Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Their entire relationship was a fabrication, a plot devised by others to ensnare Roscoe.

Doreen had once confided her concerns to Jarrod, who had cryptically promised that things would improve.

She was skeptical until Roscoe’s father approached her with a proposition that she could marry Roscoe if she followed his guidelines in dealing with Roscoe.

As Roscoe regained consciousness, vulnerable with some memory loss, Doreen played the part of the caring fiancée.

She concocted elaborate stories of their supposed past love, stories he accepted as truth due to his amnesia.

Yet, Roscoe always seemed detached toward Doreen.

His demeanor around her was often cold.

Despite this, Doreen persisted, believing that his coldness was a small price to pay for being with him.

After all, she considered him hers.

Now, Doreen resumed her manipulations, weaving more tales.

“Roscoe, why are you so harsh with me? You used to speak so kindly and loved me dearly.

How could you be so cruel now?” she pleaded.

Roscoe only scoffed quietly to himself.

Whether before or after his amnesia, he knew he couldn’t Love someone so adept at deceit.

He had attempted to fulfill the roles of boyfriend and fiancé, but it was futile.

He didn’t just dislike Doreen.

He was repelled by her pretense and how she belittled others, treating service staff terribly.

Roscoe found all of it repugnant.

His doubts deepened.

“Doreen, you keep claiming I love you, but I don’t feel that way.

I can’t see myself ever loving someone like you,” Roscoe confessed, determined to speak the truth.

Compatibility was clearly lacking.

“I’ll discuss this with my family.

I hope you’ll do the same.

We’re simply not right for each other,” Roscoe stated decisively.

Doreen expected comfort, but instead, Roscoe delivered a devastating blow.

Roscoe turned to leave after speaking.

Stepping forward, Doreen yelled, “Roscoe, let me tell you something! Miguel will kill you if we don’t marry!”

Unmoved, Roscoe continued walking away.

“Roscoe!” she cried out, her anger boiling over as she watched him walk away.

In a fit of rage, she hurled her purse at him, striking his back.

Roscoe momentarily paused when hit but then resumed his departure without looking back.

Doreen, left alone, stamped her feet in frustration.

After calming herself, she retrieved her bag, pulled out her phone, and dialed Miguel.

“Miguel… Roscoe is being unfair… He’s talking about calling off the wedding…” Doreen sobbed into the phone.

Miguel spent a long time trying to soothe her.

Eventually, Doreen’s tears subsided.

“Okay, Miguel, I was just upset for a moment.

Please do not be too hard on Roscoe.

We’re still getting married, after all.

”

Miguel reassured her warmly, “You’re so understanding.

Don’t worry.

The wedding date is set.

You will be my daughter-in-law, and that’s final.

”

Miguel’s indulgence in Doreen was not solely due to his agreement with Jarrod.

He was more interested in the strategic benefits of uniting the Schultz and Watts families.

This alliance was too important to risk any disruptions.

Meanwhile, Roscoe’s phone buzzed as he settled into his car.

The caller ID made him scowl, and he quickly turned off the device.

As he rounded the corner, he noticed Nicole standing by the corner, holding a bag and apparently waiting for a ride.

Roscoe initially planned to drive straight past.

As an engaged man, he knew it was prudent not to engage with other women until he had resolved his current predicament with Doreen.
