"Can you open up your heart to me?" Tyler whispered into her ear in a seductive tone and she could feel her legs become weak, he leaned forward and tried to kiss her but she moved away from him.

View MoreI don't want to be in a relationship with you" Emily said coldly to the man sitting across from her, he's in his early thirties and obviously wealthy.
"What did I do wrong?, Am I not attractive enough?". He asked Emily who was sitting with her legs crossed."I have everything it takes to make you comfortable", He said staring at her.Emily took her LV bag on top of the table and walked out of the restaurant leaving him stranded and embarrassed, Her elegance and beauty got the attention of every man in the restaurant.She was about getting into her multimillion Rolls Royce when her phone rang and it was her mom calling but she refused to answer it, she knows she was going to yell and curse at her so she decided not to let her spoil her day."Take me to the office" she said to her driver and he agreed.She arrived at the office and immediately her manager and best friend came to her" Your mom called, I heard you crashed your date again " she rolled her eyes and went closer to her."She been calling me and I'm tired of lying to her, you should answer her call" she said and handed the phone to Emily."Why did you crash your date?, You do this Everytime I set you up with someone, that young man you just dumped is every lady's dream, he's the CEO of Harts company" her mom yelled over the phone, she was so loud that Emily had to remove the phone from her ear."Why don't you want to get married like your sister?, You want to inherit everything your father has by working your arse off trying to prove to him that you are capable of being the heiress?.Emily quickly became upset by her mother's words and hung the call on her, she hates it when she reminds her of her sister's betrayal, something she's trying so hard to forget.Her face immediately became cold and gloomy and she dropped the phone hardly on the table, she paced around her office trying to calm herself down.Emily Hudson is the first daughter of Mr and Mrs Hudson who are very powerful in the corporate world, she has a younger sister who she grew up with.Aside being the heiress of the Hudson's family, she's also a successful Actress and has made a name for herself both in the business world and the acting world. She was a sweet and beautiful girl who was easy going and had everything she wanted until an ugly event took place and changed everything.She was engaged to her business partner and their wedding date was already fixed, she was so excited as she shops for her big day, she couldn't believe she was finally getting married to the love of her life.She was about going to his room after shopping when she heard moans and kissing sounds coming from his room, she opened the door and found her sister, Celine in bed with her husband to be Roy and she was shattered, her eyes were filled with tears and the goodies she bought from the shopping mall fell from her hand, she quickly left the room in tears hoping that Roy would follow her and at least give her an explanation or make up excuses but he didn't, he ended up marrying Celine and that was when Emily closed up her heart.She has decided not to open up her heart to any man especially the wealthy and famous ones, she decided to focus on building her career and working on her self and that she has done successfully.That incident changed her completely, it turned her into the cold and domineering lady that she is."Prepare my things! I'm leaving the city!" She commanded.CHAPTER 1The breeze wheezes in and the curtain near the window moves from side to side, the light streaming in through the window shone on Emily's face and that was when she woke up, she rubbed her face with the back of her palm and that was when her blurry vision became clear.She found herself in an unfamiliar room and a man was sleeping half naked close to her, she quickly peeped into the blanket which was covering her body and found out that she was naked. She was so scared and wondered what might have gone wrong, her head was aching so bad, she couldn't remember what happened the night before and how she ended up with a mysterious man in a hotel room.She stared at the handsome man sleeping comfortably beside her before quietly getting down from the bed. she scanned the room with her eyes trying to make sure there's no CCTV cameras in the room, she quickly picked up her clothes and shoe which was scattered on the floor, she took her bag from the table and left the room quietly trying not to wake the young man. She covered her face with her hand as she Storm out of the hotel, she couldn't risk being seen by anyone or anyone taking pictures of her.She opened her phone and saw several messages which was sent to her by Gracie her manager."Ding!" Her phone buzzed."Where are you?""Pick up my calls, I'm worried""Are you still at the party?""I'm trying to get to you please reply my messages when you see them""Text me your location and I will arrive with your driver to pick you up" .Emily sighed heavily as she scrolled through the messages, she was so tensed and nervous. she texted Gracie her location and immediately she arrived with her driver and picked her up.She immediately fell into the sofa as they arrived at her house, she was feeling so scared and frustrated. She held her head with her hands trying to remember the incident that led her to the hotel room with a mysterious man, she remembered attending an associate's birthday party and the next thing she remembered was someone whispering to her in a seductive and breathless voice.She remembered running her hand through his perfectly chiseled face and kissing his red full lips. "What is going on?, I'm confused" Gracie asked and she Jolted out of her thoughts.She stared at her best friend who was worried about her, she doesn't know how to tell