Chapter 140 ~ Giving in

“I don’t give a damn what the world thinks, Rose. They don’t know you like I do.”She let out a shaky breath, her eyes flickering with doubt. "But it doesn’t matter what you think, Ethan. This—” She gestured to the laptop. “This is out there for everyone to see. Yesterday I was only a simple girl with no attention to her name but look at what’s happening, now the whole city is talking about me and they think I’m a murderer."Ethan felt pained as he looked at Rose, “Do you regret what we did?”“What?”“Do you regret going public about us?” He asked in a half-whisper.Rose pulled away from him, her eyes facing everywhere but him, “I… I don’t know honestly.” “Rose,” “I just want to be left alone, please.”Ethan stood, creating space between them. His jaw was hardened in displeasure, “So this is it?” He gestured with his hands, “One problem and you’re already balling out?”“I’m not balling out, I just need to think alone,” Rose responded defensively.“I just hope you’ll learn to let m

Chapter 141 ~ Trapped

The office door swung open, and Ethan stormed in. His face was a mixture of rage and worry. His eyes darkened as he saw Rose's broken state, her fragile figure trembling on the carpet floor.He had an emergency board meeting because the stocks crashed after the news went viral. Investors were threatening to pull out if he didn’t end things with Rose but he wasn’t shaken and only gave them an angrier warning to have them replaced within 24 hours. Imagine the shock when he told them the engagement pics were just something they were doing for the sake of going public because they had already been married for over eight years.Ethan did many things but never made empty threats and they knew it. No one would want to partner with Ethan’s enemy, he demonstrated the outcome many times and none of them was strong enough to go up against him. "Rose," he said, his voice deep but a soft whisper. He rushed toward her and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly as if to shield her from the

Chapter 142 ~ A glimpse into the future

“Can I pass through somewhere as you check on what Micheal has to say?” Rose asked when Ethan started driving. He was using a different car that the public didn’t know for her safety. Usually, the Sinclairs used a private number plate for all cars so they would be exempted from so many things. For example, if one of their cars committed a traffic offense, the police would just send that over to their legal department to have it dealt with without stopping the car. Ethan never abused this power but Andrew rubbed it in people’s faces everywhere he went.“Baby, I’m not sure if that’s a good idea.”He looked into the side mirror and saw the people who were still protesting remain behind. He had instructed Tom to use a drone for videos and to take screenshots of every dammed comment online. He vowed to make them pay so that no innocent life would ever have to go through the same kind of pain again. “I’ll be okay, where I’m going is pretty safe. I’ll also use a disguise.” Rose smiled.Et

Chapter 143 ~ Not your biggest fan

“How old were you?” Rose asked while wondering how she knew such secrets.Franchesca laughed. “I was sixteen. We both were. But my mother worked for the Smiths all her life. So she knew things others didn't know. Sometimes I wonder if they're the ones who killed her.”"Your mother told you this?""Yeah, I guess she only trusted me, and since we were around them so much, it was safer to have information you could trade as a safety precaution."“So you became friends with Zoe despite suspecting her parents?” “No, I became friends with her so I could be close enough to investigate. Honestly, I never liked how uptight she was. But after seeing was cruel her parents were with her, I understand why she craved Ethan’s love because he was the only one who showed her care.”“But, the day I met Ethan at the bar, she had rejected him. He was so drunk that he told me everything. Although I didn't need him to. Everyone knew how attached to the hip those two were.”“I love Zoe, but she became o

Chapter 144 ~ A white Lie

“Oh my goodness!” Natalie exclaimed, not knowing what to do.Meeting her father-in-law was not on her do list and she had never experienced it before. “Welcome sir. Please take a seat.” Natalie smiled.“That’s so kind of you.” He responded dryly as his eyes dropped to her growing belly.Natalie felt uncomfortable under his gaze and instinctively grabbed her belly in protection. She walked over to her desk and sat down, sighing in relief at the way the desk was keeping her protected. “Would you like something to drink?” She asked when the room fell silent.Henry smiled, “No, I actually won’t be long. I’ll get straight to the point.”Natalie swallowed.“I need you to break things off with Zane. I don’t need to explain why because I’d like to believe you’re a smart woman. I don’t know what game you’re playing or what you have on him, but he has a girl we’ve picked for him. Someone decent and good for him and the business.” Natalie felt too stunned to speak,Henry reached into his pock

