HER EMERGENCY GROOM His plans
Angela...I was too late, as usual. Mother was always a step ahead of me.I plop on the bed. How did she found out that such document even exists?Too tired to start tearing up or hurt my brain with thoughts of how I hate her, I just fell asleep.The next day, I woke up to my mysterious phone ringing.I picked the call, hesitantly."Am I speaking with miss Wilson?" A male voice penetrates out of the phones speaker."Hm.""I am barrister Collins. I was your father's lawyer when he was alive and-""So why are you calling now after all these years?" I didn't wait for him to finish his words.He sighed. "I'm calling you because you just fulfilled the first requirements left by your father. Can we meet in person and talk?"Requirements?What requirements?"You needed to talk to someone before, surely his lawyer would be of much help." I concluded in my head."Sure. Let's meet in an hour time." I utter then hang up.I did the basic cleanliness hygiene and dress up in an oversized leather

I was about to step out of the opened door when barrister called on to me."Miss Angela?"I throw my head back at me, and he smiles, folding his big arms on his broad chest.My guess is that he is been frequenting the gym and he looks a lot younger for his age."Did you considered what he wants when you were making a decision?"My brows arched, "who? Father?""Mr Winslow, your husband. You don't seem to want a kid but he might?""What? Uhmm..Barrister, I am sure that is the least of his plans." I forced a chuckle but stopped when I saw the stern look on his face."Still, you might want to take on the second requirements since it's a prerequisite for the third stage anyways." He remarked.I heaved out a sigh, before blinking."I'll think about it.""Nothing much to think about. Your father held you in one of his high hopes. It's time you make him see that he was right to have put his trust in you.""Who? My father?" I almost throw off in fits of laughter."It might not have seemed like

ABIGAIL...The servings of different dishes illuminates under the chandeliers hanging down the restaurant's ceiling.We stare at each other for minutes before I spoke up, catching along with the violinist heightening the tune he was playing."Why do you all appear so rotten?" My eyes move to the foods on the table."If you feel too mighty to greet an elder, you should accept their kind gesture then.I heard you like shrimps so I got the kitchen prepare them specially for you."Hr gave the food s look before chuckling."It's the opposite. Your info must have developed a bug."My jaw tightened before I release a smile to mask my dissatisfaction."Family bonds is really unbreakable. Nothing has been finalised yet but we are pretty much the same. We want and chase after similar things." I pick my words slowly.His eyes twitch before he pulled the bridge of his nose."Clarifications will be appreciated.""You're really clueless, aren't you?" I smirk."I...I really tried to stop her, I..di

Angela...I throw a "don't tell him" look at Vanessa and she nodded, going ahead to openly demonstrate zipping her mouth shut.I grunt."I definitely heard someone saying they want a baby.."he drawled, moving inside.Nervousness cuts through my spines as I chuckle, giving Vanessa a pleading look."I...was on a call?" Her head tug to the side before she looks at me.I squint my eyes, shaking my head.That was definitely not a good lie.When i saw she couldn't be of much help, I sigh then look at him."Fine, I was asking her if you'd like a baby.." i blurt before shrinking my face away in disgrace.He spits out the water in his mouth."Wha-at?""Didn't even remember such exists."I sighed. "Yeah? I was only asking and no, I don't want one. I am always this curious." I gulped hard before standing up and walking out awkwardly.Shit, the abrupt heat in there was insane.When I settled in for the night, my cellphone dings with a message from barrister - he has just sent me the address.I n

"You're Angela Wilson?" The manager of the store assess my physical appearance.I dragged my nod and he pinch his nose.Why does everyone look so nervous about something I am not aware of?"I..did heard you were going to work here but I still need the chairwoman's word. And.." his eyes linger on my shoes."Never mind. You can...hover around for today. I already contacted her but..""But she is my mother?" I grinded my teeth in annoyance."Clearly, yea, clearly...she is your mo..mother but we.. still need to follow what has to be followed at work, don't we?I trust you to understand since you would be more familiar with keeping family and work separate.." he stuttered.I tokk in a deep breath in."What are you on about?" Someone else came around. He looked at me before staring at the manger."Is she a customer, what is the issue?""No, absolutely no...she..she is the company's heiress. She is to start working here today as you've said but we haven't heard from the chairman so..I was t

I took in a deep breath in before trying to find something... anything at all.I could feel others' eyes on me too.Christ, why the heck did they have to be coming for the meeting now?Wait.."Are you guys the one proposing the collaboration or them?""Them, of course. That's why they're coming down here." Billie responded, throwing her shoulders up in the air."Hey Billie, get off her tail. She hasn't fully settle in yet." Maria spoke.Her desk was in the front..the only one there, and this gives her the chance for her eyes to run around and catch whoever is slacking off."Shoot, I... didn't have the intention to make her uncomfortable... just asking for tips." Billie puffs out "That's cheating." Maria said with a stern gaze."No, miss Maria.. we're marketing department so there's nothing like that. We draw strategies from different companies, individuals, product, emotions..." She sighed loudly.Miss Maria?"Really?" Maria weighed her words before nodding."Okay then. But that does

