Alex inhaled sharply upon the sight of Rose. He closed and opened his eyes, but she was still there and he was doomed.

Rose gasped, taking some wary steps back as she saw the faces that weren't supposed to be there. That was when she realized she'd actually done something unreasonable, she'd done this, not even stopping to give Alex a call. How was she supposed to know that her husband was already one step ahead of her?

She just stood there at the entrance, heart racing in her chest, not knowing whether to take a step into the room or turn back and make a run for it. She felt like the ground could just open and swallow her. The look on Rock's face showed how disappointed, disgusted and angry he was and, at this point, she knew the man could do anything to her. She'd been careful, discreet and calculated with her moves all these years only to mess up at the end. Her situation rightly fits the saying 'everyday for the thief and one day for the owner'.

    "Hey, what are you doing here?" Katherine looked up, her brows furrowed as she stared questioningly at the young man standing before her. He just smiled at her, before sitting opposite her."It's you that I should be asking the same question. What are you doing here, Ms. Whites?" Eric smiled, folding his hand to his chest while leaning his back against the chair. He looked intently at Katherine, who seemed to be immersed in sadness."How did you know that I was here?""Have you forgotten that you called me?""Oh that's true, I called you.""I assume the spicy food you're gulping down made you forget, and I will try to ignore the liquid in the bottle. Why are you here looking so moody and sad?""Huhmm..." Katherine sighed loudly, dropping her spoon, while she picked up the glass of whiskey from the table and drank. She placed the glass back on the table after downing the drink. She then looked up at Eric, who had a confused expression on his face."When I left that luxurious store tha

    The dark sky slowly fades like a foam, and the daylight eagerly takes over. It was the dawn of a new day!"Ahhh..." Katherine groaned, rolling onto her side, while she held onto her head as a piercing headache hit her. She slowly sat up, squinting her eyes, as she slowly scanned the room, sighing in relief when she realized she was in her room. Then the events of yesterday began flooding into her head. "Hmm?" she gasped, covering her mouth with the palm of her hand when she realized she was in her pajamas. Her face instantly flushed from embarrassment, as she gritted her teeth in regret. She quickly grabbed her phone, dialing the number of the only person she could remember spending the previous evening with. "Hello" a raspy voice was heard from the other end of the call. "Hey, that you're gay doesn't mean you should take off a woman's dress without her consent. How dare you look at my body without my permission?" Katherine wasted no time in voicing her disappointment and anger.

    KATHERINE One whole week had passed and my boss’s attitude towards me remained the same. If anything, it had worsened, his poker face and chilling Aura had increased tremendously. Scary. Once again, I'm back to the old times; forcing myself to put up with the stressful and draining atmosphere while working. I'm now subjected to pressure, while making sure that I do my job carefully and diligently to avoid getting scolded or reprimanded by my sudden strange and angry boss.I sighed, as I leaned back on my chair, letting my mind wander a little. However, the only memory that came flooding my line of vision was one certain day which I won't forget easily. I shuddered, shutting my thoughts immediately. On that very day, I had been so careless and in haste, that I omitted some vital information in the review which I gave to him and he had given me the scold of my life with so much rage. Although I have been getting all the shouting and scolding in abundance from him lately and it

    Rock got to the terrified woman and paused as he slowly knelt before her. His lips curled slightly as he threw her a scary smile, frightening her the more. He knew exactly how he looked at the moment and the effect his appearance had on her. She was afraid of him. He couldn't help but wonder why she never considered this moment when she decided to throw her slutty self into another man's arms."Did you ever love me, for once in the past three years? All those times you professed your love to me, those smiles and kisses, those memories. Was anything from you ever real? Was it all an act to keep deceiving me? " He suddenly asked, pain in his voice as he stared curiously at her. "Yes," Rose nodded firmly. "I did love you. Not all the memories were lies," she said, while Rock just chuckled with a shake of his head. Although Rose was trying hard to make her voice sound as believing as possible, she knew that he didn't buy the lies."I'm really sorry," Rose continued to plead. "I real

    Jason's mouth was hanging wide open, eyes filled with confusion and horror like he had seen the scariest thing in his entire life. He didn't even shake when he heard a slight knock from the door. Then he was shocked even more when the door was pushed open and it was unexpectedly his brother, Rock. He just blinked, still speechless, as he stared bewilderedly at Rock, who simply walked into the office with his hands in his pockets."What did my wife say to you?" Rock's voice was calm and chilly, as it echoed in the quiet room. Jason swallowed hard, but couldn't say anything. He just stared at his brother like he'd suddenly developed another head. In his head, he was trying to understand what was going on between the couple. They were really scaring him with their weird behavior. "I d-don't know," he slowly stuttered. He really didn't know what to say. He was still trying to wrap his head around what had just happened in his office seconds ago. It was unimaginable

