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
Kendrick has been thinking in his office. He had refused to come outside or meet with any client. Daniel tried everything he could to make him leave his office but he didn't.He had thought he would wake up to meet Rosy so he could plead with her again, perhaps she was just too tired last night.For some days now Rosy had been leaving the house very early and he couldn't place his hand on the reason, he couldn't even ask her.He keeps watching his once-loving wife turn into a woman he knows nothing about, and it hurts him. Every day, he thinks of the best way to win her back, but nothing comes to his mind.Now that Rosy had told him directly to win her heart again, how was he going to do it? Rosy doesn't give him time. She leaves the house very early and returns very late.She doesn't eat breakfast or dinner at home anymore, and that was the only way he could think of winning her heart. This is the first day and not one move has he made.He kept thinking of a way. Before he got marrie
After the family has reunited, Aiden comes back and demands an explanation, which Ronald gave him. They had breakfast right in Lyon's roomAlthough he couldn't join them, Lyon was very happy to see everyone eating together. When they were done eating, Rosy instructed Ronald to watch Clara and Lyon while she went to work.Rosy got to her office and was faced with much work. At first, she wished she could disappear, and when she reappears, the work will be gone, but things don't work that way.Quickly, she got to work, reading, giving corrections where needed, signing, and rewriting. She looked at her desk and the workload had reduced, and she was so happy.To her, a little more work, and she will be all done. She had barely continued when Jane walked in.“Someone is here to see you,” Jane said.“Nameless or faceless, which one?” Rosy asked, irritated by Jane not giving her the full details.“I am sorry ma'am. He has a name and also a face.” Jane said.“Then what are you waiting for? Sa
True to Mr. Kyle's words earlier, a date was fixed for Mr. Wright, to lay his complaints. Mr. Wright has finally got a good reason to bring Rosy down at the ATU. He was sure his complaints would make the body hate Rosy and want her to step down immediately.Mr. Piper, his cohort, has been encouraging him that with the information he has, he could bring Rosy down. When he called Kendrick earlier, his informant had told him the board sent a message to Kendrick.Without being told, he knows what the message is about. After his call to Kendrick, Mr. Wight ran to the ATU building to wait until it was time for the meeting. He wanted to be the one to welcome all the members so they would side with him.A group of five board members arrived first, and he welcomed them. They started discussing the things going on in Oxagon, which he, Mr. Wright, contributed intelligently just to show them that he knew what he was doing.More members came, and he welcomed them. He heard the sound of someone at
"Auny Rosy, please don't go, don't leave me, please." Lyon held Rosy's left leg, stopping her from walking.After Rosy announced her return to her home, Lyon had been moody and even cried at some point. Rosy didn't allow him to leave her sight, and he wasn't ready to leave her alone either.Rosy couldn't do anything because Lyon wanted her to marry him, which she had no choice but to do. Lyon slept in her arms, but when she tried to drop him on the bed, he would wake up and begin to cry.Rosy will calm him down, and he will sleep off again. They continued that way till Lyon finally slept deep, and Rosy could then arrange her things before she slept beside him.When it was morning, Rosy quickly got dressed, ready to leave because Lyon waking up would be a disaster. She got to the living room where Clara and Ronald were sadly waiting for her."But you can stay for a few more days, right?" Clara asked tears gathered in her eyes."I would have loved to, but I have been away from home for
“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
