Jeremy had been in such a bad mood after the conversation with his mother, he would just go somewhere, and order some wine, thinking about the Roberts family.

And, the only place that popped up in his mind was Imperial Restaurant, especially after hearing it was owned by the Roberts family. He would dare Old Master Hart, he would be with a Roberts, and see what his grandfather would do.

As the door clinked open, revealing his presence, all the women present turned to look at him, his aura gushing all over them. He was in the mood for joke, so he let them off with a shrug of his shoulders before he walked over to his seat, his eyes squinted gently when he saw a figure in the other end of the restaurant.

He didn't wanted to, but his legs made way to their table, what was he going to do there anyways? he didn't care, all he justed wanted was to see what was happening between the two couple, or so, he assumed.

He widened his eyes when he saw it was Emma. She was here? hanging out with a g

    The whole room went still, and the only thing audible was the slowly anticipated breathing of Emma and the dangerous stare on Jeremy's face.She stepped back a little after regaining her posture, she shook her head a little, failing to accept the truth.Did she hear it right? He wanted to continue with the damn game even when he knew the consequences.Was he absurd?She shook her head a little, her fingers shaking violently under her grip. "Are you out of your mind?"He leaned on the chair, his eyes twinkling dangerously, but at the same time, it brightened a little bit, the freckles booming out."The way to living life is not all about what they think." He was calm, and his calmness brought anger to her heart.She grasped the table in order not to fall, her heart thumping quite dangerously. "Do you know what you are saying? Huh?" Her voice darkened, and her blood boiled in fury.He bared his teeth, anger overcoming in his veins. "You are mine, Miss. Emma. You agreed to this whole gam

    She froze in the spot, her feet stuck to the ground. She couldn't even turn back to look at him, yet, her eyes fluttered under his intense gaze and when he finally walked towards her.

A smile that made her want to smile too.And, when he finally offered his hands towards her, she still stood, ill struck at her own dumbness."Lady." He spoke rather calmly, his hands crossed over his chest, and his hands grasping his cell phone. "Do you work as a maid here?" He was polite."Huh?" Emma blinked a bit, staring at the alluring man in her presence. His soft gaze lingered heavily on her, and his lips curled up, watching her intently.She finally shook a bit, cackling a nervous laugh. "N

    "Jason Hart! how dare you not tell your mother that you were back from abroad?"Emma blinked dumbfounded, startled as she was, the words slowly registered in her brain, and she thought. Hart, Hart, he was a Hart!Her eyes gradually bulged close before she stared at him, he raised a brow at her, his eyes twinkling with a lot of words. 'That's who I am,'She paled in complete shock."Jeremy." The said woman walked over to them, adjusting her gown.They both stared up, and Jeremy's lips quirked up a bit. "I am so sorry, Mother. I have been so busy, and I only arrived today." Violet, his mother managed a hiss, before her firm hands moved over to his shoulders to smack him, not hard, but gentle. "Still, your mother should be the first to be informed about your arrival."Emma studied Violet from the rearview, her dull eyes shined rather brightly than Jason's, and her lips parted slightly apart whenever she spoke, her posture was firm, and the way, she spoke calmly, she was definitely like

    Still in shivers, Emma walked into her game company, ignoring the stares of others. It was really hard being a female CEO at the same time to a game company that people calls trash,"You can't do it." They said."A game company? What the heck?""It's going to be a waste of time.""You are a woman, you should be doing..." They all said, and the worst part of it all, she had almost listened to their devilish words, she had almost being tricked into hell, Claire had been the worst enemy of it all, trying to always poke her in the chin, trying to outsmart her, trying to make her own game company feel like a failure."Miss. CEO!" Her young assistant had said as soon as Emma walked in, grabbing her bag politely, "You have a visitor, she's has been waiting for some time now,""She?" Emma continued walking up to the elevator, her head tilting over to her young assistant.The assistant bowed slightly, still clutching Emma's hand. "Yes. She had requested to see you immediately,""Where is she?

    For the rest of the week, it went on, with Ethan accompanying his twin sister about, making sure she was okay from the claws of men. 'Men' He described, were always dangerous people who took advantage of the opposite gender. Being stuck in his arms is no easy piece of cake, as he always nudged his arms around her, protecting her, saying, he was taking responsibility because she was his 'sister', in which she actually hated. "You don't have to do this." She muttered to his ears, her eyes fixated to the screen. "It's embarrassing." Why in the heck was her own twin brother so close to her face? He inched forward, before he retreated slowly. He just shrugged his shoulders, before his hands made for the popcorn, before a tiny bit of corn made way for his mouth, he licked up lips, rubbing away the butter that lingered in his lower lip. Emma watched him, with a slight perk of the lips. "I don't like public movies." He said, adjusting in his seat, before he gazed around the heavily laid c

