prologue and Chapter One : My Today's life

Prologue Rosa woke up looking excited. The comfort of the lounge king-size bed makes her feel like sleeping more, but it is her day; she can't joke with it. The room was a first-class asylum, the floor and ceiling looking like a horizon, the windows offering breathtaking views of the city outline. Cream-colored floor was made of dark hardwood glowing like a star. The elegant furniture created a sophisticated ambiance. She quickly rushed into the marbled-clad bathroom, a spa-like retreat; she entered the deep soaking jacuzzi with a separate rain shower and designer toiletries. Her face looked beautiful with a soft, relaxed smile as she sank deeper into the warm, scented water. Her eyes closed in bliss. She stood up from the Jacuzzi and felt like a queen. She felt the soft fabric of her gown gleam under the chandelier light. She expressed in a soft tone to herself, her voice fluttering with excitement, "Finally, I will be addressed as Mrs. Donald. Lilian, her chief bride...

Chapter Two: He proposed
Rosa's POV After our meal, Donald excused himself, standing up from the chair he sat with a warm smile. "Hey babe, I'll be right back soon, you can order for anything if you need more." he whispered bending down to kiss my cheek before walking away. I kept sitting quietly and taking in the restaurant's serene atmosphere. A romantic and welcoming ambiance was produced by the gentle light from the chandeliers above. The allure was further enhanced by the tranquil hum of the piano in the background. I was drinking my wine and thinking a lot about where Donald had gone. A young woman approached me a moment later. She had a kind but enigmatic smile and was well dressed. "Pardon me, ma'am," she said courteously. "Are you Rosa?" I wondered how she knew my name as I looked at her. After a brief pause, I replied, "Yes." She smiled enigmaticly at me once more. My smile made her smile even more. "A young, handsome man is waiting for you down the hall," she spoke softly after that. Bef

Chapter Three: What if he find out?
Rosa's POV As I continued to revel in the excitement of Donald's proposal, I went to work the following day. My finger's ring glistened like a tiny star, serving as a continual reminder of the joy that now permeated my existence. My friends surrounded me as soon as I entered the office, their excitement brimming like kids at a birthday celebration. The first to speak was Evelyn, who was always the life of the party. Her eyes gleamed like diamonds as she exclaimed, "Soon-to-be Mrs. Donald!" Her long, smooth blond hair brushed my face as she threw her arms around me. I was showered with congratulations as the others joined in with cheers and laughter. As I thanked them, I could not help but blush because I felt like the happiest woman alive. Eager to have a private moment, I sneaked off to my office while still smiling. I closed the door after entering and sank into my chair, grinning broadly as ever. I was unable to take my eyes off the ring on my finger, and I kept turnin

Chapter Four: pretending everything was fine.
Rosa’s POV I sat on the edge of my bed and stared at my phone, the messages still glowing on the screen. Who could have sent me such messages? I began to wonder. My thoughts got out of control. Should I tell you the truth? Does he know this? With each passing second, the room's size decreased. My phone unexpectedly rang while I was jotting down my thoughts. I looked at Donald's caller ID for a moment. It made my heart sink. Despite my fear, I made myself take a deep breath before answering. "Hey, sweetie. How are you? His voice remained warm as he asked. "I am fine," I say in an attempt to sound normal. Ignorant of the storm brewing inside of me, he kept talking. "Is it possible for us to have lunch tomorrow? With excitement in his voice, he said, "I would like to discuss when you will meet my family and I will meet yours. After a brief pause, I answered right away. Tomorrow sounds amazing. "Okay, babe." His gentle words, "I love you, babe," helped to ease my anxiety. On the co

Chapter Five: Meeting Rose
Chapter Five Rosa's POV At the office today, I was promoted to the position of a Manager. I felt happy hearing those words. Manager of Nulec Company. My heart raced with excitement, and I couldn't help but whisper to myself, “Wow, I’m the new Manager of Nulec Company.” But even this achievement couldn’t silence the storm in my mind. I decided I needed a vacation—not just to celebrate, but to escape the constant threats I’d been receiving from an unknown caller. A part of me hoped the break would help clear my head and give me the courage to see my son, David, after two long years. As much as I loved Donald, the man I was about to marry, I couldn’t shake the fear of losing him if he ever found out about David. My heart ached at the thought of jeopardizing our wedding ceremony, yet I kept telling myself it was for the best—for now. I called Donald to inform him about the promotion despite I'm still furthering my education. Donald was happy for me and called me a lucky champ. "You de

