Rosalyn's pov.It turned out that I was right, he did all this to give me a reality check. He doesn't want me to fall for him. Thank god, I lied to him or I believe he won't mind divorcing me.I don't want to stay on this issue for too long. I don't want to lose my child…and to be with my baby I need the title of Mrs. Lorcan."I will never love you unless I have gone crazy. I just want to be with my child!" I made my point by looking deep into his eyes. "I won't love you and in return, you can't take away my baby, alright?"He groaned, looking very angry. Although it was the rule he had made, he still gets angry at my firm attitude of not loving him. It's as if he wanted me to go against my words and fall for him. But why does he want that?I hate how he always gives me mixed feelings. Shouldn't he feel happy that I'm doing exactly what he wanted?"So, now you're using our child as a bargaining chip?" He snarled. "You don't show but I know how much you care about the title."I laughed
Rosalyn's pov.I had always been fascinated by coffee. Its rich aroma, and the comforting warmth it provided, it just took away all your exhaustion of the day.So, that's why I decided to go to a coffee shop for my research. Being a coffee enthusiast, I visited numerous coffee shops and drank different kinds of coffee before I got pregnant. I believe that the location of a coffee shop plays an important role in its success.With my notebook in my hand and a passion for coffee, I stepped into a cozy little cafe on a street corner. The welcoming atmosphere immediately enveloped me.I wanted to prove to Lorcan that I could be useful not with my body but also in business. And I know that action spoke louder than words, so I made this plan. I was surprised when he agreed to let me work, I thought he'd scold me and tell me to just be obedient."Good afternoon! What can I get you?" Lost in my own thoughts, I was interrupted by the waiter. He offered a gentle smile.I returned the smile and r
Meera's pov.That night, after watching Lorcan walk away from me, frustration and anger coursed through my being. How dare that bastard?! How could he choose that bitch over me?She's nothing but a poor and ugly slut who's using him for his money.And that incompetent journalist, I hate him. Thank god he didn't open his mouth.But I didn't give up. Determined to get my revenge, I found Nick. I knew he hated Rose just as much as I did. Lorcan cut off his finger for her, and he still blames Rose for that. And with everything that went downfall in his life, he despises her so much.One of the things he wanted to retaliate against Rose the most was, that the woman he had been trampling on, was now with someone from the upper class, and he couldn't bear it. It was a pretty bitter pill for him to swallow to see her living her best life in a villa.So, we reached an agreement that he needs to play the role of a knight next to Rose. We prepared a calculated plan."We need to divide their emot
Rosalyn's pov.Early the next morning, as I entered the kitchen, the smell of freshly brewed coffee and sizzling bacon greeted me. My stomach growled as my mouth watered. But that immediately went dry when I found Lorcan cooking instead of Sarah."What are you doing here?" I yelled out in surprise, driving his attention toward me.He stood there, his hair tousled and his apron slightly crooked, I couldn't help but smile at his clumsy appearance."Umm..making breakfast for you," He raised a brow and I lost it. I tried hard to suppress the laugh that escaped me. "Is it that funny?""Kind of," I smiled as he glared at me but it wasn't one of his scary ones, it was a playful glare."Aunt Sarah is off today, so I just try to make something," He justified with a sigh, and I suddenly wished that time could just stop here forever. I couldn't help but feel warm and content. I wish to share more simple joys like this with him before he asks me to leave after giving birth.However, as if my fant
Lorcan's pov.I looked around as the media kept on taking our pictures. The place was abuzz with excitement. And when Meera and I took the stage, the media's attention immediately turned to us.The flashes of cameras and the bluster of journalists' questions filled the air."Mr. Valentino, can you share any updates on your latest technology products? How do they differ from the previous versions?" One of the reporters asked.Meera glanced at me, as we stood side by side, and I could see how our presence was commanding the attention.And I could see now what Rose might have worried about by seeing the different and curious looks on everyone's faces watching Meera standing by my side."I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't disclose any details about our latest technology products at this time. We have some exciting innovations in the works, but it's…confidential for now," I told them confidently."Alright, but what about the recent rumours?" Another one asked. And I could smell his next que
Lorcan's pov.I jerked in my sleep, as I slowly opened my eyes. I squinted my eyes from the glow of the sunlight coming through the window. Adjusting to the brightness, I frowned in confusion and surprise when I noticed I was naked. The headache was also killing me.Turning my head, my heart skipped a beat, I even forgot how to breathe, my eyes widened at the sight of Meera lying beside me.What the fuck is she doing here and how the hell did I get here?!A sense of panic washed over me as I struggled to remember what happened last night, and no matter how hard I tried I couldn't remember what happened. Why the hell I don't have any memories of last night?!My mind was blank, and I felt deeply uneasy. My stomach felt sick and I couldn't understand this situation. This is not right.I gently nudged Meera, she's the only one who could answer me right now!"Meera?" I whispered, my voice breaking with worry. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at me in horror. "What happened last night?
Rosalyn's pov.Next morning, as soon as I woke up, a feeling of emptiness filled my chest. My heart was in pain and I didn't feel any emotions. Everything feels so dull and I was exhausted. Exhausted from waiting the whole night.Lorcan didn't return last night. My fingers instinctively reached out for the coolness of empty sheets besides me. It was just as empty as my heart was.His absence sent a wave of sadness in my heart. I slept really restless last night. It's as if I have been used to him being in this house, I'm used to seeing him before going to bed. I know I shouldn't rely on him so much, it's not good for me but I couldn't control myself."Stop giving false hopes to yourself. He doesn't even care about you."A wave of curiosity washed over me, I wanted to know whether he came back or not while I was sleeping. However, my door was still locked and Sarah hadn't come to call us for breakfast. All these facts proved that he had not been home the whole night."Where must he be
When I went to meet Nick, I couldn't hide my indifference as I asked him. "What's the matter Nick? I know you're planning something so just drop this fake act!"I know he's acting, he can never change. Few days ago he was looking for revenge and now he's suddenly turned into a Saint. It's more than obvious.He smiled, his voice soft. "I remember how you used to look at me with such kindness. You never looked down on me like this before."I had built this wall around my heart, guarding myself against the memories of our past so they could not hurt me again. And this time also, no matter how hard he tries I could easily look through his act."My kindness towards you was a huge burden for me," I told him and his smile disappeared. "Now I only resent you."Ever since he betrayed me, the disasters in my life have been snowballing more and more, so I have no good attitude towards him. If it wasn't for him, I shouldn't have been suffering like this."Where is Anna?" I decided to ask since sh
