~Rosemary~

Three days later.

Who could it be?

This was the question that had been on my mind ever since we left Luke’s place. While I didn't trust Luke at all, I couldn't shake off this feeling that he was right.

Since the buyer had picked my preemie out of all the full-term babies in the hospital, it was clear that I was targeted.

But by who?

“Ma’am, you have a visitor.”

At the sound of my assistant’s voice, I jerked. I lifted the pen from the document and saw that I had left a large inky dot on it.

Shit!

“Should I let her in? She says she's your mother-in-law.”

Huh? Wait…Susan?

I looked at the time and saw that it was just a few minutes past ten. I had only just checked in thirty minutes ago. Why was Susan here this early?

I stood up. “Yes, please.”

“Oh, Susan. To what do I owe this pleasant surprise?” I said the second she walked in, looking so radiant.

Susan smiled. “It has been days since you last came to see me. So, I decided to dress up today and come to you.”

“I am so sorry.

    ~Rosemary~Gerald jumped, his eyes widened as if someone had just dropped hot coal all over his body. The blanket slipped further down Amani’s body, revealing a pair of gigantic boobs. “What’s that noise?”“What the hell is going on here?” I asked, my knees weakening. “Gerald, how could you do this to me?”Gerald got out of bed. He glared at Amani. “How did you get in here? What are you doing in my bed?”Slowly, Amani sat up. She looked at Gerald and frowned. “What’s wrong with you, Gerald? Have you forgotten what happened last night?”“What the fuck are you talking about?” Gerald held his head, wincing.My tears came rushing in a tidal wave as I rested my back on the wall. “You promised never to hurt me, but then, you turn around and sleep with my twin sister?”Gerald walked over to me, wearing only black shorts. “This is a setup, Rose. I…I don't know how that bitch got in here.”“Ouch!” Amani said, slipping on a shirt. “That's not what you called me when you were fucking me from be

    ~Rosemary~“Rosemary! Are you here for the final fitting for the wedding—” Susan stopped as soon as she saw my face clearly. “What happened to you?”She held my face. “Have you been crying?”I held her wrists and pulled down her hands. With my heart beating fast, I said, “I didn't come here to do any wedding preparations. I came to tell you that the wedding cannot hold.”Susan clutched her chest. “What!”“Rosemary!” A voice boomed.When I looked up, I saw Max lumbering down the stairs. He came to his mother’s side, shaking his head at me.“What… do you mean that the wedding cannot hold? It’s less than two weeks away.” Hardening my heart against the woman’s sad expression, I said, “I am already married. I got married to my husband after I was dumped nearly four years ago.”“What?” Susan gasped and looked at Max. “Son, is it true? Did you know about this?”“Mom, I—”“Yes, he did!” I interrupted, clenching my fists. “Max told me to keep quiet about it. Max and Amani wanted me to play al

    ~Rosemary~“Amani! Henny!” Screaming, I ran over to the middle of the road where the car had now stopped. I fell to my knees, seeing both mother and son, lying in a pool of blood. There was blood coming out of Henny’s mouth and his eyes were shut. Similarly, Amani’s leg was twisted behind her and there was a gash on her arm.Everything that happened next was a blur. When I came to my senses, I found myself pacing about in front of the operating room.“This is all your fault!”Hearing that voice, I turned around and saw my mother charging towards me with her face filled with hatred. “Mom, you—”Slap!I staggered, bumping on the bench nearby. A tear fell almost immediately. Holding my cheek, I looked at her.“Mom, I didn't--”“Save me the excuses! Max already called and told me what happened!”I looked at Max who was trying to console Susan at the end of the hallway. The lump in my throat got even bigger.How was this my fault? Maybe it was… If I hadn't chased after her for taking he

