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

    “Get in the car, Emily."I am glad Liam didn't reply but a part of me yearns for his sweet words. Maybe he was going to tell me we can start leaving like a normal couple but that is just my wishful thinking.Liam Nolan will never do anything like that. He is never the type of man to go back on his words but he did it once.When he found out about my pregnancy in the past, he told me he would take care of me till I delivered but all those promises turned out to be fake when he suddenly changed towards me.I got inside the car and sat beside Liam in the front seat. He didn't add anything more but his jaw clenched hard.My body jerked to the front when Liam suddenly started the car and was already driving out.“Are you okay?" He asked in a high-pitched voice, filled with concern and care. I almost fall again for his cool voice.

    “Kiss me, Emily and you will have the key," Liam said with a smug smile.I knew it was just a simple word, but it made my heart beat rhythmically against my chest. Just a kiss but I don't think Liam deserves it.He towed my car away only for me to see it at the garage. Liam must have followed me and he already knew I was angry.Normally, Liam knows I want the keys right now. Maybe he already guessed I needed the piano for something important.“What games are you playing again? You agreed to give me the key." I said in a calm tone.Liam shook his head blatantly while he raised his finger in motion for me to stop.”I didn't agree but I told you to follow me," Liam replied me in his calm, deep voice and fuck, he was right.“I only need the key. We are already divorced, and I am still here because of your father. You don't have to keep passing your boundary." I explained with my eyebrows furrowed.My hands are no longer on my hips, but now I clasp my palms together while I look at Liam wit

    I actually thought Liam wouldn't follow me, but the devil was even the one who showed me where the room was. I stepped in without sparing Liam a glance as I walked towards the piano bench in the semi-dark room.The large curtains were drawn a little bit back which made me wonder if Liam came to this room in the past.Liam switched on the light while I sat quietly on the comfy chair in front of the piano. The white light illuminated the room, and I wish I could relish in the beauty of the room, but I know why I came here.I looked behind me to see Liam already leaving the room but I was wrong because he suddenly shut the door.With a sigh, I said, “Are you not going to leave? Aysel is waiting for you." “That is jealous Emily speaking. I owned the house, remember?" Liam responded in a playful tone. He walked towards the couch pushed to one corner of the room and sat down.For real, he is in a good mood, unlike any other day. “You can just give me some privacy," I managed to say before

    LIAM'S POVThe drive to the club took me a lot of hours before arriving at the destination. Rylan had already dropped a message that he was in the club, but I ended up leaving the house because my emotions were in turmoil. I could feel my heart weigh with guilt when I saw Emily playing the piano in the room. She seemed so engrossed in whatever song she was playing, but it felt as if I had heard that melody somewhere.Undoubtedly, this wasn't because my dead sister also loves playing the piano, a fact that remained hidden till today. However, it was because Emily also played the piano with a smile on her face, and this time she wasn't faking it but she also cried.I don't know why she did but part of me was curious to know whatever reason it was for shedding that tear.The car pulled at the garage before I stepped out of the car. It was already dark and the city of Los Angeles was already bustling with different neon lights and street light positioned on the side road.Burying my emoti

    EMILY'S POV My breath stiffened when I heard the door creak softly. I knew I was supposed to be sleeping, but I woke up in the middle of the night because of the nightmare I had. I pretended to be asleep when I heard the faint echo of his footsteps. It was none other than Liam. He doesn't have to speak for me to know he is the one. But what is he looking for in my room?Annie already told me Liam left the mansion, but why is he back in my room in the middle of the night?The bed dipped because of his weight on the bed, and I steeled myself, not daring to make a move.His mint smell invaded all my senses and I relaxed when he suddenly hugged me from behind.“You are messing up with my head, Emily and you aren't even trying," Liam said in a whisper but I fucking heard every word that came out of his sleep.Funny to realize that whenever I sleep with you, it's different. And no demons are chasing me in my dream.If my eyes were opened right now, I would have rolled my eyes at him becau

    Chelsea barged inside the sitting room in her high heels, her loud voice boomed through the room.“Babe tell me, you are ready for this." She said as she dropped her bag on the floor.Chelsea raised her hand high, giving me that killer look. I didn't get a thing about what she was telling me, and she must have sensed it because she parted her lips again. “I have the latest gist for you", Chelsea whined as she tugged on her dress. My eyes narrowed because it felt as if she was speaking in parables which I didn't get.“I don't get what you are telling me, and good morning, big head. You didn't even bother to call me this morning," I said while she brought out her phone and posed for the camera.“I am sure your boyfriend didn't see you before leaving the house," I said, and lose the bun while I used my fingers to massage my scalp.“I told him I have a place to go and I won't be seeing any man," Chelsea said in a dramatic tone. ”I can't believe he actually allowed you to go like this.

