For the next two days, I remained isolated from everything. My friends, my boyfriend, high school, I was not allowed to do what made me happy. The only thing that still gave me a little joy was during my piano lessons with Rayan. He has this deep, sad look and I know he must suspect something, and I thank him for not talking about it. In my misfortune, I still don't want to remember that I live in a prison made by my mother I miss Michaël as much as possible but he promised to fix everything and until that happens, I don't want to fall into despair. But that doesn't stop me from really missing him a lot. I was playing when Rayan took out a flier from a music contest in the city of Central and handed it to me. "I don't know if you'll be allowed to participate but it would be a good way to start building a reputation for yourself. This competition is for teenagers aged 12 to 20 and participants can play any instrument. Emma, I will be honest, you are the most gifted student I
Aden came to sit next to me and he put his hand on my shoulder. He looked sad and seemed to want to calm me down. "I knew something was wrong, after you didn't come on the first day, Carla got mad and we decided to come and see what was going on. We tried to introduce ourselves as your friends but the employees made us understand that you were ill and that you could not receive visitors. The other pervert and I knew it was a lame excuse and I decided to watch for any opportunity to come and check it out, and I was right." I sighed, my mother is exaggerating, she wants to cut me off from everyone like that. I can't believe she would go that far and yet she did. ** Yes I'm cut off from everyone like that and I'm not sure she'll do it just for the week as she told me, something tells me she wants to keep me at her mercy for a long time ** At least until her death, but that will be enough to separate me definitively from the people I love. "So she's also depriving you of seeing M
When Michaël left Amanda Clark's house, he had one thing in mind: to get Emma to leave as soon as possible. But he knows his girlfriend, no matter how much she suffers she will continue on this same path in silence if necessary so as not to cause harm to others. But this empathetic character is her biggest flaw, she doesn't see when she's being played with and acts for others without taking into account her feelings. Either he's there to protect her and that's what he's going to do. He has to give Emma an important reason to leave this toxic environment with no regrets. He made a call to Fabian giving him the details of the situation. However, he asked him not to say anything yet to his fiancée, which the man accepted with agreement. Fabian didn't want to bother Jeanne with guesswork, they needed proof before confronting Amanda, if Jeanne finds out now, she'll show up at her mother's house, make a scene and take Emma with her without asking for her rest. And Amanda has certain
" SO?" Jeanne stood up and gently took Fabian's hand. The latter stood up as he circled Jeanne's hips. “Tomorrow morning, we will go see this famous doctor so that he explains to us what we need to know” Michaël nodded and just as he was about to give the couple some privacy, Jeanne spoke again. "Mica... did you have to speak with Emma in the meantime?" Michaël smiled disappointed when he already felt an impossible lack. Jeanne understood without him having to answer her and this accentuated Jeanne's anger. At the moment when her sister could have enjoyed a normal teenage life, this woman had to come and ruin everything. She doesn't care what answers this doctor will give her, why he seems to be intentionally poisoning Amanda, and if he is doing it for a particular reason. The only thing that matters to her is Emma and she's going to put things in their place. Emma, by her side no matter what happens to Amanda. "Alright, I'll go now. Take care of yourself" The couple nod
Michaël turned to find Fabian trying to calm Jeanne down. She was breathing hard and he understood her. It was also the first time he witnessed this kind of scene but since he was a child, he had to control his emotions and this kind of admittedly shocking thing could not disturb him that much. Especially when he knew who was behind it all. "Baby... breathe slowly... Come on..." Jeanne listened to her fiancé as Michaël picked up the phone to call the police to report a murder. Jeanne couldn't believe it, how did this situation take such a turn? She closed her eyes as she decided to pull herself together. Now is not the time to flinch. " You're feeling good? we can go home so you can rest” "No…I'm fine now. Let's go see this woman after the police arrive, everything is fine." Fabian nodded before leading Jeanne to the couch behind them. He then got up putting gangs he keeps in his pockets and moved forward to the deceased's drawers. "What are you doing Fabian?" Michael
"Fabian, I'm going down here. I have to go home immediately" I looked at Michael not understanding his eagerness to leave. Finally, I would have thought that he would spend more time with me since we haven't seen each other for many days but when I was almost exultant for a moment alone with him, he had to go already. I don't want to play the intrusive and capricious girlfriend but I wish he would spare me more of his time. I lowered my head making a sulky pout that did not go unnoticed in the eyes of all the occupants of the car, especially Michaël. "I'll be back tonight, I promise...please don't get mad...come on, give me a smile...sweetheart?" I turned my face away from him staring out the window as my cheeks flushed. I was already embarrassed enough to behave like that, so the way Michael tries to calm me down makes me feel uncomfortable. "Emma..." He called me again and I just put my hands up to sign. ** Go ahead** I didn't have enough courage to look at him with the e
