Nolan's POV.“Rosalynn.” I had just stepped into the house and immediately searched for the figure of my little doll.“Mr. Nolan, why are you back so early? It's raining like this, weren't you in any danger on the way?" Anne held the vest for me and was surprised at my presence before the end of work hours.I loosened my tie and rolled up my shirt sleeves, glancing at Anne before casually saying, "Finished work, so I came home early. Where is she?"“Rosa said she was a bit tired so she went to her room to sleep.”“How was her reaction today?” I unbuttoned my shirt one more button to make it more comfortable, then put my hands in my pockets and went up to the second floor.My pace of walking up the stairs was very slow so that I could continue to listen to what Anne reported. She sighed, “When she woke up in the morning, she indeed wanted to take her suitcase and leave like you predicted. But after that, she just sat blankly watching TV in the living room for several hours. No matter h

Rosalynn’s POV."Argh... Where am I?"I rubbed my forehead hard and slowly opened my eyes. Even a slight movement intensified the pain in my head, causing me to grimace before fully grasping the situation around me.Turning to my side, my gaze met Nolan's as he drove, startling me and causing me to involuntarily shout, "Ah! Why are you here?"Clearly, when I fled from that mansion, I coincidentally encountered Hades Olivier and left with him. However, in a moment of confusion, I couldn't find anywhere to go, and the city I had been familiar with for years suddenly felt as distant and unfamiliar as ever. I had no one to rely on in Las Vegas. Katherine wasn't there, and I dared not trouble Liam for fear that Nolan would cause him trouble later.So, I reluctantly agreed to Hades's offer to stay at his place for a while. But unexpectedly, Nolan found me so soon and took me away while I was unconscious."So, where do you think I should stay? And where do you plan to stay? Your actions, goi

Rosalynn's POV.As soon as I went out and closed the door, I heard the sound of high heels hitting the marble floor and they became more and more distinct. I unconsciously crumpled Nolan's bloody vest and my heart beat faster. I didn't know what expression to wear when facing Christine, and I even had the thought of running away like a coward.I knew nothing about Christine other than that she was the mayor's eldest daughter and the sister of Kristen, who hated me bitterly. Now I understood Kristen's actions, for I bore a resemblance to her sister. She probably assumed that everything I received from Nolan was thanks to Christine and that I was competing for a warmth that didn't belong to me.Until a voice came from behind and made me shiver, "Hello?"Christine in my first impression was a very gentle and pure woman. The pure white dress on her body turned her into an innocent angel, with her white skin and slender hands reaching out to me. I glanced at her handshake and silently marv

Rosalynn’s POV.After assessing the safety situation, Liam led us out through another door in the same room. He was familiar with every nook and cranny, swiftly guiding us to the parking lot behind the bar.As I buckled my seatbelt inside the car, I finally spoke up, "That was too dangerous. Thank you."As Liam drove past the bar's main entrance, I suddenly remembered Alex and sat up in alarm, "We still have someone trapped inside. It's Alex. Is there any way to help him?""Don't worry, I've called the cops. They'll be here soon. He'll be fine," Liam reassured, turning to me with a gentle smile.I nodded lightly and sighed in relief, resting my hand on my chest. Glancing at Martin through the rearview mirror, I caught his scrutinizing gaze on Liam. He held onto my purse tightly and whispered, "Who is he? Why was he inside the bar?""Yeah, I'm curious too. Didn't Aiden rent out this bar for tonight?""This bar belongs to me and a friend. After finishing my piano class, I needed to stop

Rosalynn’s POV."Don't go, please."Despite my thousand attempts to persuade Nolan and worry for his wound, his coat slipped from my grasp, and I stood still watching him vanish from this room.The rumble of the engine echoed up to the second floor of the mansion, and I chuckled mockingly as tears fell involuntarily. I knew I was being selfish, but his disregard for himself, rushing to her side immediately, pained me. It was as if he was reminding me that Christine always came first.Descending to the living room and facing Anne, I embraced her, gently patting her back to reassure her, "It's okay, he'll be fine. I called Alex and requested his car's location. Alex will come to help him soon.""Are you okay, Rosa?" Anne took my hand, concerned."Of course, I'm fine." I tilted my head, smiling calmly and shrugged, then led her to my piano, "I've been composing a new song lately, would you like to hear it?""Absolutely. I love listening to your piano. Although I don't understand music, I
