Chapter Eight~ To Marry and be in pain

last update Last Updated: 2024-01-09 23:47:13

Emily

My legs are cold and stiff but they move. My eyes are red and puffy from crying but Kylie rushed back inside and did wonders to my face that one has to come so close to tell I have been crying.

It's been the toughest time for me but I know that I have no choice but to be strong.

The song starts and I move forward. I chose a song I would never play on my wedding. I chose the very opposite of what I would choose every time I thought about marriage. I hoped I’d have it all. A kick-ass career and a man by my side to fall on when everything goes south but all my hopes and dreams are thrown out the window and the only thing that’s keeping me together is the fact that my father gets to live.

It’s not your typical wedding song but it fits the situation like a glove. I didn’t think they would even play “Dynasty by Mia”. It’s pretty sad but I guess the people here are too rich to care.

In my world, we definitely pay attention to the words, especially on a day like this but from t

I've read a book very, very similar to this one so far on another app. Just name changes and instead of two brothers, it's one brother and an aunt. Hopes it the same author.

    EmilyI close the door, pick the dress laid out for me, and run downstairs as tears roll down my face. I can barely see and I might bump into someone but I don’t care. I find one of the bathrooms and I lock myself. Everything comes crashing down as I begin to sob uncontrollably. The hot tears don’t stop as I grip my chest and my knees give out making me sit on the cold hard floor. Why is this happening to me?I didn’t expect love but cheating? On the very night of our wedding is too painful. I should be by my father’s side but I can’t even be there because the contract doesn't allow me to until this is over.How long will I be made to go through the same kind of pain over and over again? If he is not cheating, he is threatening and insulting me. I wipe the tears but they don’t stop falling so I let them.Only this time, Kylie won’t be here to fix me when I’m needed again. The door knob twists and turns and I ignore it until I hear a voice I recognize, Nina.I force myself to stand

    Emily “Dinner at 8 PM, Eleven Madison Park.” The message reads and I sigh. The only thing left was the “Don’t be late.” threat. So much for being civil.It has been five days since our wedding which means five days since I caught him cheating. We have been basically out of each other’s way and we rarely cross paths. The penthouse is very big and I make sure to stay in my room when he is back from work, which is also rare, making me wonder if he ever returns home. When I moved in, I found an elderly woman by the name of Joane who comes in three times a week to cook and clean. Her cooking is excellent but she rarely says a word to me.Another person on the “Not Emily’s fan list.”I don’t know who the woman was on the night of my wedding but I was too tired to even regard her insult. I went home and slept it off that night hoping that when I woke up I would feel better.I didn’t. With a heavy sigh, I tuck my phone inside my back pocket and kiss my dad goodbye. He has been respondin

    Liam We have been trying to get the Milans to sell us their hotel in Seattle for six months now. It’s not doing well and we need expansion so it's a win-win situation but they have been giving me one hell of a hard time. No one is offering a better deal so why the delay? “Your marriage stabilized your position but you need to close this deal to prove that you are still good enough to the board.” Dad says and I wrinkle my nose as I respond with a flat “Yes.” I know he thinks I don’t give a shit about the Lockhart group but hell I work my ass off day and night to make sure it succeeds. I’ve been doing this since I turned eighteen so, I get so mad when Dad makes it look like I don’t care. Maybe I stopped at some point. But I want this to go through more than ever, and my little wife pulling that stunt earlier almost threw me off a fucking cliff. But I know her type. Wiggle money in front of them and they will do anything. That’s all it took. Or at least I tried to convince myself

    Liam My lunch with John Milan was postponed because he was called for an emergency and as much as I understood, I hoped to close this deal once and for all. My good mood from yesterday all goes out the window leaving me anxious and I hate it when I’m uncertain about a deal I want to desperately close. In this business, when you take too long, something always goes wrong and the most irritating part of it all is it happens before the board meeting and when Dad walks into my office. Same fucking pattern. “Are you ready for the meeting? It will be a bit rough today” He says flatly and I swing slightly in my chair with my eyebrow raised. “When is it ever smooth?” I respond but he ignores my blow by asking me another question. “Did you handle the Milan deal?” He knows I didn’t “No, it went well but-” I begin but he cuts me off. “Going well when nothing is finalized means nothing, Liam.” His voice sharp. “It wasn’t in my control, the man had-” He cuts me off again and I grind my t

