Chapter 136 - Skip This



**Please skip this chapter*this is a repeat of the last chapter*

"I think you should go back to your room. You are a very bad influence," she finally said with a sigh.

"We could use the resources Mr. Hale might be willing to offer while I will be the brain behind all the plans. I will go to my room just like you said I should but I am going to do some thinking. I will come up with a plan we can discuss over and perhaps let Mr. Hale know," he told her as he stood up.

"Go ahead. And I will be glad if you bring a few magazines when you come," she said.

"Sure. I will ask Leah to bring them because I don't want to leave the premises of the hospital yet," he agreed.

"Bye," she told him with a wave and watched him leave. She sighed as she relaxed.

Leah walked in after a gentle knock on the door. "Have you eaten dinner" she asked when she got to Rose who sat on her bed with a novel.

"Yes," she replied closing the novel and placed it the bed giving Leah her complete attention.

"I have been too busy to check on you these days. I spoke to your doctor and he said your mother wants you to return to B city. Is that what you want?" Leah asked sitting on a chair close to the bed.

"Yes, I don't want to miss my graduation. I have a lot of awards to receive. I can't miss the fun of everything. I have missed enough," Rose replied sincerely but sounded playful.

"I know I don't have the right to speak about your relationship with Mr. Hale but I think it is right you resolve whatever went wrong before you return to B city," Leah advised her cautiously.

"I don't have anything against him in particular," Rose replied calmly as she picked her novel up once again and opened to the page she stopped on earlier.

"The whole thing was Charlie's idea. Liam was still unconscious when he planned it," Leah explained.

"And he obviously went along with the crazy plan. I am not angry. He obviously proved his point and I understand. I believe he is powerful enough to protect me. I just don't want to see his face now after all I will be seeing it a lot when I come back here after the graduation," Rose said venting what she had bottled up although holding back the most important thing of all.

"Like I said, I don't have the right to say anything about your relationship with my boss but I will advise you as a friend and the mother of your best friend. You should make good use of the resources you have while you still have it.

"Mr. Hale can become king without you existence. You might not know how powerful and ruthless he is but I assure you that it will be hell to be on his bad side. You are lucky to have won his heart which is what both male and female will be willing to kill to earn.

"You have his wealth and power in control. It is best to use it right. You can't let go of such an opportunity. This is an opportunity to save your people, get your vengeance and sit on the throne perhaps without moving a single finger. Use it while you still have it. You don't have an eternity," Leah advised her without pausing.

Rose was surprised at first but since Leah did not give her the chance to interrupt, she fixed her gaze on the book she held her eyes unable to understand a single word on the page she stared at. She closed her eyes and exhaled when Leah finally ended her sermon.

"I am sorry if I offended you in any way," Leah did not forget to apologise to the apple of her boss' eye before she stood up.

"You did not offend me at all. I guess I must seem like a spoilt brat to everyone including Mr. Hale. It was not my fault that I was scared witless due to the stunt he pulled. I thought I was going to die. I think I have every right to be offended," Rose justified her actions closing the book and putting it aside again.

"You are lucky he treats you well enough to apologise. Mr. Hale doesn't give his apology to just anyone," Leah informed Rose. "Your doctor thinks you are well enough to move to B city although you will still need medical attention. I advise you to come back after your graduation."

"Sure," Rose agreed with a smile. She likes Leah and she was not going to take going to take offense.

"I am glad you listened to what I had to say," Leah said exhaling in relief.

"You made sense. I was actually waiting for a tangible reason to forgive him. I guess I have to much pride," she replied easily.

"You also have so much beauty. You should use it to your advantage. That is a skill women are born with. Use your beauty to your advantage. It won't hurt because you will be on the winning side," Leah advised with a wink.

Rose chuckled. Leah was giving her tips on how to use her boss to her advantage. This was something she must have been missing for all these while. The advice meant a lot. How will it feel to have the great Mafia King under her spell?

Access to his wealth alone was enough. She will definitely not hesitate.

"I guess you understand what I mean," Leah said wriggling her brow in a manner that made her look decades younger than her age.

"Hmm . . . I do. I will use the resources I have. I promise I will not tell Mr. Hale it was all your idea," Rose said teasingly.

"Oh goodness," Leah hissed when she understood the obvious meaning of what Rose said.

Rose laughed enjoying the conversation. "I just made a promise so relax," Rose said teasingly.

"I hope you keep your promise your royal highness," Leah laughed softly.

"I will but if I need any advice in the future, I will come to you. I think I will need more guidance as time goes on," Rose said sincerely maintaining a jovial smile.

"We will have to make our meetings very secret and in a secluded place. Make sure the location stays secret," Leah whispered jokingly.

"I am serious," Rose told her.

"I am not sure I will be able to say more. I don't know about things like that myself. I have never had to manipulate anyone before," Leah told her with a sigh.

"You do. You made me your friend," Rose replied sincerely. "You know how to make people like you almost immediately."

"I have enemies, okay? And I don't think you need to make him your friend because you are already his friend. That skill is not important." She has done enough already and that was definitely not going to offend her boss but Mr. Hale will be offended if it goes any further. She glanced at her wrist watch.

"You are busy right?" Rose asked although she knew very well that Leah was trying to escape.

"Yes, I am busy. I am sorry I can not spend more time with you. Take care," Leah said nodding as she kept her gaze down to avoid seeing Rose's sad and disappointed eyes.

"Thank you. I know you are busy saving lives and it is very important. Please, try to come here more often since I will be leaving by next week," Rose pleaded with a slight pout she knew Leah won't notice since she wasn't looking at her.

"I will try. I advise you that you shouldn't listen to everything Carl says. He is very ruthless although he is a genius and that is an important trait you will need in your first subordinates.

"Make sure he tells you all his plans. If you can't stop him from doing anything you are against, it will be best to keep him at arms length or he might be uncontrollable in the future.

"He told me he was your subordinate. He seemed very excited. I think he is good enough but you should also be careful. Although the fact that he is your cousin and in a similar situation as you, makes him a good candidate."

Rose nodded in agreement. Carl was a gem but he will lose his value if he gets uncontrollable. "I don't think he will be able to do anything without my permission. He promised to tell me what plan he comes up with," Rose replied sincerely.

"That's good. I wish you good luck. Bye," Leah said after glancing at her wrist watch once again.

Rose waved at her. She picked up her novel to read when Leah closed the door but she found herself replaying her conversation with Leah on her mind. She could manipulate Liam while watching her back to avoid getting backstabbed. She could also begin to plan with Carl on how to be in a better state than the powerless state she was in right now.

She was willing to accept Liam's help but she was not willing to be fully dependent on him. She needed a crew and power of her own.
