A fall

Roseanne took out the recorder she used in recording from her apron pocket as soon as she left the room, she had hoped to expose Mirabel with the opportunity she got to serve Miss Carolina some water but her plans were ruined when Mirabel appeared too. “That sly witch, she is everywhere I go” she spat referring to Mirabel. Roseanne mused over her short encounter with Mirabel on her way to give water to Miss Carolina.“Who knows if that water was not poisoned” she snorted, her face scrunched distastefully. She recollected Mirabel’s slight threat of kicking her out of the mansion for good and suddenly got worried about what she meant.“I will not just stand by and watch Miss Mirabel make plans to get rid of me. I must make known of her atrocities before it is too late” Roseanne thought within herself, pressing the recorder to her bosom. She was fully aware that she needed to report Mirabel’s conversation to either Connor or Carolina but she was confused about whom to report to.Rosean

Rooftop nightmare

Everyone's minds were troubled by what they just witnessed. Roseanne's body was still on the floor, blood was gushing out from her head and soon it turned into a pool around her corpse. It was indeed a gruesome scene to behold. Her eyes were wide open and her lips were slightly agape.Carolina gasped for breath at the scene, she could not believe what just happened and Roseanne was suddenly looking like a ghost who had come to haunt her. A scream escaped her lips at the sight of Roseanne's blood.Jack and Mirabel rushed out to meet the scene too. Mirabel on beholding Roseanne's body let out a shrill cry and fell to the floor, thrashing and cursing inaudibly. Her whole body kept vibrating in fear as she cried.Jack was beyond confused as to what he was seeing. He felt like he was hallucinating and was not seeing clearly, "Was this not the same person I spoke with about three hours ago? How did this suddenly happen?" He wondered, his throat suddenly parched.He licked his lips which had

Suicide?

The doctor arrived and was ushered into the room where Roseanne's lifeless body was kept. He took her hand up and watched as it dropped without any form of obstruction.The doctor became aware that Roseanne was long gone but he still carried out the instructions he was given and proceeded to check for any sign of a heartbeat or pulse from Roseanne but got nothing. Roseanne was dead and nothing could be done about it.He shook his head in pity and finally closed her eyes which had been opened all those times. He also covered her corpse with linen that was on the cupboard beside the bed where Roseanne lay. Jack was with him, he watched sadly as the doctor confirmed Roseanne's death. He slowly turned to the wall and punched it hard.Jack was not happy with the sudden death of Roseanne so he resolved to ask for more details, regarding the accusations she made toward Mirabel.He was not satisfied with the answers she had given him and believed there was more than meets the eyes but all th

Temporary home

Connor couldn’t believe what he was seeing on the table. He slowly picked the bottle up with shaky hands, he was bewildered at finding such an item in Roseanne’s room.“How did she get this in the place? How come she is in the custody of such a dangerous item?” he wondered, opening the lid of the bottle to sniff the substance.His face scrunched in distaste and he gagged because of the awful smell emitting from the substance, without wasting time, he quickly put the bottle away and picked up the suicide note Roseanne left on her dressing table.He scanned through the handwritten note Roseanne had left before her murder and shook his head in disbelief, it was hard for him to believe that Roseanne brought upon herself what happened to her.“She committed suicide? She killed herself, but why? Why will Roseanne let such a thought cross her mind? What could be her reason for taking her life? Was she in somewhat trouble and the only way out of it was to commit suicide? Is she not the same p

New day; New taunts

Connor, after letting his plans for Carolina stay with his parents till he had caught the culprit known to her, left their room to attend to other things only to return and find out that she was not dressed up for their journey.He tugged at his hair while letting out a sigh, he walked towards their bed where Carolina was curled in a ball, staring at nothing in particular.Connor sat on the edge of the bed, he turned to stare at Carolina who did not spare him a glance even if she was aware that he was looking at her. Connor proceeded to rub her legs which were slightly exposed from her nightgown."Caro, you're not dressed up yet" He muttered more like a question but Carolina refused to answer."Hey, we should be getting ready to move you know that right?" Connor reminded her while crawling towards her to meet her gaze.Carolina turned to the other side, completely shutting him out but Connor was not ready to let go."Are you hungry? Should I get you something to eat before we leave?"

