Chapter 71: My Lifesaver

Rosella’s eyes stayed glued to her phone. She wondered why he sent a text but she forgot it was her doing. She left her phone on do-not-disturb mode, it was the rule in Bright Valley now, since they started allowing them to use their phone during shifts. “Rose” Felix called out and stole her attention. It was like she never got the text, she focused on him and said teasingly. “Shouldn’t you call me ‘miss’? I’m older than you, aren’t I?”His face rapidly turned red from embarrassment. “I’m not that young…” he mumbled. “I heard you” She snapped “But it’s true, I’m eighteen, and you’re… nineteen?” He raised a brow in questioning but Rose was enraged beyond reasoning.“Nineteen my foot! Hey! You should call me lady, in fact, call me Aunty! I’m twenty-one!… well, in three months’ time, that is. Argh! Whatever!” Her feet stomped against the ground in frustration.She was well aware of her petite figure, many times it has caused similar misconceptions but it sucks every time it happens,

Chapter 72: They want you

No one saw that coming, not even Rose! The baffling announcement left her at a great loss and even Felix couldn’t help taking a step back in shock.“Donovan, have you lost your mind?!” She roared. The condition of their marriage contract was to keep it a secret from a third party, not even Mr. Dalgliesh was aware of this! Then again, she didn’t refute it since the divorce papers would be signed along with the contract dissolution. But now what?He was parading the information around like a trophy! He didn’t bother to respond and pulled her hand from Felix, immediately exiting the room before Rose could utter another word. One thing was certain, a hell of a chaotic ride awaited.Donovan matched to his parked Koenigsegg Gemera.“Get in!”For some reason, he was in a foul mood but Rose wasn’t interested in finding out why, the display he left behind still haunted her, if anything she should be the one raging with anger, not him!“If you have something to say, say it here. I’m not in

Chapter 73: I’m his poison

The tension outside the car was weighing on Rose, her palms were all sweaty and her body shook from fear but she kept her eyes up, watching Donovan take majestic steps to the center of the space. Their leader had a wide grin plastered on his face but when Donn spoke, the smile instantly disappeared. “You’re right about one thing, I chose a perfect place where no one can locate and no one could hear screams… that’s because I always clean up flawlessly” His gaze darted between the men and the atmosphere instantly grew to a cutting-edge point. “Cut the crap! - Arghhh!”The rest of the leader’s words got stuck in his throat when Donovan fired a shot to his leg, automatically bringing him to his knees while the rest of the men watched with horror. It was the look of instant regret, just like the saying. ‘Who brings a knife to a gunfight?’From the start, their aim was to capture Rose, so with their numbers they didn’t think it’ll be difficult, especially with the metal bats in thei

Chapter 74: I change my mind

Rosella’s POV What happened next? Where am I? My lashes feel too heavy to lift and my neck hurts like crazy.Eventually, I struggled to open my eyes and slowly turned over but my body jerked back in shock. I sometimes forget that I share this bedroom with Donovan, I don’t think I can ever get used to it. He just sat with his back against the bed frame watching me with his fixed eyes and it made me extremely uncomfortable. “I’m the one who took a hit on the head yet you’re the one who fainted. How should I take this?” He questioned with a slightly raised brow. Has he been itching to ask this all the while I was sleeping? He seems so eager! I also didn’t realize I fainted, thinking back at how worked up I was last night, it’s no surprise. Fainting was always a thing that happened easily to me ever since my dad died. “If you want an apology, I can give you” I answered indifferently, he was simply just trying to rile me up and I didn’t have the strength for such a sport. “Why s

Chapter 75: A Dress to Kill

Mirable’s POV“Miss Mirable, please sign here”The sight of another delivery man traumatized me. I was really going to lose my mind if this continued. I turned to the side of my desk and saw the stack of different flower bouquets. All delivered this morning!There was no point in guessing, I’m well aware of the not-so-secret conversations going on at the desks next to me. Everyone had so much to say and at first, I didn’t care, but this was really getting out of hand.In the end, I signed the papers, and the bouquet of roses was dropped off. That Mitch of a man has done more than enough!“What are these?”I heard Franklin’s chilling voice from above and immediately locked his gaze. Why was he acting like he doesn’t know all about my struggles with Mitch?“I’ll take care of it” I stated and brought out my phone, I glanced at the numerous missed calls which I purposely ignored and decided to call back. Immediately the call connected. “Hello, I knew you wouldn’t be able to resist”

