The door to the principal’s office flew open with a resounding bang.

Isabella froze on the threshold.

Her daddy was gripping her mummy by the collar, holding her so tightly that her feet barely touched the floor. His other hand was raised, his fist poised to strike.

For a moment, Izzie couldn't comprehend what she was seeing.

Her mummy's hands were red and badly bruised. There were bruises scattered across her face, and blood trickled from several small cuts. She looked utterly battered.

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 228 : Would you mind telling Daddy this uncle’s name?

    The door to the principal’s office flew open with a resounding bang.Isabella froze on the threshold.Her daddy was gripping her mummy by the collar, holding her so tightly that her feet barely touched the floor. His other hand was raised, his fist poised to strike.For a moment, Izzie couldn't comprehend what she was seeing.Her mummy's hands were red and badly bruised. There were bruises scattered across her face, and blood trickled from several small cuts. She looked utterly battered.But her daddy wasn't unscathed, either. His face was marked with bruises, and blood ran from a wound at his temple, making his already terrifying expression even more frightening.The principal's office was in absolute disarray. Chairs lay overturned, objects had been smashed, and papers littered the floor. Even the large desk had been tipped on its side.It looked as though a storm had torn through the room.And right in the middle of it stood her parents, locked in a fight.Rosie and Charles both tu

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 227 : Thank you, Mr Wallace!

    Rosie and Charles simultaneously looked down at the phone.Both of them froze.The screen had cracked so badly that there was no longer any way to make out what was displayed.The phone rang again.But with the screen shattered beyond recognition, Charles couldn't see who was calling, nor could he press anything to answer it.And he was furious.No—furious didn't begin to describe it.Charles slowly lifted his gaze towards Rosie, his expression turning murderous."You will regret this, Rosie Sterling," he snarled.He clenched his fist once more before driving it towards her face."Ah!"Rosie threw both hands up instinctively to protect herself, but the blow still connected. Her hands absorbed some of the impact, sparing her nose from the worst of it, yet pain shot through her face all the same.Her palms were already burning and trembling from the force of the blow.Charles noticed the redness spreading across them and gave a cold scoff."See what happens when you disobey me?" he said

    Charles's gaze darkened, something cold and malicious settling behind his eyes as he heard her answer. He gave a derisive scoff, barely managing to contain his fury."You're truly an idiot, Rosie. Ten years with me, and you still haven't learnt what I want. I want an obedient woman. How many times must I repeat myself?""And I will never be an obedient woman for you, Charles. Not after the way you've treated me for the past ten years," Rosie retorted.The more she argued, the more his temper frayed.He had reached his limit.Charles cracked his knuckles slowly and murmured, "Then there's nothing left for me to do. I suppose I'll have to discipline my wife the way I used to. We've done this plenty of times before. You can handle it."He took a step towards her.Rosie immediately stiffened."Don't you dare come any closer!""Why not?""B-Because I have bodyguards at the school!" she blurted out. "I can shout as loudly as I like, and they'll come and help me!"Rosie had hoped the mention

    Rosie fell silent for a long moment as they stared at one another.There was something different in her soon-to-be ex-husband's eyes—a vulnerability he had never allowed her to see before.And she would not lie to herself.It shook her.A tremor ran through her as she struggled to understand the overwhelming emotion twisting inside her chest. But one thing was unmistakable.Heartache.It was so intense that she felt as though her heart might simply give out beneath the weight of it.Tears gathered in Rosie's eyes. In that moment, she wanted only one thing: for the pain to stop.She had never wanted Charles's luxury. She had never cared about his enormous mansion, his wealth or the powerful connections that came with the Sterling name.All she had ever wanted was a simple life.A normal life with her husband and daughter."Rosie? Are you all right?" Charles asked softly.He lifted his hand and gently brushed away a tear that had slipped from the corner of her eye with his thumb.Rosie

    Rosie headed back towards the school auditorium, but as she passed the principal's office, she noticed the elderly headmistress standing outside the door, seemingly waiting for someone.Rosie tried to walk past without drawing attention to herself.The moment Mrs Andrews spotted her, however, she hurried forwards and caught Rosie by the shoulder. Her fingers tightened around her arm, forcing Rosie to stop.Oh, bloody hell. What now?Rosie glanced over her shoulder."Is something wrong, Mrs Andrews?""Mrs Sterling, I need to speak to you about something."The headmistress's voice sounded hoarse and strained, as though she was every bit as nervous as Rosie suddenly felt."About what?""Let's... discuss it inside my office, shall we?"Rosie's suspicion immediately intensified.The woman's pale face, nervous movements and refusal to explain herself were enough to put Rosie on edge.So Rosie remained where she was."We can talk here, Mrs Andrews. I don't mind."She glanced along the empty

    Sebastian had been sleeping soundly, snoring as though he hadn't a care in the world.That peaceful sleep lasted until his phone began ringing incessantly.He frowned and groaned, a dull headache pounding behind his eyes. He had spent the entire night going through documents and hadn't finally allowed himself to close his eyes until five in the morning."Urgh... this is bloody ridiculous," Sebastian muttered.He reached blindly for his phone, squinting at the screen."Desiree?"He pressed the green button."What?""Sir, do you know what time it is?""Er... seven?""It's twenty past nine."Sebastian's eyes narrowed sleepily."Rosie called me a moment ago. She wanted to know whether you were already at the office because Izzie's play is starting in ten minutes."There was a brief silence.Then—"Oh, shit!"Sebastian's eyes flew open.He practically launched himself out of bed, rushing into the bathroom to splash cold water over his face. Seconds later, he was back on the phone."Desiree

    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

    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

    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

    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
