Chapter LXX.ii

Early in the morning, Jared had noticed how Rossie woke up so early. He thought she would just use the bathroom so he slept peacefully again but she didn't come back. The fact that he woke up alone, searching his hand for her and he couldn't reach her frustrates him.He gets up and went out, searching for his wife everywhere. It's not that early anymore but he got used to Rossie still in bed at these hours. Jared checked on the sitting room, the game room, the theater, and even the library but Rossie wasn't there. He was about to go check on Prim's room but he soon realizes that there was the garden. He has not checked so he stormed there. The weather was great today and he notices the sky was clear of clouds as he walks to the entrance of the garden. At the gateway, he stops, frowning when he saw Lara and Rossie exchanging smiles. Who invited that piece of marble? He marches to them.Lara was the first one to see him, and she raised a brow, smirking and whispering to Rossie which

Chapter LXXI

It felt like it has been an hour since Ellisa woke up. Since she and Levius fought, she had been keeping her distance from him, even in bed and she would get up right away but this morning is different. She was stuck in bed with him, his hand was resting on her stomach. For an hour, she's been in a dilemma to either just get up or slowly remove his hand. So many what-ifs were clouding her head but she was also getting a little impatient. It annoys her how she can't turn around to face Levius and snuggle close anymore. Her mornings used to be sweet but now it's a battle for her and this morning was the hardest of all. She can't waste another hour for Levius to wake up and realize his mistake so she tries moving away a little but the sheets rustled and she felt him moan so she stops. Her whole body froze for a moment. After some seconds, Ellisa tries again. This time, she is dedicated to getting away so she makes a big scooch of her hips. In her mind, a big grin had formed thinking s

Chapter LXXI.ii

"It's just a girls' thing." Rossie chuckles hiding her nervousness behind it. "She said it has a nice scent.""A kind of perfume then?" he asked, raising his brows. She nodded and he shook his head up and down slowly. "I was almost certain that she handed you some poison," he said chuckling. Opposite to Jared's reaction, Rossie scoffed, rolling her eyes at him playfully. "Why would I need to poison you when I have your heart?" she grins. Cheesy as it sounds, she managed to make him smile."A day after the succession, let's go somewhere," Jared stated. "Do you want to relive the yacht? I want to make it up to you."Bringing that up made her recall that one night. If he didn't explain it, she would have hated to remember it but since she knows, it's just sad and heartbreaking for Jared."You don't have to make it up to me." She extend her hand to caress her husband's face and smiled sweetly. "It was more heartbreaking to you than it was to me. We could have avoided it but I understand

Chapter LXXII

Days passed and Rossie was feeling unwell. It was a good thing that Jared was up so early and she has time to go to bathroom undetected. She got used to this dizziness and nausea but today, it was rather severe and she is literally trying to stay conscious, catching her breath while her head was near the toilet. How many days left until she can tell them? Three? Two? With her state right now, she doesn’t know. She wants to tell him so bad and he would comfort her, be beside and even lift her hair back when she throws up. The pills, she needs to take it now. With all the strength left, she stands up, shifting weight side by side and even wrapping her hand against the doorframe for support. She breaths in, gathering courage again and pushing herself off and to the closet to search for the gift Lara had given her.“Where is it?” she frustratingly asked, making a mess of her things while sobbing a little. Just as she was giving up, she finally found the bottle and took one pill to drin

Chapter LXXII.ii

Rossie had a frown when Jared took a long time to come out of the closet. He was just right behind her. It made her frustrated so she went back inside. "Baby! What are you still doing there?" she asked but as soon as she saw the white round pill in between his fingers, her eyes widened. How the hell did he get that?"What is this? Do you have any idea if it's a lizard egg or a mothball?" He kept staring at the pill and he looks at her. "Did you put a mothball in our closet, baby?"Mothball? she thought. Should she go on with that and use it as an excuse? Does Jared know what a mothball is?"I heard it before from one of the maids. They talking about it keeps away the insects," he stated. "Wh-Why don't you put it back to keep t-the insects from getting on our clothes?" She stammers a bit. Obviously, Jared isn't dumb but the fact that he is also rich, she would not think he would know about mothballs too. He definitely gazes at it with amusement."You're right." He chuckles, turns aro

