Chapter 6 6

• Dylan arrived at his company—a mobile production company in their city—as he is known globally and has foreign partners too.
• He parked his car—a Honda Jeep—in the company parking lot and made his way into the five-story building, heading up to the third floor where his office is located.
• Settling into his office seat, Dylan resumed his his tasks for the day and meeting with some top partners and clients interested in his brand and new product models.
• Dylan finally relaxed in his executive black chair and received a phone call from Rosie Andrew. Rosie was excited to know if Jessica had signed the divorce papers.
• "Hello babe, good morning," Rosie spoke first, excitedly, into Dylan's ear over phone.
• Dylan stared at his phone screen and replied, "Good morning, sweetheart. How was your night?"
• "Not good without having you here with me," Rosie replied shamelessly in a more seductive voice. Dylan swallowed hard as he slowly loosened his necktie a bit to free up his neck.
• He apologized to Rosie, saying "I'm sorry, but you know that I cannot continue to sleep outside of my home as it might ruin my reputation if it gets out to my customers and fans online."
• Rosie was silent on the phone as she frowned, but she finally replied, "Don't you love me enough, Dylan? Why do you care more about your fans than me?"
• "No babe, don't get it all wrong. As you know, if I don't settle my marriage issue with Jessica amicably and make it known that I'm no longer married to her, some fans might become angry about it and want to ruin my business too. You know that I cannot allow that to happen, considering that Jessica played a vital role in my business and establishments," Dylan said, trying to explain his reasoning to Rosie over the phone.
• Rosie's frown deepened as she realized that she didn't truly love Dylan anymore. She only wanted his money, and she couldn't believe that Dylan would become rich again, bouncing back to being a billionaire after emerging from poverty.
• Rosie remembered that Dylan's parents had been rich before, but his father had been scammed by a foreign woman who took all of his wealth, leaving Dylan and his two siblings in poverty.
• Rosie was younger then, wanting a wild life. She was 19 years old when Dylan's parents lost their wealth and became poor overnight, which caused Dylan's education to crashing down, as Rosie couldn't cope with the fact that her boyfriend of three years had turned poor overnight and could no longer afford to buy her expensive things.
• An opportunity arose for her to travel abroad to further her education, and she wasted no time in leaving. She didn't tell Dylan about it, nor could she bring herself to his face to say that they had broken up, and that she no longer loved him.
• Rosie pretended with Dylan over the years that she still loved him, whereas she had moved abroad and was sleeping with other men. She only spoke to Dylan on the phone and refused to return to the city until now.
• It has been nine good years since Rosie left the country and Dylan. But now that Rosie was back home at her parents house, her parents were no longer wealthy because her father's company was bought and taken by Mr. Luke Albert.
• Rosie researched the billionaire named Mr. Luke Albert, who had bought her father's company to help her father clear off his debt in exchange for the company. As her father's company name was changed to LA Groups, Rosie saw that Mr. Luke Albert was an elderly man who had two sons and only one daughter.
• While researching Mr. Luke's sons online to see if she could date one of them, Rosie stumbled upon Dylan's profile page too. She saw that Dylan was married to Mr. Luke's only daughter, Jessica Albert, and that Dylan was Mr. Luke's first son-in-law, as none of Mr. Luke's sons were married. Both men were single and not the social types, as they avoided scandals or women in general.
• Rosie was shocked to enter Dylan's profile page and see that he was already married. She saw his wedding photo with his beautiful wife, and not only that, Dylan was now a billionaire too, with a multimillion-dollar company and two children.
• "How could?" Rosie asked herself in shock upon realizing that Dylan wasn't the poor guy she had thought he would end up becoming.
• She wasted no time copying Dylan's company address, thinking it best to see Dylan in his office after she was sure that he was the same man she had dated ten years ago.
• Rosie proceeded to visit Dylan at DY Group, faking her tears and crying when she entered Dylan's executive office. She accused Dylan of cheating on her, claiming that he couldn't even wait for her to return to the country before marrying another woman and forgetting all the love they had shared.
