Emily's POV

“Okay honey. Take care,” Collin said, lowering his head to pester kisses on my forehead. I glimpsed Logan staring at us with a hint of jealousy in his eyes. My gaze traveled to Vivian's hands, which were entwined in Logan's arms, and a sly smile curled at my lips.

What a douchebag couple!

Collin tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, his eyes hovering over my features.

With a smile, he asked, “What of Carl? Haven't set my eyes on him today.”

“He's at the babysitter's. I'll be picking him up as soon as I'm back.” I answered, and he nodded before releasing my hands to let me go.

I shifted my gaze to Logan, whose eyes never left mine for a moment.

Clutching my bag, I spun around and gave him a smile before leaving. My heels clacked on the tiles as I strolled outside and I could feel his burning gaze on my back.

He strained to keep up with his speed because I was walking faster than him. My bodyguards trailed behind me as I stepped into my firm with a stern expression. Camera flashes shined on my face from all angles, and the reporters' inquiries seemed like babbles in my ear, making me even angrier."Sir. Could you tell us about your experiences? Did you get to see the famous CEO of the imperials?" One of the reporters questioned as he brought the microphone in front of me."What was your experience with them? Was your proposal to collaborate with her later approved? He asked, and I glared at him, compelling him to remain silent.

She took the blue folder and handed it to me as I extracted some files from it. As I read through the page, I touched my chin with my fingers and crossed my knees on top of each other.I lifted my head to look at Jade, whose keen emerald eyes drilled into mine. She fiddled with her fingers, waiting for my response.“So within the space of three months, we have three job applications?” I asked, caressing my temples.“Yes ma'am. The first applicant is Mrs Smith from New Orleans. She has the passion for jewel making and she's made quite some amazing designs. I think she's interested in partnering with us.” Jade announced and I skimmed through her portfolio, taking note of her designs.I nodded impressively before keeping the papers aside.

Every color drained from my face and I gawked in disbelief at his audacity to ask about my son's father. He never cared to even listen to me when I was about to reveal the news of my pregnancy to him.Not just that, he was less bothered when he saw the blood on my thighs after Vivian pushed me. Instead of helping me, he went to her because he was so concerned about her.I would have had a miscarriage because of that incident but I was fortunate that my child survived. I recalled the emotional rollercoaster I had been on those years and I felt the corner of my eyes burn with tears.When I thought of how I was treated poorly those times, my quest and desire for vengeance rekindled.“Tell me, Emily.

I’ve refused to pick calls from strange numbers since the day I received that unexpected call from Logan. I’m still baffled at how he got my number and I’ve tried my best to avoid him in every way I can.“You look beautiful, ma’am.” The voice pierced the silence, snatching me out of my reverie.A soft smile tugged at my lips as I spun around to stare at my personal maid, who had just walked in.She was in a black dress with a large white collar around her neck, a specific outfit for maids in the Gills Mansion.Her pretty amber eyes carefully scanned my outfit, and her sparkling white teeth showed through her warm smile.“Thanks, Kiara.” I mumbled, picking my black posh bag b

The only thing I could hear was my heartbeat and not the sounds emanating from the band's instruments.Logan's deep brown eyes pierced into mine and my heart skipped at every step he took towards me.As if that wasn't enough, he turned to Vivian and proposed that they occupy the empty set of chairs beside us.“Thanks for taking me to such a lovely restaurant, Logan!” Vivian exclaimed, clinging onto Logan like a leech.

His deep brown eyes searched my face, weighing the truth in my eyes. “Tell me, Emily. Are you truly happy getting married to him?” His statement fueled the rage in me and when I couldn't hold it anymore, I retaliated by pushing him off me. “You have no right to ask me such a question, Logan! You have no right to question my plans and intentions. If my intention is to get married to Collin, I don't see why you should feel so bothered about it.” I snapped at him, my voice raising an octave

Somebody help!” I screamed aloud for anyone who cared enough to listen so they would help in saving my husband.I tore a part of my dress and used it on his wound to place pressure on the injured area in order to stop the flow.“Please, help us!” I pleaded, tears in my eyes.“I'll…. I'll…I'll be fine.” Logan struggled to say to me in a stutter.“No, you are not fine.” I cried, trying to help him in any way I could before better help could come. If I had my way, I would have driven him off to the hospital but, I was in no right state of mind to drive a car now and he could not do the same in his injured state.Soon, Logan passed out and some onlookers dropped by to see what was happening.“Help me! my…my husband has been shot.” “Call the cops,” someone suggested.“Whoever fired the shot should still be around here somehow.” Another person said.“Please, let's call 911!” someone else said and all the while when they were talking and taking steps in helping us fro

The other rival gangs will get too cocky if they notice us slacking. This isn't time to slow down guys, we have to step up and show that we own this arena–”Collin's dark eyes wandered lazily around the dimly lit room, his mind in a faraway place as he sat on the seat at a corner in the room.The mafia members' discussion about the upcoming ammunition that had been imported secretly into the country and the inherent sneer from jealous rival gangs faded into the background while he thought of his newest worry.He couldn't be bothered about anything more except the news he'd gotten from Vivi

Emily and Logan exchange glances before taking a deep breath.Emily and Logan walked out of the ward with the doctor. Emily's chest heaved, her heart pounding harder. Anxiety lingered in the air."Doctor, how's Carl's health?" Logan asked first, while Emily stood there looking at one way."While his immune system is still stable, we have to explore several options for a bone marrow transplant. Since neither of you is a match, having a child together could potentially save his life.” The doctor said, staring at them sympathetically.“I understand this is personal but do know that I'll always be here to support you.

"After everything I did, after everything I said, she still went back to him?"Vivian, standing in the corner, let out a quiet chuckle. She had been watching him the entire time, enjoying the spectacle of his rage and unhappiness.

A wave of relief washed over me but I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was definitely wrong.I stared at my phone as I dialed Emily's number but she wasn't picking.“Emily, please pick up.

I froze for a moment. it felt as if time had come to a standstill. “Can you tell me more about this SCID?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady. The doctor's voice was gentle as he added, “It's a rare genetic disorder that affects the immune system.” I listened intently, my brows knitting. He cleared his throat and continued, “It is caused by mutations in genes which play crucial roles in development and functions of the immune system.” My eyes narrowed as I struggled to process his words “So, are you trying to say that we passed it down to him?” His lips conformed into a thin line. He nodded and also added, “While it can be inherited from parents who are carriers of mutated genes, it can also be caused by spontaneous mutations during fetal development. The latter I believe is what caused It.” A deep sigh escaped my lips. I paused for a moment, trying to pull myself together. "What
