A Little Stepmother in Trouble Extra-8
Diana arrived at the company to help her husband interview candidates for his new assistant.It had been almost two months since Roger left, and he still hadn't chosen anyone.The last time they'd talked to Roger was right after he broke off his engagement, and they'd been looking for someone suitable to hand off some of his duties to.They both wanted to go see him because they knew he wasn't doing very well, but so far they hadn't been able to.Diana had promised to help with the selection since he kept rejecting everyone, and she'd also told him she wouldn't interfere with his decision, because in the end he was the one who'd be working with the person.She was only there as a spectator, nothing more."Why were you so late?!" her husband snapped the second she walked into the office. "We should've started half an hour ago. By the way, you look beautiful today, pixie."Diana walked over and kissed him to thank him for the compliment.She knew he was lying, because she'd looked in th

Two years later…After the heartbreak Natalie had put him through, Roger vowed to make a radical change.He left behind the idea of starting a family and searching for love, and flitted from flower to flower, or from skirt to skirt, instead.Why keep looking for it? It made no sense.If none of them had wanted him when he was just somebody’s assistant, they could forget about looking for him now that he was a success.He took over his family’s company, and even though the fashion business was a far cry from the work he’d done alongside his friend Alexander over the years, he had learned how to be a shark in finance, and he’d learned it well.In the two years he’d been running the company, he had worked tirelessly, and not even the pile of scandals at his back had stopped him from making a name for himself in the world of fashion and in the world of women.Roger could have passed for the most eligible bachelor around if his reputation as a womanizer weren’t so disastrous.He’d stopped

Roger got in the car and started driving without any idea where he was headed. The night he’d believed would be nothing but happiness had turned into torture, and he still couldn’t believe what he’d witnessed. With his own brother, no less, and Joseph hadn’t felt a shred of guilt. The only thing that worried him was whether Roger would tell their father.Even though every part of him was begging for revenge, he wasn’t going to take it. He wouldn’t let a woman like her cause a family feud. He didn’t need to ask why. It was all painfully clear, and Natalie’s words had been more than enlightening. She wasn’t about to marry a man who didn’t want to get ahead, and since she’d figured his brother would be the one stepping into their father’s shoes, she had sold herself to the highest bidder. He should have seen it coming, but he never imagined the betrayal would come twice over. Joseph was still h

Roger took Natalie out to the garden.The engagement ring was heavy in his pocket, and his guilt was heavier.She looked dazed and a little nervous.“What the heck just happened in there?!” she asked after several minutes of silence.Roger shoved his hands in his pockets and rocked back and forth on his heels.“That was my family being my family. Just a normal day, like any other.” He managed a shaky smile, his heart pounding.It was going to hurt so much when she left him.“Wow, they’re a little… special. Your sister is really sweet, though,” she said, not meeting his eyes. “So… what’s going to happen with us? You don’t seem to have much of a clue what you’re doing with your life.”“I’m clear on one thing, at least,” he said, working up his courage and pulling the little ring box out of his pocket. “I wan

The conversation with Alexander had helped him clear his head.Without meaning to, they'd talked longer than they should have, and just as he was about to fall asleep, he got a text from his friend: “You bastard, Diana fell asleep. You're going to pay for this.”That hadn't been his intention, but he had to admit that messing with Alexander was one of his favorite pastimes.His father had told him to follow his gut, and if he felt he needed to test Natalie, then to go ahead, but not to complain afterward if there were consequences.His gut was shot right now. Somewhere along the way it had broken down, and he no longer knew what he was supposed to do.Alexander hadn't been like his father.He had insisted that Natalie was a treacherous harpy, just like Rebeca had been, but Roger figured he only said it because he was resentful toward her over what had happened with his wife.His girlfriend had met him when he was an assistant, and she'd accepted him that way.Maybe he'd made the mista

Roger collapsed onto the bed, exhausted, after lying to everyone but his father.After he finished talking with his father, who had shown him every change he’d made at the company in the meantime, he went back to his new home.He’d wanted to shut himself in the bedroom he’d left behind so many years ago and think about his new situation.What he’d imagined and what actually happened were two different things.His mother pounced the second he walked through the door, ready to interrogate him.“Tell me you’re going to take charge and not leave us in your brother’s hands.”Roger felt every last hair on his body stand on end.His mother had appeared like a cat and nearly leapt at him as she murmured those words.That woman was intense, and he had to admit he dreaded the moment he’d have to introduce her to Natalie.She was very particular about people. She didn’t like anyone—or rather, she didn’t like anyone who wasn’t a hundred percent a paragon of virtue.Perfection in every possible wa
