The fourteenth chapter: My day.

Rosa's POV

When we got to the wedding venue—a private estate nestled in the middle of the countryside—my heart began to race. Upon exiting the vehicle, I felt as if my legs were weak from the morning's chaos. The estate was exquisitely furnished and the ideal balance of elegance and intimacy. Amidst the delicate glow of fairy lights, rows of thoughtfully placed chairs, adorned with delicate ribbons and flowers, were seated. But there were not many seats available. Only close friends and family were present, as his father was the only member of his family who had largely chosen to be present. It was more painful than I would like to admit about the absence.

The muted sounds of music and conversation that poured out from inside the hall confirmed my worst fears. I was not on time. The ceremony was about to begin. My chest tightened as I muttered, mainly to myself, "It has already begun." How should I proceed now? The morning's events replayed in my m

  • Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound.   Honeymoon

    Despite the intimate atmosphere created by the soft glow of the cabin lights and the rhythmic hum of the engines, my mind would not stop racing. I forced a smile as Donald poured us glasses of champagne, his movements elegant and fluid, trying to get rid of the knot in my stomach. While enjoying the thrill of our honeymoon destination, I should be engrossed in the bliss of our wedding night. But that man—the stranger who was lurking near the door during the wedding ceremony—kept coming back to me. He had been watching me. I knew for sure. Donald whispered, "To us," and lifted his glass. His eyes were warm and promise-filled. I sipped, allowing the bubbles to tickle my throat as I clinked my glass against his. I repeated, "To us," but my thoughts were still elsewhere. Donald sat back and looked at me. "You are too quiet, babe!." His words drew back my attention, and in my mind, I pondered, "Do you want to destroy everything you've built? Today is a reality because I worked towards i

    Rosa's POV. “Wow! I love the gift. It is so beautiful. I know you are wealthy, getting me a diamond? It is what I never expected from you. You are one in a million. I love you, baby.” I said, touching his soft skin and feeling so overjoyed. He dragged me once more, caressed my body, I knew it. The s·x issue has started again. I would rather not feel pain. I quickly stood and excuse him to the bathroom. He refused this time, he brought ropes out, I was wondering what is he going to do with these ropes? He asked me to lay on the bed, I did. Likewise, he tied me with the rope on the bed and s·x the living daylight out of me. I kept crying like a baby. He kept sexing for almost an hour. “What have I gotten myself into?” I yelled, the tears on my body wet him and the bed. He never cared. Few hours after, he took me to the bathroom and washed me thoroughly. He is caring, the enigmatic part of his life is his s·x life. He never showed this when we were dating, I wouldn't have married him

    Chapter Seventeen : Evelyn's POV "Hello our newest bride, is being a while. How are you enjoying your honeymoon? I asked as if I care. "Wow! Evelyn babe, we are very fine dear" She replied like she is good. "I know very soon, we are going to celebrate your wedding day soon." She said. That sounded like a mock. So, she is mocking me. "Very soon dear" I just have to lie to her, yes I lied. I don't have any serious Bush*t boyfriend anywhere. I was supposed to be with her on her wedding eve, and we were going to have a small party as friends, but I would rather not be there. Likewise, I simply do not understand why the wedding had to be impromptu. My plans were all ruined. How I wished she was the one kidnapped on that very day. I owned the apartment, I accommodated her when she had nothing. I introduced her to Lilian. She took everything away from me. Yes, she did. I used to be Lilian's best friend, the closest, not until she came and ruined us. She took my place. I made her got th

  • Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound.   Chapter Eighteen: Bad friend

    Chapter Eighteen: Lilian's POV I can't imagine dealing with a wrong friend all this while, Evelyn, you are evil. No wonder her attitude on the day was suspicious, even today she almost stopped me from entering her office. I saw it, yes! Rosa's bag. It looks so much like that bag, this brought back the memory of what happened that day. If not for a security guy, Rosa would have been injured. He was able to ran away with her belongings. That was supposed to be a merry day, is her wedding eve, but someone almost ruined that day. Seeing that same bag at Evelyn's office made my heart skipped.Am I being too curious, I wasn't drunk? I can see clearly. We're my eyes seeing properly?As it been her all this while?Could this be the work of jealousy?Everything was just like a dream to me. Evelyn has been a long-time friend, I don't really understand this attitude now. I didn't even notice the entering of my P.A. “Hello, madam! Madam! ..... Madam!”I backed the office entrance so that I can

  • Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound.   Chapter Nineteen: The attack