Chapter LXXIII

Tomorrow is a big day for the family Corporal so the preparation was a real hassle for Rossie. The fitting of dresses even though they just stay at home, it’s crazy. The mansion was decorated with beautiful flowers, the curtains were changed, and so was the carpets. Everyone was so busy and everywhere you look there’s someone. The only place where there was no one is inside each rooms. Rossie has never expected that this succession would be this busy. It was like the preparation of that annual party but this time they say there won’t be people. Mirriam told her so the other day that even if they’re inside the house, the succession is pretty much broadcasted live to them. In the middle of climbing the stairs, she sighs heavily, ascending again. Ellisa was still discussing her dress with the designer so she was thinking of going to Veronica to talk for a bit. She does not know what to say but she wants to see the woman. They haven’t seen each other for a while now. At the door, Rossi

Interlude

“Wh-What are you talking about?” she stuttered. It took a couple of seconds to iron the frown on her forehead. Forcing a chuckle. “You’re being ridiculous! There is no—““And you think we are that dumb, little bud?” Veronica’s smile slipped away, her lips pressed together. “No one knows but Lara, right? That’s the purpose of her visit.”There was no winning it since this is Veronica she’s talking to. With her sharp eyes, she looks straight in her sister-in-law’s eyes. “Did she tell you?” she asked. “No.” She sobs a laugh, taking off the cap on her wine bottle and pouring herself some wine. “It’s not so hard to know every time you’re late for breakfast or when we practice and you excuse yourself. I see you, little bud.”“Nothing really escapes your hawk eye,” she stated, giving a half grin. “You didn’t tell anyone, right?”“It’s not my business, is it?” When Rossie could not answer, Veronica raised her glass, tilting her head to one side. “Cheers to the new heir.” “You look like you

Chapter LXXIII.ii

After visiting Veronica, Rossie realized that she wasn't so good at hiding, maybe even Catherine or Miriam knew she was pregnant. But Veronica also told her that she doubts her mother and grandmother know. Rossie trusts the woman's verdict. As she descends the stairs she thought about what could happen. Just then her heart just starts racing and she feels her hands sweating, pausing in the middle to take a breath. What is happening to her? She always gets anxious whenever she thinks of the succession and her husband getting shot. Rossie briefly rubbed her belly and started taking steps down again. Lara told her that she needed some exercise so she started walking the halls. That's an everyday thing for her and when she's finished walking the halls she'd take a stroll to the garden.As she just exiting the halls, she met Jared. Instantly she plastered a smile. Oh, how lovely it is to see her husband that she did not even notice the frown before he smiled. Jared didn't wait for her t

Chapter LXXIII.iii

Chapter 73.3Like always Veronica was wearing something elegant and sparkly. Ellisa didn't know what to say because the last time they spoke to each other, she was fiery and it didn't end well. "Good morning, dear Elly!" Veronica greeted, a big smile on her face. "We have not talked for a very long time! How are you?"If she could just go back some minutes ago she'd like to interrupt Jared and Rossie. But she can't so she inhales as quietly as possible."Good morning, Veronica," she greeted back, finally flashing a smile. "I am fine and you?""I am wonderful!" Ellisa nodded. She was about to excuse herself and walked past the woman when Veronica suddenly wrapped her hands around Ellisa's arm, making her eyes grow wide. "Let's talk somewhere far from here!""Wh-What are we--""You and me and our mutual feelings for Levius," Veronica cut her off, her tone cheery as if it wasn't a big deal that they like the same man. On the left side of the mansion's lawn, they walked slowly. Ellis

Chapter LXXIV

The live broadcast suddenly cut off and Rossie couldn't see if it was Jared who got shot first or the man who stood in front of him with a gun. She became restless and everyone surrounded her as she started sobbing."Contact the other guards right away!" Veronica commanded the securities that were with them and then cupped her face. "Listen, Rossie! It's not the time to break down! Let's hear it first!""I-I saw the man po-pointing a gun a-at him!" she cries, her voice breaking. "Don't be so negative!" Veronica shouts. "I know my brother is fast. He could've dodged it and even if he didn't he has a vest! So, calm down!""Breath in and out, darling." Catherine's soft voice, she hears and she did what was instructed. "That's right, that's right.""Anything yet?" Veronica asked the security."No, ma'am," one of them replied which makes the woman worried too."Let's calm down and wait for the men," Miriam said. Rossie's breathing might've calmed but she couldn't stop her mind from storm
