I was sure Liam didn't come home last night but what I didn't fail to notice is that, Liam's breath reeked of alcohol but strangely, it wasn't disgusting to me.

Liam is unpredictable which is why I have planned to double up my games. I already used two days to gamble around after waking up in this body which is why I won't waste any more time.

I brushed my hair, facing the dressing mirror. I dropped the brush when I saw Annie come towards me after dropping my food on the small table beside the bed.

Annie took the brush and began to brush my hair. Chelsea already told me she would get here soon with the dress which was why I already took my bath.

“Should I apply the makeup ma'am?" Annie asked me with her voice low.

“Don't bother Annie, my friend will be here soon," I said and talk of the devil, Chelsea appeared right at the door.

“Surprise!" She screamed in excitement, holding a bag in her hand.

I rolled my eyes at her before telling Annie to leave the room.

    “That was why I said I wanted to see you. I am not even sure if he wants me, but I don't know the best way to make Liam pay." I ranted in a low voice, but Chelsea heard me.She took my hand and placed it on her palm while her gaze was locked with mine. Without saying anything, I knew she was angry about how things turned out.“Emily," Chelsea called softly, her voice sweet like honey. “You got me, girl," Chelsea reassured me. ”I would have gouged his eyes out of his eyeballs if not because of you. You know I am a good fighter right?" She asked with a stoic expression while her eyebrows were raised.A low chuckle escaped my lips when I realized Chelsea was trying to make me laugh.“What? Emily, you think I am joking?" Chelsea asked with her eyes widening, and I laughed hard at her expression.“We both know you can't even face Liam. You guys don't even talk?" I confessed and it felt like a blow to Chelsea's face because I was right.Liam and Chelsea are like cats and rats. They are lik

    I can't believe Chelsea took me to the top boutique in Los Angeles. This is the famous store celebrities and world-class people visit to get clothes.The car pulled into the parking lot. We both stepped out of the car and walked towards the main entrance. The staff waiting at the door welcomed us inside with a pleasant smile.“You should have told me you were bringing me here. Did you know the dress here is fucking expensive?" I asked in a whisper while the staff led us inside.My jaw dropped at the interior design of the boutique. The light illuminated the wide space while different dresses were arranged in rows.“Oh Emily," Chelsea said, drawing my attention back to her. I knew she must have frequented this place in the past while all I did was bury my head in my room.“You are the wife of the hottest billionaire right now in Los Angeles. I mean, Liam is hot in town right now." Chelsea added with a shrug of her shoulder.I shook my head slightly before smiling at her coldly and she

    I sat nervously on the couch in the sitting room while watching my favorite movie series. Though, at a glance, it looked as if I was concentrating on the movie, the truth is I was nervous, and I couldn't stop thinking about how tonight was going to be.Liam didn't promise to come home straight and we aren't even chatting. I looked at my phone, checking for his message but what was I thinking? He wouldn't even text or call me and I doubt whatever plan Chelsea has taught me is going to work.“Wear that sexy night dress and wait for him in the sitting room. I am sure he wouldn't be able to push you away if he saw you." Chelsea's name replayed in my mind. One thing I didn't tell Chelsea is that Liam is interested in my body but not in my heart. I want him to fall for me, not to lust after me, but Chelsea already assured me to remain calm.The car honked loudly outside, which made me spring out of the couch. I tiptoed to the giant window and pulled the curtains aside slightly.Liam's car

    “Tell me, Emily. What games are you playing?” Liam's voice dripped with sexiness while his large, calloused hand traveled down my thigh. I knew what he wanted, and a sense of pride filled me, knowing that Liam wanted me, but too bad this was only going to be a game.Involuntarily, I moved Liam's hand away from my neck and escaped from his trap but I don't think the devil is ready to let me go right because his forehead formed deep creases when I turned to look at him.“You must have a tired day, Mr. Nolan. I would like to retire to my room," I said with a look of tiredness.Liam's gaze traveled down my body as he ruffled his hair with his hand. I took a few steps back momentarily but the devil took two steps towards me.The atmosphere grew tense and the only sound that filled my ears was my rapid breathing.“Come here," Liam rasped in a low voice. Seeing the look in Liam's eyes, I made my way to the staircase, but that was the only fucking mistake I shouldn't have made.I felt the d

    My knees wobble as I lean towards the staircase railing. My breathing still came out uneven and a lone tear escaped the corner of my eyes.“Oh, good Lord," I whisper with a shaky breath. I wiped the tears off my face with the back of my hand before making my way inside my room. I locked the door with a click and switched on the light in the room. My phone vibrated on the bed, prompting me to check who just messaged me.A smile spread across my lips when I found out it was Chelsea and not only that, Aysel also messaged me.Sitting on the bed, ignoring the wetness in between my legs and the aching need, I clicked on Chelsea's message first.“Tell me, did it work?" Chelsea asked with a crying emoji.Out of frustration, my fingers worked fast on the keypad of my phone.“It fucking worked, you bitch, and now I'm going to sleep with an aching body," I replied before letting out a sigh.Chelsea's reply came almost immediately. “Go girl. Let's hope you turn the tables around. I will be waiti

