Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

344 344. Rose's confession



“I plan to start up a security company. I will hire contracted bodyguards to the ones who need them. The men working under me are willing to stick by my side and I will offer them the job soon when the plan is made. But-” he turned towards Markus.

“I will need some guidance and help. I don’t have much knowledge about business and companies.” Jason said honestly.

“Don’t worry. Just ask whatever you need, I’ll help you out with everything.” Though Markus didn’t say much, he meant and did everything he had said.

Jason nodded in return. 

Once they were back home, Jaosn went to his room and called Rose and Harry there to discuss the same.

As Kizy, they both protested, but finally Jason reasoned out with them, even suggesting some of the things they could start doing after this.

Ultimately Jason won in convincing them, along with telling them about what plans he had for himself.

Both Rose and Harry agreed to this and agreed to everything happily.

Once done with everything, Harry and Rose decided to leave. But suddenly Rose changed her mind.

“You go ahead, I have something to discuss with Jason privately.” Rose said, to which Harry nodded and left.

“What is it, Rose?” Jason asked.

Rose took a deep breath, finalising on something. She had spent a lot of years on developing these one sided feelings but guess it was high time now.

She realised that Jason had no interest in her, and just like Jason said, she should search for something to start fresh. She couldn’t stay stuck in him for a lifetime.

Hence she decided that rejection might be the best way to end things. She had tried to explain herself multiple times, but nothing worked. She just couldn’t let go of his thoughts.

With that she steeled her heart, knowing this might be the best way to forget him. Maybe she would be heartbroken, but at least hearing solid ‘No’ from him helped her move on.

“Rose.” Jason called her out again, feeling she was struggling with something.

“Jason, I wanted to tell you something. Guess this might be the right occasion.” Rose said.

“Go ahead.” Jason said.

“Jason.” Rose said and paused.

‘You can do it. Deep breath. Three. Two. One.’ She told herself in mind before blurting out.

“I love you.” Finally, finally she said those three words which had haunted her sleep on endless days and were reasons for her daydreaming in between.

Jason was visibly shocked, stunned for a complete minute before Rose resumed, feeling more confident.

“I know I took you by surprise, but I know you feel nothing towards me. 

I tried to distract myself from you a lot of times, but nothing worked. So maybe this is the best way. To face a direct rejection. 

I know this is embarrassing and maybe this might make things awkward between us later on, but for now I am making a selfish decision to stop those emotions for once and all.

I can not keep loving you secretly the way you do for my second sister. Sorry for shocking you this way, but guess this is my ultimate option.” Rose said, her smile not reaching her eyes.

Afterall it wasn’t about days or months, it was years. She had even thought about forever keeping those feelings to herself while working by his side.

But now that they were already on a point from where they would be walking different paths, she needed to get him out of her heart.

“You knew about Diamond?” Jason asked after some time.

“Hmm. I could see that in your eyes Jason.” Rose said, her heart breaking for Jason. Afterall he was still carrying on even after going through all this.

“Rose. I have a request.” Jason said after thinking carefully.

“What request?” Rose asked with a confused face.

“Can you give me some time to think over your confession? I promise I won’t keep you hanging for long. Maybe five days to think this through.” Jason said.

“You.. you mean you are considering it?” Rose asked in a shock, knowing this was the worst.

If he would have downright rejected her, she would have taken her own time to heal and get back to her feet.

But now her heart was already carrying hopes for a positive answer. This was the problem with time.

Jason nodded to which Rose only replied “Sure” before leaving his room, wanting to go and talk with someone, most probably Kizy.

Three days. It took Jason three days to a “Yes!!!”.

“I know I might not have the same feelings for you. But I want to give it a try. 

And don’t get me wrong. This is not something I am doing to get past Diamond. I know I will never have her. But that doesn’t mean I’ll use you to get over those feelings.

I genuinely want to start again, just like our professions, I want to give a better beginning to my mind as well.” Jason said calmly after thinking it all through.

They gave each other some more time, before finally breaking the news to family and friends.

All of them were happy to see them together. The only thing worrying everyone now was Victor.

Nicole felt better having Rose by her side as Jason started spending more time with Victor at the hospital, she was slightly getting back to her original chirpy behaviour.

Meanwhile Jason also started focusing on the security company, though this time he had Rose by his side. They had decided to build this in partnership and were working on it together.

On the other hand, Nina as promised, took Joel to meet her parents. She was still laughing internally, looking at how the usually calm Joel was nervous as hell over meeting her parents.

But finally it wasn’t as difficult as Joel had imagined. Nina’s parents were easygoing and open minded. Plus with Joel’s relation with Kizy and Markus, it only added him in her parents’ good books.

“See I told you, there was nothing to be nervous about.” Nina said while laughing at Joel after coming out of her house and going to a nearby cafe.

But midway, Joel suddenly stopped, confusing Nina, only to kiss her for the first time, not imagining the news would make headlines the very next day.
