"Hey bitch, watch where your steps are!" A female voice shouted at Emma who was laying on the floor due to the sudden fall she had.
Emma looked at the lady who was standing in front of the door and recognized that she was the same person that walked past her and Emily at the office.
Emma froze in anger as she gave Ethan a disgusting look.
"Emma, this is Anne." Ethan moved towards the door as he pulled Anne into the room and kissed her romantically. He closed the door while Emma ran off to her room, tears flowing freely down her cheeks.
Emma was still recovering from the shock of seeing Ethan with the lady in the red dress who she now knows to be Anne by name, now she was also in her husband's house and in his room with him. She tried her best to get the thoughts off her mind but it was not working, her face still soaked in tears. She finally slept off on her bed.
Early in the morning, Emma prepared and left for work. The thoughts of yesterday night was still on her mind. At the office Emma shares what happened to her the night before to her friend and colleague Emily.
"Emma, I am so sorry for you. Am truly sorry. Just stay strong, who knows things can turn out for the better in the future." Emily said as she comforted Emma.
"It's fine Emily, I have to deal with it. It's my life and I have no other option than to stay strong." Emma answered back and continued her work.
Emma attended to more people who came in for their respective businesses. "Emily, I've got to use the restroom immediately." Emma stood up from her seat as she moved to the restroom where she wanted to ease herself.
She wasn't bothered much again about Ethan or Anne. She has decided to go through the thick and thin of whatever her decisions will bring to her.
In the restroom, Emma walked into the toilet and began to do her business, her back facing the door.
The door opened and someone came in and grabbed Emma by the hair. "You bitch!"
Emma struggled to let go and turned around to see that her attacker was Anne.
Emma charged at Anne in fury. This was an opportunity she was waiting for since the day she saw Anne in Ethan's office. Emma pulled Anne by the top of her shirt.
"You whore, you have the guts to hit me?" Emma shouted in anger as she pushed Anne to the wall.
Anne pushed back and grabbed Emma by the hair again. This time she pulled hard on Emma's hair. Emma gave out a moan in anguish.
Emma caught her grip and pulled Anne on her hair in retaliation. Emma grabbed Anne closer and bit her deeply on the shoulder. Little drop of blood was trickling from the spot while Anne released Emma as a result of the bite.
"You witch, you bite me? I will show you who is the queen around here." Anne charged towards Emma again, this time she collided with Emma pushing her to the glass mirror on the wall. The shattering of the glass resounded round the restroom while Emma's body was pierced with broken glasses.
Emma fell down unconscious, while people who heard the noise gathered inside the restroom. They carried Emma out of the scene as blood trickled from the pierces the glass gave her.
"What happened here? Why are blood stains on your shoulders?" Ethan asked.
Anne turned around in shock as she didn't expect Ethan to be there. "Emma picked a fight with me and tried to stab me with the broken glass." Anne lied. She looked at Ethan who already believed what she said immediately.
" Where is that low life bitch called Emma?" Ethan asked Anne.
"She was carried off by the cleaners, she injured herself when she wanted to attack me." Anne feigned piety as she said her last words.
"I will teach that brat a lesson she will not forget in her whole life." Ethan angrily moved out of the restroom while Anne followed him.
"I don't know why you had to bring that class girl into this place, now look at what she has done to me." Anne said while she touched the area where Emma bit her. She moaned in pain as she touched the bites which brought Ethan's attention to her once again.
"She also did this to you?" Ethan asked in fury as he saw the mark of the bite on Anne's shoulder. "I will definitely teach her a lesson she won't forget in her entire life."
"Ooh, please deal with her mercilessly. Such a low life gold digging bitch!" Anne was still caressing the bite wounds as if it was a major thing.
Back in the first aid room located at the far back of the E&M Corporation, the cleaner was cleaning off the glass pieces that were stuck in her body.
"What in the hell did you do Emma?" Ethan asked Emma, anger written all over him. " Why did you attack her? You low life bitch?" This time Ethan walked towards Emma and pressed her back sharply against the chair she was sitting on.
