Sabrina looked at her stepmother and said, “But I love him.”Sabrina and her stepmother had a very unusual relationship. It didn't seem that she was closer to her stepmother but if the latter would tell her something, she would listen and try to act on it. Whereas Beatrice could not tolerate her stepmother and blamed her for her mother's death. It could be said that Sabrina and her stepmother had a very polite relationship while Beatrice and her stepmother had a very typical relationship. Mrs Taylor said to Sabrina after pondering for a moment, “Sometimes, those closest to us can cause us the greatest pain. If someone you deeply care about or love is causing you constant tears, is the relationship truly worthwhile? Wouldn't it be preferable to be with someone whom you may love slightly less, but he doesn't cause you sorrow and consistently strives to bring you happiness?”Mr Taylor stared at his wife for a moment and then sighed. His daughter would not be able to understand what his
Upon entering the room, Roseanne discovered a stunning black dress laid out on the bed alongside a note. She suspected Nicholas had left it there, as he had instructed her to prepare for the gala. Although she was not sure if she would be able to survive the gala, she knew that she had to go. This time, she had no choice. The dress exudes such elegance that it seems certain to steal the spotlight. Roseanne had a strong desire to make a dazzling entrance at the venue to captivate the attention of everyone present there, especially the killer who was there to hunt her. And she also wanted Nicholas to not be able to tear her eyes away from her. It was a daring task she had undertaken but she remained hopeful that she could execute it successfully.In previous times, Roseanne would attend events looked after by Ellora who kept a watchful eye on her every move even in Nicholas's presence. Initially, Roseanne assumed Ellora's attention arose from a fear of embarrassment believing that she
When they came to the table and sat with each other again, many people stopped by to greet them. The highlight of the event was when Mr Taylor and his wife came to greet the Hart couple. Nikolai and Vance tried to act normal for the event but the cracks in their relationship were clearly visible. Everyone present there could estimate that something had happened between the two of them during the party at Hart house. Ellora and Mrs Taylor talked with each other to maintain a polite facade. Where the men could not deal, the women would bring their soft politics to the table. Roseanne noticed many things this time that she never could in the past. She noticed how fake her mother-in-law was and how she acted very dubious with everyone in the gala. It was not the case with her mother-in-law only. Everyone was also the same. They had different characters that they brought to parties. Ellora was in a different mood when she arrived but now she was playing the role of a host who was so hap
Beatrice said as she was noticing everything regarding Roseanne, “I get it why Nicholas is crazy for this woman.”She had heard her sister crying about this new woman but she didn't get the opportunity to meet who this new woman was. But after studying Roseanne for a few hours, she came to the conclusion that the former resembled Nicholas' first wife a lot. Sabrina had told her many times how Nicholas was hung up on the ghost of his ex-wife and now that he found someone who looked like her, he was holding onto her. Sabrina asked in curiosity, “Why?”Beatrice's answer surprised Sabrina, “She looks like his dead wife.”“What?” Sabrina could not believe it. She had seen Anne's pictures and those two didn't resemble each other that much. Beatrice told her sister, “She looks like Anne. I have seen Anne many times in the events. She resembles this woman a lot. Nicholas is trying to find his dead wife in this woman.”She further added, “If you compare the picture of two women, you may not
On the other hand, Roseanne was talking to Nicholas' colleagues and he was introducing his friends. She was surprised to see that in the last five years, Nicholas had made good friends. Most of these people were people who either worked with him or he had business relations with them. However, it was quite fascinating for her to see Nicholas, who usually avoids people making friends. It seemed that he finally learned the value of having good people around him. Mrs Taylor suddenly stood next to her and said, “Miss Deluca, there is a young man outside asking for your presence.” “For me?” Roseanne asked, surprised. Mrs Taylor nodded innocently. She was acting like she was not trying to sow discord between the couple. She just wanted to see if Nicholas would get jealous if she used such terminology but she was disappointed by his reaction. Roseanne looked at Nicholas and exchanged a look. “I will come with you,” He said to her. They could not leave Roseanne alone as the killer might
Roseanne said to Nicholas as soon as she stood next to him, “She is so weird.”“Who?” Nicholas asked in curiosity. Roseanne answered, “Mrs Taylor. She is a very weird creature.”Nicholas smiled as Mrs Taylor’s reputation in the circle was quite something. He said, “You only met her once and you are saying it.”“Don't you feel so?” Roseanne asked him. “Umm, I wouldn't say so,” Nicholas said to her. His perception of that woman might be the most different and a little in-depth of all the people here. Nicholas expressed what he has analyzed throughout the years of meeting Mrs Taylor, “Mrs Taylor is an eccentric woman, Rose. She plays bitchy.” He paused for a moment and then added, “Actually, it's not a play but a part of her personality. I wouldn't call her kind because she is far from it. However, if you limit her by saying that she is a bitch or a weird woman, remember that she succeeded in making you underestimate her. She is far from being that. Mrs Taylor will chew you and spit y
The evening event came to an end, and Roseanne and Nicholas left for their residence after enjoying several drinks and raising toasts with fellow attendees. Engaging in extensive socializing, they found alcohol to be a significant component of the gathering. Yet, they remained only slightly intoxicated, not fully drunk. Roseanne felt overheated and thirsty after sitting in the car. She thought of trying a new dish but she hadn't anticipated it would be so spicy that her mouth still tingled with a slight burning sensation."Nicholas, could you pass me the water, please?" Roseanne requested, noticing the bottle was within his reach on his other side, making it convenient for him to hand it to her.However, she hadn't anticipated his response.Dismissing her request, he replied, "I'm busy. Get it yourself."Despite his abrupt dismissal, Roseanne didn't mind and decided to fetch the water herself.As she leaned in to reach for the water bottle situated on his other side, her breast inad
“Out!” Nicholas barked at the driver who just entered to drive them to the house. They were still parked outside the venue as the driver had yet to come to drive them back. The driver shivered as he heard the voice and didn't even bother to look back. When he entered the car, he didn't expect to find his boss in such a scene. He had been working with his boss for two years and had never seen Nicholas with a woman. It was a shock for him but he ran as soon as he could to save his life. Nicholas and Roseanne were making out in the car. He was kissing her fervently while she was responding in equal ferocity. It was not just him who could not control his emotions at this time, she was going through something similar at the time. She felt so much heat inside her body that she didn't know what to unleash him out. The animal inside her was trying to come out and eat the man out wholly. She had never felt such a strong feeling before. As a woman she had her needs but she had always been abl