    A bitter smile graced my lips as I walked forward to take a closer look at Liam's trousers. Aysel resumed what she was doing while mocking me with her eyes. I took a deep breath in before parting my lips.“It's fine. I actually came here because I was getting some things around here. I will let you be," I said with a faint smile. I turned my back towards them and made my way to the door.“Emily wait," Liam called in a cold and stern voice but I didn't turn back. This is definitely what I want. Aysel has promised to get Liam to his side and I'm glad he is taking my warning seriously but I haven't caught them yet. It was only my assumption.“Let me go after her," I heard Aysel say before I walked out of the room in my high heels.The door was pulled open and then shut. Aysel's footsteps echoed behind me as she walked briskly towards me. She stayed in my line of steps and walked to my front, blocking my view.“What are you doing?" I demanded in a cold tone while looking at Aysel.The

    The butler ushered me the moment I got to the doorstep. After leaving Liam's company, I stopped at a restaurant before driving to Father's place.I wasn't surprised when I saw Aysel’s car in the parking lot. She must have run here after I already destroyed her phone. Now that the video will be nowhere to be found, I can't help but sigh in relief. The people I called my family were already sitting in the sitting room and I believe they were probably waiting for me because of the heavy atmosphere in the room. I took off my heels and wore the slippers before making my way to them.“Good evening, Father. Mother," I said with a bow while waiting for his reply.“Emily, how was..."Slap!The sound echoed in the room as I lifted my hand to rub my cheek. I was expecting mother to slap me but I didn't know it would be this fast. Maybe I underestimated her.“How could you, Emily? Why would you slap Aysel and also hurt her hand in the process?" Laura yelled and raised her hand again but this tim

    “You knew you caused all this ruckus, Emily. Tell me. What has gotten into you?" Laura asked, seething with anger.Her hand held the fork in a spoon in a tight grip as if she was going to bend it before throwing it at my face.I swallowed the lump at the back of my throat, knowing fully well that I would never give Laura the satisfaction of seeing me weak again.Without replying her, I picked up my phone from the table, including the small purse containing my small makeup.“I will transfer the money for a new phone to Aysel after leaving this place. It will be through bank transfer," I said and I rose from the chair.I heard Aysel scoff before focusing her attention back on me.“And you expect me to believe that? You this fool," Aysel barked at me like a feral dog ready to take a bite.”I told you I would pay for the damages, just like Father said. I don't have any reason to lie," I replied hastily, but before I could turn to leave.Aysel gripped my arm into a tight grip. She was alre

    When I woke up, the first message that popped up on my phone was Liam's message. Today is the day we will be travelling for the business trip. ”Meet me at my place at exactly 9 a.m. Emily. You can't come late."I read the message and cringe, a shiver of unease gripped me as I made my way to the bathroom. I took my bath and brushed my teeth. Xavier already left with Chelsea this early morning. I have entrusted my son to Chelsea care to take care of.Unpacking my clothes from the wardrobe, folding them and placing them inside my suitcase. It was already Past 8 when I made my way outside. I took a taxi to Liam's place.After getting down from the car, I made my way towards the gate and knocked on it. The two guards positioned at the gate open the door and usher me in with surprise on their face. They must have recognised me. In the past,.I thought they wouldn't recognise me but I was wrong.To be back in here, it actually brought out old memories which I actually want to forget. “The bo

    Xavier was the one who spotted me first before Vincent could even see me waiting at the door.“Mummy!" He cried out as he left Vincent's side. I hugged Xavier tight the moment he ran towards me. My little boy doesn't even look a bit tired, like the adult playing with him.”Mummy, I miss you", Xavier repeated, and a beautiful smile graced my lips. He must have missed me all day because he hasn't seen me.”Mum is sorry. I missed you too" I said and kissed his forehead. He smiled and bugged my neck with his fragile.”Now, go and sleep, Xavier." I said but I noticed a change in Xavier's expression. “I know you want to play more, but mummy and Uncle Vee need to talk." Xavier nodded his small head while I guided him upstairs to go and meet Chelsea. Chelsea smiled at me and carried Xavier inside. I went back to the sitting room while Vincent already stood beside one of the couches.”I want to thank you for today Vincent. I...I was confused about who to call and it was only your name that ca

    I slept off inside the car but occasionally I woke up calling Xavier name. It almost felt like a dream but my instinct kept telling me i missed something and it was only Xavier name that rolled out of my tongue.As if I was actually right, I heard Vincent voice right in my head. “They are both at home safely" Vincent said, his voice smooth and calm. I heaved a sigh of relief as I succumb to the darkness that threatened to engulf me whole.When I twitched my eyes open again, it was the bright light coming from the bedside lamp that caught my attention first.However, slowly, I turn my head sideway and only to see Chelsea beside me.My eyes widened in shock as I sit up on the bed. “Easy Emily. You are going to hurt yourself at this rate" Chelsea said with caution, rubbing my back.“When did you get here Chelsea?” I asked, my voice filled with curiosity and concern. They couldn't have got here unless Vincent went to pick them up. ”And where is Xavier? I can't believe I got drunk when y