Chapter 76: Reunion

Rosella’s POV I arrived at Cambridge Lounge in time but I somehow managed to be the last person. They must be super excited about what they had planned for me if they showed up this early. Call me rude, I don’t care! I walked right past everyone seated at the round table and made my way upstairs. I was only here tonight because of Simon, I had a bone to pick with him, elsewise they wouldn’t have had the luxury of seeing my shadow!Sure enough the minute I walked past I heard their clamoring voices and it was clear they weren’t trying to hide their sharp words. One of them even seemed like she was going to charge at me while she yelled “Who does she think she is?! Is she better than everyone because she became the surrogate of a powerful family?!” The hall erupted as I saw from the corners of my eyes a few of them stopping her from following me up the stairs. How hilarious!“Please wait here, Mr. Simon would be right with you”Immediately I reached the upper floor a waitress ra

Chapter 77: New offer

Mirable’s POVEver since Mitch’s awkward stare at the front of his car, he kept giving me the once over while driving and it was starting to get really uncomfortable. Was my new look that provocative or was he just a freak? Of course, these were my inner thoughts and I didn’t express them! I just awkwardly smiled every time our eyes jammed, which was quite often!I thought to put on some music to alleviate the weird tension but the minute I reached for the radio button he reached out as well and our fingers touched.“I’m sorry!” I pulled my hands immediately and the air got even more suffocating.“Why are you apologizing? I did it on purpose”My head slowly turned in disbelief “What?”“I’m saying it was my pure intention to feel your hands”I was left speechless, unsure of how to react then he spoke again. “Is there something going on between you and Franklin?”He dropped the question so casually yet I felt a surge of anger within me, I can’t recall how many times I’ve been ask

Chapter 78: Fame and Fortune

Mirable POVInstead of giving him a reply I turned my neck diagonally and sure enough, Mitch was staring right at me with no intention of concealing his intense gaze. My throat suddenly became dry as I picked up a glass of water but Mitch stood up to raise a toast and everyone held their wine glass up, leaving me with no choice but to switch my option.Even while standing and holding out his glass his eyes were staring at me. Is he trying to make everyone here aware of his weird behavior?!The awkward tension almost made me drink my wine but I refrained. I can’t have alcohol no matter what, the mess I made last time landed me in this spectacle. Cheers followed after his brief speech and each partner clicked their glasses before taking a sip but Mitch was alone, he was the only one without a date, it’s no wonder he could openly fix his gaze on me without restraint. “The dance floor is ours” One of the executives present announced and steadily people made their way in pairs to the

Chapter 79: I’ll have their heads

Rosella’s POV With the annoying conversation I had with Simon which was no different from barking at a wall. I was now forced to sit at the round table with every one of the pretentious people in my class.I just realized that not everyone from our session was present, it was only the selected group known for their despicable behavior that organized and showed up for this supposed reunion and I’m yet to see Adriana. Does she think her arrival will be a surprise to me? I’m sorry to disappoint her but I’ve already caught on her passionate display in one of the rooms. They were so into it that they didn’t realize the door wasn’t properly shut.My, my Jake must now be too busy with his stolen company to satisfy her desires, if she had to look to someone like Simon for it then it must be a case of chronic neglect. “Rose”I heard my name from one of their mouths and pretended not to hear. I’m only seated here because I’m now curious about their special plans for me. Since they put i

Chapter 80: I’ll do anything

“Mr. Donovan, it’s a pleasure to meet you again” Simon’s voice cheerfully echoed as he skipped down the stairs. His actions were quite courageous as he stretched out his hand for a handshake with Donovan, where did he get such boldness?Donovan finally let go of Adriana’s hand and she winced in pain while massaging her shoulders. “Who are you?” Simon’s face instantly flushed red from embarrassment and Rose unknowingly muffled a laugh. He acted as though Donovan was his old time friend, was this just because of the one time meeting to make a reservation for this place? Because the hall was quiet and before Simom could recollect his senses, all attention was focused on the videos on the screen.“Someone turn it off” Their low voices whispered between themselves as they scurried like headless chickens trying to disconnect the massive projector from displaying their ‘best memories in school’“Get me the tape and all the copies” “Yes sir”The workers moved swiftly and claimed the
