last update Terakhir Diperbarui: 2024-10-29 13:40:01

Emery's POV

I feel empty, sad, angry and everything negative. I want to hurt someone. I want to throw anything that my hand could grab. I want to shout. I want to scream.

"Fcker!" I whispered under my breath and laughed.

"Ma'am, someone's calling you."

I lifted my face and found a man standing in front of me. His face was blurry.

"Ma'am, your phone has been ringing for almost 10 minutes."

I gritted my teeth. "Give me more liquor."

"Ma'am, you're already drunk."

I glared at him. "What is it to you? Do you care for me, huh? Why do you care? Are you my family? My father doesn't even care for me. Why do you care?"

"Ma'am, I will answer your phone for you so you can go home."

I looked down as I heard the word home. I don't have a home! My family's gone so I don't have something I can call my home. Dad doesn't care about me anymore. He chose his pretentious woman and douchebag of a stepson.

"...yes, sir."

My forehead creased as I looked at the bartender in front of me. I snatched my bag whe

The sunlight isn't even helping and is only making it worse.I angrily got off the bed and walked towards the window like a freaking zombie. I closed the blinds and dropped my body on the bed again.I'm jobless. That's what made me open my eyes again.I stared at the ceiling thinking about everything that happened last night. I got wasted. I punched Terrence, cursed him and even threw up on his pants. After that we went home. He carried me to my room and woke up a female househelp to change my clothes.Sighing, I cupped my aching head and grabbed my hair. I need to find a way to get my company back and I remember Terrence asking about it last night.I grabbed my phone from the bedside table and dialed Terrence's number.[Emery…]I bit my bottom lip. Why does his voice sound so sexy?I cleared my throat. "Where are you?"[Office. Why?]Nodding, I rolled on the bed and lay on my stomach. "Nothing. Thanks for last

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 17 Unfortunately Jobless

    Emery's POVIt's just a normal accident, but why can I see the man riding the motorcycle staring at me creepily. I'm sitting behind the opened ambulance while the medic was giving me first aid. The man riding the motorcycle wasn't hurt. He just had bruises on his arm and the police are talking to him. Strangely, his eyes were on me."Ouch!" I growled at the female medic when she moved my arm."Sorry…"I pursed my lips and looked around. From the other side of the road, I saw Terrence getting out of his car with a creased forehead. His eyes immediately found me and he jogged towards my direction.My lips parted, realizing how hot and handsome he was while jogging towards me as his hair dances in the air everytime he moves."What happened?" He panted a little when he stopped in front of me.I looked away and my eyes landed on my car. "Just a minor accident.""Minor? I can see that you're badly injured, Em."I looked at him again and shot an eyebrow up. "You're overreacting, Terrence.""

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 18 Framed

    Emery's POVThe loud ringing of my phone woke me up while I was resting. It's already 6 in the evening and I immediately sat on the bed after seeing the name registered on the screen of my cell phone. It's my best friend Goergina. I bet she heard what happened in my mom's company."Hello, George."[Em, meet me in the Red at 7PM sharp. You better not stand me up, darling.]I shot an eyebrow up. "Hunk hunting went wrong?"[My best friend's perfect life went really, really wrong. Why did I see an article saying that Ethan fcking Craig is the new CEO of your company? Kindly enlighten me please because I'm really confused as hell right now.]I took a deep breath and stared at my own reflection in the mirror. She didn't hear about my accident today. I'm relieved no one published an article about it. Must be Terrence's doing."I might be a little late, George."[Argh! Whatever. Just make sure you won't come at twelve midnight. Cinderella's meeting someone tonight, darling. Getting laid is th

