Chapter 001 Husband's Betrayal

~Rosemary~The clock on the wall struck eleven and with that, I chewed my lower lip. I picked up my phone again and texted, "Where are you, honey? Are you all right?" It was way past closing hour, but he wasn't back home yet. I had called him numerous times, yet I hadn't heard a word from him.As I sat on the sofa in the living room, I stared blankly at the wedding picture on the wall opposite. In the picture, the smile on my face couldn't have been brighter, but my husband's smile was rather frozen.It had been two years since we got married. Although it wasn't a bed of roses, it was peaceful for the most part. Max and I barely argued. But I guess you could say it's because he was rarely at home. I only saw him sometimes in the mornings and at night.However, today was the first time he was staying out this late. Since I saw on the news that a car accident happened on the same route Max took everyday, I had been dead worried. As I took a deep breath, I felt a sharp cramp in my lower

Chapter 002 Car Accident

~Rosemary~"I see that you can still read," he said between mouthfuls. "Sign it.""What! You want to divorce me? How? Why?" I choked.Max's lips turned up with disgust. "Why are you acting so surprised, Rosemary? You are not my type. I only dated you because I was bored and you wouldn’t let me be. I should never have married you. You disgust me. So, sign that and get the fuck out of my house!"I gasped, seeing my whole world crumbling before my eyes. Sure, I didn’t look my best now: I was unable to dress up nicely at home when I was pregnant before. I chose what made me comfortable instead of making me look nice, though my body’s still kept in good shape.Was Max avoiding me because of this? But I never thought he would ask for a divorce. Since he knew that I wasn’t his type, why did he have unprotected sex with me months ago? Why did he pester me to get pregnant because his mother was asking for grandkids? For Pete's sake, I was carrying his child!"Max, is this a prank? Have you

Chapter 003 Miscarriage

~Rosemary~A beeping sound replayed in my head an annoying number of times. The air around me felt so cold that goosebumps pricked my skin.I opened my eyes slowly, only to be blinded by the light. When I opened them again, I saw a white ceiling.Where was I? Wasn't I at home? Was I lying down? Why? What happened to me?A dozen questions ran through my mind. I looked around, trying to figure out where I was. But nothing around was recognizable.Suddenly, my eyes fell on a heart rate monitor. It was what was making that annoying beeping sound. Oh, God! Was I in the hospital?"You are awake!" a voice suddenly interrupted my thoughts.I looked in the direction it came, only to find two smiling nurses walking through the door."Where am I? What happened to me?"The first nurse stood at the foot of the bed. "You got hit by a car. You've been in a coma for hours."Hearing that, my memory came rushing like a flood. I remembered running after Max in the dead of the night. I also remembered th

Chapter 004 Marry Me!

~Rosemary~"You are having sex with my twin sister while I just lost our baby?" Max raised his voice. "What else do you want me to do? How am I even sure the pregnancy was mine? We don’t meet often, after all.""It was yours! I never cheated on you, Max. And you know it!" I yelled, my chest tightening. The slapping sound got louder as Max roared, "I don’t care! Sign the divorce agreement and send it over. I'll send your belongings. Also, don't ever call this number again!"With that, he hung up.Tears blurred my vision as I stared at the phone screen in horror. What did I do to deserve such cruel treatment? It was as if history was repeating itself as I used to catch them having sex in our chemistry lab before, in high school. But this time, it was more painful. Max was inside my twin sister while I was battling for my life and that of our son. Worst of all, he was happy I miscarried and even accused me of cheating.He used to buy me flowers to beg for my forgiveness.How did he

Chapter 005 She’s Back

~Rosemary~I woke up to find an unfamiliar ceiling above me. It took me a good minute to realize that I was no longer in Max's house. I touched my belly which was once warm with life. But now, it was just cold and flat. I choked on a sob, missing all the mornings I spent checking out my baby bump in the mirror.Although the last thing I wanted to do was to face Max and Amani, I knew that my mother wouldn’t have invited me in the first place if there wasn’t something important. I had to go to find out what it was.I went into the bathroom after dragging myself out of Gerald’s bed. Yes, I slept in his bedroom while he volunteered to spend the nights on his living room sofa. We were occupied by my luggages these days, sorting them and placing them well. It was tiring but better than attending the shitty party I was going to later today. Everything’s hard, but luckily, I had Gerald to be with me. I didn’t even know how to thank him.I scrubbed my body hard in hopes it would wash a