    ~Rosemary~I waved. “I get that every time, but he's not my son. He's my twin sister’s son.”The doctor tilted his head in confusion. “Are you sure about that? Because you and your sister have different blood types, which is uncommon for identical twins. But your blood type O+ is the same as the little boy’s.”“What do you mean?” I asked, sitting up on the bed. “My sister is also O+. She has been that all her life.”The doctor shook his head. “No, she's not. Her Rheus factor is negative. So that means that she couldn't possibly have had a Rheus-positive child. Pregnancies with different Rheus factors usually end in early miscarriages.”I couldn't believe my ears. What was going on? Is the doctor mistaken?“You are mistaken, doc. My sister carried her child to term. Her case might just be one of those—-”“Exceptions?” he completed, then shook his head. “I don't think so. Before each blood transfusion from relatives, we not only test for possible diseases or pregnancies. We also study

    ~Gerald~Rosemary was a literal mess when I found her. My heart broke at the sight of her teary face and ruffled hair.“You are here!” she cried, rushing into my arms as I stood before her on the stairwell.Stroking her back, I kissed the top of her head. “Sorry, I wasn’t here earlier. I had no idea.”“Why did they steal my son from me? Wasn’t it bad enough that they betrayed me and left me out in the cold? Why did they have to take the one thing I hold dear!”“I don’t know, Rose. But we are going to find out. I will help you.”After listening to Rosemary relay the doctor’s words, I said, “You should take a DNA test now. Since Henny is admitted here, it would be very easy to get it done.”She looked at me with red and teary eyes. “And when the test proves that he’s indeed my son?” “Then we fight. We fight for custody!” I declared decisively. “For now, let’s go find the doctor.”As I attempted to walk up the stairs with her, Rosemary pressed the back of her hand on her forehead. “I do

    ~Rosemary~I waved back weakly. “Hey, Susan! Yes, this is my husband—“Just as I was about to pull Gerald closer, his hand slipped off mine.“I gotta go.” Then he turned around and left.Standing in the hallway, I looked at his receding figure which disappeared within seconds. What’s wrong? Does he still not want to meet Susan? So much so that he would abandon me while I was weak?I took a deep breath and circled back to Susan. The woman was squinting now while Max didn’t even bother to hide his frown.“Where did he go?” Susan asked, craning her neck in the direction Gerald went. “I thought I would finally get the chance to see the man who snatched you away.”I smiled, walking up to her. “He didn’t snatch me, Susan. I was very much single when I married him.”“Were you really?” Max commented sarcastically. “If I remember correctly, our divorce wasn’t even a few days old before you married him.”“And does that make me any worse than you? Have you suddenly forgotten that you cheated on

There are protocols to this thing.”Gerald, who was sitting beside me, took my hand and squeezed it. He blinked at me, telling me to keep calm.But I couldn’t.I tapped my fingers on the desk. “What does it say?”“99.9 percent.”I shifted forward. “That means he’s my—““Son. Henny is your son.”Covering my mouth, I sprang up to my feet. “Oh, my God! Oh, my God! He’s my baby! He’s mine!”Gerald hugged me tightly as I jumped for joy. “I am so happy for you, honey.”The doctor cleared his throat. “I also tested your sister. The result proves beyond reasonable doubt that she’s not the mother. She’s just his aunt and the DNA percentage is just a little higher because you two are twins.”“Thank you so much for your help, doc. You have no idea what you have done for us,” Gerald said, pressing my head against his chest.All

    ~Gerald~“I was just about to come get you. I was wondering—" I paused, seeing Rosemary’s sad face.I got out of bed and rushed to her. “What’s wrong? Why are you crying?”She sniffed. “I just realized that I made a mistake that almost cost me the best thing that has ever happened to me in a long time.”“What do you mean? Is this about Henny?”She shook her head. “It’s about you. About us.”I exhaled. “You scared me there for a second.”Rosemary’s wet eyelashes fluttered. “I just looked at the surveillance footage from that night and it seems I was wrong. You didn’t let Amani in.”“I told you, didn’t I?”Walking away, I held my forehead. I didn’t want to talk about that night. Although I was sure I hadn’t slept with Amani, I was still angry at myself for not noticing that she was in my bed.More so, I was still a little mad at Rosemary.I know I act all good. But sometimes, I want my woman to trust me. I want her to give me a chance instead of believing that I was a cheat and betrayer

