Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound. Chapter Thirty One: The city
Chapter Thirty One:Rosa’s POVThe scent of gasoline and dust reminds me of this city, not just the beauty, but the way I was treated badly. Now, they will regret their actions. They will see how wealthier, more powerful the wife of Donald Ronald, CEO of Hilly's company. The billionaire herself is. I was stepping back into my past with power.“Aha hah!” I chuckled, the sound echoed. My bodyguards glanced at me with surprise. I could tell they were wondering why I laughed.Cruising round the streets with my sleek red SUV car. My bodyguards and the driver seated in the front. The bodyguards eyes viewing like sparrows. A little smile on my face as I was staring at the city. A voice snapped me back to reality.“Madam, we are now in the main city, where are we going?” He asked with a calm tone. “Yes, I know we are. We need to use a restaurant. You can pack at a good and luxurious restaurant when you see one.” I replied firmly. My heart unwavering, whoever dares me or crosses my part wi

Chapter Thirty Two:Rosa's POVAs I stepped into my dad's apartment, everywhere looked odd. Alexis stood, crossed her arms and crisscrossed her legs while resting on the wall. “Okay, I know why you came here. You actually came to show off.” She muted after saying that and sighed after a while.Refusing to give her satisfaction, I wasn't really concerned about the trash she said, I bent my head as if I'm lost in thought. “If you say so, Alexis.” I glanced at her, removing my spectacles.Nothing looked new in that house, they were all old items I saw before I left. It seems something is wrong. My stepmom looked terrible, and she kept staring at me like she was surprised. “Aren't you going to tell my father I’m back.” I said with a smiling face.“My dad can't come and say hello to me after a long time. Why does he hate me so much.” My eyes brow knitted together as I looked blankly forward when I was deep in thought.My stepmom stared at Alexis and said to me, “Don't be sarcastic”.“Don'

Rosa's POVMy heart skipped as my body yanked onward from the screech sound from the tire of the car. The car's seat belt was a savior. The red SUV diverged quickly before stopping. “Are you okay, a ma'am?” My driver requested, his tone showed concern.Trying to stabilize my breath by breathing in and out. “What is the problem?”Everywhere was calm, one of my bodyguards replied, “A car just ran off our car.” I gripped my hands. “Who?”Before I was done talking, the doors of the other car in front of us were opened. Suspicious men in white stepped down from the car. They are professional, dangerous, and trained.“Ma'am, please don't come out.” The car is a bulletproof car, my driver locked all the doors immediately. Immediately, one of my bodyguards brought out his gun. “I don't think they are here to harm us, don't shoot first, please. No!” I instructed and gently rolled down the window. “Let's see what this person wants.” I said, looking curiously at the window of my car.I don't

Rosa's POV“Babe, as I said earlier. There is a problem.” “My dad is very sick, and he has been treated by a traditionalist.”“I need to take him to the hospital for a proper care.” My head ached at that moment. “You haven't gone to the hospital, why? Take him to the hospital for a proper check up, please.” He yelled, but his voice sounded normal.“I will, I just need to put things in order.” “I'm not happy with everything that is happening now, the death of my lovely friend, Evelyn. How I wish I were with her in her last moment.”“Is okay, be strong. Evelyn is gone.”“Don't be too worried about someone who has gone. Be strong.”“I know she is your friend, you need to move on babe, I love you.”“I love you too, bye for now.” I called the driver to prepare the car, he will be taking me to my dad's house.“Have you prepared the car and can we go?” My heart heavy, the atmosphere seemed quiet, and I'm stressed already.A few minutes later, we got there. I looked at the environment of

Chapter Thirty Five:Rosa's POVImmediately he asked that question, my fingers trembled. My eyes glanced at Grandma Hanns. The question, “who is my mum?” Rang again like a bell in my ears.Grandma Hanns cleared her throat as she tugged the edge of her apron, staring at me as her grip tightened. He kept looking at Grandma Hanns. Suddenly he turned towards me. His face squeezed and he wasn't foolish I guessed.My chest trembled and my feet ached as the reply Grandma Hanns said to him, "She is a superb friend." Echoed.My jaw tightened, his eyes browned as he looked at me. David's jaw tensed, his muscles on his cheek clasped. He is not lacking anything as a child. Now I see he needs his parents around him. He is just a little boy with wisdom. David's brows pulled together in a deeper furrow. I'm scared of whom he will turn out to be. He is bold, too bold. “Grandma, you said ma'am is a friend, then why is she sending us money and other things all the time?” He asked slowly with a sad fa

Rosa POV“This isn’t the right time, Dad. We have a lot to discuss,” I said calmly.He looked at me, his face pale under the harsh hospital lights. His once-imposing figure seemed smaller now, worn down by sickness and time.“Get well soon. We’ll talk then,” I added, adjusting my glasses as I stood.I didn’t wait for a response. There was nothing else to say.“Dad, I’m leaving.”“Okay. Thanks.” His voice was weak, almost distant.Walking out of his private hospital room, I headed straight to the billing office. The doctor confirmed the remaining balance. Without hesitation, one of my bodyguards handled the payment, and we left immediately.As we drove toward City A, my phone vibrated. I glanced at the screen—Rose.I hadn’t heard from her in months. We met by chance when I last visited Grandma Hanns, and something about her had intrigued me.I answered. “Rose? Wow! It’s been a while.”“Rosa,” she said quickly, her voice tense. “I need to see you. We have to talk.”Something about her t

