Emma parked the car at the side of the road and then walked towards the house number provided to her by Lilian and spotted her soon enough at the door with an old man beside her.“Da Da, meet Emma Bailey… The woman I told you about.” Lilian held her grandfather’s arm to give him support and then introduced him to Emma.“Oh, she is the one.” Her grandfather looked at her with wide eyes and then gave her a polite grateful smile.“Come, please… Come inside.” The old man took her inside his home and Emma followed quietly.“Lilian told me everything regarding your case and my son’s accident. I tried to find something and there is one thing I got from my son’s belongings.”The old man spoke and then Lilian brought a file for him.“The prisoner named Henry Ford escaped from the prisoner with his partner once, at that time, police traced his fingerprints in the prison. My son has a copy of his fingerprints. If… by any chance, that man was the same as you are claiming he is.Then his fingerpri
Henry was immersed in a meeting when his right hand, Bradley informed him about Emma.His brows lifted in displeasure when he heard him completely and his blood started to boil.As soon as he left Emma alone, she again reunited with her ex-husband, her lover, Jacob.He gritted his teeth so harshly that all the people present in the meeting could hear it and gave each other a silent, confusing look.Henry tried his best to not be bothered by Emma and Jacob’s thoughts but he couldn’t focus on the meeting when he knew that back in Staten Land, Emma was fucking her lover in her house.Their moans echoed in his ears and their entangled bodies came into his eyes. He clenched the pen tightly in his hand and at one point it broke from his grip.CLICK“The meeting is dismissed.”Impulsively, Henry stood from his place and rushed out of the office.Immediately he ordered Bradley to prepare the jet and send him back to Staten Land.He needed to see Emma and punish her for fucking another man in
“Yes, Boss…”One of Henry’s guards responded to the call and immediately straightened as he responded positively to his Boss’s commands.“What is it?” After the call ended, the other men asked curiously.“What else could it be…?” The man shrugged in response.“Huh, the same woman?” The other raised his brow.And the first one nodded his head in response.HA HA HAThe other man laughed in mock, “She has completely f**ked our boss’s brain.”The first one couldn’t help but laugh with him too but soon he sobered up, afraid that someone would listen to them mocking their boss.“Hey, stop laughing… That woman is the Boss's woman now… She is no ordinary…” The first one smacked the other’s arm to make him stop laughing out loud and taking the other's attention.“Yeah, truly, she is no ordinary…” The other man’s laughter stopped and his eyes shone with lust.“Hey… don’t even think about it… If the Boss would know what we were thinking about his woman he is going to blast our minds…”The first
“Are you sure you want to leave?” Henry circled his arms possessively on Emma’s waist before she was able to pick up her bag and belongings.“I have already taken a week off,” Emma tried to argue.“If it’s about money, I can provide that to you.” Henry offered softly, making her stunned.Whatever happened last night was just a cover for her, but Henry's actions were an indication that he has started to think in a different way for her.Is he indirectly telling her that he would take care of her?Of his enemy?Emma looked bewildered by his words.“I am not a slut whom you pay for the sex, Henry… Don’t forget we had a deal…” Emma reminded him with a stern face which made Henry’s affection and sweetness disappear in an instant, changing into his dark, ruthless self.“Yes, I remember everything…”With that low howl of wrath, he left the apartment and Emma heaved a sigh in relief, if Henry would force her to leave her job then she probably would get no chance of convincing him.Whatever He
Emma was writing a resignation letter with a heavy heart, it’s been two days since the incident of her public scandal with Henry happened.She stared at the paper for a while, not knowing if by doing that she would get back her lost grace.Then making up her mind, she scribbled on the paper distastefully.RING … RINGSeeing the caller ID, Emma frowned in displeasure, she didn’t want to see Henry’s face at all knowing that he is after all the bad things that happened in her life including her resignation.Reluctantly, she answered his call.“Hello…”“Come to my clubhouse,” Henry ordered straightly and then ended the call in a flash.BEEPEmma stared at her phone stunned.She then folded the paper neatly and kept it inside a file.She then disinterestedly started to get ready for her visit to the nightclub.She wondered what new punishment Henry had brought for her this time.****Emma entered the nightclub with a dull face, but as she scrutinized the place her eyes widened from the sho
Henry took Lilian to a private booth, and she followed him with eager eyes.He took his place and gestured for Lilian to sit.“It's difficult to imagine a woman like you in here as a waitress,how come you’re here, Lilian?”Henry asked, he remembered very well the way Lilian praised him and also admired his business tactics.A woman with a sharp mind like her working in the nightclub as a waitress, especially in his club. He found it difficult to believe at first.“Uhm… A friend of mine works here… I am just filling in tonight actually as her replacement.” Lilian explained with a soft smile and Henry’s pupils relaxed on her.He leaned his body back on the sofa and watched Lilian with interest in his eyes.“You’re a kind friend, Lilian…” He praised making Lilian blush but then his words dropped her smile in an instant, “and a stupid one, too…”“Oh, how come?” Lilian looked at him puzzled.“Do you know what kind of things happen in this nightclub, Lilian?” Henry asked and Lilian shrugge
COUGH … COUGHWhen Lilian reached close to the door, a cough behind her startled her.Immediately, she dropped her bag and returned to the bed to check on the person.Just at that time, Henry opened his eyes, appearing to be disoriented for a moment.Lilian gave him a sweet smile and then handed him a glass of water. Henry took the glass.However, he didn’t drink water instead he stared at Lilian with unspeakable emotions.“Why are you not sleeping?”Cleverly, Henry asked her and she looked at him nervously.“Uhm… I was having a headache, actually…” Lilian came with an excuse and Henry’s eyes narrowed in the dark."So, I felt like going out and getting some medicine for myself." She explained."For that, you don't need to leave this room, Lilian..." Henry told her with a sinister smile.“There is something I have which could cure your headache actually…” Henry offered in his dark deep voice sending goosebumps into Lilian’s skin.“Uhmm… what…?” Lilian asked hesitatingly.BOOMAnd the n
After finding Lilian in a normal and safe state. Emma sighed in relief and before she would be able to ask Lilian to leave, Lilian opened her mouth and her words surprised Emma completely.“Miss Bailey… Is everything alright?”Lilian looked at Emma in a way as though she was a stranger to her.“Uhmm… Yes… You… What’re you doing here…?”Emma looked at Lilian in surprise, her eyes slowly shifting from her to Henry.“Oh, you forgot me, Miss Bailey… We met at the seminar….” Lilian told her to maintain the blank look on her face.“I do remember that…” Emma forced her words, her eyes were blinking from nervousness, she knew very well that Henry was watching and listening to their every word very carefully.“So then you remember that I am a big admirer of Mr. Cooper’s work techniques… Today, I was filling for one of my friends and accidentally, I met Mr. Cooper…What a great coincidence…”Lilian exclaimed, her eyes shining with admiration making Emma frown.“I am so grateful for Mr. Cooper f