    The figure stepped forward, his voice peering into her face, he leaned in closer, enough to her face, "Robert.""Hart." She muttered under her breath, feeling feverish, "You look good...err..?" "Jason. Maybe, you forgot." He chuckled, not at her, but to himself, "You look well, Emma." He wanted to grab her hand, but another hand swiped his away, and slapped his hands.Ethan managed a wicked smile, pulling his sister aside. "That's enough." He seized Jason up with his incredible long lashes, and turned towards his sister. "Do you know this guy?" His face squished up in disgust.Emma could almost sink between the two gazes of the men, Ugh, why did her brother just has to be anywhere but here?"I am Jason Hart, nice to meet you." Jason offered his hands politely, and luckily, what Emma referred to as a miracle, her brother shook his hand back, quite roughly."Hart? Eh?" Ethan raised an obnoxious brow, his hands crinkling together in their touch. He only chuckled, knowing fully well, the

    Emma dripped from the rain, her body shaking agreessively before she let out a whooping cough, she might catch a cold, or even worse a fever. The amount of rain trickled down her hair and down unto her jawline, her heart squeezing in pain."Emma." The voice switched to fury immediately. "I said, get in." His eyes trailed across her body, "You are getting wet, just get in."And, she didn't move, her body fixated to the floor, as she gnashed her teeth, smoke emitting her nostrils, the rain didn't seem to reduce, as it only increased, the rain pouring unto her frail body, her body trembling out of cold,She couldn't move, she tried to say something, but her lips just couldn't, she tried to walk away from the rain, but she just couldn't.

    Ethan gazed outside the window, studying the rain that drizzled slowly along the window and down unto the floor.

"Is everything okay?" He asked, and Ethan turned to look at him with a quizzical expression.H

She didn’t know why, but it didn’t feel safe for a fifteen year old in a huge mansion all by herself without any adult supervision.“The housekeeper and the butler are here to keep me company.” Her sister appeared from the kitchen with two mugs of coffee, handing her one, her sister

The restaurant was almost closing for the day, the place was empty except for some people who stayed behind to catch the latest gossip.Where was Avery?

    Jeremy stretched his hand forward, inhaling the sweet and damp smell of the wind in his nostrils. The night wind always fascinates him, he didn't even know what he liked seeing there: Was it the stars that twinkled? Or the moon that lit his face when he thought about his life, but nevertheless, the night was the only thing he looked forward to all the days of his life.His hands trimmed towards the cup of coffee, he didn't know why, but caffeine made his heart jumble away, especially in the dead of the night.It's funny how you could think of someone, wish they were there, and in reality, they were there, right in front of you."Jeremy!" Her voice caught him out of his reality, her lips were pursed in anger, those pretty shoulders almost jabbing towards him, "You haven't said a thing!"Was he supposed to?

    Emma dreamed about last night, it was so good she wanted to relive it again and again and again, when he was asleep, she stared at him, at his lush brows that seemed to stretch out when he was asleep, to his lips that seemed swollen.This morning, she still wanted to relive it, but her brother- who often was very annoying just had to knock on their door this morning and demand breakfast.The moment she opened her door, she almost controlled herself from plucking her hand into his face and giving him a punch; he was going to destroy her morning with Jeremy."Hey. Sis." The moment he said that while grinning, she let the anger subside and pulled him into a hug, he smelled safe, just like when they were kids, whenever they got into a huge fight or were arguing about something, he would just stop and hug her.He always smelt safe."Come on in." She nearly controlled an eye roll, as she led him into the room, his hair wasn't scattered around today, thank goodness, his dark green eyes seeme

    It's hard how you can balance being a female CEO without people having to look at you weirdly amongst themselves and whisper.

He hated this part of the job, well, he hated being stuck as a billionaire with no future except with the one of making money.He ruffled his hands on his laptop harder, the keys almost bobbing away, at least that was a great way to make sure he was okay.A head peeked from his door, he recognized the face."What do you want, Mary?" Mary was the name of his assistant he just hired a month ago, fresh out of college, she was efficient in her work, but still. She was always messing his appointments up."You have a meeting with the Denver enterprise today sir. Like right now."

    When Emma was in the car with Jeremy on their ride home. She received a text from Avery.At first, she thought it was a normal text from her mother reminding her to wear make-up, or brush her hair or it was just one of those useless advertising ads piling up in her email, but it was Avery.The text was short, yet carried with so much importance.Avery: Hey. Can you come to burger dine if you aren't busy, Jayci would love to meet you.She swallowed the lump that formed in her throat, before gazing out of the window, the building stood in front of her elegantly, 'burgers and dine,' written well in a cold blue font.Something in her heart cracked. Burgers and dine was just near them, how in the hell had Aubrey known she was here?Avery was inside there, she couldn't possibly have seen her car outside, or could she be tracking her?She swallowed involuntarily.
