“Here is the Divorce Agreement from the family lawyer,” Rosy slammed the document on the table in front of Ken who was in the lounge.
“There is no need to do all this Rosy, you won't be getting a divorce, you are still my lawfully wedded wife,” Ken said calmly while he continued checking the files he was attending to before she walked in.
“Ken, you claim I am your lawfully wedded wife yet you couldn't give me my respect? Huh?”
“See Rosy, I have a lot of things to do unlike you who walk around the whole house all day.”
“That I am jobless? Is that what you are trying to say?” Rosy’s voice was mixed with tears as she didn't expect that from Ken.
“Am I wrong? Do you do anything all day besides cooking and doing the laundry? Tell me, Rosy, I want to hear it,” he relaxed very well on the chair looking at Rosy whose tears were on the verge of falling off.
“Ken, why do you hate me so much,” she said as the tears fell freely, “I always respected you and did everything expected of a wife but you have never seen it, why Ken? Why?”
“Rosy, forget about the divorce and just move on as though nothing happened.”
“Ken everything happened and so long I didn't lose my memory I can't live as if nothing happened.”
“What do you want me to do? Help you lose your memory so we can live in peace or what?”
“Divorce me Ken, don't you get it? I can't live in the same house with your pregnant mistress, please just sign the divorce papers and let me go,” she pleaded, joining her hands together.
“You want me to sign the divorce papers?”
“Yes, please.”
“Okay,” he collected the document from the table and flipped through it, “I can see you signed your part already,” he nodded, turned the paper then tore it to pieces, “See, I just signed it in a better way,” blowing the pieces into the air.
“Kendriiiick,” she screamed, holding her chest as she felt a sharp pain hit her making her go weak while she held a chair close to her for support.
“I have told you Rosy Brown, no one is leaving this marriage,” he reminded her coldly.
“What's going on here honey?”
It was Cassandra, a slender-looking and very light-skinned girl with a very black eye and brown body curl hair, she looked so lively and energetic and she carried herself with so much pride and elegance.
She walked towards Ken and she planted a kiss on his lips.
“Is nothing, sweetheart, are you okay?” Ken asked her with so much affection in his voice.
“I am doing fine, I heard screams inside so I came out to check what was going on,” she cleaned the sweat drop on Ken's face with her hands.
“You shouldn't have bothered, everything is under control,” he kissed her forehead.
They were discussing as if Rosy wasn't there and that broke her more.
“He has never spoken to me softly with so much love and affection in his eyes but here he is doing it to another woman,” she murmured to herself.
Rosy looked at him, he was the man of her dreams, he was handsome, with blonde hair, small round eyes, and a hairy skin that matched his yellow skin tone. He was tall and his smile was captivating.
He was every woman's dream, although she liked him on their first meeting, she didn't have the courage to talk with him. Eventually, when his mom talked to her about getting married to her son, she felt her dreams coming through and that was how they got here.
“Honey, I was moving my things to your room and moving your ex-wife’s things to the other room when I heard the noise, I will…”
“You did what?” He turned pale when he heard what Cassandra had said.
“I was moving her things out and taking mine in, did I do anything wrong?” Ken’s face went plain.
“She is still my wife Cass and you have no right to do that without informing me first,” he spoke to her calmly while cupping her face.
“Oh, I am sorry baby, I had no idea.”
“Is fine, I don't want you stressing yourself, tell the servants to move her things back and take yours to the room prepared for you,” he brushed the hair on her face while she nodded and left.
“Ken, how do you want me to cope with all these? You have never spoken to me that way, never have you shown me what it means to be loved,” she broke down in tears.
“I have nothing to say to you. You should be happy I didn't divorce you and I didn't throw your things out of the house.”
“But I want to go, I want to leave here, I am tired of the disrespect.”
“Go get busy with something and you won't think about anything anymore,” he packed the documents, “Don't bother bringing any divorce agreement again, they will all end the same way,” he left her standing there.

“Everything will be fine, just give him time.”
Rosy has been at Emma’s place all day. Emma Pritchard was her friend, they both met at Ruserick Enterprise during her internship, and since then they have been close.
