After the attack, Roxanne was back to her normal self and work mode again. She adjusted her blazer as she stepped through the glass doors of Bellamy Couture.The fragrance of fresh flowers filled the air, but the company was becoming hot lately and she is not here to act cold.Today is not just another work day for her. It's the day she will be resuming as a senior manager in the design department.An official announcement had been made earlier that morning in that regard.It was a significant win for her, as it's a step closer to reclaiming her mother's legacy, and this time, no one, not even Derek, not Reina, nor Evelyn, would stop her.She walked across the lobby, as her heels clicked with confidence.Heads turned as she walked, some whispered in admiration and others with jealousy.But she did not care. Let them talk. She had earned her place and she was not going anywhere.She got into t

She could not sleep.She laid awake in bed. She had gone to get tea because of her unease and inability to sleep, then Ciel gave her more reason for the sleep not to come at all.For two hours non stop, she has been thinking about his proposal.His words kept echoing in his mind.“Let us have a baby.”It did not make sense to have a baby now, when she was battling many things.Why would he ask for something so serious?She was frustrated. This was on another level entirely.She was still thinking when Ciel came back to the room where she was.She turned to him as he walked in.He looked sharp even in the dim darkness.“You are still awake.” He said with a low voice.“I could not really sleep after what you said. Do you just expect me to act like it is a normal thing for you to have asked me?” She snapped.He crossed his arms, and leaned against the

Sitting in the study of her bedroom, Roxanne sat on a chair as she held the legal documents that Ciel had given to her some days ago.She is aware now that the wealth she thought belonged to her father was her mother's and after her death, it was supposed to be hers and Finn's.Yet it was stolen by her father.She had been fighting to reclaim it but the fight seemed to get brutal as each day go by.Sometimes, she wondered why her mother left all the wealth to her and her brother, when her husband could have been the sole heir, given that they were married.But she was not around to answer that question now, and it stressed her.She felt stretched too thin, between her father's endless schemes, and Ciel's sudden demand for a baby, and her fight to get her inheritance back.Her phone rang out, jolting her out of her thoughts. When she saw the caller ID, she became restless. It w

Three days after the encounter at work, Roxanne was at home. She was trying to sleep but it seemed to elude her. Even the quiet of the mansion could not lure her to sleep. There is a quiet unease in her mind. She was determined to be strong now and given the support from her husband, she should be confident but she knew her father. Derek Renwick would not idle away while she tries to reclaim her inheritance. She decided to get a drink to calm her nerves. She was recalling the events of the past few days as she prepared the tea Sipping the drink, all the past events lately replayed in her mind. She knew her father's other business was beginning to crumble and it was due to Ciel's threat. She should be overjoyed but she knew better. Derek is a man that doesn't like to lose. If he was desperate, he would find a way to strike back. And Derek surely did. Earlier in the day, she had received a simple but chilling threat on her phone. “If you want your brother to survive, stop m

The next day, after work, Roxanne was home.She was exhausted. Work has been hectic. She could not walk around without noticing suspicious looks from some of the workers.She would not deny her father's influence here. He had been managing it for years though. She dropped her bag on the table and let out a deep breath.She wished her evening for just go without hitches.But peace was not something she had been used to because of her family.She noticed a black box in the middle of the dinning table. She didn't see it there that morning.She looked at it again. There was no name, and no sign of who had delivered it.She was surprised.She wanted to leave it there but she was curious.She decided to open it.Inside the box were medical words. And Finn's name was on it. It looked like private informations tha

At her office in her mother's company, Roxanne stood in the middle, looking through the windows.Her mind was filled with the threatening note she got the previous day about Finn.Ciel had told her to focus on her work but she was finding it hard to do. He did not tell her what he had done.But one thing was sure, she won't let her father win this, no matter the threat he poses to her.Her father had been controlling her for years and she had obediently obeyed him but that is not going to happen again.Someone knocked on her door, and before she could answer it, Ciel walked in authoritatively.His face carried an expression that made her heart skipped.“You are working late again.” He said to her.“There is a lot to do if I want to stay ahead.” She said as she forced a smile.“Are you sure it's just work that is making you work late?” Ciel asked as he walked closer to her. “Most of your worker

