Nicholas adjusted his seat to answer to her. The wind blew fast as if trying to blow them away. Rose adjusted her hair that scattered due to the effect of the wind. She adjusted her long floral gown flowing in the direction of the wind. Then she took a sip of the mango juice, then patiently waited for him to talk. In simple terms, he is in a state of shock. "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you not going to talk to me anymore? Why? Are you shocked that I know what you did before coming here?" She asked him in confusion. "That's not what happened." He tried to explain, "I actually came through the hospital road. I didn't want to waste time going back there and I decided to check on her. I didn't mean to go there before coming home." Rose nodded, even though she feels that he might be right. She didn't want to forgive him that easily. She's mad that Ellen is still doing everything to get his attention and he is actually giving her all of the attention too. "It

The night was dark and heavy with anticipation as Nicholas set out on his mission. His heart pounded in his chest as he thought about what he was about to do - risk everything to get justice for Rose. The phone calls from her had gone unanswered, but he knew that this was a sacrifice he had to make.Nicholas had stumbled upon a lead, a person who had information about the ones responsible for shooting Rose. It was a risky move, but he couldn't sit idly by while his girlfriend suffered. With determination burning in his eyes, he made his way to the location he had discovered.As he approached the address, Nicholas could feel the tension building within him. This was uncharted territory, a place where his bravery would be put to the ultimate test.

Ellen opened her eyes again for the umpteenth time in the day. She has been in the hospital for a few days and has only seen Nicholas once. She is sad and annoyed that she can't leave even if she wants to because Nicholas strictly instructed the hospital not to let her out. Nicholas was said to be on an emergency trip for the past few days which is why he could not come to the hospital. She thinks Nicholas is probably at home with Rose and lying about his trip. While she was still thinking about this, James walked in with some food. She scoffed and looked away. When the door opened, she has gotten to excited thinking it was Nicholas. They say when you think of someone too much, they are the next person you would see walking through the door. All that seems to be a lie. James gently put down the food bag he brought. His eyes scanned the room, hopefully waiting for her to look at him. It would be a lie at this point if he denies what he feels for Ellen. It's something he's always ke
In the quiet and secluded cafe, Rose met with Kay. She wasn't going there to meet with him officially yet. Also, she only wanted someone to talk to. She doesn't have any thoughts of apologizing to him for snapping at him yet. She met him already waiting for her there. He also got her favourite type of coffee. "You came quite early. Are you trying to make me feel guilty?" She sneered. He shook his head, "You are welcome to think that way. I'll be glad if you feel guilty at least." She took a sip of the coffee, "You must be so proud of yourself. It's annoying." Kay leaned in, concern etched on his face. "Any luck with finding out who shot you?" he asked gently.Rose sighed, shaking her head. "No, not yet. I've been trying, but it's been difficult to get any solid leads." "I'm sorry, Rose," Kay began, his face filled with concern. "I've been looking into it, but I haven't found any leads on who shot you."Rose nodded, understanding the complexities of their world. "It's okay, Kay
The next day, as Nicholas was reviewing the information about the men they had caught, Ellen entered his office. "Boss," she said in her usual confident tone, "what do you plan to do with those men you caught?" Nicholas looked at her, his expression serious. "I am going to make sure they face the consequences of their actions," he replied firmly. "But my main priority now is to find the real boss behind all of this." "There's someone else aside from the ones you already caught? I don't think those men are going to say the truth. You are a boss yourself, you know how everyone is trained to keep their mouths shut." Ellen tried to reason. "I know. The more reason I will make them confess even if they don't want to. I won't let them get away with what they did." He promised. "So... What do you have in mind? Do you have any leads on their boss?" Nicholas doesn't know why Ellen wants to dig further. He wants to believe it's not because she is trying to hide something. But he decided
Don Bernardo finally arrived in Vernice City. On getting to the house, she didn't find Nicholas in the living room. It's her first time at his house in Vernice City. She decided to check him in the office. She knocked his office, then she opened the door when she heard his voice. Ellen walked into Nicholas's office, trying to put on a friendly smile despite the turmoil inside her. "Nicholas, it's been a while," she greeted, her voice sounding a little too cheerful.Nicholas looked up from his desk, surprise flickering in his eyes. "Ellen," he replied, nodding politely. "What are you doing here? You never told me you were coming.""I just wanted to surprise you. I tried calling but," Ellen replied casually. "You've been quite busy lately."Nicholas nodded, appreciating the small talk. "Yes, there's been a lot going on. But I'm managing."Ellen took a deep breath, trying to muster the courage to bring up the topic she had been avoiding for so long. "Nicholas, you told me that Rose is
In the living room, Nicholas and Kay faced each other, the tension between them palpable. Nicholas was determined to reclaim his place in Rose's life, but Kay wasn't backing down either. He needs to be sure Nicholas is not coming to hurt Rose. "Who are you to Rose?" Nicholas asked, his voice laced with a hint of aggression. "And what do you want with her?"Kay took a deep breath, his eyes meeting Nicholas's with unwavering resolve. "I've been there for her for years," he replied calmly. "I helped her when she needed support, and I stood by her side when she had to run away from everything she knew."Nicholas frowned, not liking the thought of someone else being there for Rose during their time apart. "And that message... the one about why I should forgive her, was that you?" he questioned.Kay nodded. "Yes, that was me," he admitted. "I wanted you to understand her perspective, to give her a chance to explain herself."Nicholas's jaw tightened, feeling like Kay was trying to medd
Rose's heart skipped a beat as she walked into Nicholas's house. The sight of him waiting for her in the living room brought back a flood of memories from their past. Despite the tension between them, being near Nicholas still stirred something deep within her."Hey," Nicholas greeted with a smile, trying to ease the awkwardness between them. "I'm glad you came."Rose returned the smile, trying to appear unaffected by the emotions swirling inside her. "Of course, I wanted to talk," she replied, taking a seat on the sofa.Nicholas sat beside her, taking a deep breath before he began to explain the situation with Ellen. "I need to tell you about Ellen," he started, his voice tinged with frustration. "She's not happy about us being together."Rose furrowed her brow, surprised by the revelation. "Why? What did she say?" she asked, genuinely curious about Ellen's objections.Nicholas hesitated for a moment before continuing, "She said you hurt me in the past and that I shouldn't forgive yo

