“Weldone sister, you have finally agreed with me on separating the daughter in law of our family and this poor thing.”Kate said with a smile on her face.
“How would we allow a dangerous intruder to spend a lifetime with a lady as beautiful as Roselyn.” Mark said he was ready to make Roselyn a princess and one of the most beautiful beings in the city.
Don was looking so drenched and lost as he folded his hands, and couldn't make eye contact with the rest of the family because they have all seen him as a poor criminal who is only after their money.
Mr Jeff who was the father of Roselyn and the Ceo of their company finally spoke up against the sudden and rational decision of his wife and his family members.
“I would not allow my daughter to get married to someone she doesn't want to get married to.”
“When she was a disabled girl….. it was this same Mark that tore the cheque I gave
him as compensation to get married to my daughter.”
But Don was the only one who was ready and fit enough to get married to my daughter for who she really was. Jeff said and went to the bar to get a drink.
Mark escorted Jeff to the bar and decided to have a father and soon to be son in law conservation with him, if hopefully he could change his mind of allowing them get married.
“Two brandies please.” He instructed the bartender, when the drink came he gave one to Jeff and took one for himself and he was trying to convince him to fill a divorce for Roselyn and Don.
“I promised not to screw up when I get married to Roselyn, I love her very much and I won't do anything to hurt.” Mark went on his knees to beg Jeff to allow their companion.
But Jeff stood and left, he couldn't come up with a particular reply to give Mark because he was in a confused and drowning state.
Mark looked up and saw Roselyn was about to break her silence which everyone had been waiting so patiently to listen to her reply on the reunion of Mark and herself.
Wow… looks like the real drama just started, Mark smirks and takes a last sip from his brandy and decides to join the rest of the family.
Everyone was gathered to listen attentively to what Roselyn had to say, she went around to look at everyone's faces and when she caught Mark she made a disgusting looking face and went out of his sight. He try pulling her back but she removed her hands.
Roselyn went to Don and locked his hands with hers and said “this is the man whom I have gotten married to and I will spend my last breath with him without anyone interfering in our married life.
“This man saved my life and took me away from this bandage and gave me a new life and my promise to him is not to leave his side no matter what.”
Mrs phoenix walked up to her daughter and tried to make some sense with her and tried to manipulate her daughter into getting married to a man of not her choice but the choice of the rest of the family.
But Roselyn decided to turn a deaf ear and not listen to the negative thoughts and opinions of her mother and the rest of the family.
“When I was so disabled and depressed, many men passed me by saying they don't want to ruin their future by getting married to a girl like me.”Roselyn said with tears in her eyes.”
“Mark was also one of the men who turned me down and said he won't get married to me so he won't be a laughingstock in this city and my father tried compensating Mark with millions in order to get married to me so what is the sudden change of heart.
Mark interrupted Roselyn and told her, she is beautiful and he was ready to spend his last amount of money on her just to maintain her beauty. But Roselyn refused to listen to what he was saying because it sounded like gibberish to her.
Roselyn's mom confronted her daughter with annoyance in her eyes but still tried convincing her for the last time. But Roselyn refused to listen to what her mom wanted to say.
“You people want me to get married to a man who tried bribing my husband to abandon me when I was still crippled.”Roselyn said angrily.
Phoenix was tired of listening to what her daughter was saying and decided to land a thunderous slap on the face of Roselyn and told her it was Mark she was going to get married to no matter what.
Don stepped forward and stopped his mother in law and finally spoke up against everybody but he was interrupted by his mother in law. “Why will you this wretched being stop me from deciding what is right for my daughter and he is not compared to Mark who is one of the most influential men in the city.
But Don said he could tolerate any insult given to him but he would not allow anyone to make decisions for Roselyn against her wish and went on to cuddle his wife.
Grandma nona who was the celebrant finally spoke up, “My dear you should listen to your parents when you were cripple they went through burden trolls but when you are beautiful now you are meant to make them happy and proud.
Roselyn walked up to her grandma and said “I was always a burden to my parents because they wanted to get rid of me so fast but Don didn't treat me as a burden but took him as his bride.
Roselyn's mom was about to speak up again but Don had had enough of this drama as he pleaded with everyone to stop and to leave the party. Then Mark came from nowhere and dragged Don by his collar saying , “Don't you dare come between Roselyn and I.”
