Chapter 181 Dirty secrets 2
Romeo sneered when Rose paused for breath.
“That bitch’s daughter is another goody-two-shoes just like her mother. Do you want me to believe that she screwed you over? Have you lost your touch, Rose? Besides, you did kill that bitch. Now you want to be a novelty as well? Was the money not enough?”
“Shut up! There was no money. Lester, that bastard, is as stingy as he is stupid. He has managed to ruin the thriving company and turned it into a small business. Yet, he is too proud to see that. The way things are going, we will be living like paupers soon. Even if you don’t care about me, think about your daughter, who will lose her lavish lifestyle if you sabotage me.”
“How dare you? How dare you threaten me with Lydia? We promised we would keep her out of our schemes. Don’t mention her in front of her. And you have no right to bring her up?”
“I have no right! I have no right! I raised her, taught her. Where were you? What were you doing when I was breaking my head to get her into a reputable college? Drinking? Whoring? Gambling?”
“And why would you have needed to break your head? You could have taught her well. You took away that bitch Liliana’s inheritance, and everything she owned. You made sure to separate her from the Smiths and ruin her marriage. Yet, she managed to become rich by herself and reconciled with the Smiths.
And see what you made of our daughter? She could not get into any good university. She doesn’t know shit. She could not even argue properly with that goody-two-shoes bitch Anne’s daughter. Is that how you educated her?”
“You know what, Romeo. You can call me whatever you want, but don’t ever say I did not raise Lydia well. I did everything I could for her. If you have so many objections to how I raised our daughter, why don’t you teach her yourself?”
“You know what? I will do that. I will teach her myself. Clearly, you failed to raise her well, and turned my daughter into a pushover.”
“What do you mean by that? You can’t go near Lydia! If Lester sees you, he will cut her off his will.”
Rose panicked at his words.
“Why? Are you scared, Rose? Lydia is my daughter. What’s wrong with me meeting my own daughter?”
Romeo taunted her. In the heat of the moment, he had forgotten that his meeting with Lydia could rouse Lester who might take Lydia off his will.
But Rose was very aware of the consequences.
“No, you can’t. You can’t see Lydia. If Lester suspects anything, it will be disastrous for all three of us.”
“Why are you so scared of that man? Did you forget how easy it was to trick him? If he was any threat, we would have never succeeded in marrying you to him and throwing his biological daughter out of her own inheritance and house. If he was any capable, our Lydia would not be enjoying what she is now.”
Rose felt her blood boil at Romeo’s frivolity.
“I am concerned because he can feed abortifacients to his own wife to kill his child. If he can steal his biological daughter’s inheritance, and throw her out just because he felt inferior to his wife, how far do you think he will go if he ever finds out that we have been tricking him this entire time. Don’t forget Lydia is not related to him! Do you want your daughter to suffer from your carelessness?”
Romeo knew the consequences, of course. He had just forgotten it in the heat of the moment.
On hearing Rose, he calmed down a bit. He took a deep breath and gulped down a lot of wine before speaking again.
“We should plan a contingency in case anything goes wrong.”
Romeo finally spoke.
“We will need to wait until Leo comes back and takes away all the property from Liliana. After that, we will get him to transfer his assets to me and Lydia, instead of transferring them to Lester. Then we can dump Lester.”
Rose had already been thinking of getting rid of Lester. The constant fights at home were getting to her and she did not want to pretend any longer.
“Alright, when is your good for nothing son coming back?”
“I don’t know. I don’t know when he will be coming back or where he is. He does not know that despite taking that bitch Anne’s name, he is my child. We will have to be very careful when dealing with him. Besides, he is Lester’s son, so unlike Lydia, he might have some affection for Lester. We can’t be rash. We have waited for so many years, a few more months is not a big deal. We can’t ruin our plans due to impatience.”
Rose was always the more composed of the two.
Romeo nodded, “Fine! But make sure to send money to me regularly. I don’t have anything on me.”
Rose wanted to snap but chose to eat her words, merely nodding her head.
Romeo liked the submissive side of her and diverted the topic.
“Now that we have sorted that, come here. My cock is ready for you.” Romeo laid down on the couch and demanded, stroking himself.
“All these years, you have become fat and lazy. Now, you don’t want to fuck and want to enjoy it lying down. What do you take me for? One of your prostitutes?”
Rose snapped, though already getting on top of him.
“You are my bitch, my Rose with thorns. Don’t forget who had plucked that cherry! Besides, let’s not pretend that you don’t like being on top,” Romeo leered with a wink.
“I would not talk so much if I were you,” Rose said as she slid him inside swiftly and moaned aloud, “You are at my mercy.” With that, she rotated her hips making Romeo curse out loud.
Then they were back at it again giving the audience outside quite a bashful experience.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
