EMILY'S POVLiam was calling me his wife again, and strangely, I suddenly liked the name.“Emily woke up. It's just the alcohol working" I chant in my head like a lullaby.Liam took three steps towards me, closing the gap between them as he cornered me to the wall.“What are you doing here looking all ravishing like a dessert," Liam asked and his breath fell on the shell of my lips.“Oh God," I thought as I gazed at him with my amber orbs. “How could you wear this type of dress after my warning, sweet?" Liam said with contempt in his voice. It felt as if he was trying hard to hold back himself but I wasn't getting myself either.“You don't own me, Liam. I can wear whatever I want and..." whatever I was going to say got swallowed back when Liam suddenly shook his head while his hand grazed my exposed thigh like an electric shock.“I didn't say you could wear this and let a man hold you like that; what do you want people to say about you?"A gasp escaped my lips when his hand suddenly
I ran to the VIP section to get my phone and small purse. There was no sign of Chelsea in where I left her but I want to believe she has probably left.Retrieving my purse on the table, I walked towards the entrance of the Clubhouse as far as my leg could take me. The loud music didn't stop blaring hard against my ears with every step I took. I want to believe, Liam wouldn't come after me. He can just spend the night here and pretend as if he didn't see me.I will also do the same. When I got outside the clubhouse, my head buzzed, almost spinning and I had to place my hand on the wall for support.Taking a deep breath in, I walked towards the roadside to take a taxi. The alcohol I mistakenly took had intoxicated me but I need to get home as soon as possible. I don't want to hurt my baby. However, it feels as if I already spent more than four hours inside the club and there was no sign of any taxi coming my way.Frustrated, I sucked the inside of my cheek before a car suddenly pulled
For a moment I thought Liam was kidding but this man was not fucking joking. Infact, Liam meant every word he said. His hand pulled the dress down from my collarbone and I jumped in fright, creating more space between us.”Are you fucking serious right now? I don't want you touching me" I yelled as tears streamed down my cheeks. I have vowed not to be weak in front of Liam or anyone again but then my emotions took the better of me as tears trickled down my cheeks. Maybe I expected Liam to suddenly back away, giving me the privacy I want but Liam didn't. The truth is I was scared and I was happy when I saw him but a part of me was annoyed to see Liam among his friends while strippr dancing among them. I was actually Infuriated but there was nothing I could do.Liam only walked towards me, closing the distance between us and I swallowed the lump at the back of my throat.Liam lifted me up the floor in a bridal style whileI kept on hitting his chest.“Let me go!"“Get your hands off
After dropping the call I had with Chelsea, I made my way outside after having my bath. I was already dressed up, waiting for Thierry to approach me when I noticed Theirry was not in sight.There was no sign of him standing outside with the guards, which made my brows furrow until I heard the echoing footsteps behind me.”Where is Thierry?" I asked Liam who was dressed in a gray suit with his raven black hair falling on his forehead.“I told you he would be sacked if he failed to drive you to wherever you go. It was a promise you made to me to be accountable for his actions," Liam explained in his deep voice as he closed the distance between us.My lips parted as air escaped my lungs because Liam was fucking right about what he said. I promised to let Thierry take me everywhere, but I broke that promise first.“If you want to punish anyone, then punish me. He did nothing wrong," I said; my voice was a little bit calm, but internally, I knew Liam wouldn't let this go just like that.Li
Thierry drove the car out of the mansion and my gaze flickered between the road side and my phone. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be pissed right now or laugh because Liam's behavior was uncalled for. It was very hard for me to believe I actually fell for Liam's trick which prompted me to ask Thierry a important question.“Thierry, how did you know Liam?” I asked while browsing through my phone.Thierry looked at me through the rear mirror and our eyes made contact. I was actually expecting him to look at it because this is the first time I will ever ask Thierry a question relating to his and Liam's relationship.“Mr. Liam saved me from a group of loan shark thugs that threaten to sell part of my body if I refuse to pay my father's debt” Theirry said in a detached tone and I knew there was more to his story.“I met Mr. Liam one day when I was getting beaten up by the roadside. He took care of the men like a hero and hired me as his guard” Thierry concluded and I couldn't help but
“One more thing," Laura added and stopped. I raised my eyebrows at her, waiting to hear whatever she was going to spit out of that filthy mouth.“Are you still going to divorce him?" Laura asked and I connected the dots. She is talking about Liam and me. Is she that happy with the news with the hope that Aysel will finally get to be by Liam's side?“We both know you are not worthy of Liam and I am glad you decided to leave him," Laura added and adjusted the bag in her hand. Laura's face was still young and pretty as always. It makes me wonder if she is ever getting old because of her young features.Despite her beauty, she is just ugly inside and her character is rotten.“Liam can finally go back to Aysel, and I believe Aysel will produce good children compared to your barren self," Laura snickered with a smirk on her face as she waved her hand in the air.“Mum!" Aysel chipped in like a good child. ”I am not even pregnant for him yet," She whined, pouting her cheeks as she held on
I don't know how I am going to go to the hospital when Theirry is still in the car.“Is there anything we can do about Thierry?" Chelsea asked as if reading my mind.“I will just tell him I need to go somewhere with you and we will be back in a few minutes," I said and Chelsea agreed to go with my plan.When we got outside, I walked straight to Chelsea's car. Knocking on the door, Thierry rolled down the glass window and bowed his head before raising it.“I need to go somewhere with Chelsea and we will be back in thirty minutes," I said, but Thierry tensed up in the seat. “I mean it. 30 minutes," I added.“Alright, ma'am," he replied.“I will take my car," Chelsea said and I followed her.After leaving Chelsea Boutique with her car, we drove straight to the hospital. Ezekiel, Chelsea's brother, already told me to do some tests, which I did.I and Chelsea sat on the chair in his office when he came in a few minutes later.“Hope I didn't delay you much?" Ezekiel asked and I and Chelsea
