Marrying The Enemy

CHAPTER 2

　　Robert ignored the woman's words. He took Rose's hand with his left hand. After giving Kenzie to Jasmine, Robert pulled Rose away from the crowd to the top floor, where the bridal chamber had been prepared.

　　"What do you want?" Rose refrained from entering the room.

　　"He couldn't have done that to me, could he?" thought Rose. The girl was horrified if she had to spend the wedding night with Robert.

　　"Do you want it?" Robert looked at Rose with a gentle gaze that was so piercing.

　　"You're disgusting!"

　　"Rose… Rose…." Robert laughed.

　　He forced the woman into the room. Robert then left Rose alone and locked the bridal chamber, leaving Rose alone in the room filled with rose petals.

　　"Robert, open the door!" Rose banged on the door and realized the man wouldn't do what she wanted.

　　The woman sat weakly on the bed. She had checked all the rooms and realized there was no other way out, other than the door that had been locked by Robert.

　　The girl wept bitterly, lamenting her fate of having to marry a man who had abandoned her sister and nephew. Rose can't accept the fact that before she died,

　　Ruby still hoped that the man would return to her.

　　"If only I hadn't provoked Robert and left town with Kenzie and Daddy, then none of this would have happened," lamented Rose reminiscing about what had happened months before the wedding.

　　Six months earlier, at the funeral home.

　　Rose's teeth chattered at the man standing a few meters in front of her. A handsome man with short dark hair combed neatly with a touch of hair oil. The man was currently standing proudly toweringly staring intently at him.

　　"How dare he show the bridge of his nose in this place." Rose thought with hatred.

　　Rose's short fingernails had sunk into her hands, digging deeper and deeper into the skin. The woman was trying so hard to hold back the emotions that were about to overflow when the unwanted man came to her sister's funeral.

　　Rose wanted to scream to get rid of the man who had hurt Ruby until the end of her life. She really wanted to scream so that everyone would know what a handsome man who is so adored and even respected by many people looks like.

　　Rose's jaw tightened as the man approached her. Spontaneously she pulled a five year old little boy to stand behind her. She wouldn't let that bastard touch the boy with the tip of his finger.

　　"Rose, I'm sorry." The deep voice sounded sympathetic, but not to her.

　　The man's face looked cloudy with his head slightly lowered, showing clearly the deep sorrow caused by Ruby's departure. However, that didn't move Rose's tender heart to believe it either. To Rose, that man was the most accomplished con artist in this world.

　　"Take off your mask and get out of here, Robert Miller," Rose hissed hatefully.

　　Robert Miller was stunned by the sharp words that came out of the soft and fragile figure before him. The beautiful woman who is the sister of Ruby, his ex-lover, doesn't really want his presence. The woman's face reddened with hatred.

　　"You're angry, I understand. But don't expect me to leave without my child." Robert's firm words in a low voice took Rose by surprise.

　　"Your son? Since when did you have children?" Rose scornfully glared at Robert.

　　"Rose." Robert growled and stifled.

　　Robert sighed slowly remembering that it wasn't the right time for her to act tough right now. The funeral home was filled with many guests who came to sympathize as a final tribute.

　　He couldn't just force his will and cause trouble, because after all, his image as a famous doctor who always appeared in health shows on television and also a symbol of the face of the hospital, should not be tarnished. Robert chose to remain silent and relented at this point.

　　"Kenzie, Daddy's coming back for you." Robert tilted his head to look at the little boy hiding behind Rose's back.

　　"No! You're never coming back because you don't have any rights over Kenzie." Rose hissed furiously at Robert.

　　The handsome doctor just gave Rose a cold look with a haughty expression. He wanted so badly to drag the woman over and then cover her sharp mouth with gauze, bandaging it like a mummy so those lips could no longer underestimate her.

　　Robert chose to stay away, he sat in the middle of the room where his eyes could freely stare directly at Rose. Rose's provocation aroused the spirit in Robert to make the woman die and kneel to beg for mercy.

　　Robert's gaze turned to the little boy who had a very pale face. Handsome boy with Miller family genes he never acknowledged before. Those innocent eyes were so puffy it made Robert's hard heart melt.

　　"I didn't think Ruby would actually give birth to that child without my permission." said Robert to himself.

　　It is still clear in Robert's memory when he suspected that Ruby was deliberately pregnant and held him accountable. Ruby was one of Robert's favorite lovers when he was not yet a specialist in medicine.

　　Ruby's pregnancy infuriated him, how could an aspiring nurse not be able to take care of herself to prevent pregnancy, when Robert trusted her so much that she never used protection when they had s*x.

　　"Father!" The shrill screams and mournful cries that escaped Kenzie's lips snapped Robert out of his thoughts.

　　His eyes fell on the figure of the man Kenzie called father. He could see how the boy was crying and hugged the man very tightly. There was an uncomfortable feeling in his chest when he saw his biological son more intimately with other men.

　　Rose's jaw tightened as the man approached her. Spontaneously she pulled a five year old little boy to stand behind her. She wouldn't let that bastard touch the boy with the tip of his finger.

　　"Rose, I'm sorry." The deep voice sounded sympathetic, but not to her.

　　The man's face looked cloudy with his head slightly lowered, showing clearly the deep sorrow caused by Ruby's departure. However, that didn't move Rose's tender heart to believe it either. To Rose, that man was the most accomplished con artist in this world.

　　"Take off your mask and get out of here, Robert Miller," Rose hissed hatefully.

　　Robert Miller was stunned by the sharp words that came out of the soft and fragile figure before him. The beautiful woman who is the sister of Ruby, his ex-lover, doesn't really want his presence. The woman's face reddened with hatred.

　　"You're angry, I understand. But don't expect me to leave without my child." Robert's firm words in a low voice took Rose by surprise.

　　"Your son? Since when did you have children?" Rose scornfully glared at Robert.

　　"Rose." Robert growled and stifled.
