Sebastian woke up groggily that morning. He stretched his limbs before stepping out of the bedroom.

"Good morning, Uncle Sebastian!" Izzie's cheerful voice echoed through the living room.

Sebastian lowered his gaze and saw the little girl greeting him before dashing around the room, jumping onto the sofa and rolling across the carpet as though she were starring in an action movie.

He watched her in a daze until Rosie's voice called out from the kitchen.

"Izzie, come here and eat breakfast! Don'

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 82 : Why did you stop loving me once I wasn’t pretty anymore?

    It took Rosie a good five minutes before she managed to pull herself together enough to stand. She headed into the ladies’ loos to wash her face. The last thing she wanted was for Izzie to see that she’d been crying.Staring at her reflection in the mirror, Rosie bit her lower lip, willing herself not to break down again."It’s alright, Rosie. Mum and Jessie don't believe you because you can't give them money. Maybe once I've saved enough from working for Sebastian, I can help them a bit. Then perhaps they'll see me as family again..."She knew it was a shallow thing to think. Buying someone’s trust with money wasn’t right, and she should probably cut ties altogether if she truly intended to leave London once she’d saved enough.But she’d grown up in poverty alongside her mother and sister. She understood why they valued the money Charles provided. Even if she'd come to hate the way he used it as leverage."It’s my fault as well. I honestly thought marrying Charles would help my famil

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 81 : I’ll tell Anne that you’re the woman I’ve been sleeping with!

    Jemmy and Cynthia continued eating in the Japanese restaurant.Cynthia was thoroughly enjoying herself. As a university student, she rarely had the opportunity to dine out at proper restaurants, so meals like this felt like a luxury.Still, she couldn't help noticing that Jemmy's mood had noticeably worsened after seeing the beautiful yet frail-looking woman and her daughter.Frowning, she asked, "Jemmy, is everything alright?""Hm... yeah," Jemmy replied.A moment later, he pushed back his chair and stood up."I’ll just pop to the loo.""Mhm, alright."Cynthia watched him leave.Suspicion lingered in her mind.'Should I follow him?'The thought crossed her mind immediately.She knew Jemmy had a wife.He had repeatedly promised that he would divorce her eventually and be with Cynthia once he had enough money.Because of that, Cynthia couldn't help worrying whenever another attractive woman appeared nearby.'What if he’s interested in her?'However, recalling the expression on his face

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 80 : No, Mommy isn’t fine!

    Rosie intended to let Izzie meet up with the Sterlings, especially Regina, as soon as she finalised the divorce proceedings.'But it may take forever, since that bastard won't sign the papers anytime soon...'Rosie sighed.She sat quietly for a while, watching her daughter enjoy her meal. Meanwhile, she had barely managed a single spoonful herself. Her gaze drifted from Izzie's cheerful face to the restaurant around them.She needed to make sure nothing spoiled their outing.Realistically, she doubted Charles would ever spend his day wandering around a shopping centre the way she and Izzie did.Charles had been raised as the heir to an old-money family with generations of wealth behind it. He didn't frequent ordinary shopping centres like Rosie.At first, he had been furious whenever she took Izzie there. According to him, she was exposing their daughter to people beneath her social standing. He had also worried incessantly about the possibility of a kidnapping.Eventually, however, h

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 79 : Mummy, don’t you think it is too hot today to wear a scarf?

    Sebastian climbed into his car and started the engine.Yet instead of driving off immediately, he sat there staring blankly at the rows of parked vehicles ahead of him.His mind was still stuck on two things that had happened before he left the penthouse.The first was the utterly ridiculous thing he'd said to Rosie."Go to bed first. You'll catch a cold waiting for me."Sebastian groaned and rubbed a hand over his face."Why the hell would I say something like that?" he muttered. "If she wants to stay up waiting for me like an idiot, that's hardly my problem."Even as he said it, he knew he was lying to himself.The truth was that he liked it.He liked knowing Rosie cared enough to wait for him.He liked the attention.The thought of someone worrying about him when he was away gave him a strange feeling he wasn't accustomed to.But that wasn't even the most embarrassing thing he'd done today.Not by a long shot.Sebastian let out a long sigh and slipped a hand into his suit pocket.A

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 78 : The entire room still smells like last night.

    For a moment, I thought Charles might have been abusing her or something...The thought surfaced unexpectedly.It was only speculation, but after everything Izzie had said, Sebastian couldn't help wondering whether his brother had done more than simply neglect Rosie.Yet the more he thought about it, the more their marriage reminded him of his parents'.His father had spent years chasing one woman after another without a shred of shame.And his mother?She had simply looked the other way.In return, she had access to endless money and an extravagant lifestyle.Whenever his father's affairs became too difficult to ignore, she'd compensate by buying expensive things she didn't need and drinking herself into oblivion.Rosie had entered that household as Charles's girlfriend and, before long, had become Sebastian's caregiver.Sebastian had always despised that sort of arrangement.In his view, if you committed yourself to one person, you stayed loyal.Simple as that.But Charles had follo

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 77 : She hardly eats anything, Uncle.

    Sebastian knew perfectly well that his sister-in-law was trying her hardest not to laugh, much to his irritation.Clicking his tongue, he chose to ignore both her and his troublesome niece. Picking up the ladle, he poured a little more ginger soup into Rosie's bowl before saying,"You've got ginger soup and pumpkin soup in front of you. Eat it—no, eat both."The faint smile on Rosie's lips disappeared instantly.She stared at the two bowls sitting before her.For most people, they were merely starters.For Rosie, however, they amounted to an entire day's worth of food.Her face gradually lost colour as she looked down at them. Then she glanced up at Sebastian and Izzie, who were both watching her expectantly, waiting for her to take the first spoonful.The attention alone made her unbearably nervous.Her palms began to sweat."I-I'll eat later," Rosie said softly, trying to avoid the issue.She could manage the soup.But even half a bowl would make her feel painfully full, and her anx

    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.

  • 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 hers

    Desiree wasted no time after receiving the call from her boss. The moment she heard the state he was in, she grabbed her keys and headed straight out the door, unable to suppress a growing sense of excitement. For months, she had watched the complicated relationship between Sebastian and Rosie unfo

  • Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You   Chapter 64 : I am sorry, girl…

    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
