Lisa’s pov“Don’t try anything stupid tomorrow,” Dean warned and I looked at him and sighed.“You are getting what you want. Are the threats necessary?” I asked him and he smirked.“Of course they are, I don’t want you to start getting the wrong ideas,” he answered and I looked at him.He seemed angry for some reason but what?He is getting what he wants but seems to be nervous about it.“That bitch Emma, I don’t like your little friendship with her,” he said and I scoffed.“Emma and I are working together and that is all. Whatever little insecurity you are having about her. Don’t come and take it out on me,” I said and he looked at me.“Don’t forget, I have that video of your father,” he said and I shrugged.“So what? I am marrying you aren’t I? if you release it then you won’t get a penny from me,” I informed him.“What are you saying?” he asked me and I nodded.“I had a prenup drawn, if that video is ever leaked then you won’t get a cent from me,” I informed him.He looked at me an
Lisa’s pov“Thank you,” I said to Emma who just shrugged.I looked around the room, I have never had girlfriends before.The door opened and we all turned around to find Conan Hansen standing there.His eyes landed on Emma and I could tell the man was mesmerized.I looked at Emma and she was blushing under his gaze.So my suspicion was correct, this little girl behaves like Conan.She doesn’t shake people’s hands and is very picky about what to eat.She talks almost just like him although she looks just like her mother.“You look breathtaking,” he finally spoke up as he walked towards her.Next Kyle walked in and he looked at us and then frowned.“Women in white, should I be scared?” he asked and his eyes landed on me.“Aren’t you supposed to be getting married today? You are marrying some idiot, aren’t you?” he asked me and I shook my head.“I am sorry to disappoint you. But I am not marrying anyone tonight,” I said and he nodded.“Come on Daddy, mommy is wearing a beautiful dress. D
Emma’s pov“We just saw each other yesterday, did you miss me that much?” I asked Lisa and she nodded.“I did miss you, and also something has been bothering me all night. So I decided to look into it,” she said and then handed me some files.“It’s obvious that Lily is Conan’s daughter. But then why would all those reports say that he can’t father a child?” she asked me and I sighed.“I have no idea, I have been trying to find out the truth but with no luck. You know how private hospitals can be,” I said and she nodded.“Lucky for you, my father has a lot of connections,” she said and then gestured that I open the file.“Every time when Conan would go to a fertility clinic to get tested. Somehow the news would leak and it would be everywhere,” she pointed out.I remember that throughout the years I would find an article talking about it.I always just thought that maybe they were lying for clout since they do that a lot.They would lie just so they could sell and make money.“So thank
Emma’s povNo, not them again. I thought that I left that part of my life in the past.When Olivia mentioned them, I tried my best to ignore it.But now I can’t ignore it, they are the anonymous donors.They have a connection with the person that did this to me.Wait, Anne did mention that Matt would talk to a woman.Is it possible that Emily is the woman he was talking to?What did I do?What did I do that they would come back just to ruin my life?I left their family and their lives.“Cooper,” Conan said and his eyes landed on me.“You look pale, is everything okay?” he asked me.“I will get you some water,” Jamal said as he ran to the kitchen.“You know this Emily Cooper don’t you?” Conan asked me and I nodded.Jamal handed me the bottle of water and I had a sip.“She is my Aunt, she and my father were siblings,” I answered and he looked at me confused.“Wait, you have an Aunt who is a famous Doctor and also a rich person. Why did you grow up at an orphanage?” he asked me and I too
Conan’s povShe didn’t talk for some time and seemed to be deep in thought.She didn’t even answer my question when I asked if she was ready to talk about it.But I took it as a yes, whatever it is seemed to be weighing heavily on her.I have never seen her like this, I mean if you don’t mention that time of the cheating misunderstanding.“Remember when I told you about the two people I hate?” she asked me and I nodded.It was a long time ago but I always wondered who those people were.Emma had always been a very forgiving person ever since I met her.She wouldn’t just hate someone for no reason.I always wondered what it is that they must have done to make her hate them.Someone who is kind like her felt so wronged that she couldn’t forgive them.“It’s her and her son,” she explained and I frowned.“She is my aunt, Dr Emily Cooper is my father’s younger sister,” she added.Wait, so she does know this Emily Cooper?But ever since I met her, she had told me that she didn’t have any fa
Emma’s pov“You are really so beautiful Lily,” Maddie said and I smiled at this.“Thank you,” Lily said and continued eating her food.We were having a small breakfast date since it’s been long since we saw each other.She was telling me about how her life was going.I loved how she seemed happy and content in her new relationship.Whoever this new guy is, it’s clear that he is treating her well.“As I live and breath, is that you Emma Cooper?” a voice asked and I froze.After some time I turned around to look at the owner of the voice.He stood there with a smirk on his face.How I wish I could wipe that smirk off his face right now.“It’s been 14 years and you haven’t changed even a little,” he said and I frowned.“And this little girl must be your daughter, she is as beautiful as her mother,” he said and I got up and blocked Lily from him.“You have the nerve, I thought I made it clear that I wanted nothing to do with you,” I said and he scoffed.“That was a long time ago. We are f
