Chapter 011 Physical Assault 

~Rosemary~"I am going to call security and they will throw you two out, that's what!" I fired, unfazed by her murderous glare.Amani scoffed. "You must be out of your damn mind! Max and I are quite popular around here. If you do anything stupid, this hotel will go under."I scoffed in return. "Let me worry about that, will you?"A look of surprise appeared on her face, but she continued, "We demand an apology!"She turned to Max again. "Right, honey?"Max nodded and looked at me. "As a manager, it's your duty to keep the customers smiling. Apologize to us right now!""I will do no such thing!" I snapped. "Stop wasting my time. Take your things and leave!"Amani stamped her feet. "I won't take this. We have spent so much money only to receive such shitty service, what are you going to do about that!"Sucking my teeth, I opened my bag and took out the bundles of cash I had planned to deposit in the bank tomorrow morning. I took off the bands, spread the notes like a fan, and then flung

Chapter 012 Counter Slap

~Rosemary~ "Wait, you mean to tell me that Amani slapped your employee, and when you confronted her, she pushed you and you ended up with a scald?" Sabrina asked at noon after I told her what happened. I nodded, sipping from my glass of juice. "Please keep your voice down. People might hear you." Sabrina glanced around the restaurant. "Fuck that shit! Please tell me you gave her the beating of her life!” “I didn’t. Max was there and I was hurt.” Sabrina rolled her eyes, clutching her fork even tighter. “That bitch has got to pay! You should report to the police." "No," I said, shaking my head, "I want to deal with this my own way. It has been a long time coming, anyway." Sabrina wiped her lips with a piece of serviette. "If you say so." She looked at her watch. "Can we go now?" I set down my glass and picked up my bag. "Yes, please." Sabrina and I walked out of the restaurant and went to the shopping area of the mall. She had offered to take me shopping earlier. As we passed

Chapter 013 Stern Warning 

~Rosemary~Amani staggered backward. Her designer bag dropped from her arm as soon as she crashed into a shelf. Her face turned white, but I could see my palmprint on her cheek. She stared at me with eyes wider than an owl's.The silence was deafening. I had picked up the bag I wanted and turned around before she finally spoke."You slapped me!" Amani screamed, holding her red cheek. "How dare you!""That is what you get for slapping me!"There was a stinging pain in my cheek, but I clenched my jaw and glared at her. "Look at me carefully, Amani. I'm not the Rosemary you knew three years ago. Hell, I am not even the same person I was yesterday."If you dare put your filthy hands on me ever again, I'll break them! Then, I will make sure that when next you see me coming, you will go the other way!"Amani's eyes widened even more. Just when I thought she wasn't going to say another word, she straightened up and spat, "You bitch! You have crossed the line. Max is going to be so mad when I

Chapter 014 Surprise Visitor

~Gerald~Rosemary had my undivided attention once she said those words. I noticed that her expression was serious as she continued, "Here's the thing, I have been thinking. Don't you think it's high time you found a real job? Like a 9-5?"Where is this coming from? I wanted to ask. Instead, I said, "I love photography and the last exhibition I had in the UK was kinda successful. I'm looking to do more."Rosemary hung her head and sighed. "I knew you would say this. You are an MIT grad. For how long would you continue doing photo exhibitions? Last time we spoke, you told me you don't earn much. Your monthly allowance is also not going to be sustainable in the long run. You need to start thinking big."It felt so nice to know that she was concerned about me. My attraction to her was shooting to the roof now. I placed my hand under my chin and stared at her beautiful face. How did I land such a woman? I was still bedazzled by her when she pushed her milkshake into my other hand. "I just

Chapter 015 Entitled Mother

~Rosemary~A shiver ran down my spine. My palm turned sweaty against the doorknob. I stared at the woman in front of me. She seemed not to have aged a day. In fact, she looked younger than she used to be. The wrinkles that were usually on her forehead were gone.It was my mother.I hadn't seen her in three years. Last I heard, she was off vacationing in different luxury destinations on Max's tab. Considering that she came all the way to my home this early, it couldn't be good.She eyed me. "Are you going to invite me in or what?" Her words snapped me back to reality. "Ermm... Please, come in."I held the door open wide enough. Nonetheless, as she walked in, she hit my shoulder with hers. It brushed against the scald that was yet to heal fully. I bit my tongue, braving the pain."Good morning, ma'am," Gerald said, walking over from the dining table.My mother turned a deaf ear to his greeting. Instead, she looked around the small apartment with her nose turned up in disgust."Mom, ple