    Instead, he pushed two fingers in and I rolled my eyes when I saw the white dot forming.My legs shook when he increased his thrust faster, and I began to moan softly. One hand holding his shirt while my free hand holds the railing.Anyone passing by could hear me moaning softly but I didn't care. I didn't mind. I just want to enjoy the feel of his hand against my pussy.His hand touched my clit and I melted like a jelly. Before I could even stop it. I already mentioned Liam's name. I was so close.So close to cumming but then his thrust became sloppy before he finally stopped.”What are you do..." I couldn't finish my words when he suddenly carried me, sweeping me off my feet.His footsteps hammered against the hard floor. It was a hotel suite and I think he was actually looking for a vacant room.He kicked one of the doors open with his leg and dropped me on the bed with a light thud.My hands rest on the bed as I rest on my elbow.”What? Are you scared?" He asked and took off his

    "Did you know what happened to her when you were separated?" He asked with his forehead furrowed with brows.”I do not need you to tell me that." I said, acting nonchalant even though I wanted to know everything that happened.”As if you could dig it up yourself. I love Emily, Liam not in the way you could ever imagine. I will take care of her myself," Vincent declared, clearly challenging me, but I can assure him that he will fail.”I hope you will still have the nerves to say that when I uncover every dirty little secret you have." I said and left, not giving him the chance to talk.Rylan's name came to my mind and I called him immediately.“Hello buddy", I said, and he answered immediately.“I seriously need your help, Rylan, and you need to do it because I am asking nicely," I said and inhaled sharply."What is it?" He asked and I couldn't be more calm.”I need you to find every information on Emily from five years ago." I said and I heard a frustrated sigh from the background."

    “I’m glad to know she is okay. Maybe I can come tomorrow. Perhaps, ask for her an apology.” Mr Brandon said and I chuckled. He is a very honest man.”I have a lot to say to you. Maybe you could arrange a meeting.” Mr Brandon proposed and I queried my brows.“Of course sir, I would like to know if you will be free tomorrow. Then I can come to you.” I said.”I am free tomorrow. I will see you at the hospital.” Mr Brandon said. I parted my lips to reply but he beat me to it.“Thanks, Liam.” ”I should be thanking you for raising her for me to marry.” I said like a drunken man ready to have up his life.”Guess you didn't want the divorce anymore. I will speak to you tomorrow” Mr Brandon said.“Alright, sir”, I said before hanging up the call.I took another drag from the cigarette and dropped it on the floor before rubbing it with my shoe.I turned my attention back to the atmosphere and everything appeared black except for the small street light. I walked back inside the hospital after t

    LIAM'S POVI walked out of Emily's hospital room, and despite that, every bone in me screamed for dominance. It took me a great will to leave Emily's room without ripping Vincent's arm off when he touched her.Never will I think that a day will come when Emily will ever be in danger. I have always believed I will be there to catch her whenever she is about to fall but I was wrong. She almost lost her life to that bitch clothed in human form.And now, there she was lying in the hospital bed. My phone rings inside my pocket and I fish it out quickly, only to see Thierry's name flashed on the screen.”Hello Boss. I got all the necessary footage but I didn't see who caused the fall. It felt as if the camera footage was wiped off the camera." Thierry said, making my brows furrowed in confusion.My hand clenched around the phone when I heard Thierry. This won't stop me from tearing Aysel apart.”Are you going to tell me you didn't find any clue at all?" I asked in a ragged voice.”The peopl

    “I have a very important information to pass across to you but in exchange you will need to give me 20 million dollars" My brows furrowed, forehead forming deep creases as I read the message.No one has my contact except four excluding the people in my place of work because this is a new number. My plan was to go home and rest while I wait for the school bus to drop Xavier from school.I hesitated whether to call this unknown number or just ignores the message. But suddenly, my phone vibrated in my hand and there was an incoming call.Looking at the number, a realization dawned on me, seeing that it was the same number that just texted me. Breathe in and out of my nostrils, I called the number and a familiar voice boomed through the speaker.“Emily. Do you recognize me?" The voice said and it didn't took me long to recognize who the owner of the voice is. It was a haunting memory I actually wished to Ignore and forgot but everything came rushing back when I picture the face in my hea

    I should see you off. I hope you don't come to this company again. Don't even try to step your feet in here."”I'm not sure about that. Let's watch and see,” I replied, and that seemed to have hit Aysel's nerve."Don't play dumb, Emily," Aysel sneered. "You know exactly what I'm talking, about. The company.” She says spelling the word out for me to hear. Father's company. It's mine, and I'm not going to let you take it away from me." She affirmed and I applaud her bravery.I felt a wave of anger wash over me, and I stood up, my eyes locked on Aysel. "That's not true," I said, my voice filled with mockery. "Father left the company to us and he made the promise to hand over the company to one of us. You are only in this position because I left Los Angeles" ”Did you seriously think he would give it to you?" Aysel asked, her voice dripping with sarcasm. ”It's mine, and I'm not going to let you take it away from me Emily. Mark my words. He is my father, not yours," she barked at me, and

    “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. Nolan.” I replied in

    I was about to make an excuse to leave and get some fresh air when Liam suddenly took a step towards me. I took two steps back but he wasn't going to back down. I kept walking back, not knowing what was wrong, until Liam pinned me to the wall, and a smile graced his lips.”Why are you so easy to read?” I tried to protest, but he just smiled and kept dancing."I want to go and meet Vincent. Stop trying to fuck with me," I insisted, trying to push him away, but he held my hands and placed them on his shirt.But Liam just laughed, and his one of hands circled my waist. “When did you see him?l," he asked, his eyes glinting with amusement.Just as I was starting to get frustrated, the music stopped, and a man was standing on the stage.Liam released me but he didn't let go of my hand. The man standing on the stage is actually one of the men in this party. He was also wearing a mask. He pulled it off and everyone roared and cheered when they realised it was the Famous CEO of Deleesh Mobile
