“I want you to leave Ben Foster Company and deny that you were the designer who won the tender. I want you to announce publicly that it was your sister’s creation and that you stole it”“And here I was thinking that you people had changed your views towards me. Where did I go wrong? Am I also a human being? Dads please don’t do this to me. I cannot go back on my word. How will the media people consider me?”“Do I look like I care?’ Nina said while giving her a deadly stare.“You should have just minded your own business instead of getting involved in things that did not concern you at all.”“Nina you are my sister, we grew up together. Of course we are not from the same blood, but please for the love of God why do you hate me this much. I keep asking you what I ever did to you.”“Shut up” Matt Davis snarled and a slap landed on her face that sent her backwards until she landed on the cold floor with her head hitting the edge of the table. It hurt her head so much that she felt like cr
Back at the house Richard suddenly felt that something was not right. Emily hasn’t called back after all the missed calls she had received from him. What really surprised him even more was that when he tried to call her a few minutes back her phone couldn’t be reached. It is that something happened to her? He wonderedHe didn’t know her that well but from the few weeks they have been together he had heard her mentioning someone by the name Mira and that she worked in the Davis corporation in public relations department.He remembered recently that Dan who is his personal assistant was bullying him in to meeting with the lady and he was sure that he has her contacts.He didn’t waste time but took his phone and dialed his number.“Hello Dan, I need a big favor from you.”“Yes Boss I am listening.”“Do you happen to have the number of that girl called Mira from the Davis Corporation? I have an emergency and I need to talk to her right now.”“Yes of course I even remembered where she resi
Matt moved closer and whispered in her ears” Don’t mess around, this man can destroy us before you know it”“I am sorry but my wife didn’t mean it. What we want to assure you is that Emily is not here neither have we seen her today” Matt said with a tremble in his voice as Richard looked at him with disbelief in his eyes.“If you say so but let me not find out that you have done something to harm her or hell will break loose. I remember that I personally talked to her in the morning and the only place she had in mind was here. Did you do something to harm her? Why is her phone switched of when the only place she had been to is here?”“I repeat let me not find out that you have done something to her.”With that he turned and stormed out of the house. He didn’t believe those people at all and he knew that they were lying.“I know a place we could go check out. Mira suddenly said. “It is rumored that there is an old house in the East where the Davis family used to punish those people who
“The operation was successful, however she is not yet out of danger. Something blunt hit her on the head and I am worried about the blood clot that we found on her head. Secondly she was dehydrated and weak, so she has been given an IV drip to help her gain the much needed energy in her body.”“Can I see her doctor?”“Yes but one person at a time. Even though she is still unconscious just try to talk to her. It is always good for the patients to hear the voices of their loved one.”“Please Richard, let me go first, I won’t take much time” Mira was already on the door, she didn’t even wait for his reply.She knew that the man was unpredictable so that was the only way she could have used to get to see Emily.When she opened the door to the ICU, Emily was sleeping on the bed with a huge bandage on her skull and one of her legs had a cast on it. She was red and swollen all over, it wouldn’t be easy to recognize the sad but sweet girl she met just a few weeks ago.As she bent over to kiss
It took her a while to finally open her eyes and the first person she saw was Richard sleeping on her side. It was a beautiful feeling that there was someone who was by her side and that she was never going to be alone.She lifted her hands and caressed his hair softly.Richard felt like he was dreaming while something was touching his hair. It couldn’t have been Emily because she was in a deep sleep. So he continued sleeping but the touch on his hair couldn’t stop, anyway he loved the feeling.Suddenly he remembered that he has slept for a while and needed to check on Emily. So he lifted her head up to stare at the most beautiful brown eyes ever. She was still pale and swollen all over but all the same looked as beautiful as ever.“Emily, it is so nice to finally see you awake. You scared the hell out of me. I told you not to go there but you insisted. Do you see what have happened to you?”“Yeah I know I should have listened to you, but who could have imagined that those people whom
“Leaving soon? Why don’t you two stay for a while? I bought some food here we can keep Emily company while she eats.”“We would have liked to stay but your mother has an appointment for her yoga classes, so we better get going because she is already late.”“Mom, thanks for coming. Go and enjoy your yoga. He said as he kissed her on the cheeks and hugged his father.For the next couple of days Emily’s hospital room became his office .However how much Dan tried to convince him to take a leave for even a week he refused saying that the company needs his attention and at the same time he needed to take care of his wife personally.The bandage on her head was removed and after proper review the doctor was satisfied that she was fully recovered and was ready to go home.That was the best news that Emily had heard because she needed to go back to the office and continue with the project she was assigned. Ben had come a few times to visit when he heard what happened to her through his friend
“It is a long story, I am sorry I do not like to talk about it now. Anyway I appreciate your concerns.”“Everybody go back to work now, the gossip is over” Greta instructed them as Emily sighed a relief and thanked her for getting rid of the ladies.The moment she opened her laptop she got the shock of her life, the project was professionally done and it looks better than she had expected.Immediately she called out Richard’s name aloud. There was nobody else who was capable of doing that kind of a job at night. Now that she started remembering Richard looked kind of weary in the morning she guessed that he stayed up all night long.But she was glad that the work was done and the help came specifically from her husband. So she decided that she will go back home early and cook him a good meal as appreciation but first of all she is going to send him a whats app message as appreciation.[Morning husband, you got cheeky and finished my work for me. I appreciate and for this I promise a d
“This is my final decision Emily, I will not take a no from you.”“Okay, thank you”Emily passed by the shopping center and bought some groceries, meat and fish. As promised she was going to prepare a very nice dish for her husband. Richard had already given her a card for purchases and she didn’t want to misuse the money, so she only took what was needed of her.By the time Richard got off work and made his way to the house, there was a sweet aroma coming from the kitchen. Emily was busy frying something that took all her attention. She didn’t even hear when he opened the door.Richard was standing right at her back and when she turned her head she was met with intense blue eyes that had always made her legs weak. Richard on the other hand was enchanted by her beauty as he studied how she skillfully carried herself in the kitchen.“Gosh Richard, you startled me!” Emily exclaimed while taking a step backwards. He was too close to her liking and the feeling he was invoking in her wasn’