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 19 First Real Fight

    Emery's POV"Why don't you check the CCTV footage of the bar. I'm sure it caught whoever framed me up for this," I said annoyingly to the officer incharge of my case.He stopped typing on his computer and lifted his face to look at me. "We have already reviewed the CCTV, ma'am but the bar was crowded. It's hard to tell if someone really framed you up."My eyes squinted. "Are you saying I owned that narcotics? Me? Why would I freaking sell narcotics? I'm rich!"Georgina caressed my back, comforting me as she spoke. "Officer, can't you just let my best friend go? She's injured.""I'm sorry, ma'am. We just really need her to resolve this case. If the drug was really hers, she should face the consequences—""I said it's not mine!""It was found in your bag, ma'am.""So, what? Does it always mean I own it?"Georgina groaned. "I'm calling my lawyer!""I already called Mrs. Gray's husband, ma'am."I lifted my eyes to the police officer who walked behind me. He's the same officer who was inch

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 20 Losing Temper

    Emery's POVI stood on the side of the road, looking at nothing in particular. My mind was blank and I felt empty. There's a hollow in my heart and the sadness is eating me alive as Terrence's words echoed in my mind like a freaking corrupted CD.For him I was just throwing a fit. For him I was rebelling because I want a position that according to him, I don't deserve. It hurts. For days, I've seen his kindness and it disappointed me because I thought he'd side with me. He doesn't really care and I've proven it tonight.Taking a deep breath, I started walking until I stopped on the bridge. I rested my elbow on the railing and stared at the deep water under the bridge.Glancing at my injured arm, I sighed again. Good thing I'm wearing a coat because the wind is starting to get cold.What should I do? I need to take my mom's company back but I know I can't do that so easily. At least, the easiest way is to wait for Ethan to make mistakes but I don't know if he'll make the same mistake h

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 21 Draw a Line

    Emery's POVI was squeezing myself in the door of the passenger seat while Terrence was driving the car. He keeps on hissing and glancing at me while I remained staring at the road, thinking about what he said a while ago.He said I looked fckable when angry and with messy hair. Was he always teasing me because I make him hard?My cheeks heated because of the vulgar words lingering in my mind.Why am I even thinking about that? He's a pervert and he only said that so I'd stop resisting.Argh!‘...you look fckable…'It's playing inside my mind like a damn CD. I can't forget about it and as silly and stupid as it may sound but it's making me feel hot."Will you stop making that kind of face? It's irritating me!"I now have the courage to look at him. I shot him death glares."Can you blame me? You blackmailed me, you asshole!"He glanced at me again and laughed without humor. "You think I'd do the first move? Even if I want to bed you, I won't force you. I'll wait until you can no longe

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 22 Stubborn

    Emery's POVI was sitting boredly on the couch while doing nothing. I'm bored as fck, alright! I want to go out but I don't know where to go. Plus my injured arm is irritating me and it's really eye-catching. People would talk about my injured arm and my life is already as messy as my mother-in-law's face."How's life being jobless, huh?" My mother-in-law was walking down the stairs, looking at me with a mischievous smile on her lips.I smiled sweetly at her. "I think you can explain it better, mother-in-law. You've been jobless ever since you got married, right?"Her smile slowly faded. "I don't need to work because I am the light of this family. My son and husband are providing for me. Besides, I'm not like you who'd rather drown herself in paperwork than take care of her husband!"I chuckled. "Mrs. Gray, I'm sure your son can take care of himself since he's not invalid. Why would I stop working just so I can take care of him?""That is your duty as his wife! Why did my son even cho

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 23 Stick With You

    Emery's POV"Why are you following me?" I angrily growled at Terrence who just lazily looked at me instead of answering. I'm entering a convenience store and he still followed me here. I'm just going to buy sanitary pads!"Wait outside!" I growled at him again.He shot an eyebrow up and looked at me. "No, I won't leave your side ever. I will stick with you until you give in and admit that there are things you can't do on your own."I gritted my teeth as I glared at him. He volunteered to buy me sanitary pads but I'm so desperate to prove that I don't need him in any way. Yes, I needed him to save my mom's company but that's all. I want to prove to my dad that I don't need a man beside me. I don't need a husband with a good reputation to make me feel worthy.Annoyed, I turned my back on Terrence and went to the sanitary pads section. I felt him still behind me and I couldn't help but roll my eyes everytime I got the chance.I grabbed a pack of sanitary pads, alcohol and pain reliever b

