Emily 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
“What? Don’t look at me like that. I don’t love you anymore. You are nothing but a burden to me.” Toby said with impatient in his voice“But you promised to stay with me forever.”“Look at me very well. I am about to become the next president in my family company. I don’t need a weakling like you without any money to her name. Nina is good for me and I just realized that I love her.”“Yes Emily, we love each other and we will be getting married soon” Nina couldn’t help but throw it in her face. She loved her humiliation so much that she went ahead and kissed him passionately in front of her.“Toby you stand there and say all this to me, after I have given everything for your sake. I am going to say this for the first and last time. As long as I live I will never forgive you.”“Who needs you forgiveness?” Toby sneered“Emily, Ruth finally called. I hate the day I brought you in to this house. You have been nothing but a disappointment to all of us in this house. In fact I want you out
“Alright, don’t worry my friend. My mind is made up and even though I already know that I don’t deserve him, I won’t give up that easily”Emily took one more sip from her bottle and stood up .She was a little unsteady but she couldn’t let this chance slip away. She was going to show Nina and her parents what she is made of.She found the guy just relaxing on his chair with his eyes closed. He was so handsome with a perfect jawline which was being illuminated with the dim light in the room. His hair was slightly short and it seemed like he just had a haircut as it was neatly arranged.She was still staring at him in a daze when she heard a deep voice talking.“What do you want?”But he was sleeping right now, when did he open his eyes? She was still dumbfounded and the words that she wanted to utter stuck on her throat.“Little girl please speak. You are disturbing my peace.” He said with a calm and emotionless voiceShe gave him a little seductive smile and seeing that he was not move
She was startled by something tapping on her shoulder and when she woke up the most beautiful pair of ocean blue eyes were staring back at her. “Why are you sleeping on the couch?”“I was waiting for you to come and show me where to sleep and since you are late I decided to sleep here while waiting for you”“Are you seriously asking me that kind of question? Aren’t we legally married?”“So I should sleep on the master bedroom? Forgive me but this is my first time coming to your house and I didn’t see it fit for me to just do things without your permission. Besides we are still strangers to each other and I didn’t want to make you feel uncomfortable”“Yes silly you are now my wife?” He said this while smirking sarcastically.“Wait before you go. I want to ask you something”“Go ahead”“I know you married me for a reason. Come on tell me?”Seeing how he was looking at her with impatient in his eyes, she started feeling really uncomfortable as he seemed to be reading through her mind.S
“Oh…..Sweet Emily, I knew from the very first day I saw you that you were different from all of them but I really admire you. All I hope for is that the man treats you well and makes you feel appreciated. Let it not be one of those marriages that the couples can’t stand each other. If he dares to mistreat you I will kill him myself.”“Thank you but I can take care of myself and I know he won’t do anything bad to me because as much as I need him he also needs me desperately. However, can you believe it when I tell you that he also had his own motives for marrying me?”“No! This is getting even more interesting.”“He didn’t tell me but very soon he will have to explain that to me. But right now I have to go out and look for a job as a designer. I want to start from below and grow my name little by little. I want the whole world to acknowledge what I can offer.”“You know you don’t have to work, your husband is already a billionaire” Mira teased.“Bye Mira thanks for everything. Talk to
“So finally I have found out the reason why you decided to marry me? You should have just told me from the very beginning.”“Yes, now you know and I want you to act as areal wife. Please don’t disappoint me. I think you know what I am talking about.”She just stared at him in a daze, never at any moment did it cross her mind that the man will make such a request to her. She can’t even stand being close to him? Is she going to act as if she was in love with him?“Don’t worry we still have five days and you will soon get used to me. Get that silly look out of your face.”In the morning she woke up and dressed in a grey official skirt and pink blouse. Her hair was tied back in a ponytail. She needed to dress well in order to create a good first impression. After looking at the mirror and being satisfied by her look, she wore her black stilettoes and headed to the kitchen for her breakfast.Unfortunately Richard was still in the dining table taking his breakfast. Yesterday night she didn
“I am working on a design we need to present tomorrow for the upcoming building of the amusement park. I promised Ben that I will participate and win.”“So you people decided to challenge Davis Corporation? Emily are you sure you are not making any mistake? Because I have heard that they are the best in this, you are just an unknown designer probably trying on her first time, are you really sure?“Yes”“Okay but can you go and get some rest. It is not good for you to work all night long you can become sick.” Did he just show some concern for her? But she thought it was an arrangement between them and nothing more?“Let me do some final touches, I will be right there.”“Don’t take too long or I will come and carry you to the bedroom” he threatened“Don’t worry I am almost done.”In the morning she woke up really worried, it was the presentation day and she had done all she can and only hoped that things will go on smoothly. She took all her documents and headed up to the town hall wher
“I am not still convinced because I need to learn more about you. You have not completed the whole project and I have to appraise your entrepreneurial skills too. You might have the technical skills but business wise you suck and that is even worse.”“Don’t worry I will make sure to convince you” Emily gave him a charming smileEmily was exhausted with all the activities of the day, she leaned her head back on the chair and dozed off immediately. But all the same she was very grateful by having someone by her side.When Richard looked at his side he couldn’t help but stare at her beautiful angel like face. Now that he had a proper view she was a painstakingly gorgeous woman with really soft silky skin. Her face was flawless with a long black hair.He raised his hands and caressed her cheeks softly, something that he had been wanting to do for a while but he was restraining himself. She felt the soft touch of his hand on her skin and shifted slightly on the chair.On reaching the house
