Rose's PovThe twittering of birds outside my bedroom window woke me up the next day. My lashes fluttered open, blinking rapidly to clear the cobwebs out of my eyes.Flinging back the sheets, I swung my legs over the side of the bed, heading towards the windowsills to push open the curtains.I was met with a beautiful array of trees and birds flying about it. Standing here in this very moment made me appreciate life and all what I have conquered.Being here after what happened yesterday, almost felt like I was being given a second chance I mean, if Donald can still stand by me and support me after everything I've done, then something must be going good for me.Hearing him say those words quenched the doubt that were roaming free and wild in my mind and if I was being honest, it made me fall deeper in love with him.After reflecting on last night events, I headed towards the bathroom to freshen up and don a new pair of clothes but I couldn't shake the feeling of guilt and regret. Dee

Rose's PovIt deeply pained me to stand before Donald and turn down everything I had ever wanted and prayed for. I could see in his eyes that his actions were sincere and honest…I mean, the man nearly got into a car crash because of how much he was rushing down here.“Rose, I don't think-” he tried to object but I didn't give him the chance.Taking a step forward, I closed the distance between us smiling up at him so he couldn't see that my heart was literally breaking to pieces. “The truth is, I don't deserve you Donald. Not one tiny bit and after everything I've done to you, it's a wonder that you're still able to occupy the same space as me but I'm not going to have to force you to do that any longer.” I sucked in a shuddering breath. “You're free to date and go out, have fun enjoy your life, like you were meant to before I came in and sucked the life out of it.”Donald just stared at me before raising his hand up to touch my cheek but at the last second, he hesitated, searching my

Rose's PovHearing those words being uttered out loud felt like a dagger straight into my chest, robbing me of the capacity to breathe properly.“David, please…you can't do this!” I hissed, mindful of Daphne in the other room.He laughed, the sound dark making goosebumps appear on my skin. “Why not? I can do whatever the hell I want!”My breathing hitched. “But c-can we at least talk about th-this, Dav-”The sound of the tone dialing in my ear cut me off and to my surprise, I removed the phone from my ear only to realise that he had cut the call.Blowing out a large breath, I placed a palm on the wall, needing it to keep me upright so I didn't fall to the ground.Did I offend someone perhaps, because tell me why whenever I was close to achieving something that I desired, other things cropped up to take its place just like David was doing right now.“Rose, is everything okay?” Daphne called out, her voice shaking me out of my reverie.Coughing under my breath to clear my throat, I smil

Rose's PovStretching my arms above my head, I woke up fluttering my eyes open. The conversation I had with Donald and David kept playing in my head. The thought of David taking my child away from me sent terror racing through my body.Even though Donald had told me he would get to the bottom of the issue, I couldn't help but feel as though this is something I need to get done by myself.Rolling over on the bed, I stood up but something caught my attention from the corner of the bed.It was a little white paper tucked into the corner of the bedside lamp.Bending over to pick it up, I scanned it's contents only to see that it was a handwritten letter from Donald.“Dear Rose, I hope this morning finds you well. I know you're worried about what's going to happen to you and the baby which is why I am writing this letter, to tell you that you have nothing to be worried or afraid about. I promise I will make everything right… all I ask is for a little bit of patience. Take care, Rose, I'll

Donald's Pov“Sir, I think I found something that you need to see.” Nalini called out to me.After the entire office was cleared for the whole day and I made sure that David had left before I brought her in.We had been speaking for a couple of days before she showed up.Like I said, I wanted something on David that's couldn't easily be wiped away by the press or maybe his lawyers if we decided to take it up in court.“What is it?” I raced over to her side, abadoning the work I was focusing on.I had managed to swipe out David laptop from his office, after bribing the janitors that came by to clean to give me the access card to his office and retrieve the laptop, living it in her care to do whatever hackers did.Nalini had this smile on her face that scared even me as she turns the laptop to face him. “Look at this!”She was literally vibrating with excitement, but all I could see was a couple of numbers which are later understood to be cold running over the screen down on the side of
