MY DISABLED HUSBAND IS MY PRETTY BOY? Chapter 41: Derek's Downfall
The atmosphere in the warehouse was cold and thick after everythingFinn was whimpering quietly in Roxanne's arms as Ciel's men cleared the whole place.They ensured the kidnappers were subdued, same with Derek.Roxanne looked at him, kneeling some few feet away from her.The man who was her father.He didn't deserve that title.He had cracked under the tense situation. His suit was stained and wrinkled.His hair was disheveled and blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth.Even in his pathetic state at the moment, Roxanne did not want to underestimate him.He could do and undo.The fact that he arranged the kidnap of his own son for selfish gain attests to that.Ciel just stood over him like he wanted to deliver judgement.His face was hard and unforgiving.His anger was cold but co

Later, Roxanne was sitting on the plush sofa in the living room. Her thoughts were centred on everything that had happened. The hum of the city outside their mansion felt distant compared to the whirlwind of thoughts in her mind. Her father was now behind bars. Her husband had made it possible. But she could not really rejoice over that fact because, no matter what, the man birthed her. Even if he doesn't deserve that title. She thought of her brother. He was pale and fragile on the hospital bed before she left. The doctors had assured her that he would recover with time and constant care. Even with the reassurance, she could not still shake the fear inside her. She was still thinking when Ciel came to meet her on the sofa with a comforting stance. His jacket was off. He only had a crisp white shirt on, with his buttons undone. His eyes were soft when he looked at her. “How are you?” He asked with concern. She leaned back against the sofa, trying to calm h

“Roxanne,”Ciel spoke as the silent tension hung between them.“If you really want to protect Finn by your own power, then you should do more than just worry about him. You need to take proactive action.”His words were calm but also commanding.It made her look at him for clarity, because she does not understand what he meant.A chill went through her skin as she tried to process what he could have meant.She understands what the action meant but what she does not understand is what he expects her to do, to be able to protect Finn.“I know,” she said slowly. “But what can I do? The company I am…..”“Your mother's company is yours. And there is on one to challenge you now. But you need to secure your position there. And there is an opportunity to do that.” Ciel said as he saw her hesitation.“What opportunity is that?” She asked as she tilted her head slightly in uncertainty.He stood up from his kneeling position and sat down on the sofa with her, adjusting his position.“Curl is ho

Ciel's words echoed in her head all through the night. She was filled with uncertainties as she lay in bed, struggling to sleep. “You can not rely on me forever if you want to be strong enough to be the protector you want for your brother.” He was offering her a chance to solidify her position at her mother's company by competing in the upcoming fashion design competition he had told her about.It was an opportunity to show the world ber strength.To finally leave the shadows of the her father's betrayal and manipulation.But yet…..Her mind could not forget about Reina.She knows Reina harbor such ambitions.And she had stolen her ideas and designs once with her father's help before Roxanne married Ciel.What happens if she decides to enter the competition too?With her stolen designs with her, it may look like she was trying to copy her.It could ruin her reputa

The next day, Roxanne was standing by the window of the living room, her phone in her hand as she finalized the registration for curl's fashion competition.Her hands trembled a bit but her heart was steady.It was now official.There was no turning back from this.She had legally applied to be part of the competition and she would have to start recreating her designs again.Her husband's men had handled the logistics very quickly.And after some hours, they have been able to secure her spot in the competition, which is highly coveted by many designers in the country.Curl's annual fashion event was not just any fashion contest, it was a battleground where only the most gifted designers thrived.Winning it would not make her position at her mother's company more solid, it would also make her name indelible in the industry as a force to be reckoned with.

The day of the competition finally came and it came with a lot of buzz, excitement, tension and media attention.Roxanne stood outside the venue of the competition.It was a sleek glass building in the heart of New York, where the highly anticipation competition would be held.There were other contestants there, same as reporters and some industry elites, as they bustled in and out of the venue, chattering excitedly.She took a deep breath, gripping the sleek black folder where her designs were kept.This was it. The step that would help her reclaim the remaining part of her mother's legacy.Ci had arranged everything for her to be perfect.With his men working behind the scenes discreetly, her registration had gone well, and no one had raised any concerns about her qualifications.Yet, as she stood there, she felt this weight against her chest.It was a mix of determination and anxiety.

The judges turned their attention to the similar designs submitted by Reina and Roxanne after they had gone through every other designs of the remaining participants.Everyone was on high alert to know what would happen.Roxanne already took a seat. Her heart pounded as she also await what the judges would say.The Judges kept looking at the designs, flipping back and forth the submitted work and Reina's supposed evidence, while Reina herself stood at the front feeling like a victorious person.“I can understand mistakes do happen,” she said with a sweet voice, laced with false humility.“But I believe intellectual theft is not something that should be taken lightly. I put in alot of work on those designs to let somebody else lay a claim to it as theirs.”Roxanne did not move an inch on her seat.She was visibly frustrated and angry, but she still composed herself.

Reina’s shoes made sharp sounds against the floor as she walked towards the hall’s exit.Her earlier calm composure was shattered, and the confidence with which she was speaking before Ciel came in was nowhere to be found.She just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.She had been humiliated by Ciel and she could not hold it in, especially when it had been in the presence of the very same person she had set out earlier to sabotage and ruin her day.Everyone who was watching her leave whispered among themselves, quietly judging her for her actions. She could feel their eyes tearing her down and the longer she stayed here, the more she was reminded of her disgrace.From the Judge's table, the senior judge's voice could be heard as it rang out, delivering the final blow to the humiliation of Reina.“After some careful consideration and thorough examination of the evidence brought forward, it is now evi

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
