EMILY'S POV

"Wow, Mr Theodore, we didn't know you were actually this good." One of the ladies commented and offered him a bottle of water to drink.

"I didn't do anything, and we still have more to do",, Mr Theodore sai,d, and everyone agreed with him. I could say he is actually the lead here.

I looked at the white team and figured out Liam was sitting casually on the chair with his hands crossed over his chest. His eyes bore into mine, which made me question myself if I had done anything wrong, and since when has he been looking at me that way?

Mr Vaughn took the mic again and explained the next game, which also involved two people forming a partner.

"I will ask each person a question about his partner and you are to answer correctly because the other partner will also be asked the same question," Vaughn said and continued.

"We will gather information within a few minutes and you have five minutes to decide and choose your own partner," Mr Vaughn concluded.

    EMILY'S POV"Next team, please," Mr Vaughn said. I and Mr Theodore stepped forward and sat on the chair. He already told me things about himself but I am afraid I might still lose something.There was no close audience for us like when we were the one looking at Rose and Liam. They were informed to go and sit down. Even as they were making their way to the tent, I read Rose's lips before she faded from my view."I'm sorry for making us lose some points," she apologized, and I didn't really want to know what Liam's reply was.The people present were actually looking at them with envy and someone even said they would make a great couple. It's all good. I just need to focus and try to win this round, maybe we could lead."Okay, now we are starting." The speaker said and proceeded to ask his question."Did you know what Mr Theodore actually wants in a woman?" She asked and I swear, I already know I am going to lose this because Mr Theodore didn't mention it somehow like this.I am sure he

    EMILY'S POV"You can stick to me to look for the materials. I have a good sense of direction too," Mr Theodore said, and I know he was actually looking out for me. Well, I didn't even know he was this outspoken because we rarely see each other as we work on different floors. "Thank you for your kind suggestion, Mr Theodore. I will also try to look out for the materials myself," I said, and a smile graced my lips.Mr Theodore smiled too and showed me the way. "I heard it's not that big," He said, and I looked at him from behind."I mean the woods, so it will be easier to find what we are looking for," He said, and I nodded my head."Okay," I finally replied and continued to walk.We all walked in different directions, looking for where the materials were hidden. Both white and blue tried their best to look out for anything odd among the green leaves and wood."Have seen one!" Someone from the Blue team shouted. He was holding a piece of drawing paper containing Bulldozer in his hand

He wanted to say something, but I cut in before he could come up with another silly excuse."Oh wow. The almighty Liam is actually interested in me" I said in a mocking tone. "Do you seriously expect me to say that?" I spat but that didn't seem to annoy him."I wouldn't expect that from you but if you are willing to, who am I to stop you." He said, like a maniac and a pervert. He is the type to get invested in this kind of conversation."The game will soon be over and I will need to excuse myself," I whispered and walked away, trying to get away from him because I couldn't stop gawking at his chest."You forget this," I heard Liam say, and I didn't bother to turn back to look at him. He must be up to one of his tricks again.Suddenly, my leg slipped on the leaves and I found myself falling again for t

John will make the necessary findings and try to tell me what is wrong. This is part of the reason she didn't intimidate."Don't. Just Chase her out" Chelsea tried to whisper in my ear for only me to hear. However, I wanted to pretend that I was actually the bride. I will try to make Chelsea understand later but now, I want to act like I came for the wedding dress like she suspected."Okay. Let me see if it fits" I said and took the dress from her before walking towards the sales girl."I would like to try the dress on," I said and the sales girl took a better look at the dress."You can do that, ma'am, but we don't allow clients to randomly check out the dress.