Chapter Thirty Seven: Rosa's POVThe mansion was wow! After speaking with Rose, I decided to go see my love. As I was approaching the outer part of her apartment, I felt a sharp pain in my back. My bodyguard opened the door for me to enter, as I sat on the chair, my body ached badly and I couldn't endure it. I quickly called my doctor. “Hi Doctor Reign, you need to come to my house. I need a medical attention.” Immediately I entered my car after making the call, we were about to move when I sighted a black car. The glasses were tinted I was unable to view very well. My face tensed as I looked forward to the direction of the car. “Who could that be?” I soliloquized.“Kindly drive the car, you all should be vigilant.” I commanded. My eyes gazed at the car. They all chorused their response at the same time, “Yes, madam.” As we moved, the reflection of the car flickered through my side mirror.“Why is that car looking suspicious to me?” I kept wondering.A few hours later, I arrived

Rosa's POVThe room was dark, and I can feel the heaviness of it. My throat choked asmy chest tightened. The strong man's hand clenched my mouth. Struggling against the stranger's grip, someone could barely hear me scream. My heart is panting, my nostrils blocked with a hazardous smell.“Who are you?” I asked with a little chance I had mumbling.With the little strength in me, I stretched my hands sharply, slamming my knees on the person's chest. “How did you get in here?” My tone sounded like a whisper.The person gripped me harder on my waist. My eyebrows raised and pulled together as my breath grew ragged. My fingers grabbed a metal beside my bed, without wasting time, I hit it on his head. He staggered and stumbled on the floor.My breathing deepened, I moved backward as I got my freedom from him.“Do you know who your biological father is? Late Mr. Winsor. Find your root, you're the daughter of a billionaire” The stranger sneered his voice hoarse.Just then my bedroom door opene

Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound. Chapter Forty-seven: The shock of my life
Donald's POV“What?” I kept staring like I've seen a ghost.“Who is this?” I kept pondering, my eyes still on the road. I had to stop the car to avoid an accident. Looking in her direction.“Is that not Evelyn?” I asked myself. I didn't know when she disappeared. Likewise, I couldn't see where she went. Is it just a resemblance or her twin? I was lost in thought as I stepped out of my car. I kept looking to see if I could see her again, but I couldn't. Not only that, but I got tired and entered my car and drove home to meet my love.At my residence, the butler came out of the house, “Welcome sir!”I kept quiet and refused to respond. “Is Rosa around?” I asked.“Yes sir!” He replied, his head bowed.Getting to her room, she watched me from the corner where she sat. She looked different, no welcome and no hug. “Are you okay?” I asked, my jaw slacked.“I'm feeling somehow.” She replied, touching her stomach, and her face squeezed.“Let's go to the hospital right away.” I carried her like

Donald's POVI scrunched up my face immediately, and I heard her voice. Who invited her over? My stepmom interrupted the silent room. My dad faked a smile, I know him too well. He doesn't like someone interrupting him when having an important discussion.“Who is the person you want to arrest?” She muttered again, her eyes glinted and her arms on her waist.“You are supposed to be in the kitchen preparing my meal and not here, please.” My dad replied calmly.Her face twisted, and she still insisted, “Don't we have a cook?”“The cook is preparing your meal.” She answered harshly.My dad stood up and turned to her, “Since you want to be everywhere, is Thompson.”He replied, sat down, and he sniffed.“Which Thompson?” She inquired, her nose flared.“Your brother-in-law. Thompson Ronald of course.” He said loudly.She scowled and sat down, still staring at my dad. She is not even having that surprise look. Not even a flinch. I was furious, what kind of woman is this?“What? Why him? What h

Donald's POVRosa continued, “To top it all, the link to the attempt is from his device. The IP was concealed, but Caleb was able to locate it and opened it. 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. My finger tapping my table.“No!” I shouted, stabbing with my finger. “Uncle……!”Caleb letting out a considerable breath, his eyes shrugging. “Rosa, he is not alone.” He interrupted.“I knew it” Clasping my hands behind my body, our eyes met each other.Caleb and Rosa muted, I kept staring at them. He opened another file. My eyes glazed at the screen. A video clip played immediately. Showing CCTV footage of four days ago. It showed my uncle entering the server room after the working hour.A lady was right behind him.My eyebrows lowered as cold ran through my spine.Rosa zoomed the footage, the image of the lady behind him was visible enough.“Who is the person?” I inquired. My head tilted.
Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound. Chapter Forty Four: “Who could that be?”
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. She raised her brows. “I can't
Selfish Desire: A Secret to Unbound. Chapter Forty three: Hacked Account
Donald's POV“Hello boss!” She yelled, her voice shaking. What's going on? Why is your voice shaking? What happened? 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

I laid in the bathtub letting the chill water sip into my bones as it eased the earlier stress I had.The scent of the soap and hair conditioner I applied was really spectacular, I felt really freshen. These products Rosa ordered newly are better than the ones the housekeeper has been ordering lately.I finished taking my bath, I decided to put on a shirt and shorts, waiting for Rosa as I thought by now she should be done with whatever conservation she and Lillian had.A minute later, she walked in majestically with an infectious smile making me look at her as she made her way to the bed.“Hey babe.” She said leaning on my body making warmth all over my body, peace came to my mind the moment our body touched.She was always needed at all times, her p

The table broke into two halves as his fist was strong.“You were given a specific task to do, and you were unable to do it, uh.” He yelled, slapping me across the face hardly.“If you knew you couldn't do it, why didn't you say it, you wasted so much time, I thought it was successful, what were you doing?”“Tell me what were you doing?” He shouted, pointing fingers at me.“Please give me a chance to speak.” I wailed in anguish, holding my cheeks as the slap was extremely hot.“Speak!
