All Chapters of Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Unknown to Amethyst, Venna, and Maureen, their conversation had not gone unnoticed. They didn't think there was anyone on their floor. After all, Venna knew that Dylan had left. Who would have thought it wasn't?Dylan, Alex, Nathan, and Marcus had been passing by and heard the raised voices. At first, they were supposed to leave, but they heard Amethyst's voice, so they stayed a little longer to listen.Dylan, ever the skeptic, couldn't resist listening in on the conversation. After all, he told Amethyst not to go to their headquarters. However, when he heard Amethyst's pain and frustration, something compelled him to intervene.Dylan pushed the door open abruptly. He couldn't listen anymore.On the other hand, when the door suddenly opened, Venna and Maureen turned, startled, while Amethyst, caught mid-tear, froze in place.'Shit! ' they said together in their minds."Dylan, what are you doing here?" Venna demanded, her protective instincts kicking in.Who wouldn't be surprised to se

After what felt like an eternity, Amethyst finally managed to calm herself down. She did not think that she would lose her composure and calm in front of her two friends. Well, at least Maureen and Venna are in front of her, not just anyone who is not close to her.She wiped away her tears and forced a smile, but Venna and Maureen could see the lingering pain in her eyes. Venna and Maureen feel like they're going to have shadow trauma because of Amethyst's smiles. They exchanged worried glances, feeling utterly helpless.In the end, they both just held their breath."Thank you, both of you," Amethyst said, her voice steadier now. He stood up and added with a smile, "But really, it's not a big deal. Dylan is right.”If other people could see and hear Amethyst now, maybe they would think that she is a strong woman who doesn't let the word love be an obstacle to her. But for the people in front of her, this is not the case.Venna frowned, her concern evident. Amethyst's mindset cannot be

Amethyst stood outside her father's office, taking a moment to steel herself. This is her decision, and it will not change. Well, if something bad happens that can change her decision, then it must be that something has happened to her mother and aunt, which is why she is doing this now.Amethyst took a deep breath. This is the first time she goes to her father's office, and because of this, she has no right to step here. Amethyst flinched at what she remembered. Truly, her family is really one of their own kind of shameless, egotistical men.Many looked at Amethyst and wondered why she was here. They knew Amethyst because they had seen her several times at some important banquets in their company, but they also knew what her position was in the family and company—none. They didn't know if they would feel sorry for Amethyst or not, but when they looked into Amethyst's eyes, there was something in their minds that said it was wrong to feel sorry for Amethyst right now. It was because o

Amethyst's hand trembled slightly as she unlocked the door to her apartment. Until now, he still couldn't get rid of the inexplicable feeling in her body. Ever since she left her father's office, she felt something strange. What is it? Was this disgusting? Pain? Bitterness? Amethyst couldn't figure out what it was. Even so, the weight of her confrontation with her family still pressed heavily on her shoulders. She never felt like it would ever go away. Even if she gets married, it won't go away.She closed her eyes before she stepped inside, closed the door behind her, and leaned against it, taking a deep breath to steady herself.With the number of problems Amethyst has in her life, she doesn't know which one she should prioritize.Amethyst was just silently looking into the void while her mind was very confused. The silence was interrupted by the ringing of her phone. She glanced at the screen and saw her mother's name. Somehow, seeing her mother's name in a phone call makes her fee

When Amethyst woke up, she didn't waste any more time.Amethyst stepped into La Xiena headquarters, her movements purposeful despite the early hour. She actually planned to go early because she knew there weren't many people at this time. The building was silent, a stark contrast to its usual lively atmosphere. She carried a stack of documents, the weight of them matching the heaviness in her heart. She made her way to Venna and Maureen's offices, each step echoing in the quiet corridors.Now that she was ready to leave, she couldn't help but feel a heavy feeling in her chest.When Amethyst arrived at their office, she immediately saw Venna and Maureen, who had big eyebags like her two friends. She didn't know if she would laugh at their looks or not. After all, they look like they're too tired.Venna looked up from her desk, her expression shifting from surprise to concern. "Amethyst, what brings you here so early?"Because they know that this is not the time for Amehtyst to enter. T
