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

This 'incident' is so lame. It was the oldest trick in the world. She was a rebirth person & she knew her 'sister' attic well yet she still easily fall for her act ? isn't the person who was supposedly being reborn given a 2nd chance would be wiser & smarter when facing obstacles in her new life ?

    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

    EMILY'S POV“Mrs. Nolan we will have to detain you if you refuse to tell us your motive for pushing Miss Aysel down the stairs." The cop said in a cold tone.He must be angry because I refuse to say anything since we have been here. I know it is already getting late but there was no sign of Father or Chelsea coming.Even my lawyer hasn't come yet and I believe she hasn't seen my message since she was probably busy.“I think we will have to detain you, Mrs. Nolan, since you are not cooperating with us," The cop said and brought out the handcuffs.My hands were already lying on the table between us, all he needed to do was raise them and handcuffFor the first time, I will be sleeping outside which is the cell room. I shut my eyes when I felt the cold metal around my wrist, but the door was hung open, and I fluttered my eyes open in shock.Liam stormed inside the room with a neutral expression as usual.“Who are you?" The cop asked with mouth open agape but Liam walked to my side and ki

    I woke up feeling happy because my outline for the new comic book had already been approved by my agency, and I would be signing the necessary documents today.My phone rang inside my pocket, which made me stand up from the bed to check the phone. It was Aysel who was calling me.“So what do you have to say bitch" I muttered as I picked up the call.“Father wants you to come to the house this morning," Aysel said and hung up the call.I scoffed as I dropped the phone on the bed. I put on my dress and stepped out of the room, only to see Liam eating breakfast in the dining room.Liam stood up from the chair and walked towards me before I could get to the door.“Let Theirry drive you today," Liam said, blocking my way to the door.“Why?" I asked.He shouldn't tell me about the bullshit of wanting to protect me because I don't fucking care about that right now.“Thierry would have informed me yesterday if you had gone with him. Unless you want to see him get sacked, allow him to drive yo

    I sat on the chair, sipping coffee and nervously fidgeting with the hem of my jeans. The Editors already told me the contract had been sent to my lawyer, and they even gave me privacy by stepping out of the room for me.I kept checking my wristwatch, and not long after, a knock came at the door. My lawyer, Sheila walked in her high heels.“I'm for coming lat,e," Sheila said with a warm smile on her face and a sleek briefcase in hand."Please. Come on in." I said and she walked in to sit beside me.Rachel pulled out a stack of papers and pens. She dropped it on the long table and faced me."Okay, Emily, let's get down to business," Sheila said, her expression turning serious. "ShadowMoon Agency wants to option 'My Husband Regret' for comic, film and TV adaptations. This contract outlines the terms." Sheila explained and quickly went through the papers.My heart skipped a beat. This was happening. Sheila walked me through the contract, explaining each clause and ensuring I understood

    A week already passed, and Aysel's competition day was today. Liam and I didn't see each other much after the fight we both had. He now sleeps at his office and only comes home once in a while.I practiced and managed to practice with the piano. I know today is going to be a blast because I am going there to shame someone.I wore a light red dress and matched it with black heels. I applied to Makeup and adorned my neck with a silver necklace.As I descended the stairs in my long gown, even the maids were stunned when they saw me. I couldn't recognize myself when I stared at my reflection in the mirror.“Take me to Exor Hall," I told Thierry when I got inside.Since Liam made it clear to have Thierry around me so that he wouldn't get sacked, I have decided to just listen to him again. The car pulled out of the mansion and sped through the road. I pulled out my earphones and listened to classical music. Relief washed over me as I closed my eyes to let the music consume me.

    “Why will you accuse Miss Aysel of being the one who stole your song" How is that possible?" One of the judges as she took the microphone from the MC.Aysel held her long dress as she walked towards me in her high heels on the stage.“Emily is my sister!" Aysel said, and everyone gasped in shock; confusion marred their faces. I sat with a relaxed expression as the judge looked in my direction with a questioning look. I nodded my head yes in affirmation that what Aysel said was true.The judge focused her attention back on Aysel. “That doesn't give you the right to accuse her because, to me, it seems you are the one who stole Miss Emily's song," the judge said, and I couldn't help but smile.Aysel's hands shook as she placed them on her chest in a dramatic way. “Tell them you stole my song, Emily!" Aysel yelled.“Calm down miss Aysel. Do you and Miss Aysel live in the same house?" The judge asked and I couldn't help but applaud the Judge for being wise.Aysel hesitated, and the hall r

    EMILY'S POVVincent was surprised to see me wide awake when he came in. I try to calm breathing, not ready to reveal anything about Liam coming in.I just guess Vincent will be pissed if he heard about Liam mentioning the stalker. Could it be that he probably followed me here?How I wish I could just see his face.For him to know about where I am, he would have been watching me for a while but I am sure Xavier will be safe because he is with Chelsea.“It has been confirmed that Aysel was arrested and she is now in the Police custody" Vincent explained, stopping me from thinking and my brows furrowed in confusion. I actually thought it was probably a lie when he said that but I know sooner or later, it will be announced. I am more surprised because I told John to arrest Aysel tomorrow, not today. If she was arrested this afternoon, John should have notified me about the change in plan.Vincent doesn't know about my plan and he was here all through so he can't be the one who arrange

    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.

    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
