Chapter 175 - Vanished.

Arthur had grabbed Sean and called both Ralph and Harry to his home.

"Why do they always do this?" Sean asked.

"Ask your girlfriend who always visits our home?" Arthur said getting out of his car.

Ralph and Harry had just arrived too. It was then when Sean noticed how tall and handsome they all looked.

"Hi, I just noticed this but we all have such fine handsome features " he laughed.

Arthur frowned, while the other two men just smiled at Sean.

They walked into Arthur's mansion but before they could reach the living room They heard someone scream in fear.

"That's Irene's voice " Sean ran inside the residence.

The others followed him meeting Dorothy in the way.

"They are on the terrace" she pointed out.

The men ran out to the terrace in a rush.

"What happened?" Sean who was in the lead rushed in.

Irene getting up ran into his arms pointing to where now Rose was staring.

Arthur strode in with the others. Harry rushed to Vivian's side while Ralph to Alex.

Arthur didn't approach his wife and watched her stare at the space in the darkness.

"Am okay, tiger " Alex hugged her husband.

Harry moved his coat and draped it on Vivian's shoulders.

"Thank you " she murmured.

"Rose?" Irene turned to her friend.

But she didn't answer, Arthur moved closer to her and touched her hand.

"Butterfly " he called her.

Without warning Rose fell backward, Arthur grabbed her in time.

The others were alarmed by the sudden scene.

Arthur carried her inside and shouted at Dorothy, " Call the doctor " he said.

It was past midnight now since Rose had fainted. Irene had told them about the figure she had seen.

Alex told them about how Rose had claimed to see someone follow them.

"It's creepy enough for them to be following Rose but why the mask?" Sean held Irene in his arms.

They had all decided to stay until Rose woke up but she stayed still till late in the night forcing them to stay for the night.

Only Harry and Vivian didn't share while the other two couples did.

Arthur was upstairs with her, holding her body in his arms until she would wake up and without knowing Arthur had fallen asleep too.

The men woke up early apart from Arthur. Dorothy offered them breakfast which they enjoyed. Alex and Vivian woke up too, joining them at the table.

"Has any of them come downstairs?" Vivian asked.

Sean shook his head and looked up the stairs.

"I hope she's okay or Arthur will turn this into something big "Sean sighed.

" I can see the security has already been tightened " Harry looked out the big window.

The guards had been doubled within the night.

"You don't know how he reacts when it comes to Rose " Sean sipped his coffee.

As they were still talking they heard someone come down the stairs. All eyes turned to find out who it was.

Rose had woken up in Arthur's arms. She gently pushed his arm away from her waist and got out of bed

Her mouth and brain yelled for something sweet and all she could think of was ice cream. Moving down the stairs she ignored the eyes that were on her and walked to the fridge.

Her eyes landed on the ice cream she had bought last night, with a smile she pulled one out and grabbed a spoon.

Opening the lid off, Rose scooped up a big chunk of strawberry flavored ice cream into her mouth. With her mouth still melting the piece inside, she was dipping the spoon in again for another piece.

Sean had noticed Arthur walk in a minute later after Rose. He walked to where Rose was and grabbed her hand before she could place the second piece into her mouth.

The others at the table had been watching silently. Arthur glared down at Rose, who looked away with a guilty face.

She murmured something but nothing came out with the huge piece of cream in her mouth.

Ignoring the others just like Rose did, Arthur bent down grabbing his wife's face, and kissed her lips. His tongue slid into Rose's mouth tasting the strawberry from the ice cream. His tongue dragged away from the remaining chunk of ice cream from her mouth into his.

Rose watched him lick his lips after with a smile.

Sean cursed under his breath while the others looked away in surprise at what they had seen.

"Can I have just a little, I want something sweet " Rose cried.

The others could hear her beg Arthur. Tempted to look at what Arthur would do Vivian, Alex, Harry, and Ralph looked again only Sean didn't bother to look.

"Okay, but we do it my way "Arthur smiled.

Arthur picked up the spoon with some ice cream and took it into his mouth, after melting it in his, he bent down and kissed Rose again. Through his deep long kiss, Arthur shared the ice cream with Rose.
