**Liam**“Hello? Emelia?” I said on the phone, did she call me by mistake? Who was she with?“I hope you don’t mind me asking this. But why don’t you and she not get along? Is it because of something?” Daniel’s voice came on the phone as I swallowed hard. Did he go into my bedroom> With Emelia?“I have always lived under her shadow. My mother always treated me like an unwanted child. Ever since I was young, She used to abuse me” she replied to him, Wait she was abused? By her mother? I needed to make sure that I get the rest of the conversation“Abuse you? What?”“Not like what you think”“Every single time Eleanor made a mistake, she would cover up for her and let me take the blame for her. I would always get the punishment on her behalf” she said and you could hear her voice almost breaking when she said that.“When my father died, my mum asked me to choose between being her daughter and getting my inheritance” “What do you mean? She asked you to choose?”“Eleanor wanted t
**Emelia**“I love you,” Liam said to me as I swallowed hard looking at him. I didn’t know how to respond to him because for the first time in years someone finally confessed that to me.“I love you so much” he whisper to me after he held me tight. I sighed heavily looking at him. “Don’t ever think that what I do, I do it for Eleanor. I just don’t want you to be hurt by everything that’s happening” He assured me as I nodded my head.‘Okay. I understand” I said and he pulled me closer kissing my forehead.“Can we now have lunch in peace?” He asked me as I shook my head. “I have a better idea” I suggested to him and he nodded his head.“Where are we going?” He asked me as I walked with him to the car. “Just give me your car keys. I will show you” I said to him as he furrowed his eyebrows. “Please just trust me,” I said to him and he sighed heavily handing me the car keys.I got in the car and started it, driving off. “Where are we going?” He asked me and I just kept on driving. “It’s
>>>> **Emelia**After getting home from Lola’s restaurant, Liam had gone back to the office and I went straight home because I wanted to finish walking on the projects I had.I went to the kitchen to get myself some water to drink and I ended up bumping into Daniel. ‘I didn’t know you are back” He said to me as I nodded my head while drinking my water.‘Yes. I came back not long ago.” I said to him and he nodded his head looking at me.“Really? How did it go?” He asked me as I pulled a chair sitting down, ‘I think great? We talked about us and had fun” I smiled at him and he reluctantly nodded his head.“Daniel. I wanted to find out something from you” I said to him and he sat back looking at me as I swallowed hard looking at him not sure what to say or how to start.‘That night when you dropped me off at Liam’s house, you said something to me but you never told me the reason” I said to him as he lowered his head.‘I am sorry, I might have just said it without thinking carefully”
**Eleanor**“Are you okay?” My mother asked me as I nodded my head, she has been worried about me ever since I came back and found that Emelia was very comfortable living as Liam’s wife.“I spoke to Emma, she will be coming through for the fundraiser. It’s very important that-“My mother wanted to say as I looked at her.‘Mum. I know what I am meant to be doing. Don’t worry about it” I said to her and she sighed heavily looking at me.‘How can I not worry when lately you keep on missing things? Is everything okay with you and Arthur?” She asked me and I nodded my head, I didn’t want her worrying about the fundraiser that I usually organize.‘But what’s happening? You have been zoning out lately and haven’t been paying attention to anything” She went on complaining as I turned to look at her and she furrowed her eyebrows.“Arthur has been distant lately.” I started as she nodded her head. ‘I knew something was wrong with you but you kept on insisting that you are fin. Have you been
**Eleanor**Weeks Later.Arthur. Arthur betrayed me and I was so stupid enough to trust him. I stood by the table watching Emelia and Liam talking, he seemed to be taken by her. He would whisper things in her ears and she giggles looking down.‘I know that look” Amy brought me back to reality as she came to stand closer to where I was. I sighed heavily moving away from her and she shook her head.“No. Don’t even think about it” she said as I chuckled turning to look at her, I knew she has an idea of what I wanted to do.“Let her be. We have been through this road already and you know how it ended for you” she said to me as I scoffed gulping down my champagne.“Why do you always overthink things? I am perfectly fine. Don’t worry about it” I mischievously smiled at her grabbing another glass of champagne from the waiter who was passing by.“Let them be. She seems happy. Don’t ruin it for her” She whispered to me as I smiled turning around, I had already made up my mind on what to do.