    Liam I should be angry. In Fact, I am angry! Emily is being careless and any sort of article right now will cause more damage and right now I’m not in the mood to deal with angry stakeholders when I have a powerful deal to close. When I found her about to pass out, I wanted to ask Jake to take her back but then I saw her cry in her sleep and something in me just couldn’t, so here I am. Driving her back home in my Mercedes. This is a car that I never allow anyone to sit in. They’re only two 300 SLRs in the world and cleaning it is not easy. I step on the gas but I must have zoned out when the light goes red and I have to step on the emergency brake making the car abruptly halt and boy oh boy what a mistake! Shit! A dizzy Emily snaps her eyes open making her gag. “Oh no! Please, please!” I plead but it goes unanswered as she vomits everywhere The scent fills the entire car and I open the window for some air as she falls back asleep. I debate just dropping her off right here on

  • Mr. CEO, Please Love our mummy   Chapter Fourteen~ Frustrated

    Liam I had called her friend last night and made sure he would never meet up with Emily again. I have enough problems to deal with as it is and the least I want is having to see articles in my board meeting and Milan rejecting my offer. She even took her ring off and as much as that angered me, I let it slide. If she has lost it, I'll just buy her a new one. I have more important business to deal with right now anyway. I was sure it was handled but as I woke up, Jake was forwarding me tabloids on how my marriage was on the rocks which has led to my “wife “ going wild within a month. “Get the PR. I need all the articles down within ten minutes and hell, I’m pressing charges.” That was how my morning was ruined. I took it out on the root cause of all this mess. My so-called wife. I don’t even know what came over me last night. But I’m convinced I did it for the company. I love this company more than I let on. I mean look at me, Married to a goddamn gold digger just like “her".

    Liam Jake walks into my office with a file at hand and I’m glad something will take my mind off a few things. I have to sign the deal with the Milans tomorrow or else the board will find a way to question my position and I can’t have that. It seems my marriage worked after all. Dad knew what he was doing. “I found something interesting.” He says and I roll my eyes. “Don’t you always? What did you find?” I ask, my tongue laced with sarcasm “Your pretty little wife whom you hate so much actually has so many problems. It’s a secret but apparently, your dad offered her a deal to pay her father’s medical bills if she marries you.” He begins and I grind my teeth. So she is a gold digger? But a family committed kind? Hell, what am I even thinking? “Leave it,” I respond referring to the file and I swear I see him roll his eyes before dropping it. I pick it up and there it is, all the information that was kept from me laid out. I should have looked into this before the wedding

  • Mr. CEO, Please Love our mummy   Epilogue

    Hayden “ Come on we are going to be late guys, Kayden will start his presentation very soon.” I tap my fingers on the table impatiently. When we turned eighteen earlier this year, Kayden was finally able to get his tech company launched which we are all supposed to be attending but Mum and Dad seem to be having time in reverse. “We are coming! Pick Maya up please” Mum says and I roll my eyes. Maya may be my little sister but she can be annoying as hell as right now, I want to be on my best behavior because beauty will be there today. “No Mum, Maya will misbehave and I want to impress Beauty,” I complain earning a chuckle from Dad who walks towards me and ruffles my hair making my frown and irritation disappear. As Kyaden and I grow older, the more we look exactly like Dad so I’m even able to tell how I’ll look years from now and I must say, it’s not such a bad thing. “She will gain you more points. Women find men who babysit attractive.” Mum says but I shake my head. “You’re goi

    Three months later: Nina The church is decorated beautifully. There are white roses along the aisle, making it smell sweet. Candles have been lit, giving the church a warm glow. At the front, there is a pretty arch with white fabric and flowers. I peep through the window to ensure everything is perfect despite Emily who is my maid of honor telling me everything is perfect. It’s been three months since that incident that shook my life. I wasn’t panicking like I normally would but being on the verge of death twice made me realise something, that I don’t want to waste any second longer so the moment we reached home, I told Theo I wanted to get married. At first, he laughed and thought I was joking until he realized that I was serious. It took three months because he first wanted to make sure all the overseas offices were working perfectly before setting up his headquarters right here in New York. My girls had lost it when they realized that I was attacked twice but they knew that som

    Theo “So you think this is over?” My uncle’s text reads making me grind my teeth in irritation. I’m about to respond but my sweet angel’s voice pulls me from the text. “Let me visit the restroom.” She says and I offer her a smile as I try not to show the displeasure that I’ve just received on such a happy day. “Okay, Princess,” I respond and she walks toward the restroom. Too many minutes pass as I start growing uncomfortable so I walk to the restroom. To check on what has gone wrong. When I get there it’s awfully quiet. “Nina?” I shout but I’m met with a silent response. “Nina!” I shout the second time but I don’t wait for her response when I walk into the ladies and find her purse and her phone on the floor. My heart beats loudly as the realization of what has just happened hits me. My uncle has taken my girl! My heart is pounding in my chest as I realize what has happened. I thought stripping him off his title and announcing his retirement would make him live in a corner but

