“You are very handsome, I only wish to get married to you.” “Oh….really, do you think that you meet all the qualifications that I want in my woman?” He asked and then looked her all over from her head to her toes. The guy didn’t even blink his cold eyes as he scanned her body and she started panicking that he would reject her. Emily Meets Billionaire Richard Weller in the Bar and they get married the following day. In their journey to discover each other they face several challenges. Emily later realizes that her heart beats only for him despite the circumstances under which they met.
View MoreEmily breathed a sigh of relief as she stepped on the elevator of the tallest sky scrapper in town. Finally her adopted family had allowed her to work in the company.
Davis group of companies was one of the most famous real estate companies in town and it is also the most sought after in the city. With Billions of money trading in the stock exchange they were considered one of the richest families around.
Matt Davis was the president of the company and it was being managed by Ruth Davis.
Emily was going to be the secretary of Ruth Davis whom she knew never liked her from the day she was brought from the orphanage. Ruth never gave her any motherly love, all her attention was focused on her biological daughter whom she gave birth to a year after she was adopted.
In her heart, Emily knew that she agreed to let her work in the company in order to make her life miserable. But she was going to be patient and save as much money as possible so that she can be independent and live her own life.
“Why are you late?” Ruth asked in a stern and disgusted voice
“The traffic was slow and I couldn’t get here on time.”
The truth is that she woke up early and ran to the bus station to take the usual bus to the office but she was told by other passengers that the bus was having a mechanical issues so it delayed for another 30 minutes.
Since she was short on cash and it was her first day at work she had to wait patiently knowing that when she reaches the office she will not avoid the wrath of Ruth.
She couldn’t help but tremble with the thought of the terrible things that she had done to her in the past. It was still fresh in her mind and gave her nightmares every single day.
“I don’t like inefficient and lazy people, if you dare mess up in my company I will have no option but to fire you right away.”
“Yes I understand”
“Come on get out of my sight. Look at the cheap dress you are wearing. This girl will drive me crazy one day.”
Emily slowly turned around and left to go back to her office. She felt warm tears form on her eyes but she had to be strong. She was not going to show any weakness in front of the heartless woman.
But it was hard for her to get employment in other companies as she had no connections and the only option she has right now was to endure all the pain she was going to pass through for the hope of a better future.
As if it wasn’t enough humiliation for the day, she bumped in to Nina Davis on her way to her office, despite her young age she had a more superior role in the company. She was the designer of the company.
“You low life, what are you doing in my company?”
“Please Nina I don’t want trouble, can we put aside our grudges and be sisters for once in our lives? I am really tired of all this.”
“You don’t have the final say here. I don’t even know why my mother allowed you to work here. But I promise you that it will not be easy for you here.”
The other employees who left their chores were now keenly looking at the scene before them. Even though they pitied the new comer they didn’t have any choice but to shut their mouth. Nina was the devil herself and she will not hesitate to fire anyone who comes on her way.
“What are you people staring at? Come on go back to work before I fire all of you” she shouted
Every one bowed their heads down and pretended to go back to work and immediately she left, Emily heard low voices commenting on what has just happened.
“Who is that chubby girl?” One of the workers asked
“I heard a rumor that she is the adopted daughter of the boss.”
“Oh…. She is being bullied by that heartless Nina and I really pity her right now”
Emily heard all the comments but she assumed them and continued to focus on her work, she didn’t want any trouble the only thing to do was to shut up and pretend.
At the end of the day, Emily had only managed to make one friend. The rest of the employees only looked down upon her and didn’t want to associate themselves with her.
Mira was not a very social girl but she kind of liked Emily. She wanted to protect her from all those people who wanted to hurt her and so she vowed to be her friend even if everyone else disapproved.
“Emily, let us walk to the bus stop together”
“You really don’t mind? She asked.” I have noticed that others don’t want to associate themselves with me. Don’t you think you will be in a lot of trouble?”
“They can go to hell for all I care what matters is that I like you and nobody is going to change that”
“For the first time in the whole day Emily managed to smile and felt all the burden on her shoulders loosens. Despite all the day challenges she had gained one good friend.”
“This is where we part our ways but remembers I am your friend, count on me for whatever you need from now onwards.”
