Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress

She shivered. She was in extreme pain not from being stabbed but her heart was the one in the pain right now. Her heart sank hopelessly into the dark. Right there and then, her whole world collapsed in front of her. "Aren't you too smart, sister? It was easy for you to connect the dots. That's right you've been poisoned." Sophia admitted, all smiles in mockery at Roseline.

Roseline gulped. She remembered that Sophia had brought her drink earlier to drink. She didn't think much about it and happily collected it from her sister not knowing that it was already poisoned by Sophia.

"How could you do this to me?" No, why are you both doing this to me?! Answer me, Henry and stop hiding behind Sophia like a coward!" Roseline yelled furiously at Henry. She hadn't had the chance to ask Sophia why she was also doing this to her since it was obvious that she might be jealous of her. She needed answers from Henry himself.

"What exactly do you mean by that you've been enduring me for the past ten years? We grew up together, in high school and even college. Did you forget how you kept chasing me around for a whole year before I finally agreed to be your girlfriend? And then I accepted your proposal after we did our wedding and have been married for a good fucking four years!! Did you forget all those promises you made on our wedding day?!?" She questioned him in a hoarse voice.

"Geez, calm down sister. At this rate you'd only let the poison spread quickly and the pain would be too much-"

"Shut the fuck up, Sophia!! I was talking to the bastard next to you!" Roseline yelled, cutting her off and glared dangerously at her. Sophia wouldn't lie that she didn't feel the murderous intent of the gaze.

Henry ignored her and turned Sophia's face to him and passionately kissed her on the lips. He only let go of her when the kiss became intense. He finally turned to look at Roseline who was clutching her stomach and barely keeping her balance to stand. "How naive of you. Take a look at yourself. Despite you dressing in an expensive dress, you still can't match the beauty Sophia possesses. You're nothing compared to my Sophia. How could you be worthy of me? You're nothing but a brick wall in my house, if not because of what you possess, did you actually think I'd fake liking you in the slightest?" His eyes were filled with disdain directed at Roseline.

Roseline felt like a bucket of freezing cold water had been poured over her, when she heard his heartless words which caused a dull pain in her heart.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She couldn't believe that the man she loved so deeply was always disgusted by her and wanted to kill her! She had been so careful, but in the end, she was destroyed by that same man as well.

Sophia's lips curled up when she saw the pale expression on Roseline's face. "Does it hurt so much, sister?" She asked but her voice was filled with mockery.

A sudden fear seized her, and her instinct response was to run, run to the crowd. "Sophia, just wait until dad hears about what you both have done. He'd kill you and mom won't forgive you either for........."

Yes, she wasn't alone. She still has a father. She had always been her father's favorite of the three. She knew that he wouldn't let anyone harm her, anyone, including her younger sister. As for her mother, even though she was her stepmother, she had always treated her like her own daughter. She would always tell her everything.

She had hardly managed to take a few steps forward when she felt a sharp pain in her stomach. It dragged her back and she lost her balance again. Her dress was completely soaked with blood and she didn't need to be told that she was already losing a lot of blood. Sophia suddenly burst into a fit of laughter hearing Roseline's declaration. "Are you trying to seek help from dad? You're indeed the most brainless stupid rich little girl I've seen in all my life! You only know how to turn to dad for help - you poor little thing. Let me tell you the truth, Dad is aware of everything. And he has also planned the whole damn thing except for the part where Henry stabbed you, but you got what you deserve. Your fancy wedding was just a mere cover up for the whole plan." Sophia revealed.

Cover up? Roseline fiercely shook her head in denial. It can't be true, it's definitely a lie. There is no way she should believe a word Sophia was saying. No, he is my father, he wouldn't do that! How could he? Why would he?' Roseline heard herself denying it in her head. A resentful and jealous expression overflowed Sophia's extraordinarily beautiful face as she stared at Roseline. "You were even stupid enough to not realize the fact that my mother was only pretending, even a two year old can see that. Did you think that she loved you? It was only a trap, dear sister. Do you understand now you fucking stupid idiot?!?!" Sophia couldn't control her anger and let it all out.

Roseline blinked her eyes. How was she so blinded to the extent that she wasn't able to tell fake from real? This was obviously her fault.

The word 'trap' felt like she had been hit by a huge truck and a giant rock crushed on her. The words around her began to spin and she didn't need to be told the cause of it. The effect of the so-called poison was already taking effect, plus the fact that she was suffering from being stabbed and losing a lot of blood. She felt her chest tighten and instantly her legs gave out making her fall to her knees.

Despite blood slipping from the corner of her mouth, the only thought running through her head was that her father couldn't do what Sophia was saying.

No matter how busy her father was, he always made it such to celebrate her birthday with her, every year. He would always buy her gifts and presents anytime he was away on a business trip. She recalled that he always told her 'My little Rose is the sweetest girl in the world. She is the best thing that has ever happened to him?' Hearing all of these things usually made her feel loved.

She remembered how much effort he had put into her wedding. He was practically the one who arranged most of the things, the wedding dress, the venue, the jewelry and everything...... He promised her an unforgettable wedding and he gave it to her. So how could her father who loved her so much do this to her.
