Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress Chapter 231
Despite trying different sleeping poses she would end up opening her eyes unable to sleep. She didn't know what was wrong with her but sleeping was really difficult for her“Damn it!" Rose cursed as she sat up on the bed. ‘Water……I'm thirsty.’ She thought to herself, feeling her throat dry as she looked around the room.Left with no other choice, Rose sighed as she stood up from the bed and made her way out of the room to look for water herself. Although she wasn't sure where the kitchen was in the mansion, but she was sure she would find her way there eventually. It was late already and there was no maid around that she could ask to help her.It took Rose almost half an hour before she was finally able to find the kitchen. If she wasn't really thirsty she would have returned back to her room but she was fortunate to find the kitchen.After she was done drinking water, she poured herself another glass of water to take to her room in case she was thirsty later. It would be a hassle t

Rose let out a sigh of relief as she gently rubbed her wrist. “I'm sorry about that." Nicholas apologized, gesturing to her wrist she was rubbing. Their first encounter was with him hitting her with a door and now he nearly broke her wrist again which is all red because of how pale her skin was. “Ah, it's okay." Rose replied with a shake of her head. " What are you doing here? And why are you still awake?” Nicholas finally questioned her. " I was on my way back to my room when I noticed the door opened and saw you here. I was going to wake you up but it seems like you are very much awake.” She calmly answered. “What were you looking for outside your room? It's late to be roaming around.” He inquired again. “Nothing much. I came out to get some water to drink when I was thirsty and I couldn't call any maid to help me.” She told him again. “What about you? It's quite late and cold out here.” Rose asked and she looked down at Nicholas. "I just came out here to get some breeze.

“Why don't you just call me, Rose?" She asked him, still looking at the sky. It was a pitch dark sky adorned with a lot of shining stars, even the crescent moon was glowing brighter than it usually was. Unfortunately, even if the sky was a beautiful sight at the moment, her mind momentarily drifted back to the night she fell off the yacht on her wedding anniversary day. The sky was the only thing she could see as she sank deeper into the ocean all alone, praying desperately for help. However, it seems some entity or the heavens heard her desperate cry and here she was. Rose couldn't help but shiver at her own thoughts again. “Cousin, I think I really like this family. It took me a long time and my naivety almost ruined me because I thought I had a family but they are just a bunch of people after something. I can already picture what would happen to me if they get what they want. Perhaps they would poison me, murder me and make it seem like a car accident, or better still, have me ge

Nicholas couldn’t help but take a peek at her and shaked his head. “You possess a narcissistic side to yourself as well, Rose. You easily fool people with that face and you are very proud of it.” He said. “Cousin, I have a favor to ask you.” Rose suddenly spoke, her expression becoming serious which made Nicholas look at her. “What favor do you want to ask?” He asked her. “This favor I'm going to ask has to be a secret between us for now, so are you up for it?” She questioned. The favor she was about to ask him had to do with something Sophia had told her the night she died. She clearly remembers Sophia babbling that Beatrice had something to do with her mother’s death and also William was involved with her mother’s death as well. “And why do you want to trust me if this favor is something that needs to be kept a secret?” Nicholas raised his brow at her. “Don’t get me wrong, I don’t trust people easily and just because I like you doesn't mean I trust fully, cousin. What I'm say

“Why did you want to investigate your step mother, rose?” Nicholas couldn’t help but ask her. “Just because……” Rose replied with a shrug but it only made Nicholas narrow his brow at her because he didn’t buy that response from her. Rose knew Nicholas didn’t buy her response but she chose to ignore him. After all, she has already told him that he would get his answers if he really investigated Beatrice for her. “Are you going to help me, cousin?” She asked him. “I already agreed to help you so I have no choice but to do it.” Nicholas said. Rose couldn’t help but smile when she heard him. “That’s good. Thank you for helping me and I might end up giving you the answers you need before you complete the investigation. But that is if I see that you are trustworthy enough.” she told him, making Nicholas raise his brow at her. “I thought you said you didn’t have the answers to my question?” He asked but Rose grinned at him. “I don’t have your answers now but I might have them in the fut

***** The next mornings, RING! RING! RING! Rose was woken up from her sleep by the sound of her cell phone ringing. She lazily stretched her arm to the bedside table where she left her phone before going to sleep the previous night after her conversation with Nicholas.Without checking the identity of the caller she just accepted the call and placed the phone on her ear. "Hello, who is this?" Rose asked in a drowsy voice. "Good morning partner, I can't believe you're still in bed sleeping by this time in the morning." A familiar feminine voice accused Rose who opened her half closed eyes.“Mrs. Theresa?" Rose called as she wasn't expecting her to be the caller. “Oh, yes. Dear Rose, it's me but it seems like you are still on the bed?" Theresa answered and asked with an amused smile on her lips."It is still early in the morning, so I think I'm the one who is supposed to be complaining about you calling at such a time, Mrs. Theresa." Rose retorted in a defensive tone. Theresa co

