Lahat ng Kabanata ng Replacement Bride: His Rose: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Ursa wiped her tears and looked at Rose. She sat straight and started narrating, “The goon pushed us in and made us kneel on the floor. Kingsley Aguilar sat on the couch like a king and ordered his goons to hit us first. They slapped us, kicked us. Other servants came running to help us, but they were pushed into a room, and the room was locked from outside. They could hear our pleas but could not help us.“Some of the goons kept trying to get into Vanessa’s room. They wanted her for the boss. He said that I should pay him protection money. No gang has ever tried to hurt us, but Dia Lucrii doesn’t care about anyone. He has all the politicians and the mayor, even the commissioner in his pocket. No one can go against him.”Rose’s eyes immediately widened with shock. If the commissioner was really in the mafia gang’s pocket, it would mean that no matter how honest a police officer would be, no one was going to help her. Roger had said that he would look for a police officer to help her, b

Rose walked out with her head held high. The area outside the door, she stopped to look at the ground; there were no blood stains. If Roger was hurt there and everyone left him there till the ambulance arrived, where were there no blood stains?“What?” asked Seth.“Can we go to the hospital?” asked Rose.“To see Roger?” asked Seth. “Of course!” he didn’t even wait for Rose to reply.Rose walked with Seth. He opened the door for her. She grabbed the door and walked near the entrance, but the pride she kept in her heart suddenly broke, and her knees gave in. She was about to lose her balance when Seth grabbed her by her waist and helped her. “Rosie!”Rose let her body fall and knelt near the car door. Her hand was gripped tight over the window opening. “What is… what is happening, Seth? What has my life turned into? I lost my mother; if I don’t marry, I will lose my father, and now Roger, I might lose him. That asshole hurt him, hit him; he is in the hospital. Roger has kept me safe all

That night after Queenie’s news, Kingsley sat in his room with a scotch bottle on his table. Tears kept streaming down his face, and he kept downing peg after peg. The burn the alcohol gave him was soothing his heart. He found Rose, and within a few days, he lost her. Every hour, Jack kept sending him updates about Rose, and he stared at the photos on his phone.Rose looked so happy in Piers’s arms. He had her raised above his head. Even in simple clothes, a tiny speck of flour in her hair, she looked mesmerising. Kingsley kept scrolling through photo after photo. She was safe in every one of them. He had comforted his heart that it was the only thing he wanted for Rose, for her to be safe. He wanted nothing else, yet his heart was aching.Ha sat in silence thinking of how much more love he could give her if only she knew that he existed. If only she knew that he had been searching for her for years. If only she knew how much he loved her and she was the only woman on the planet for h

Before Fiona could reply, “Boss! She is doing a press conference,” Emerson came running inside too.“Press Conference? Who?” asked Kingsley.“Ursa!” replied Emerson.“I want her to pay. Fiona!” said Kingsley and looked at her. “Make her cry like Rose was crying. Make it hurt.”Fiona smiled like a devil and asked, “Where do you want it?”“Hmm!” Kingsley thought for a minute. “I would really like it if you pierced her heart, but that would be an easy death. Just graze her ears but make her bleed. And inform her office that it was a warning and soon Kingsley is coming to collect.”“Done! But what will you give me for that?” Fiona saw how hurt, how angry Kingsley was. She just wanted to lift his mood up, and she had a plan.“What do you want?” asked Kingsley, faintly smiling.“Can you give it to me?” mocked Fiona.“Just tell me. You know I can give you anything,” snapped Kingsley.“Fine! A date with Rose,” demanded Fiona.“What?” yelled Kingsley and urgently stood up from his chair. He st

Fiona, Emerson and Kingsley were sitting in the cabin enjoying hot coffee. Fiona kept repeating what they did with Ursa, and they all were laughing. They had started their revenge, and every bit of it was giving them pleasure. But their happiness vanished after Jack sent them an update. He stood under Seth’s window and kept snapping pictures and recording video, and the news of Rose crying and cutting up her wedding dress made everyone sad.“Any news about Piers?” roared Kingsley.“Not yet! Our people are working on it,” said Fiona.“What did Liliana find out?” asked Kingsley.“Nothing till now. She is working with our hackers to find their location,” replied Emerson.“And what about cameras inside everyone’s house?” asked Kingsley.“Oh! That has been done. Every camera in Woolridge house has been hacked, and we are getting live footage. But Rose lives with Seth. And he has no camera in his house. There is one directly opposite his house, but that only captures his front door. Jack is
