Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 283 : Where had she gone wrong?
Regina pressed the doorbell outside Shania’s flat, then waited with her handbag clutched tightly in one hand.She had been coming here whenever she needed someone to talk to. It was a rather depressing realisation that the only person willing to listen to an old woman rambling about her trauma was a psychiatrist she paid handsomely for her time.To be perfectly honest, Regina hated having to rely on Shania.She had never liked admitting that she needed help, much less confessing her deepest fears and ugliest memories to another person. Yet, despite attending therapy sessions twice a week for nearly a year, she felt as though her depression and trauma were growing worse with every passing day.Sometimes, she felt as though she were floating through life without direction, merely existing rather than truly living.The only thing she seemed capable of doing with any enthusiasm was spending her late husband’s money.It was a petty form of revenge, she knew, but it was the only satisfactio
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 282 : I'm only following what my heart tells me to do.
They spent the rest of the night wrapped in each other’s arms, exchanging lingering kisses and stealing warmth from one another beneath the duvet.They didn't have sex, although Sebastian had been more than willing. The trouble was that he knew himself well enough to realise that, if they took things any further, his restraint might crumble. His desire for Rosie was intense, and he feared that once he surrendered to it, he might become too rough, too carried away by the feelings he had spent so long suppressing.Tonight, he wanted something simpler.He wanted to hold his woman close, feel her warmth against him and fall asleep knowing she was still there when he opened his eyes.And so, with Rosie nestled comfortably in his arms, Sebastian eventually settled on his side and spooned her from behind, one arm wrapped securely around her waist.For a man who had suffered from insomnia for years, sleep had never come easily. He had grown accustomed to relying on sleeping tablets, alcohol o
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 281 : Can you see me as a potential husband?
Sebastian finished work considerably later than he had intended. By the time he arrived at his penthouse, it was eight o’clock in the evening, and the moment he opened the front door, he was greeted by darkness.He stepped into the foyer and instinctively glanced towards the sofa where Rosie usually fell asleep whilst waiting for him to come home.It was empty.There was no Rosie curled beneath a blanket, no familiar figure waiting to greet him, and no sign that anyone had spent much time in the penthouse that day.A quiet, humourless laugh escaped him.What did you expect, you bloody idiot? he scolded himself. That she'd sit there waiting for you as though nothing had happened this morning?He had been foolish enough to hope that their brief telephone conversation at lunchtime might have eased the tension between them. Perhaps he had imagined Rosie would take his words to heart and decide that things between them weren't quite so bad after all.Apparently not.‘I suppose that call di
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 280 : Well, now I miss her,
Now that he was finally alone, Sebastian felt a measure of tension leave his shoulders. The biggest obstacle in his mind had been cleared, and he had Rosie to thank for it.If I hadn't asked her about it yesterday, I would've rejected Charles's offer outright, and he certainly wouldn't have been pleased, he thought, glancing at the contract on his desk. She's right. He might not want to ruin my life, but he wants to turn me into his obedient little pet. He wants control over everything, especially the people closest to him. So, if I want to beat him at his own game, I'll have to play by his rules.Sebastian had to admit that he had underestimated Rosie.For years, he had viewed her as little more than a housewife, someone whose world revolved around domestic responsibilities and raising her daughter. He had assumed there was no need to involve her in the affairs of the company or burden her with matters she could never understand.How wrong he had been.Rosie was far more perceptive t

The moment Charles and Maria had left the CEO’s office, Desiree released a long, relieved sigh and slumped slightly in her chair.‘That racist arsehole is something else, honestly,’ she muttered, shaking her head in disgust. ‘I’d love to rip his mouth off for speaking as though we’re still living in the nineteenth century.’‘We’ll have to wait a little longer for that,’ Sebastian replied darkly.He interlaced his fingers on the desk, rubbing his thumbs together as he considered what had just happened. His expression grew serious.‘That old bitch Maria is far more dangerous than my big brother at the moment. Unlike Charles, she has no personal connection to me, which means she can look at things objectively. She isn’t blinded by whatever history we share.’Desiree frowned, leaning forwards.‘Who is she, really? I can’t understand why she’s so fiercely loyal to Charles.’‘She isn’t fiercely loyal to Charles. She’s loyal to the Sterling family, particularly my late father, Robert.’‘What
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 278 : She’s far more dangerous than my big brother right now.
'Why do you ask, Big bro?'Charles shrugged, looking entirely at ease.'I'm curious, that's all. Besides, I want to make sure Rosie will be by my side when you eventually get married. It would be rather embarrassing to attend my own brother's wedding without my wife, wouldn't it?'Sebastian kept his expression neutral.'You don’t need to worry about that. I have no plans to marry her any time soon. She's still dealing with her own problems, so marriage is the last thing on her mind at the moment.''Oh?' Charles raised an eyebrow. 'So you've found yourself a troublesome woman as well?'He sighed dramatically, as though the mere thought of a woman having problems were an inconvenience beyond endurance.'Be careful, Sebastian. You don't want to end up with a pain in the arse. A woman is supposed to be her husband's support system, not another bloody problem for him to deal with. You need to find someone obedient, someone who knows when to keep her mouth shut and wouldn't dare question yo

Her fingers trembled as she dialled his number.He picked up almost immediately.“Yes?”“Where is my daughter?” Rosie demanded.A soft chuckle. “You mean our daughter?”Her jaw tightened. “Don’t play games with me, Charles.”“She’s fine,” he said casually. “We’re at the toy store. She’s picking wha
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 1 : “I want a divorce. Sign the papers!”
Rosie sat at the dining table, the candlelight flickering softly against untouched plates. The roasted chicken—Isabella’s favourite—had long since gone cold.She glanced at the clock.Nine o’clock.Charles Sterling was not home.He had promised. He had promised their daughter he would return before
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 3 : “Those heels look dangerous.”
Rosie scarcely realised she had begun to run until the corridor stretched before her like something endless, her heels striking sharply against the marble as though urging her forward. Tears blurred her vision, spilling freely now, unchecked and unwelcome.This family… they’re all monsters.The tho
Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You Chapter 22 : There are… revisions to be made.
Rosie reacted at once, catching hold of her daughter’s arm and gently but firmly pulling her aside.“I’m so sorry, Sebastian,” she said quickly. “P–Please don’t be upset with Izzie. She’s only a child, I—”“Tch. It’s fine,” he cut in, dismissive. “Just make me the same smoothie. And from now on, yo