Fire for fire

Connor turned and noticed how gloomy his mate was looking, he knew at once that his mom must have done something hurtful to her. "Mom, Carolina greeted you. Why did you not accept her greetings before requesting to see Mirabel at least?" Connor tried to reprimand his mother who was feeling nonchalant about her actions towards Carolina."It's Mirabel I want to see. Where is she?" She retorted instead and Connor boiled in anger, he didn't like the fact that his mother was being rude to his mate."I sent her back home. Are you going to accept her greetings now that you know the whereabouts of your Mirabel?" Connor returned through clenched teeth."What! Connor, how could you do that?" His mom yelled in anger but Connor refused to give her an answer."Answer me, Connor, on whose permission? Why did you send her back without letting me know" she yelled glaring at Carolina. Connor took Carolina's hands and led her to their room, he made sure to close the door behind them.Connor cupped Ca

Bad behavior

Carolina was still deep in thought when Connor entered their room, she did not even notice him enter since her head was occupied with thoughts of who Roseanne’s killer might be.“Caro, are you okay? It seems like you are bothered by something. Want to talk about it?” Connor said aloud, almost startling Carolina who did not expect him to be in the room so soon.“You are back” she smiled and stood up, ready to go into the bathroom for a quick bath. Connor watched as she disappeared into the bathroom, his brows creased in confusion. “Why is Carolina being secretive all of a sudden?” he wondered.Carolina came out a few minutes later, already dressed in her nightwear. She made her way to the other side of their bed while Connor watched her with Hawk’s eyes. “Carolina, are you sure everything is okay with you?” Connor muttered and Carolina nodded abruptly, pulling the duvet so that she could crawl under it. Connor was not satisfied with her reply but he decided to let it go till when she

Kick you out

Connor’s mother could not believe what she had heard about Mirabel and Lilianna, she found it extremely hard to agree with Connor’s accusation.“And so what? Does that make Carolina any different? Who knows, your so-called mate may be worse than the other girls” She bluntly said, folding her hands across her chest and turning her face away stubbornly.“At least she is not pretentious like the others, she is true and doesn’t hide a thing about herself, and that's why I love her” Connor retorted and his mother glared at him.“I knew it. That wench has bewitched you, you are not acting your real self, Connor. I’m certain you were deceived by that girl to believe that Lilianna and Mirabel were bad girls when the real snake is her. Carolina is the mastermind behind this, I’m sure of that which is the main reason why she must be out for good” Connor’s mom uttered with disdain.Connor was already fed up with her attitude and he was certainly tired of trying to make her understand that Caroli

Surprise

After they had something to eat, Carolina went ahead to apply for admission to some of the colleges that were still offering admissions. She was currently seated in the living room and scrolling through her phone when Connor came down the stairs, completely dressed and ready to go out.Carolina stared at him in confusion, wondering where he was running off to.“There you are,” Connor said aloud while pulling his tie to adjust it to fit, “I need to rush down to the main house and see how things are going with Jack in charge” he stated. Carolina only nodded, “any lead to the culprit?” she asked and Connor shook his head negatively. “How is it going with the colleges around? Have you been able to apply to any of them?” he requested.Carolina stood up from her seat and helped him arrange his collar, “I applied to a massive number of colleges, I should be getting replies from them soon” she answered. “Is there a particular college you have at heart? I can get you to enter without hindr

Backfired

The trio wondered what the package contained but since Carolina was the owner, she stood from her seat to accept it. Mirabel beat her to it and grabbed the box before she could reach it. Carolina snarled at Mirabel for being rude, she would have fought back to take the package from her but decided to remain calmMirabel opened the box and brought out the envelope."What is in it, Mirabel?" Connor's mother requested to make her way toward Mirabel to see for herself what kind of package Carolina had received."It looks like a letter. Oh, it's an admission letter" Mirabel snorted, Carolina quickly grabbed it from her hands and proceeded to scan through it right in front of them. Connor's mother stared at her scornfully. "It may not be what it looks like, Carolina might be cheating on Connor behind our backs. Who knows? What she may have received is a love letter in disguise of an admission letter" Connor's mother whispered to Mirabel's hearing but Carolina heard her.She folded the admi