Reina was pacing her bedroom as she held on to her phone tightly, waiting for a message that seems to be taking forever to enter.Things were not going the way she planned after the wedding of Roxanne and Ciel.She did not think Roxanne would have a change of life just like that.She had thought she would be doomed to a life of Instability because she would be the wife of a disabled man, even if he was a billionaire.And now , the same Roxanne is now gaining ground in the company she was supposed to take over soon as the CEO.And all her efforts to thwart her plans had been futile, made possible by the protection of Ciel Sebastien, her husband.All her attempts to humiliate Roxanne or make her look weak had failed, and now, Ciel's influence is crumbling her father's business.And if things do not change as soon as possible, she will have nothing in the end.

Roxanne nodded at what Ciel said and prepared to get it done.She arrived at work the next day with a strange sense of confidence.She had been able to get information that could exonerate her and she could not wait to clear the air once and for all.She had told the CEO to call for a meeting that morning.Employees avoided her as she walked towards the boardroom that morning.It was obvious the embezzlement accusations had spread to every corner of the company.But this morning, everything would change.She stepped into the boardroom where the senior board members were already seated.The whole atmosphere felt heavy.And her father was seated at the head of the table with a smooth expression.She took her seat as she placed a thick folder on the table.“Good morning, gentlemen.” She said with a clear voice.

Ciel could not answer the question Roxanne asked him.He only sighed, and took her hand.He led back into their room for the night.They would be spending the night at his parent's house.The night was heavy, and it covered the whole area in a very quiet serenity.The estate lights were shining over the trimmed hedges and the still fountains located in the central location of the estate.It lit up the whole place.By the time they retired Into their guest suite, Roxanne freshened up and stood by the tall window.Ordinarily, she should have been tired after everything that happened during the day, but her mind was too restless to be still.She knew she and Ciel could not return home that night, especially after what happened at the dinner.It would feel awkward, especially since Ciel's family didn't hide their hostility towards him.His mother had offered for them to stay behind.Ciel had accepted with the usual casual and disinterested way he does things.She could see that the whole

She had asked the question because of what had happened at the dinner earlier that day. She was sitting beside Ciel in the big dinning hall of the mansion. It was a beautiful sight. But she could feel it also. She could see that his family objects to him even if it's not loud. It felt like he did not belong there. And it made her angry. It was clear Ciel was more sharp, powerful, and far more wiser than these so called family members who behaved as if they were above every other persons. But, they act like he was not their own blood. As if he was an outsider. She had no idea why it was like that. But she knew one thing. She would not sit back and let them treat him that way. During the dinner, Rex, had leaned back in his chair with a smirk in his face that was infuriating. He had been stealing glances at Ciel all through the dinner, throwing subtle sharp remarks towards fim, disguising it as a causal conversations. It was clear to Roxanne that he was teasing him. But w

Ciel’s driver drove Roxanne and him to his family estate.It was a bit long, but she barely noticed it.She sat beside him, Ciel , in the back of the car.She had her fingers clasped tightly against her laps.The windows were closed and tinted.She could see the city's skyscrapers from the inside, same as the beautiful buildings that make up the city and the estate they were in.The further they moved, the more they came across very beautiful buildings.And, finally, the driver stopped at the gates of Sebastien's mansion.It was not just a house.It was more like a castle.It stretched far across acres of private land, which were shielded by tall walls and a towering iron gate.And it has very unnaturally perfectly trimmed hedges.The mansion itself was a testament of old money elegance.It had massive columns, alongside grand windows.And it also had a driveway that was large enough to fit a dozen luxury cars.Roxanne breathed in and out.She had been in high society long enough to u

She just sat there, looking at Ciel in silence.She was angry Reina had tried to make another attempt to seduce her husband.It was quite pathetic.She wondered what she was trying to achieve with the seduction.Was she trying to get back at her?If that is the case, is that not a weak attempt?Or could there be a deeper conspiracy at play?A target at her career, maybe?Or she was just hell bent on ruining her public image by getting involved in a scandal with her husband?That was still weak and predictable.But the fact she did made an attempt to steal her husband was something she would not forgive her for.Ciel could see the anger in her eyes.He had seen her angry before but that was something else.The look on her face was of something he could not decipher.It was not not anger.It was a cold one that could tear down Reina if she was with them at that moment.She then breathed out slowly, as her chest rose and fell in controlled breaths.“I promise. I am going to destroy her.”

