EMILY'S POV To say I was surprised was an understatement. I am literally beyond pissed right now. Not in my wolf dreams will I think that Liam will have the nerve to kiss me after the warnings I gave him. How dare he invade my privacy because of a stupid movie. I should have known Liam would agree to come with her because I chose the same place. I washed my hands inside the washing sink in the restroom before looking at my reflection in the mirror; this time, I made sure the door was locked. My pupils were a little dilated, while the nude lips had already faded, losing their colour. “Emily, just a few weeks left, and by that time, you should have successfully taken your revenge," I affirm before leaving the room. I walked out of the restroom and made my way outside. To my disappointment, Liam didn't follow me. "Sorry," I murmured when I bumped into someone on the way. The person didn't reply instead, he walked away from the scene. I tucked my hair behind my ear and tried to walk
LIAM'S POV"Mr Liam, she has already left. Do you still want to come with me to another place?" Fiona asked, and I wasn't even listening to her, and yet she kept talking."Will you love to visit the amusement park with me then?" Fiona asked. I hated women who talk too much. I tolerated her all this while because I wanted to use her but now that the woman I was trying to impress has already left, she has no right to stay here with me."Woman, can't you just read the air and get going." I barked at her and her face fell with shame. I didn't mean to hurt her with my words, but she clearly asked for it by annoying me when she was not my girlfriend."What? I was only trying to...""Fiona," I called, shutting her off and she swallowed hard. "You should have noticed I don't have interest in you. Get the fuck out of here woman." I said in a low menacing voice."What? Why would you hurt me that way? What did I do?" She asked, almost on the verge of crying. "I regret coming here with you," Fi
LIAM'S POVMaddox pulled the door open for me and I walked inside to see them actually working hard to locate who was stalking Emily."When she got the call, I tried to locate the person and it led me here. It was a warehouse, but I don't know why he is going this far," Rylan said, and my frown only deepened."Is it possible that the guy in the dungeon is lying? What if he rest assured that his sister will be taken care of by his boss if they realize he is nowhere to be found for the past two days?" I asked, and Maddox seemed to agree with me that I was right."Okay, you are right," Rylan said and stood up from his seat. "I also found something through the footage you sent to me. He is actually someone in a high position. I am sure he has been Emily before. He can't just target her or should I say he is doing this because of you?" Rylan explained and I couldn't help but think about what he said."Because of me?" I asked, my eyebrows raised in question, I clearly didn't think of this b
EMILY'S POV It's been an hour since Vincent left but I was still standing by the window, looking at the sky. My back collided with the wall as I let out a deep sigh. I literally thought I was already getting okay not knowing it was all a lie. It all started when I had an accident five years ago. It was when Aysel tried to hit me with her car. I contacted zone out but I tried to overcome it without Vincent knowing since he is always not at home. It stopped after three years of constantly going to the gym, training both my mind and body. It helps me a lot but not until I saw Thomas, the man who inflicted pain on me in the past. The one I thought was my father not knowing it was all a lie. Being shot in the chest right in front of me, I realised the panic set in again that I might lose again in this lifetime only if Aysel is caught or thrown behind bars for the evil things he has done. I took out my clothes and disappeared into the bathroom to take a quick shower. I sit inside the b
EMILY'S POVI found it hard to sleep after Liam left. I couldn't, no matter how much I tried, and guilt kept eating me up.Maybe I shouldn't have acted that way to him.Maybe I should have allowed him to stay since he came here to protect me. Liam knows about the stalker and maybe sooner or later, he will know about Xavier.However, before that could happen, I would have successfully chosen to stay in my father's company. I need to know why Aysel was hell-bent on killing me.I won't be surprised if he was the one who sent the stalker to me. She might have wanted to retaliate but I never thought she could go this far just to make me regret ever humiliating her.John has been in hiding after what happened. If Emily knew about what happened, he would only get angry more. I rose up from the bed and walked towards my window, a shadow loom began the plant. Even in the semi-dark place he was standing, I could make out his features.Suddenly, his head turned in my direction and I closed the
LIAM'S POVI parked my car in front of the penthouse and made my way in, Rylan was already waiting for me inside. I had to leave Emily's place at exactly 6 a.m. after making sure she was safe.Without thinking much about what happened last night I pulled the door open and got in. My lead only goes back to one man and he is still in the dungeon."You came late. I hope we still have time" Rylan said, getting up from the couch with a cigarette in between his fingers."I had to make sure she is safe before coming" I rolled up my sleeve and took out my phone from my pocket. I walked towards the safe and punched in the password. I took out the burner phone Scorpion was using and tucked it inside my pocket trousers."Loverboy." Rylan joked and then, his expression turned serious again. "So what are you going to do inside?" He asked and continued, torture him more or kill him?" "I will make him call his boss, that is all," I said and made my way to the underground dungeon while Rylan tagged
LIAM'S POVRylan and I got to the location. It was already past close to 7 a.m. before we got there. Rylan makes sure to check the environs for any possible shadow lurking in the shadow. The breeze blows, making the nearby sway left and right. "Have seen him," Rylan said after checking with the camera in his hands. He passed it to me and I looked through it. He was alone sitting on one of the chairs as he looked around for any sign of danger. I must say, he is actually meticulous and pays more attention to whatever is going on right now. Too bad he won't be able to get us until we get close to him.Rylan, who was dressed in all black, pulled the hoodie over his head and began to walk in the direction the asshole was. He was already disguised as a Scorpion right from home in order not to arouse suspicion. Rylan has the same figure as Scorpion which was Why it was very much easier for him to blend.Rylan got inside while I took the cue of his distraction to get close to the window.