“Thank you”
She gave Emily a peck on the cheeks and left.
When she opened the front door of the house, she heard voices chatting in the living room. All the voices were all familiar, but one voice particularly caught her interest. It was none other than her longtime boyfriend Toby Roberts.
She couldn’t help but move closer and what she saw broke her heart in to tiny pieces. He was hugging and kissing Nina Davis. This was the last thing she expected from him. She loved him and was so hopeful for the future they were going to have together.
Tears that she had been holding for the whole day now flowed freely on her face as she asked in a shaking voice.
“How could you Nina? I have left everything for you but you had to mess up with the only thing that was important to me. It wasn’t enough that you have the love of our parents, what did I ever do to you?”
Before she could finish what she was saying, a slap landed on her face, she couldn’t even remember how many time the same hand had slapped her. She touched her cheeks with her hands and tried to caress it as it was already burning with pain. But this was all, she had it up to her throat and she wasn’t ready to deal with them any more
“You don’t have any right to talk to my daughter like that. Have some little respect because you are the only outsider here” Matt Davis growled.
Emily lifted her head and looked at Toby with tears in her eyes, but he just ignored her and continued to put his hands on Nina’s shoulder. He was acting different and she couldn’t believe that yesterday he was just telling her how much he loved her
“Emily can I invite you for dinner? You can choose the restaurant that you want, there is something that I need to tell you. “Said Richard.Emily was now used to his tactics and he never seizes to amaze her, she smiled as he stated ”I know that this is another surprise that you have for me but don’t worry this time I also have a very big news for you?”“Really, give me a hint” he tried to get her to talk but she wouldn’t.” I will tell you after you have finished with yours okay. This one you will definitely like it”“Okay” he had no option but to agreeThat evening as they sat on the table eating their favourite meal, Richard knew in his heart that if he would have been given another chance to choose he would have still chosen her. As he stared deeply in to her brown eyes, he couldn’t help but melt in her love, it was strange but he was caught up and there was nothing left for him to do.“There has been something I have been meaning to tell you for a while now but I didn’t find the ri
Emily did nothing but to nod her head “Yes it has already been confirmed, all we need to do is go for A DNA test which I know will turn out positive.”“Don’t worry, I took both samples of your hair and it turned out positive. Emily and Mira you are really sisters so you don’t need to confirm any further.” Dan said and excused himself to go. He just felt contented for reunited the sisters.“Congratulates Emily and Mira” Ben muttered and hugged both of them. He soon went with Richard to the study room so that they can give them some time to catch up.The girls did chat for a very long time and they didn’t even realize that it was already dark. They came to reality when Richard and Ben came to remind them that it is time to take some break.“Ooh…we had so much to talk about but it can wait for another day” Emily said as she hugged Mira goodbye.Yes my sister and my best friend, now we will never be inseparable. We will make sure to compensate on all those period that we weren’t able to g
“Okay as you wish” Richard smiled with triumph, he never believed that there will come a day that his proud and unbearable brother would bow down to him. But he didn’t care all he wanted was for him to finally leave him alone.The boys seemed to have sorted their issues so the parents who were eavesdropping came back to the living room smiling and complimented both of them. Anew era in the Weller family has began and they couldn’t be any happier.“Richard you should have done this earlier. Mark is surely a very stubborn man but I know he will be fine” their father said and gave Mark a slight pat on the shoulder to show him that he appreciate him for doing what he has done.Mark smiled at him and whispered” Dad you know I have always loved both of you, I just didn’t feel that you loved me the same. Can you at least try to show me more attention?“Don’t worry my son, it is just that you never allowed yourself to reason out things but we are the first people who love you more in this wor
“Do you even ask? Richard mother replied. This is all about your sons beef and I don’t know when it is ever going to stop. I really tried to teach both of you the right way but if it must take place please you are free to take it outside.”“There won’t be any one fighting here mum, all I want is to make myself clear to Mark and we will be done. I will go back to my house to mind my own business and you will stay back here with him if you so wishes.“Come and sit down, I want to hear all that you want to say” his further urged him. He was wise enough to try as much as he can to be patient.“Before I say anything I want to make it known that I never liked how Mark kidnapped my wife and told her things that she wasn’t supposed to. As if that wasn’t enough, he conspired to steal money from my company and then opened a new company to compete with me. Dad, why don’t you advise him that we are too old for this beef? We should just stop and move on with our life.”Never in my life Richard, I
