“I am sorry if this sounds off but is Mr. Maverick a blind man?” I asked, I didn't fail to notice the frown that appeared on her face and for some reason she looked past me, unable to give me the answer. “Is this how it is now? Asking my maids for information about me.” The husky voice I heard from behind me made me jolt in shock. Ray. Emma Watson's life runs out of control when she is sold to Ray Tucker, a blind billionaire as cold and fierce. Haunted by mock and betrayal, Ray is determined to keep on his own world and he sees Emma as nothing more than a means to an end for him because he believes she was just with him because of his money. But Emma is no fragile possession, she wanted to be out of his wrath. She stood up for him and conquered Ray' heart. In Ray' world of deception and hatred from his family, what happens when Emma is torn in between loyalty to Ray and to his family?
View MoreEmma Watson “Ray Maverick ! Answer me!” He yelled again as I gulped in nothing.“Good evening, Grandpa Ezra. How are you doing.” Ray greeted once he was in their midst. We were now facing the whole family.A woman in her 50s and a man in his 60s were definitely his parents because I have seen them more often on TV. Then the elder version of Ray and a lady.I quietly followed him, feeling uneasy with different eyes plugging their balls at me like I was an outcast. “Emma, come have a seat.” Ray must have sensed my uneasiness as he asked me to join him…Why was I even here? Clearly Ray couldn't stand up for me at this point.“Good evening, Rayian. How's my grandson coping with his health? I am sorry I am just checking up on you. You know we have almost the same issue here.” Grandpa Ezra said, and that was when I noticed that he was also in a wheelchair.Shit!“Good evening, sir and ma'am.” I greeted, trying to release tension that was clearly in the room, but I instantly regretted it.
Emma Watson A light knock on the door made me jolt up from my sleep and I raised my eyes towards the door, standing up on my feet to open it.As I opened the door, maids from different angles started to appear with different designers on their hands.My eyes widened, and I gasped, unable to believe what I was seeing.“W….who are those for?” I asked when they settled inside.“Ma am. Sir. Ray, asked for these to be sent to your room.” One of the maids replied, making me furrow my brows.“For what?”They all raised their heads at me. “We are not in question to know that, ma'am.”After dropping off the accessories, I couldn't help but wonder who this man was.Who was Maverick ?I picked up my phone, turned on the internet and did some research on who Maverick was. Then it all appeared, giving me a shock on my bones.Ray Maverick ? I mean, I am auctioned to Ray Maverick . The billionaire bachelor that got everyone tripping for him. I finally have him in my abode? But then, one thing struc
Ray Maverick I patiently waited at the dining table, hearing the ticking of the clock and the clicking of plates made by my maid, Belinda.“What did you make today?” I asked, and I heard a deep silence followed before a reply was given.“Your favorite dish, Sir. Caviar topped blinis” She replied and I sighed. “The lady?” “Dainty sandwiches, for her.” She responded, making me nod my head.“What is the time now, Belinda?” I asked, smacking my lips. The lady was testing me if the time had passed.“Two minutes past Seven, Sir.” She replied curtly, and before I could say something, I heard a rough walk from behind me, making a loud thud.Clumsiness. That's one thing I hated about women…“You're late.” I said, my voice cold as ice.“I'm” she started, but I interrupted her.“I despise tardiness, Emma. You had one instruction, and you failed to follow it.” I leaned back in my chair, my expression unreadable behind my dark glasses. “Do not let it happen again. It hasn't even passed a day, a
Emma Watson “Get a grip on yourself, Emma.” My mother, Eliana, spat out in annoyance as she gave me a dirty glare.I retreated my stares from her, scanning the room as the air turned suffocating, heavy with perfume, whiskey, and all you could call that was filled with Wealth.I tugged at the edges of my too-tight dress, a red number that she had insisted I wear. Likewise, I hated it. It felt like a costume for a role I hadn't agreed to play.“Stand up straight,” she hissed in my ear again, her manicured nails digging into my arm and causing me nothing but pain. “And for God's sake, try not to look pathetic.”I held in the urge to snap at her. To tell her, I am not the cause of the accident and I would never do that to my sister, but no, would she even listen? Even when it is darn obvious the accident was a mistake.The room suddenly felt silent. A man in black suit stepped onto the stage at the front of the room, holding a microphone.
