Christian's POV 《 4 years later 》 I glanced at myself through the mirror before putting on the blazer. "Daddy!!" I heard my four-year-old pebble squealing and I turned around and noticed her running towards my way. "Maria, carefu-" "How many times I'm telling you to stop calling me Maria.." she frowned, placing her hands on her hips and I held back my chuckle as her accent would always make her rant even more funnier. "My name is Haley." "But your name is Haley Maria Roberts, is it not?" I asked, tilting my head and she stuck her tongue out for no reason as she shook her head. "I don't like that name, daddy.." she stated and before I could reply anything, Chloe spoke out of nowhere. "Is it because that's our mommy's another name?" I heard my 10-year-old child saying and I took a sharp intake of a breath when all the memories I was trying to forget, hit me hard again. Deep down, I knew I shouldn't call Haley by her middle name as we all knew how many times I've lost the person,

Emma Davis I took out my phone and still I haven't gotten a notification that'd tell me he had texted me back. Eventhough it was so embarrassing to admit, even to myself, I was still hoping he'd reach me out again despite of the fact that he had literally ghosted me for more than a month."Em, have you talked with Bella lately?" Aunt Rachel asked, without taking her gaze off of her laptop."No, she's not a kiddo to check in on her." I stated, resisting the urge to roll my eyes."She's still a kiddo to me, Em." she said, throwing me a glance and I let out an inaudible sigh, dialing her number."Do you want me to call her?""How about you go to London and check in on her whether everything's fine?" My hands froze in mid-air when I heard what she said and I turned to look at her open-mouthed."Wh-What?""You heard me." She stated nonchalantly and she wasn't wrong either but I still wanted her to repeat to confirm what I heard was correct."You want me to go to London?""Yeah. But you don
Emma Davis WilsonIt's almost been a year since I've married Hayden and I'd say being in hell was far more better.Everyone did think that I was living my dream life. Little did they know that I sold my life to the king of crankiness without knowing the consequences.These past three-hundred and sixty days were the worst phase of my life and I didn't know how far I have to go bearing this.Nobody knew it was a contract marriage except Hayden and I.I let out a loud sigh as I realized that I was the only reason for this whole fucking situation; That I dug my own grave.Suddenly I heard the door open and I sighed again and made my way outside of the kitchen.I saw Hayden removing his shoes hastily and I swallowed the lump in my throat before speaking as we have shared merely a few words lately."Hey."He looked up at me for a nanosecond and nodded before heading towards his room."Hayden, wait, I've made us dinner." I informed and he stopped walking, showing his back to me."I already ha
Emma Davis"Bella, you're okay? You seem tired." I said with a frown on my face and she sighed softly shaking her head."I'm fine, Em.. I think I'm hungry. Oh and I should check on Chloe too..""Oh shush. You take rest, Bells. I'll bring breakfast for you and let me take care of Chloe too." I assured and she smiled faintly, holding both of my hands."Thankyou so much, Em. I love you.""I know. Now go, get some sleep." I said, almost pushing her towards the bed and she groaned underneath her breath but plopped down on the bed nevertheless.I slowly closed the door behind me and started to make my way towards the elevator but suddenly bumped into someone which made me curse underneath my breath as I knew who it was, by the familiar scent."Hey Hayden.""Oh Em.. I've been looking for you for the whole time." Hayden said and I furrowed my brows."Me? Why? What's the matter?""Uhh.. you know.." He trailed off, tucking his hands in his pockets. "I wanna to talk to you.""What are we doing n
Emma Davis Wilson I ate the sausage and mash alone, sitting on the kitchen island on my very first wedding anniversary when the door bell rang. I set my plate aside and quickly got down, wiping my mouth with the back of my hand before making my way to the door.But before I could reach the door, Hayden appeared, holding out his hand at me. "I'll get it."I nodded briefly and he moved to the door and swung open it.After a few moments, he shut the door, reappearing to my sight with a box of pizza in his right hand. Our eyes met for a split second before I turned around and walked towards the kitchen."Emma.."I turned back a bit fast than I was supposed to, and he cleared his throat, scratching his left brow."You've got time?""For what?" I asked cautiously."Uh.. to watch some movie and chill?"A chuckle escaped from my mouth involuntarily as I crossed my arms over my chest."What's the reason for the sudden change?""What do you mean?" He asked with a frown on his face."When I sug
Emma Davis The couple of months went in a blur and when I thought my life couldn't get any worse, it proved me wrong again.I hadn't talked to Hayden after I got home that day because I realized that we were better off this way. I still had his unread text messages and unheard voicemails on my phone but as the time went, neither of us seemed to care.But again, now, I was going back to London in a private jet which was owned by Mr.Roberts a.k.a the father of the kid who grows in Bella's belly.Yes. Today, well technically yesterday, I found out Bella was five months pregnant and at the same time, she got to find out that Bella wasn't the person she used to know. Aunt Rachel accidentally or purposefully spilled the hugest secret today which was, Bella's been adopted.And I, who knew this for a long time, wouldn't get mad at Bella for being mad at me as I kind of broke her trust in some sort of way.I looked over at the adjacent seat area where Hayden and Christian has been sitting and
Emma Davis Wilson♡A loud noise of a ringtone ruined my peaceful sleep and as usual, without opening my eyes, I looked out for the phone to press the snooze button but couldn't be able to find it.I cursed underneath my breath and rubbed my eyes, slowly opening them and I looked around and noticed I drifted off last night on the couch.Then when I glanced at the coffee table, rubbing my eyes, I realized that it wasn't an alarm notification and it was actually ringing because someone was calling me. And when my brain started to function more properly, I found out that phone wasn't even mine.All of a sudden my heart stopped beating for a second and it twisted in a painful way that I couldn't name of, when my eyes landed on the Caller ID that appeared as 'Kiera.'After contemplating with myself, I grabbed the phone and the time showed that it's only been half past six.Why on earth is she calling out of nowhere and at an odd time?I was about to answer it but someone behind me quickly s