“I never did him wrong, I always loved him and respected him as my husband, I can't stay in the same house with her, I have asked him for a divorce but he has refused.”
She was complaining bitterly to her friend who was comforting her, having soaked her dress with tears.
“Let's go out, to the beach or anywhere so your mood can lighten before you go home.”
“That’s a good idea, I need to get the thought of them off my head.”
After a long drive, they got to their destination, which was a restaurant that had a game arcade attached to it.
While they were waiting for their orders, having random discussions someone spoke from behind.
“I can see you are having fun,” it was a female voice.
They both turned to see who the voice belonged to, it was Cassandra.
“Nice meeting you,” she stretched her hands towards Emma for a handshake and Emma reciprocated not knowing who she was.
“How can I help you?” Rosy asked with a little harsh tone.
“Well, I am Cassandra Lucas, Kendrick’s Pregnant soon-to-be wife,” she ignored Rosy's question, her attention was still on Emma, the beautiful blonde woman with fine almond eyes.
Emma got very mad on hearing that from Cassandra, “You are just his mistress carrying his illegitimate child, that means, you are just his baby mama,” Emma flared up.
“Then your friend here will be his ex-wife soon, watch me,” she smiled sheepishly.
“If that will happen, why has he refused to sign the divorce papers?” Cassandra was shocked when she heard that from Rosy.
“He is just waiting for the right time.”
She was trying to defend herself because she thought Kendrick must have asked his wife for a divorce before telling her to move in, that was the reason she did as if she hadn't seen her the other day when she was discussing with Kendrick.
“Then let him hurry up with it,” Rosy spoke in a firm voice.
“I will pass your message across to him,” Cassandra smiled as she got the information she wanted, she was not welcomed by the two women.
“Well, I don't think there is a need for you to pass the message as I have done that already,” Emma said as Cassandra’s smile turned dry.
“If you say so then,” her voice got stiff, “Well, I came to get some food for myself, my unborn baby, and Kendrick as well,” she caressed her tummy lightly.
“Mistresses are always quick to do that, do have a nice day,” Emma waved at her.
Cassandra knew she had better leave than continue the discussion with Emma as Emma wasn't hiding the fact that she didn't like her.
“Emma, you haven't changed,” Rosy laughed so hard that she forgot her initial mood.
“She deserves whatever I tell her. I see why you keep saying you won't be able to live in that house with her.”
The waitresses brought their orders, they devoured their food in a hurry as they had waited a long time for their food to arrive while they continued to talk about other things.
It was the weekend as usual Rosy was writing a list of the things the servant needed to get for grocery shopping.“Maam the peanut butter has just a little quantity left in the container,” the servant brought to her notice.“Alright then, I will add that to the list, what about my special ingredients, will they be enough to last me till the next grocery shopping?”“Maam, emm the new madam threw them away,” the servant told Rosy shaking.“She did what? But why?” Rosy stopped what she was doing, giving her full attention to the maid to hear what she had to say.“She said the smell makes her stomach upset and that it looks poisonous,” the maid added.“Wow, did you tell her it belongs to me?” she pointed at herself emphasizing the ‘me’.“Yes, ma'am I did but she became aggressive so I have to obey her.”“Don't worry, I will write it in the list, when the groceries get delivered make sure to keep it in a tightly closed container so she won't smell it and throw up.” she continued checking t
Kendrick was having his bath when Rosy walked into their bedroom, she changed into her powdered blue lingerie, exposing some parts of her body, revealing how endowed she was although she was slim.Just when she finished changing into that, Ken entered the room, his hair still wet. He paused for a few seconds when he saw her. He was lost seeing her like this.“You haven’t dressed like this in a while, what do you have in mind?” he inquired from her.“I just need a cozy night's rest that's all,” she jumped on the bed, covering herself.“Hmm, I see,” he nodded, walking towards her side of the bed, “ How about I make it more cozy for you? Huh?” he made a knowing smirk.Despite Ken not respecting her as his wife, he has always fulfilled his duty to her as her husband after that, he turns cold towards her again.“Before then, can I tell you something about Cassandra?”“Hey Wify, don't ruin the mood with Cassandra, let's just enjoy ourselves,” he shut her up with his index finger over her li