    Lilian's POVShe did all these because of jealousy, how can Evelyn be so callous? Talking to myself after she left my office. The thought of her misbehavior surprised me.Picking my phone from the table, my fingers gripping the phone and called Rosa, she didn't pick the call. I left my phone on the table and focus on my office work. My mind actually begins to have a second thought about Evelyn working here with me. Outside friendship, I had wanted to sack her for what she did. Thinking about my safety, Evelyn is not a good person to be found around me. I kept pondering when my phone rang, “Oh, that's Rosa.” I whispered with a soft tone.“Hey, babe!” She said, sounding curious like she has been yearning for me. “Hi, how are you, and Donald?” I asked inquisitively, smiling all alone in my office. My eyes scanning all over my office. “We are very much okay. We are back to city A.” She replied, laughing profusely at the background of the phone. I guess she and Donald are having a nice t

    Rosa's POVAs I stood in front of my big mansion, I took a deep breath and allowed the cool evening air to brush against my face. As the sun's golden rays reflected off the glass windows, my silk scarf fluttered in the wind, glistening like liquid gold. Well, there were many exotic cars at the driveway, all of them were expensive cars. My eyes kept on the brand-new Maybach, which was Donald's most recent gift to me after the honeymoon.I whispered to myself, I am so fortunate to have a husband like Donald, and a smile slowly appeared on my lips.As I walked down the marble stairs, I took in the beauty all around. Everything was perfect, from the manicured lawns to the faint scent of roses in the garden. My phone vibrated in my pocket just as I reached the final step. I pulled it out and frowned at the screen. Lilian? We had just spoken a short while ago.A strange feeling crept into my chest.I hesitated for a second before responding. “Lilian?” My tone was smooth and calm.But as soo

    Evelyn's uncle left quietly without a word, the expression on his face looked frightening. Looking at Lilian's face, she glanced back at me. We had no choice but to calmly followed him. “Greetings, please show me the room my little niece who was shot is.” He frantically asked a nurse, immediately he stopped, we also stopped without hesitation. The nurse was so busy with what she was doing but gave attention to us. “Two people were brought here with the same case, can you tell me her name please?” She replied with soft tone.With a heavy heart, he replied anxiously, “Evelyn, yes, Evelyn Ronney.” “Keep going straight, the room opposite the fourth room by the left.” The nurse replied without hesitation and quickly left to answer a call.

My head was racing with questions as I leaned back and rested against Donald's thigh.Currently, I don't know how or what to do, I let out a sigh “Probably, Evelyn should have woken up, I can't wait to see and discuss with her. I must see her again. Why is Donald refusing me?” I pondered.When Donald looked up from his phone, he knew I would say something. “What did you say?” His forehead wrinkled as he examined me.My fingers were wrapped around his fingers, the warmth of his fingers made me fell comfortable. “Seriously, I have a lot to think about.” I had to confessed to him.Donald, never removed his eyes from me. “Really, okay, tell me like what?” He said with a serious look and a demanding genuine response.I'm not ready for any argument presently, Donald don't understand the relationship between Evelyn and me.

He can't hide it.”Oh my God, how can my uncle be this wicked? He has been the nicest of all in this company. Was he manipulated? I thought.

    Donald's POVMy chest tightened, my head aches. Who could have invaded my company's IP. This is ridiculous. Rosa was busy tapping on the keyboard without looking at me. The seriousness in her showed it was terrible. The silent atmosphere in my office aroused more panic.“Rosa, how is it?” I inquired curiously. My throat is stiff like something blocked it. She could barely hear me clearly. She muted and didn't respond. I couldn't pretend any longer I went closer to her. She felt my presence and shook her body, she looked me straight in my eyes, but her expressions were not understanding.“Babe, you can't imagine. This is serious.” She muttered. Her eyes widened.The look on her face got me scared. “You mean!” I echoed sharply, tapping my table.“Is an insider!” She yelled.“What? An insider?” My head wrinkled, my jaw opened wide.“Who?” My voice tensed, leaning forward and my arms wrapped around me.Rosa's expression looked dull, her lips opened a little.

I thought deeply while responding to her.“The account manager just called me.” She replied, panting heavily.“So, what did he say?” I wondered what the situation might be.“He said that someone hacked into the company's account.” She replied, her breathing was still rapid as I could hear it from the phone.“What! How! What do you mean by someone hacking into the company's account, I hope this is some sort of joke.” I yelled, my fist shaking as my face turned red.“No, this isn't a joke, sir. The account manager said sums of money are rushing out of the account, and he can't stop it.” She said quickly.“How would such a thing happen? What do I pay you guys for? To lose a massive sum of money?” I roared furiously, this was really frustrating.“What happened dear?” I hear Rosa say.“Donald, you're not saying anything.” She said, frowning, I'm sure she could see the anger