Michaël came back the same evening as promised and found Aden and Carla with me. The two ran to see me as soon as they learned that I had left my mother's house. Carla had even told me that she had come to see me but she had been denied access. This shows how much my mother wanted to isolate me and make me experience the loneliness that was mine some time ago. These friends that I made after so many years of crying over my fate, I will never forgive her. I shook my head as I thought of Fabian. In the beginning, when Aden contacted me to ask how I am and I told him what happened to me, he said he would come to see me immediately after class, and as the perverse Carla, as he affectionately called her, was by his side, she said she would come too. It felt weird inviting friends to Fabian's house when I hadn't even seen what it looked like yet. What if I made him uncomfortable? He probably understood it as he spoke. "Don't worry Emma...I bought a big house for my family so do
Mira was watching what was happening from a distance. Of course, what Sophie was saying about Jeanne and Emma was false. She even feels bad and above all guilty for having encouraged her aunt on this false track but she didn't know what she could do to make her perfect life come back as before. She could not bear that everything escaped her, that everyone she cared about turned away from her. So she left her aunt to make her conclusions. Jeanne and Emma are the heiresses to the second-largest fortune in town, but her aunt doesn't need to know that. She looked at Fabian and felt fear overwhelm her. She had never seen him so angry, which shows how much he must love Jeanne. It made her a little jealous, even when her father humiliated her, Fabian had never been so angry, so what she thinks is true, he loves Jeanne more than her. Yet her late mother made him promise to always take care of them, but today he breaks his promise. He put another driver in her service when it was his
Marriage, if someone had spoken to me about that a few more weeks ago, I would have started to cry, regretting having lost Michaël. But now as I'm in this room waiting for the bride's entrance music to play, I feel like I'm in a dream. I've had time to fix all my wrongs on the people I've hurt and now I can say with certainty that I'm ready to live the life that comes my way. After talking to Charlotte, I went to see Cherry. I had been so unfair to her by not allowing her to get to know each other, yet it was her dearest wish for two reasons. I am the woman his best friend is in love with and I am the best friend of the woman she is in love with. It was a bit funny these relations between us, just to say that I occupied an important place in her life without even having already spoken to her. So I went to their apartment, they were living together and because of Cherry's career, they had decided to have a common-law relationship even though a baby was in discussion. They wante
The next morning, Aden was at our doorstep. As soon as he saw me he jumped on me, lifting me up and down. I laughed at his ardor before he dropped me off. But at the same time, I heard a moan of pain as Aden complained. We looked to find Kyle frowning as he just punched Aden. "But what's your problem?" "You're the guy who was supposed to be received by the Emir I think, Aden Logan if I'm not mistaken... but who allowed you to touch my mother? You should keep your hands on you, mom belongs to Dad...” Aden felt a vein pulsate on his forehead, this rascal, he looks like his cunt father, both are so harmful. "Who are you to my mother?" Aden remained silent, he looked at Emma and smiled, he could have teased this brat and at the same time provoked his father by saying that he is the one who could have been their father, but good times when he liked to be petty are gone, now he's more mature and he's given up on the idea of hooking up with Emma one day. He stroked Kyle's head d
Indeed, I had never had an ultrasound so I couldn't imagine that I was expecting two children instead of one. But listening to Michaël I could only realize the baseness of my character as a mother. I had promised myself that I would never do as my mother did, which was to abandon my child, but that's exactly what I did. And I think I did worse because I disowned him, making him cry. My jealousy and anger kept me from thinking and I made horrible and unfair decisions. Manuel grew up without his mother, I understand his speech the day before. I was pathetic, I don't know how to be forgiven. I looked up at my boys on the bed and saw Manuel holding out his hands to me. " Mom..." I sobbed running to him as I hugged him, almost smothering him in my embrace. I've been so unfair, I don't know if I could ever make it up to you but I would do anything to erase the pain of my absence from my baby's heart. I'm going to be the mother he's been missing all this time. I beg your pardon
