Chapter 62 - Trio
William, Rosaline, and Tessa discussed their plan to help Uncle Kevin.They did it swiftly enough and decided to execute it the next day.William asked Albert to invest in it.Having been there a couple of times with Rosaline, William could practically see its value after being renovated and promoted. Moreover, with Tipsy Topsy backing it up, marketing would be incredible.With more business, Kevin would get compelled to hire more people. Thus, he would be occupied, which was Rosaline’s primary goal.They worked on the basic layout for renovation and designs until late evening before William left for his home.Everything was in place, and the work would start the next day.While Tessa, having worked together, was well aware of William’s efficiency, Rosaline was shocked.

When William arrived home, he was not surprised to see Ria and Tristen.Tristen had come home the day before, and William wa

Chapter 63 - Mother
William was not very close to his mother as they both had very different personalities.While William was straightforward, rational, and a good judge of character, his mother, Anabella Brown, was very emotional, tended to get swayed with sweet talks, and was rather long-winded and irrational. They had a decent relationship, partly because they lived separately except for a couple of weeks a year when he came home, and partially because she never interfered in his life. Contrary to his mother, his equations were much better with his father, Anthony Brown, as his father was the one who instilled sound principles and high moral standards in him from a young age.Being an army commander, Anthony was upright and honest. He was very slick and was a good judge of character.Moreover, Anabella always lamented about William’s aloof personality and had tried to “fix” him via preaching or emotional blackmail.Anthony, on the other hand, did not care. His stance was - as long as his son was a g

Chapter 64 - Father
William could only sigh helplessly at the closed door of his mother’s room.He would have followed her if there was any chance of her listening to him, but he knew there wasn’t. So, he went back to his room.He then texted his father, “Dad, are you awake?”William was scared as he waited for his father to text back.Having lived with him, he knew how busy he could get. But he could not help feeling anxious about his supposed engagement. His mother did not affect his decisions or his mood a lot.But he respected his father a great deal. He could not disregard his opinions, especially since he had never asked him for anything. His father replied after ten odd minutes. “What is it, Liam? I just wrapped up a meeting.”“Are you busy? I wanted to ask something. It can wait till tomorrow if you are busy.”“That’s fine. I’m waiting for my dinner now. It’ll take another fifteen minutes.”William then called his father directly.“Dad!”“What happened, Liam? You are way past your bedtime.”“Da

Chapter 65 - Texting
Rosaline was chatting with Tessa when she received Maddox’s call.“Hey, bro. What’s up? Did my sister-in-law’s phone run out of battery?” She teased immediately.Maddox was not in the mood to joke with her. He got straight to the point.“Lina, what have you been doing recently?”“Nothing important. Why, bro, is there anything I can do for you?”“I ran into Tris the other day. And someone called Evelyn. They said that you were seeing someone.”“Yeah. Kind of, I mean. I’m not sure where it’ll go yet.”“Damn it! I thought you were seeing Liam.”“Why would you think I was seeing Liam? Besides, I told Mom and Dad that I would not get engaged to him. You know we have never met before. I thought that was over already.”“Well, uncle and aunt did not inform anyone that you have refused. Liam is pursuing someone these days. Your sis-in-law and I thought you two were seeing each other. Ah! What a mess!”“Oh! Well!” “Can you text me Liam’s number? I'll clear things up with him directly.”“Alright

Chapter 66 - Home
The next day, Rosaline woke up earlier and texted William “Alex” that she had some private matters to attend to and won’t be available today.He immediately replied that he was busy as well and that he would call her later. She then quickly made her way to her parent’s home for breakfast.When they were all seated at the breakfast table, her mother started her interrogation before she could even say one word. “Where have you been these days?” Rosaline’s mother, Elisa, asked. “At Tessa’s. I am helping her and her colleague with renovations on their place, so I have been busy.”“Did you have to stay there to work for them? Can’t you commute from home?”“It’s convenient that day. Besides, Tessa is moving to S city, so we’ll be in different cities in the future.”“You are also going to a different city from us, so spending time with your wayward friends is more important than staying put at home. That way, at least you could pick up some household chores and learn how to be a good wife

Chapter 67 - Memories
Rosaline locked herself in her room and surveyed it carefully.She slowly swept her eyes on each item in the room.Fragments of her childhood played in her mind like a movie on a reel._______‘Mom, Dad! I got the first prize on an interstate quiz for primary level.’‘For next time, try winning fair and square rather than begging Tina to drop out of it. It’s okay to fail, but you can’t succeed by stepping over your sister.’‘Mom, I did not ask her to drop out. She got disqualified from the selection.’‘Don’t slander your sister. She already told us the truth. The poor girl was crying but still tried to protect you. Yet you slander her like this.’_______‘Mom, I was selected for a piano competition.’‘Well, that’s good enough considering your standards. Tina would have won it if she had not injured her fingers while playing with you.’‘Mom, she has not injured her fingers. It was painted and not bruised.’‘You are getting more and more out of hand. Why do you always have to hurt your

Chapter 68 - Whipped
Choking on her childhood filled with grievances and longing for her parent’s trust, Rosaline took deep breaths to calm herself.She was a grown-up, not a child longing to be loved and accepted.She had responsibilities and things and people to care for as an adult. She did not have time to wallow in self-pity.She then quickly texted Liam -“It went as bad as it could. Not only did my parents not listen, but they also told me not to slander you and not to mess around. Hope there’s some positive news from your end.”Unbeknownst to her, things were just as bad at William’s end.His mother had an emotional outburst, started crying, and said she would rather die than face her-in-laws in disgrace of having such an unfilial son. She said that a girl selected by his Uncle was a million times better and more cultured than the tramp he was screwing.William could only look at his mother, and remind himself that she gave birth to him, so he should respect her no matter what. But it was getting

Chapter 69 - Shopping
Ria was having a blast teasing William.“Brother, how about you pick something you think your girlfriend might like? Since Lina and she are the same age and have common interests, it might suit Lina well.”“I don’t want to pick things for others. ““Brother, please help! I’m the bride.”“Fine.”“Hehehe. Brother, the ‘I’m the bride’ thing always works.”“Of course! You will be an old maid after marriage.”“Brother!” Ria stomped her feet in annoyance.“Alright! Alright! Let’s go.”“Fine. Since you are helping me.”“Does the gift have to be jewelry?”“Yeah. I mean, I have only seen people give jewelry only as in-laws’ gifts.”“Alright, how about this?”William pointed at a pair of platinum diamond studs with two diamonds knotted between platinum bands. The asymmetrical design looked quite simple but gorgeous. William did not know about Lina, but he could picture his ‘Lexi’ wearing something like that. Since it was small, she could wear it casually.“Looks good, brother. I’m sure Lina w

Chapter 70 - Run away after stealing
William checked Rosaline out head to toe. The more he looked at her, the more he felt her emotions were all over the place. Usually, she was shy, but when she had held his gaze earlier, it was like she was trying to search for something. Like she was trying to access him.When she had held his arms before breaking free, she seemed to seek comfort and, at the same time, deny it. He wondered what she had gone through so early in the morning. When he left her yesterday, she was doing fine. When he talked to her in the morning, she seemed fine.Then he remembered she had gone home that morning.She was staying at Tessa’s the whole month. She barely went home. Mostly she just went home to pick something up.‘What’s wrong with her family? How can they make her so sad in such a short time?’William got lost in thought.When Rosaline called him, she realized he seemed to be elsewhere. He was looking at her, but his mind had drifted far away.Suddenly she had an impulse to tease him.So, sh
