The sun cast its warm glow on the city of Los Angeles but it was only 11 a.m. Annie brought out the suitcase containing my dress outside while I walked to her front.Today, I am wearing a cream-colored dress that was among the clothes Liam got for me.I matched the dress with a pair of black high heels while a small purse was clutched to my hand.Though I was expecting Liam to be in the car already waiting for me, there was no sign of him except Thierry.“Where is Liam?" I asked, my eyes darting around the surroundings while Annie stood beside me with the suitcase by her side.Thierry walked to my side when he heard my question. He bowed his head deeply and raised it.“He told me he will be back soon, ma'am," Theirry replied.“Then get the car ready." I order him in a warm tone. The sun is scorching today and I don't think I can wait longer under it to get my skin burned.“The boss isn't taking the car, ma'am," Theirry responded with his hand crossed at his back while he made a slight
LIAM'S POVEmily's eyes looked lifeless before when I found her in that state but after regaining her composure, she suddenly went back to the kind of person she was which was why I preferred Emily to her sister.“How did you know what happened to me? Don't tell me you did a background check on me and brought me here knowing that." Emily ranted on and stopped. She wanted to say more but she hesitated, probably because she wanted to know if I brought her to the helicopter to mock her.“You told me yourself, can't you remember? On our wedding night," I replied and her eyes widened in shock.She doesn't believe me and I couldn't blame her. I didn't believe myself either because how could I remember what Emily told me years ago?“You are lying? I would never tell you that. It's not possible." Emily insisted, maintaining eye contact.“Oh, did you even know what you act like when you are drunk, Emily?" I asked her and a blush crept to her cheeks.They were so fucking beautiful, and I wanted
EMILY'S POVAfter several hours of being in the helicopter, Thierry announced that he was already at the destination. Slowly the helicopter made its way down and stopped.Thierry got down first and pushed the door open to one side. Liam got down next, and I followed him out. “Get the luggage in," Liam ordered and Theirry did just that.My eyes took in the surroundings. We are now in New York, and I was right when I said Liam has a place to sleep here. The sun is not scorching again. Which made me realize it was already late in the evening.“This is my villa," Liam told me with his hand tucked inside his pocket.“Are we not going to go in?" I asked Liam in a weak tone. We traveled for more than 5 hours, and I was already exhausted. The sun is even about to disappear completely.“It's already time for the gala. However, you can freshen up." Liam said and I yawned, exhausted.We both walked inside the villa while Thierry left after taking our luggage in. The wall is made with glass whil
EMILY'S POV “Your wife?" She stuttered as if she was finding it hard to believe.Her eyes doubled as she looked between me and Liam, trying to check if Liam was joking.“Yes," Liam replied in the same tone while it was his turn to look between them. Could it be that they have been in a past relationship? Because Liam even knows Jane's father.“When did you get married? You didn't even let me know?" The girl asked and she looked as if she was going to cry.Liam just smiled without saying a thing.“Nice meeting you, Emily," Jane said and I shook hands with her.“You too, Jane," I said before releasing her hand.“I think we are still going to hang around then before you leave?" She asked Liam and I scoffed internally.Hang out for what? Why would I even hang out with a married man? “Well, we are going tomorrow. You can hang out with him next time he comes." I said in my head but Liam's reply left me shocked.“Sure Jane. We will be leaving two days from now. I should visit your father,"
I stood in front of Vincent on the dance floor while more people were already gathering around us. I took in a deep breath as I raised my hand to place it on Vincent's shoulder while my other hand grabbed his palm.Vincent secured his hand around my back and pulled me closer to himself a bit. He was tall, but I can't but compare him to Liam, who is of great build, though Vincent is not bad too.“I hope you can dance?" Vincent asked and I chuckled. “You will be surprised I can", I replied before giving him a go-ahead.We begin to move to the music. Familiarizing ourselves with the rhythm and matching up our steps, neither of us were talking, but Vincent beat me to it.“How has everything been?" Vincent asked as we began to move while he spurned me only to roll back to his front.“I'm fine", I replied as we moved in sync again.“I didn't know you got married", Vincent asked, and I wish he didn't, but he was my best friend when we were kids at the orphanage home before Laura adopted me.