EMILY'S POVI thought Vincent was actually going to take me elsewhere but to my astonishment, the car stopped in front of the police station. "Is there something wrong?" I asked Vincent and he looked at me before taking his key out from the ignition point."The stalker has been found, Emily," Vincent said,d, and it felt as if my ears weren't working for a while. What did he just say?"The stalker has been caught?" He repeated, and my legs seemed to lose strength, but Vincent already understood my situation. He got out of the car and unlocked the door to my side."I don't want to inform you straight at home, but I want you to be rest assured that he will never text you again, Emily," Vincent said, and I nodded my head."Thank you, Vincent," I murmured as he helped me down to my feet. I clutch my bag to my hand as we make our way inside the station.Another detective was actually in charge of the case. "Miss Emily right?" He asked and I answered yes."Okay, we are to inform you that the
EMILY'S POVI watched as Thierry got inside the car with Liam. I would have chosen to stay beside him throughout the ride but I came with my car and I would need to take it along. I brought out my phone from my bag and dialled Chelsea's number."Hello, bab,." I said when Chelsea picked up."Yes, love," Chelsea replied. "What is it? Why does your voice sound tired?" She quickly added, noticing the change in my tone."Nothing much but I think I will need your help again," I said and continued. "I am actually going to come home late so I don't know if you will be able to take Xavier up from school. I already texted his homeroom teacher that I wouldn't be at home, so they shouldn't bother taking me home," I explained.Though Chelsea will still be angry even if I didn't tell her much, the truth is she is about to get married to the love of her life so she needs to spend more time with her heart robe."No problem. Make sure you tell me everything when you are back." Chelsea said and I answ
EMILY'S POVTwo hours later, I was done correlating the data. Liam is actually helpful and he actually did most of the work. I can boldly say I will be able to do this easily all thanks to him for helping me out.I called John to come and take the result I had already compiled into the file folder as a soft copy. "Can you at least let me go and print out the files?" I asked but Liam was actually against the idea.He hasn't let me go since and I think he is enjoying this. I wasn't in the mood to banter words with him so I let him go."Why can't he do that for you? Your personal secretary, I mean," Liam said but what he didn't know is that John was not my personal secretary but someone who was supposed to assist me. Though I am still his boss, both in and outside of the company premises, I still want him to be free in the company until I learn from him."I wish to do it myself. Thanks got your help." I said and tried to stand up but Liam held me down by placing his hand on my waist."
EMILY'S POVLiam came again to visit me and I doubt he will even get tired of this. He is a CEO, for crying out and if we are spotted together, there will be problems because not everyone will love our Union and most people don't even know we were divorced in the past.Linda called me this morning and tried to express herself about how she misses me. One other thing she mentioned is that she wishes Liam and I were actually together.I mean, she is so honest and keeps telling me that the chemistry between us actually clicked. Just see that; she is literally the best girl any man would want because she can see through People.Shaking the thought off my mind, I walked towards Liam and sat down in front of him."What is it again?" I asked in an irritating voice because if care is not taken I will get accustomed to Liam's presence in the office room."You can keep doing whatever you want. I just want to keep on watching you," Liam said with a playful grin on his lips and I swallowed hard.
AYSEL'S POVI thought Dad would reach out to me but he didn't. I was even more surprised when I didn't receive any call from Dad though I was planning to go back home this week.I called Mum and tried to explain what had happened to him but Mum told me he already told Father she would be coming back from her trip today.I could only hope she would be back now because it's already been an hour.I called Mum's number and put the phone on speaker."Hello Mum," I said to the phone."You should have begged him when he told you to. Why didn't you stall it back then." Mum's angry voice boomed through the speaker and I have a feeling that this is bad news.She doesn't have to spell it out for me to know that father didn't change his mind."I talk to him but you know his words are always the final say. He told me you have to keep being a good girl while he will watch you for the next five months." Mother said, her voice laced with frustration."This is why I told you not to steal too much from
EMILY'S POVOn getting home, Xavier's school bus came just in time. The guards opened the door while I took Xavier with me inside. He sat on the couch silently watching a cartoon on the iPad in his hand.I took out my clothes and dipped myself inside the bathtub, washing myself."I don't want to see you getting hurt because of what happened. 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? Because after what Aysel did, she is still living fine.However, it's not how it was in the past because she could no longer live the lavish lifestyle.My phone rang and talked of the devil, it was actually Aysel calling. Now, let's hear what the bitch has to say. I picked up the call and put it on speaker while I continued to wash myself."Hello," Aysel said, her voice breaking through the speaker. "So you think I wouldn't know you are trying
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
EMILY'S POV"I will give you the necklace at the right time, Emily. I love the way it fits your neck Perfectly." Liam said and I wanted to smile right now but I swallowed it back. 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,"
EMILY'S POV"What are you doing here?" I asked Liam because I didn't expect him to find him in my personal office room this morning.And today at that. 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
LIAM'S POV"Oh, you wish?" He replied, his voice hoarse and dead. 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. I am more of a pro when it comes to hiding my emotions."If I
