Anne rose: "To burn with the fire of unrequited love and keep hoping for it to be returned one day is the greatest punishment one can bring on oneself." My life took an unexpected twist when I married the enigmatic billionaire, Nicholas Hart. Despite sacrificing my dreams and family for Nicholas, our marriage remains loveless. A glimmer of hope emerged when I discovered that I was pregnant after four years of marriage but a shocking revelation in his office shatters all of my illusion of happiness – his first love has returned after five years, reigniting old flames. Maybe, I was never enough or I was just not her. After four years of endless devotion and love, I realized my husband's heart belongs to another woman, instigating me to make a heartbreaking decision of divorcing him. Nicholas Hart has burned me with the fire of his betrayal and I was nothing but ashes. I made the most reckless decision to leave him– I faked my death to leave the man who refused to leave me even after shattering my heart into tiny unfixable pieces. ….. Nicholas Hart: She was the best thing that ever happened to me and I realized when it was too late. In the end, she became all of my 'I wish' and 'what ifs'. …. Five years later, Anne Rose Swift is living her life as Roseanne De Luca with her son in a foreign country, away from Nicholas' world. An incident causes their worlds to collide again. Will Anne Rose give another chance to her husband? Or will she move on with her new life? Are they still bound by the thread of fate? Or would they cause immeasurable pain to each other's heart again?
View MoreRoseanne said to Nicholas as soon as she stood next to him, “She is so weird.”“Who?” Nicholas asked in curiosity. Roseanne answered, “Mrs Taylor. She is a very weird creature.”Nicholas smiled as Mrs Taylor’s reputation in the circle was quite something. He said, “You only met her once and you are saying it.”“Don't you feel so?” Roseanne asked him. “Umm, I wouldn't say so,” Nicholas said to her. His perception of that woman might be the most different and a little in-depth of all the people here. Nicholas expressed what he has analyzed throughout the years of meeting Mrs Taylor, “Mrs Taylor is an eccentric woman, Rose. She plays bitchy.” He paused for a moment and then added, “Actually, it's not a play but a part of her personality. I wouldn't call her kind because she is far from it. However, if you limit her by saying that she is a bitch or a weird woman, remember that she succeeded in making you underestimate her. She is far from being that. Mrs Taylor will chew you and spit y
On the other hand, Roseanne was talking to Nicholas' colleagues and he was introducing his friends. She was surprised to see that in the last five years, Nicholas had made good friends. Most of these people were people who either worked with him or he had business relations with them. However, it was quite fascinating for her to see Nicholas, who usually avoids people making friends. It seemed that he finally learned the value of having good people around him. Mrs Taylor suddenly stood next to her and said, “Miss Deluca, there is a young man outside asking for your presence.” “For me?” Roseanne asked, surprised. Mrs Taylor nodded innocently. She was acting like she was not trying to sow discord between the couple. She just wanted to see if Nicholas would get jealous if she used such terminology but she was disappointed by his reaction. Roseanne looked at Nicholas and exchanged a look. “I will come with you,” He said to her. They could not leave Roseanne alone as the killer might
Beatrice said as she was noticing everything regarding Roseanne, “I get it why Nicholas is crazy for this woman.”She had heard her sister crying about this new woman but she didn't get the opportunity to meet who this new woman was. But after studying Roseanne for a few hours, she came to the conclusion that the former resembled Nicholas' first wife a lot. Sabrina had told her many times how Nicholas was hung up on the ghost of his ex-wife and now that he found someone who looked like her, he was holding onto her. Sabrina asked in curiosity, “Why?”Beatrice's answer surprised Sabrina, “She looks like his dead wife.”“What?” Sabrina could not believe it. She had seen Anne's pictures and those two didn't resemble each other that much. Beatrice told her sister, “She looks like Anne. I have seen Anne many times in the events. She resembles this woman a lot. Nicholas is trying to find his dead wife in this woman.”She further added, “If you compare the picture of two women, you may not
When they came to the table and sat with each other again, many people stopped by to greet them. The highlight of the event was when Mr Taylor and his wife came to greet the Hart couple. Nikolai and Vance tried to act normal for the event but the cracks in their relationship were clearly visible. Everyone present there could estimate that something had happened between the two of them during the party at Hart house. Ellora and Mrs Taylor talked with each other to maintain a polite facade. Where the men could not deal, the women would bring their soft politics to the table. Roseanne noticed many things this time that she never could in the past. She noticed how fake her mother-in-law was and how she acted very dubious with everyone in the gala. It was not the case with her mother-in-law only. Everyone was also the same. They had different characters that they brought to parties. Ellora was in a different mood when she arrived but now she was playing the role of a host who was so hap