As Ciel left her on the green, Reina felt indignation run through her.She stomped her feet on the green grass as heavily as possible.She was furious.She had been trying to hold the anger in.But she had to let it out now that he had left.Her perfectly done and styled hair that she had spent a considerable amount of time to get done, now felt heavy and kind of pointless.Her confidence had been at an all time high when she got here had actually shattered the moment she realized Ciel had seen through her schemes but she had kept a straight face.She could not believe it.She had been subtly mocked again.Her advances had been rejected.Ciel had not even shown any signs that whatever she did had gotten to him.He had not considered entertaining the idea of her advances.She thought she was making progress when he agreed to play a game with her.Only to realize he had agreed only to make it clear to her that she disgusted him.Her fingers clenched around the gold club as she bent down

As Ciel gathered his things in a bid to move away, his mind thought about many things.He had never been the one to indulge in meaningless conversations, but the way Reina was pursuing the conversation with him in a relentless manner was becoming amusing to him.As he turned to away, he hesitated and looked back to Reina.His lips then curled into a smirk.“You know, I heard an interesting rumor, Reina.”Raising an eyebrow, she asked with some interest.“Oh really? What kind of rumor could that be?”He calmly set his things down with an effortless grace that only added to his aura.He then tilted his head a bit, looking at her in a way that seems to be weakening every single one of her defenses.Still smirking, he said.“I heard you were pregnant.”The words came unexpectedly to Reina.It felt like a slap to her face, but she managed to keep her expression neutral.Regardless of how she tried to compose herself, she could feel her pulse quicken as she heard what he said.With a scoff,

Reina had always been a girl who got what she wanted from childhood.And it transcends into her adolescence, up till her present age.And it translated into how she relates with men.To her, she believes men are predictable in nature, and if you can offer them the right temptation, they would lose their composure and fall.It has worked a lot of times and will continue to work.She thought her dad's idea was great, but before her dad finalized his plan, she decided to try something on her own.She believes Ciel may see through what her dad was planning.He was not stupid.That she knows too well.He was a different breed of man.Therefore, she decided a one on one meeting with him first would help do the trick.The private golf club in the city was a place that is exclusively for the elites.It's a place where businessmen meet and make deals, while playing games leisurely.It's also an opportunity to waste money on drinks worth thousands of dollars.They do not hesitate to make such t

“It's cold out there. I need to get warm.”Derek told his wife as he proceeded to the living room.His mind was reeling with the fact that what he came to do had been unexpectedly easy to carry out.Reina had broken up with Devian.He had not expected that.He was here to try to convince her to temporarily abandon Devian in pursuit of what he wants her to do for him.Because he knew how stubborn she could be when she was being persuaded.But she had already left him on her own.The revelation made him smile as he walked to a seat.This was really perfect.At Least the burden of being a manipulative father, trying to pressurize his daughter into making a difficult choice she may not want to make is off his chest.The choice had already been made before he came around.And now, it aligns perfectly with his plans.She was free, and will be unbothered by the distraction of a lover who may want to get in the way of his plans.That said, this means she would be able to use her charms to the

Derek went to his mansion after he left Bellamy Couture.He stared at the big iron gates in front of his house.It symbolizes dominance to him, which was why he had it then.This house has always been his pride and his fortress.Where he had made many of the plans that were meant to progress the family's legacy.Now, it felt like a foreign place to him as he stood outside the gates.But it was his.He had to go in.He adjusted his cap on his head, pulling it lower over his face.He was not sure if his wife would recognize him like this.But he does not care at this point.He just wanted to see them.He felt like he had been left behind and the world moved on without him since he was in the police cell.He was beginning to think why he bothered with a disguise when he came.But he had always been cautious.It was a habit he could not shake off.Not especially now that he had a plan.The humiliation he had suffered at his late wife's company was not something he could easily erase from