Ellen arrived in Vernice City with a heart full of restlessness and a mind consumed by curiosity. She couldn't shake off the feeling that Nicholas had seen Rose, and she needed to find out more about their connection. Ignoring her own feelings of jealousy, she focused on her plan to gather information about Rose before confronting Nicholas.Determined to keep her intentions hidden, Ellen decided to visit the cafe owned by Rose, using the guise of a regular customer. She followed all the information she got from her spies before coming to this city. Ellen walked into the cafe with a practiced smile, trying to appear like any other customer. She approached the counter where Bryan was busy preparing a cup of coffee."Hi there," Ellen greeted warmly. "I heard you have some amazing coffee here. Mind if I try your special blend?"Bryan flashed a friendly smile. "Of course! Our special blend is one of our bestsellers. I'll get that for you right away."As Bryan prepared her coffee, Elle
Restlessness consumed Kay after he received the call from his father, Don Bernardo, about finding Rose. He couldn't shake off the mix of emotions swirling inside him. He knew he had to talk to someone about this, but he wasn't ready to burden Rose with his worries. Rose sat beside him with smile, but she could sense that something was bothering him. "Is everything alright, Kay?" she asked with concern.He hesitated for a moment, trying to hide his inner turmoil. "I'm fine, Rose," he replied, offering her a weak smile. "Just a little tired, that's all."In truth, Kay couldn't bear the thought of his father getting involved with Rose again. He remembered all too well the pain and suffering she had endured in the past, and he couldn't bear to see her hurt again. He knew that Don Bernardo's intentions were not even pure, and he had to find a way to protect Rose from his father's manipulative grasp.Leaving Rose's house momentarily, Kay felt a sense of urgency to find Nicholas and
Ever since Ellen discovered that Nicholas had seen Rose in Vernice City, her mind had been restless with a mix of emotions. Jealousy, anger, and fear clouded her thoughts, pushing her to take action. She wanted to rush to Vernice City immediately, but she knew she had to be strategic about her next move.For a few months now, Ellen had been secretly gathering information about Don Bernardo, the man who had been searching for Rose as well. She has been investigating the organization Rose came from, and she found out that man is the leader Rose screwed over. She had learned about him through her contacts, and she had been waiting for the right opportunity to approach him.She saw an opportunity in this, realizing that she could use this knowledge to her advantage. She believed that collaborating with Don Bernardo could give her the upper hand in getting rid of Rose. It was a calculated move to secure her position in Nicholas's life. Despite her restless emotions, Ellen is a very cu

As Rose entered her home, her mind was still spinning with the weight of the conversation she had with Nicholas. She was torn between the past pain and the glimmer of hope that they could find happiness again. As she turned around, she saw Kay waiting for her, concern evident in his eyes."Hey, Rose. How did it go?" Kay asked gently.Rose took a deep breath and sank into a chair, feeling the weight of the decision ahead of her. "It was... overwhelming," she replied honestly. "Nicholas wants us to give it another chance, to be a family again."Kay nodded, understanding the complexity of the situation. "And how do you feel about it?" he asked, trying to gauge her emotions.Rose hesitated, her heart conflicted. "I still love him, Kay," she admitted, her voice soft. "But I'm scared. Scared of getting hurt again, and scared of hurting Tristan."Kay sat beside her, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. "I understand," he said gently. "You have to do what feels right for you and Tri
