The Great Seducer 62
"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

The next day as promised, Rose went out on a date with Nicholas. She tried her best to be happy and smile a lot. She put the problems behind her and had lots of fun. They went to the theme park, the movies and a very fancy restaurant in the evening. She could not stop thinking about him. He has no clue whatsoever of what is going on. She thought about telling him the truth. Would things be different if she told him the truth? They sat down at another large field area close to the river and a large bridge. They're watching the stars like every other couple there. She decided to listen to her impulsive thoughts and ask him what's on her mind. "The stars look so pretty tonight. It's been a very long time since I did stuff like this." He said happily. "I am glad to have met you. My life changed after I met you." "Can I ask you a question?" She asked him instead of replying him. He nodded with a smile, still not getting the seriousness of the situation. "Go ahead my

"Rose? Rose!!" Nicholas called in panic. He just woke up from a nightmare and he was restless. Opening his eyes and not seeing her beside him made it worse. "What's going on? Rose! Where is she?" He asked no one. He jumped from the bed and searched the room. She was nowhere in the room or the changing room. This made his anxiety level high. He wore some clothes and went out to the bathroom to check for her. He checked his private living room and the hidden room. He did not find her there strangely enough. He was more restless as he called her phone but it wasn't going through. He decided to call James out of anger. James wasn't picking up on time. He was very pissed the moment James picked the call. "James! Where are you?" He yelled once James picked up. "Boss... It's very early in the morning. I am trying to get..." "I can't find Rose! I need you to find her right now!" He ordered, cutting James off. "Yes boss!" James accepted and the call ende

A video message from Rose was what Nicholas received. All efforts to call her number after proved abortive. After seeing the video, he decided to call with every other person's phone but it wasn't going. When he finally tracked the phone for the few minutes someone switched it on, he found it with a homeless man. The phone was thrown into the trashcan. Nicholas asked his men to stop looking for her and left on his own. He went to the field where they went last night. He sat on the grass, ignoring the people around him. He could not stop thinking about what just happened. FLASHBACK After getting the message, he tried calling her number immediately but it was switched off. That broke his heart to a million pieces. So he checked what was on the message. He had a hunch that something bad was happening. It was a video message. "What's this? Why are you sending me a video instead of talking to me directly? What did you do?" He asked frustratingly. Then he played

Disappointed that he didn't see Rose in the room, he switched on the lights after moving away from Ellen. He gave her a questioning and threatening look. She was wearing a revealing short night gown that has too many holes in it. Was she trying to seduce him at a time like this? "I asked you a question Ellen." He stated while sitting down, totally looking away from her. "What are you doing here in my room?" She shrugged, then proceeded to sit beside him with a happy smile. "I was waiting for you to come home. I guess you must have seen her since you didn't come or call all day. I was only worried." She told him. However, he found it hard to believe that she would actually worry about him looking for Rose. He would have suspected her if Rose didn't send that video. He still doesn't want to talk to anyone. "You can go out now that you have seen me. Just avoid me for now. I don't want to talk to anyone." He said, making his way to the bed. "What's wrong?

Don Bernardo is moving around the room restlessly. He is unable to reach Rose or find her. He got a video message for Rose confessing that she got caught and she is running away. There's no way she would leave the city without anyone seeing her. Yet his men have not seen her here or any other city. It's like she completely disappeared. He is more worried with the fact that he might get attacked by Nicholas thanks to what Rose might have confessed. More of his men arrived and they all had the disappointment on their faces. This made him more anxious and frustrated. Rose helped him build up his wealth more and easily for the past five years. Now she is taking that away from him? One of the team leaders looking for Rose arrives with more sad news. "I am sorry boss. We couldn't find her anywhere. No one has seen her at all even in the next two cities around. We also checked the countryside and there's nothing. No trace of her at all." This riled up more anger in Don Bernardo. He ended
The Great Seducer 68
Kay had managed to escape the chaos and went home. He did not worry about his father because he knows Don Bernardo will escape. He flopped down the couch, taking out his phone to call his father and see if he's escaped. Kay's heart pounded with angrr and frustration as he reluctantly dialed his father's number. The ringing seemed like a never-ending reminder of the strained relationship between them. The organization that was once a symbol of power and authority, was now under attack, all because of his father's mistake. It's not like he isn't happy that everything has gone south. At least, his father will stop exploiting innocent people. He feels discontent and anger over the dangerous path his father had chosen. "Kay? What do you want?" Don Bernardo picked the call like he has a problem with his son. "Dad, are you okay? Did you manage to get away?" He asked when Don Bernardo picked the call. He can hear Don Bernardo breathing heavily. He smirked, knowing his father must hav

Rose got to the new apartment she's going to live in at Vernice City. This city is the last place anyone would suspect her to go to. It is very far from her city and is one of the busiest cities in the countries. Even if anyone looked for her, it would take them a lifetime to find her. The apartment is nice and reminded her of her old apartment. She dropped her bag, looking around the place. There's nothing much for her to clean. Everything has already been prepared by Kay. It took her two days to get here. It wasn't easy escaping. She had gone to the subway to confuse anyone that looks for her just like Kay suggested. Then she left the subway secretly amidst the crowd, and changed her clothes. She got into a food truck that moved her out of the city. It wasn't easy as she almost got caught. But Kay already prepared everything with the driver. It was only after they had gone two cities away before she could join the driver in the driver's seat. The driver dropped he

"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.

"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

"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?

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.