    Stepping into one of the most expensive restaurants in town, Jason was led to a private room. Knowing fully well that his brother was waiting for him, he did not hesitate to follow. Before going in, he had to stop and take a deep breath as he inhaled and exhaled, only pushing the door open when he was good to go. He was deeply stressed and concerned about the situation of his brother's marriage. The new development between Rock and Rose was so shocking and unexpected that he didn't know how to take it in. He couldn't believe that they were really getting a divorce, just like that. They were the sweetest couple he had ever known in his life. But it wasn't a joke anymore. Rose had confessed to him about cheating on his brother, shocking him. It was as if a knife was stabbed into his heart when she'd confessed to him and it only took all of his effort to remain calm and not lash out at her. He could only imagine how his brother was feeling at that moment. Of course, he would

    The two men were quiet.While Rock was lost in his world, he was enjoying his drink. Jason was still thinking about what he had just heard. But then, he was startled when Rock suddenly leaned forward, staring into his eyes."What?" Jason blinked confusedly. "I was recently told that I would remain lonely all my life, which I don't mind, by the way. You're my brother after all, and I know you wouldn't betray me like the others", Rock suddenly paused, thinking a little before speaking again. "I just want to tell you that you're lucky for making the right choice because I wouldn't hesitate to cut you off if you had attempted to make the wrong decision,"Jason swallowed hard. However, he couldn't help but smile when he heard the last part of Rock's words. Nevertheless, his heart still ached for the man who was silently dying in pain and he wished he could do anything to ease his suffering." Of course, I would never betray you for anything.

    It was a lovely breezy Friday evening.As usual, Katherine was bored to death. After having her dinner and speaking to her family over the phone, there was nothing else to do. Her mother's health was improving and this brought joy to her heart. However, she still felt uneasy. Something was eating her up, making her feel restless. Placing her phone on the nightstand, she sat still for a while before grabbing a book. Not wanting to look at the ceiling while losing herself in guilt, she decided to read. Perhaps it will help her to get her mind off some things. She slowly lied down on the bed, as she flipped through the pages. Minutes later.... "ahhhh..." Katherine sighed in frustration, biting her lower lip as she dropped the book on the nightstand. She thought it would help her to calm down, but she was wrong. She reached for her phone, and quietly left the room. Plunging down on the couch, she looked toward Hannah's room and pouted. She could already guess that she would be sleepi

    One year later. Sitting on a chair in the garden with my eyes trained on one little child and a bigger one as they played, I couldn't help grinning with excitement on my face. It was hilarious watching Rock on his fours as he gave Justin a piggyback, and if he delayed, Justin would flog his back, making him move faster. Who knew that the mighty grumpy CEO would become such a devoted man for his family? It felt surreal and wonderful. It felt like a dream come through seeing the man of my dream and my child playing like two kids while I watched. We are now a complete family after three years of me crying in pain and sorrow. While I was reminiscing about the past, I didn't know when my hand went over to the ring on my finger as I began to caress it out of habit.Yes, Rock did propose to me. It was last month, on a loving, cool evening, when he'd gotten on his knee and asked if I would marry him with a ring in his hand. He had insisted that he wanted us to have an official weddin

    Deciding that it was best to just avoid Rock, Katherine hurriedly headed for the door. Although their son might have made their relationship turn around positively, it still felt surreal and strange, making things a little awkward between them. However, her hand was suddenly captured before she could reach the door, causing her to halt her movement. "What is it?" Katherine quirked her brows up in confusion.'What was I even expecting from her? That she will run into my arms with excitement and hug me after everything? Hmph...' Rock shook his thoughts to the back of his mind as he looked at Katherine with a gloomy expression."I just want us to have a good talk", he proposed, releasing his grip on her."Why?" 'Is she still mad at me?' Rock couldn't help but reason with himself as he heard the sound of her voice. Katherine shivered slightly as she was beginning to feel uncomfortable under Rock's burning and unwavering gaze. No matter how much she tried to lie to her

    After rescuing Justin, Rock took Katherine and his son back to his house. Katherine couldn't help feeling weird as she stepped into the house she'd once lived in once again. She was in the same room she'd once stayed in and, to her surprise, everything was still the same. She didn't even have to bother about what to wear because all the clothes and other things the man had angrily gotten for her were still intact. She'd expected the man to do away with everything after her disappearance. "Why's all this still here?" she whispered to herself in shock. "Mom, what are you mumbling about? I want to sleep." Justin suddenly screamed, taking his mother out of her head.Katherine chuckled as she quickly closed the closet and turned to look at her son who was sitting on the bed while staring confusedly at her."I wasn't saying anything, honey. Why don't you go to sleep? You've eaten and bathed. What more do you want?" she walked over to the fuming boy on the bed and gave his head a loving

