My heart didn't stop beating against my rib cage even after Liam left the bathroom. I blinked my eyes repeatedly before I calmed down. I washed my body fast and picked up the towel hanging around the door.

I knew Liam would probably still be dressing up, but I challenged myself to prove him wrong that I wasn't scared of him.

“Its fine Emily. Let's act as if we aren't bothered" I chanted in my head as breathe out.

Taking a deep breath in, I placed my hand on the doorknob and pulled the door open with a smile. Just like I guessed, Liam had already worn his trousers but was left with his shirtless.

Liam picked out a grey shirt and wore it while I walked to the dressing table to take my body cream.

“You are no longer shy?" Liam asked as I walked past him. I sat on the bed and raised my leg before applying the lotion to my palm.

“Won't I get dressed?" I asked Liam, who nodded his head as he buttoned his shirt up.

“Oh yeah, and won't you ask me where I am taking you?" Liam asked. He took th

    Jane smiled and opened the door after my reply. Liam got in after Jane, then me. My eyes looked at the beautiful interior with nice designs and I couldn't help but Marvel at the sight of the mansion.“Father is waiting in the sitting room," Jane said and we followed her to where her father was.The man seems to be in his early 50s. He sat on the couch while reading this morning papers he held in his hand.“Mr. Liam," Jane's father called when he saw Liam. Liam shook his hand with him while I stayed beside Jane. Her gaze was locked on Liam, which made me figure out that she was probably in love with him, and it was no longer a guess.“It has been long. You are young as ever," Liam praised Jane's father.The man smiled at Liam before looking in Jane's direction.“I'm glad to know I am still young," Jane's father said dropping the papers.I bowed my head to greet him before raising my head again. He replied with a bow and focus his attention back to Aysel.“Tell the maid to set the tab

    Liam and I ate in the restaurant after what happened between him and Jane's father. Jane didn't stop calling him but at a point, Liam switched off his phone.Warm seeped through me because I realized he was adjusting to new principles. At least, in the past, he never stood up for me when Aysel maltreated me in his presence.“What are you staring at?" Liam asked, and I blinked in surprise before relaxing my expression.“I was thinking about something", I confessed, but I wouldn't tell him what that was.“Is it about what's going to happen tonight?" Liam asked me, but I silenced him by shoving the fork at him.“We are going back tonight so eat fast," Liam said.“What about the people you were planning to meet?" I asked because that was the reason he dragged me here in the first place.“We talked on the phone last night," Liam replied, and I was surprised because he was not even giving me the silent treatment today. He chose to reply to me.Liam paid for the bills after we ate, then drov

But Emily is trying to break that barrier without even knowing.I know I was supposed to embrace her like a man would embrace his woman, but loving someone would just be a weakness to me.

You can retreat now." I replied, walking to my seat. I sat on the chair with my legs crossed.”No, no," Maddox said, shaking his head. “I will be

    I was busy typing on my laptop when a call came in from father. The moment I saw the caller ID, I picked up the call, and the father's voice was heard from the other end. "Emily, dear," Father said.He is actually the only one who cares about me in the household.“Good morning, Father," I said, my voice laced with excitement.“Morning Emily. Hope you slept well?"“Yes, Father," I replied as I closed the laptop.“I need you to come to the office. I want to discuss the future of the company with you and Aysel." Father said and I waited for at least five seconds before replying.I knew Father would eventually pick Aysel because after my pregnancy was revealed in my past life, it was Laura who suggested that I should take off my child while Aysel should take care of the company. However, my mind raced. What could this mean? Was it if Father picked me as his successor? Would the story change?"Of course, Dad. I'll be right there." I replied and hung up the call. I took my bath quickly an

    When I walked back to Father's office, he looked up, concern etched on his face."Everything okay?" He asked and I nodded my head, forcing a smile. "Yes, father. Just a minor spill." I said calmly and sat back on the couch. The coffee spilled on the couch has been wiped off.Aysel walked in just in time and sat down beside me.“Penelope is not actually a clumsy type; you should forgive her," Father said,d, and I nodded my head.“Everyone makes mistakes. It's fine Dad."Father nodded, his expression serious. "Let's get down to business then.""Where were we?" Dad asked, glancing at us. Aysel was the and who spoke first. “About the managing director stuff," Aysel reminded him. Father nodded in affirmation. "Yes. I've been considering who should take over when I retire and like I said I will pick between you two."Aysel leaned forward, eagerness radiating from her eyes."I've decided," Dad continued, "to make it a competition between the two of you."Aysel's smile grew, and I don't ev

    My hands shook as I got down from the car. Aysel has been taken to the hospital, but I knew things were complicated now. Not only did she fall, but she also fainted, and I swear I was scared. I know I didn't push her but everyone already thought I did because I was standing at the same staircase Aysel fell from. I couldn't forget the image of how everyone looked at me with disgust in their eyes. Evident that they knew I did it. After paying the taxi driver, I make my way inside the hospital. The receptionist nurses were already in their position.“Aysel Anderson," I said in a clear tone. The nurse directed me to her room.When I got there, Aysel was lying in bed while a doctor was attending to her. I should have known my actions would result in this, but I underestimated Ansel's intentions. Something was up her sleeve and this was why she acted that way.“Are you her guidance?" The doctor asked and I nodded my head in agreement.“Yes I am," “Okay, is it okay if we discuss it here?

