EMILY'S POV

Liam took a step closer towards me but instead of walking back, I stood my stance with my chin held high.

“What makes you think I wouldn't dare if you don't cooperate with Emily?" Liam asked, his head bent to match my height.

I swallowed hard at the proximity, my emotions almost getting the better part of me, but I remained still on my poise to not get affected by him. This cruel man has caused me so much harm and I don't think I am ready to go through the same pain again.

“I came early like you said," I said with a shaky breath, goosebumps forming on my skin when his hand grazed my neck.

“So, I think you should keep your promise," I said and Liam's expression changed as he dropped his hand to his side. It was filled with amusement.

“When did I make that fucking promise to you Emily?" Liam asked, his hand tucked inside his pocket as he cocked his head to the left. Liam took several steps back away from me, and that was when I let out a long breath that had been hitch

    EMILY'S POV Blood almost drained from my face when I heard Laura's words. It might have sounded sincere to almost everyone seated at the table right now if they heard her but I know this was an insult to me. She was right. What am I doing with my ex-husband in a restaurant at the same table? Liam ordered what he wanted to eat, leaving both me and Laura alone. He didn't even try to clear the misunderstanding. Instead, he took out his phone and began to scroll. Acting as if he didn't hear whatever Laura said. “I came here because I am Liam's sec..." ”We have things to discuss, mother. Is there anything wrong with that?" Liam asked, cutting me off before I could complete my statement. That son of a bitch. I thought he was going to act dumb in the first place. ”Oh..." Laura said, faking a laugh but Liam saw through her. “Emily, I mean, this is not making sense Liam. Didn't you both divorce?" Laura asked and this time, I was the one who replied. "It is a personal reason, Mother, a

    I relaxed back into the chair, watching as Liam's expression didn't change one bit after what Mr Smith said. Liam leaned back into his chair, a look of interest on his face. "Of course, Mr. Smith. What can I do for you?" Mr Smith took a deep breath before launching into his explanation. "My business is doing well now," he said, a hint of pride in his voice. "But I've been thinking a lot about my personal life, and I've decided that I want to leave my position and sell the company." Mr. Smith repeated as if it was a sentence he had memorized over and over again. I part my lips to say something. I wanted to ask him why he suddenly decided to quit after putting me in this mess. I tried to negotiate with Mr Smith in the first place, and he made a terrible mistake by sending me to Liam. The truth is, I want to know what Liam threatened him with for him to release me in one go. However, whatever I was planning to say got caught in my throat the moment Liam's hand shot out, his fingers

    I sat at the table, my mind racing with thoughts of frustration and annoyance. Why had I signed that contract in the first place? I blamed myself for being so stupid, for not thinking things through. I couldn't take it anymore. I picked up my bag and stood up, my eyes locked on Liam's face. "I'm out of here," I said, my voice firm. Liam looked up at me, a hint of surprise in his eyes. But he didn't say anything, just watched as I walked away. What did I even expect the devil of a man to say? That he would sympathise with me and tell me to forget the contract? He is enjoying this. I stormed out of the restaurant, feeling a sense of relief wash over me as I stepped out into the cool air. I hailed a taxi and got in because I didn't bring my car along. It was all because of Vincent after all. The driver asked me for directions which I told him before the car drove off. I glanced through the open window, enjoying the view, but that was all a lie; I was burning inside. Liam didn't com

    EMILY'S POV The sun already rose from the East when I got ready to get to work. I picked up my bag and car key after bidding Xavier goodbye when he got inside the school bus. Turning the doorknob, my eyes widened like a saucer as if I had just seen a ghost, but it wasn't a ghost; actually, Vincent stood in front of my doorstep holding a bouquet in his hand. I smiled like a baby when he flashed me his brightest smile. “Good morning, Ugly duckling," Vincent said with amusement, and I couldn't hold back my smile. “This is a token of my heart to you," Vincent said, and I took the bouquet from his hand. Thank you, Vincent, I said, smiling while looking at the bouquet. “I came at the right time. At exactly 8 am, I will come to drive you," Vincent said aloud, and I raised my eyebrows at him in question. “What?" I asked, raising my hands in the air in a dramatic way. The corner of Vincent's eyes twitched, looking at me. “That's ridiculous and I won't allow you to do that," I said, my v