• Rosie hadn't thought that Dylan would accept her so easily. She had assumed he still loved Mr. Luke Albert's daughter much more than her or their past failed relationship, but Dylan welcomed her and told her, "It's not how you're seeing it, Rosie. I still love you, but it just happened that I met my wife, and she helped me become the man that I am today."
• "And how about me, Dylan? How about us? Our promise, the love we shared, my virginity that you took? How could you do this to me? I was hoping that once I returned to the city, we would get married. How could you move on so easily, Dylan? And forget about me?" Rosie hurled all manner of questions at Dylan, attempting to make him feel like the bad guy in their relationship, even she was the one who refused to pick up his calls.
• Even then, Dylan had asked her to lend him some money, promising he would return it to her once he used it to establish himself and make a profit. But Rosie refused, and in her mind, she even cursed Dylan as she thought, "How can I be the one sponsoring my man? Doesn't he see his mates that are taking care of their women? Stupid man."
• Rosie cried the day she visited Dylan's office, and Dylan finally accepted her back. She gave him her new home address, as she was no longer living in her parents house, and she told him that she was still single.
• Rosie has a boyfriend named Frederick Joseph, but Frederick wasn't rich. Now that Rosie has seen that Dylan still loves her, she wants to scam Dylan out of his wealth and use the money to establish Frederick Joseph instead, as Rosie hated Dylan for becoming wealthy and not remembering to marry her first, instead of Jessica, whom he had married.
• Rosie made sure to help Dylan prepare the divorce papers, as she wanted to have Dylan all to herself so that it would be easy for her to scam him, and no one would know that she was at fault when she finally broke up with Dylan again.
• "How about the divorce papers I gave you last night, Dylan? Have you given them to your wife at home to sign? I mean Jessica Albert, to sign the divorce papers and leave your house?" Rosie asked Dylan, and she heard him say, "I have given Jessica the divorce papers, but she is not feeling well this morning. So she will need some time to go through the divorce papers before she can sign them. And how come you didn't include that she would be taking a 50% share of my company revenue and taking care of our kids too? Didn't you know that I have two kids?" Dylan asked, while Rosie pretended not to know.
• She replied, "I don't know, Dy, but isn't her family billionaires? What does she need your money for again?"
• Dylan was silent at first, and after a while, he replied, "No, Rosie. Jessica cannot go empty-handed like that, as she suffered to help me build this company, and her parents won't take it lightly with me if I just divorce her without properly sharing all that we have."
• "So what do you want to do now?" Rosie asked, trying not to sound too desperate or annoyed on the phone call.
• Dylan replied, "I will prepare new divorce papers later and contact my lawyer now to get them ready, so that Jessica can sign them. Jessica doesn't want to divorce me either."
• "She has to Dylan. I'm supposed to be your wife, not her. So let her go back to her parents home," Rosie spat.
• "Hmm," Dylan hummed. "It okay. You have nothing to worry about."
• Rosie finally pretended to be calm, and she said, "Dylan, you know that I love you very much. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you all that while. Life hasn't been easy for me either living abroad, and during that period when you called me and asked for my help, things got worse for me too, as my dad's company collapsed and was bought out, and I was managing things abroad
• "It okay, Rosie. I know all that, as I saw it in the news too. Do not worry, I will come over to your house today after I close from work, so be expecting me," Dylan said, and Rosie giggled.
• "Okay, sweetheart, I will be expecting you. And what do you want me to prepare for you?" Rosie asked.
• "You can cook now?" Dylan asked in surprise.
• "Yeah, I learned how to cook abroad after things became tough, and purchasing ready-made food was expensive, as it was too small to fill me up," Rosie said.
• "Okay, anything that you have the energy to prepare, or if not, I will just order our dinners, so you don't get exhausted with cooking. I don't want you to turn lazy in bed, so that you can satisfy me in the ways I want you tonight," Dylan said, a sweet smile curving up his face as he thought about how passionately he would make love to Rosie in her house when he finally got there after closing from work.
• Rosie replied, "Okay, babe, the bill is on you, and I will be expecting you. Bye and kisses," as she blew kisses to Dylan over the phone.
• Dylan responded too, sending many kisses back to her before the call finally ended.