    “I will make sure to get you out today, Emily", Father said while I followed the two cops out of the room. The reporters were already standing outside the hospital gate, but the cops got me inside the car before they could swarm me with questions.They drove the car to the station, and I was led inside the interrogation room.”Your name?" The cop asked, but I kept silent.“Your name?" He repeated.“I would like to see my lawyer," I replied with my hands pressed to my thighs. I never thought I would one day come to a police station for an offence I didn't commit, but fate sure has its plan.“What?" The cop asked in disbelief before relaxing back in the chair with his hand crossed over his chest.“Then call him," He said."My phone", I replied, stretching my palm out. They already seized my phone before we got in here.The cop looked at me with frustration. He must have thought I was a spoilt brat, but the truth is, my lawyer is not even from my father's side. Not long after, my phone

    LIAM'S POVI was in my office dealing with Maddox and Rayne when I received a text on my phone. It was Emily's father that texted me which made my curiosity piqued.Checking the text, the message I saw made me clench my fist in anger, and even my two friends noticed the change in my demeanour.“Did something happen?" Maddox asked. Well, that was his personality. He wants to know everything which I no longer find annoying.I cleared my throat and said the plain truth. “Emily pushed Aysel down the stairs," I said, standing up from the chair. I picked up my car keys and removed my suit jacket from where it was hanging.“Who are you going there for? Is it Emily or Aysel?" Maddox asked and I frowned at him with displeasure.“Emily is in police custody while Aysel was admitted to the hospital," I said, letting them know who was more important to save first.“Let me guess", Rylan chimed, with his finger pressed to his temples as if he were in deep thought. “You are going to save Aysel first

Coming back here was one of my lifelong dreams, and giving Xavier absolute protection was one of them.Vincent came down from the plane with our luggage in his hand. “Uncle Vee!" Xavier yelled with her small voice, waving his hand in the air. I chuckled when I saw Vincent flash him a bright smile as he approached us.“We are here" Xavier beckoned to Vincent. He finally relaxed when Vincent got to our side and stopped jumping.“You are happy to hear Xavier," Vincent said, mimicking Xavier's cute tone, and I had to stop myself from grinning.”Yes, Uncle Vee." Xavier replied.I made a promise to take care of Xavier, but I won't deny him from his father because of the ill-fated relati

    It was a long night, and when Chelsea finally told Vincent about everything that happened in his absence, I was flushed pink as different emotions swirled through me because of the way Vincent paid keen attention to whatever Chelsea was saying.”I must say you are a good friend to Emily. I wish I knew you earlier." Vincent said after drinking the juice inside the glass cup.He reclined his back to the chair as he watched between me and Chelsea.”So if you had known Chelsea before me, would she be your best friend?" I asked Vincent with a sullen expression. I already went up to check up on Xavier but he is still sleeping. When I came back to the dining room, Chelsea and Vincent were still discussing.Before Vincent could reply me, half-sleeping, Chelsea chose to reply.”Emily, I think you are jealous, and don't tell me no because you are fucking Jealous right now, and it's written all over you."

    After breastfeeding Ryan and watching him fall asleep, I walked out of my room and came across Chelsea, who kept grinning at me.“Stop it, this girl! What are you doing?" I asked, looking at her with one side eye but she didn't care as she closed the distance between us.“Well," she drawled and continued. “I didn't come here to taunt you. Instead, it was because Vincent came down now, and it seems he is waiting for you," Chelsea said, and my gut kept telling me she had something up her sleeve.“What is it to you if he doesn't eat yet? What makes you think he was waiting for me?" I asked Chelsea and she replied with a shrug of her shoulder.”It's just my guess. Please, where is Ryan? I know he already missed me." Chelsea declared in a firm tone.”In your dreams hun... He didn't even ask you" I retorted before walking away from her.Chelsea giggled and walked alongside me. “I won't be surprised if he suddenly kisses you or asks you out.””That's because he wishes to, and how is that you

