Love After One-night Stand with CEO

In fact, Grace's singing was not very pleasant.

However, many wanted to flatter her, so they applauded her performance.

It made her deeply satisfied as she had always enjoyed being in the spotlight since she was a child.

She walked down the stage with a smile and came to Rosa's side. "Rosa, what are you going to perform? Everyone is looking forward to it! How about dancing? You're in such a gorgeous dress. If you dance, you will amaze the crowd for sure!"

Rosa looked at Grace's provoking eyes and said with a smile, "Wouldn't it be disrespectful of me if I refuse your invitation to perform, Ms. Nelson?"

"Oh, no. Not only me, but everyone is looking forward to it. What do you think?" Grace raised her eyebrows.

"But... I don't want to perform anymore!" Rosa smiled and said cunningly, "I'm not a social butterfly. Why should I perform?"

Grace's face darkened instantly. "Didn't you agree just now?"

"Did I?" Rosa turned to look at her assistant. "Harmony, did you hear me agreeing?"

Harmony immediately shook her head, indicating that she didn't hear anything.

Everyone was stunned and stared at each other. They didn't understand why Rosa was going back on her words.

"Rosa, are you kidding me?" Grace didn't dare to make a scene because she wanted to maintain her image, but the muscles on her face couldn't help trembling.

Rosa chuckled and leaned over to whisper in her ear. Her voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear it.

"You're like a monkey. Of course, I have to fool you."

Rosa got up and still showed a harmless smile.

"Ms. Nelson might be a little confused because of the celebrations. Please forgive us!" she said with a smile.

Everyone was a little embarrassed, but they couldn't say anything.

Grace's face was twitching because of these words.

Was this still the Rosa she knew?

Harmony chuckled, "Sorry, everyone. Director Reborn is feeling a little unwell, and because of the jet lag and ten hours long flight, she couldn't stand performing today. If it's dancing, I can do it. I can dance any kind of dance."

Everyone was not stupid. They immediately echoed, "Okay! We're fine with anything."

Seeing this, Rosa looked at her assistant with satisfaction, nodding.

Then, she apologized to Geoffrey.

"It doesn't matter. We didn't think it through. Come on! Let's enjoy the food!" Geoffrey urged.

Without hesitation, Rosa went to the dining area, picked up a glass of red wine, and took a sip.

Henry walked over, picked up a glass of wine, shook it, and took a sip. Then he said calmly, "You learned to drink?"

Rosa chuckled, "I shouldn't have?"

"Rosa..." Grace walked over with a smile and said, "Mr. Lewis."

Henry didn't look happy as he narrowed his eyes in displeasure.

His gaze was so sharp that Grace panicked. She looked away and smiled awkwardly. "Rosa, I haven't seen you for five years. I have something for you. Can we speak alone?"

"Okay!" Rosa put down her wine glass and wanted to see what tricks Grace could play.

Henry frowned and did not speak, but his expression showed that he was unhappy.

Rosa ignored him and followed Grace to the garden.

Everyone was enjoying the banquet in the hall, so there was no one in the garden, except for a few waiters passing by.

"Rosa, how dare you fool me in front of everyone?" There were no outsiders, so Grace couldn't care less about her image.

There was a faint smile on Rosa's delicate face, which was in stark contrast with Grace's ferocity.

"Do you think everything will go well for you because you've become our company's agent? Let me tell you. I made you lose everything five years ago, and I could do it again now! If you get it, go back to England now!"

She had lost enough face that night.

And what spoiled her mood further was Rosa's composure.

Upon hearing this, Rosa smiled faintly and said slowly, "If you're that capable, why waste your time talking to me?"

Grace frowned. She didn't expect that Rosa would refute her words.

"Rosa, don't need to play word games with me. I might not compare to you in ways of words, but so what? Who are you, and who am I? I have all the power to make you lose your position as director!" It was a cruel world.

With money, one could achieve anything.

Grace could bride the leaders from England to make Rosa lose her job and title.

Rosa nodded and said, "Not a bad threat. Since you want to do it, go ahead."

Grace frowned. Was Rosa not afraid?

"Grace... Are you afraid? Is that why you're so eager for me to leave?" Looking at her expression, Rosa leaned forward slightly.

Grace's face fell, and she didn't say anything.