Chapter 145 ~ False Hope

Zane’s expression darkened instantly. “My father?” His voice dropped a few degrees. “What the fuck did he want?”Natalie swallowed hard. “We made a deal. He wasn’t mean or anything.” She lied but he saw through her.“Natalie.” His voice had a warning tone that made her shift uncomfortably. She didn’t want to cause problems between them. She was the one dying, the last thing she wanted was to turn his family against him.“Zane let’s just-”“If you won’t tell me, I’m still going to find out. Your choice.”“What will you do when you find out and you don’t like the deal we made?”Zane didn’t respond. Luckily for Natalie, the waiter came with their food. He took her plate and cut the stake into small pieces for her and quietly placed it in front of her. Natalie sighed, “Fine. He came to tell me to break things off with you. He’s decided I’m not good enough for you... and that you deserve someone better for the family business.” She paused, studying his face before she continued “He gave

Chapter 146 ~ A date

“Ethan!” Rose giggled as he lifted her off the floor. “Come with me. Amanda and Grandpa will keep Daisy and Caleb busy for two days.” Ethan responded as he walked to the car that was parked outside.“Where are you taking me?” Rose giggled, feeling like a school kid.Things seemed to calm a little although they were still on their toes. Rose took the recording Franchesca gave her to Micheal who proceeded to double-check everything with the forensics and once it was ruled as evidence, they opened the investigation. They had to search and somehow find the owner of the voice in the recording while Zane and Natalie took charge of the comments and tracked each one of them, They worked as a team, where Zane tracked and sent her the names and she made sure to take full-scale defamation lawsuits, civil suits for emotional distress, criminal charges for the death threats, If they had been paid to do it, they were bound to break eventually.“I’m taking you for a break. You need it.” Ethan pla

Chapter 147 ~ Pain like no other

“Mummy? When are you coming home? I miss you!” Daisy’s tearful voice pleaded on the other end.Rose wanted to do nothing but to rush home and hug her princess tightly in her arms but she couldn’t. “Mummy will be home soon, she’s at the hospital, okay my angel?”“Are you feeling sick?” It was Caleb who asked.“Not me baby, but Aunt Natalie is.”“Can we come to see her too? Why is she sick Mummy?”“You will see her soon, the doctor hasn’t yet told me. I love you guys, please be good okay?”“Okay, mummy! Can we talk to Daddy?”“He’s inside with Uncle Zane, I’ll tell him to call you when he’s out.” “Okay! Bye mummy,” They said in unison.It was crazy how two little humans could become one’s anchor and give one a strong will to live and overcome anything life threw at you because you wanted them to experience the best version of you. Rose couldn’t imagine life without her children. That is why it was easier for her to understand why Natalie insisted on having the child despite putting h

Chapter 148 ~ A secret

“You look like shit.” Rose laughed.“Bullshit, I always look flawless,” Natalie responded before they both burst into a fit of laughter. Rose was feeling better as they waited for the scan results. She had insisted on getting a bed in Natalie’s room and since the VVIP rooms were spacious, they were able to organize one within an hour and she was now settled...The laughter died down and the room was now silent. The tears returned to Rose’s eyes as she looked at her friend.“Why didn’t you tell me?” She half whispered.Natalie couldn’t look at her. She was ashamed. “I don’t know.” She responded, “I just didn’t want anyone’s pity.”Rose stood, she was still in the hospital gown as she crossed over and sat on Natalie’s bed. Holding her hands in hers, she squeezed them as a tear slipped down her cheek,“I’m sorry I failed you. But I want you to know that you shouldn’t be afraid of looking vulnerable in my presence. You’re my best friend Nat. You’ve been there for me all my life. Let me

Chapter 149 ~ Secrets and hidden Camera

Rose’s scream echoed off the bathroom walls, her heart hammering in her chest. Her mind was still spinning with the intensity of what she'd overheard, and the shock of the sudden hand on her shoulder sent her into a panic.“Rose! It’s me!” Natalie’s voice was sharp but calm as she gripped Rose’s arms to steady her. “What happened?”Rose's eyes widened, still panting from the scare, and she pressed a hand to her chest as she tried to regain her composure. “I—I thought I was alone,” she stammered, her voice shaky. “You scared me.”Natalie frowned, studying her friend’s face carefully. “You’re trembling. What’s wrong? What happened?” Her voice dropped lower as fear gripped her heart at the possibility of her being...“Are you sick?”“No, Nat.” Rose’s voice was still shaky as she tried to compose herself.“Rose…” Natalie’s voice softened as she turned her so she could look Rose in the eyes. “Talk to me. I know that look. Something’s wrong.”Rose swallowed hard, her throat dry. She wanted