    I didn't know what came over me, but my emotions were a mess the moment I breathed in his scent. Vincent hugged me, pressing his hard chest against my front, and I knew someone was screaming Yes in her head right now.Typical Chelsea's way of saying her plan had worked and she was right about Vincent.“I missed you, Emily," Vincent replied in a warm tone, releasing his arm around me, and I took two steps back.My face flushed pink, embarrassed by the way he suddenly said that, but Vincent didn't act that way; he didn't count it as a big deal like me. Instead, he held my hand as we walked towards Chelsea. “This must be the friend you are talking about. Chelsea right?" Vincent asked and Chelsea rolled her eyes at him in a playful way.Of course, they already met once or twice. Perhaps Vincent had already forgotten Chelsea's face and couldn't recollect her but I didn't stop gisting him about Chelsea during the times he was away.Chelsea couldn't hide her smirk as she winked at me. “Yes,

    EMILY'S POVDecember came quickly and the people in Spain were trying their best to fill the streets with Christmas trees and lights. Maybe that is their way of celebrating Christmas but everywhere was bustling with Christmas songs.Ryan was asleep in the crib when I made my way downstairs and saw Chelsea busy watching the television. She was so engrossed and began to sing along to the Christmas song. She didn't even notice my presence until I decided to speak.“Didn't I tell you Vincent will be coming back today?" I asked Chelsea. She switched off the TV and sprang up from the chair, her eyes beaming at me.Chelsea yawned softly before parting her soft pink lips. “Yes, you told me and if you look well, I already tidy up the room. What do you think about the interior?" Chelsea responded and my eyes darted around the room to see what she was talking about.She was indeed right because everywhere was sparkling with neatness. I am sure Mateo helped Chelsea but I couldn't say it out loud

    EMILY'S POV(FIVE MONTHS LATER)I was surprised when I received Dad's call this morning. It's been over two months since we last talked. Though I couldn't tell him I gave birth a week ago, Dad didn't stop pestering me to come home and settle things with Liam.He even informed me about Liam's father trying to get my contact but I begged him not to release my contact number to anyone even if it was Aysel.”Are you sure you won't be coming home now?" Chelsea asked as she held Ryan, my newborn baby, in her hand. I called Chelsea here the last two weeks when I was almost due to give birth. She got here through the plane and met me at Vincent's place.Vincent has tried a lot and helped me through my pregnancy.

    LIAM'S POV“Wait, don't tell me you sent Zayn to Aysel?" Rylan asked with his eyebrows quirked up the moment he saw me emerge at the door out of the blue when I was supposed to be inside the hotel room with Aysel.“I thought you were planning to have fun with her? Or was I wrong?" Rylan inquired, standing up from the seat.”Maybe I would have if she didn't try to drug me." I replied in a cold tone which made the creases on Rylan's forehead deepen. “Aysel has tried everything to win me back, and the truth is, I might give her a chance," I said in a quiet tone and pulled the hair at the back of my head.“I thought you claimed you don't love her even when Maddox pestered you about it." Rylan took a deep breath and exhaled through his parted lips.“Maybe I was delusional before. I might have finally realized that I am in love with her now." I responded and took the Vodka bottle on the glass table separating me from Rylan.“Fuck!" Rylan cussed with gritted teeth as he sat back on the couc

    (AYSEL'S POV)A low giggling sound left the back of my throat when I saw my reflection in the mirror. I can't wait for Liam to gulp down the entire wine in the glass cup so we can have the best sex of our lives compared to whatever Emily did in the past. Call it greediness, but no man has ever satisfied me or met up to Liam's standard in any way, which was why I am going to seize this moment, now that he was heartbroken because Emily cheated on him.Humming a song under my breath, I took off my gown and stared at my reflection in the mirror. The lingerie looked sexy on me. It was one of Mum's lifelong wishes for me to get married to a wealthy man who would also support in whatever business she add in mind. All I needed to do was get pregnant for Liam, and everything would be different.Meanwhile, the aphrodisiac I took was already working in my system, and I could feel my body getting hot with each passing second.My core was heating and vibrating, and I could feel my clitoris getti

    LIAM'S POV”Hey Liam" Aysel called softly like a kitten which got Rylan's brows furrowed with confusion.It's good to know that Maddox wasn't here because he would have told me he was right about me making out with Aysel behind Emily, and that was what probably pulled the trigger for the divorce.Aysel didn't stop there, instead, she placed her disgusting hand on my shoulder and I almost gagged when I smelled her heavy perfume. I let her do whatever she had in mind because, seriously, I wasn't planning to use her to plan my revenge on Emily, but tonight, I don't know if it was because of the alcohol, even though I only gulped down half of the bottle, I didn't feel a little bit better and I want to break her.No amount of alcohol could quench my thirst. “Hi," Aysel called softly, looking at Rylan's way, which only relaxed into the chair, watching the scene unfold.“I told you to forget about her, Liam. She is not worth it, and I can give you whatever you want," Aysel said in a flirta
