The Great Seducer 55
Ellen walked out of the club trying to find Kay but she did not see him anywhere. She scoffed angrily. She had seen Kay watching the gate when she drove by earlier. She pretended to be going somewhere else to see who the person was. She parked the car somewhere closeby and watched Kay for as long as he stayed there. She knows no one would dare stay right in front of Nicholas's resident unless they want something. After watching the car leave, she decided to follow the person and found out it's a man. She saw the man chasing away everyone that came towards him so she tried. She is surprised to see how good looking he is and wondered what he could want. She decided to feed her curiousity by mentioning Rose. To her surprise, he reacted in a different way. She knows he is hiding something from her. She drove back to the villa and asked Nicholas to see her outside. She is ready to expose Rose though she may not have full evidence yet. If only Nicholas would investigate her, then everyt

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 doesn't matter

Rose is finally going out to meet with Kay. She needed to do this to stop herself from being in danger. Not only is she getting suspicious, a lot of people are after her life. Since Nicholas belongs to the elite society, it's easier for her to get caught. All of her victims are powerful and big people in the country. She also has some clients outside the country. She met with Kay at their usual café and found him waiting at the usual spot. After making sure the road was clear and no one was following her, she made her way inside the room. Kay stood up immediately he saw Rose, he went ahead to hug her catching her off guard. She wasn't expecting him to suddenly hug her like that. "Rose! I'm so glad you're okay. Does anywhere hurt? Are you good now? Do you need me to do anything for you?" He desperately asked. "Hey... Are you okay? What's up with you? You're acting weird." She said in confusion. Why is he acting like they didn't argue a lot and don't really have good

Rose did not know what to say. The problem she has been avoiding the whole time is now here. Even if she was going to get caught, never in her wildest dreams did she think that it would be Ellen. Ellen is the least person she wants talking about her right now. And here she is standing in front of Rose with that picture. "Why? You can't say anything anymore?" Ellen asked with an evil grin. Rose cleared her throat. It would be better to pretend and know how far Ellen knows. So she wouldn't make any mistakes and spill everything. "What do you want from me? You keep bothering me for no reason. You never really told me what you want. What should I do with this picture?" Rose asked Ellen. Ellen looked at Rose suspiciously. The audacity even after she has been caught baffles Ellen. "Are you saying you don't care if I tell Nicholas you have been seeing this man?" Rose scoffed, "He's my friend. What's wrong with seeing my friends? Is that a big deal?" Ellen bu

Rose moved away from the bed, scared that he might harm her. Nicholas on the other hand is confused. He moved closer to her and stopped her. He could see the fear in her eyes that he wondered if she just woke up from a nightmare. "What's wrong with you? Why are you trembling darling?" He asked her. She shook her head, "It's... It's..." She wondered if she was just imagining things because of her anxiousness or not. "Why don't you tell me what happened? That's what I want to know. Your eyes are swollen, it seems you have been crying. What happened?" He asked, looking worried. She shook her head, wondering if Ellen told him anything yet. Of course not! He wouldn't be this nice to her if he knew what was going on. She doesn't know what to say to him yet. So she just pulled him into a tight embrace. "I am fine. I just missed you a lot." She stated. Even though that's not why she cried, she was actually telling the truth. He hugged her tighter with a smile

The whole day, Rose felt weak and sick. Maybe it's because she is stressed out. She always feels so tired and dizzy. She also vomited everything she ate today. Nicholas already went out on some meetings. She didn't want him to leave his work for her so she did not call him. She wanted to call Kay and tell him what is going on. But then she changed her mind against it yet. If only she could get Ellen to shut her mouth, things would be fine. She can calm down and explain everything to Nicholas. Her phone began to ring the moment she thought of going to the hospital. She didn't want to call Nicholas's doctors. That way, Nicholas would not have to worry about her. The less he worries, the less suspicious he would be. She checked the caller ID and it is Kay. She did not pick the first call, but he kept calling so she changed her mind. She picked the call without saying anything. She waited for him to talk, she could hear him breathing. Kay on the other hand doesn't under

"Kay, I need you." She said on the phone, after pondering for a while and finally arriving at a conclusion. She is sitting at the café where they usually meet and waiting for him to come. She could not think of going back as her head is full of different thoughts. "What's wrong Rose? You sound different." Kay asked her. "Why does everyone think I sound different? I always sound like this!" She snapped at him, completely forgetting for a moment that she called him for help. "Alright... Calm down. I didn't mean any harm asking you that. I'm not mad at you either. What's the matter?" She felt guilty that she yelled at him. But she can't even control her mood because of this same pregnancy. She now understands why she's always been angry and having mood swings. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you." She apologized to him. He sighed, "There's no need to apologize. I told you, I am not mad at you. Just tell me what's wrong? Why do you need me?" "It

"What?" Rose exclaimed after thinking about what Kay just said to her. The thought of running away for the rest of her life scared of people who want to kill her. This is not how she planned her life. She already has enough enemies and now her life is completely ruined. "I'm not asking you to run away forever. You just have to lay low for a while until everyone calms down." Kay assured her. Rose shook her head in disagreement, "If they won't calm down now, there's no way they would forever. They will eventually find me and kill me. And this innocent child will have to die for it. I can't... I can't live like that." Kay took her hand into his, "Listen, I'm more unhappy to know you got pregnant for that guy but you can't risk your life." "Then what do I do?" She cried. He nodded, "You just have to lay low for now. Do this for your baby and family. We need to get them out of where they are." At the mention of her family, she felt very uncomfortable. Sh

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.
