All Chapters of Taming the Devil: After Divorce, Tangled Up in You: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Desiree and Rosie quickly separated from each other the moment Sebastian’s cold voice echoed through the hallway.Rosie immediately straightened her posture and bowed her head politely toward the closed office door.“Good morning, Mr. Edward Sterling,” she greeted softly. “Yes, I’ll come to your office in ten minutes.”Then she tilted her head slightly and asked carefully,“Do you want me to bring anything? Or… do you want me to bring the banana milk from the fridge?”Silence.Then suddenly—“W-WHY WOULD YOU MENTION BANANA MILK?!”Sebastian’s irritated voice exploded from inside the office.“Just come in, damn it!”SLAM!The office door shut violently afterward.For a brief moment, the hallway became completely silent.Then—Rosie let out a small laugh.“It’s cute how he gets flustered whenever someone mentions banana milk.”Desiree stared at her in disbelief.“Cute

Sebastian raised a brow as he casually rubbed Rosie's hip while she was still frozen on the velvet bed.“You went quiet so suddenly,” he teased. “Was that slap really that shocking?” A mischievous grin spread across his face. “I still remember you smacking my butt once when I was a kid, sister-in-law. Guess this is payback.”He laughed carelessly. “But my payback is a hundred times worse.”Rosie’s cheeks immediately burned. Of course, she remembered. Little Sebastian had once destroyed her assignment out of jealousy because she spent an entire day studying with Charles instead of paying attention to him. Back then, she lightly smacked him like an older sister disciplining a spoiled child.But now—The roles were completely reversed. And it made her unbelievably embarrassed.Before Rosie could recover properly, Sebastian suddenly pushed her gently backward onto the velvet bed.

Rosie was sitting stiffly on the sofa outside of Sebastian's office. She was scared when she heard the sound of furniture being destroyed inside the office. She imagined Sebastian unleashing his rage as he was thinking about that woman in his heart.Rosie should be scared— of course, she was still scared whenever she heard him yelling and smashing something to appease his anger.But, she pitied him at the same time.She knew how painful it was to love someone so deeply, yet that person betrayed your trust and dragged you down to hell.'I even had a child with that monster…' Rosie thought.She always loved Izzie, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel pain in her heart whenever she saw Izzie smiling at her. Because it always reminded Rosie of the time when Charles also smiled at her. They were father and daughter, after all, so they had similar facial features.Rosie leaned back weakly against the sofa, her fingers twis

Sebastian was starving.At this point, he felt hungry enough to eat an entire elephant whole.He checked the expensive watch wrapped around his wrist and frowned deeply. Twenty minutes had already passed since Rosie left to reheat his lunch.Twenty minutes.For reheating food.His stomach growled angrily again."Fuck, what is taking her so long?" Sebastian muttered irritably.Honestly, even he knew he sounded childish right now. Demanding food like some spoiled prince was embarrassing. But hunger made him even more short-tempered than usual.And unfortunately for everyone around him, Sebastian Edward Sterling was already a naturally volatile person to begin with.Gruuukkk…His stomach grumbled once more."Unbelievable."Sebastian abruptly stood up from his chair. His expression darkened as irritation accumulated inside him. He was fully prepared to scold Rosie for taking forever with his lunch

Miranda crossed her arms tightly beneath her chest, intentionally pushing up her large breasts beneath the revealing low-neck top she wore. Her lips curled with open hostility as she stared Rosie down from head to toe, her expensive perfume almost overpowering in the grocery aisle."What are you doing here?" Miranda sneered. "Shouldn't you be somewhere begging on the street so you can feed your daughter?"Rosie sighed softly.She didn't even bother reacting anymore.Instead, she calmly stood up from her crouched position and continued checking the products on the shelf, comparing brands quietly as though Miranda wasn't even there.Over time, Rosie had grown used to ignoring this woman.Whenever Rosie argued back or got into a fight with Miranda before, Miranda would immediately report everything to Charles. And Charles would always take Miranda's side in the end.He used to call Rosie petty. Jealous. Bitter.He said Rosie only