    Katherine and Rock got to the location Rose had specified with Alex. It was in an underground garage. Katherine was the first to get down from the car. She bit her lip, tears filling her eyes as she saw her son. "Mom," the boy screamed as she saw his mother. He tried to run towards Katherine, but Rose prevented him, causing him to start crying. "Let him go." Katherine spat coldly. "Not when I haven't seen what I want," Rose snorted. "Let the child go. " Alex said, causing Rose to shudder as she quickly released the child, while Justin quickly rushed into his mother's open arms. "Baby," Rose called out, as she rushed into Alex's arms. "I have missed you so much." "Let's go," Alex said, as he wriggled away from the woman. He headed straight to Rose's car, taking his position in the passenger's seat. "Oh OK," Rose nodded in bewilderment, as she speechlessly strolled over to the car. She couldn't understand why she was getting cold treatment from Alex. However, she quickly turne

    Rock's eyes turned red as he looked back at Katherine, who was glaring speechlessly at him. He silently took a step closer to her, while she took some wary ones back. Rock suddenly stretched his hand and swiftly held onto her waist as he pulled her into his arms, hugging her tight while nuzzling her neck."I missed you." Katherine hissed, as she wriggled in his arms trying to free herself, and while she was struggling so hard, coupled with the fact that Rock was a little tipsy, he lost his balance and the two landed on the floor with Katherine on his body. "Ahh..." they grunted in pain. Katherine was atop the man, and their faces were so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.Katherine, whose eyes were tightly shot, slowly opened them and almost freaked out by their position. She hurriedly tried to get off the man, but Rock prevented her by abruptly capturing her lips with his as he kissed her deeply and hungrily. However, he was forced to let go when he felt wetnes

    "Mr. Figo." Dr. Steve shivered as Rock sat on the chair opposite his desk. He was surprised when he got a call from Rock, it was like a dream. He never expected that Rock would ever come to visit him and with the way his eyes were so cold and void of any soft emotion, the doctor couldn't help but silently gulp down in fright. He could already feel a bad premonition of this unexpected visit from Rock."Why do you look so startled to see me? I made an appointment before coming," Rock said, folding his arms to his chest as he leaned back against the chair. "I know." Dr. Steve chuckled, trying to hide his uneasiness. "I'm just shocked because it's been a while.""With the status of my health, can I impregnate a woman?" Rock suddenly leaned close and said as he decided to cut to the chase. "I saw a child that resembled me. And I slept with his mother prior to our parting a few years back." Dr. Steve was taken aback by the unexpected question, as he didn't know whether to say the truth or

    After relocating back to her hometown, Katherine decided to open her own business. She was inside her flower shop, when a chime sounded from the front of the store. She came out from the back store to attend to her customer. But then, she suddenly froze seeing the face she hadn't expected to see ever again in her life.Rock also stood there speechlessly and their gazes locked, longingly. Time suddenly stopped as the two stared into each other's eyes. Katherine was the first to realize herself, as her mood instantly changed."What do you want?" She spat coldly, with no form of emotion on her beautiful face. "Are we going to pretend that you don't know me?" Rock felt a pang in his chest. She had turned colder than he knew her. She's like a different person. "Are we going to pretend that you're nothing but a customer?" Katherine threw back. Apparently, she wasn't ready to be bothered at all."Mom, is that my dad?" Justin suddenly asked, rushing out from where he was. He held onto hi

    In his office, Rock felt troubled and restless as he paced back and forth in the room. He had been lost in his thoughts and dying of curiosity ever since that very day he had run into Katherine and the little boy at his brother's wedding. The image of the little boy had refused to vanish from his memories. It's so vivid and each time he closed his eyes, he would see him gripping him with his innocent blinking eyes. Rock didn't even know how Katherine had managed to vanish from the wedding with her child. He tried looking for her even at the reception party, but she was nowhere to be found. It was as if she had disappeared into thin air with her son.He took out his phone and dialed a number."Mr. Figo." a voice was heard from the other end of the call. "Where are you?" Rock asked, his voice serious, indicating that he wasn't in the mood for any joke."I'm in my office, of course." Greg replied, while chuckling. "What is it?

The two quickly rushed into each other's arms as they hugged so tightly while swinging from side to side and were only forced to pull away by a little hand that suddenly tapped on Katherine's side. Katherine and Hannah slowly looked down and saw round eyes staring at them with a pout and smiled. The little guy felt left out from the look on his face."Justin." Hannah's smile widened as she crouched down to meet the kid's level while patting his hair lovingly."I missed you," the kid said before rushing into Hannah's arms to get his own long-awaited hug, while Katherine burst into laughter."Oh so adorable" Hannah chuckled as she carried the kid in her arms, teasing his smooth cheek.