Chapter Six: Where was him when I was hurt and battered?
Rosa's POV The following day, I found myself sitting across from Grandma Hanns, deep in conversation. I needed her comfort more than I knew, and her wise, weathered face gave it to me. David was playing close by, and I let myself unwind for a little while as his little giggles filled the air like music. Despite everything that was going on in my life, his innocence reminded me that I had something innocent to keep safe. "After everything I have been through, I can not believe I have such a handsome baby," I thought as I looked at him, smiling. Just behind it a bitter thought crept in. Funny enough, I do not know who his biological father is. I am appreciative of my good health, though. If nothing else, there is no HIV. Even though I tried not to think about it, it still bothered me. What if it had been different? What if I wasn’t healthy? What would my life look like then? Grandma’s soft voice brought me back to the present. “Rosa,” she called sharply, her tone laced with concern

Chapter Seven: The business deal
Donald's POV I sat on my couch scanning my sitting room, meditating on Rosa's recent behaviors. Suddenly, my phone rang. My thumb moved quickly to the answer button after seeing who the caller was, Mr. Brian, my new business partner. “Hello, Mr. Donald, what about the business deal?” I looked at myself and thought about my family's reputation for a while. “Business deal? Well, I'm not in the right frame of mind now”. I was lost in a thought; if I reject the offer, my family's company will lose the deal. What should I do? “Hello! Hello! Are you still with me? I heard Mr.Brian call out to me at the other end of the line. His voice woke me from my thought. “Sorry for taking time to reply. I was trying to put things in order over here. I replied, trying to buy time in order to have a rethink about the deal. Mr. Brian replied, “Are you still interested? Many companies have sent their proposals for this same deal”. My eyes quickly opened wide, my chest pounding. I was confused.

Chapter eight: The Review
Rosa's POV My mouth dropped when I read the contents of the document Donald gave me to preview. It appeared so real, even though it was somewhat confusing. Considering that electric vehicles are new to the market, I believe the stated amount is reasonable for a global production company, but there is a problem. I spent two hours in Donald's room trying to figure it out. I reached over and picked up the phone, dialing the number of an old classmate who excels at business. "Hey, Cade," I cackled, "you did not bother calling me after we finished school." "Yeah! How have you been, my love? I truly miss you. I am sorry about that. You caused it by not loving me at the time. A CEO is your fiancé, correct? One of the reasons I stopped contacting you was because I learned about it. I think he is in a noisy place. "Will you please find somewhere quiet?" We need to talk. I had no idea As soon as I got out of bed, my eyes darted over the screen, taking in the information with acute fo

Chapter Nine: It's Complicated
Rosa’s POV “He actually called me back.” I muttered, pacing Donald's room. “Why is he bothering me, Cade? I don’t think he’s being paid to turn on me, but why can’t he see things from different angles? He’s so good at analyzing business deals, yet something about this one feels… off. I can’t even verify it myself.” As the phone buzzed in my hand, I sighed and reluctantly answered. “Rosa, you didn’t let me finish when I called earlier. You hung up on me.” His voice held a quiet disappointment, but I could tell he was trying to stay calm. “I’m sorry,” I lied smoothly. “I didn’t mean to hang up on you. The connection was bad, and I couldn’t hear you clearly.” A pause. Then, he chuckled lightly. “No problem. Hey, girl, I was just teasing when I called earlier. You take things way too seriously sometimes.” I rolled my eyes, despite myself. “You haven’t stopped with your antics, have you? Anyway, what’s the real reason you called?” We both chuckled, but his tone shifted as he

Donald POV"I said it was complicated." I scowled at Rosa. "At this time, I am in pain and have nothing to share with you. I must be left alone.Her expression is so solemn. There was nothing she could say. She prepared to depart after gathering her belongings. Then I realize that I will miss this lovely and wise woman for the rest of my life if I let her go.She appeared unhappy and disappointed. It is necessary for her to suppress a smile. I pulled her back as she was on the verge of leaving. Even though she was frowning, her face still looked lovely. "Hey sweetie!" I gave her a smile while extending my hands. The best thing that has ever happened to me is you, so I apologize. I cherish you, angel. Tears trickled down her smooth cheeks as she turned around. I am so excited to give my angel a hug. I gave her a tight hug, and we both held on to each other. Even when she is furious, she is stunning. I said to her, "You know what?" I am grinning, but I do not really smile. Because I app