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 129 THE END

    Emery's POV"Where are we going?" I asked Terrence when he brought me to a yacht. I don't know why we're here but my heart is already racing to its limit. I feel like this is the moment I've been waiting for but I don't want to expect, although he never disappointed me."We're having a date."I smiled at him. "Why in a yacht?""Because I don't want you to leave."My eyes squinted when I realized he's smirking. He's going back to his old self and it makes me happy."You won't be able to jump and swim from here with your dress."I glanced at my dress, perfectly hugging my body. My back was exposed and my cleavage was visible.I smacked his stomach. "You!"He chuckled and held my hand. He pulled a chair for me as I roamed my eyes around. A delicious smell filled my nose when he removed the cover of the food on the table between us. My eyes landed on the steak in front of me.It's been two years since I last ate food like this. It's not that I don't like it. It's because eating it would r

    Emery's POVA week in my work has been peaceful. After Terrence came unannounced and purposely announced that we're together, my coworkers didn't bother me anymore. In fact, they apologize and tried to befriend me but I don't want a scripted friendship.Years ago, I didn't want Terrence's name to affect my social relationship. I don't want the people to treat me good or what just because I'm married to him but now, I realize it's fine. People around me are fake, but at least I'm happy.For a week, I've learned to adjust to the world. I didn't like being ordered around before, but now I'm learning it.The routine was the same. I'll go to work early and Terrence would startle me by bringing snacks or meals but I'm getting used to it. I actually expected him to come yesterday and he did. He truly never disappoints and I swore to make it up to him."Mrs. Gray…"I smiled at the guard. I already know but it's too early."Is Terrence outside, sir?"He shook his head and my smile slowly faded

    Emery's POVI massaged my neck and stretched my arms after I finished printing design proposals. On my first day, I was introduced to my team and it turns out the team is busy on a project so I was tasked to print design proposals."Emery, I'm gonna get some coffee. Do you want some?"I looked at the man who asked. I smiled at him. I remember him. He was my classmate during high school and he still remembers me too."Thanks, but you don't really have to."He smirked. "I want to."I watched him leave but my smile faded when I saw the women in our department looking at us. I stood straight and pressed my lips together. Obviously, they don't like me."She just started but she's already flirting."My brow shot up. I don't tolerate such things but this is my first day at work, so I'd avoid making enemies…for today."I think I know her. She's familiar."I heard a sarcastic laugh. "Maybe she's a show girl. You like attending car shows right."I rolled my eyes and finished the last batch of p

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 126 Wedding Ring

    Terrence's POVI take back what I said. I don't wanna see her with another man even if she doesn't love him. I want her for myself. I don't want her to coax me anymore. I don't want her to put on so much effort into making up for me. I don't care if she did something bad to me. I don't care if she hurt me before. I want her back and no one and nothing can stop me.I massaged my forehead. My head hurts because of what happened last night. I sighed and shook my head after I remembered what happened.I brought Kreed to a bar. We talked about Emery. He even confessed his feelings and insisted on courting her to get her back but I won't allow him."Did you know…Emery was my first girlfriend?"I looked at Kreed with a creased forehead. He's drunk. Okay, fine! I did it purposely. I poured him drinks continuously so he'd get drunk and he won't be able to show up tomorrow. I'm also a bit tipsy but he's worse. He couldn't even lift his head properly.He pointed at me. "You bastard! Why did you

  • I Married The Wrong Groom And Fell For Him   Chapter 125 Like A Tattoo

    Emery's POVI was glaring alternately at Terrence and Kreed. They're both sitting in front of me. If I hadn't kicked their legs earlier, they wouldn't have stopped bickering. They fought even in front of Gabriel and it angered me."Why are you here?" Terrence asked Kreed coldly."I should be the one asking you that. Why are you here?"I squeezed my eyes closed and sucked my breath as I massaged my forehead. I love having Terrence here, but they're irritating me."Why don't you leave now?" I asked, keeping my temper."She's telling you to leave." They said in chorus and I looked at them with a grimace."I'm talking to both of you. Leave now or I'd drag you both out."Terrence looked at me. "You're kicking me out?""Yes!"He frowned and looked at me like a bullied kid. I sighed and shook my head.Kreed pulled himself up. "Yeah right. We should leave because we're going to talk, Gray."Terence let out a sarcastic laugh. "I don't talk to ugly people."I gritted my teeth. "Leave, you two!