"Believe it or not, it's your money that keeps this business afloat. So I think you've earned more than enough rights to get involved in its management. You should really take this much more seriously." She advised Rose. "Mrs. Theresa, I want you to know that I would never spend any amount of my money on someone or something that I don't trust would yield good interest. So just handle the business anyway you deem fit to increase our profit." Rose's words were filled with so much confidence that Theresa was unable to refute her because she felt that it would be wrong if she made Rose start to doubt the trust he had put in her. "So tell me exactly why you have decided to call me today?" Rose asked, wanting to know the reason why Theresa had called her. "It's nothing serious my dear, I just wanted to discuss some new business plans that I recently came up with to you. So, I was curious to know when you would be stopping by because I also need your approval." Theresa informed her tone

“I'm ready. I hope it won't be too much trouble for you to help me take care of the clothes I wore yesterday?” She asked the maid." Of course not, young miss. I will have your clothes stored in the wardrobe for you next time you visit.” The maid smiled at Rose who nodded her head.“Let's go." She told the maid who started leading her to the living room where everyone was seated waiting for her."Good morning, everyone." Rose greeted with a smile, making everyone turn their attention to her. " Oh, my dear Roseline. You're finally awake.” Anne said as she gestured to Rose who moved closer to her.“You must have been really tired yesterday, look at the time you woke up." She added as she helped Rose tuck her hair behind her ear.“I guess. Um…. thank you for the dress as well.” Rose replied."Don't worry about that. I'm glad it fits you well.” Anne casually replied."We have already had breakfast, we didn't want to disturb you when the maid said you weren't answering. Let me ask the ma

"Shut up!” Victor snapped sharply, his voice quivering with rage. The injustice he felt burned like a firestorm inside him. “They beat me up! They should be begging for my forgiveness! I’m going to sue them all and throw them in jail!” His eyes blazed as he glared at the crowd, his words venomous. “How dare you mess with me? You’re all dead!” The crowd erupted into sneers and laughter. “If anything happens to us, the world will know it’s the Grays who did it,” someone retorted. “You’ll face justice soon enough.” Another voice chimed in, “Miss Rose Gray, it’s pointless to be kind to people like them. They don’t know the meaning of gratitude!” “They’re heartless,” a third agreed. “The more you tolerate them, the worse they’ll treat you.” “Some people are just born wicked,” an older man said, shaking his head. “Victor Gray is the perfect example.” Rose, standing at the center of the storm, glanced at Victor with a faint trace of pity. She sighed softly and said, “But he’s still my

The Gray couple stood devastated, their carefully constructed façade crumbling under the weight of the truth. William seemed to freeze, his face twitching with barely restrained fury. For a moment, he looked like a man teetering on the brink of madness. How can I possibly agree? Everyone is watching and listening. But those shares are mine. MINE. Rose kept her gaze fixed on the floor, her shoulders hunched like a frightened lamb. Her small frame trembled slightly, evoking pity from the onlookers. Poor girl. The crowd whispered amongst themselves. Born into wealth but treated like an outcast in her own family. Even her own father uses her without hesitation. Beatrice’s fists were clenched so tightly her nails dug into her palms. Her mind was racing. No. We can’t give those shares back. They’re ours. Sophia’s and Victor’s future depend on them. She can’t take them from us! Sophia stood frozen, her face burning with suppressed anger. Yet, she dared not speak, remembering the backla

"How could a father steal from his own daughter? Or is she not even considered his daughter?” “Is the Gray Corporation really that desperate now?” Outraged whispers spread among the crowd. Some female reporters expressed their disgust. “Do you only see your son as your child? What about your daughter? This is outrageous!” Someone chimed in, “He surely cares for his daughter, it all just depends on which daughter you're referring to. And it's obvious that you mean Sophia. Look at her outfit! That dress alone is worth more than $100,000, and her jewelry must cost a fortune of a million. However , look at the poor Miss Roseline Gray…” All eyes turned to Rose, and the difference was undeniable. “My God, it seems like the ex-wife’s daughter hasn't been treated well.” “It’s clear who gets the love and resources in this family…” Beatrice Gray’s face tightened as she realized the shift in the room’s mood, but it was too late. Sophia, unable to contain her anger, stood up and snapped a

It was a speech prepared and arranged for Rose to deliver, and it would have sounded far more convincing if she had done so. However, Rose had stayed quiet the entire time, leaving William Gray with no choice but to do it himself."Fake? Photoshop? That’s the best explanation you can offer? Ridiculous! Do you think we’re so blind that we can’t tell the difference between fake and real? Does he truly think we’re stupid?"Some reporters exchanged skeptical glances, their pens pausing mid-sentence. The crowd seemed to share the same sentiment, murmuring in agreement, except for a small group of reporters.Before the other reporters had the chance to challenge him, a few voices rang out from the front row.“Mr. Gray is absolutely correct," one reporter said with exaggerated conviction. "The video lacks credibility. It's easy to manipulate footage these days, especially with advanced editing software."Another voice quickly added, "I agree. It’s well-edited, but if you look closely, you

