71. The Truth

Rosalie I’m absentminded as I take a bite of the breakfast Anna made for me. I tried not to, but I ended up scrolling through my social media feeds all night, and I found nothing but hatred directed at me. Despite Ares's best attempts, screenshots of deleted content are making their rounds across all channels. I’ve made it into every single gossip magazine, and they’re all scrambling to create timelines of my so called obsession with mt former boss.It came to no surprise to me when The Today's Herald reported on Natalia’s "pregnancy", which only villainized me further. Now I’m not just the woman standing in between two lovers, I’m also the evil wanna be stepmother.I wonder what would happen after nine months and Natalia is seen without a child. Or even a bumb before then. Watching my love for Nicholas being turned into a spectacle for everyone to witness is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. Photos I can’t recall taking are being posted online, showcasing

72. Anna

Nicholas I groaned in annoyance before answering Christopher's video call. "Well, you're a sight for sore eyes." He blurts out after I picked and positioned the phone instead of holding it. I had no idea why he was calling me for the third time this week. Ever since the press conference two and a half months ago, he has been on vacation with his wife. And therefore made it his mission to check in on me, as if I needed to be looked after.I'd feel much better if he stopped treating me like a ticking time bomb."Fuck off. What do you want Harper?" I askex gruffly without looking at his face. He's always ready to show off his tan or the blue waters in the Maldives. Bastard."Just wanted to check in on you. Make sure no one is blackmailing you again," he jokes and this time he earns a glare from me. "Haha. Very funny. Do you have something to say, cus I have to get back to drafting this plan for Mr Zhao." Yeah, Mr Zhao had called me a month ago, apologizing. He asked if we could co

73. Reunion

Rosalie More than two months. It's been more than two months since I decided I wanted to find myself.... sortaI missed my bestfriend, Anna and her boyfriend Ares, considering I was only four hours away in the next town. But we video-called often.I’d been in my head for months, and it wasn’t a great place to be. I needed a change of scenery.As time passed, I had gotten into designing and photgraphy. And turns out I was pretty good at these things. I had an eye for interior design. And for noting something special.After the whole scandal with him, I wasn't sure anyone would want to hire me as an interior designer. And seeing as it was my first time, alot could go wrong. But I refrained from mentioning that to my first client. I was so suprised to have someone put their trust in me. And It was also very nice to work for someone that wasn't Nicholas or in any way close to him.I took a break from my job when I learned there was a group of people using a tour bus to travel round a

74. Plea

Rosalie The picture Ball’s proximity to the chaos upending my life turned out to be a blessing in disguise. In the four days between my meeting with Nicholas and the gala, I threw myself into work with such fervor even Anna, the consummate workaholic, expressed alarm when we spoke on our weekly calls.I have no idea why I offered to plan this event. At the time it had seemed like the perfect distraction from everything going on with be, but now. I wanted to scream.Five a.m. wake-up calls. Dinner at the main building. Lunch spent reviewing every detail and ensuring I had contingency plan upon contingency plan for everything from a citywide blackout to a brawl between guests.By the time the actual ball rolled around, I was delirious from lack of sleep.I didn’t mind. Busy was good. Busy meant less time agonizing over the shambles of my personal life.Tightness crawled into my chest as I smiled and made small talk with the guests. Tonight, I was the hostess, which meant no running

75. Meet Cute

Rosalie “Hey, Rosalie. The usual?”“Yes, please. Make it four,” I said as the barista rang me up. I frequented the coffee shop near the main building so often they’d memorized my order. “Thanks, Sue.”“No problem.” She smiled. “See you tomorrow.”I paid and moved to the pickup area, only half looking at where I was going. I was too distracted by the flood of new messages scrolling across my screen. Mostly from Anna and maybe one or two from Ares.With the way she sent numerous messages at once, one would think she's in trouble.She probably wanted to congratulate me on the success of the Picture Ball. According to her and Sarah, news outlets had deemed it “one of the most exquisite balls in the Picture Balls history” in their Sunday style roundup, which meant I woke up that morning with even more messages crowding my inbox.It was only Monday, and I already had twenty-two new client inquiries, five interview requests, and countless invitations to balls, screenings, and private par