We were all seated in the meeting room, the other from Winslow's company facing us and their eyes seem to be particularly fond of me. I blink, looking everywhere but them. Janice seems to notice my uneasiness as she clears her throat. "Can...we start, now?" "Fvck, that's my line." i heard Billie rumble before she stood up. "Yes, please. It is nice to have you here, Mrs Winslow." The one who looks like their leader commented. I almost blurt "do you know me?" until I remember our wedding was one weird one...and the news about it is still everywhere.. "Besides, how could they not know the wife of their boss?" Janice whisper in my ears and I chuckle, looking into her eyes. I think I'll be dumping my other self now that I've found her. She always get me, understand me, what I will say, or do.. everything!! Her lips tries to form in a smile but she quickly tighten it, sniffing and looking away from me, suddenly recollecting she was supposed to be angry at me. It would

WINSLOW...I check the time, it is time to go for lunch.I relax back on the chair, folding my arms."It is so hard working, isn't it?" "I didn't hear your footsteps. You've improved this time." I look up to see a worried look on his face."What's with that look? Don't tell me it's still about what-""No, boss. The marketing department went to company for the meeting they had on collaboration.""Do I have to hear little reports now?" I scoffed.He sighed. "Guess who they found?"I circle my index finger around my eye, tired of this quiz.I didn't get any sleep the previous night, which cause a swell underneath my eyes."Who?" My voice was low.He sighed again and I take a deep breath in."I would actually be glad if this was about you cheating on your wife..." He drawled, obviously to get me riled up.My head shot up at him."Your wife was found there and guess what? She's got a little cutie by her side. I barely managed to stop the marketing department from spreading rumors." "An

Angela...I was going to pull the conference off on my own but he had came to knock my door that night and begged for a five minutes talk."He is always saying let's talk! Could he be a turkey that is talkie freak?" My second grunts.I open the door and he nod with a "thanks.""I know I've let you down but still,""You didn't disappoint me, for your information," I corrected and he nods with a long sigh."I know you want to go to the conference alone but can you take me? I'll just stay by your side without saying a word..""I didn't know you had the bodyguard trait in you, I thought you were into business?"I strained my eyes at him."Angela, please can you stop interrupting?" He says with an open palm as if begging for alms."I do have an information I am willing to share only if you agree to take me?"I stare at him for some minutes before saying with a void face."No,""You..you need me. You haven't spoken at a conference before, have you?"He made a point. "Fine. You absolutely c

SIMEON...After having that discussion with the chairwoman of Wilson, I couldn't get the thought off my head.I am always looking for ways to expand my company but, although things had been progressing little by little, I wanted a big change.I was going to discuss this with Winslow, maybe we could talk over some drinks but he refused my invitation to see him.I wasn't expecting much, i knew he was that arrogant.Oir fathers were close, a trio of friends so I wondered why he could be such a snob most times.He had it rough, I had it rough too. We both had to build our castles from the scratch, not inheriting a built one like others.Since he has refused to meet, I had no choice but to meet with Abigail."I knew you will come back," she says, a light smirk gracing her lips."What were you going to do if I didn't xall you here today?" I ask with inquisitive eyes.She draw a sip from her wine before signaling for a waiter.She requested for a plate of dark chocolate.I must say, i am im
HER EMERGENCY GROOM A tiring circle
Janice...Getting home after a long day, I was incredibly tired and wanted nothing but to sleep.I input my apartment passcode and enter, shutting it.My legs weakened at the sight before me. Several bottles of alcohols were on the table and the pillows were on the floor, everything was in a disorganized state.I let out a breath. It would never get old. It's like a circle, one I'm use to getting caught in.I roll my sleeves up, dropping my bag on the couch and packing the bottles one after the other, arranging them in a carton.After tidying up everywhere, I slept off... My senses awakened the next day from bites on my earlobe."Babe.."his breath fan my neck.I roll away from his hold, wanting to get some more sleep but his scent csme to my nostrils again as he scooted closer."Babe, I need money...hm?" He kiss my neckline.I open my eyes, totally forgetting about sleepiness but ready to rant out at this man at how he has totally sucked life out of me!"Money?""Good morning, Jan