    ~Rosemary~A year later.“Are you nervous? Getting cold feet?”I blinked when I heard that voice. Sitting in front of the mirror, I looked at Sabrina who was styling my hair. “No, I am not nervous.”She sighed and stared straight at me. “So why have you zoned out more than three times since I started doing your hair? Something else bothering you?”I shook my head slightly. “I was just...just thinking about how different today would have been if my mom, dad, and Amani were here.”“Ugh!” Sabrina gagged. “How can you think of those fools on such a beautiful day?”My head lowered and I inhaled deeply.“Come on, girl. Forget about those folks. It’s not your fault that they were jerks. You have kept your mom out of your life for a year. Don't allow her into your heart again.”I raised my head. Then nodded. “Okay. I won't.”It had been more than a year since Amani committed suicide with the large dose of fentanyl she had on herself when she was arrested. And it had been seven months since my

    ~Rosemary~I pricked up my ear after Gerald removed the call from speakerphone and then said a few words. Although I didn't hear anything more, I was fairly certain it had to do with me.“I am coming with you,” I said as soon as he ended the call.Gerald shook his head. “No, you can't. Let me handle this.”“You are not the boss of me.”I took a deep breath, realizing that I was getting worked up. “I’m sorry. I—”“It’s fine. I can only imagine how you must be feeling now. But you don't have to follow me to the station.”“I do. And I want to. I want to look her in the eye and ask her why she did that to me. I also want to see Max and Amani. I want all of them to know that despite everything they did to me, they cannot break me.”Gerald stared at me, and I saw more reluctance in his eyes.“She deserves that much, Gerald,” Elvis chipped in. “After all she has been through recently, she deserves to look at her enemies in the eye.”Gerald said to him, “Stay out of this. Please.”“I know you

    ~Rosemary~Gerald’s head shot up as soon as I spoke. His eyes lit up and then, I felt his body crushing mine.“You are back!” he said, kissing my face. “What took you so long?”He pulled back and held my face. “Oh, my God! You scared the shit out of me. Don't do that again, okay?”I chuckled. “Okay, Mr. Beckett.”“I was so worried about…” His words trailed off. “Wait, what did you just call me?”I shrugged, “Mr. Beckett?”“You…you remember me?”I nodded. “I remember everything, Gerald. I am sorry that—”Before I could finish speaking, he knocked the breath out of me with a hard kiss. I smiled against his lips and then parted mine.Until now, I didn't know how much I had missed his lips on mine. As always, it felt like heaven. I held his strong arm despite the pain in the back of my hand due to the IV needle.“Catch your breath,” Gerald said, pulling back after like a minute.“What?” I chuckled again.“I’m not done yet. Just breathe.”I did as he said. And the second I was no longer g

    ~Gerald~“Seize them!” I roared the second I kicked the door open.All six of my men matched in and surrounded Max and Amani. They struggled but were pinned down within seconds.I squatted by the door, seeing Rosemary lying down.“Baby!” I scooped her up.She smiled at me. “You are here.”When she coughed out blood, I held her face. “Shh! Don't say anything. Let’s get you to the hospital.”“Wait!” Rosemary reached out and held my face. “I’m sorry for not believing you. Sorry, I realized too late.”“No! It’s not too late.”“I’m afraid it is.” She smiled again. “If I were to come back to this world again, I’d love to be your woman again. I would love to know love like you love me. To love you and be loved by you, Gerald. Just by reading your words, I realized that you are the man I always dreamed of having as a child.”She rubbed my face. “Promise me that we will meet in another life? Promise me that you will look at me the way you are looking at me right now.”“No! I can't promise you