    EMILY'S POV When I stepped out of the dressing room, I was expecting the issue to have been resolved but to my astonishment, Aysel is still trying to look for ways to save face. Chelsea came to my side, stealing a few glances at Aysel. "She might get arrested if she chose not to take your help today. I didn't know she was too broke." Chelsea said, and I am sure she was referring to when she told Aysel that she was after a fake product. "That's the price she had to pay for being a nuisance. She is practically grovelling right now and none of her friends will even be able to save her." I replied and a sigh left my lips. It's fun watching her act this way but I will try to save her this once before she would regret it. "Why can't he just call on Liam then? Didn't she say they were dating?" Chelsea posed the question to me, and hearing his name made me remember the way he kissed my cheeks in the woods. "He should try but I am sure he will help out if she does. So what is stoppi

The sales girls are still in the store waiting for their boss before they will close the store.“Where is Xavier?” Chelsea asked one of them, but before they could give Chelsea a reply, Vincent came into view.“Hi Emily,” He said casually with Xavier in his arms. He was already sleeping on his shoulder.“Vincent,” I said and walked towards him to close the distance between us. “You didn't inform me you are coming here,” I said, my voice bleeding with surprise, and he must have noticed that.“I tried to call you, but my phone was switched off, so I couldn't put a

We can actually talk over this but I know deep down that I don't feel like having a conversation with him.Vincent has been acting strange, and I already have it in mind to tell them to go and visit a therapist because of this illness."What do you have to say?" I said and sat on the couch opposite him. "I know I wasn't supposed to give an excuse but I was actually out of the city for some days because of my business. I should have picked up your calls, but I was so busy and didn't even have time to check my phone call." Vincent explained and placed the mug on the table."Vincent, there is no point in explaining. I think I shouldn't have acted like that when you are busy trying to work. I won't call you again unnecessarily." I said

If not that Vincent stepped in, her video would have been uploaded but the bitch literally has a lot of supporters.After leaving the restaurant, I called Mum and tried to talk with her. However, when she picked up my call and I asked her about the position, I said I wanted to be in the company; Mum replied."I'm still talking to your father over this so you need to be patient." Mother said but I am not sure anymore if I can wait any longer."Mum, I can't live like this any longer. I am being humiliated by my friends!" I yelled and fisted my hair with my palm at the back. The passers-by looked at me and I decided to go inside the boutique later to get a few clothes before going home. Clothes are said to be cheaper here."They all call me fake because my father treated Emily right. Am I not his daughter? Isn't Emily the adopted one?" I asked my mother, my voice a little bit hoa

She had that pretentious face as if she was really trying to look out for him.Brother-in-law?I scoffed inwardly watching Aysel as she stood up and let Vincent sit."I didn't know it was you at First. Good morning Aysel," Vincent said and Aysel cast a glance at me.I sat across from Vincent at the rest. Her eyes were flashing with mischief. "Did you know Emily is actually making use of your brother-in-law? She is not interested in you at all." Aysel said; her voice was loud enough and when I thought no one would listen to her anymore, it seemed they couldn't ignore her loud voice.Vincent looked at me but I had to shake my head so that he wouldn't say anything."Vincent, I think we should get going before this nuisance creates a scene," I said and stood up from the chair but Aysel pushed me back, standing in my way with a proud scowl."You're a two-timing gold digger, Emily!"

I am not sure if I was supposed to text Liam and see if he replies because curiosity tugged at me.Not knowing how he is has affected my emotions but I want to keep hoping that he will be fine. I just wished I had told Thierry to let me know once he woke up but I didn't inform him.I took my bag and switched off my phone because I didn't want any distractions. Trying to enjoy this moment with Vincent is going to put my mind at rest. I went inside the restaurant and walked to where Vincent was sitting.

I didn't know I was a pro at faking smiles until today."Emily" Vincent said, his voice laced with surprise. He stood up and pushed a chair back for me to sit on."You didn't even inform me that you are already here," he said and

    EMILY'S POV"The boss made us clean up your room after you left and we had to keep doing it even though we didn't know why," Annie said and I was curious to ask her more questions."Has he woken up?" I asked Annie because I know some of the maids were aware of what happened last night and the news must have circulated."No," Annie replied and there was a slight change in my emotions. I didn't expect it because I was hoping he would have woken up by now but no one came to my room last night.No one snuggled close to me in the middle of the night. If Liam was awake, he would have done all this but there was nothing like that throughout the night. He didn't sneak inside my room because that was something Liam would have done."He is not waking up," I said, trying to make Annie open up to me as I walked closer to her and held her hand."What happened to him? You know it right?" I asked Annie but she was actually trying not to speak up."I won't tell anyone, I just want to know why he is l

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."

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.

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
