The Female Lead Is A Lesbian - Volume 1 Chapter 41 Cold
( Meanwhile at the Chang household)
Donny sat in a leather chair in a den with a glass of whiskey in his hand. He wore a black vest over a black button-up shirt, a pair of black pants with black dress socks, black leather shoes, and a gold watch.
Rose sat in a chair opposite of him wearing a white silk nightdress with thin straps, soft white slippers, a thin light pink shawl over her nightdress, and her hair in a messy bun. She had her hands calmly folded on her lap, her posture straight as can be, and an emotionless face.
Donny looked at her seriously and said, ” Rose, I’d like to apologize for my behavior yesterday. It’s just that with your useless whore of a sister Zoey putting my deal with the Rong’s in jeopardy and ending up in the hospital. Along with that video of you, it’s just-*SIGH*”
Rose put on a kind smile and replied, ” Dad it’s okay. It’s entirely my fault for making you and your business suffer.”
Donny smiled and sat his drink down, ” Ah, you really are such a good girl. Don’t worry, daddy won’t take away your allowance but you do need to start handling your own problems.”
” I know that daddy and I already have a way to sweep this under the rug. So you don’t have to worry.” Rose replied sweetly.
Donny’s smile grew bigger and he said, ” Alright, I’ll trust you but remember you can always come to me if you need something. Now, head up to bed, get your beauty sleep.”
Rose nodded and quickly stood up and walked out of the den. Once she was out of the room her facial expression soured. She had a pissed scowl and she clenched her hands into fists. “Watch who you’re talking to you old fart. I’ll be the one to put the nail in your coffin.”
“Ooh, hey Rose. You ok? You look angry.” Rose spun around to be met with a slim boy wearing light pink shorts, a long-sleeved light pink shirt, and a light pink face mask that rested on his head. He had short dark brown hair and light green eyes.
It was Alan Long, Lilly Long’s son. Rose glared at him and snarled, ” Well if it isn’t the transvestite.”
” I know that you mean to insult me but you’re not that far off.” Alan retorted.
This was true as Alan loved women’s clothes and frequently liked to crossdress to express himself and he honestly looked good doing it. He was often asked out by guys and girls alike and was even offered modeling positions.
Rose rolled her eyes and said angrily, ” Oh, I care so much about insulting a f.u.c.k.i.n.g homo.”
Alan retorted once again, ” Well, that’s true, kind of. I mean I am half homo or isn’t that bis.e.x.u.a.l?” Rose opened her mouth to insult him again when somebody interrupted her, ” Alan stop it. Mom told us being catty isn’t right.”
A woman appeared behind Alan. She was wearing a baggy white t-shirt, baggy black shorts, and white socks. She also had black hair in a pixie style hair cut and the same color eyes as Alan.
She was Sunny Long, Alan’s sister. She was a tomboy and was secretly the leader of a biker gang.
” I wasn’t being catty. I only asked Rose what’s wrong and she nearly bit my head off. And I was only correcting her as her statements were a bit off.” Alan explained.
*PAK* “OW!” Sunny flicked Alan in the head and turned to Rose. “I’m sorry for Alan’s behavior but Rose like it or not we’re family and we shouldn’t resort to such arguments and schemes.” She said.
Rose smirked and if her hair was down she would have done a bitchy hair flip. So instead she put her hand on her hip and said, ” Oh look who it is, the self-righteous tomboy. *heh* You know, I still think something happened in the w.o.m.b with you two cause it’s obvious that you both got switched up along the way.”
” Again with the insults. Rose, you really need to grow up.” Sunny lectured.
Rose chuckled, “*Pfft hahaha* My, oh my you really are self-righteous. You say we’re family but, isn’t Zoey family?”
Sunny and Adam flinched and looked down at their feet ashamed. Sunny then stammered, ” W-we, th-that’s-, ” and clenched her hands into fists.
Rose interrupted her by going on, ” I can remember her and Zack just crying their eyes out because you always took their toys. Because you always got them in trouble with dad. Because-,”
“Th-that’s not true! Our mom made us! A-and the only reason she did that was because your mom tricked her.” Sunny exclaimed.
Rose retorted, ” Oh, now look who’s childish. Blaming others for your mistakes. Well, I guess that is easier. But let’s face the facts you didn’t have to do what your mom said.
Hell, you could have resisted even a little when she told you too but you were more than happy to pick on them. I didn’t do anything at all but watch as you, Alan, Yumi, and Patrick laughed as Zoey tried to shield her brother from all of you.”
Alan clenched his arm with one hand and bit his quivering lip. Sunny stuttered again, ” We, W-w-we, ” and she was interrupted by Rose who had a wicked smirk.
