Rose's pov.

I never expected that working could be fun and exciting. We're working for hours now and I'm having the time of my life that working with Lorcan.

Lorcan is a hard-working guy, I already knew this fact but he looked amazingly hot while working. Well, I didn't expect him to him be so attracted to me, but he's a package full of surprises.

He had been pacing back and forth in the living room, his brow furrowed in deep thought.

After hours of analysis, he finally broke the silence. "You're right, we should do TV dramas," He declared, his eyes fixed on me.

I gave him an encouraging nod.

He continued, "Because TV dramas are filmed and broadcast at the same time. Also, they have a wide audience so this could be a golden opportunity. I should order the producer to buy the script as soon as possible."

My mind was getting weary from working so long. "Sounds great," Still I managed to let out a small smile even though I was exhausted.

"Are you alright?" He asked softly, brows furrowin

    Rose's pov.My eyes widened in surprise when I woke up and watched Lorcan moving around the kitchen. He was wearing an apron and…cooking?!Am I daydreaming? Or is this really happening? The guy who handles huge entrepreneurs is chopping vegetables."Is this a dream?" I asked, announcing my presence to him. "Since when did you become a master chef?"He quickly turned towards me, and a light blush spread across his cheeks. I couldn't believe my eyes, the usually serious and reserved Lorcan is blushing!He has kind of messed up the kitchen but I appreciate that he was at least trying. He looked embarrassed."Well, I overheard the servants say that you had a bad appetite recently, so I thought about making something special for you," He admitted sheepishly, I smiled loving him all over again. "I remembered my mother's recipe that she used to make for me when I was a child. It used to be my favourite, although I couldn't find the exact recipe, I want to try to make it."I took a deep breat

    Lorcan's pov.After dinner, me and Rose were tidying up the table when my phone started ringing. I glanced at the screen and saw that it was from Meera. I frowned in confusion, why is she calling me at this hour?I looked up at Rose who was putting the dishes in the sink. So, I decided to pick it up, because it could be urgent if she's calling me now. In order not to make Rose worry, I went to study.I know I don't feel anything about her, and I don't why it happened between us, but I for sure think that I just sympathised with her and it had nothing to do with love. Meera and I are just good friends.Closing the door behind me, I took a deep breath and answered the call. "Hey, is everything fine?" I let out calmly.I heard some heavy breaths and faint sobbing. "Lorcan!" She burst out crying.My heart raced suddenly. "Meera?! What happened? Why are you crying?!"Her voice trembled as she spoke again. "Lorcan, I...I'm really…I don't know who else to reach out right now.""Alright, calm

  • Wrong Surrogacy For The Devil CEO   Chapter 74 I love her!

    Lorcan's pov.I was silent for a long time. To be honest, I didn't know what to say or how to comfort her. Meera was crying hard, and all I could do was stand and stare at her helplessly.Which was pathetic because instead of being there for her and handling this problem, my mind was consumed by thoughts of Rose, my first responsibility and priority. Whenever I think about Rose, the woman I love the most, a sharp pain pierces my chest. The woman I cherished and planned a future with. How could I fucking do this to her?!Even though I know she has always been understanding and supportive, I fear she won't be able to bear the weight of this betrayal. The thought and guilt gnaw at me, twisting my insides."I-I thought about...giving up my child. I even went to the hospital and planned to make an appointment for the abortion procedure...but when they asked me to stand on the operating table. I... I got so s-scared that I ran away!" Her voice trembled as she cried uncontrollably. "This chi

She was sitting on the sofa, her eyes glued on the entrance as if she had been waiting for me deliberately. I froze in my tracks, unable to move for a moment. My heart raced as she took in my dishevelled appearance."Hey," I breathed out, approaching her cautiously. "You haven't gone to bed yet?"She rose from the sofa and smiled. "I was waiting for you so that we can go to bed together. But what happened to you? Is everything okay at work?" She asked, concern filling her eyes as she observed my troubled expression and messed up clothes.I hesitated for a moment, feeling guilty to even meet her gaze. I wasn't sure how she would react to the news I was about to tell her, afraid that her beautiful smile would vanish from her lips. I didn't want to ruin the stability we had attained in our rela

    Rose pov.The next day I woke up feeling sad and frustrated. I don't know if it was due to the mood swings from pregnancy or because I didn't find Lorcan beside me.I left the door unlocked last night and I know he joined me on the bed but didn't disturbed my sleep. But now I'm thinking if it was a dream or real. Where did he disappear so early in the morning? It's not as if I wanted to see him right now or listen to his excuses, it's just I'm feeling as if he disappeared for no good reason.I quickly reached for my phone to call grandma to tell her that I'll be going to see her because the more I stay here the more his words from yesterday would keep on repeating in my head.However, when I turned the phone on, my insides twisted in anger as I read Lorcan's text on my screen, saying that Meera suddenly had a stomach ache, and he had to go and see her.I should have expected this, it's his dear lover after all to whom he rushed without even caring about his own pregnant wife.

Nick belonged to my past now and no matter how much he pesters me he's not gonna enter my present again.When I got home I received a call from Grandma and I went to meet her after putting the grocery bag. Meeting her would definitely do some good to me and help me take my mind off Lorcan and Meera."Rose, my baby, I'm so glad you could come," She said with a smile, pulling me inside the house. "Come, have a seat. I have something to talk to you about."I sat down beside her, and couldn't help the curiosity as to what she wanted to talk to me about. I have always admired her wisdom so I knew that whatever she had to say would be important."Sure, Grandma," I nodded, listening carefully to her."I have been thinking a lot about this," she began. "And I think that you should also go to the company to help Lorcan."I frowned, my heart pounding with both anticipation and trepidatio

    Lorcan's pov.As I entered Meera's office, I noticed her sitting at a corner table. She was on the phone when I approached her. Her brows were furrowed, and her voice was slow yet she looked quite pleased to whoever she was talking to.After a while when she noticed me standing there she ended the call, and gestured to me to move towards her. Her eyes lit up and she smiled, I settled into the chair opposite her."That was the producer," She answered before I could ask her first. "He was asking about the filming schedule. I had to tell him that I wasn't feeling well and wouldn't be able to consider filming for the time being."I frowned, puzzled by her response. "But I thought you were excited about the film. So why back out now?"Because it's really strange how the producer agreed to her so easily for the position in the film. I know him and he's not easy to work with so how does she manage to make him give her the role and now she has retreated from the movie just as easily. I don't

I hurriedly asked, my palms getting sweaty.He sighed with a solemn expression, taking out his face from his reports and looking at me. My heart thumping rapidly, threatening to come out of my throat.