When Rosy woke up, she couldn't find Ken in bed anymore, she checked the time and it wasn't morning yet and he never woke her up after she slept off.She went to the bathroom to check if he was there but he wasn't, she checked the study, the living room, the kitchen and everywhere she could think of but he wasn't there.She passed Cassandra’s room and she heard voices, it was the voice of a woman whose moan filled the room. She pressed her ear on the door.“I will always choose you over and over again,” Ken said to Cassandra.“What about her, ahh…” a moan escaped her lips.“She is still here because the family won't accept a divorce.”“Faster and deeper sweet, let's forget about the barren fool,” she laughed loudly.“That's my girl, that's why I like you, always in the mood. Now spread those legs so wide, my toy,” He commanded her.“Just to make you happy, I will do it, sweet.” She continued moaning loudly.‘Kendrick lied to me,’ Rosy murmured to herself. Her legs were getting weak so
“Doctor please, save me. Please nothing should happen to my child,” Cass pleaded honestly.“I am trying my best, but for now your child is fine just that the alcohol you took was too strong and that has caused the child to be uncomfortable which leads to the throwing up and the collapsing.”The slim, beautiful female doctor on duty and in charge of her, explained to her.“Doctor when the father of my child comes, please don't tell him about the alcohol, I beg of you.”“What then should I tell him? That you just fainted due to stress or what?” The confused doctor inquired.“It is simple, just tell him I should be given some time to rest and not be stressed.”Cassandra was still talking when the doctor quickly asked her, “What if he asked me about what happened that made you collapse? What should
Rosy was in The R.B. Mansion, here lies a lot of her past. Everything was still the same, just the servants taking care of the mansion.Ronald was the only person who was living here since she got married but now he is in the hospital.She was just walking around, and she remembered when her father was still alive and as the heir to the family business, he always took her along and taught her everything about the business.The making of wine she is very good at today was something she learned from her father which has earned her the administrator of the Alcohol Trade Union.Everything in the mansion brings back memories. As she walked into the study. Everything in it brought memories of her past. It was the only place she felt happy in the past after her father's death.It was those quiet times she spent in this study that brought the idea about the wine recipe, which till now is still the best wine and has earned R.B. Conglomerate more popularity in the winemaking industry, and she t
Chapter 8Rosy got to the hospital within seconds when Daniel called her that Kendrick was at the hospital. She couldn't wait to hear what happened to him.Yes, she hates him so much right now but she can't watch him die, he is still her husband. She knows although she doesn't want to set her eyes on him, there is still a part of her that cares so much about him.She meets Daniel outside Kendrick’s room pacing to and fro. She couldn't hold herself from asking him immediately about what happened.“Daniel, what happened? Why is he here?”“I don't know, I was outside Madam Cassandra’s room waiting for him when he came out and slumped. I don't know what transpired between them inside.”Daniel quickly explained what he knew about the situation. Poor Daniel, he has experienced a lot of things today and the shock was just so obvious on his face.“Has the doctor told you anything?” She sat down.“No ma'am, they are still inside with him.” His voice and his whole body visibly shaking.“What ab
It was the annual meeting of R.B. where all the board members, executives, shareholders, and heads of departments meet to address the issues they have observed over some time, discuss their next business strategy, and share ideas for a new product.Everyone was seated already and waiting for Mr. Wright because they weren't expecting their Ceo Rosy to come as usual and Mr. Wright had taken it by himself to organize the meeting although she had put the CFO, Mr. Charlie in charge.She waited to get a beep from Mr. Charlie, which meant Mr. Wright had entered before she went in, taking everyone by surprise.Buzz Buzz her phone beeps. “Let's go,” she told her PA, Jane.Jane opened the door slowly catching everyone's attention. Rosy walked in majestically. She was wearing a black ladies’ suit that fitted her so well and showed she was ready to carry out her duty in the right way.“Good day everyone,” she greeted.Everyone in the conference room began to murmur to themselves and each other.“