Emma’s pov“I will be right back, get a drink and I will be back in a minute,” Conan said, and I nodded. He walked away but then turned back and kissed me on the cheek.“Did I tell you that you look breath taking?” he asked me, and I smiled.“Yes, this would be the fourth time,” I said, and he smiled at this.“Well, you look breath taking,” he added and then smiled again before walking away.I looked around the room trying to see if there is anyone I can socialize with.In Conan’s friends circle I hardly get along with anyone.I could see his sister, but she doesn’t like me at all and all I got from her was a frown.It’s been a year since Conan and I got married and we dated for a year, but she still hates me.Her entire family hasn’t accepted me at all.But my husband loves me more than anything and I am grateful.I watched as Jenna walked towards me.She has made it clear from day one that she was interested in my husband.“Look what we have here. Little Miss Orphan,” she said and
Emma’s povI looked around and realized how this all looks.I looked at a naked Matt who was getting his ass kicked and I wondered what happened. What the hell happened here? What is all of this?He left, he left, and I am sure of it. I said goodbye and closed the door, then what the hell happened after?I quickly got off the bed and ran to Conan.If I don’t stop him then he will kill Matt, “could you stop it,” I yelled.He stopped and looked at me, Matt started gathering his clothes and getting dressed.I watched as Conan took off his coat and then put it on my shoulder.He had tears in his eyes and wouldn’t even look me in the eyes.“It’s not what it looks like,” I said, and he scoffed a little at this.“So, you were just playing hide and seek in our bed? Is that why there are two used condoms on the ground?” he asked me.His eyes then landed on Matt and he went after him again.“In my house, how dare you do this in my house and my bed? And that too with my wife?” he asked beatin

Lisa’s pov“Don’t try anything stupid tomorrow,” Dean warned and I looked at him and sighed.“You are getting what you want.

Emma’s pov“So he shouldn’t suspect a thing?” Lisa asked me and I nodded.“Well, it’s a good plan. Anything to save my daughter from that vile man,” Mr Shaw said and I nodded.He then looked at me and I looked at him confused.“You have a strong sense of justice. Such a person can never do an injustice to another person,” he said and I looked at him confused.“He is trying to say that there is more than what meets the eye. I mean regarding the whole you and Matt drama,” Lisa explained.“I wouldn’t say there is more, but yes, everything isnt what it appears to be,” I answered and she nodded.“I knew it, you are just too hard working to be what those newspapers call you,” Mr Shaw said.“Not to forget intelligent as well,” Lisa added and I smiled at their compliments.“Thank you, I need to get going,” I said and got up and said my goodbyes to them.As I was walking into my office I found Dean sitting outside waiting for me.“He said that he is an old family friend,” my assistant explaine
Emma’s pov“He did what?” Mr Shaw asked me as he got up from the chair.“Exactly that sir, that son of a bitch has been blackmailing your daughter,” I said and I could see he was fuming.“Please come down,” I said trying to calm him down but he frowned.“No, I am going to kill that son of a bitch,” he said and I shook my head.“I have a better idea,” I said and he looked at me and then sighed.“Why are you helping us?” he asked me and I just shrugged.“I have a bone to pick with them as well,” I answered and he looked at me and then nodded.“What’s this great idea of yours?” he asked me.“I will answer, but first I need you to answer me. Why haven’t you come out yet?” I asked him and he sighed.“I just thought that it would ruin my relationship with my daughter. That she would look at me differently,” he answered.I smiled when I realized that his answer matched that of his daughter. Back when I asked Lisa why she didn’t ask her father or tell him she had a really similar answer.She
Emma’s povShe looked at me and then nodded.She tried on a few dresses while I gave her some feedback back way I could.When she came out again I found myself looking at her with a smile.Have you seen something and it feels like it was made for that person.This dress was made for Lisa and it fit her perfectly like a glove.“You look beautiful,” I said and she smiled but then started sobbing out of the blue.She ran back to the dressing room and I went after her to check what is going on.“Are you okay?” I asked her and she nodded but still continued crying.“What does Dean have on you?” I asked her and she looked at me confused.“His mother worked at your house, she had access and maybe found something that could ruin you. And the son, somehow blackmailed you into marrying him,” I explained to her.I know Dean, he probably realized that just getting money from her once wouldn’t be enough for him.So he just decided to marry his cash cow, that way he can milk it for the rest of his