“You told me the gala was important to you. Why did you suddenly leave abruptly." I said trying to get Liam's attention but he wasn't even looking at me I decided to seal my lips because I could see that he wasn't in the mood for banters.The drive wasn't long and we pulled over at the Villa Liam was talking about. I unlocked the door and stepped out of the car alongside Liam.Liam faced Thierry with a blank expression, saying, “I want you to stay at the gate, and you must not leave the gate." Liam ordered, and Thierry obeyed him, walking away.Liam walked towards me with his long strides and tried to grab my arm, which I effortlessly pulled away from him.“What are you doing?" I asked, but maybe I should have followed Liam willingly.Maybe I should have let him say whatever it was that was bothering him without responding but it was too late Liam lifted me by my waist and carried me on his shoulder.“Shit!" I cursed in shock.“Drop me now!" I yelled, slapping his back, but he didn'
“So wet" Liam murmured as he raised his hand. It was glistening with my wetness.He returned his gaze to my red face, his cherry lips curling into a grin as he caught me biting on my bottom lip, knowing fully well that what he was doing to me ignited a burning sensation I desperately wanted to extinguish, but I just couldn't put it off! I felt awful, knowing my body always went against my mind, submitting myself to him all the fucking time cause I craved more of his touch. I needed his fucking long fingers in me again, in my wet strawberry pot, to fill me up as he fucked my cunt, but I couldn't let him.I shouldn't. Liam does not deserve me! I can't let his flimsy seduction get into my head!! "This here is evidence that you want me, Emily." He said, his eyes glowing lustfully as he raised his wet fingers and returned his gaze to mine, his voice hypnotic, "Don't lie to yourself, Emily. I know you want me so just let me in."I swallowed hard as he slowly deep his wet finger into his m
I moaned loudly as I had my first orgasm. My chest rose and fell as I took a deep breath in feeling embarrassed. The harshness of the zip echoed in the room, which made me raise my head against the soft pillow.Liam zipped down his trousers and dropped them on the ground.“You are not going to put that thing in me, Liam", I said with a jerk of my head, sitting up.My heart beat rhythmically against my chest and internally, I am still fucking horny.I might have wanted to satisfy my sexual urges but sex between I and Liam would not be possible anymore.“Coming from someone who just had an orgasm" Liam said with a smirk on his full pink lips. He carried himself with so much confidence despite the bulge in his boxerI blushed without realizing it my cheeks turning pink under the chandelier because of Liam's dirty words. My toes curled as I parted my lips.“If it was Vincent or another man, I would have my orgasm. The law doesn't apply to you alone." I said, trying not to sound shameful
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
I couldn't hold my anger in as I get up angrily. I wouldn't let Liam and Aysel disgrace me. However, Aysel turned to face me as if she knew what I had in plan. Maybe she thought I am going to tell Vincent to stood up from the seat then i will hug him but I didn't.“I have nothing more to do here and if you are that curious to know if he is someone I love, then I will give you the invitation card to our wedding" I said and Vincent stood up alongside me with a bow to the two nuisance in front of me.I walked out of the restaurant with Vincent, feeling a sense of relief that the uneasiness I felt is finally over. We walked towards the parking lot and I hop in. Vincent drived us to my apartment but my nerves didn't calm a bit as I get down from the car.There is this funny question heating me up and I wanted to ask him if my guess was true. I don't want to put Vincent in a tight position. Turning to face him as he closed the distance between us, I asked, "Hey, Vincent, can I ask you so
For a second, I thought Aysel was joking but it was all true when I saw the seriousness on her face.”Is there anything on my face Emily?" Aysel asked with a blank expression. “You coming right? I will text you the location" Aysel said as she walked back to meet Liam. The two said something which my ear couldn't pick up before they get inside the car.Vincent turned to look at me with his eyebrows. I guess he is communicating with me slowly to either come with Aysel or we should ditch her.My phone beeped in my hand. I checked the notification and saw Liam text on my phone. Actually, Aysel didn't have my number which was why Liam send the location text himself.“He sent the location. I think we should go" I said and Vincent nodded his head with a smile.He kissed my hand before he etwined my hand with his and dragged me to the passenger seat. Opening the car door, he pulled the door open and I get in.Vincent drove the car to the famous restaurant and help me with the door while Ays
