Chapter 184: Sudden Appearance (2)

Even though Rose now felt so nervous, she endured it. She accepts Anthony Collins’ big warm hand with a smile adorning her face.

"I’m sorry I came late, Rose. But I’m so happy with both of you... Next time I’ll make up for it by taking you all to dinner as a family, including your mother-in-law...." Anthony Collins stops his gaze at his beautiful ex-wife. He couldn’t stop admiring how well-maintained his ex was now.

Though she is older than his new woman now, still that new one can’t compare to Doris. They both like the sky and earth.

Evan’s eyes darts at his father to tell him to stop talking and steals the show. He can feel there’s no sincerity in his father’s words.

The sudden appearance of Anthony Collins in the room immediately changed the room’s atmosphere to a slightly gloomy one. No more warm chatter. No smile or broad laugh is adorning the faces of people in the room. There was only tension until the supposedly intimate and relaxing lunch ended in such a short time. So fast that Rose didn’t even know what she had just eaten? She lost her appetite as Evan’s father sat across from her.

Not long after, all the family was back in the family room. Meanwhile, Oliver and the others take their leave. They have to go back to the office. So many things to do, especially the project of Rapid Realty.

Rose walked her friends to the front yard. She wanted to give them some short advice before she took a week off to enjoy her honeymoon.

"Oliver, please take care of our office! Call me if you need something important...." She stood before four handsome men opposite her. They all look so tall. Standing near them makes her look petite.

"Damn, Boss! Do you think I would dare to call you on your honeymoon? Your husband will silence me forever. Gee!!" Oliver felt a chill run down his spine at the thought of Evan Collins being angry with him. That man, not even talking, made him feel suffocated. What if he was openly mad at him? No! He wouldn’t dare to provoke Evan Collins.

"Yes, Boss! Everything’s gonna be alright! Just enjoy your wild honeymoon with Evan. Don’t worry about the company..." Danny said as he chuckled, looking at Rose’s flaming cheeks. They can’t stop teasing her.

"Rose! Have fun on your wedding night, young Mrs. Collins...." Randy said with a smile.

"Hahaha, Randy, you finally grew up, huh!? So, now you know what would happen on the wedding night?" Danny can’t help but laugh hearing Randy’s words.

Everyone laughed except for Rose. She felt even more embarrassed!

"Alright, guys! We should go now...." Randy clears his throat and tries to divert attention away from his naivety. As he walks to the car, he says, "By Rose! See ya..."

"Bye, boss! See you in a week...." James smiled at Rose.

Rose could only wave her hand when she saw the Audi A8 Silver start to move away from her sight. She stared at the vanishing car at the end of the road leading to the gate for a moment.

"You should change your dress to a more comfortable one, wife."

Rose suddenly heard Evan’s voice from behind. She turned her back and saw her husband leaning against the door, looking at her with his warm eyes. "Let me bring you to the second floor, our bedroom..." Rose felt her cheek feel warm. She nods and follows Evan into the house.

When they entered the family room, Rose was surprised to see the empty space. Only Jamie Stone and Sam were there. They look serious, watching the news on TV in silence. Too immersed till they both didn’t notice their presence.

"Hubby, where are the others?" Rose glanced at Evan, who was walking beside her towards the stairs.

"They were chatting in the study room. You want to go there?"

"No! Let me change my dress first. These high heels are killing me." After a few hours of wearing high heels, her feet felt uncomfortable, and her calves felt sore. She had never liked wearing high heels, but she wasn’t averse to wearing them either. She will only wear those pretty-but-hurt shoes if there is something essential. And now that the critical occasion is over, she wants to replace her high heels with her flat shoes. The comfortable one, her favorite.

When she reached the second floor, Rose was surprised looking at the open space area that seemed so bright. A lot of light came in from the glass walls surrounding the area. The interior and arrangement on this second floor remind her of a five-star hotel lobby she has ever seen. There’s a vast custom L cozy gray sofa with a large flat TV against a white wall. There are not too many displays on that floor, but she can see a few minimalist paintings hanging on the white walls. The impression is simple minimalism.

She can picture in her mind now that she will spend a lot of time with Evan in this place. They both have similar hobbies, like spending time at home. And this space will cover all of their needs and coziness.

Rose also could see there were several doors on the floor. And her eyes landed on the white door where her husband stood. She approached him.

"Come here, wife. This is our bedroom...." Evan pulled her into the room.

This man will not devour her now, right? Rose thought worriedly.

There are still their parents downstairs. But Rose was wrong. After the thud sound of the door closing, Evan carried her like a prince takes his princess. He placed her gently on the soft bed. Her eyes blink several times.

"Rose, I want you!"

Evan’s voice sounded soft, and it was able to make Rose’s heart beat faster. Her tongue was numb, not knowing what to say. She just stared at his eyes as her hand clenched into a fist, too nervous to look at her husband. Now, he is on top of her with his eyes radiance lustful.