When I walked closer to the entrance, I wasn't expecting Liam to have company but the moment I pulled the door open, Liam was actually on call with someone.Silly me! I thought he was with Aysel or maybe Aysel already found her way home. I shut the door and walked past Liam who stood beside the window.“Where are you going, Emily?" Liam asked as he dropped the phone to his side. He was already done with the call. Liam walked towards me and stood beside the couch in the living room.“Where does it seem like I am going? To my room, of course," I retorted in a cold tone and gripped the bag in my tight.“I told you about the event we need to attend. You should get ready," Liam said, and I blinked my eyes at him with my eyebrows raised.”Oh, sure," I murmured before looking at him. “But you tricked me into believing that Thierry will get sacked," I said more as a statement than a question.Liam smiled as he glided his hand through the material of the couch in slow motion. ”I didn't actua
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
I was about to make an excuse to leave and get some fresh air when Liam suddenly took a step towards me. I took two steps back but he wasn't going to back down. I kept walking back, not knowing what was wrong, until Liam pinned me to the wall, and a smile graced his lips.”Why are you so easy to read?” I tried to protest, but he just smiled and kept dancing."I want to go and meet Vincent. Stop trying to fuck with me," I insisted, trying to push him away, but he held my hands and placed them on his shirt.But Liam just laughed, and his one of hands circled my waist. “When did you see him?l," he asked, his eyes glinting with amusement.Just as I was starting to get frustrated, the music stopped, and a man was standing on the stage.Liam released me but he didn't let go of my hand. The man standing on the stage is actually one of the men in this party. He was also wearing a mask. He pulled it off and everyone roared and cheered when they realised it was the Famous CEO of Deleesh Mobile
Liam's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the girl who had just come in, but then pulse his lips, relaxing his back on the chair as he finally remembered who it was.He always has that expression on his face when he is sure of something. I try to remain calm as I take in her appearance. She had a baby face with stunning brown eyes. She used mascara and red lipstick on her lips. For real, she looks pretty.“Come on Liam. Stop acting as if you didn't know me when I fucking had a crush on you for good eight years." She said and turned her head sideways to take a better look at me.“This is Georgia," she said, turning around to show her eight figures to Liam's face. The girl sure has boldness and I love that.“Maybe I changed a little bit but you should still recognize me. I am Maddox's sister for crying out loud" She added and flashed him a smile.I thought Liam would treat her as a ghost when he suddenly took a sip from the coffee I made for him.“Welcome back, Georgia. What can I do for
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.

"Emily, don't try to move," Vincent said, gently placing a hand on my shoulder. "You need to rest." He said, and Vincent's expression changed slightly, but he didn't say a word.I wish I had told Vincent this was my plan but I know he would have stopped me if he knew this was my plan after all.”Are you okay?" Vincent asked and I nodded my head, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. But as I looked at Liam, I felt a surge of annoyance.Who even told him he had the right to be here? When I looked at him closely, He looked stressed, but it must be because of Aysel, who would be punished for what he did.“Where is she? Is she awake?” I heard the familiar voice of Laura as she stormed in. ”Emily. Thank God you are okay. Aysel will never push you down. You should try to remember. They are trying to ruin my daughter's life,” Laura said, like the typical person she is. She will never change which is a very good sign that her daughter took after her.”Talk to me, Emily m, you aren't sayi

20 minutes late later, I arrived at Dad company. Chris didn't come out of the car but his eyes was actually focused on me.However, I acted as if I didn't see him and instead, I walked inside the building. Taking the elevator, I arrived at Aysel's floor. I saw one of the staff passing by and I took the cue to ask question from her. ”Please can you show me where Aysel office is?" I asked her and she pointed her finger towards the direction she was coming from.“Ms Aysel office is actually down the floor." The girl replied and I nodded my head.“Oh, thank you" I murmured and walked down the tiled floor, trying to look for Aysel office.When I get to the last door, I knocked gently wondering why everything seems to have change.Perhaps, Dad actually took his time to renovate the building again. I was here last five years ago. I would have love to go and visit him but I don't want him to delay my stay well which could actually tamper with my plan. I knocked on the door and push it open.
Yawning softly, my phone rang and I checked who the caller was. It was my baby Chelsea. My head hurt slightly but I managed to pick up her call.”Hello, Emily; since you will be going to work today, I decided to help take Xavier to school.." Chelsea said from the other end and I smiled, my heart full. Xavier is okay and that is all that matters.”Wait, you won't even greet me good morning." I teased Chelsea and I imagined her expression in my head.She will be frowning right now before she finally smiles.”Well, you should know already that Xander is my priority, Emily." Chelsea said and her words brought a smile to my lips.”God Chelsea. You are such a traitor. Either way thank you for taking care of him" I thanked Chelsea.“You don't have to do that Emily. Now, get prepared for work before Xavier catches me talking to you. That boy didn't stop asking you" Chelsea responded.“That is why Xavier is my son Chelsea. Let me quickly take my bath and get going my love," I said and took of