    ~Rosemary~It was already past closing hour for most jobs, but my lawyer agreed that I come in to start the process. On the way, my phone dinged.A notification from the doorbell camera had just come in. I opened it and saw the live footage of Amani’s car pulling up in the driveway of Max's house.What’s she doing there? And immediately I just left too.I watched as Amani got out of her car. Max showed up from the inside. They spoke for a while. I thought they were arguing again. But then…“Oh, my God!” I screamed the second Max kissed Amani.“Ma’am,” said the taxi driver. “Are you okay?”I covered my mouth, shaking as Amani and Max made out on the porch. They looked like they wanted to gobble each other up. Max even grabbed her ass and squeezed it. Then they staggered into the house, still not letting each other go.“Ma’am, is anything the matter?”Hearing the taxi driver’s voice again, I raised my head. “Please, can you take my back? I will pay double.”He looked at me through the r

    ~Rosemary~I couldn't stop thinking of what Gerald said to me about proposing a prenuptial agreement. He sounded so sure that Max wanted me for my money. But Max was a billionaire, right?Right?I took out my phone and searched for the name of Max’s company. A few headlines came up.The first one: Brix Cars to get new CEOThe second: Max Smith resigns from the CEO position. Would this mark the end of the family’s hold on the company?The third: Brix Cars reportedly plunges into 30 billion-dollar debt.My jaw dropped lower with each headline I read. I had no idea that Max’s business was suffering this much, let alone the fact that he was no longer the CEO.Why didn't he tell me? Did this mean Gerald was right?Well… there's only one way to find out.I pulled out my phone and called the number saved under legal. “Erm… I’d like to draft a prenuptial agreement.”*****“What’s this?” Max frowned the second I handed the document to him.I kept my distance, a little scared. “Since we are goi

    ~Gerald~I slammed the door in his face. Before turning away, I listened as he stormed off, huffing and puffing about how I was making a huge mistake.“Before you say anything…” I began, looking at Elvis. “Get on the phone with the Russian mafia. I’m sure they would be pleased to know that Angel showed up here.”“No!”“What?” I exclaimed on the way to grab a glass of water.Elvis shook his head. “I don't think it’s a good idea to get involved in the battle between Angel and them. Time and time again, this has always ended with a bloodbath. It was hard enough for you to stay alive all these years despite having many enemies. I can't watch you get involved in a mafia war just because you want to take Angel down.”I sighed. “What do you suggest I do then?”“I suggest we wait. We wait for them to locate Angel and take him out. Since he's roaming without a care in the world, that should be pretty easy.”I shook my head with uncertainty. As far as I knew, Angel was much more powerful than m

    ~Rosemary~“Boss, are you okay? Boss!” Elvis ran to me as soon as the phone dropped from my hand. He made me sit on the sofa and peered down at my face.His tone changed. “Gerald, are you okay? Should I call the doctor?”I shook my head, clutching my chest. It was as if I was going to have a heart attack. But I knew going to the hospital won't help me.“Was that Rosemary on the phone? What did she say? Why are you like this?”I looked at him. “I don't know what to do, man. She’s getting married to Max again.”“What! How…but your divorce hasn't being finalized. You didn't sign the divorce papers, did you?”“I didn't. But now that she doesn't remember me or the love we shared, I’m afraid Max would make her drag me to court for the divorce. He's manipulating her big time.”I went on to tell him about the wedding photo Rosemary found and how she accused me of faking it and planting it in Max’s house.“This is getting out of hand. Should I tell the boys to take him out?”I groaned. “No. T

    ~Rosemary~“H-how is this… how did this…”I couldn't believe my eyes at all. I stared at the woman standing beside Max. She was wearing a very beautiful wedding dress. Most importantly, she wasn't me!She looked like me, but she wasn't me. She was Amani. I was sure of it!“So it’s true? What that man said is true! Max divorced me so he could be with Amani?”The photo slipped off my hands. Taking a step back, I stared down at it. “They even had a wedding. But why did Max propose to me two days ago? And Amani was so happy for me!”What the fuck is going on? Who's playing me for a freaking fool!All of a sudden, the door opened. I turned and saw Max. His eyes widened at the sight of me. He looked at my feet, and his eyes widened even more.“Care to explain?” I asked, folding my arms.I was trying so hard to keep it together. Heaven knows I wanted to jump at him and scratch his face. Another part of me also wanted to just break down crying. This moment reminded me of the heartbreak I su
