“Joshua? Joshua,” whisper Emily’s voice. “Emily?” groaned Joshua. “Wake up. You’re going to be late for work.” “What?” “You’re going to be late, so get up and take a shower. I got your breakfast ready.” “Emily?” asked Joshua, shaking his head. “What is it?” “Emily… You’re-You’re still here.” “Yes. Did you need something?” Joshua’s breathing quickened and he grabbed her tiny waist and pulled her to him. He held her against his body and kissed her. “Mmmph, Joshua,” groaned Emily. “Emily, how I miss you.” “Oh, I miss you too,” said Emily. Joshua eagerly kissed her lips. Beep. Beep. Beep. Joshua’s alarm clock went off. Joshua jerk himself awake. He woke up all sweaty. He lifted the bedsheet and found himself hard. “Crap,” he groaned. Beep. Beep. Beep. His alarm clock still going off. Joshua leaned over and turned off the alarm. He groaned as he woke up from his dreams. Sighing he got up and went to take a shower. As he was showering he chuckled as he was going insane. D

FLASHBACK JUNIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL (Third year of high school) “Joshua, did you hear that we got a new student?” asked Victor. Victor is Joshua’s best friend. “Oh, do we?” questioned Joshua. “Yes, I heard that she’s pretty smart, so she’s in a few class with us.” “Oh. That’s cool.” “I heard she’s cute too.” “Hmm.” “What? As handsome as you are, shouldn’t you be surrounding yourself with girls.” “Pfft.” “What? You don’t seem to be interested in any girl at all. Why is that?” “I know,” said Dan. Dan was Joshua’s second best friend. “Who?” asked Victor. Joshua stared at Dan. “He’s not into girls, but guys,” laughed Dan. Joshua said in a nonchantantly voice, “No. I’m into girls.” “Then who?” asked Victor. “Not saying, Not telling. Not caring.” “Oh, then maybe you’re interested in girls from other school?” “Maybe?” “Who?” Joshua stared at Victor and didn’t say anything. “Fine,” pouted Victor. “But what about our school?” asked Dan. “What about our school?” asked

JOSHUA’S POV When they were in high school, Emily and him would often get seated together. For that Joshua didn’t mind. He like being close to her. Whenever she dropped her pens or pencils he would lean over and pick it up to her. Every time he hand it to her he would get to glance at her. Even if she just softly smile at him, he was happy. For she at least noticed him. Everytime he mustered up the courage to talk to her, she was busy talking to other people. She was always accompanied by other boys or always other girls. Joshua couldn’t talk to her even if he wanted to. When there are times when Emily is alone, he couldn’t talk to her as he was always dragged by his friends to go somewhere or do something.

Knock. Knock. “Who is it?” asked Joshua. “It’s me, Butler Shawn,” answered Shawn. “Come in,” said Joshua, picking off the glasses on their wedding picture frame. “Young master MacClare,” said Butler Shawn. “What is it?” asked Joshua. “I found out some details about your ex-wife, Emily.” “What did you find?” “I found out that Emily have indeed been working the entire time she’s been married to you.” “How?” asked Joshua, looking at Butler Shawn. He thought it was odd as Emily have always been home and stayed home. She never gone anywhere but staying home most of the time. Besides those times when she leaves to take money or spending times with those other men. “Your ex-wife, umm…” “What is it?” Joshua was fearing what butler shawn was going to say. “Please, say that she is anything else but a leecher,” he thought. “She’s a professional trader.” “What?” “She’s a day trader.” “I know what day trader is.” “Oh. Well, Emily trader nearly everyday when she’s not busy with the

“Joshua are you almost ready?” asked his mother. “Yes, mother.” “How I miss your voice Emily,” whispered Joshua. “Who are you talking to?” asked his mother. “No one,” said Joshua, putting on his tie. “Are you talking to youself again?” “No.” “You sure?” asked Vicky, folding her arms together. “What is it mother?” “Nothing, I was just checking to see what’s taking you so long.” “Nothing is wrong. I was just exhausted from last night’s work. I was also having trouble waking up this morning.” “Oh, do you want me to call up a doctor.” “No.” “I’m sure if Emily is here, she would be best to help you with that.” Joshua frowned and said, “Yes, she would. But she’s not here now. So, I will do the best I can without her.” “You miss her don’t you?” Joshua didn’t say anything as he fixed his tie to correlate with his shirt. “I heard you calling out her name this morning again.” Joshua paused and turned his head to his mother. “Did I?” “Yes. Yes, you did son.” “Well, I was drea