"I am asking you! Now answer me! WHY DID YOU ATTACK ANNE?" Ethan's angry voice echoed round the room.
Emma cried out in pain as the glass pieces pierced farther into her skin. "She… was the one that attacked me" Emma answered Ethan back while trying to get loose from Ethan's grip.
"You're lying Emma." Ethan barked at her. "Now tell me the truth or else!" Ethan landed a hard slap on Emma's face.
"Tell me the truth now Emma. What did you do to Anne?" Ethan slapped her again on the face.
"I didn't do anything to Anne!" Emma said pleadingly.
"That's not true!" Anne bursts into the room speeding towards Emma in anger.
"I can't buy such an idea from you?" Emma said in a coarse voice to Mrs. Detroit."My idea isn't that bad if you think it through." Mrs. Detroit said while standing beside the white hospital bed. "There is nothing to think about here, your idea is just as unbelievable like you're. How do you want me to marry a man I have never met in my life, don't even know how he behaves just because of money?" This time Emma spoke with a heavy voice. " Well my idea isn't a bad one at all if you look at it with an open mind you know!, Besides you should consider my idea because your brother lying here on this hospital bed has no means of survival if you don't source for money to treat him, and you know your father is no more alive to foot the bills! " Mrs. Detroit said to Emma is a voice that screamed wickedness."You are unbelievable, I can find other means to raise money for to treat my brother, but as for your idea of me marrying someone for money, it's a big NO!" Emma said this as she began to
The door swung open and Mrs. Detroit came inside Emma's room for the third time in the day. "Don't do anything stupid on your wedding day or else!" She turned around and left.Two days later."Emma! Emma!! Emma!!! Come along, your husband is waiting for you outside. Today is your wedding day." Mrs. Detroit walked hastily into Emma's room. Emma looked up at her stepmother who was standing beside the door. "I'm ready." Emma said as she stood up from the chair she was sitting on." Alright, let's go." Mrs Detroit held Emma's hand as they walked out of the room. In front of their house, a black car was waiting for them. Emma walked into the car but was surprised to find that Ethan wasn't there. It was his driver that was here to pick her. They zoomed off to the church. In less than 15 minutes, they were in front of the church and Emma stepped out of the car. She walked towards the aisle where Ethan was waiting for her. On the altar, the priest was about to commence the marriage rites wh
A loud knock came on her door and Emma jumped out of her bed as she went to see who was knocking on her door. As she opened the door, she was surprised to see the maid standing there gasping for air. It was obvious she was running and had lost energy. "What is the problem?Why are you running as if someone is chasing you?" Emma asked the maid. "The boss sent me to fetch you immediately!" the maid answered Emma. "You mean Ethan sent you to fetch me?" Emma asked suspiciously. "Yes, and he said you should come with me immediately!" the maid answered back."Fine, let's go." Emma followed the maid as they left to answer Ethan. Emma entered the large sitting room to meet Ethan who was fuming in anger. He looked at Emma with an eye that meant millions of things at the same time."What did you do?" Ethan asked Emma sharply."What did I do?" Emma asked simultaneously."Why did you go out to search for a job? Why did you disobey my orders?" Ethan's voice was filled with anger as he looked at
Emma's mouth was wide open in total shock, in front of her was her boss sitting on his chair kissing and caressing a lady in a red dress.Her eyes rolled in anger as she also realized that her boss who was kissing and caressing the lady in red dress was also her husband Ethan. "Ethan!" Emma mouthed for the first time since her marriage, she had never called her husband by his name. Emma angrily jammed the door as she left the office in anger while forgetting that her boss called her. "Why is your face green with anger?" Emily asked Emma. "Did the boss do anything to you?" Emily asked Emma in successions.Emma was fuming in anger, she just wanted to bash her so-called husband with a weapon on his head. She never liked him but she couldn't stand seeing him with another woman instead."Emily… " Emma broke down and began to sob. "The boss is my husband!" "Your husband? How possible is that." Emily asked Emma. "If he is your husband, then why are you sobbing? Is it a bad thing for your