Kyle hung up before seeing his father bring him a meal tray. He made a face not understanding this silly smile before sighing remembering that it was his parent. "Hello my prince" " Good morning" Michael sighed, it won't be easy at all. "I brought you your breakfast, are you coming?" “I can feed myself you know” “I know it but I want to make sure you take your medicine” "Do I need to take it all the time? Frankly" Michaël smiled, he betrayed himself so easily, it was so adorable. “You have persistent asthma. For this, your pediatrician has asked that you follow a controlled treatment, which means that you will always have to take medication to avoid having severe attacks..." Michaël's eyes widened, if Manuel's meds are here then he won't have taken them since yesterday which means... " Shit" "Don't swear in front of a kid, I'll beg you" Michaël got up rubbing his hair before sighing. "Tell me where your brother is" Kyle almost choked before looking at his father. "W
I sat watching Kyle diligently eat his vegetables wondering what this drastic change was. My boy hates vegetables more than anything, but this seems to have always been his favorite meal. **Baby do you like it that much?** “Yes Mom, you are the best cook in the world” I blushed when my usually reserved son had just paid me such a nice compliment. ** Thank you, my heart..** Manuel had red cheeks, his mom is exactly as his father had described her. She is beautiful and sweet, and he also finds her cute. He wanted to have these magnificent freckles on his face but he is already considered the prettiest boy in his school so he'll settle for that degree of beauty. "Hey mum... do you have a boyfriend?" I nearly choked as my son looked at me seriously. He seemed to be waiting for that answer as if his life depended on it, where did that come from? Manuel wanted to be reassured that his mother remained faithful to his father despite the distance and the separation, not that he would
Kyle sat in Manuel's room wondering when his dad...their dad was coming back. He looked at his twin's bedside table and saw the photo of their younger parents. Emma who looked at Michaël with tenderness and the latter who seemed to dedicate a cult of adoration to the girl. He sighed, the man seemed to adore their mother but why did they separate to the point where his mother left in a panic without even imagining that she had made twins and was therefore abandoning a child? Something must have happened, Manuel doesn't know the reason for this separation either, the only thing he told him was that each time his father answered him that it was his fault that his mother was gone. Because he was not up to her. It's way too vague, he needs to know the real details, but if it turns out that it was really because his dad is a bad guy, he'll just find a simple way to protect their mum, and no more hurt his little brother. Manuel also needs their mother, it hurt him to see his brother c
" Dad?" Michael looked at his son not wanting to give him false hope. He knows how much he misses his mother and how much he would like to find his brother, but he just can't tell him that he is going to find his mother and brother without any real hope. So he'll just keep his excitement to himself and go see what's going on in Tartar. "I just got an important call from Tartar, I'm going to have to go on a business trip tonight and..." "Can I come with you?" Michaël bit his lip, each time he had to make this kind of trip, he always took his son with him but this time, he is afraid that Manuel cannot stand the extremely hot climate of Tartar and that he will relapse. Manuel has been in fragile health since birth and he always made sure he got the best treatment. He is not sure that Tartar will have excellent technical platforms like here so he hesitates. "Please Dad..." He doesn't like it when his son looks at him with those big lamb eyes, he can't refuse him anything. "Good
The room was gloomy, all the employees around the meeting table had lowered their heads in fear of their president's cold gaze as he read the pile of documents in front of him. He had put a hand to his cheek studying the data presented to him as the people around waited fearfully for him to speak. He was known to be ruthless and was quick to get rid of people he found unnecessary. He was nicknamed the big devil, nobody wanted to attract his attention, and they did not know what he could do as he was unpredictable. He was only 27 years old but he imposed a charisma and an overwhelming aura so much that no one could retort at his word. The meeting had been going on for four hours and many hadn't even had lunch yet, but they weren't allowed to complain. He doesn't like noise and hates people complaining. This is Michaël Keller, CEO of the Keller-Clark group. Indeed, a few years earlier, Jeanne had had enough of all this business, especially since Victor had decided to join his fa
Jeanne and Fabian arrived with their two children. Fabian was carrying the baby, a little boy and Joshua was holding his mother's hand excited to see Emma's children, but especially Emma. "Ah, I can't believe my baby has become a mother in her turn" "Indeed and to say that she was expecting twins..." “Her fiancé is a pervert” "Honey, who teaches you such bad words?" " I am very clever" Jeanne sighed in front of her son while Fabian just smiled. They arrived in the hospital room finding Michaël in all his states and no trace of Emma, nor the babies “Mica?” Michaël turned away tearfully as he looked at Jeanne guiltily. A few minutes earlier, after reassuring himself that his second son, who was born more fragile than the other, had been examined by the pediatrician, he returned with him to rest him in his crib with his twin brother. But to his great misfortune, Emma was no longer in the room and neither was their son. He panicked seeing papers on the bed, when he became
