Elizabeth paced outside the ward, muttering incoherent things and silent prayers. It was almost three hours since Zade was rushed to the emergency ward, she had been unable to even breathe properly. No one said a word to her yet concerning Zade. They were just moving in and out of the ward, no one gave her even a little piece of information.She was tempted to call her father, but that would attract too much attention to them. It would ruin everything Zade planned.Roselia ran in like a mad woman, panting and gasping. Once she heard the news, she bombarded his phone with calls until Elizabeth answered and told her where they were."How is he? Is he okay?" Roselia asked between heavy breaths."I'd like to think so. No one has said anything. They just keep going in and out of that room. When I ask them about him, they keep saying I should exercise patience," Elizabeth answered."Oh my goodness! Why would anyone want to kill Zade? He's the calmest person I know. He avoids trouble and ea

"I don't understand you. You have me already, why are you still with that imbecile? He can't provide for you, he can't give you the things you want so why are you still with him?" Lance slammed his fists on the desk.Roselia shifted back in fright. The action made him glare at her, instead of comporting himself.She opened her mouth to speak, but words failed her. This side of Lance was new to her. She'd expected he'd bring it up sooner or later, but she never thought it would happen in such a rash manner. "Say something, dammit! I give you everything you want, take you out on fact dates and you wouldn't even let me touch you!" He yelled, overturning his desk.His laptop smashed against the tiled floor, evoking another leap from her heart. If she was frightened before, now she was terrified.She'd never met anyone with such a bad temperament."L-Lance you n-need to…""Need to what?! Don't you dare tell me to calm down? Wait… are you playing me, Rose?" He asked suddenly."No!" She ye

By the time Lance woke up the next day, he saw shreds of evidence regarding the damage he caused the previous night. Shattered pieces of glass, blood, littered remnants of cocaine, spilled drinks. He blinked, pushing himself off the couch.A small whimper escaped his lips, forcing him to grab his head. The migraine was more intense than that of a regular hangover. Events from last night flashed across his mind. His body stiffened when the first he gave Roselia replayed in his mind.He remembered beating, strangling, and slamming her against the wall. His eyes widened like saucers. Without delay, he flew off the couch and dashed upstairs to change into something decent then he headed to her mother's place.He wasn't sure where Roselia would be, but he hoped her mother would know if she wasn't home. The glare on Mrs Harper's face when she opened the door, suggested Roselia was in or at least came to report him. He cursed himself for acting rashly. He didn't mean to go off on her l

As the auction commenced, Lance's eyes remained on Zade. Even when he asked his PA to watch the man, he was worried the man would miss an important detail so he did the watching as well. He couldn't help but notice Zade's mini expressions. How his brows would raise in expectation when the next bid was introduced, then drop when he realized it wasn't what he was expecting. Lance cracked. The man was really out to destroy him. Everything pretty much remained the same until it was time for his product bid.However, instead of his product, they introduced some anonymous seller who wasn't even present in the auction ground. Lance was furious. His target clients and investors were about dispersing. He specially invited them to witness the worth and magic of his new project and now, some anonymous fool hijacked his place?Lance was ready to storm over and confront them when his PA stopped in."What is it?""Sir, it seems this might be what Mr Harper came for," the man answered. Lance turn

It took a few days for Roselia to understand what Lance fully meant at the hospital. He sold off two of his pricey cars as well as the car he gifted her. Her mother was furious and threw tantrums here and there, but Lance didn't even bat an eyelash. He is more interested in raising a substantial amount to fund his new project. He curtailed their lavish outings, stopped getting her pricey gifts, and sold out almost fifteen percent of his shares in Lance Corp.Even though things had fallen apart, the company didn't seem to be affected by the change. Probably because Lance was selling off properties to ensure the stability of the company. As much as Roselia hated that every bit of luxury she enjoyed was taken from her, she was willing to bear with Lance. She was one hundred percent confident that everything would bounce back tenfold stronger and she would enjoy more for sticking with him through it. As for Zade, days ago, she confronted him about the auction but the man seemed totall