her that she just had a one night stand with someone she doesn't know after rejecting so many prominent men."I fucked up, I just had a one night stand with a stranger" she said to her and she opened her mouth wide in shock. She was excited that her best friend who has been celibate for years finally got intimate with someone and on the other hand she was sad because she doesn't know anything about this person and how it happened. She sat down beside her trying to calm her down."How did that happen?" Gracie asked, she knows that her friend is not someone who would easily spend a night with a guy Let alone someone she doesn't know."I don't know, I think someone spiked my drink, I could remember sitting down in a corner and drinking. I'm scared, what if this gets out or this guy has pictures of me naked, it will ruin my career and everything I have worked so hard to build" she panicked. Gracie could feel the fear written all over her face."It could be that they set me up, maybe he was sent by my sister to ruin me. What should I do?, How did I get myself in to this mess. I can't let anyone know about this, my enemies will mock me and my career will be over. The worst part of it is that he looks younger than me, he should be in his early twenties. My father is the only one that has always supported and stood by me, I can't let him down"."Calm down, I don't think someone set you up. you should take a bath first, we will come up with something and fix this so that no one will know about it" Gracie said trying to calm her worrying friend. Emily is obsessed with having a perfect life with no flaws and she understands that but sometimes things happen and we can't control that.She led her to the bathroom and closed the door while thinking of what to do next as her manager and best friend. She wants to launch her new clothing line next week and they wouldn't want anything to ruin it.Emily was covered in bubbles as she sat down in the bathtub, her thoughts were running wild, she could still feel the mysterious guy run his hands through her flimsy gown, he touched her in the way no man has ever done. His pointed nose pressed against hers as he devoured her lips, his gaze was intense and unrelenting. She heard a knock on the door and immediately snapped out of her fantasies, She hated herself for thinking so horny when she should be thinking about how to make things right."Are you still there?, You have spent so much time in the bathroom, just making sure you are okay" Gracie said checking up on her, she doesn't want her to hurt herself or think too much about the situation. A lot of ladies hook up with men they no know nothing about and gets away with it but it's not that easy when you are the heiress of the Hudson's family.She was still thinking of what to do when Emily stormed out of the bathroom looking so tense. "What's wrong" she asked worriedly as she stared at her."I have an idea!, Let's track him down and shut him up!"The night after the wedding was quiet and still, as if the world was holding its breath, watching the newlyweds as they began their journey together. Emily and Tyler returned to their private suite, hand in hand, wrapped in the soft afterglow of their wedding celebration. The air between them was filled with an intimate anticipation, their love radiating in every glance and touch.The room had been decorated with rose petals scattered across the bed and the scent of lavender drifting through the air, calming and inviting. A gentle light filled the room, illuminating the space just enough to cast a warm glow around them.As they entered, Tyler let out a soft laugh, turning to look at Emily. "I still can’t believe you’re mine," he murmured, reaching up to tuck a stray hair behind her ear.Emily smiled, her eyes shining as she looked at him. "And I can’t believe I get to love you every day."Tyler reached for her hand, drawing her close until there was no space between them. His gaze was
The sun shone brightly on the day of Emily and Tyler’s wedding, casting a warm glow over the carefully decorated garden. Flowers bloomed in vibrant colors, and the sweet scent of jasmine filled the air. Guests began to gather, a mix of family and friends, each one eager to witness the union of two people who had overcome so much to be together.Emily stood in her bridal suite, surrounded by her closest friends. The dress clung to her in all the right places, and the delicate lace veil framed her face perfectly. She could feel the excitement bubbling within her, a blend of nerves and sheer joy. Glancing in the mirror, she took a deep breath, allowing herself to soak in the moment.“Are you ready to become Mrs. Tyler Hudson?” Gracie, her maid of honor, asked with a grin.Emily nodded, her heart racing. “More than ready.”After the final touches were made, Emily made her way to the entrance of the garden, her heart pounding with anticipation. She could hear the gentle murmur of guests an
Emily sat on the edge of her bed, the weight of the past few weeks pressing down on her shoulders. After Celine's death, the dynamics within her family had shifted. She had always been distant from her mother, Mrs. Hudson, whose harsh words and criticism had left deep scars. But now, Emily found herself longing for connection, for the chance to mend the rift that had widened between them.Taking a deep breath, she reached for her phone and dialed her mother’s number. The phone rang twice before her mother picked up.“Emily,” Mrs. Hudson answered, her tone guarded yet curious.“Mom, can we talk? I really want to see you,” Emily said, her voice steady but filled with a hint of vulnerability.“I suppose so,” her mother replied reluctantly. “Where do you want to meet?”“Let’s just have dinner at home. I’ll cook,” Emily suggested, a nervous flutter in her stomach.There was a brief pause, then Mrs. Hudson replied, “Alright, I’ll be there.”Emily hung up, feeling a mix of anxiety and hope.