Chapter 10Rosy was dressed in a powdered blue one shoulder cut out, low back tight bodycon dinner gown. The gown revealed some parts of her boobs, her back, her waist as well as her shoulder. It looked like a two piece dress but it was one and for those who know fashion, this was a limited design.Her hair was packed in a loose, rumpled braid which shows she was free-spirited tonight and ready to vibe to whatever happens. Her light makeup made her almond hers so obvious, she painted her lips with a bright red color which revealed more of her beauty.Kendrick wore a black suit. When he first saw Rosy at home, he couldn't believe this lady was his wife. Rosy had never dressed so beautifully like this before, she was always in casual wear.It was Ruserick Enterprises anniversary and they were celebrating it at the company event hall.Rosy refused to attend at first but she changed her mind, something interesting might take place, she wouldn't want to get the gist from the net when she c
“Welcome, Aunt Rosy; I miss you.” Lyon, who was the first to see Rosy, welcomed her with a hug.When Rosy left, Lyon had been alone all day as no one played with him. He was tired of speaking with his parrot and had left it inside his room while he stayed in the living room waiting for no one.Ronald and Clara were both resting in their room, and Javier and Oswald were both working on something that was taking a lot of their time because they didn’t come out for breakfast.“Oh my little Champ, how are you?” Rosy hugged him and kissed him on his head.“I am fine but have been alone since you left. Everyone is busy, and no one has time for me.” Lyon complained, looking pitiful.Rosy felt a sharp pain in her heart when Lyon made his complaint. Lyon was just a child but was forced to live the life only an adult could live. No friends, he doesn’t go to school and he doesn’t go out freely to maybe see what the world looks like.“Very soon, Little Champ, you will have a lot of friends that y
“I still need an explanation of how you pulled all these with Emma,” Rosy whispered before the waiter got to them.Kendrick laughed when he looked at Rosy, and her brow was arched. They made their orders, and when the waiter left to get it, Kendrick looked at Rosy, and again, she had arched her brow.Kendrick bent his head and chuckled lightly, but when Rosy cleared her throat, which showed she was serious, Kendrick then decided to open up.“I apologize again for not asking you out on this date directly, which is the appropriate way, but then, I wanted it to be a surprise. We have been close for a while now as working partners and as a couple, but I did mess up before, and I don’t want to act as if that never happened because I do not know if you have forgiven me. So please, allow me to ask, have you forgiven me?” Kendrick asked.Kendrick has a lot to unveil, and before he can freely do that, he needs to be very sure that Rosy has forgiven him, else he is wasting his time because what
"Aunt Rosy, are you going to work today?” Lyon had entered Rosy’s room to ask her about her activity for the day.“No Champ, you have somewhere in mind you want me to accompany you to?” Rosy asked casually because she wasn’t expecting Lyon to have anywhere to go.“No, I just want to stay with you the whole day and tell you everything that happened while I was with Grandpa, Grandma, and Aunt Grace,” Lyon said looking around to be sure no one was eavesdropping on their conversation.“Lyon, are you serious when you said the whole day?” Rosy asked, her eyes almost popping out, to which Lyon nodded.Rosy had no idea that her little nephew could be a gist partner, but since she knows, then she was going to make good use of it.“You don’t want me to stay with you the whole day? Then I can stay for half a day.” Lyon said, advertising his skills.“Of course, I have missed you so much, and I would really love to enjoy your company for the whole day, but I will be going out later in the day, I h
"Hmmm... Finally, back to Oxagon." Clara and Ronald said together after they stepped out of the plane.When they left the resort and were heading to Diavolo airport, they were already missing their experience there, especially the memories they created. Last night after dinner was packed with fun for them.They both ate themselves out till they were tired. The staff and the management of the resort bid them goodbye and also presented a gift to them. They were also taken to the airport by the resort driver and security."I wish we didn't have to leave so soon," Clara said.Ronald walked to her and wrapped his arm around her waist, "We are going back there again, and I promise, we will be spending more days there.""I know you will do that, but I miss Diavolo," Clara said, teary-eyed."Should we go back and then you will forget about being a model?" Ronald threatened although he was only joking.Clara jumped back, her lips slightly apart and her eyeballs almost popping out. "That's a cr
