Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Rose was taking a stroll on the lawn with a hand on her baby bump as Finn wrapped his hand around her shoulder and another hand, held on to her right hand.

They were taking a very slow walk under the sunset's warm rays, talking and discussing the baby names. While Rose wanted names from their names just like how the Fourie named their babies, Finn wanted something different and special.

They were having the little nonserious argument when they heard the shrill voices from the mansion entrance gate, "What's going on?" Finn asked, seeing the security guard running towards them.

"Young master Stanley, a couple is at the gate with media reporters saying they are…" He glanced at Rose before continuing, "Young madam's parents."

Finn's arm tightened around Rose and turned to her. He won't stop if she wants to meet her parents. Now they are going to be parents too so he didn't want to take away her wish if in case she was missing her mother.

However, Rose faintly smiled at Finn before her face turned serious, "How dare those media companies to make a fuss in front of Stanley mansion? Report them."

Finn's lips arced while the security man smiled as he bowed her in respect. In the beginning, everyone doubted if Rose could be a good matriarch of the Stanley family seeing her blush awkwardly for everything but as time went by, she watched and learned well and holds her strong and behaves like a member of the Stanley family who holds power.

The security guard called the cops and everyone was fined for creating a scene and trespassing at the private property.

At the Stanley mansion, all had dinner and were sitting in the living hall chitchatting when a ring on Harold's mobile distracted everyone. "Aria," Harold said without feeling good about the time of the call. He wasn't against Aria calling him anytime but he knew she won't call late hours for chitchat.

Shortly after his words, Finn's mobile rang and both men nodded at others to excuse and answered the calls.

[Grandfather, Rose's parents are creating a mess at Com networks. It is spreading over social media. Will you handle it or shall I take control?]

[President Stanley, Young Madam's parents are at the Com news studio and the netizens are against young madam calling her unfilial.]

Harold and Finn purposefully didn't show any reaction on their face to avoid Rose getting emotionally imbalanced.

Harold suddenly laughed as he stood up to go aside and Finn hummed, behaving like it's a work call. But they had underestimated Rose. She clearly could guess there is something up to seeing them walk out.

Once they went to different ends of the hall, Rose noticed they were avoiding looking towards the hall. She took her mobile, caressing her belly. As soon as she switched on the internet, her mobile was flooded with numerous pings without letting her use the mobile.

Her mobile hangup for a pretty long time so she waited patiently. By now she is sure something is up and the first one to cross her mind was her parents.

She had sent her parents in the evening because they would make sure to create drama to life in the Stanley mansion. She knew her husband and others would bring them home because of her but she didn't want to disturb the Stanley family disposition.

Once her mobile stabilized, she opened the social media to see numerous tags to her name.

[You left your parents for a wealthy husband, will you leave him for another rich man? @RoseFinnStanley]

[Where is the filial daughter? @RoseFinnStanley. How dare you trick Finn with your nasty character?]

[Why did the Stanley family get rubbish like you? @RoseFinnStanley]

[I always doubted how a secretary could climb up, no doubt you used Aria Cooper and Finn Stanley's friendship and climbed on his bed. @RoseFinnStanley @FinnStanley @AriaCooperMorgan]

Rose was about to continue to next, her mobile was taken away by Finn and he changed the topic to divert her attention knowing she got numerous tags too, "It's late, let's go to bed." He tried his best to sound calm.

Harold nodded at Finn before going to study. 

Rose asked as she stood up carefully, "Finn, let me check it." 

Finn knew how stubborn Rose is but he still tried, "Rose, I will handle this. Calm down and rest."

Zeke, Father and Mother Stanley looked at each other without understanding what was going on. "Finn…" Zeke tried.

Finn just glanced at him before focusing on Rose, "Grandfather, I will let know later, please." He was about to convince Rose but the latter spoke first.

"Do you want me to overthink and stress out or know what is going on?" Rose won on her argument before it even started.

Finn made her sit as he cued a maid to turn on the television. He changed channels but his eyes were on Rose, afraid she couldn't take it.

"Nobody should have a daughter like ours. We had celebrated her arrival in our life that we didn't bother having a son. We spent our blood and sweat for her education, her life... sigh... what did we get? We poured everything on her but she changed her name to marry a rich man. I just asked for little support to treat my wife's cancer but she sent us to the police station… She is becoming a mother, doesn't she know her child will learn from her? How would she feel if her child turns out wretched as hers?..."

All were serious while Rose laughed, "They won't learn it. How dare the eye on my baby?" She stood up and announced, "I want to meet them now."

Finn objected immediately, "Nope, Rose don't be impulsive, it isn't safe for you or the baby."

Incensed, Rose wasn't ready to listen to him, "You think I will sit and listen to their bluff and even call my baby wretched?"

Finn corrected through his teeth, "Our baby."

Rose saw him reluctant to take her out, "Fine, I will drive myself." She shrugged his hands and went towards the door enraging Finn.

Finn always let her stubbornness win because they were negligible but this wasn't.
