Chapter 63 Rose shook her head heavily at her Grandmother's suggestion. “No, Grandma. I won't do that.” “That what?” “I want to abort the baby.” “What? Abort? That'll never happen.” Grandma Isabella stood up immediately from the bed where she had sat. Her face filled with frustration and anger as she looked at Rose. “You're not going to do that.” She declared, mean of every word that proceeded from her mouth. Grandma Isabella then managed to cool down her temperature and took back her position on the bed. She held Rose's hands softly as she began to speak, her voice was filled with emotions. “Rose?” Grandma Isabella began emotionally and Rose kept silent, allowing her to finish her words. “Do you know what you're trying to do to yourself just because of the hatred you have toward Michael? You want to abort the child in you?” She rhetorically asked. “Come to think of it, if I had aborted mine many years ago thereby terminating my son, Stephen, your father. Would you h
Chapter 64 Bang! Bang! It was the loud sound that came from the living room, and everyone halted, looking at each other, surprised. “What's happening at the party?” Rose asked rhetorically and immediately trailed down the stairs and the rest immediately followed behind her with racing heartbeats. Meanwhile, in the living room, the music had abruptly stopped after Stephen flung one of the bottles of wine to the floor. Everywhere was silent and everyone remained speechless at the sudden display of anger. The woman who had confirmed that the wines were actually genuine and not fake ones, shook her head. Her face wore with pity as she mumbled to herself. “He's going to regret doing this. He damaged the bottle even after I told him they were the original ones. He really needs to control his anger.” She said, shaking her head as she watched Stephen grab the second bottle. “I won't risk my mother's life with these fake wines.” Stephen's thunderous voice was heard in the liv
Chapter 65 He took a deep breath while everyone remained silent and was watching the scene. “Rose, I'm ready to give you the best support you have ever wanted. I'm ready to help you get the contract with Golden Group of Companies. Just accept to be my wife, Rose.” Fred immediately fell on his knees in front of Rose as he said. Rose glanced down at him, surprised by his action. A hint of shame flashed through her eyes. She hesitated for a while, short of words. “What are you doing, Fred?” She asked. “Doing what every man ought to do,” Fred replied, still on his knees. Maria and Stephen smiled lightly to themselves, feeling happy that the right time for their daughter to get well-treated had just arrived. While Ella and Grandma Isabella felt disgusted looking at Fred. “Please, get up,” Rose ordered. Fred faltered but he finally stood up, wearing a smiley face to get a good response from Rose. After standing on his feet, Fred looked Rose straight in the eyes, their ga
Chapter 66 “Sir, there's something important I need you to know so we won't regret it later on.” “And what could that be?” Michael sounded curious, looking eagerly at Franklin. He then looked at Franklin who had been standing since the moment he entered. Michael shook his head and ordered. “Please, have a seat first.” Franklin nodded appreciatively. “Thank you, sir.” He took his seat opposite Michael comfortably. “What is it you want to tell me about?” Michael asked again. Franklin leaned forward, clearing his throat, and began to speak. “Sir, a suspicious and untrustworthy company's proposal is with us.” Michael looked at him.“What do you mean by that?” “Sir, I actually don't have any idea how this is happening now, but I thank God we haven't approved of their proposal yet. I was actually going through some daily news today when I came across news that highly speaks up on how tricky the company owners are. And the thing now is their proposal is currently with us.”
Chapter 67White looked at her with his shoulders squared up. “But one thing…” He said and Cordelia instantly paused.“What's that, Dad?” Cordelia went mute as her eyes glued to that of his father's. White looked at her before standing on his feet. He held her both hands, sending down emotion to her body. “You know you're your Dad's favorite, that's why I'm doing this all for you. And I'll do even more deadly things just to see that you're happy. But I want you to make me proud, Cordelia.”He paused and Cordelia continued to look at him, wondering why he was talking to her in that manner. White continued still holding Cordelia's hands. “I had managed to ruin Limitless Fashion Company's name, which belongs to the Stephen family, just to make sure ours is on the top and also for Golden Group of Companies to quickly look into our proposal, and I also want you to play your part well. Because this is the only chance we have to get back the contract they had once terminated.”Cordelia c
Chapter 68Rose looked around before focusing on Fred. Her voice was curious as she asked. “Fred, why have you brought me here?” She asked, sounding curious.Fred, first of all, admired her beauty for a moment before he dropped the glass of wine on the table.He cleared his throat as he began to speak, his voice carrying affection. “Rose, have you thought about what I told you earlier? Have you gotten an answer to give to me? You know how much I Love you, I'm willing to do anything impossible just for you.” Rose looked at him, feeling a hint of anger that started building up in her. It felt like she was slowly losing her respect for this Fred of a guy.However, she managed to maintain her angry composure, forcing a smile onto her face. “I know you're willing to support me, Fred but I'm just not ready yet.” Fred sighed at her response, his face a frown. “You don't need to think about it much. I have everything it takes to look after you and your family. And if getting your company's
Chapter 69“Thank God you picked it up.” An eagerly awaited voice came from the other end of the call. “Who are you?” Michael asked, bringing his voice low and his tone.“Sir, it's me, Franklin. I got attacked by some thugs, and my phone was snatched away, so I had to register a new sim. That's why I'm calling you with it.” “What? Attacked?” Michael's voice peaked as he stood up from where he was sitting with so much force. The bodyguards that were standing behind him rushed to him.“Sir, what's wrong? Are you okay?” The bodyguard with a huge body stature asked immediately, but Michael nodded his head and raised his hand at him to stop.The bodyguard paused and took a deep breath. “Were you in any way hurt?” Michael asked, his voice was filled with worry as all his attention focused on the phone.“No, sir. I'm fine. I wasn't hurt. I just realized that they were actually after my phone and you know how expensive that is.” Franklin said from the other end of the call, pausing.And Mi
Chapter 70 You're very lucky, sir. I believe your life will change for the better.” He said to Michael and Michael forced a smile. “What did he say?” “My Boss isn't around but my Madam is. She said you may come in," The gateman said. Michael nodded with a smile, thinking it was White's wife. He dragged his electric bike along with him as he strode inside the compound. The gateman opened his mouth in awe, seeing the electric bike. That moment was the first time he saw the electric bike with Michael because Michael had parked it beside the main gate. The gateman stared at Michael, unbelievable. Although he didn't know the price of the electric bike in the market, he was very sure and confident that its cost was definitely high. As he stared at Michael, he totally forgot what was at hand. He was supposed to close the gate. “Hey, can you take me inside?” Michael snapped his finger at the gateman, bringing him out of his daydreaming. “Oh, I'm sorry.” The gateman immediate