Chapter 016 It's Showtime

~Rosemary~My mother gasped and slapped her chest. Her eyes were bulging out of the sockets as she stared at Gerald. "What did you just say to me?"Gerald's voice came out calm but annoyed. "I said, you need to leave. You've overstayed your welcome.""How dare you!" Mom pointed at him. "This is my daughter's house. You have no right to tell me to leave, you pauper!"My head suddenly began to ache. I sank to my knees helplessly. I knew my mother wasn't going to go down without a fight. This was going to be one hell of a long day."Say all you want, but you are the trespasser here. I won't have you causing my wife any more distress. Leave before I call the cops."Strangely, my mother became quiet. I was expecting her next shout to shake the entire apartment. But to my greatest surprise, she snorted. "I will be back, you two. I'll be back!"Then, she stormed out.I burst into tears all over again as I watched her leave. Gerald squatted by my side and resumed patting my back. "Don't let w

Chapter 017 Narcissist

~Rosemary~I took another bite off my sandwich and crossed my legs leisurely. This seemed to annoy Max even more. He walked over to the desk and slapped it with both hands. He gave me a murderous glare before continuing, "Are you out of your damn mind? Why the fuck did you buy the land I wanted to use for the expansion of my factory?"Calmly, I took a sip of my now-cold coffee and then cleared my throat. "One of the rules of this world is 'first come, first serve'. No one is obligated to wait for you, Mr. Max Smith!""By the way, didn't I warn you never to step foot in this hotel again?" I added before he could utter a word.Max's face turned red. "It's a free world. I can go wherever I want. You can't stop me!""Oh, yes, I can! This is private property, not some park you can just stroll into!" I uncrossed my legs.He snorted. "I didn't come here to trade words with you, Rosemary. I have had my eyes on that land for a long time. Hand it over to me right now!"I chuckled. "And why woul

Chapter 018 Jaw Drop

~Gerald~I so wanted to kiss Rosemary on the lips. Not because I wanted to show off in front of Max, but because I had been dying to do so ever since we got married. I could already imagine how they would taste: like strawberries or vanilla, or even a mixture of both.Damn! I exclaimed inwardly as Rosemary seemed to pout when I lowered my head even more. It took a great deal of restraint for me to settle for her cheek instead. My lips lingered on her warm skin. I inhaled deeply.God, she smells so damn good!I pulled back after a while. Stroking her hair, I asked, "You okay?"Rosemary opened her eyes slowly. They seemed misty as she looked up at me and nodded. "I...I'm okay now."I smiled at her. Then turned to Max. I saw that his mouth was opened wide in shock. With a smirk, I snapped my fingers. "Back to earth, mister!"Max blinked back to reality with a jerk. In a matter of seconds, his shocked expression changed to disgust. "Eugh! PDA doesn't suit the two of you at all. It's so re

Chapter 019 Secret Move

~Gerald~The ride home was the most awkward one yet. For some reason, Rosemary had slipped back into silence. I kept stealing glances at her, but I couldn't tell what she was thinking. Did Max get to her? How so?As soon as we pulled up in front of our apartment building, Rosemary got out before I could get off to open the door for her like I always did. The situation became even more awkward once we walked into our apartment.I thought of a way to break the silence. Just when I was about to ask her what she would like for dinner, Rosemary plopped down on the sofa, knocked off her shoes, and let out a loud sigh."I don't know what to do!" She looked at me. "What should I do, Gerald?""About what? Max?"She bit her fingers nervously. "He wasn't kidding when he made that threat. I know I acted unfazed, but I am scared. He's a ruthless man with connections."I went to sit beside her and patted her back. "Don't worry about that. The way I see it, he was just bragging. He can't do shit.""

Chapter 020 Lucky Charm 

~Gerald~I turned in the opposite direction, only to see Rosemary matching over in her high heels. She was wearing a fitted dress today, so her hips swayed from side to side as she walked. Nonetheless, she still looked like a badass. I raised my hand and waved at her. To my surprise, she walked past me without even sparing me a glance. She went straight to where my supervisor and colleagues were.Standing with her arms akimbo, Rosemary glared at them. "You should be ashamed of yourselves!""Is she talking to me?" Mr. Hanks looked around in confusion. When my colleagues avoided his eyes, he turned to Rosemary and snarled, "And who the fuck are you?"Rosemary scoffed. "Didn't you just hear me call Gerald my husband? So much for being a "smart" man!"Mr. Hanks pointed. "You! Watch your mouth!""Watch your own mouth!" Rosemary retorted. "Seeing as my husband got employed so fast, shouldn't that tell you he's no ordinary guy?"She grabbed my wrist and pulled me closer once I got within a