“Emily!” exclaimed Vicky. Emily saw Vicky running up to her window. Vicky was tapping on the window loudly. Emily rolled down the window and asked, “Yes?” “Please, give him another chance.” “Who?” frowned Emily. “Joshua.” Emily frowned deepended and she said, “No.” “Please.” “No.” “Then, do it for me.” Emily scoffed. “Why would I do anything for you? You hated me. You made sure to tell me that every day. Not only that you showed it in your personality of yours every single day while I was married to him. Expressing how much you depise a poor woman like me, marrying to your son.” Vicky’s face paled immediately. She tightened her fists into her purse and thought, “Right now, I mustn’t let my emotions gets the best of me. I have to do this for my son. For Joshua. He’s misrable. I have to help fix what’s left of them. I must do something to bring them together. I just can’t let her walk away like this. It’s all because of a misunderstanding.

"What about my feelings." "I want to know how you feel about me." "You wouldn't care about my feelings." Emily frowned at him. "What do you mean?" "I meant do you really care about my feelings?" "Yes. Yes, of course I would," said Emily. "You know I do." Defending herself from Joshua's accusation. "Promise?" "Promise."

A FEW DAYS PASS “Young Master MacClaire,” said Butler Shawn. “What is it?” I found out that the madam is going on a camping trip. “Camping trip?” “Yes.” “Where?” “Lake Everest.” Joshua frowned. That’s the same mountain that Emily got lost at. He sighs and said, “Cancel all my meeting for this weekend.” “What?” “You heard me.” “Very well,” said Butler Shawn, bowing down to him. “Pack all my stuff. I need to get there before she does.” “Ah? Why is that?” “So she doesn’t know that I’m following her.” “But-But, aren’t you sir?” “I know I am, but this is the best I could do to be close to her.” “Yes.” “I know what you’re thinking. I know that stalking isn’t a good thing, but I just want to make sure she’s safe and doesn’t get herself into trouble.” “Alright.” “Knowing her she’s probably going to get lost. She’s bound to get herself somewhere else but the campsite, since she got no sense of direction.” “Alright, young master. But I also got something to tell you as well

“Emily!” exclaimed Daniel. He hugged his granddaughter with open arms. “Oh, thank god you’re safe.”“Yes. I’m alright,” said Emily, with saddened eyes.“What’s wrong?” asked Daniel, noticing her teary expression. He looked at Joshua. Joshua sighs as Emily was about to tell him what she almost did.“Grandfather, I almost- I almost made a mistake last night.”“That is-”Daniel, doing what he usually does, held up his hands and said, “Stop!

There was a loud knock on the door and Joshua woke to the sound.“Who’s that?” asked Emily. She pulled the blanket over her naked body.“I don’t know,” said Joshua. He got up and said, “Stay here.” He went to peek out the window. It was her uncles and her grandfather.Emily was looking around for her clothes, but they were scattered all over the floors and she was picking them up one piece at a time to put them on.“Your family is here,” said Joshua, kissing her on the forehead.“What?

Dear Husband, I'm the Fortune Heiress Chapter 96: Deep End of the Water
Emily stepped into the water. She felt her baby kicking as her feet touched the cold water. She started to tremble in the freezing water. Last year during this time Joshua saved her from drowning. How she wished he didn’t. Maybe if he didn’t, she wouldn’t have hurt so much as she is today. Her legs edge her into the deeper end of the water. Joshua, seeing Emily going into the water, panicked. She can’t swim. “Oh, what if she is trying to commit suicide. Is she trying to take herself out by drowning?” he questioned. His heart races as he thought of seeing her lifeless body floating in the water. Fear gripped his heart. He ran to her with every ounce of breath he had. Taking off as fast as he could like a shooting star. He was screaming out her name, “EMILY!”Emily froze as she thought she heard Joshua’s voice.

On the message says, “I am leaving. Don’t look for me. Don’t search for me. I will be with my baby now. Love Emily. Joshua shook his head in confusion. This morning, they were just talking. She didn’t say anything about going anywhere. And if she did, she couldn’t have gone far. She wouldn’t do anything to harm herself or her baby. She love that little growth inside of her as much as she loves him. She wouldn’t do anything to make the both of them regret. That is especially him. Then he thought back to what Emily said to him before he left. “Oh no, is she really going to make me live a life of regret?” he thought. “What happened?” asked Jack. “What do you mean what happened?” questioned Joshua, wanting to punch the shit out of this man. “Emily was so happy this morning that she was going t
