“Goodbye, Mr Gareth.”

“Bye, Miss Nowell. Don't forget to tell your mother I've sent the files, okay?”

“Roger, Mr Gareth.” Ria mock-saluted before walking out of the classroom.

Lena walked forward and placed her test sheet on his desk.

“Miss Duncan, I believe you'll do exceptionally well as usual.”

Lena smirked.

“I'm always that good.”

Henry chuckled just as she walked away.

I stepped forward, placing my test sheet.

“Miss…” Henry's gaze drifted to mine. “Alphonse.”

His eyes held mine and at that

    My loud cries floated through the whole neighborhood, but I was too emotional to give a fuck."You came," I croaked, burying my face in the crook of his neck."Just as I promised," Henry whispered back.And the fact that he actually did hit me like a ton of bricks and made me cry harder.Gradually, my loud wails turned to sniffles.Then finally, silence.I eased back slightly, wiping the tears from my face.“Fuck…” I tsked in annoyance.“That slap was supposed to get me five million dollars damages.”“So you really were thinking of suing her," Henry said, amused.I exhaled heavily.“Come on out guys, show’s over.”............Henry's POV Footsteps echoed from behind us.A videographer.A reporter.A photographer.And a few other people.A small smile curled up my lips.“I was beginning to wonder since when did you stay put and let someone slap you.”She scoffed.“Are we still getting our money, Rosie?” the photographer asked.“What money?” Rosie sneered at him.“For the shoot...” th

    Her brows furrowed in confusion.I sighed dramatically."Oh, how foolish you are, Greta."She gritted her teeth, her fingers fisted by her sides."Let's say... I planned everything to end this way.""What do you mean by that?" she bit out."History has a funny way of repeating itself, doesn't it? Like father, like son..." I drawled, tapping my chin softly."Long story short, the person your son almost raped was a paid actor.""What?""A leopard can never change its spots, you know? All I had to do was make sure your son had the opportunity to do it again, so I hired someone to lure out the rapist inside of him and he didn't disappoint."Her chest rose and fell rapidly, her eyes burning with pent up rage."How dare you?" she ground out."Come on, Greta. It'd have taken ages if I had to go through this... corrupt system the legal way.""I will make you pay, you fucking bitch, I swear you don't know me and what I'm capable of—""And you don't know me either, Greta," I cut in, stepping cl

  • Rosie's Obsession    Chapter 111 — Show Time

    (Three Years Later)I stepped out of the courtroom, my heels clanking against the marble floor and my Versace bag swinging with each movement.Then I stopped in front of the door.I adjusted my shades.My gaze ran over my suit top and skirt in approval."Show time, Rosie."Then I pushed the door.The moment I stepped outside, flashlights blinded me for only a second before reporters surged forward trying to shove their mics in my face.My security detail immediately formed a barrier, allowing me just enough space to breathe."Miss Alphonse! Miss Alphonse! Over here!"I didn't stop or bother to look. I simply kept walking with my chin held high and a satisfied smirk on my lips."Another high-profile conviction. What's your secret?"Almost...They were almost close to getting my attention."Do you think you ruined an innocent boy's career?"Innocent my ass."Many people say you're becoming the most feared lawyer in the country. How do you feel about that title?"Finally,I stopped.And

    By the time I woke up, Henry was gone, and a tiny note lay under my pillow.A sad smile tugged at my lips as I read its contents.‘I think your mother's right, Rosie. You need to figure yourself out without me hovering around you. I will try to stay updated with your life for as long as I can, and when the time is right, I will come for you.’I exhaled heavily.There was a void inside of me, one that opened the moment Henry left.I guess Mum was right after all.I brushed, took my bath, then dressed up before heading downstairs.Low voices drifted from the living room."I messed up, Richy. She definitely hates me now," Mum said, her voice soft."I'm sure she doesn't, Dee—""She does..." Mum cut in. "I just keep fucking things up—""Hey," I said, coming to a stop at the doorway.They both turned to me."Who's up for noodles?"Mum blinked.Dad stared at me in confusion."I know a cool spot," I tried again. "And I'm not angry... a bit sad, maybe empty but I'm cool.""Oh, Rosie," Mum brea

    Dad turned to me, his eyes wide in disbelief and puzzlement.I turned my gaze away from him."Rosie..." he called. "Is this true?"My lips quivered."Rosalina," he called again, this time walking up to me."I love him, Dad," I whispered.He froze.Mum scoffed loudly."Like she knows anything about that.""Calm down, Denise," Dad chastised.He touched my arm."Look at me, Rosalina," he said, gently.I shook my head."I swear, Dad. I love him.""I believe you, princess. Just look at me, okay?"Slowly, I turned my teary gaze to his."Oh, baby. Come here," he cooed and I rushed into his open arms as sobs cracked past my lips.He rubbed my back softly."It's alright, it's alright... we'll settle this, okay?"I buried my face into his chest as I took in deep breaths to quell my sobs.After a while, I calmed down.Dad patted me one last time, before pulling back.He turned to Henry."How long has this been going on for?"Henry shifted slightly."I hate to admit that I've always liked your da

  • Rosie's Obsession    Chapter 108 — My Daughter

    For a moment, I stared at the scene in shock.Then—My body kicked into action.I placed myself between Mum and Henry."What the fuck, Mum?" I screamed.Her gaze landed on mine, filled with disgust."Get out of my presence, Rosie. Before I end up doing something that'll make this family end up on the news."My hard gaze fixed on her.Inside I was petrified, but on the outside—"Like hell I will," I gritted. "Not until you tell me what the fuck is going on."Henry's hand rested on my arm."It's alright, Rosie—""Get your filthy hands off my daughter," Mum screeched, ripping me away from Henry.The force had me stumbling back, and my back landed against the table as she positioned herself in front of me.I hissed softly, then tried to stand up.My gaze landed on something instead.A very familiar jacket and bra.Shit.My eyes widened.Andrew's jacket from the night of Wade's game and my bra.I'd totally forgotten that I had gone to bed half naked.Henry must have taken them but somehow—

    I groaned, rolling over onto my side, the harsh glare of sunlight hit me immediately.I squinted, turning away sharply.“Jesus Christ…”Why the hell was my curtain drawn?Of course… My mother is home.I stared at the bedside clock. It read— 10:50I got up from bed, deciding to brush my teeth and ta

    Henry plastered a fake smile on his face“Likewise,” he replied, arm outstretched.Jacob smiled tightly, but took his hand.“Hi, Mr Gareth.” Lena said, waving slightly.“Good to see you, Lena.” Maggie came over, taking Henry's hand in hers. “I'm so sorry about the other day.”Henry smiled politely

    I swallowed forcefully, chest rising and falling fast.So… close.So close that I could feel his breath on my cheeks and smell his expensive cologne.My tongue ran over my lower lip and his gaze dropped there, then snapped back to my eyes quickly.His grip around my wrist tightened, eyes searching

    “He's your mum's fiancé, Rosie.” I chanted as I sorted through my wardrobe for a study outfit.After a few minutes of endless searching— I groaned, slamming the wardrobe close.Since when did I care about my looks?Who cares…It's my bloody house, I should wear what I'm comfortable in.I bit my lip
