Chapter 140 - The Phone Case



"No . . ."

"I will use it since you don't like it. This thing is very expensive. It is way more expensive than your phone," Anna said angry that her sister was despising the gift.

"No, I will use it," Rose said snatching the phone cover from her sister with a frown. She did not like the fact that her sister was going to use the gift she got from Liam. She would have gladly let someone else use it if it was not given to her by Liam. It was hers from Liam and should remain that way.

"I thought you did not want to use it," Anna said snatching it back from Rose with a serious frown that looked very identical with Rose's frown.

"It is mine," Rose said pulling from her. "I thought you don't like Carl, why do you want to use the gift he got for me?"

"It won't be weird if I use after all we are distant cousins. And I did not say I don't like the phone cover, I said I don't like Carl. This thing is too beautiful. It suits you so well. I am sure it worth millions," Anna said eyeing the phone cover which was one of the most beautiful work of art she has come across in a while.

"You can't be sure," Rose said although she knew very well that it worth more it should worth.

"When did Carl get so rich to buy you a gift that worth so much? It has almost anything precious you can think of and it is just a phone case," She said shaking her head in disapproval. "I like expensive things but I don't think I am willing to spend so much on just a phone case."

"Carl's grandparents left the well-known Classic Jewelry store to him and his twin brother. They own it now although their father is the CEO now but getting something like this made will not be a hard task for him," Rose replied although she knew that Carl has no access to the jewelry store.

"I could ask him to make something similar but cheaper for me. Do you think he will do it?" Anna asked going back to Rose's bed and sat down.

"I don't think he will do it," Rose replied her sister sincerely. She knew Carl could not make it for Rose since he had no access to the jewelry store now.

"Does he keep grudges?" Anna asked with a slight sad pout.

"Yes, he does," Rose replied happily. She did not want Anna to ask Carl at all about it since he was clearly not the person who made it. "He will use it against you if you ever ask him for such a favor." She felt sorry towards Carl who she knew held not grudge against Anna over the rude remarks she have made towards him.

"It won't be favor. I will just ask him to make it and I will pay for it. Or will just visit one of the store's branches here and have them make something like this for me," Anna continued. She has fallen deeply in love with the phone cover and she also thought using something similar to that of Rose's phone cover will look cute.

Rose sighed and glared at Anna with a very serious expression. "I am trying to work here. Do you remember you asked me to help you with the dress you will wear for the ball? That is what I am trying to do now, okay?"

"I am sorry. What about giving me the phone cover? I want it as my graduation gift," Anna said standing up from the bed once again, she walked to Rose. She tried to take the phone cover from Rose but Rose was quick to move it away from her reach.

"I need rest Anna. I want to finish this up before we eat dinner," Rose said seriously. She folded her hands on her chest and watched her sister with a very displeased expression.

Seeing Rose was very serious, Anna decided to give up. She groaned in defeat and returned to the bed while glaring at Rose.

"Your eyes can't kill," Rose reminded her sister who seemed to be trying to her best to murder Rose with her eyes.

"I hate you but I love you more," Anna said as she gave up and picked her own smart phone.

"Whatever," Rose said as she continued designing.

"I want a lilac dress. I don't care about the style you decide to design but it should not be too long. It could be a gown or a skirt and crop top," Anna said as she looked at the pictures of the dresses she fell in love with which were all designed by her sister.

"I have designed a dark purple gown for you. I will just change the color to lilac. We will go for shopping during the weekend. I want to pick the right shoes for you," Rose said while her hands continued working on the sketch pad on her table.

"We could call them to bring them over for you to choose since you are not strong enough to go around," Anna suggested.

"No, I know the store we will visit because they have just what I think will look good on you," Rose told her sister who agreed with a nod.

Rose glanced at the phone cover and sighed before dropping her color pencil. She picked her phone and the phone cover hesitatingly. She looked at the two of them for a few seconds before putting her phone in the new case.

The leather of the case was of very high quality crocodile skin. It was a pale shade of pink with very tiny diamonds arranged to form three roses of varying sizes on the back of the case. The diamond stones were so small and careful arranged on the leather. There was a small chain made of a mixture of well-polished platinum and gold.

She rubbed the leather gently under her fingers as she could not seem to get enough of the wonderful smooth feeling they had on her fingers. She wondered what it will smell of as a part of her subconsciously noted that it will smell like Liam if he made it personally for her.

She almost squealed excitedly when she brought it close to her nose and inhaled. The smelt very much like Liam. He made it for her. She smiled like the high school girl who was experiencing her first love she was although she will never accept that she was in love, at least not yet.

Anna could not see the expression on her sister's face since Rose was facing the table which was close to the wall but she knew what Rose just did. She could not understand why her sister will bother sniffing on the gift her cousin gave her when they not flowers that should scent and that made her think.

After replaying everything that just happened on her mind over and over again, Anna finally came to conclusion. She sat up and looked at her sister who was really busy with her work. "You did not receive that from Carl, right?" she asked as she slowly got down from the bed.

"Uh?" was all Rose could ask when she heard her sister's sudden statement.

"I know Carl did not give it to you. You got it from someone else but you don't want to let me know. And that's why you refused to use it? I know you don't want me to know, hopefully for now, and I am going to respect that," Anna said sad that she did not get to know the story behind the phone case.

"I am sorry," Rose did not forget to apologize before facing the work on the table. "And thank you."

"I think it is my fault that you insist on keeping it a secret. I know I dislike all your friends and I don't bother hiding it. I am also sorry about being too judgmental about most of them. I promise to like my brother-in-law no matter who he is," Anna apologized and ended the short speech with a teasing tone.

"Thank you once again," Rose replied still engrossed in the work she had to complete before dinner. She was not aware that she had just agreed that it was given to her by her sister's brother-in-law, her husband.

"You are welcome. Thank you too."

Rose glanced at her sister and smiled slightly she sincerely hopes her sister remains this way and never changes like she almost did in the past. "Do you want to go with me to buy fabrics for your dress?"

"No, you can pick any of your choice. You seem to know about me more than I know myself." Anna said misunderstanding the message behind Rose's offer.

Rose did not care to explain as she continued the work she had to do.