**Liam** Eleanor makes my blood every time I see her. Every time she’s around I can tell that she is trying to throw herself at me but today she even had to mention Emelia’s name.“H. What’s wrong?” Emelia whispered bringing me back to reality, my yes trialed n her but didn’t say anything. I shake my head because I don’t know what to think after what Eleanor said to me.‘Are you sure everything is okay? What happened? Is something bothering you?” She asks me but just shakes my head. “Don’t worry, it’s nothing. Would you like something else to drink?” I offered her as she nodded her head. “Yes please.” She smiled at me as I nodded my head turned around and walked away,I walked to the table to try and get her a glass of champagne and when I turned around she wasn’t there. I sighed heavily wondering where she could have gone.“Hello, Cousin!” Jason appeared out of nowhere smiling vividly at me as I sighed rolling my eyes, what the heck was he doing here?“I didn’t know you are b
**Liam**Why is it that Emelia can’t tell me anything? I know she has a past with Ricardo or whatever and I am sure she might still have feelings for him but she should have told me something than just that the boyfriend is an opportunist.“Liam?” She called my name and I sighed heavily dropping the cutlery on the table as I wiped my mouth a week now has passed since the event and she didn’t even bother explaining to me what she was doing with that man or what he wanted.I grabbed my phone and stood up from the chair about to walk out. “Liam.” She called my name but I wasn’t going to listen to what she had to say to me. I mean there was a picture of her also kissing that man. What did she think all this meant? I went to the bedroom. I needed to get out of the house just until later when I come back and she is sleeping. I threw on a leather jacket on my grey t-shirt and applied some cologne before heading out of the bathroom.“Liam. Will you please talk to me? You have barely touc
**Emelia** “Let go of me! Don’t you dare touch me?” I protested for Ricardo to let go of me, He just grabbed my and started dragging me outside of the place. “IS everything okay here honey?” Liam asked me as we both stopped in our track turning to him, I swallowed hard looking at him then Ricardo who was holding my hand. I tried to remove my hand from his grip but he held on tight to me “Yes. Um...Um...Um” I stuttered unsure how to respond to him, Ricardo was smirking looking at Liam like he had other plans. “I would appreciate it if you could let go of her hand. I am sure that_” Liam want to say but was quickly cut short by Ricardo “Why don’t you shut the fuck up? This is between me and her” “What the fuck did you say?” Liam walked closer to us but I shook my head standing between them. “Liam>” “What?” “Good! We can…” He wanted to turn around when he hit Daniel, “And who the fuck are you?” He asked Daniel. “Let go of the lady.” Daniel said well composed as I looked at Li
EmeliaI whimpered silently, wiping my tears.I hear keys jingling at the door and I look up as stopped when I heard the door open.“Liam?” I stood up, looking at him as if he wanted to say something, looking at me and I swallowed hard.“Whey. What’s wrong?” He asked, coming closer to me as I shook my head.“Where did you go? I thought you left,” I said in-between sobs “I went to get us something to eat. I just realised that I didn’t get any food,” he said, showing me the bags which he came with.“And what’s this? I thought you left me,” I said to him as he bit his lower lip... “I am sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you, thought maybe it was…”“I am sorry, had to leave,” read the note as he looked at me and he chuckled. ‘It’s not funny. I was so scared that you had left me,” I said to him as he nodded his head coming to me.“I am sorry. I thought I had finished the note to say I went to get breakfast,” he said to me, pulling me in a hug as I hit his chest, pushing him away.“I was scar
**Liam**I pulled off the black dress she was wearing, throwing it to the ground to the ground, exposing her firm breasts. She had no bra under her dress. I smiled at myself and the lace thong that she was wearing was beautiful. I pulled her closer to me as I crushed my lips against hers. I lifted her off the ground as I walked with her to the couch.I unbuckled my trousers, removing them as well as she looked at me. She swallowed hard after she saw my hard-on. I put her in between my legs, and I started kissing her. My kisses trailed down her body, going down to her naval as my hand grabbed her by her waist, pulling her closer to me. I spread her legs open, kissing her thighs as I went down to her naval. I slid my finger between her fold and she moaned softly.Fuck. She’s so wet. I love it.It’s been a long since I have been with her, but I wanted to let her enjoy this moment as well.I forced one finger into her as she moaned. I started to finger her, and she moved her waist. Br
**Emelia” I checked myself in the mirror if I was okay with my outfit. The front of the dress has a scoop neck design with a form fit in the front. No need for a bra... Form-fitting long sleeves. The hem flows down to a floor-length level with Side splits have been placed on the side seams of the garment. The splits go up to the upper thigh level. The back of the dress offers a wonderful contrast. There’s an open-back cut construction of the dress. I smiled at myself, looking at how beautiful I looked.A week ago I spent the entire afternoon chatting with Liam at a rooftop bar talking about us. I had butterfly flutters in my tummy like it was the first time I was meeting him.“What do you think?” I asked mum after I got to the living room. She gasped looking at me.‘You look very beautiful,” She said to me as I pursed my lips together looking at her and then at Amy.“Well, I hope it is enough to seduce him,” I said, and she chuckled, nodding her head “Wait. I have something for y
**Emelia**“Liam?” I asked as he smiled at me, nodding his head.