She squinted and smiled somewhat unscrupulously as she said, "Are you afraid that you will be punished? Are you afraid that Cecil will haunt you?"

NOW PLAY YOUR

FAVOURITE GAMES ON

"Rosa Lopez!" Grace roared to stop her from talking nonsense.

In the face of her exasperation, Rosa narrowed her eyes and sneered, "I always believe karma will bite back sooner or later. Grace, you owe me and Cecil, and I will make you pay for it."

At this moment, her eyes were sharp like swords, wanting to skin Grace alive.

For the first time, Grace was shocked by such a look.

"You... you don't have to scare me. You can't do anything to me with my position. Besides, I have Paige and Mrs. Lewis to back me up. What about you? Are you going to rely on your ex-husband? By the way, forgot to tell you that your ex-husband has been with different women every day. Your sons get along well with Paige. And Paige said they called her Mum!" With this, she smiled happily. "What right do you have to fight with me?"

Rosa's hand, which was holding the bag, loosened again and again.

In the end, Rosa smiled and said, "Five years ago, I abandoned them and never thought about coming back. Grace, it's useless for you to say such words. From tomorrow on, we will meet at the company, and remember, the longer I stay here, the sooner you will lose your position as the general manager!"

Grace stared at her angrily and said, "Okay. We shall see who will step down first!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and left in a huff.

Rosa relaxed, seeing that Grace had left.

No one how hard she had to control herself from wanting to stranger Grace when speaking to Grace.

But she held back because she couldn't do it just yet.

How could she let Grace die so easily?

She wanted Grace to lose her reputation, and she wanted Grace to experience the sharp pain.

But at this moment, her heart ached.

Was her son going to call her enemy Mom?

Her face was a little pale, and her eyelashes were trembling. She hugged herself as she leaned against a tree.

The next second, she opened her bag, took out a cigarette, and lit it with a lighter.

Then, she took a big drag.

The smoke surrounded her. Just as she was about to inhale one more time, the cigarette in her hand disappeared.

"Rosa, you learned how to smoke?" The wrinkles between the man's eyebrows deepened.

Rosa chuckled, "What's wrong? Is smoking a man's specialty? Are women not allowed?"

Five years ago, she lost her younger brother and two sons. And she only reunited with her daughter after a month.

In that month, days felt like years.

She was not herself every night.

She didn't dare to sleep. As soon as she was asleep, her mind was filled with Cecil and the triplets.

During that month, she smoked every night to numb herself.

Over time, whenever she was irritated, she would light a cigarette to relax.

Henry frowned and looked at the mockery in her eyes. He said lightly, "Is this how Andy takes care of you?"

Rosa bit her lip hard, and a cold smile appeared on her face. "Mr. Lewis, do you want to know what happened between me and my lover in the past five years?"

"Rosa Lopez!"

Rosa raised her delicate chin slightly and looked into his eyes, staring into the raging storm within those dark orbs.

"I am not deaf. Mr. Lewis, we are not young anymore. Don't play this kind of game anymore," she smiled and grabbed his elegant shirt with her toes. "I don't believe that you don't hate me. Five years ago, I abandoned you and our sons and ran away!"

Henry grabbed her by the waist and then moved closer to her. There was no gap between them.

"I want to tear you to pieces!" he said through gnashed teeth, and his handsome face was gloomy.

She held her breath and looked at him with a frown. "So... what is it you're going now?"

He smiled and said with an irresistible domineering voice, "I want to tie you up by myself and torture you because I hate you that much!"

Rosa frowned and felt that something was wrong.

However, he pinched her chin and kissed her deeply when she came to her senses.

Rosa was shocked and about to hit him.

However, he grabbed her arm, lifted it, and pressed it against the trunk.

He pried her lips, going in deeper and deeper. It was as if wanting to get every taste of him he missed out on during the past five years.

Rosa's brain was buzzing because of his kiss. She couldn't react at all.

But she kicked him.

He pressed her legs and leaned closer to her. Then, he grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him.

Rosa's red lips were swollen. She glared at him and said, "Henry, you are a pervert. Don't you think it's dirty to touch something that has been touched by others?"

A thin layer of mist clouded over the man's handsome face.

"Rosa Lopez!" He lowered his head and stared at her delicate face. The strength in his hands increased, and his eyes were so cold that they were scary. "Someone else... touched you?" His gloomy words shattered all her previous words.