    “Alright, everyone, since Mr. Liam knows where Ms. Emily is living, we will have to let the Boss go with her," I heard John say as he bowed his head in front of Liam.“Goodnight, boss," They chorus, offering Liam a deep bow, and I shake my head frantically in disbelief.Are they going to leave me here all alone with Liam?Where is their dignity?Before I could even stop them from leaving they all dispersed as if they weren't here with me just now.“Emily" Liam called my name, his tone soft and apologetic. Or maybe I was the one misinterpreting him.He took a step towards me but I raised my hand in the air. “W...Wait," I said softly, expecting him to back away, but he didn't.I am about to vomit right now because of the alcohol I took. Liam didn't even take anything.”You need to s... step back away from me," I said with a warning, and Liam seemed to notice what I meant.“Where are you living, Emily? I will take you there," Liam said, and that word seemed to snap me back to earth.At l

    We arrived at the venue where the party will be held alongside the team members. However, some of the team members weren't with us yet so I thought they wouldBut just as Liam was about to take me away, my phone rang. I stumbled over to answer it, and I heard Vincent's voice on the other end."Hey, Emily," he said. "I'm outside the restaurant. I saw you stumbling out, and I thought I'd come to give you a ride home."I looked up at Liam, who was watching me with a mixture of concern and annoyance. "Vincent's here," I said, as I stumbled over to him. "He's going to take me home."Liam's expression turned dark, and he stepped forward. "I don't think that's a good idea, Emily," he said. "You're in no state to be going anywhere with anyone."But I just waved my hand at him and stumbled over to Vincent, who was waiting for me outside. "Thanks, Vincent," I said, as I collapsed into his arms. "I owe you one."Vincent smiled and wrapped his arms around me, holding me close. "Anytime, Emily," he

    Liam didn't let me say anything as he dismissed me from the room right in front of Georgia. I walked inside my office room, trying to watch him through the open blinds separating us but Liam pressed the remote, blocking my view from everything that was supposed to go on in the room.I relaxed back in my seat, my nerves going erratic as I caught a handful of my hair in my fist.The girl sure has ulterior motives but I don't want to dwell on it. With time, I knew she would leave, but I was curious to know what they were talking about.* * *When it was almost 10 am, I picked up my note and pen with me as I stormed inside Liam's office in my long strides, the shoe making a soft click sound on the floor.“You have a meeting with the staff in a few minutes, Mr. Nolan," I said, and my eyes quickly darted around the room; there was no sign of the girl anymore in the room.“Yeah," Liam said, standing up from the seat. Before he left the room, his eyes raked over my body but then, he adjusted

    Liam's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the girl who had just come in, but then pulse his lips, relaxing his back on the chair as he finally remembered who it was.He always has that expression on his face when he is sure of something. I try to remain calm as I take in her appearance. She had a baby face with stunning brown eyes. She used mascara and red lipstick on her lips. For real, she looks pretty.“Come on Liam. Stop acting as if you didn't know me when I fucking had a crush on you for good eight years." She said and turned her head sideways to take a better look at me.“This is Georgia," she said, turning around to show her eight figures to Liam's face. The girl sure has boldness and I love that.“Maybe I changed a little bit but you should still recognize me. I am Maddox's sister for crying out loud" She added and flashed him a smile.I thought Liam would treat her as a ghost when he suddenly took a sip from the coffee I made for him.“Welcome back, Georgia.

    Vincent came in early the next morning before Xander could leave for school. My eyes didn't miss the way they both played with each other before Xander bid Vincent good-bye to go to school. Vincent and I talk as if he didn't just confess to me yesterday but my stupid body reacted to his little touch as if I am a young teenager when I am not.“I will drive you to your place of work" Vincent said when he saw me checking the drawer for my car keys.“You don't have to bother yourself Vincent. I should thank you for staying with Xander this morning" I said and composed my expression, looking at him.“Allow me to stress myself Emily." Vincent said as he walked towards me It took me a great effort not to take a step back away from him.I swallowed hard when he got to my side and tucked some strands of hair behind my ear.“And I told you I won't hold back." Vincent said, his voice barely above a whisper as I held on to the side of my dress.“I won't stop myself from caring for you Emily. W

    “I don't think I can do this, Vee," I said, only for Vincent to shut me up with a raise of his hand. He smiled at me and I could see he wasn't faking it in any way.For the First time, it felt as if this was the first time I would ever see Vincent smile this way. “I thought you would have noticed Emily. I thought I was giving you the signs for you to know that I am actually in love with you," Vincent said, and I shook my head slowly, my palms becoming sweaty.“It wasn't my fault. I mean we are friends. Best friends till we meet again in Los Angeles" I confessed without much difficulty.I didn't stutter or embarrassed myself. I aimed to clear the misunderstanding. I know I somehow use Vincent in order not to appear weak in front of Liam and Aysel.However, Vincent took another step towards me. If 30 centimeters apart before, then I have to say Vincent is breathing the same air as me because there is no space between us anymore.Anytime from now, Xavier's bus will arrive, and I will ha