Upon entering the room, Roseanne discovered a stunning black dress laid out on the bed alongside a note. She suspected Nicholas had left it there, as he had instructed her to prepare for the gala. Although she was not sure if she would be able to survive the gala, she knew that she had to go. This time, she had no choice. The dress exudes such elegance that it seems certain to steal the spotlight. Roseanne had a strong desire to make a dazzling entrance at the venue to captivate the attention of everyone present there, especially the killer who was there to hunt her. And she also wanted Nicholas to not be able to tear her eyes away from her. It was a daring task she had undertaken but she remained hopeful that she could execute it successfully.In previous times, Roseanne would attend events looked after by Ellora who kept a watchful eye on her every move even in Nicholas's presence. Initially, Roseanne assumed Ellora's attention arose from a fear of embarrassment believing that she
Sabrina looked at her stepmother and said, “But I love him.”Sabrina and her stepmother had a very unusual relationship. It didn't seem that she was closer to her stepmother but if the latter would tell her something, she would listen and try to act on it. Whereas Beatrice could not tolerate her stepmother and blamed her for her mother's death. It could be said that Sabrina and her stepmother had a very polite relationship while Beatrice and her stepmother had a very typical relationship. Mrs Taylor said to Sabrina after pondering for a moment, “Sometimes, those closest to us can cause us the greatest pain. If someone you deeply care about or love is causing you constant tears, is the relationship truly worthwhile? Wouldn't it be preferable to be with someone whom you may love slightly less, but he doesn't cause you sorrow and consistently strives to bring you happiness?”Mr Taylor stared at his wife for a moment and then sighed. His daughter would not be able to understand what his
“Ah!!” Sabrina's pained cry echoed through the room as the vase shattered against the table. Ever since she had witnessed Nicholas and Roseanne together, she struggled to prevent the burst of emotions fuming within her. Normally, she was calm and reasonable but this situation pushed her to the brink of insanity. For half a decade, Sabrina had silently held up a torch of hope and love for Nicholas. She was always desiring that he would one day return her affections. Yet, he remained loyal in his devotion to his late wife, gently refuting Sabrina's advances. Nevertheless, She was deeply hurt by the sudden emergence of Nicholas's feelings for Roseanne, along with the news of their children together, which felt like a sharp blow to her heart. She struggled to understand how Nicholas could transition so quickly, especially considering his previous assurances of him being unable to love anyone but his late wife. He lied to her. He made a fool out of her. However, she caused this to hersel
Roseanne recounted the events to him, “Each time Leon would finish one, he would take him for a live racing show. He was the first person to notice that Leon was an extraordinary genius but he insisted that we let him grow like a normal child in school. Of course, Leon gets bored with this but I think Nathaniel is right.”Nicholas agreed, “Being a genius is burdensome. Let Leon live like a normal child.”Roseanne suddenly said, “I wish I was a genius.”Nicholas said, “You were so smart in your studies.”Roseanne quickly retorted, “That's because I used to do a lot of hard work. Moreover, I was not beautiful while growing up. I had to make up with my mind since I had no beauty.”Yes, she was good at studies. That's because she would give ten hours a day to her studies. However, for Leon, it's not the case. He would just glance at a thing and it would be etched in his mind forever. Nicholas didn't agree with what she said, “That's ridiculous.”This woman had brain enough to scheme agai
On the dinner tableNikolai’s face darkened as he was sitting at the breakfast table. He looked pissed and angry. He had gotten the report and the result said the same thing that Nicholas had told him. Of course, he did not like the fact that Nicholas was right. Looking at his son's perfect family on the table was boiling his blood. Nicholas and his family were having food on the table along with him and Ellora. The children were sweetly treating their parents with smiles and happiness while Nikolai’s children wouldn't even bother to talk to him in a polite way, much less than a loving manner. Ellora was spoiling her grandchildren and it spoiled his mood to no end. “Leon, sweetheart, I asked the kitchen to make all your favourite dishes. You must eat a lot.”To be honest, she doesn't care about family politics at all now. Last night, Nicholas came to him and explained the situation. She decided to stay out of politics and do what fits best for her. She decided to live her life peace
