ROSE IN THE DARK Chapter 34
The air stilled, everyone's eyes shifting from Alan to Amelia on instinct. Ignoring the awkward stares, Amelia leaned, her back straightening with a cold, noble aura. She stared at Alan, her brown eyes as calm as a still lake, "Brother, i can understand your plight. Leave it to me, i'll be sure to offer you a suitable explanation". She flashed a thin, polite smile, the corners of her lips barely lifting. Slowly, she parted her lips,her voice flooding the board room with a firm,icy tone. "Have someone send for Mr Liu immediately!" Lady Gu's grip on Old Gu tightened, her anxious gaze settling on the still composed Amelia with a frown. What the hell was this child on about...?. They had come such a long way to let this slide south, she clenched her fists, her teeth tightly gritted in silence. There's absolutely no way she was letting whatever this was happen under her nose, absolutely no way! She turned to Alan, feigning a warm smile, "Oh Alan, you've come here with such proof. But

"Old Gu, do you think he'll come?" Silence reigned, with only the sounds of Old Gu's cane tapping against the floor with a slow, impatient rhythm. He tilted his greying head, his silver rimmed glasses balancing perfectly on his sour face. Lifting his left hand, he stared at the expensive, leather- strapped watch bound to his wrists; his aged features tightening with a sharp scowl. Lady Gu sat beside him, wearing exquisite makeup with her long, manicured fingers wrapped around Old Gu's arms. She sighed faintly, staring at her husband with silent resignation, "Old Gu, we've been waiting for a long while now"."Yet there's been no sight of him, we might as well just end things here and have the police deal with him themselves", she spoke sweetly, her tone soft enough to touch. Averting her gaze,she signaled to Amelia - holding up a small, silk handkerchief to her red matte lips and feigning a small, exhausted yawn."Father, Mother is right", Amelia's clear voice echoed, calm and auth

A soft knock echoed against the thick doors, and Alan sitting by the vanity raised his head. His thin brows furrowing as he reached out, instinctively flipping over the bulletin board he'd spent hours scribbling on. Damn it, such a huge mansion and yet he barely ever got enough time to himself. He heaved, sweeping the desk full of scrap papers into an empty cabinet. Then he sighed, flicking away a stray strand of hair off his face. Turning towards the door, he spoke calmly, his tone mildly relaxed, "Come in". The door opened, and Zeke paced through the gaps with calm rhythm. He had his hands folded behind him, his silvery grey eyes settling on Alan at first glance. "And what are you doing?". Alan stood awkwardly, shielding the board with his frame. "Mr Ezekiel...", he flashed a grin, trying not to sound awkward. "What a pleasant surprise seeing you here, if i may ask, what calls for this impromptu visit?". Zeke said nothing, his gaze now fixated on the board. He perked a

Alan slammed the door to his room, hands shaky and covered in sweat. His chest heaved, leaning on his knees as he struggled to catch his breath. [Host, have you gone crazy?!]Alan turned, ignoring Xena's shrills. His hands running through his now messy bangs, rustling them up even more. He said nothing, quietly dragging his feet towards the bed before collapsing on the soft mattress. [Such good offer, and you turned it down off the bat. You even dared to hit him, aren't you scared for your life?]He buried his face in the pillows, the faint, sweet scent of rose wash filling his nostrils. He squeezed tight, staying like that for a full minute - trying to process what just happened. Then he rolled over, calmly collecting his thoughts as he sat up. A good offer....?, he stared at the blue screen only he could see with a low scowl. "What's good about being another man's boy toy, huh?. Tell me, what's so good about it?!", Alan scoffed, tossing one of the pillows to the ground with a th

"Go ahead, i'm listening", Zeke stared at Alan, his molten silver eyes glistening with interest. "We made a deal, and you promised to help me bring down the Gu corporation", Alan paused, his calm voice never faltering. It was almost as if he were discussing a mere business transaction and not the demise of his family's business. Zeke smirked, the corners of his lips twitching with pure, unfiltered intrigue. He tilted his head to the side, sizing up Alan with his deep set eyes. "Yeah, i remembered making that promise. But -". Alan sucked in a sharp breath, his heart racing wildly. In a corner where Zeke couldn't see, Alan dug his fingers deep into his palms - desperately trying to soothe his panicking nerves.But.... but what?!. Alan's thin brows furrowed deeply, his expression pale as if fearing the worst. Was he trying to back out now, at a critical time like this?!. What could he do, this man had basically been his last bet on actually completing his mission. How was he supposed

Alan perched by the window, the cool breeze carrying a faint scent of fresh pine leaves and cherry blossoms. He exhaled, his elbow resting against the window pane, chin buried in his right palm. It's been three days since he fully recuperated, staying locked within these grand walls while enduring the silence. It wasn't exactly him being confined, it's just that he wasn't given the liberty to move around of his own free will. Everywhere he went, he was being trailed by bulky bodyguards with frightfully scarred faces. They barely ever smiled, each wearing dreadfully stern expressions while looking at him like he was some pitifully, trapped prey that they weren't allowed to touch.And the maids around here were no different, sure they served his meals and provided him change of clothes, but they also avoided every form of contact. And when they were done....they often scurried away as if running from a plague. Alan shut his eyes, quietly enjoying the refreshingly calm breeze. Whatev

The two thugs froze, eyes locked in on the half-conscious Alan resting limply in a strange man's arms. Then straying over to the armed entourage, and over again at Alan; almost as if caught up in a dilemma.They glanced at each other for a brief second, nodding in silent agreement; they couldn't le

Damn it, damn it!! Alan wrapped his arm around Melissa's half-limped body,as he ran through the hallways. His breathing labored, eyes drowsy - the world somehow seemed to spin rapidly under his feet.He stumbled, loosing his balance before crashing his shoulders

Melissa stepped into the office, dazed. Cold sweat made strands of her thick curls to cling to her fair skin as she kept her gaze fixated on the floors. "What happened..?, you seemed to be taking a long while to return. I was just starting to get worried that you'd been kidnapped on your way here.
ROSE IN THE DARK CHAPTER 15
Melissa stared at the shut door, arms wrapped tightly around a file. Donning a small pout while adjusting the thin frame of her glasses. What's with his attitude...?She turned around in a huff, her soft gaze lingering on the crowd of employees who for strange reasons, seemed more interested in he
