Emery's POV

I feel like a frozen doll. Helpless and full of self-pity. This isn't the first time I've felt this but this is the most painful. I feel like I wasn't only betrayed. I was shot on the back helplessly.

Tristan balled his fists and stared into my eyes. "You've met her?"

I shook my head as I felt bitterness in my heart. We haven't met but I feel like I already lost the fight. I'm a fighter but I can't find my fighting spirit. What I saw was too painful. Especially that I know it's her. She was the one he's supposed to marry.

She came back. What kind of defense do I have against the woman who captured his heart?

I swallowed hard. "I-I'm not legally married to him, Tristan—"

I don't know. I feel like I've seen her somewhere but my mind was too messy to remember."Uh…Anne, I'm going out with Emery today—""I'm scared, Terrence!" Anne sobbed and grabbed Terrence's arm.I squeezed my eyes closed and looked down before I lifted my chin and looked at her again. I caught Terrence distancing himself from Anne before he worriedly glanced at me.I feel like someone is suffocating me but I shot my eyebrow up when my eyes met with Terrence's."Then, why don't we all stay here and tell us your story, Anne," I said as I sat on the single couch and crossed my legs.Anne looked at me with a hint of annoyance in her eyes. She pressed her lips together and shook her head."I-I already told Terrence—""You told him, but I wanna hear it too," I said as I tilted my head and crosse

    Emery's POVI don't know why I couldn't believe him when I could see and feel his sincerity. It's as if I know that even if he promised me, I know in my heart that he can't really abandon her, especially now that she told him those stories.I dropped the brochure, I just finished printing, on the table. I pressed my lips together and sat on my swivel chair.Our day was ruined yesterday. Our date didn't happen. I was annoyed and…hurt to see him hugging his ex.Alright! It didn't mean anything. He just comforted her because she's scared, according to her. Tss!

So we can talk about our problems."I rolled my eyes and dropped myself on the couch but I groaned when I sat on something and I realized it was the remote control. I looked at Terrence with an annoyed face but he shot his brow up."You were the one who's always watching TV, Emery."I grimaced and threw the remote on the coffee table. It rolled on the table and landed on the carpeted floor. Terrence sighed and picked it up before he put it on the coffee table and sat on the couch across from me. His legs were parted as he sat there comfortably and landed his eyes on me."I still wanna ask you the same question I asked before but I know you won't answer me just like how you walked out on me that day."I looked away. How can I answer him properly that day? He was asking me if I'm jealous of hi

    Terrence's POVI took a deep breath after putting a blanket on Emery. She fell asleep after taking her medicine. I stared at her face and slowly leaned closer. I wiped the excess tear on her cheek but I clenched my jaws after another lone tear rolled down her face even while she's sleeping.My heart is racing in anger. Whoever sent that fcking, threat, I will make them pay. How dare they scare her like this? How dare they make her cry?I couldn't calm myself down. I still can hear her cries and see her eyes full of tears. The terrifying picture of her crying in fear has already been engraved in my mind. I couldn't forget it. I've known her as a strong woman. Fearless. Bold. But today, her fierce facade was stripped off. I was so shocked and scared when I saw her like that. I feel like…I'd die if I saw her again in that situation.After kissing my wife's forehead, I went to the balcony and closed the sliding glass door before I took my phone out fro

Seeing that…brutally killed animal…it…it triggered some memory inside my head that I thought I had already buried in the deepest part of my mind. It was terrifying that I broke down like that in front of Terrence. I couldn't imagine what could've happened to me if he wasn't there that day. If I didn't approach him in the park and he didn't come with me, I think I would've lost myself that day."Emery!"That bubbly voice woke me up from my deep thoughts.I immediately flashed a smile after Georgina entered my office. She was roaming her eyes around while nodding in satisfaction."Ohh! What an office."I smirked at her. "You like it?"She smiled. "I'll like it better if you'll go out with me today."My brow shot up.

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.

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.

    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.

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!

Now it got me thinking, does his offer of spending forever with him still stand?

"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.