When Rosy had fully rested, she woke up, and to her surprise, she had been sleeping for hours, and it was almost closing time.Kendrick was still there with her, gently stroking her hair and also playing a song that helped her sleep more. After a few minutes of being up and trying to process how she slept for that long, it dawned on her that she hadn't met with any clients.With her sleepy eyes, Rosy turned to Kendrick, who was looking at her while trying to massage his thigh with his hand, and said, "Why did I sleep for this long?""I also don't have any idea why, but all I can say is that you over-stressed yourself yesterday, and the night rest was not enough for your body, and that brings me to telling you again, you should rest more," Kendrick explained and advised."Okay, I will. What about the clients I was supposed to meet?" Rosy asked."About the client," Kendrick said with a small smile on his face and then continued, "They didn't come. Each of them sent a text with one excus
“But Mine, that’s unfair. Don’t I deserve special treatment also? My sister had favored you more all through our stay here; did you both plan it?” Ronald asked with a frown on his face.He was angry and jealous of the fact that everything Rosy planned, while they stayed in the resort was for Clara’s happiness and not his. Yes, he was happy because Clara was happy and didn’t take it to heart, but hearing of the special dressing treatment, he was pained.Ronald was still finding it difficult to believe what Rosy had planned. If the planning of their stay was done by someone else, he wouldn’t be angry or sad, although he might be jealous, but Rosy knew all his likes and dislikes but didn’t consider any of them.“Firstly, I didn’t know she had all these in mind, and secondly, I am the newest member of the Brown family. I will be her only sister-in-law, and I also consider her needs too, so she is just treating me right.” Clara said.“I see. Now that you are a member of the Brown family, I
“Chairman, please can I have a word with you? Please.” Mr. Piper requested, almost going down on his knees to plead with Rosy.Rosy rolled her eyes and turned to Mr. Piper who was still pleading. She stared at him for a few minutes and ushered him in without using words and Mr. Piper understood as he followed her into the company.They got to Rosy’s office but Kendrick was there already waiting for Rosy with a table set with different dishes. Rosy offered him a seat in the small space in her office before the main office and went in to meet and speak with Kendrick.“Hey Honey,” Rosy said.“Hello Wifey,” Kendrick responded.Kendrick didn’t realize immediately that Rosy had called him a pet name for the first time in a long time, but after he responded, he realized it, and with a smile on his face and a finger pointed at himself, he asked Rosy.“Wifey, did you just call me honey?”“Yes, I did. Should I take it back?” Rosy asked.“Hell no!” Kendrick almost yelled and continued, “I am jus
Good morning, Wifey, still in bed?” Kendrick asked while on an early morning call with Rosy.Rosy had woken up earlier but had returned to sleep because she didn’t feel like getting up. The previous day was very stressful for her and it seems her body was yet to get the amount of rest it needed.She had slept a little longer after she woke up when Kendrick’s call came in. Rosy groaned when the shrill sound from her phone speaker woke her up. She checked the time because she thought and felt she had not slept for long when Kendrick’s call came in.Immediately she saw the time, she was shocked because after she woke up, she had slept for another three hours before Kendrick called but to her, it felt like she had barely slept. Still feeling sleepy, Rosy answered the call and from the lazy and sleepy sound she was making, Kendrick could tell she was still sleeping.“I woke up earlier but was still too tired to get up, so I slept back,” Rosy explained to Kendrick as she answered his questi
“Hey love, are you ready?” Clara asked Ronald, who had been getting ready.It was their sixth day in Diavolo, and Ronald had promised to take her shopping to get the things she needed for the fashion show and also get a few things for the Allens, Lyo,n, and Rosy. Ronald had woken up earlier but was attending to some issues of the company. All the meetings Rosy had attended on his behalf had turned out well, and he was so happy about it. Despite Rosy’s instruction that he focus on Clara so they can enjoy their stay, Ronald still begged Mahon to send him those files he had signed from Diavolo.While Ronald was busy talking with a client on the phone, Clara got ready and began writing a list of the stuff she would get for herself and everyone. At one point, she went back into the room to see if Ronald was getting ready, which he wasn’t.Clara felt disappointed, but Ronald apologized and promised not to receive any other call when he was done with the one he had put on hold just to talk