    Nina "A date mmmm, Maybe he'll propose!" Lily says excitedly but I shake my head. "We've joked a few times about it but I'm not sure he's ready. Any way guys, it's just an ordinary dinner nothing too crazy or extra!" I pause and look at the girls who are all looking at me with raised eyebrows. Because of our crazy schedules, we promised to always call each other on video so that we never miss a day in each other's lives. Kate is awfully quiet which makes me feel uneasy. "Kate is something wrong?" I ask making her shoot her eyes up with a shake of the head. "No, I'm sorry guys. There is this story that is giving me a headache. Nina, whether he proposes today or next year, Theo loves you and I don't think there is anyone else he'd rather do life with." A blush creeps my cheeks at Kate's words. I'm about to respond when I hear a car, "Okay girls, I've got to!" I shout as I quickly hang up and rush downstairs. As Theo's car pulls up to my house, I feel a flutter of excitement in my

    One year later: Nina "This is great Nina, I'm so happy for you!" My manager says as we look at the list of how many pre-orders we have for the new book. It's like a dream come true. One which I didn't think was possible especially with how scared I was before I decided to give my dream a chance! I smile at her, "Thank you so much Miss Fanwell for believing in me and giving me this incredible chance." "No problem sweetheart, let's make today a success too!" She claps her hands together as we get the ball rolling. I take a seat at my table and start signing the pre-orders while we wait for 10 AM to open the doors. I run a smooth hand on my paperback and my heart swells with emotions. With a smile on my face, I take a picture and post it on I*******m for the first time in a year. After my Dad attacked me, I had been so paranoid and couldn't post my picture anywhere especially after I discovered how he found me. Social media can be a dangerous place to post most of your life.

    Emily I don’t know how much time has passed since I locked myself into my room but I can’t go out there yet. Not until I’m certain of the threat I just received. A soft knock at the door makes me panic as I think of a way out “I’ll be there just a minute.” I shout. As I’m about to stand, my phone vibrates and when I see Liam’s name flash on my screen my heart beats so fast. What if someone just found it and they want to give me bad news? With a shaking hand, I swipe right. “Hello?” My voice comes out shaken. “Baby? Are you okay?” comes Liam’s voice and my heart rests instantly replacing my fear with anger. “Why didn’t you pick up? I thought. I thought.” Tears start to fall on my face as all the possible scenarios return but I don’t know how to say it without him being angry at the fact that I kept the threats hidden from him for the past three months. “I had to take care of something. You won’t be receiving any threats anymore. I found the one behind it. Let’s talk about it whe

    Liam After an hour-long drive, I finally reach a normal-looking house which I’m guessing is under another name and if anything happens here, no one will know, making a smile stretch across my face. This is about to get very interesting! I walk to the front door and open it carefully, the last thing I want is to be tied to a chair and put my kids in danger especially since I came here without backup. But I have a few friends nearby and they will be more than glad to help out. Pushing the door open, I step inside, scanning the dimly lit room. "Anderson, where are you?" I call out. The house is so empty, my voice echoes. I take a seat on the couch as I wait for the man of the hour to show up. "Liam, I'm glad you came," Anderson says, his voice calm but I can taste his fear at the tip of my tongue. I nod at him as he takes a seat on the other side. “You look better.” I begin and he chuckles but it’s a forced laugh. As I look at him clearly, I can tell he is having a hard time and h

    Liam After leaving Theo’s office yesterday, I had to visit Dad and tell him what I was up to, and when he gave me the go-ahead, I knew I had to end this once and for all. I walk into the board room where the meeting is expected to be held. After digging some dirt for Smith shareholders, I was able to buy off their shares making me the largest shareholder with 51%. Victoria’s father wasn’t expecting to see me so when I stepped into the board room he looked at me in furry. “This is a shareholder’s meeting! “ He announces but I ignore him and sit on his opposite end. I want to see how his face will look while I strip him of everything he holds precious. “I’m well aware.”I smile. His assistant must have caught on because he leans in and whispers something to him which turns his face pale. I clear my throat as I stand and button up my jacket slowly. Everyone looks nervous because they didn’t expect me to be here and I know they’ve heard about me especially since some are the people I
