I don’t trust you
“… I’m sorry . I know I have been stupid in the past. I trespassed. I bruised your ego and I said demeaning words to you, but I sincerely apologise to you and I seek nothing but your forgiveness.
Even if you don’t want to forgive me, for your daughter’s sake, forgive me. Rosalinda is broken and unhappy. For the rest of yesterday, she’s sobbing secretly.
Do you want your daughter to be unhappy? No mother or brother ever wishes so for their daughter and sister. I humbly request you to forgive me for her sake.
Rosalinda loves me a lot. She hadn’t stopped loving me for once. I fell in love with her after she miscarried my baby. I swear that I regretted my actions.
I tried to apologise, but you both didn’t give me a chance. I am a different person now. I love your daughter more than anything else in this world. Please give us your blessings, dear mother inlaw…” Chase pleaded.
Pricillia Black was speechless. She doesn’t know if she’s to be angry or just walk away. But a stronger desire was in her to pull Chase close to herself and give him blessings.
Mike didn’t say anything. He glared at Chase Hudson. Did he really love his sister like he claims? Did he really care about her or is he pretending with sweet tongued utterances?
“Are you here to receive my mother’s blessings or because you love my sister?” Mike asked, fixing his gaze on Chase.
Chase is way older than him. If it weren’t because of his involvement with his sister, he cannot raise his head to glare at the billionaire dude, Chase Hudson.
“Both. I want both” Chase stuttered before continuing “You may not believe me, but Rosalinda is the first woman that I’ve ever loved. I have never fallen in love before until I met her.
I used to be promiscuous, yes. But that’s in the past now. All that matters to me right now is living with Rosalinda for the rest of my life in love and cherished emotions.
And if you don’t believe me, I’m sorry there’s no better way I can express how sorry I am for hurting every member of your family. But Please talk to her, she’s in emotional turmoil because she missed you both.
Even if you don’t want to see her, talk to her. Tell her you love her and she would forever be your daughter and sister. She’s always welcome to your house and no matter what happens, you would never leave her in the storm.
Rosalinda deserves to be happy. She wanted to reject me but her heart yearns for me alone. And I want her to be happy, please help me by at least talking to her, please Mrs Black and you, Mike…” Chase declared and bowed slightly.
They are not in any way different from him in the act they displayed by leaving her out in the storm. What if something unfortunate happens to her?
Why should she always get hurt by those she loves? First it was him and now, it’s her family. His wife deserves to be happy.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Chase gently turned around and was halfway through the threshold when Pricillia Black asked “Where is my daughter now?”
“We’re lodged in the hotel,” Chase responded.
Rosalinda stepped out of the bathroom. She was famished. She still hasn’t seen Chase. Where has he been? Wherever he went, shouldn’t he be back already?
Everything she needed was there. She dried her hair and tied it up into a ponytail. She soon dressed up and was applying her makeup when Chase walked in.
“Good morning honey” Chase chimed, walking over to her. Rosalinda was seated in front of the vanity mirror when he arrived.
“Good morning my love” Rosalinda replied. She turned and glanced at him properly. He wore a designer short sleeve on a pair of pants. He appeared casual but expensive.
Being dressed this way meant he went out. Where did he go? Did he go and see someone else? He couldn’t possibly have left her in the bed and gone out so early.
“Where have you been?” She asked, turning her gaze to herself through the mirror. She doesn’t want to act like a jealous woman, but honestly she can’t help being jealous at that moment.
“I went to see someone and it’s necessary for me to go,” Chase replied, bending over and hugging her from the back.
“Hmmm” she grunted.
Chase saw her facial expression a little twitched and he smiled. She’s in for a surprise that morning. He suddenly became serious and said “your lipstick looks good on you. I want to check it out” he requested.
Rosalinda stayed still, thinking he really wanted to check the quality of her lipstick when Chase turned her seat abruptly and captured her lips in his.
Chase kissed her. He kept kissing her despite Rosalinda trying to push him off. She couldn’t succeed in pushing him, so she joined in the kiss. The couple kissed for a while until Chase decided to stop.
“What a dynamic way to check my lipstick” She teased. Chase is acting naughty.
“Yeah, the perfect way to do so” Chase chimed, chuckling aloud. Next he said “Let’s go downstairs for breakfast. We have some guest joining us”
“Oh, really?” Rosalinda mumbled. She’s Chase’s wife now. There are a lot of meetings she would be attending without a prior notice. One of such is having breakfast with guests without being notified earlier.
“Do your makeup and appear in the best way you can. I will be waiting to walk you downstairs for breakfast” Chase announced.
That same morning, Senator Adrian Delmark, now Prime minister, was having breakfast with his kids and their lovers.
He had successfully been sworn into office as the Prime minister of Hilton City. He had moved into another Mansion, highly protected and secured.
It was evident that Richard was set to be married. If he heard him correctly, he would be tying the knot with his girlfriend Genesis.
Hence he invited Jace and Arianna to come along. They did, bringing Eli and Bella along. Bella’s parents are going off for a honeymoon, she will be with her cousin, Eli until they return.
“You weren’t at Chase’s wedding, Richard. What happened? And you Genesis” Arianna asked, talking amidst chewing.
“We travelled. We returned last night” Richard declared. He was not happy that he couldn’t be present for his buddy’s wedding. It came too quickly, leaving no chance to postpone their journey.
“Why didn’t I know about your journey, both of you?” Arianna asked and she immediately regretted asking. Jace glanced at her but said nothing.
Richard dropped his cutleries. He glanced at Arianna “you went on a pre-wedding honeymoon with Jace. Did you tell us you both were going to have a nice time together?
I am waiting to see your belly growing. Once you start throwing up, just tell me, I will help you book an appointment with the best gynaecologist in town” he concluded.
“I won’t be needing your help, Richard. I will be doing that for my baby and his mother. I don’t really trust you anymore” Jace snapped at him.
“You don’t talk while eating. It’s called table manners, guys” Arianna corrected. She returned to having her breakfast, trying her best to change the subject of discussion and prevent Jace’s fury from heating up again.
“What? Weren’t you the first person who started talking while eating?” Genesis asked, glaring at her friend with an amused expression.
Soon, Rosalinda stepped out of the elevator with Chase. They took the elevator straight to the cafeteria where they would simply have their breakfast.
When Rosalinda raised her head, she was shocked at the people waiting to see her…