76. One Date

NicholasOne ring. Two. Three.I paced my room, my stomach twisted with nerves as I waited for her to answer.It was ten-thirty, which meant she was getting ready for bed. She usually took an hour to wind down with a shower or a bath, depending on how stressed she was; a bafflingly intricate ten-step skincare routine, and some reading, if she wasn’t too tired.I’d timed my call so I’d catch her after she got out of the shower.Four rings. Five.Assuming, of course, she picked up my call.My nerves pulled tighter.Rosalie gave me her number that afternoon, which meant she wanted me to call, right? If she didn’t, she would’ve simply left. Hell, a part of me had expected her to.I’d lingered in that damn coffee shop for almost two hours on the off chance I’d see her. She went there every day, but her timing varied depending on her workload.It wasn’t the world’s greatest plan, but it’d worked, even if it’d meant skipping a lunch video call meeting.Six rings. Sev—“Hello?” Her voice flow

77. Baby Steps

Nicholas "My sweet girl, it’s so nice to see you!” Freya brushed past me and swept Rosalie up in a hug. She only used the sweet girl endearment for her grandchildren, but apparently, she’d extended it to Rosalie. “The house isn’t the same without you.”I scowled at her pointed tone. She’d given me the cold treatment all week. I was pretty sure she’d burned my pork chops on purpose the other night. I’d forced down two bites before I gave up and ordered takeout. It wasn’t just her, either; even Edward my driver had cast disapproving glances my way when he thought I wasn’t looking.My staff didn’t know what happened with Rosalie amd I. They only knew she was gone, and they blamed me for it.Hell, I blamed myself too, which was why I was trying to make amends.I’d spent the past couple of days since my call with Rosalie planning the date, and my nerves were a humiliating wreck. I hadn’t been this nervous since I was a high school freshman asking out the most popular girl in school.

78. Date and Orgasm

Rosalie I didn’t move back in with Nicholas. Part of me wanted to, but I wasn’t ready to jump in with both feet again so soon.I did, however, agree to another date with him.Three days after our movie night, we arrived at a quiet corner of the Oak View Botanic Garden. It was a gorgeous afternoon, all clear skies and golden sunshine, and the picnic setup looked like something out of a fairytale.A low wooden table stretched across a thick ivory blanket, surrounded by huge cushions, gold and glass floor lanterns, and an oversized wicker hamper. The table itself was set with porcelain plates and a feast of foods, including baguettes, charcuterie, and desserts.It was amazing. And Nicholas lived up to his promise-slash-threat of showing up every. Single. Day. He was there in the morning when I left for my fellowship, usually with a vanilla latte and blueberry scone—my favorites. He was there to walk me home after my workshops.Other times, especially when I was with other peo

79. Love

Rosalie After our date, the gifts didn't stop. They kept coming. By the end of the third week, I was knee-deep in gourmet chocolates, gift baskets, and custom-made desserts. I didn’t care about fancy jewels or flowers, so those gifts didn’t matter to me. It was the little things that tore holes in my heart—the red velvet cupcakes that spelled out I’m Sorry; a rare, vintage Japanese camera I’d searched for for years but had never found for sale. By the end of the fourth week, I was torn between tearing my hair out in frustration and crumbling like a sandcastle at high tide. “We need to talk,” I said Friday afternoon after I left my lighting techniques workshop. Nicholas lounged against a light pole outside the building, infuriatingly gorgeous in jeans and a white T-shirt. Aviators hid his eyes, but the intensity of his gaze seared through the glasses and burned into my flesh. “Sure,” Nicholas said, unfazed by the attention he was getting. He was probably used to it. While he foll

80. A Step Towards Healing

Rosalie My dates with Nicholas had been really successful. And he lived up to his promise-slash-threat of showing up every. Single. Day. He was there in the morning when I left for my fellowship, usually with a vanilla latte and blueberry scone—my favorites. He was there to walk me home after my daily photography time. Other times, especially when I was with other people or exploring the city on the weekends, he was less conspicuous, but he was there. I felt his presence even though I couldn’t see him.I never thought Nicholas Sinclair would become my stalker, but there we were.On top of that, gifts arrived every day. By the boatload.By the end of the first week, my apartment looked like I was opening an indoor garden. I donated everything to a local hospital—the roses of every color, the vivid purple orchids and sweet white lilies, the cheerful sunflowers and delicate peonies.By the end of the second week, I owned enough jewelry to make the Duchess of Cambridge green with env