Chapter 006 Heartbreak From The Grave

~Rosemary~I felt sick to my stomach when I saw Max grab Amani's butt and squeeze it. The intense kiss seemed to last for eternity. When they finally stopped, some of the guests whistled and clapped.Smiling mischievously, Amani wiped the red lipstick stain on Max’s lips and walked over to me slowly. At this moment, I couldn’t help but notice that her dazzled dress could have easily passed off for a wedding gown if it weren’t for the red color. Her blonde hair which was very similar to mine was curled and styled with tendrils falling over her cleavage. I felt she looked like a queen, but when she came closer to me and scowled, I held my breath.“I told Mom not to invite you. Why did you come? Do you intend to spoil my happiness like you did before?”Max came over and wrapped his arm around her waist. “Don’t worry, honey. She wouldn’t dare.”Then he shot me a glare.I shivered, feeling the lump in my throat return. Before I could come up with something to say, I heard the young women

Chapter 007 Knight In Shiny Armor

~Gerald~The entire ballroom instantly went quiet. Even the soft music that was playing in the background abruptly stopped. I could feel many harsh stares on me. Regardless, I took off my suit jacket and draped it on Rosemary’s shoulder. I smiled when she looked at me with tearful eyes.“And who the hell are you to lecture us?” the older woman suddenly yelled.The younger woman who looked a lot like Rosemary snapped, “Why are you defending her? And who invited you to my party?”Max, whose face I knew all too well, echoed, “How dare you insult my fiancée and her mother? Who the fuck are you?”“I’m her husband!” I pulled Rosemary even closer, glaring at all of them. “She’s the woman I have loved for a long time."It was true.Rosemary Beckett was the woman I dreamed of every day for many years. Like it was yesterday, I could still remember the day she walked into my life.I was just seventeen years old at the time. On that fateful day, I just got off my cleaning job when I was accoste

Chapter 008 Sudden Luck

~Rosemary~Time seemed to stop when my chest collided with Gerald's. Our gazes locked. I could see my reflection in his alluring eyes.Suddenly, we pulled away from each other. I ran my finger through my hair and looked away in embarrassment."Sorry," Gerald said softly.I waved my hand. "Don't be. Thanks for catching me."Oh, God! Why is my heart beating fast? And why can't I look at him in the eye anymore? That's normal, right? He's a handsome man. There's no way I am falling for him. I still haven’t gotten over Max."Your ankle twisted. Are you sure you are okay?" Gerald asked, glancing at my ankle.I pulled back my leg and waved. "I'm fine. It just hurts a little."Gerald nodded. After holding the door for me and getting behind the wheel, he asked, "Where to now?""Elmont. The house my father left to me is on the outskirts."Under my direction, Gerald drove us to my father's childhood home. It was a washed-up one-story building that stood surrounded by trees.The first thing I not

Chapter 009 Thirst For Revenge

~Rosemary~"I can't believe I actually sold the house for ten million, now I can use this to start my own business!" I said to Gerald on the way home.He smiled. "Good things come to good people, Rosemary.""But this is just too good to be true!" I argued. "Why did that man spend so much for a dilapidated house? He didn't even inspect it himself!"Gerald kept his eyes on the road. "Rich people are full of surprises. I guess he has lots of money to throw around. You know, the fung-shui thing. Or maybe he just loves Elmont.""Maybe..." I muttered, still feeling a little strange."This calls for celebration!" Gerald declared when we returned home. "Let me cook you dinner.""I'll join you."I chopped the veggies while Gerald seasoned the chicken. At this moment, I couldn't help remembering my previous marriage. Although marrying Max had been a dream come true, life in his house was torture. I was always so lonely and sad.Max and I never did anything as a couple. He only came home to eat

Chapter 010 Troublemakers

~Rosemary~Three years. That's how much time had passed since I got divorced and remarried. A lot happened within that time. I had toiled day and night. However, I still couldn't believe I had achieved so much. I was no longer the broke and broken Rosemary Beckett. Now, I was a boss. After flipping stocks for a long time, I was finally able to buy a prestigious hotel located in the heartbeat of Manhattan. I also bought a bunch of other properties.Standing up from my desk, I adjusted the silver watch on my wrist and slipped into my red bottoms. I closed my laptop and then grabbed my phone and bag.It was just a few minutes past five, but I was leaving the hotel early today. I turned off the lights in the office when I got to the door. As soon as I walked out, a waitress in a black and white uniform came rushing from the left. She bumped into me. "Sorry, boss. I'm so sorry!" She bowed deeply."It's all right. Be careful next..." My words trailed off when I saw tears rolling down her
