Chapter-76

Author's POV

The next day, he drove off to the Mansion, early, with a bouquet of Red Roses and her favourite macaroons. He thought she would accept his apology.

But!

Rose knew ignorance wouldn't take her anywhere. He might even punish her for that.

She decided to talk to him about his violent tendencies and anger issues. She wanted to make him understand that she was afraid of his violent nature. She just wanted him to change. Change for her.

When Layana informed her about Donovan's order to join him in the breakfast, she rolled her eyes. She would've disobeyed him but last night's warnings were still fresh in her mind. Besides, she wanted to talk with him. So she joined him in the breakfast without any reluctance.

Donovan waited until she ate her breakfast. None of them spoke. It was Donovan who broke the silence. He gave her the Red Rose bouquet saying that he was sorry for last night's behaviour.

By last night's behaviour, he only meant dragging her towards him and displacing his anger on Rose. That's it.

Rose thought he was sorry for causing the entire drama and was happy.

" If you regret it...why would you try to hurt someone in the first place?" she even asked, not understanding the context of his apology.

Donovan thought that 'someone' meant her.

" I didn't drag you intentionally. I was angry...flower," he explained, as a matter of fact.

That's when Rose scoffed.

" I didn't mean that. I know it wasn't intentional. I was speaking about your behaviour with Layana and that absolutely unreasonable warning" Rose didn't know how her words were infuriating him.

She stated what she felt. She didn't find the necessity to glitter up her words.

" Will you stop mentioning Layana? It is her fucking job.
I pay her to do the goddamn job. Not to forget things and cry.!" Donovan's words came out rude. Rose was clearly annoyed.

" And what's unreasonable is.. you..my flower..thinking that my warnings are unreasonable! Don't do it flower. Don't. Do. It. " He was pissed off.

" Donovan...this is not right. You should manage your anger. You cannot act crazy just because you are a DON. Why don't you stop this? This is not good---"

He didn't even let her finish. He tried to control his anger but failed. Pulling her towards him roughly, he hissed in anger

" Don't you fucking tell me what to do! Just obey my fucking words or there will be consequences!" Donovan gritted, pushing her back.

Rose was hurt by his words.

She didn't know why he was acting like this.

She should've remained silent but she was angry too.

" Who the hell do you think you are to order me? You are freaking nuts. That's it!" she spat angrily and threw the bouquet on his face.

" Shove that bouquet down your ass!" She shouted in his face and steadied herself to dash out from there.

But Donovan caught her.