MIGUEL..."How do you plan to settle this, boss?" Pierre asks as soon as I came out of the hospital."What about Ellie?" "No news from her yet." He reply."We can only hope she finds a lead in her office." I pinch my nose before going to enter the backseat."Are you leaving her alone here?" He asks ad I look up at the hospital."I don't know, she has her..girl with her, I don't want to interrupt.""Regardless, she is your wife and you... ""I have more pressing matters, Pierre." I snap my fingers at him before he blabs on.I enter the car and he came to the driver's seat, sparing me a look from the rear view mirror."You called me father earlier today.."he had a funny expression on his face.I sighs, resting my head on my chin."Why would I?""You said pere which means father in French when you were rushing to save the miss." He grins."Have you been less busy these days? I have been working my ass off but you seem to have so much time to spare.." I reply sternly and he take his lip

ANGELA...After miss Maria and others left, Janice said she was going to watch over me overnight but I refused because she still has to go to work.After much begging, she finally agrees she would leave after staying an extra hour."Did you see the news yet?" She ask softly as we both sat in the ward, only the mixture of our smell and the curious sound of our hearts were in earshot."Not yet." I responded and she nod."Good. Don't watch it..."she says."I have too. I can't escape it forever." I reply.She seem to think about it for some seconds before nodding."You've grown.."I heard her mutter as she looks at my chest.A breath got stuck in my throat before I stifle a laughter."Hey, what are you talking about it? And stop looking at me passionately like that, it makes me feel you're in love with me." She raise her eyes to the level of mine and bore them into my soul as if she hid a hold in my pupils.I furrowed my brows and she chuckle."I am straight, girl. And oh, I am not marri

MIGUEL...I had called her phone out of panic. I knew she would be disoriented by the speech her mother was giving to the press.Never knew she would be more pained by my betrayal.After trying her number for the fourth time and it says she wasn't picking, I called for fifth time when it says the phone was unreachable.And, it wasn't long before Pierre, the bearer of bad news came forth, shoving a video in my face."She...she threw her bag from the rooftop....she.. she ...she fell..she fell.." he explained out of breaths.I ran out of the office, expecting him to follow me but he stood there, reading comments and rewatching the video again from the commenters' perspectives."Fvck it, Pierre! I am not gonna drive myself!!" I yell at him."Oh!" The laptop slides out of his grip and he ran past me to the basement."Give the keys, I am driving.." I snap my fingers as he made to get into the seat, snatching the keys from him and he jumps out of the car so I could get in.I insert the key
HER EMERGENCY GROOM Jailbreak or hospital-break?
I roll over on the surface, it was soft yet so unsettling.I touch my head, feeling things are a bit of a burden there before I open my eyes, taking in the environment.I stare at the white ceiling, the one I was always met with after several check-ups in the past.I roll to my side and found him staring at me, relief washing over him."How do you feel?" He asks, moving his hand closer to my forehead but I jerk my head back, his hand going into contact with the pillow instead."Why are you here?" I question, trying to recollect my last memory and the one I got was when I fell on the rooftop."I will have the doctor run a check-up, you don't look too well," he says instead, standing up from the chair."Why are you here?" I ask, louder this time and with my heart picking a dangerous race to run.The usual smell of hospital rush into my nostrils and I sigh weakly, trying to control the urge to puke."I..I am sorry.." he goes to say and if it weren't for the migraine, I would have burst
HER EMERGENCY GROOM Tormented again
ANGELA....I step into the room, expecting to see exciting faces welcome me but I was, instead, at the mercy of nervous looks and the evading of my gaze."See? I told you that would be short-lived." My second chimes in my head.My pupils dilates in confusion as they graze over them - I had thought we had hit it off the other day.Janice stood up from her seat before coming to grab me to the rooftop."Janice..." I smile, excited that she gave me face today.Yesterday, she left no time for us to catch up, finding excuses upon excuses...loads of them actually, for her to avoid me.But after the meeting yesterday, I conversed with other workers and they made me feel welcomed."Don't you... don't you dare smile like that," her breath came out ruffle, her pinky finger pointing at me.I tilt my head to the left, my right leg taking a step ahead of the left, smiling again."Whay is up, Janice? Is this still about what happened years ago?Look, I...was helpless back then and I-" i haven't com

ABIGAIL...When I heard from the manager from our second store that he received a message from barrister to process the employment of Angela, I was curious and called him over immediately."It isn't comfortable to pretend to be cool and have breakfast together like this. Why don't we just let the termites in our hearts out?" He said."The last time I ate a braised chicken soup was when Wilson was still alive.I was going to eat in his remembrance today but a piece of news turn the good mood over the fence, and all i taste right now is poison!" I slam the fork in the table.He doesn't seem fazed by me. He had never been. I only managed to chain him down a bit years ago but he had broken lose from my grapple.I grab a napkin, cleaning my mouth with it."Collins, I remember my husband sponsoring your education to law school. You're indebted to this family till your last breath. Although, my husband is gone, that only implies I am your next master so why are you always breaking lose
