Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress novel Chapter 72

“And here comes the one that is always late among us." The playful looking man remarked as he got up from his seat and walked towards Rose who was still on the floor. He stretched his hand towards her to help her up.

Nicholas still had frowns on his face, his gaze was glued on Rose wondering why and what a girl was doing here.

“Are you okay?" The playful looking man asked after Rose managed to take his hand while using her other hand to rub her head which the door had hit.

“I think I'm fine. Thank you Mister." Rose slowly replied and got up to her feet. Just as she thought, she was still short just by standing next to the man.

“Nicholas, you came late today? What is the cause of your lateness today?" The second man asked as he glanced at their fourth friends who were still standing by the door with his gaze on Rose.

“I had something to take care of.” Nicholas replied and finally looked away from Rose and glanced at his friend.

" You're alway have something to do and keep us waiting for you." The second retorted back at him.

“I think you should take a seat, your forehead is already red." Ignoring both of his friends, the playful looking man said to Rose when he saw how red it already was. So he led her to a seat, not sure of what to do.

When the other heard him, they all turned to look at their direction including Alex and his gaze darkened upon seeing her red forehead. Because Rose had really fair skin, it made the wound pop out very well.

“What are we going to do about this?" The playful looking man asked, a bit of worry seen on his face as he pointed at the red wound.

“This is all your fault, Nicholas. Not only did come late but nearly killed a poor girl." He turned to look at Nicholas and accused him.

Nicholas nearly rolled his eyes at his remark. “You can't blame me like that, Christopher. I didn't know she was standing by the door when I was coming in." He defended him from Christopher's accusations as he closed the door behind him.

“I know you'd say. You cunning nerd guy. You should apologize to the girl.” Christopher demanded still blaming Nicholas for what happened.

Nicholas glanced at where Rose was sitting and saw that it was indeed a very big wound and felt a bit guilty. “I apologize for that." He curtly said.

“Oh, no-" Rose was about to say something but was cut off by the second man in the room.

“We should take her to a hospital to treat the wound, since Benjamin isn't here.” The second man suggested. Benjamin was also their friend, but he is currently out of the country.

“I agree with Edward too. And you should be the one to take her because you're the only who caused it." Christopher nodded his head in agreement with Edward.