” Oh, and here comes Sunny with another excuse. How about you shut the f.u.c.k up!? Just because you don’t wanna believe it doesn’t mean it isn’t true.
Wake up! Your mother and Iris could’ve left well enough alone and just continue to live here as dad’s mistresses. They could have not gotten pregnant. They could have raised you by themselves and had dad pay child support. They could have just become single mothers. But no, oh no no no, they used their own children to take what they want, fairly corrupting them in the process.
Now, look at you and your mother now. You, ” She pointed to Alan, ” Are a sarcastic, mean bitch who’s a wannabe model and a shame to the family. And look at you, ” she pointed to Sunny, ” The mean and tough gang leader who rides a 10,000 dollar custom motorcycle, who wears a 5,000 dollar leather jacket and designer clothes all paid for by her dad. Then she goes out to act like a bad girl.
Kicking ass and taking names, seeming like a strong independent woman who no man can control. When really you’re a spoiled brat who made a gang just to chase after some guy.
*hah* Then there’s your mother who used you for revenge. Yet you still think she cares for you. You guys are her meal tickets and the only reason she gets to stay here. So, of course, she’ll treat you well.
What makes all this worse is that you feel no remorse for what you’ve done. Let me guess you’re gonna say that you tried to apologize. By sending them money that you know they won’t accept? You don’t even bother to visit them in that hellhole they call home.
You don’t even bother to call, not even when Zoey was in critical condition in the hospital. It’s said that it was a miracle that she made such a phenomenal recovery. But, how much do you want to bet that they’re now even deeper in debt?
*hahaha* I bet they are sleeping on the street in less than a month.”
Sunny glared at Rose. She bit her lip so hard it bled and clenched her hands so hard her nails dug into her palms.
Rose kept on a smirk and put a hand to her mouth to fake a shocked look, ” Oh, so scary!” she mocked.
She then rubbed her throat and had a look of great discomfort. “*Cough cough Ugh*, I talked so much so fast that my throat is sore. I think I’m going to hit the sack, nighty night guys.” She groaned.
Without any further words, she then turned away from the two and walked away towards her bedroom.
Leaving Sunny and Alan standing there. Alan looked over to Sunny and quietly said, ” I-I’m gonna go to bed. I’ll have a maid bring you first aid kit.”
Alan then walked off in the opposite direction of Rose leaving only Sunny standing there.
Sunny hung her head down and quietly muttered under her breath, ” Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!” She then turned and punched the nearest wall as hard as she could causing her knuckles to bleed too. “Damn you, Rose, ” she muttered again.
(In Rose’s room)
“*ACHOO*” Rose sat in her bed with her back propped up against her pillows. She rubbed her nose after letting out a huge sneeze.
” Are you alright miss?” William timidly asked as he stood by her bed. Rose waved her hand dismissively and said, ” Oh, yes it’s just Sunny cursing me. Ah, before I forget, William brings over my computer and a glass of wine. White this time, kay?”
William nodded and went over to the kitchen area while Rose continued to talk. ” *Ugh* William, my ‘family’ is so annoying. The damn old man wants to lecture me about everything. But he is so pathetic. I mean he can sort of run a business. He’s good at making connections and friends and although it’s so old fashioned, he makes a lot of deals in arranged marriages which makes him a pretty penny.
But he’s such an old fool. I mean he likes to make verbal contracts without recording them. Just how naive can one person be to put so much trust in businessmen. Then he spends half of it all on partying. And when he needs more he embezzles money from work.
Spencer is like one of those cold arrogant CEOs in those romance novels with more sociopathic and sadistic tendencies. And I already told you how my mom is.
*Sigh* They way they deal with things, this family will collapse in no time. While I, however, will not be affected and be far away when this house does collapse. *Hah* I can’t wait to see the looks on their faces when I leave them in the cold to die.”
William gulped at Rose’s cold tone and brought over a large glass of wine and Rose’s dark red laptop. He then asked hesitantly, ” M-miss don’t you think that’s a bit cold? They are your family and they helped raise you.”
Rose took a large sip from the glass and licked her lips. She swirled the glass around as she responded, ” *Sigh* William it’s things like this that make me think you don’t listen to me. My parents are the primary reason, my brother and I turned out the way we did.
My father primarily raised Spencer with toxic masculinity, harsh tutors, isolation, screaming, and either his fist or a belt. He only has a couple of friends which he met in high school. Even they don’t know much about him all they know is he’s scary and overbearing but they obviously don’t mind this as they’re still friends with him.
