Rose was tied to a chair by one of the bodyguards; apparently, when they arrived, Jeremy instructed that she be taken down to a strange room and be tied up. Tears ran down her eyes as she imagined how her life would have been if she had refused the contract the day Jeremy offered her.The door opened, and Jeremy entered the room with a look that she knew was not friendly for a bit.“Sweetheart, are you trying to leave me?” Jeremy asked calmly as he watched her struggle with the chair she had been tied to.Jeremy got angry once she didn’t answer him, so he reached forward and yanked her back with her long, curly hair. She fell to the ground with a loud thump, making her scream. She tried to get up, but she couldn't as she fell along with the chair.Rose heard footsteps approaching her, and she felt the chair being raised back to its position. The ropes with which she had been tied burned her skin.“Jeremy please! I am sorry!” She cried, kicking her feet, only making him laugh maniacall
Jack entered the kitchen and noticed Imade was making pancakes. He had decided to play her game, so he approached her stealthily and hugged her from behind, kissing her in the neck."It looks like someone is in a good mood this evening," she said, not turning to look at him."Why wouldn't I be? I mean, when I went out this morning to clear my head, I thought to myself, Why do I hate you, though? The sex last night, I hate to admit, was one of the best I have ever had." She released herself from his grasp and turned to look at him to check if he was lying, but she noticed how honest he was."I can't believe it! Jack? Those were some of the sweetest things you have said to me in a long time." She hugged him. Jack smiled to himself; the bitch bought his act so quickly."Yes, and I am sorry if my actions hurt you in the past. I love you, not Rose. I realize now that she was nothing but out of my league," he said, holding her hands and staring at her in admiration."I tried to let you know,
"When we heard the FBI agents were coming, Michael and I agreed to inject ourselves with a certain substance to protect us if there was an order from you to kill them. The substance was meant to protect us from bullets, regardless of whether they hit us. When you gave the instruction that we both take Rose to the airport, we had forgotten about the substance, so we did as you instructed. Indeed, the armed men shot us, and truly, we both lost consciousness, but it was only temporary." Jack was amazed by the series of pieces of information that he was getting from Dame at the moment."And where is Michael?""He has been looking after you." Jack looked up at Dame in surprise."Looking after me? How?" "When we regained consciousness, we thought that you would possibly be in danger, and so we decided to keep tabs on you and were surprised to see you were okay, although we wish to know who Rose is," Jack sighed sadly."After you both were shot, she was kidnapped by those men. " "Give us th
Later that night, Jack didn't want the incident that had occurred the previous night to happen, so he gave imade the excuse of having some paperwork to finish up.When he was alone in his room, there was something he had tried to remember he needed to accomplish. Like a flash, it occurred to him that he had made a mental note to reach out to Jeremy. He picked up his phone and put a call across to Jeremy."Hello?" Jack faltered a bit; the person who had picked up wasn't Jeremy, and the voice sounded familiar."Hey man." Another thing Jack noticed was the fact that there had seemed to be some sort of struggle with the phone before Jeremy's voice surfaced."Yeah, how do you do?" Jack asked."I'm doing great. So why did you call?" Jack noticed how he was stuttering a bit while answering the call."Well, Xavier called earlier this evening and complained bitterly about the Vladimir issue, stating that it needs to be addressed.""I have already told you, Jack, there is nothing to be address
"There was this time when you weren't home that I decided to turn on the television. It turns out that Jack has finally moved on to someone else. I had my doubts at first, but when he said horrific things about me, like how I was just his baby mama, I knew at that point I had made a huge mistake by allowing my feelings for him to take over my sense of reasoning." Rose accompanied her words with some fake tears and watched how Jeremy bought it."I realize now that my feelings mean nothing to him, and if he had any chance, he would dispose of me like a waste bun." Rose took Jeremy's hand and said, "But you, Jeremy, you look like someone who would definitely have my back in the worst circumstances yet to occur; I mean, it takes a foolish woman to not recognize true love when they see it. All these while, I should have noticed that your actions, though some inappropriate, were inappropriate because you loved me."Rose watched as Jeremy looked at her with admiration and loved the stated th
Rose searched around for Jack and nearly leaped in fear as her gaze landed on his. She noticed how expressionless he looked. Could it be that Dame had informed him of her presence in Italy? Could it be that he had taken a liking to Imade? All these thoughts ran around her mind within minutes as she followed Jeremy and sat down.There was a tense silence in the room for the moment; Rose didn't feel too well, she hated the fact that she could not get along with her act, and she needed clean air to calm nerves. She turned and made eye contact with Jeremy, who leaned in to hear what she had to say."Are you sure?" He asked her in a low tone."Yes, I just need to calm my nerves a bit." Jeremy nodded and instructed one of his escorts to watch her as she went out."Greetings everyone! First of all, I want to sincerely apologize for my lack of punctuality, as there are other things I need to attend to. Let us rise and head to the round table for discussion."Jeremy announced"The rules of the
The meeting ended with Jack having to pick Dame, who was given first-hand instructions to join Viola in Russia. The reason Jack had chosen Dame was because of how smart and calculative he was in the face of danger.While he was speaking with Xavier, he watched Rose pass by and looked around to see that Imade had left the living room, which meant he could break out of character and confront her. Rose, on the other hand, went about relating to other members of the family, something she had been advised to do by Image as a way of earning their trust.She learned a lot from some of the members, especially Norman, who was perhaps the only member who took a liking to her so much that he related to her like a sister. Rose was still weary of Priscilla, whom she noticed was particularly quiet in the meeting, which was unlike the loud persona she embodied."Excuse me," Rose stiffened a bit, as there was only one voice that could have much effect on her at the moment. She slowly turned around an
While they were headed downstairs, they bumped into Jack and Imade; Rose could see the rage in Imade's eye upon seeing her."How dare you? You dare slap my Jack? You are nothing but a whore." Rose felt like giving her a piece of her mind but decided to play the silent treatment."Jack isn't worthy of you; that is why you opted for Jeremy." Rose knew that this was the chance to finally earn Jeremy's trust completely, defending him."Jeremy isn't less of a man than any other man in the world; I want you to know that he is caring, gorgeous, and above all, a loving husband." Rose held Jeremy by the shoulder and pecked him on the cheek. She could feel the rage in Jack's eyes, but he was also trying to control it.When Rose and Jeremy had left, Jack and I made our way to their own rooms, with Jack dropping on the bed. His thoughts were occupied by Rose; could it be possible that she had chosen Jeremy over him? Jack knew he had every right to retaliate against his brother for taking Jeremy a
