I kept a poker expression throughout my meal not minding the occasional stares Alfonso kept throwing my way.I couldnāt believe anyone could fall for what Selena said, what were they worried about? If anything does two were popping champagne happy to have gotten rid of me, but itās okay I have another surprising news that will break the headline soon,I will be back to take my revenge, you know what they say ā revenge is best served cold ā and I will make sure to serve it to both of them even if I have to dedicate my life for this revenge.Alfonso TommasoSitting down by the lake in my Villa I couldnāt help but think about Rose, the anger I saw in her eyes earlier was huge, I mean I donāt blame her I also canāt believe her ex best friend and fiance can do something as devious as that to her while she as been nothing but good towards the both of them.Looking at the beautiful view in front of me, I couldnāt help but feel a bit worried about Rose, she definitely has been through a lot.Right now she was inside the house, angry at me because I refused to let her go. I made sure to give strict instructions to my security men not to let her out of their sight.Rubbing my forehead I frown slightly.Why am I bothered about what she is going through, it definitely is not my business so why do I care.I even asked my private investigator to find out information about her and her fiance, and honestly I donāt even know why, yes I did save her but she is awake now so thereās no need for me to worry about her any more.Groaning, I ran my hand through my jet-black hair. ā What is wrong with me? ā I asked myself," I never allowed any woman to step foot in my house before, and here I am keeping this woman locked up in my house.Even all my mistresses never step foot in my Villa as I considered it my personal place so why? I asked myself as my mind went back to the conversation I had with her a few minutes ago.ā So whatās your plan going to be? ā I asked her, the cute woman from a while back had now changed into a spitfire woman, her gaze facing outside glaring into the thin air.ā I donāt know yet, but I do know I have to do something, ā she replied, folding her fingers into a fist. ā I canāt let the two of them get away with what they did ā looking at me for a while before she continued ā they need to pay and need to pay dearly. āLooking at her I bit my cheeks to stop me from smiling at the woman who looked like she was ready to unleash hell on her ex best friend and fiance. Putting my head down to hide my face away from her, I heard a snorting sound raising my head back up to see her glaring at me.ā Iām happy that I can make you smile with the situation I am in, ā she said, glaring at me.Chuckling I answered ā sorry signorina it just canāt be helped. ā giving her my most sexy smile before saying ā well you are definitely welcome to stay here for as long as you want until you fully get yourself and plan together āImmediately the words left my mind, my eyes widened a little as I couldnāt believe I just suggested that to her.ā Why are you being nice to me? she asked, looking at me curiously.ā Well I helped you I might as well be your helper to the end donāt you think ā answered mentally patting my back for coming up with something so easily.Yeah right helper I thought, chuckling at myself as I continued looking towards the lake, picking up a stone I threw it towards the lake, looking at it run on the surface before sinking into the water.Am definitely not sure why but I felt a sense of protection towards Rose and right now I was willing to protect her and keep her safe from the world, to help her out of her misery and help her get whatās rightfully hers from her ex fiance and best friend back.Chapter Eighty-EightAuthor's PovRose woke up one morning feeling incredibly unwell.