As days turned into weeks after Celine’s funeral, Emily found herself struggling to navigate her grief while trying to reconnect with Tyler. Their relationship, once vibrant and full of promise, now felt strained and distant, like a threadbare tapestry fraying at the edges. Emily knew that Tyler was hurting, and she wanted to be there for him, but every time she tried to bridge the gap, she was met with an unyielding wall of silence.One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in shades of pink and gold, Emily decided to reach out. She texted Tyler, her fingers hovering over the keyboard for a moment before she hit send: "Can we talk? I miss you."Moments later, her phone buzzed. "Meet me at our spot?"Her heart lifted at the invitation. Their spot—an intimate little café tucked away on a quiet street—had been their go-to place for late-night conversations, laughter, and stolen kisses. She quickly got ready, feeling a flutter of anticipation and anxiety in her s
The sun hung low in the sky, casting a warm golden hue over the cemetery as mourners gathered around Celine’s grave. The atmosphere was heavy with sorrow, a palpable grief that wrapped around each person like a shroud. Emily stood near the front, her heart aching as she watched the small casket being lowered into the earth, a bittersweet finality settling over her.She remembered Celine’s laughter, the way her eyes sparkled with mischief, and the countless moments they had shared together. Now, it felt like a piece of her own heart had been buried along with Celine. Tears streamed down Emily’s cheeks, the loss cutting deeper than she could have ever anticipated. She clenched her fists at her sides, fighting the urge to scream at the unfairness of it all.“Why did it have to be you?” she whispered to herself, the question echoing in her mind like a haunting refrain.As the ceremony progressed, Emily felt a soft touch on her shoulder. Turning, she saw Tyler standing beside her, his eyes
Celine stared at herself in the mirror, the reflection staring back at her revealing a ghost of the woman she once was. The dark circles under her eyes were deep, and her complexion was pallid, a stark reminder of her declining health. But today, she wanted to feel alive, to cherish one last evening with the people she loved most. She wanted to create memories that would linger, bittersweet yet precious, in the hearts of her family.As she moved about her bedroom, she carefully chose an outfit: a flowing emerald dress that accentuated her figure and a delicate necklace that sparkled under the light. It was her mother’s, a piece she’d treasured for years, and wearing it made her feel connected to the woman who had once been a formidable force in her life. Celine hoped that tonight would not only be a farewell but a reconciliation, a moment to mend the rifts that had formed over the years.Once dressed, she walked downstairs, the familiar scent of her mother’s cooking wafting through th
The following weekend, Tyler and Emily planned a casual day together at the park. They decided to keep it simple—just a picnic, some time in the sun, and a chance to unwind after the pressure of family introductions. As Emily prepared a basket filled with sandwiches, fresh fruit, and cookies, she felt a flutter of excitement. It was a welcome break from the intensity of last week’s dinner.When she arrived at the park, Tyler was already waiting at their usual spot under a large oak tree, a checkered blanket spread out on the grass. His face lit up when he saw her, and he jumped up, jogging over to help her with the basket.“Hey, beautiful! Ready for a perfect day?” he asked, his smile infectious.“Definitely! I brought your favorite cookies,” she replied, handing him the basket.“Now you’re just trying to win me over,” he teased, ruffling her hair playfully.Emily laughed, swatting his hand away as they settled down on the blanket. The sun shone brightly, and a gentle breeze rustled t
The day had finally arrived. Tyler had been preparing Emily for this moment for weeks, and now she stood in front of her mirror, adjusting her hair nervously. She wanted to make a good impression on his family, especially considering the mixed feelings he had shared about them. The thought of meeting them filled her with both excitement and trepidation.“Okay, you’ve got this,” she whispered to herself, taking a deep breath. She put on a floral dress that hugged her figure nicely, hoping to strike a balance between casual and polished. As she slipped on her shoes, her phone buzzed on the bed. It was a message from Tyler.Tyler: Hey! Just left my place. Can’t wait to see you! Remember, be yourself!Emily smiled at his words, but the nerves fluttered in her stomach. After a few moments, she grabbed her purse and headed out the door.When she arrived at Tyler's house, she was greeted by the warm aroma of baked goods wafting from the kitchen. As she approached the door, Tyler opened it wi
The following morning, the sunlight filtered through the curtains of Emily's room, casting soft rays across her bed. Emily stirred awake, her mind still clouded with the events of the previous day. The memory of Ava’s betrayal hung heavily in the air, but beneath that was another, more comforting thought: Tyler. He had stood by her when everything felt like it was crumbling, and she was grateful for his unwavering support.As she got out of bed, her phone buzzed on the nightstand. She picked it up and saw a message from Tyler.Tyler: Good morning, beautiful! How are you feeling today?Emily smiled, her heart fluttering at the thought of him. She quickly typed back.Emily: Morning! Feeling a bit better. Just trying to process everything.After a moment, her phone rang. It was Tyler.“Hey,” she answered, her voice soft.“Hey, you,” he said, his tone brightening her mood. “I was thinking we could go for a walk later, maybe grab some coffee. I want to make sure you’re okay.”“That sounds
