“Sir, your next meeting is with Mr. Blake, and it is scheduled for one pm,” Daniel informed Kendrick.Kendrick had just left a meeting. Mr. Blake was a potential client, and Kendrick has been looking up to meeting him. Mr. Blake wanted a customized jewelry set for his wife and kids.He had earlier approached Ruserick for it but later had a change of mind when, after Ruserick had put their bracelet on sale and made a huge sale, R.B. laughed theirs the next day and suppressed Ruserick's sale.Kendrick had constantly reached out to Mr. Blake's secretary to plead with him, and eventually, he agreed when it was getting too much.“Oh yes, Mr. Blake. Where is it?” Kendrick asked, his voice carrying a sense of anticipation.“His secretary said at the Kitchen Restaurant. I sent it to your email after I called you yesterday.” Daniel informed him.“You did? But I didn't get any message.” Kendrick removes his phone from the inner pocket of his suit to check for himself.He opened his mail applica
Rosy had summoned up the courage to go inform Clara and Lyon about the scheduled surgery. To her surprise, Lyon didn't look sad, rather, he was happy.He had told her he couldn't wait to come outside and prove Mr. Wright wrong and make Ronald proud. Although he requested one thing from Rosy.He requested to see Ronald before he went into the operating room, and Rosy granted his wish.Rosy kept turning all night, scared of the outcome of the surgery. When it was morning, she was the first to leave the house.“Aunt Rosy, I have been up waiting for you,” Lyon informed her happily.Lyon was more excited to see his father than to have the surgery.“I am so sorry. I had no idea you were up early. Are you prepared?” Rosy asked him.“Of course. But first, I want to see my daddy!” He exclaimed both hands lifted in excitement.Seeing how happy he was, Rosy got scared. She had heard situations where relatives went into the operating room very happy and never made it out, and people have claimed
Rosy got more scared when the nurse finally met with her. She grabbed Rosy's hand and took her to another corner far from Clara.With a sudden outburst of tears accompanied by a bright smile, the nurse announced. “Sir Ronald is finally awake.”Rosy heard a shrill sound in her ears, her hands suspended in the air while her body became still. She tried to process what she had just heard, but it seemed her brain had stopped working.“What did you say?” Rosy asked to confirm what she had heard.“Sir Ronald is awake. I called a nurse to check on him since Dr. Fred was in the operating room.” The private nurse said.She had to call a nurse because she wasn't told to do any medical checkup on Ronald, only to clean him up and check for any tiny changes.“And what was their response?” Rosy asked eagerly.“The nurse informed me that he was okay, but since he is a VIP patient, I will have to wait for Dr. Fred to come to check him personally and make a diagnosis and prescriptions.” The private nu
As soon as Rosy exited the door, she came in contact with Dr. Fred. He was matching towards Ronald's room, Rosy looked frightened.“Rosy, are you okay? Where is Ronald?” He asked.In a whisper, Rosy replied, “He is inside, and okay. I know he is going to ask you about Lyon. Tell him you have no idea who he is.”“Why?”Dr. Fred asked puzzled.Rosy scratched her head, thinking of a good excuse, and finally came up with one, “He just woke up, and Lyon, too, is still weak because of the surgery. I will explain everything to him when Lyon is strong.”Dr. Fred was about to give her a response when she remembered something, “Besides, Ronald just woke up, I have discussed a little about the company with him, which dampened his spirit, talking about Lyon will be too much for his first day being awake,” She smiled nervously.Rosy wasn't sure if what she was saying made sense, but she just wanted Dr. Fred to keep his mouth shut when he was with Ronald. She knew Ronald, he could ask the same quest
With Kendrick on his knees, then it was going to be a long night with a series of pleading. She entered anyway and went straight to the wardrobe, then to the washroom and back.When she finally climbed the bed, she covered herself and shut her eyes immediately. She was smiling inwardly because Kendrick didn't make any attempt to stop her.To her, she has escaped, not knowing that was the exact time Kendrick was waiting for. Kendrick crawled with his knees to her, and the next thing she heard was.“Rosy, one week is gone,” Kendrick said, his voice carrying a pain that could not be hidden.Rosy remained still, maybe if she didn't move, he would go away, but Kendrick was not one to give up easily. He shifted the cover, carried one of Rosy's hands, and began to massage.Not comfortably, but in a way that will make her not fall asleep. He kept trying to bend her fingers so it would make a sound, and even if it did, he still wouldn't stop.Rosy couldn't take it anymore as she finally opened
Rosy woke up to find Kendrick still sleeping beside her on the bed. Carefully, she crawled out of the bed and into the washroom, took her bath, dressed up, and left the house quietly.She had hoped Lyon would see her when he got up so she could give him answers to his questions. She got to the hospital and first went to see Lyon.Lyon and Clara were still sleeping when he got there but Javier was awake watching them while he was working. She thanked him as she went to Ronald's room next.Ronald was up already and having a discussion with Oswald, she could see both of them smiling heartily as they talked. Rosy was surprised to see Oswald smile like that.All through the times she had spent with Oswald, he had never for once smiled, not even by mistake. Rosy entered, and Oswald stood up to greet her as he offered her a seat.“So, what are you people discussing? It seems it's something interesting.” Rosy asked.“You are being nosy without giving me a kiss.” Ronald eyed Rosy who had sat d
Although Rosy was having issues in her marriage, she never thought of removing her wedding ring, not even Kendrick removed his.So when Aiden asked her out, she quickly waved it at him to remind him that she was still legally married, but Ronald’s words got her confused.She didn't tell him about her marriage, so where did he get that conviction from? Rosy looked from Aiden, who she was looking at initially, to Ronald, who stared at her with no remorse about what he had said, and down to Oswald, whose head was bent and his hands shaking.At once, Rosy could tell what had happened. Ronald must have pressured Oswald to tell him about her marriage, and since he was his boss, he told him with no choice.She turned to Ronald and asked him, “What was that for?”“I know everything, big sister. I hate the idea of him making you feel unloved when you have someone who genuinely loves you and would do anything for you.” Ronald said.“I never told you I wasn't loved in my marriage, did I?” Rosy a
When Rosy mentioned Clara to Ronald, he didn't know what to feel. If he should be angry, sad, or happy. He instantly got a mixed feeling. Later, when Rosy told him he could see Clara right away, he had only one question to ask her, and all through their going to where she was inside the hospital, how she had left him was a major thought. When Rosy said them, he was concerned about how many of them, but Rosy refused to say anything. He was surprised to see that Clara was not far from him. Although he had the intention to scream at her for leaving and not trying to ever reach out, he was still uncertain. Uncertain about how Clara is feeling because she was in the hospital. Uncertain if she would want to see him. He was happy Rosy walked in front of him while he tried to see what was going on above her shoulders. He didn't expect Rosy to move quickly, but when she did. He was faced with a little boy who looked exactly like him, and the little boy even called him dad. He suddenly be
