Chapter 13 - 12

Sabrina was crying in her living room and Ella, Lily, Sabina, Alena and Mia were consoling her.

"I can't believe Ermanno suggested to marry Rose" said Arlo.

"What do you think his motive is?" Asked Nevio.

"Motive? Do you think Thomas is right? Do you think he wants to hurt Rose?" Asked Ambryl.

"And what did Thomas mean by hurting and abusing Sofia. Did Ermanno hit Sofia?" Asked Ella.

"They were in a BDSM relationship. Ermanno had brought Sofia multiple times to my clinic" said Mia.

"When Ermanno was dating Sofia, he was also training in BDSM." Said Nevio.

"Maybe Thomas was unaware of their relationship and thought Ermanno was abusing her" said Lily.

"What should we do next?" Asked Ambryl.

"I don't think we should do anything. We should let the situation take its own course. Ermanno is an a.d.u.l.t and he should be able to make his own decisions. If he really want to make amends with Rose, let him prove himself" Said Zeke.

Sabrina stopped crying and nodded with what Zeke said.

....

Ermanno was seated in his apartment and EJ was pacing in front of him.

Remy and Ivanov were seated in the bar.

"Whats the plan man?" asked Remy.

"What else would be the plan than to create more Chaos and do shit for us to clean." Said EJ and looked at Ermanno and continued "dude I have been by your side in every f.u.c.k.i.e.d up situation. I have covered for you multiple times. I have gotten your drunken ass home every time you couldn't f.u.c.k.i.n.g walk. I have supported you in everything till now. But I draw a line here. I will not let you spoil an innocent girls life in the name of getting back on her."

"EJ, come on, let him explain himself. Maybe he really wants to make amends." Said Ivanov.

EJ looked at Ermanno waiting for an explanation.

Ermanno left a long breath and said "I want to change myself man. Mom is always worried of me. And dad is pissed off of me all the time. Mom made me come back and stay in the mansion and constantly worried that she may lose me. I need to get my act together. I love my mom way too much to see her like this. I have seen her cry for me so many times. She comes to my room at night and sits on my bed and strokes my hair and cries for me. No. I am done hurting her. She always loved Rose, even when i was dating Sofia. She always praised Rose. Today she called me to the boutique to meet Rose. My mom is so innocent that she can't even pull out a single sneaky thing. She thought I couldn't figure out what Rose was doing there when she invited me too. And when Ambryl grandma said they were talking about arrange marriage I knew mom was trying to set me up with Rose. But I could also see she was hesitant to say Rose's name after Arlo uncle shook his head. Arlo uncle knows me too well. Even better than dad and knows I hurt many girl's calling Rose's name.

But now I want to change the image I have created for myself and make it a better one. And Rose will help me with that" said Ermanno.

"Thomas will not agree" said Remy.

"It's not him who I want to marry. It's Rose. And she will marry me" said Ermanno.

"How?" Asked EJ.

Ermanno smirked and said "you'll see"

...............................

Rose was in her room when a maid came in and told her that her Mom was asking for her presence.

Rose came down the stairs from her room and entered the sitting area and froze in her tracks seeing Ermanno looking at her seated with her mother.

"Hello Rose. How are you this pleasant morning?" asked Ermanno.

Rose couldn't say anything and only stared at him.

"Rose, Ermanno asked you a question" said Cindy.

Rose could only nod in response.

"Ermanno wants to take you out for coffee. Go get ready" said Cindy.

Rose looked at her Mom and then at Ermanno.

"She looks fine Cindy. We should leave. And thank you for allowing me to take her out" said Ermanno.

"Oh. There is no need to be formal Ermanno." Laughed Cindy.

Ermanno got up from his seat and went close to Rose and said "shall we leave?"

Rose looked at her Mom and her Mom nodded.

Rose looked back at Ermanno and weakly nodded.

Ermanno could see how freightened she was and that's how he wanted her. But for now he wanted to charm her.

Ermanno pulled Rose by her arm to the entrance and walked to his car and told her to get in.

Rose was a scared and shivering but got in the car anyways.

Ermanno got in the driver's seat and looked at Rose and asked "ready"

Rose shook her head no and Ermanno smirked.
