Chapter 11
Rose, on the other hand, had effortlessly raised the attention from the many people in the airport, however, she was paying very little attention to the bystanders who were watching the scene. As much as she hated causing a public scene such as she was doing now. However, she just couldn't let this one pass by just like that since her patience button had already been pushed.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
'How can such a person exist in this world?!!'
All she did was just accidentally bump into him. She even went as far as to apologize to him, but he was acting way over dramatic and acted as if she was some kind of cockroach that touched him. Truly despicable!!
"Anyways, since I've already apologized to you, then there isn't a reason for me to be standing here any longer." Rose mumbled as she bent down to pick up her backpack which had slipped off her shoulder earlier when she fell to the ground.
She dusted off the dust on her bag and slung it over her shoulder not bothering to pay attention to the man staring at her like she was a total alien.
Rose turned around and was about to step away but she stopped in her tracks as her arm was suddenly grabbed by another strong, large slender hand.
"Did I say you could take your leave?" A deep, low voice sounded from behind her, sending a slight chill down her spine.
Rose turned around and a frown appeared on her face while pursing her lips together. She glared at the man then her gaze traveled down to the hand that was easily wrapping itself around her arm.
Clearly, the man was not planning to let her get away with it after yelling at him and calling him a rude man.
Derek and the other five bodyguards were just staring at their boss with bulging wide eyes!
Their Boss who is a neat-freak and was basically known for his cleanliness, ruthlessness, and aloof personality has never once touched a woman or allowed any woman to touch him -Well besides his mother is now holding the arm of a random woman!
No, to be more precise, he was holding the arm of a young girl, but a very beautiful one too. She possesses the beauty even most women older than her don't have. Even after they undergo different surgeries to perfect their face they doubt that they would be able to rival her beauty.
"Uhm........can you please let go of my hand, i'm sure you'll surely break my arm if you keep holding it like that."
The man quickly released the grip off her arm as if he had been electrified by her voice.
"Hmph." Rose snorted as she swung her head around, but not forgetting to make a run for it the moment the man let go of her hand.
Watching the retreating figure disappear, Alex didn't move at all from the position he was still standing. It wasn;t until he couldn't see the figure anymore, did he finally looked down and stared at the hand he had used earlier to grab the woman's arm. His brow creased deeply as he thought of something. "Boss, do you want me to investigate that young lady?" Derek asked from behind.
"There is no need. She had already apologized." And once again, Derek and the five bodyguards were caught by another wave of shock. Is their boss actually letting someone off! And most of all it was someone from the opposite gender!! Is this the part where the world is coming to an end?!!!!
Derek hesitated to speak when noticed something but eventually asked in the end. "Boss, what about this?" Derek asked, his finger pointing to the light pink colored wallet with a cute panda design on it lying on the ground. "I think this wallet had fallen off from the young lady's bag and she hadn't noticed it.........."
Alex Frowned again, his eyes glared dagger at the cute little purse. If only it was possible for his eyes to release a beam of dagger, it was no given statement since Rose's purse would have been shredded like minced meat. "Bring that purse with us." He ordered before walking away.
And for the third time of the day, Derek and the five bodyguards were once again caught by shock. This time they couldn't help but question the fact that their boss was perfectly okay. Does he want to bring along a strange woman's belongings? Isn't this called stealing? They should drop this purse at the airport checkpoint so that the lady can come back to reclaim her wallet if she finds out that it's missing from her.
"Boss, you have a meeting with OX Corps at 2pm, then you have a dinner meeting at Royal Hotel at 7pm. " Derek reported as he rushed behind Alex again.
Standing outside the airport, Rose was completely oblivious that her wallet had fallen down earlier. She stretched her hand forward to stop a taxi that is coming her way.
"Where to, Young Miss?" The taxi driver asked after Rose settled down in the car and fastened her seat belt.
"Take me to Dawn estate." Rose curtly replied. The taxi driver nodded his head and started the taxi.
Dawn estate is a very popular estate mainly because twenty percent of the wealthy socialites in Los Angeles occupied that estate. The Gray household was also located in Dawn estate as well.
**********
A few minutes later, the driver stopped directly in front of a cream-colored mansion. "We are here, Miss." The driver announced.
Rose pulled out some cash from her second wallet, since that is where she had stored her money and it wasn't the purse that had fallen down at the airport. She still hadn't noticed that her second wallet was missing.
The taxi driver drove off after being paid his money. Rose was the only one left alone outside after the taxi left, she stared at the enormous black gate of the Gray household with a blank expression.
"I'm finally back to the place where my mystery started. I hope you are watching me from up there mother? Just watch how your daughter would destroy and get my revenge on them." Rose mumbled to herself as she continued to stare at the household where she grew up in her previous life, the place she thought she could always come back to because she thought it was her home in past life.
However, in this life she wasn't here for peace and animosity, her presence was to bring ruin to the Gray household. She finally knew what her purpose in this life was.
"It's just the beginning of the end for the Gray family and Henry." For the first time a smile appeared on Rose face, but it wasn't a smile that one would call a smile because of the dark and sinister look on her face.