---The press conference was held at the luxurious Riverview Grand Hotel, a venue known for hosting high-profile events. The large conference room was packed to capacity with journalists, photographers, and reporters from various media, all eager to catch a glimpse of the trending Gray family.As soon as Rose entered the room with William, Beatrice, Victor, and Sophia, the reporters surged forward like a swarm of hungry predators."Roseline Gray, what’s your opinion on the recent video?""Roseline Gray, how do you feel about being attacked by your half-brother Victor Gray?""This isn’t the first time, is it? Why have you stayed silent about the abuse?""Your father didn’t defend you—have you ever resented him for it?""How do you feel about the way your stepmother treats you?""Doesn’t your stepsister Sophia support you either? Do you feel completely isolated?""Roseline Gray, I heard you came back to the country, so what did you do to be beaten up by your step brother?”Question afte

………The next day, Rose dressed carefully for the press conference. She applied a touch of makeup to cover her bruises, though some marks were still visible. She chose a white summer dress, its delicate design giving her an air of fragility.When she descended the stairs, Beatrice was waiting, her irritation evident as Rose had made them for a long time on purpose.“Why are you wearing that? Pick a brighter color! You look better in something cheerful. And put more makeup on!” Beatrice protested as she scanned what Rose was wearing.‘What is she trying to do? Is she trying to look weak on purpose?’ Beatrice fumed internally. ‘This conference is meant to prove the video was false, not the opposite! If anything bad happens to my son, you’ll pay for it!’ she seethed.Rose’s eyes filled with tears as she replied meekly, “Dr. Noah said makeup could cause scarring if applied before my cuts heal. But I thought it would look too obvious without anything, so I used a little to cover most of the

They began the game in silence, the soft clink of chess pieces the only sound. Frank’s moves were calculated, deliberate, but he quickly realized Rose wasn’t an easy opponent. Her strategy was sharp, her responses precise, and it wasn’t long before she had him on the defensive.Frank leaned back in his chair, studying the board with newfound respect. “You’re quite skilled. Your mother must have been an excellent teacher.”“She was,” Rose replied, her tone tinged with fondness. “She always said chess was like life. Every move matters, and you have to think several steps ahead.”Frank nodded, his expression thoughtful. “A wise woman. And what have you learned from this game?”Rose paused, a small smile playing on her lips. “That you’re cautious but adaptable. You test your opponent before committing to a strategy.”Frank raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed. “Well observed. You’ve got a sharp mind, Rose. A rare gift.”“Thank you,” Rose said, warmth creeping into her voice.As the game p

Rose smiled, caught between the two. “I… I didn’t mean to start a competition!” she said, laughing lightly.Frank chuckled and placed a hand on Anne’s shoulder. “It’s not a competition, dear,” he said softly, his voice carrying a reassuring note. “Let her call us whatever she feels comfortable with.”Anne smiled, the playful edge fading. “Well, as long as she knows I’m the most important one,” she said with a wink.Julian laughed, crossing his arms and leaning back casually. “I’ll tell you what Rose, in order to soften the situation. It would be best if you call mom ‘Grandma’ and father ‘Grandfather,’ Deal?”Rose laughed, feeling the warmth of their banter. “Deal!” she said, her heart lightened by the playful atmosphere. She totally forgot that she felt stiffened up earlier.“Well,” she said, giving Anne a quick hug, “I’ll call you Grandma, if you prefer that. I just... I think it slipped out. It feels right.”Anne’s face softened, her smile returning. “Of course, darling. I suppose

*********The grandeur of the Anderson Ancestral home was as breathtaking as ever, with its ornate architecture and sprawling gardens. Though Rose had visited before, this time felt different. It wasn’t a casual visit—it was her escape, her refuge after the chaos at the Gray mansion.Julian guided her inside, where Frank and Anne Anderson awaited in the living room. Despite the familiarity, Rose still felt a twinge of hesitation as she approached them.“Rose, my darling,” Anne said warmly, pulling her into a gentle hug. Her soft hair brushed against Rose’s cheek as she held her close. “I’ve been worried about you. I’m so glad you’re here now.”“Thank you, Grandma,” Rose replied, her voice steady though her heart fluttered at the kindness."My goodness, how on earth did you end up in this state? How dare William Gray let his incompetent fool do this to my precious child? Does he have a death wish?" Anne fumed, her voice trembling with rage. Though most of the wounds were finally heali