    EMILY'S POV Vincent's eyes followed my direction. I cussed Liam in my mind before returning my gaze to Vincent. Perhaps, it's time to pay back. After all, Vincent will be coming to pick me up in the evening. I can as well act as if I was into him just to spite Liam — that's if Liam still has any ounce of feelings left in him because I still can't find out his gain for having me here. “I will be waiting till you get back to pick me up. I am going to miss you, Vincent," I said, and before he could reply to me, I closed the distance between us and kissed his cheek. Vincent's eyes glinted with mischievousness but I smiled to ease the tension between us. Maybe he already saw through my attention because he didn't question me. “Take care of your sweet," Vincent said before walking back towards his car, but suddenly, he stopped and walked back to me. My eyebrows raised in question, and at the same time, I felt a cold sweat trickle down my back like a rainfall on a glass window. I knew

    EMILY'S POV “What is my schedule this morning?" Liam asked and I turned to face him with my two hands crossed in front of me. “You have a meeting with the company shareholders in the next two hours," I said, looking at him while Liam's eyes were still fixated on the screen. ”Next,” He said still not looking up. I blinked my eyes and parted my lips. “You have an appointment with Mrs Bridget at exactly 2 pm and it will be held in your office room,” I explained. ”Next.” ”The CEO of K & Tee company also scheduled a meeting with you and it will last for an hour.” “Next,” Liam said and I sighed. I already memorized his schedule for today, but who knew that would be the first thing he would ask me this morning? I took a deep breath and tried to rack my brains for what I missed. “Next”, Liam repeated, and this time, he finally looked at me. If I thought I had seen Liam angry, then I was wrong because if looks could kill, I would be six feet under the ground. ”I think that is all Mr.

    Call me a Lunatic because the truth is I want to give Liam a slap for calling me a cheating woman when he knows nothing. The fact that he believed whatever lies Aysel told him is still outrageous, considering the fact that I was with him all through and the rare times Vincent appeared varies. “You have know right to say that to me when you are the one having an affair Liam. I only came here as your secretary out of your own will." I said, breathing through my lips as I tried to calm my nerves. ”You signed the contract Emily." Liam interjected, acting as if I plead to him to take me back. If only he knew things won't be the same after the 5 month contract expired. “Because you are threaten me with someone else company Liam. You wanted to ruin what Mr Smith has used his life savings to build. You want to ruin it in span of 24 hours" I spat back with venom in my tone. I tried to adjust my expression, taking in a deep breath while Liam only looked at me as I just said something bad.

    It was already three minutes past four in the evening when I left my office room and walked towards the elevator. Time to go home. Liam left before me and he didn't bother to strike up any conversation with me after the heated argument we had in his office room concerning Vincent. I had to admit that he has been acting weird, which is not something I am oblivious to. It's all written on his face compared to in the past when he was good at masking his emotions but things are different now. Maybe it was probably because many years has passed. “Ms Emily, will you be coming to the party? I heard it was thrown because of you" One of the workers working in the management department said, walking towards me. She is a lady in her late twenties with a good petite figure. The kind of shape any man would be crazy for because of the way she carried herself with her stunning walking steps. However, I cleared my throat when I realized she just asked me a question and which party she was talking

Please make sure you are happy even if you are planning out your revenge on Emily" I recalled Chelsea's words which brought a smile to my face.But why do I still feel empty, as if I haven't done anything?

