BraaakkkDylan closed his eyes as the door to his room was opened very roughly. "What now?""Do you still dare to ask mom that?" raged Katty as she glared at Dylan who was sitting on the edge of the bed. She then scrunched her waist. "Why are you having quality time with a woman who is the wife of our enemy, huh? Are you out of your mind? Wake up, Dylan. You shouldn't behave like that because Rosalind is not on our side. She's just a pawn we're using to destroy Demian from within. Wake up!""What's wrong with spending time with your own sister-in-law? After all, it's a normal thing. So there's no need to make a big deal out of it," Dylan said casually in response to his mother's tantrum. After dinner with Rosalind, he had deliberately avoided this meeting. Lazy. But his mother didn't seem to run out of tricks to find a way to meet him. And tonight they finally met. "Of course it's very wrong, Dylan. Oh my!"Katty was frustrated. Both her hands went to holding the sides of her head as
Demian immediately looked away when he met Rosalind's gaze as soon as he entered the room. What a pain in the ass. He was getting more and more tired because of this woman. "Should I be nice when I welcome you home?" asked Rosalind with a faint smile. "For example, something like ... honey, you must be tired after a long day at work. Shall I prepare some warm water for you to soak in?""Cihhhh, disgusting!""Yes, that's you.""Are you sure it's me?""Hmmm, Demian-Demian. Why are you so hard to joke with? At least give me a chance to enjoy my role as a wife. Is that our agreement?"Rosalind walked over. Without asking for permission, her hand moved slowly to undo the knot of the tie attached to Demian's collar. As a woman on the verge of becoming a wife, Rosalind was obviously expecting a sweet drama between them. However, she had to put up with Demian's coldness and indifference. She wanted to complain, but she realized her position. Because if she protested too much and demanded too
"Send that man's fingers to this house. I want the master to know that his plan has failed," Rosalind said with a faint grin. ["Yes, Miss."]Click. Rosalind turned off the call. After that she glanced to the side, deliberately letting the person who was hiding there hear what she was talking about. "Don't be too meddlesome with other people's problems. I'm afraid it'll make you die early." Rosalind sighed. "Come out. I know you've been hiding there since before."And sure enough. As soon as Rosalind finished speaking, a maid appeared with a terrified expression. Squeezing her fingers, the maid walked over and immediately fell to the floor. Her face was pale. "M-Miss, i'm sorry. I didn't mean to be impolite by eavesdropping on your conversation. I was just ... just .... ""Did Mother tell you to spy on me?" asked Rosalind. She casually looked at the frightened servant. "Umm that... that's .... ""Believe it or not. Honesty can extend your life. So please choose to remain silent or
Rosalind stared at Katty unblinkingly. The look in her eyes was flat. There was no emotion in them. "What kind of confession do you want? You obviously know I'm Rosalind, the daughter of the Johnson family. What else is there to confess?""Yes, that is indeed a fact. But what I see now is not the same as the woman I saw a while ago at the hospital. Confess. Tell me who you really are!""I don't understand what you're talking about. You've been forcing me to confess. What kind of confession does that mean? Please explain. I'm confused!"Katty immediately pointed at the three fingers lying on the table. After that, her gaze was sharply drawn to Rosalind. "The Rosalind I know is a very weak woman, but why are you calm now when you see those fingers? You're very strange, Ros. I suspect you're just putting on an act by pretending to be weak in front of me!" said Katty, immediately expressing her suspicions. Rosalind was speechless. It turned out that Katty was not as stupid as she though
"Sir?"Niel looked at his boss before continuing to speak. "There's a new rumor about you in the media. They say you're a husband who doesn't respect your partner's feelings. You're ... a loser.""Try repeating that one more time. I want to hear it!"Demian, who was busy checking work files, immediately became inflamed when he heard Niel's report. He was so upset that the pen he was holding broke from too much pressure. "Which person would dare to spread such gossip about me? And what did you just say? Loser? I don't think the one who spoke like that is a human, but an idiot who was born with a dull brain."Niel hesitated a bit when asked to restate the report he had just delivered. Earlier before sharing the news, he had a dilemma whether to say it or not. Niel knew this news would anger his boss. It was unfortunate that someone dared to disturb the peace of Demian Stewart by offending his good name. This was a disaster. "Are you mute?" Demian shot Niel a glare. "I asked you to repe
Together with his assistant, Morgan came to B&F Corporation. He had a tense look on his face. He was embarrassed and also shocked by the news that was being reported by the media."Mr.Morgan, welcome," greeted a bodyguard at the door."Is Demian in?" asked Morgan, not returning the greeting. He was angry, not wanting to care about anything other than seeing and talking to his son."Yes, sir. But Mr.Demian has said he doesn't want to be disturbed by anyone. Mr.Niel is also away. If you have a message, please just tell me. I will deliver it directly to Mr.Demian."Ignoring the prohibition, Morgan waltzed into the room. Once inside, he immediately received an unfriendly stare from Demian who was enjoying a cigar while sitting on the edge of the table."Explain the truth of the news that is being reported by the media. Is it true that you and Rosalind slee
PlaakkkNiel's head turned to the side as he received a slap from his boss. The corner of his lips was dripping with blood. Being used to this kind of treatment did not make Niel weak or afraid. Instead, he felt guilty for making his boss angry."What reason do you have to keep her illness a secret from me, huh?" snapped Demian with a blazing gaze. He felt no compassion at all seeing the corner of Niel's lip cut and bleeding. It was still much better than shooting his solar plexus with a firearm. He had tried hard to restrain himself."I'm sorry, sir. I had no ill intentions in keeping Mr.Morgan's condition a secret from you," Niel replied calmly."Sorry you say?""Your relationship is not good. So I thought that telling you about this matter would spoil your mood." Niel looked at his boss. "I don't intend to keep it a secret for a long time. It's just that I ha
"You know who I really am. But about Father, I'm not acting at all. I was treated very badly by my family before. Ostracized and always bullied as an unlucky child just because I was born a woman. However, when I entered the Stewart family, I could feel the sincere love of a father." A pause of a few seconds. Rosalind's eyes glazed over as she continued to speak. "Niel, Father has a very important role in my life even though we haven't known each other for long. I love him. Very much."There was a sense of emotion that rushed into his heart as Niel heard Ms.Rosalind's confession. There was a sincerity on her face that came from the bottom of her heart. Despite having another purpose when entering the Stewart family, in fact this woman still had a human side. Niel was relieved. At least this way he did not have to worry about Mr.Morgan's safety anymore. "Miss, about the news circulating widely on the internet, is it true that you were not involved?" Niel asked. "Mr.Demian is very hurt