“Hello to you too,” He said to me as I chuckled and swallowed hard looking at him. He smiled at me as he walked over to the desk.“What are you doing here?” I asked him, brushing back my hair as he smiled, nodding his head.“Well, I came to you to look at the new business that’s in town. I am told I might have some competition,” he smirked as I cleared my throat, looking away from him. What was he talking about?“Why are you here?” I asked him, and he sighed, looking at me while reluctantly nodding his head.“Well, I told you,” He said‘Well, you don’t have to worry about it because we are not going after your clients,” I tried to assure him and he nodded his head. “So I hear,” He replied, coming closer to where I was standing as I moved back.“Why are you here?” I asked him again, and he sighed heavily/“I was wondering if you might like to have dinner with me.” He asked me as I furrowed my eyebrows. What was he talkin
**Emelia**Nine months laterI sat back in the back of the courtroom as they brought Eleanor inside. I sighed heavily, watching her sit there in handcuffs. How didn’t someone become so greedy that they were willing to take the life of their mother?How? Inwardly asked me as I looked at her and the interrogation started. “Hey” my mom whispered after she come into the courthouse sitting next to me.“Hi.” I replied as she helped my hand.“How is it going?” She asked me as I shook my head. I clearly didn’t understand what was happening here/ I just wanted to move on already and start afresh away from everyone.“Will please, Ms Ramirez, stand as I pass my sentence?” The judge said as I pursed my lips together.The judge went on sentencing Eleanor as I swallowed hard, looking at her crying over someone who wanted to kill her. I sighed heavily as I nodded my head, watching Eleanor and her reaction.She lowered her head as if she was crying. After the sentencing, mum got up from her chair.“
**Emelia**I looked at Liam and then mum waiting for her to say something to him.“She couldn’t sleep with you. She hated you for falling in love with Emelia,” she said to me as I swallowed hard looking at Emelia, who lowered her head.“I am sorry for what my family has done to you. I swear if I could do things differently, I would,” she said to Liam as I gripped her hand. Liam nodded his head before storming out of the room.“Liam” I shouted as I looked at mum, who lowered her head in shame.“Go” Maria pointed in the direction of the door with her head as I sighed heavily, looking at her, Without wasting time, I got off the chair where I was sitting, going to look for Liam. He walked down the stairs and I followed him behind.“Liam.” I shouted after him, and he didn’t stop,“Liam” I shouted, running as fast as I could. I miss a step before I could step on the last step and I end up twisting my ankle.“Ah> Fuck” I shouted trying to stand up but finally Liam stops in his tracks turni
**Liam**I sighed heavily, sitting back in my chair at home. I had taken time away from work and just rested. The year has been stressful for me.From marrying the wrong sister to being accused of impregnating the other sister and having to fall in love with someone.I stared out the window. I wondered what was it that Emelia always loved about this place. She constantly kept on looking through this window whenever she came to my study.I sat in the chair she sits in and just stared out the top-to-bottom glass. The view of the city and the river looked spectacular from here.The doorbell rang, and I sighed heavily, wondering who could be at the door. I know Emma travelled away for the next few weeks and I don’t get along with other members of my family.I sighed heavily, standing up from my chair as I made my way out of the study room, heading to the door. “Alexa, turn on the lights,” I instructed, walking to the door.I always have the lights off during the day and only turn them on
**Emelia**Two weeks since the incident happened and once again I had to put my life on hold once again because of my family.Packing up everything in the room, I looked around as I sighed heavily, thinking of Mum. she hasn’t woken up and the doctors can’t seem to figure out what the problem is.I finished packing up and looked around as I sighed heavily. After mum's condition improved, I needed to leave. I was going to leave this town and start afresh somewhere else without my family.Without having to worry about what would happen to Eleanor. They charged her with attempted murder, but because they couldn’t prove that she was the one that changed Liam’s medicine, they were not going to add that to her charges.I finished up what I was doing and cleaned u the room before heading out to take a shower. Thank goodness my hair was growing long again.I finished what I was doing a d made my way to find something to wear when my phone kept on ringing.I headed to the kitchen to get it from
**Emelia**‘You are a murderer!” Eleanor shouted at me as I watched her trying to get out of bed waiting for come for my throat as I shook my head. I can’t believe that I was responsible for her losing the baby.Liam looked at me and I lowered my head stepping out of the room, I walked away thinking about what Eleanor just said, I was responsible for her miscarriage that makes me a murderer as well.“Are you okay?” Liam asked me as I swallowed hard, why did I stop here?He tried to touch my shoulder and I quickly removed my and form him, “Yes I am fine” I said to him and he nodded his head looking at me.“You’re not a murderer Emelia” He says to me as I smile looking at him, I was a murderer who killed his baby and he still wanted to convince me otherwise.“I am the one who pushed her, I caused her miscarriage so basically I am a murderer” I said and I felt tears fill the slits of my eyes as I lowered my head.“No. You are not. You are just someone who wanted to protect her mother”