    EMILY'S POV"No. I don't think I can let you go that quick," Liam said and walked towards me.I wanted to take a step back but then it was too late to even leave when he was looking at me like that. "Don't touch me," I said and he stopped."Now I'm hurt," Liam said in a dramatic tone and all I could do was smile."I will get going then," I said ready to leave."I got you this." He said and gave me a Lily flower. I wanted to laugh at him at first but then I realized Liam knew what he was doing.I had to hate the rose bouquet after what the stalker did by sending a rose bouquet every time. This is part of the reason I hated it because it has been filled up with a bad memory of this stalker."I don't want to take it from you," I said and tried not to stare at him too much.Black fits him perfectly compared to any other colour."Oh, you don't like Lily right?" Liam said with no offence."I got you this too" Liam replied and opened the car only to bring out a peony bouquet.When he saw th

He should keep trying, maybe things will work out between us."I didn't tell you that I don't know how to get a necklace for myself," I said and stood in front of father office room."I didn't know I was the only man who could give you that because how did you know?" He asked and I wish I could run away right now."Well, Chelsea told me," I lied and he looked at me as if he could read through my lie."Why do I not find your answer convincing." He said and I quickly walked past him."I don't care about your opinion," I said and knocked on the door slightly. "Welcome, Liam," He said and Liam offered a bow. We walked towards the couch to sit down. I didn't bother to sit beside him and father seems to have seen what I am up to."I should have come to meet you straight, Father, but I wanted to see Emily first,"

It's not that the thought hasn't crossed my mind but coming this early is what I didn't expect.I have been meaning to go to Liam's office room to question him about the necklace today but when I called Ms Linda, she told me no one had spotted Liam this morning.But now, he showed up in my office room, wearing a shirt that exposed part of his muscular chest."What do you think? I came to see how you are coping in your new office room. Also, to check if you miss me or not," he replied, and I should have expected that reply.Good that he even came because I have been wanting to ask about the necklace from him."Suit yourself but there is no coffee or tea for you Liam" I said but before he could reply, a knock came from the door."Come in" I said and one of the staff came in. I already forgot her name but she is working in the sales depar

I wonder if he is even eating well.The prosecutor excused us while Thierry was still outside waiting at the door."What is it that you have to say?" I asked as I adjusted my tie around my neck. "Do you think it's all over if you keep me here?" He asked like a loser."I thought you like this place, isn't that why you refuse to say anything?" I retorted but that didn't seem to work because he smiled."You don't really know who you are dealing with Liam. Where did you keep my boys?" He inquired and I could see a hint of fear in his eyes and curiosity."Is that why you call me here? I am actually a busy man and I have a place to go right now" I said, ready to leave but I heard a light thud on the table."Emily," Andrew called, not saying anything more as he looked at me with a smirk on his face.And that one name made me stop but I didn't let the weakness show.

There was no breakthrough for him which is why he decided to maintain his right to be silent.However, he was charged to court and yet, he keeps insisting that he needs to see me, which is why I had to dress up this morning just to see him."Sir, do you think we should at least take his underlings to him? If they confess, he will have no choice but to give in because everyone is against him." Theirry said, though I would have done that but I know it won't work because one of them will eventually take the Fall. They will even deny him all because they want him out by all means."Those guys have been trained not to speak up and instead, remain loyal to him," I said and descended the stairs slowly. It still f

Could he be the one who gave me the necklace?If it's someone Chelsea knows then it should be Liam since Vincent denied being the one."Vincent, I'm sorry but you need to excuse me for a while. I need to hurry home because Xavier will be back soon" I quickly said and unlocked the door."When will I see you then?" He asked, trying not to pry too much. "I don't know if we will get to see each other because I might be busy. Thanks for the bouquet" I said and shut the door.Vincent waved at me and watched as I drove the car out. My mind was reeling as I gripped the steering wheel, realization dawned on me. Liam's eyes were filled with mischief yesterday and I should have known the way he acted was suspicious. He saw the necklace and didn't bother asking anything about it.The dance, the videos online, it was all his plan all along a

She is still at my mercy because I could change my mind. I know Father wanted to make sure principle was uploaded between us compared to Laura who always tried to make sure I suffered.‘Now that you and Emily have reconciled, can you wait in the other room till I'm done with your sister? I need to discuss it with your sister and you aren’t supposed to be there.’’ Father said but I could notice the blood drained from Aysel's face.“But Dad, I thought I should be there because this is something concerning the company."Maybe you have forgotten I owned this place, Aysel. This is my company and you can't tell me how to run it." Father said, anger evident in his voice as he clenched his hand around the glass cup. "Or have you already forgotten what you did?" Father asked and that seemed to work.Aysel took her