“What are you trying to prove in front of the guests that you are Roselyn's husband but you are not her husband.”Don said in an angry state of mind.“When her face was so bad, I was the only one who stood by her side and when she got better you are claiming rights over her, she is not your stuffed animal which you can come and claim at any times.”Don respondedMark was so adamant about the situation and was trying to make his points valid and he was ready to do everything to get Roselyn at any cost and promises to make her rich if she marries him.Same as Don, he is also prepared to fight for her because she had done alot for him. She saved him from a burning which was pulled on by someone which he had vowed to find the person who did it and made them beg for their lives.But first he had to handle the first phase of his plan by saving his marriage with Roselyn and he is ready to destroy every obstacle in his way even if some of the obstacles are his very own in law.Roselyn is please
The CEO announced that he didn't want to see anyone for today, so Don couldn't see the CEO today but he will surely come the next day just like Mark.The receptionist couldn't hold her laughter as she was mocking Don as he was leaving and she was also busy admiring Mark who didn't show any interest in her whatsoever.Mark and his uncle went into their car and were waiting to tease Don before he entered into his Car and left. “Hey …man I can see your car is all banged up, why don't you hop with us in our vehicle.” Mark said, laughing all the way into his car.Don walked to his car and stood by the side thinking of what his next move is going to be and how is going to keep his marriage going with Roselyn, she is his key to his uncompleted mission and success.He went into his car and got a few missed calls from his secretary so he decided to call her back. “I have some information about your parent report,”she said quietly.“Tell me.” Don said looking at the huge company.The Herbal Ris
“Well ... .Well…Well, looks like I am the one that will be getting married to Roselyn pretty soon.”Mark said with a congerous tone in his tongue.‘I am the only one going through with this competition because this man is a coward, he has no balls to pull all this off.’ Don approached Mark, he faked a punch instead he fixed the collar of Mark like a then whispered to his ears.‘Look at the person that wants to compete with me….he can't even take over his father's company and he wants to crack a multimillionaire deal.’ Don said indirectly mocking Mark.Grandma Nona intentionally made this competition to make Don feel bad and quit it so Mark can win and get married to Roselyn and live a rich and comfortable life.She went on saying The Herbal Rise company works for Four Major Families and they have to take their time convincing them to have a contract with their company and crack the deal.She smirked then went on asking if the men were ready for their quests and the first to bring bac
chapter 8- Don sat across from the COO of Herbal Rise, his expression calm and composed. The room was tastefully furnished, but Don barely noticed the details. His focus was entirely on the task at hand. The man before him had power, but not nearly as much as Don intended to wield by the end of this meeting."Mr. Donovan," the COO began, adjusting his glasses and glancing at the notes in front of him. "You mentioned you have a vision for a new herbal product line. I'm intrigued, but also curious—what exactly do you have in mind?"Don leaned forward slightly, his voice steady and measured. "Herbal Rise has always been about quality, but the market is shifting. People want more than just products—they want a brand they can trust, something that feels personal. I propose we develop a new line that focuses on premium, ethically sourced ingredients. Products that aren't just effective, but that tell a story."The COO raised an eyebrow, clearly interested but cautious. "And you believe this
CHAPTER 9 - Don drove home with a sense of triumph coursing through his veins. The deal with Herbal Rise had gone through, solidifying his position and ensuring that his plan to bring down those responsible for his family’s demise was well on its way. He could barely contain his excitement as he thought about how Roselyn would react to the news. She had been his rock through everything, and now he was ready to share this victory with her.As he pulled into the driveway, Don could see the warm lights of their home glowing through the windows. He entered the house and found Roselyn waiting for him in the living room, her expression a mix of hope and nervous anticipation.“You’re back!” she exclaimed, standing up quickly. “How did it go?”Don’s face broke into a wide smile. “It’s done,” he said, his voice filled with pride. “I closed the deal with Herbal Rise.”Roselyn’s eyes lit up with joy, and she rushed to him, throwing her arms around his neck. “I knew you could do it!” she said, he
CHAPTER 10- Don sat on the edge of the bed, staring out of the window as the first rays of morning light crept into the room. The events of the past days had left him restless, his mind spinning with the weight of the secrets he had been carrying. Roselyn stirred beside him, her presence a comfort, yet he knew that he could no longer keep the truth from her. She deserved to know the full extent of what had driven him to secure the deal with Herbal Rise.Roselyn opened her eyes and immediately noticed the tension in Don’s posture. She sat up, placing a gentle hand on his back. “Don, what’s wrong? You’ve been so quiet since last night. I can tell something’s bothering you.”Don turned to her, his expression somber. He took her hand in his, holding it tightly as if drawing strength from her touch. “Roselyn, there’s something I need to tell you,” he began, his voice low and serious. “Something I should have told you a long time ago.”Roselyn’s heart skipped a beat. She could see the gravi
“When I return Don, I will make sure your life is miserable and you will be begging for alms on the streets of brooklyn.” Mark threatened Don as he had been embarrassed and tortured.He believed he had been wronged when Don got married to Roselyn, and he promises to get back at him for his dispute actions and promises to get married to Roselyn.Mrs Phoenix (Roselyn’s mom )wasn't happy with the decision of her daughter to get married to a financially disabled man . She promises to help Mark to destroy their marriage and make him her renowned son-in-law. Phoenix partially disowned Roselyn for making a bad decision and promises to give her a second chance only if she goes back to Mark.“You have to go back to Mark ….to secure a bright future.” Phoenix said while trying to manipulate Roselyn once again.“Well I've decided on my own future mom, and my future is not with Mark.” Roselyn shades back at her mom.Phoenix was so devastated after listening to her own daughter turn against her so
Rise and shine sleepy head….Don was unveiling the curtains to awake the sleeping beauty.Rosslyn adjusted her body to the other side avoiding the shades of the light coming from the window and also avoiding the thick voice of her annoying husband.See babe…Don said holding the legs of Rose but she kicked him immediately and covered her face in the pillow besides her trying not to listen to any explanation that came out of Don’s mouth.But Don didn't give up, he went closer to her eyes then whispered, “babe it is not my fault, I had other reasons for behaving that way towards you.”Rosslyn hissed … “So what warranted you to behave that way towards me last night.” Roselyn said, still avoiding Don.“I am more worried about losing you and less worried about your nightmares about me. After listening to this Rosellyn decided that she needed to listen closely to whatever Don had to day. Why are you more worried about me? Roselyn asked.Can't you see what is going on Don said angry and bit
