Hello readers, I promise you that you won't regret reading the book, don't worry there is many secret that will be reveal in this story. So please tell me who did you think should Rowan marry between James and David
James sat in the car, anxiously waiting for Rowan to join him for their daily commute. His mind raced with worry, wondering if Rowan had discovered the hurtful comments about her on the internet. He hoped she hadn't changed her mind about going to work. As Rowan finally approached the car, James couldn't wait any longer. He hastily opened the door for her, and she slid in. Rowan began to apologize for the delay and contemplated sharing the reason for her delay but ultimately decided against it. "Ready to go?" James asked with a playful tone, trying to lighten the mood. To his delight, Rowan smiled. With the car in motion, they ventured into a world of silence. Neither of them spoke during the journey. James held on to the hope he would find a way to stop Flora from causing Rowan more pain, while Rowan's mind was occupied with thoughts about the tragedy that had befallen Flora and her lost child. Arriving at the hospital, Rowan reached for the car door, but James gently touched her
Inside the cab, Rowan's anger was like a pot boiling over, and she couldn't keep it in any longer. Finally, she hit that breaking point, where she just refused to put up with nonsense from anyone.She might have truly hit that limit of taking no crap. The driver, oblivious to the brewing storm within Rowan, attempted to strike up a conversation. But oh, she was a volcano of fury, and there was no room for pleasantries.Now, this driver was a chatterbox, an oddity in the world of usually quiet chauffeurs. Despite Rowan's silence, he just couldn't grasp the art of reading people's moods. It's like he had a radar malfunction or something.As the journey progressed, Rowan's tolerance for the man's absurdity reached its limit. She couldn't bottle it up any longer. The frustration spilled out, her words cutting through the air, and she didn't give a damn about how the man felt. It was a rare occurrence for Rowan, but circumstances had pushed her to the edge."Drive in silence, please. I nee
Flora gazed at Rowan, her eyes filled with accusation. "You probably think knowing the baby isn't David's is enough to drive him away from you," she stated.Rowan, looking directly at Flora, retorted, "I wasn't interested in your man. I don't care what he does about you. What bothers me is the wreckage of my name. Marrying David was your doing. If you hadn't slipped pills into his drink, we wouldn't have ended up together.""Why didn't you just walk away when I offered you money not to marry him? Instead, you tied yourself to the same man I wanted. And now you expect me to stay calm?" Flora questioned."I promised never to cross your path again, but what did you do? You spread lies about me. I bet the rumors circulating are all your doing, accusing me of killing your child," Rowan revealed, her voice tinged with frustration.During their exchange, Rowan's hand accidentally brushed the phone screen, but Flora, consumed by the confrontation, didn't notice. The air hung heavy with the we
Outside, James paced near the usual spot where Rowan joined him for lunch. He glanced at his watch, growing increasingly anxious as he noted Rowan's delayed arrival. Frustration lingered in the air as minutes slipped away. Unable to endure the wait any longer, James reluctantly headed back into the hospital. Inside, he unexpectedly crossed paths with the two nurses who had inadvertently revealed the rumors to Rowan earlier. The weight of their guilt was palpable, their expressions betraying unease. Curiosity and concern etched James' face as he approached them. He sensed the tension in the air, wondering why Rowan was taking so long. The two nurses' faces filled with apprehension and exchanged worried glances. "Did she tell David?" one nurse nervously whispered to the other, fearing the consequences of their unintentional disclosure. The hospital corridors seemed to close in as they deliberated the potential fallout. One of the nurses, a witness to their internal turmoil, couldn't
David stepped into the reception area, glancing around in search of Rowan. He looked left, and right, and even ventured outside the hospital, desperately hoping to spot her. But she was nowhere in sight. A sigh of unrelief escaped him as he turned back, guilt gnawed at him. He realized Rowan must have assumed the worst, thinking he knew about the rumors circulating. Returning to the ward, Flora immediately unleashed her emotions. "David, why would you run after that woman who caused the loss of our baby?" Her words hit him hard, and the anger surging through him intensified. However, David remained silent. Instead, he approached, his gaze fixed on the iPad he had dropped in his haste to chase after Rowan. Flora persisted, frustration evident in her voice. "Are you avoiding me now because of that woman?" Still, David stayed silent, wrestling with the complicated emotions swirling within him. Flora's words hit David like a sudden storm. "You think she's more important now because
James sat nervously in the car, anxiously glancing at the hospital entrance. Suddenly, David emerged, and James couldn't escape the intensity of his gaze. He knew that David was on a mission, perhaps searching for him or Rowan. But James didn't care. All he wanted was to avoid any confrontation, especially with David. Without wasting a moment, James ignited the engine and sped away. Instinctively, he used his hand to shield the view, desperately hoping that Rowan wouldn't catch sight of him and that David would remain oblivious to their presence. The tension in the air was palpable as he maneuvered the car through the hospital's exit. Finally, out of the immediate danger zone, James released a deep breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding. The relief washed over him like a wave, but uncertainty lingered. "Are you okay?" Rowan inquired, her eyes reflecting concern as she observed James. "Yeah, I'm fine," James responded, attempting to mask the unease etched on his face. He extend
"Don't go through with it, then. If the thought of losing Rowan scares you, and if it means she'll get closer to David, just forget about it," Steve advised, concern etched across his face. James, torn and anxious, nodded in acknowledgment but couldn't shake off his lingering doubts."But won't it make me look selfish and heartless? I understand this audio could help Rowan, but it feels like I'm betraying her. Losing her trust is the last thing I want," James confessed, his voice tinged with genuine worry and the weight of his internal struggle."James, safeguarding the ones we care about isn't an act of wickedness. It's about shielding your own heart from potential hurt. There's no harm in that," Steve reassured, placing a comforting hand on James's shoulder. As he turned to walk away towards the bedroom, James's sincere gratitude halted him."Thank you, big brother," James expressed, his words carrying a mix of appreciation and uncertainty."You're welcome, kid brother," Steve replie
"Where to, boss? Back to the hospital?" Richard inquired the moment David stepped out of the presentation room. A grin stretched across Richard's face as he observed David's unwavering defense of Rowan during the interview. It was a revelation – a side of his boss he never expected. David had a good side, a soft spot for Rowan. Richard found himself hoping for reconciliation between Rowan and David, a mend in the differences that lingered. "The mansion," David replied, and the word echoed strangely in the corridor. "Mansion?" Richard echoed, a puzzled look on his face. "Yes," David affirmed. Richard's hesitation didn't escape his notice, prompting David to probe further. "Is something the matter?" he asked. "No, sir. I was just wondering why you want to go there. No one lives in the mansion anymore," Richard explained. David nodded, about to respond when his phone buzzed, diverting his attention from Richard. As David fumbled for his phone, he couldn't shake off the intrigue abo
