Conan’s pov

No, it felt like I was holding Emma’s hand.

That scent, I can never forget that scent in my entire life.

I looked at my hands.

“Sir is anything wrong with the presentation?” the person who was giving the presentation asked.

“No, let’s postpone this for now,” I said and then walked off to my office.

Emma, you have always been on my mind in the last few years.

But that feeling I got yesterday, it was like you were with me.

Gosh that scent still haunts me even today.

Flashback

“Is the painter lady here?” I asked my assistant who smiled and nodded.

“She is here sir,” she said, and I looked at her.

She quickly stopped smiling and fake coughed.

“Should I tell her to start in your office?” she asked me, and I nodded.

A few minutes later Emma walked in with a smile on her face.

“Morning Boss,” she said and started looking around.

“Would it be okay if I took pictures?” she asked me, and I gestured that she goes ahead.

“You really are a big shot. Such a fancy office

    Emma’s pov“Are you sure?” the Doctor asked me, and I nodded.“Yes, can you please prescribe some medication for me. Then we can do the surgery in two months,” I said to him, and he nodded.“No problem, here is some medication. This should help you, but just know that there are a few dietary restrictions as well,” he said, and I nodded.I took the medication and then walked back to the hotel and found them waiting for me.“Okay kids, go in the car and we will see you there. I need to talk to her,” Daisy said looking at me.She took out Jamie’s phone and handed it to me.“Play that video,” she said, and I pressed play.On the video was Conan and Lily.I stopped the video and looked at her confused and surprised.“What happened? How on earth did these two meet?” I asked her and she smiled.“The café we went to, we found him there. Jamie told me that they had the same mannerism that it was scary,” she said to me.“They both walk around carrying sanitizers, they are both really bossy,” sh

    Conan’s povAm I dreaming?No, the fragrance of the food and everything seems real.Not only that, but that is Emma for sure, but she also seems different.She has grown now and seems to have this maturity look to her.This isn’t a dream; in my dreams I see the younger Emma.The Emma that I married and fell madly in love with.“What are you doing here? And don’t say cooking, you left years ago and why are you suddenly back now?” I asked her.“What do you want to hear? I could say that it is for love. That I woke up today and realized that I can’t live without you. Or I could say it was because I was bored, I am back, does the reason matter?” she asked me and scoffed.Who is this stranger in front of me? Because I know for certain that she isn’t the woman I married.“Just answer the question,” I said, and she just shrugged.“I am here to claim my rightful place,” she said, and I looked at her confused.“Which is by your side as your wife. I am here to reclaim the rights I have over you

    Emma’s povI looked around at the empty house and I felt lonely.I haven’t been alone for as long as I can remember, and I had forgotten how painful solitude can be.Ever since I met Daisy and I the kids, I haven’t had even one meal alone.I took the remaining food and put it in the fridge and went upstairs to get ready for bed.Conan came out of one of the bedroom and his eyes landed on me.“I am staying, but don’t even think for a second that you and I will share a room,” he said, and I rolled my eyes at this.“Don’t worry, I have already prepared a room for myself. We won’t be sharing a room,” I said, and my eyes landed on the master bedroom.It was locked, he doesn’t sleep in our bedroom anymore but sleeps in one of the guestrooms.“Don’t worry Mr Hansen, I have no intentions of bedding you,” I told him, and he scoffed.“You once said the same to Matt, and 2 years later you ruined our marriage and life by bedding him,” he said, and I sighed.“Good night Conan, the food is in the f

    Emma’s povI couldn’t even sleep a little because of everything.All I tried to do all night was trying to figure out what I should do.Where should I even start with all of this?I looked around and I realized that I didn’t have any clothes to change into.I need to find something to wear while I am washing my clothes then I can go shopping.I got showered and went to Conan’s room and found him gone already.It’s 6am and he is gone already.I took one of his shirt and wore it while waiting for my clothes to dry up.I heard the doorbell ring and I decided to go downstairs to see who it is.As I was coming down the stairs, my eyes landed on Conan who was opening the door.“Hey Con, I bought you some pastries from the best pastry shop in the City,” the girl said.I took a good look at her and I knew exactly who she was.“Jenna, I have made it clear that I don’t want you to come to my house at all,” Conan said to her.“But Con, I told you that I love you. I have loved you all my life,” s

