Rose cursed herself for taking an initiative to greet Rhehan and join him for breakfast.. She was walking back to the penthouse grumbing under her breath.

"Why did I even say hello to him? Did he think i am a stupid girl who will sleep with him? Who does he think he is? That pevert! I was just trying to be nice to him and he took advantage of it!"

Rose entered the living room and kicked away her slippers with great force. One of them landed on her brother who was sitting sleepily on the couch.

"Hey! Are you an idiot?" Complained James, throwing the slipper back at her.

Rose easily evaded his attack and the footwear ended up hitting an antique vase, one of their mother's priced possessions.

The two siblings gaped panic-struck as the vase hit the floor and broke in numerous tiny pieces, creating a loud thud.

"What did you two break now?" Came a shreiking voice from another room. As soon as the two heard their mother approaching they quickly fled the scene of the crime in their respective rooms , locking themselves up.

Cafe Island

Rhehan was lying on the ground and was stupified when Rose's slippers had touched him. He could not believe he gave somebody that much power to insult him. By that time the entire staff had come to help him get up.

"Boss, are you fine?"

"You look hurt. Should we call a doctor"?

Rhehan came back to senses after hearing their concern.

"I am fine. Don't bother," replied Rhehan softly getting up from the floor as gracefully as he could. He could feel the heat escaping from his cheek due the high impact. The stinging sensation on his cheek was not comparable to the blow on his ego and public image.