”Hello, Aysel," I start, clenching my hand against my side while Vincent tries to focus his attention on me, but I doubt it would change a thing because I wouldn't act friendly to Aysel today.“Is there a reason I need to reply to that question you asked? I mean, we aren't that close to sharing something personal," I said aloud for her to grasp what I was saying.Liam eyes look in my direction briefly before he suddenly shifts his attention to Aysel. He didn't bother to walk in to explain himself. Perhaps, he thought I would open my mouth and inform Aysel myself that I am working as his secretary.Aysel laughed cutely, covering the part of her mouth with her hand. ”I'm sorry. It's just that I didn't expect Emily to talk to me that way," Aysel lied through her pretentious face as if I was the wicked person here.I scoffed only to notice a change in her expression. “It wouldn't be hard for you to tell me you came here with your new boyfriend," Aysel said with a scornful look.Calming m
It was already three minutes past 4 in the evening when I left my office room and walked towards the elevator. Liam left before me and he didn't bother to strike up any conversation with Mr after the heated argument we had in his office room concerning Vincent.I had to admit that he has been acting weird, which is not something I am oblivious to. It's all written on his face compared to in the past when he was good at masking his emotions but things are different now.“Ms Emily, will you be coming to the party? I heard it was thrown because of you" One of the workers working in the management department said, walking towards.She is a lady in her late twenties with a good petite figure. Something any man would be crazy for because of the way she carried herself with her stunning walking steps.However, I cleared my throat when I realized she just asked me a question and which party she was talking about. Or is anyone having a birthday party which I wasn't aware of?“Is there a party
Call me a Lunatic because the truth is I want to give Liam a slap for calling me a cheating woman when he knows nothing. The fact that he believed whatever lies Aysel told him is still outrageous, considering the fact that I was with him all through and the rare times Vincent appeared varies.“You have know right to say that to me when you are the one having an affair Liam. I only came here as your secretary out of your own will." I said, breathing through my lips as I tried to calm my nerves.”You signed the contract Emily." Liam interjected, acting as if I plead to him to take me back.If only he knew things won't be the same after the 5 month contract expired.“Because you are threaten me with someone else company Liam. You wanted to ruin what Mr Smith has used his life savings to build. You want to ruin it in span of 24 hours" I spat back with venom in my tone.I tried to adjust my expression, taking in a deep breath while Liam only looked at me as I just said something bad. He t
Vincent's eyes followed my direction. I cussed Liam in my mind before returning my gaze to Vincent. Perhaps, it's time to pay back. After all, Vincent will be coming to pick me up in the evening. I can as well act as if I was into him just to spite Liam.“I will be waiting till you get back to pick me up. I am going to miss you, Vincent," I said, and before he could reply to me, I closed the distance between us and kissed his cheek.Vincent's eyes glinted with mischievousness but I smiled to ease the tension.“Take care of your sweet," Vincent said before walking back towards his car, but suddenly, he stopped and walked back to me. My eyebrows raised in question, and at the same time, I felt a cold sweat break on my back. He knew he was looking at our way because he had refused to walk in since the car was parked. As if he wants to see the scene unfold right in front of him.Vincent's hand rested on my shoulder and I tense. “I wanted to adjust the polo." He gave one simple excuse, wh
The sun already rose from the East when I got ready to get to work. I picked up my bag and car key after bidding Xavier goodbye when he got inside the school bus.Turning the doorknob, my eyes widened like a saucer as if I had just seen a ghost, but it wasn't a ghost; actually, Vincent stood in front of my doorstep holding a bouquet in his hand. I smiled like a baby when he flashed me his brightest smile.“Good morning, Ugly duckling," Vincent said with amusement, and I couldn't hold back my smile.“This is a token of my heart to you," Vincent said, and I took the bouquet from his hand. Thank you, Vincent, I said, smiling while looking at the bouquet.“I actually came at the right time. 8 will drive you," Vincent said aloud, and I raised my eyebrows at him in question.“What?" I asked, raising my hands in the air in a dramatic way. The corner of Vincent's eyes twitched, looking at me. “That's ridiculous and I won't allow you to do that," I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.“Says