I want it to be at 10 am, we should discuss further the future of the company,” Conan said.Shareholder’s meeting, now that I think about it I am also a shareholder of that company.Conan didn’t want me to feel insecure about anything, so he gave me shares of his company.And he was scared that if anything happened to him then his family would have likely taken everything from me.They have the money and means to take away anything that he could have left for me.So, he bought me shares in his own company and then gave them to me.They are in my name which means I am also a shareholder.And not only that, I believe that I own about 15% of the shares in that company while Conan owns 25%.And the rest had been divided among other shareholders with Conan and his parents being the majority shareholders.But now that the company has grown to this extent it’s time I enjoy my wedding present.I went upstairs and got dressed and I

    Emma’s pov“That concludes the end of this meeting,” Conan said as he got up.“What happened with you? Did you really give this girl 15% shares of the company. Even I your mother don’t have that many shares,” Mrs Hansen said, and I looked at her.“Mother let’s not talk about this now,” Conan said, and he seemed tired already.“And you, how dare you come back here after everything you did to my son?” Mrs Hansen asked me.I chuckled as I looked at her and then got up from my seat to leave.“I asked you a question, now answer me,” she said, and I turned around to look at her.“You never accepted me as your son’s wife or your daughter-in-law. Now tell me Mrs Hansen, why should I waste my time talking to you?” I asked her.I watched how her eyes widened as she looked at me like she couldn’t believe it.“What did you just say?” she asked me, and I smiled.“I am saying that I don’t have time for this, and I don’t have time for you,” I said and then walked out.“Are you just going to let her

    Emma’s povAs I was leaving the restaurant I got a call from Daisy.“Girl, you are all over the news. And they aren’t saying anything good about you,” she said, and I sighed.“I knew that much, so try your best to keep Lily from seeing the news,” I told her.“I will try, but you know that your daughter loves reading the news. It will be hard to keep her from finding out,” she said, and I sighed.“So, all this time you neglected to tell me that you are rich,” she said, and I found myself smiling.“It isn’t my wealth to brag about,” I said and after a few other things I ended the call.Now what to do, I do know for certain that Matt had help.The contraceptives, how did they end up in my blood?This can only happen if someone I know had been secretly giving them to me.That someone must have had excess to my food.That would be hard to tell since everyone who was here had access to my food.It could be the chef; Conan didn’t want me to cook all the time.So, he hired a chef and there we

    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

    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

    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

    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

I called a few magazines and newspapers to cover our wedding,” he said and I saw how Lisa frowned.“You did what? But you and I agreed that we would have something small and intimate,” Lisa said and he nodded.“Yes, it will still be small and intimate. Just that we will share it with the whole world. I want the whole world to see that I am marrying this amazing woman,” Dean said with a smile.Lisa nodded and her phone rang and she picked it up.“It’s the boutique. I need to go and try on a few wedding dresses,” she said and got up.“How abou

    Emma’s pov“That is just amazing, I am happy with this,” Mr Shaw said and I smiled at this.“Thank you,” I said and all eyes in the room were on me.Matt, he has been having a hard time hiding his hatred towards me.“Excuse me for a second,” I said getting up to take a phone call from Daisy.It could be an emergency, she is with the kids and also is trying to start her business here in the city.She found a place but it is still undergoing renovations, she was tired of living in a small town.It has it’s benefits but at the same time it limits growth as well.It is very important that one moves away from their home town.Plus, her husband was born here in the city.She wants the kids to be closer to their father’s family since her family isn't even supportive.“What’s wrong?” I asked her the moment I answered the phone.“Nothing much, just that you should buy me a nice luxury bag because your daughter is such a problem,” she said and I chuckled at this.“What did she do now?” I asked

    Emma’s pov“What did you say to Sarah?” Conan asked me and I looked at him confused.He handed me his tablet and I had a look at what he was reading.It was an article written by Sarah, she was apologizing for everything she wrote about me.Spoke about our past at the orphanage and all the things she knows about me.She was praising me and it was actually the best article she ever wrote.It had so much rawness and emotion, not just because she wrote about how great I am.“I don’t know what happened,” I said and then sighed as I looked at Conan.“I do hate that her so called family got away with it. Adopting a child just so they could treat her life trash,” I said and Conan smiled.“Well, good thing I managed to get even with them. Or I tried,” he said and I looked at him confused.“What did you do?” I asked him and he just shrugged.“I found out that they have a connection with one of our business. They are some small time supplier, I fired them and got new suppliers. And they are als