“What do you mean Emily” Ken asked.She means that you just signed the transfer of ownership back to me, silly. You should have read the whole document. I can’t believe how stupid you are and you claim that you are a business man” Toby snarled.Ken hesitated as he felt his blood boil, the fools tricked him. They were never going to get away with this, he was going to kill all of them one by one. He slowly removed a firearm from his pocket and pointed it on Emily’s head” you should have thought well before messing with me.”Nina cheered happily she urged” what are you waiting for, blow her head so that she can go to hell, that is exactly where she belongs”Suddenly there was a bang on the door and Richard was standing there personally” he didn’t seem to fear anybody. All he did is say” Ken if you know what is good for you, stop pointing that gun on my wife or you will be dead.”Richard didn’t need to do anything because before Ken lifted his head one of the body guards had already pinn
“According to his father, he still has the original ownership papers, so he only wants him to sign transfer paper without his knowledge. I promised that I will help him but the more I think about it the more I get scared. What if he colludes with the likes of Nina to harm me?”Emily was devastated by thinking about Nina, she knew that she will attack her no matter what.Don’t worry Emily, I will help you. Everything will just be okay” he consoled her. Emily thought that he would scold her but Richard was getting more understanding each and every passing day.“Thank you” she said and hugged him.It has been weeks now and Ken reached out to Emily again. They managed to set up an appointment day and she was really nervous as the clock ticked on the wall. She didn’t know what to expect from the guy.The agreement was for Toby not to show his face in order not to raise any eye brows but he would stay near incase there was trouble.A sudden knock on her door brought her back to reality as h
Ken produced a sarcastically laugh, he never acres about anybody and this Emily is the least of his concerns.“You know I really don’t care about this Emily woman, but what interests me is that she is friends with Toby and I am definitely sure that she is a very careful lady. I think she has been consulting Toby and he has talked bad about me so I want to destroy the fool through Emily.”His plan was to sabotage her company with the help of his mafia friends, and then he will claim that Toby is the one who conspired to ruin her business.He will go as far as forging fake evidence against him. Ken was sure that Toby was planning something against him and he wasn’t going to wait for him to catch him off guard.Yes by the time we are done we will have killed two birds at the same time. You will have your revenge against Emily and I will have destroyed the stupid Toby. Cheers, we make a great team” Ken held his glass up and smiled evilly.Toby felt that the matter was so critical, so he
“Hello mommy I missed you, did you behave well? You know you are the biggest spoiled brat I know around. But please I am no longer I that bracket, I left it entirely for you. So keep on carrying the medal.”She laughed” you are so funny, son”“Toby, my son” his father too hugged him and patted him on the back.” What is new here? I want to know everything.”He guessed that he meant he wanted to know everything about his company which was going under the bridge .Ooh…daddy you have no idea what a mess you caused back then before disappearing “ he thought to himself.“Dad let us talk about that at home. I don’t feel comfortable talking about it here in the public” Toby said with courteous voice, he didn’t want his father to hear the bad news , not yet ,he needed to go home first.“Alright” his father said but deep inside he knew that there was something wrong. He was sure that he made the right decision by handing his whole life to that boy or was he wrong”When they reached home, his fa
Richard cleared his voice and stated with authority” My wife is now the rightful owner of this Company and those who do not believe the fact should go and check at the registry offices.“As for her uncle’s crimes, she shouldn’t be questioned about that. You can as well follow him to the prison and ask them that. I think Matt Davis is the best person to answer that.”Emily watched in amazement as Richard answered all the questions with no much effort at all. It would have been a very difficult time for her was he not around.“Yes she had known for a while that Martha was her maternal grandmother and it hasn’t been easy for her. She had lived her whole life as an orphan.” Richard continued to answer the reporter’s hungry questions“About the company, does she have the skills to run it?” Another reporter asked all over a sudden.Yes” Richard muttered and looked at his wife with affection then he added” look out for big news coming soon. You will then get to know that she has very outstan