    Emery's POVI stared at Terrence lovingly. I know I looked like a lovesick woman now but I don't care as long as it's Terrence. My heart won't stop racing inside my chest as he stared back into my eyes with emotions I couldn't name. I want to know what's going on inside his mind. I'm curious about what he's thinking but I'm happy right now so I ignored my curiosity."What are you smiling at?" Terrence asked with a creased forehead.I smirked and shook my head. "Nothing.""What's in your head, Emery?"I opened my mouth to answer but my phone in my pocket rang. It was an unregistered number but I answered it immediately."Hello?"[Good afternoon, Miss Craig. This is from Xi Studio. You passed the interview and you can report to the company tomorrow.]I gasped and smiled at Terrence while thanking the staff who called me. "Thank you, sir! Thank you so much."The call ended and I stared at it happily. I can't believe my heart is jumping in happiness and excitement right now."What was tha

    Terrence's POVFck! Fck it! I want her to realize that she needs to make it up to me. I want her to feel that she needs me too and I need her, but why does seeing her so down after that simple conversation hurts me?I couldn't move. I'm standing in front of the kitchen counter, staring at the ingredients she chopped. She's still the high-maintenance woman I loved. She still can't cook. Can't even chop ingredients properly. The thought of it makes me happy. She's just so cute and perfect in my eyes. She's glowing and everytime I look at her, she's blinding me with her beauty.I'm still so fcking hopelessly in love but I'm restraining my own feelings because I want her to need me. I want her to realize that I can be hard on her too. That I can resist her because I'm so afraid that if she realized I loved her too much, she'll leave again and come back whenever she wants.I was left twice by the two women I promised forever.

    Emery's POVI was watching Gabriel and Terrence. They're talking about random stuff and Gabriel looked so happy while sitting on Terrence's lap. The latter looked extremely happy too. I remember the happiness in his eyes when he told me he wants a child. It melts my heart knowing he wants to build a family with me. Now it got me thinking, does his offer of spending forever with him still stand? I'm willing to bargain just to achieve the happiness and contentment I've been seeking my whole life."Papa, do you have a papa too?"Terrence chuckled and messed up Gabriel's hair. "Of course, buddy."Gabriel's eyes twinkled. "Can I see him?"Terrence nodded and took his phone out. "Here is my papa's picture. Soon, I'll introduce you to him."I swallowed hard. "They're not blood related but I'm so happy that Terrence is giving him the chance to experience having a father.""He looks like you." Gabriel said innocently."No! I'm more handsome than him."Gabriel laughed happily and innocently. "D

    Emery's POVI'm still lost. I thought I managed to free myself from darkness while healing, but I was wrong. I'm still trapped and that's all because I lost my happiness in the process of healing.I squeezed my eyes closed as I remembered the conversation I had with Terrence yesterday. He left after I was rendered speechless by the last words he said.He's still willing to take me back even after what I did to him. Thinking about his sacrifices hurts me and now he's willing to accept me again even after I left him without a word. I don't know if I really deserve him. Can I really make him happy? I can only offer my love and faithfulness to him and I cannot guarantee that I won't hurt him again because I can be stupid anytime. My decisions were reckless but he accepted my flaws. I am confident that he can make me happy, but can I really make him happy?"Momma?"I quickly wiped my tears and smiled at Gabriel. He climbed on the couch and sat on my lap while rubbing his eyes.
