“Oh? You picked up already. Why so silent?” Charles drawled, a faint chuckle following his words.

The sound of it—light, amused, entirely devoid of remorse—made Rosie’s blood boil at once.

This man had already destroyed her standing with her own mother… and yet he laughed.

“What did you tell my mother?” she demanded.

“What? I merely told her my side of the story,” Charles replied smoothly.

“Your story is nothing but lies, you bastard!”

“Hm?” His tone turned almost playful. “And how, exactly, do

    But despite her expectation, Sebastian didn't say anything. His face grew darker, and obviously, he was displeased with what she did. But he didn't blast her.For a while, Sebastian seemed to be deep in thoughts, before saying, "You've made too much ginger soup for me. My hangover is not that bad. Bring another bowl and eat half of it.""Ah, b—but it's not much…" Rosie said. She was sure that she measured the ingredients correctly based on Sebastian's preference. Since she stayed with him, she gradually learned some habits of adult Sebastian, some of which were alike, but some were totally opposite to his childhood.So she had to adapt to his preference, including the amount of food that Sebastian wanted. She paid attention to his food consumption, watched how Sebastian ate, and how much food he left after having meals, then prepared meals according to his portions in order to avoid waste. So her family would have enough food to stay healthy, but not too much."I… I think you can have

    She... looks frightened... Sebastian thought. Am I really that intimidating? Why would she be afraid of me?Sebastian knew he wasn't the most patient man in the world, nor the kindest. But he had never laid a hand on her, and he never would, no matter how furious he became.When he was truly angry, he preferred taking it out on inanimate objects. He could smash furniture to pieces, even tear a house apart if pushed far enough—but he would never...I would never hurt her...The thought echoed through his mind as he stared, transfixed, into his sister-in-law's tear-filled eyes.Rosie panicked when Sebastian gave no response.She assumed he was disgusted by her tears and furious about what had happened the night before. That had to be why he wasn't speaking.Her already pale face turned even whiter as fear consumed her. A tear slipped from the corner of her eye and rolled slowly down her cheek.Her lips—still slightly swollen and chapped from their desperate kisses the previous night—tre

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 74 : Open your eyes, Sister-in-law,

    Rosie stood before the full-length mirror and stared at her reflection.The marks scattered across her pale skin were impossible to miss.She had always been thin—too thin, in her opinion. Sharp collarbones, narrow shoulders, and delicate limbs that made her feel fragile whenever she looked at herself for too long.Yet despite that, Sebastian had held her as though she were something precious.Rosie shook her head."I can’t believe he was even attracted to this body," she murmured to herself. "It looks so... unattractive."Her gaze drifted across her reflection.There were countless reminders of the previous night. Faint bruises, lingering marks, and evidence of a passion she still struggled to comprehend.Surely it had only happened because he was drunk.That explanation made the most sense.After all, she had seen Charles stumble into bed with plenty of women after a night of drinking. Men didn’t think clearly when they were intoxicated.At least, that was what Rosie told herself.U

    "Ah, t-that’s because my dressing gown slipped off while I was sleeping," Rosie explained quickly. Her eyes landed on the black satin robe still clutched in Izzie’s hands, and she finally understood how her daughter had figured out she was in Sebastian’s bedroom. "That’s why Uncle Sebastian lent Mummy one of his T-shirts.""Hmm... I don’t believe you, Mummy," Izzie said, narrowing her eyes suspiciously.Rosie forced a smile. "And why not?""Because your neck is covered in bruises!" Izzie declared, pointing accusingly at her. Her active imagination immediately sprang into action. "Did Uncle Sebastian keep pinching your neck last night?"Rosie froze.Completely froze.She had forgotten all about the marks Sebastian had left behind.With her pale complexion, even the slightest bruise stood out clearly, and those marks were hardly subtle.For a moment, Rosie desperately searched for an explanation, but her mind came up completely blank.Somehow, she had been cornered by a seven-year-old.

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 72 : But why are you wearing Uncle Sebastian’s T-shirt?

    After an exhausting night, Sebastian and Rosie were sleeping soundly. Sebastian had somehow ended up with his face buried between Rosie's breasts, letting out the occasional soft snore, while Rosie had unconsciously wrapped her arms around his head and held him closer. As awkward as it might have looked to anyone else, it was strangely comfortable for both of them, allowing them to drift into a deep, uninterrupted sleep.At least, it would have remained uninterrupted if not for the sound of her daughter shouting outside the bedroom door.Rosie's eyes flew open instantly.The events of the previous night came crashing back into her mind with terrifying clarity.Slowly lowering her gaze, she looked at Sebastian, who was still fast asleep with his face pressed against her chest, looking far too comfortable for a man who had caused her entire world to turn upside down overnight."Oh, bloody hell..." Rosie muttered under her breath.The reality of what had happened finally settled over her

    Sebastian seemed calm, but he did not change his posture and asked, "Don’t you still love him?""No, I don’t—""That’s fine. Even if you still love him, I will do whatever is necessary to destroy him and take you away from him," Sebastian said.Sebastian seized Rosie’s hands and detached them from his waist. He turned and bent down to look into her eyes, while his woman was lying on the bed, staring back at him.She was beautiful. Although all things around him became so vague, her beauty stood out clearly before his eyes. He caressed her cheek with his finger and rubbed her lips with his thumb, "Tell me, my love, why did you prevent me?"Sebastian asked.Rosie was stunned when she stared into Sebastian's eyes for a while. He showed her those passionate and loving eyes, making her feel she was the one who was loved by Sebastian.However, it gave her excitement. She blinded herself when her morality came under question due to her actions. For taking advantage of her brother-in-law’s dr

    Rosie lifted her gaze and immediately brought her eyes away upon realizing that Sebastian was staring at her. She definitely didn’t want Sebastian’s wrath to be directed at her once again, even if she was completely clueless on the issue.His eyes darkened as soon as Sebastian saw his sister-in-law

    Charles had just put on his suit and clipped his cuff when he was hearing someone knocking on the door of his bedroom.Knock. Knock."Master, Sebastian Edward Sterling is waiting in your office.""Hm."Charles opened the door to see his two maids he sent off to check looking at him with anxious eyes

    Sebastian was on his way to the office when an idea suddenly crossed his mind. He immediately called his big brother, and after a few rings, the call connected."Morning, big brother!""Huh? Ah... yeah, Sebastian. What is it?" Charles asked.He yawned several times. He had only just woken up from a