My mom primarily raised me if that’s what one could call what she did. From the day I was born to the age of six my mom left me with nannies and maids to tend to me. While she went out to party and shop and socialize.
Even though it was so long ago I can faintly remember my mom walking out of the house dressed either fancily or like a stripper.
I can also just barely remember the ache in my chest and the lump in my throat whenever she left, ” She caressed her throat with her free hand, “I never thought I’d ever get any attention or love from her.”
“But, ” Rose paused and stopped swirling her glass. She had a spaced-out look and went on, ” There was this one maid who I think truly cared for me. Every time I cried she was there to comfort me. She hugged me and sung me lullabies. She would give me all kinds of treats and she even took me to the park and the aquarium. I think that was the point in my life when I finally experienced love.
But when I turned six my mother suddenly started trying to spend time with me. Take me shopping, to restaurants, to operas. Nothing I really liked but I smiled and pretended I did.
And every time we were done with whatever activity we had I would immediately rush to that maid’s arms. My mom noticed this and a few months later, that maid was nowhere to be found.
I asked my mom about her and she told me that the maid was never coming back. When she told me this I immediately pestered her with questions on why. Then she gave me the worst beating I ever had and cursed at me. But I was so in shock that I couldn’t hear a word.
This continued until I was thirteen. So whenever I hear the word family I just remember the beatings, my mom gave me and everything else that she-.”
Rose went quiet as she clenched her teeth and gripped her glass tight in her hand. “*RARGH*” *CRASH*
Rose recklessly hurled the glass to the floor shattering it into pieces and exclaimed angrily. William backed away in shock and stared at Rose as she huffed angrily.
Her chest pounding with rage Rose turned to William and hissed, “*HUFF HUFF* WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING!?GO GET A MOP AND A BROOM AND CLEAN THIS SHIT UP! OR SHOULD I HAVE YOU CLEAN IT UP WITH YOUR BARE FEET AND HANDS!”
William gasped and nodded frantically before scurrying out the door, glad that he made it out unscathed.
Rose sat on her bed, her breath still ragged and her hair starting to fall in front of her face. She impulsively grabbed a pillow and started to punch the pillow with a burning rage. She even clenched her teeth onto it and pulled the pillow as hard as she could.
*BZZT BZZT* Rose’s phone buzzed from her covers. She turned her attention to the glowing rectangle under her covers. She released the pillow from her teeth and stared at her phone for a while, before sighing loudly and finally picking it up.
She brushed the hair off of her sweaty forehead and looked at the phone. She had gotten a text message reading.
^ Security footage from the school has been sent to you, please check your computer^
Rose’s eyes widened a little and realized that she had neglected her laptop that sat on her bed. After giving herself a few more minutes to calm down. She quickly grabbed and opened the laptop and began checking her email and found the video link.
She clicked on the link and several slightly blurry screens of the school. She put her face closer to the computer screen and fast-forwarded to the time where Rose sabotaged her bag.
Since there were no security cameras by the classroom Rose had to look at any other locations nearby. Rose had gotten to school so early that if anybody else was there she’d surely see them.
After fast-forwarding a bit she noticed a large orange-haired figure by the bathroom and the library. Rose’s mind filled with thoughts and questions. How was Zoey there so early? How had they not bumped into each other, not even once?
Rose rewound the footage and played it over and over again. Hoping to find something and that she did. Though when she saw this her mind was only filled with more questions.
She reached for her phone. She was about to call a private investigator to look into this. But she quickly stopped herself and took a deep breath.
“Calm down, you shouldn’t jump right into something else when you have other issues to deal with.” She warned herself.
So instead she dialed another number and put the phone to her ear.
#?: Hello?#
#Rose: Yes this is Rose Chang. You know the one involved in a scandal?#
#?: Uh yes, Miss Chang. How may I be of assistance?#
#Rose: I would like to set up a press conference next Thursday. In front of the mayor’s office.#
#?: Uh, well, I-#
#Rose: Spread the word and tell the press to be there at 3 o’clock on the dot.#
#?: Well, I-#
#Rose: Have a nice night.# Beep-
Rose put the phone down and turned back to her computer. She leaned her chin into her palm and smiled at her screen. ” This gonna be interesting. *hahaha*” Rose cackled as the screen illuminated her face creepily.
*BZZT BZZT* Rose’s phone abruptly buzzed again. When she picked it up her smile became similar to the Cheshire Cats. “*Hah* My night just keeps getting better and better. My new little pawn and her soon to be spawn, are doing quite well. * Ehe hehehe HEHE A HAHAHA*” Rose’s cackling echoed throughout the room as she produced an evil aura.
