t rested well since everything began and finally, she had slept well and Kendrick couldn’t stop watching her.“Why are you staring at me?” Rosy asked.“You are my wife so I can stare at you as long as I want. You look very beautiful when you sleep by the way.” Kendrick said.“Thank you. Why are you up this early?” Rosy asked.“You have forgotten so soon? Dr. Fred asked us to come see the baby today.” Kendrick reminded her happily.“What baby” Rosy joined her brows together, confused.“Wifey, you are pregnant, have you forgotten?” Kendrick said.Rosy sat up and then touched her stomach, “I thought I had given birth. Argh, it was just a dream.” She groaned tiredly.“You then forget because you do not have a protruding tummy and I love that. Can’t wait to see the surprises on the faces of everyone when they find out you have given birth.” Kendrick said.“They sure will be surp
“How do you feel about yourself now?” Psychologist Hope asked Cassandra.“Better than when I was brought into the hospital,” Cassandra replied.“Your urges for sex?” She asked.“I can control it now. I didn’t fall for Mr. Wright when he came that last time, I even had the mind to tell him to walk out. I was surprised I could do that.” Cassandra explained happily.“What about what he did to you?”“I have forgiven him. He did that because of his selfish reasons and I just hope he gets to meet a psychologist like you to help him too.” Cassandra answered.Psychologist Hope signed and said, “I am very glad you have healed from everything he has done to you and everything you have gone through. Today is your last session and I will continue to be in touch with you.”“Don’t forget Cassandra, I will always be here to help you when you need help.” Psychologist Hope said.“I won’t, thank you,” Cassandra said as they hugged.Max had carried the baby and they were both waiting for her out. It was
“It’s the biggest fashion show in Oxagon City and there are a lot of models here, including popular and up-and-coming. How do you feel meeting a lot of models today?” The lady hosting the red carpet asked Clara who was still hiding her identity.“I am so happy right now. This is my first time attending this fashion show because the last time I was supposed to come, something happened and I couldn’t but I am so happy to be here today.” She said.“That's so great to hear. You know, you came into the limelight a few months ago and you have gotten a lot of fans now and like we all know, there would be awards to be given today, if I may ask, what category do you think you would be nominated in?” The host asked.“Well, I don’t know as that is left for the judges and my fans to decide,” Clara answered.“Oh, that's an answer I didn’t expect. So the last one, who introduced you to modelling?” The host asked.“If I can clearly remember, no one did. I have loved models and always watched them si
It has been weeks after Mr. Wright was arrested and the investigation is still going on the issue has been taken to court as more things in which Mr. Wright was involved and was exposed including those Rosy and Ronald didn’t know about. Everything started when the police had put it on the news and Mr. Wright was recorded. Javier’s mom and a few other people he had forcefully collected their lands came. “We want our properties first before he would go to prison.” They had continuously echoed outside the police station. When the police couldn’t take it anymore and the President was so angry about them just finding out, he ordered that Mr. Wright give them their properties. He had refused at first but then his lawyer informed him of the effect of what he was doing and the situation he was in already. The properties were returned peacefully and after that day, Mr. Wright was tagged the country's bad man because the crimes he was being sued for were much. Day in and day out, he goes to
“Everything I planned failed, why?”Mr. Wright was at his house inside his room. He has gotten to the height of everything and has been wondering why all of his plans failed. After he left the Brown Mansion, he got information that Madam Kate was at Oxagon Hospital.Still angry at what she did to him by not giving him the box Reggie gave to her, he matched there under pretence. The nurses who only knew him to be a staff of R.B. and Madam Kate who once worked for the Brown family allowed him in.They had thought he must have come to see her just like Rosy and Ronald. Madam Kate was the only one in the ward and she had just finished eating when he got there. As soon as Madam Kate saw him, she began to scream.“What do you want from me? Why are you here? How did you find me.” Madam Kate yelled.“I didn’t come for anything, I only came to see how you were doing since it’s been a long time since we saw each other.” Mr. Wright said.“Get out of this hospital, we were never friends from the
“I am sorry Ronald, but Mr. Wright has been after me all these while and I had to go into hiding.” Elias dropped to the floor crying. “I don’t know how he got to find out about you getting to me but I am not surprised he did.” He wiped his tears and looked at Ronald.Elias touched Ronald all over his body and asked, “How have you been and how did you survive? I saw on the news that you were involved in an accident and were in a coma. I could tell it has something to do with Mr. Wright.” Elias said.“I am fine. I survived it even when Mr. Wright tried to end my life, I still survived and since then, it has been from one battle to another with him.” Ronald informed him.“Mr. Wright had been after me since your accident and for a while, I didn’t see his men around till recently when I began to notice I was being followed. Are they working with you?” Elias pointed to the door referring to Oswald and Javier.Ronald nodded, “Yes. I instructed them to find you and bring you here because I ne
