last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Emery's POV

I have to guard my heart. I know the danger of being close to him. It will push me to the pit of hell and that's the last thing I want to happen. I don't wanna end up pitying myself and regretting everything. I don't wanna end up blaming myself for not being able to stop myself from falling. I should prioritize my mother's company. Besides, my relationship with Terrence is purely lies. Nothing is real. Even his treatment, it might be fake.

"You sure you'll stay here tonight? I might stay at the conference until midnight."

I nodded at him while lying on the bed. He's standing in front of the life-size mirror, fixing his tie. He looked very handsome and no woman could ever resist him especially if he showed them his charm.

This is funny but these past few days, I always find myself appreciating his facial features and even his personality. If this isn't a sign of falling in love, I don't know what this is.

"I wanna rest for tonight."

He nodded. "Alright! Don't wait for me."

    Terrence's POV"You won't follow her?"My forehead creased as I turned to Tristan, annoyed. Why does he seem interested in my relationship with Emery? Is he interested in her?"She'll come back on her own," I said, trying to comfort myself and figure out a reason why I feel bad for shouting at her.I mean, I just want her to know that she's too disrespectful with my family. She even shouted at my dad who always treats her right because of what? A guitar? She can just buy another one. Much more expensive than that antique one she has."Follow her, son. Don't let her anger live inside her," dad said which made me even more annoyed.Emery's a brat and she's so full of pride. She doesn't even want any help and I doubt if she'll talk to me if I follow her."Why would he follow her? She left on her own!" Mom scoffed.I clenched my jaws and looked at mom. "Did you cut the strings of her guitar, mom?"Mom's eyes widened. "What? Are you siding with her?""I'm just asking, mom."She looked away

His eyes examined my whole body and I could only fight his stares by giving him a blank expression.His lips parted and it seemed like he wanted to say something when someone walked past him and went straight towards me."Emery, good morning."From Terrence, my eyes slowly shifted to Tristan. I nodded at him. "Good morning."He smiled. "We're about to eat breakfast. Eat with us."I immediately shook my head. "I already had breakfast at my friend's house, Tristan. Thank you.""Ow! Okay!""I'll just go upstairs to prepare."He snapped his fingers and smiled. "Oh, right! You're working in our company. Sure! We can go there together if you want.""She's riding with me, Tristan."

I feel like it's about me since the employees here have been watching me all day like I'm some kind of enemy."Really? How did you know?""Girl, I saw the video before it was taken down. She looked so angry while the guards were dragging her out of their company."I clenched my jaws. I was right. They're talking about me. I rested my back against the wall and stared at my nails. My nails are too perfect to grab someone's hair. I don't wanna ruin it."She was the CEO of that company, right? How did they manage to kick her out?""I heard from someone I know in their company that she was just the acting CEO. She led the company for a month before her brother, the real CEO, took over."Acting CEO?

"Did I interrupt something?""No—""Obviously!" Terrence drowned my voice and I looked at him in annoyance. "What? You've become a delivery boy? I thought you're the Vice President?"Tristan scoffed and entered completely. He sat on the chair in front of me and put the folder on the table before dropping his eyes on me again."Hey, Em. I suddenly crave for coffee. Do you want some?""She can have her own coffee here, Tristan. And please! She's working.""Working?" Tristan's forehead creased.

I'm here at the pool area, dipping my feet underwater and he came to interrupt my thoughts. I'm thankful though. He can distract me from thinking about what happened in Terrence's office this morning."I researched ‘bout shops who personalize instruments. All that are closed. Do you wanna see it?"Shocked, I turned to him again. "Why?"He smiled. "What why? Why would you see it or why did I research it?""Why are you helping me?"He smiled again and took his shirt off. He glanced at me. "You know the answer."My eyes followed him as he jumped to the water without splashing on me.

Terrence did not believe me and I was so disappointed in myself for getting hurt because of it."It wasn't actually caught, but he must've really stolen the flash drive."I sighed as I looked at Tristan.

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.

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.

    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.

"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.

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?
