Conan’s pov“Is everything okay?” Emma asked Lily who frowned.“Nothing is okay, your daughter is a little monster,” the guy who just walked in said.“How am I a monster?” the little girl asked.The more I looked at her the more I realized that I have met her.I met her at the cafe that day a few weeks ago.The girl that the waiter thought was my daughter because of how she behaved the same way I did.That’s when I realized it and froze on the spot.The little girl, I felt connected to her the first time I met her.From what I picked up, she is lactose intolerant just like me.“Your daughter, she made us drive to this fancy hotel which was way out of our way because she didn’t want to use a public toilet,” the guy explained.“It’s his fault Mommy, he drives like a slug,” the little girl explained.“Like a slug? You should have heard her, she was busy telling me how to drive and she is 5,” the guy said.He sounded more amused that actually angry at the little girl.“I mean the kid is n
Conan’s pov“Wait, is Mr Conan my daddy?” Lily asked her mother. Emma looked at me and she seemed hesitant and conflicted.“Yes, I am your daddy,” I said as I walked towards my daughter.“Can you hug me?” I asked her and she looked at Emma yet again.Emma nodded and my Lily walked into my arms.I couldn’t stop the tears from falling off my face as I held my darling daughter in my arms.Her tiny hands patted my back and when I pulled away she gave me a big grin.“I am so happy you are my daddy, but that day when the waiter said that we are daughter and father. Why didn’t you say anything?” she asked me.“It’s because your dad wanted to surprise you,” Emma answered.I looked at Emma, where do I even begin to apologize to her?How do I even make up for any of this?I wasn’t in our daughter’s life because of my own stupidity.All those times I called our daughter hers.“Come on, let her finish eating so she can take a bath,” Emma said making Lily sit down.I sat down next to my daughter a
Emma’s pov“Are you okay?” Daisy asked me and I nodded.“I am fine, Conan’s family has never liked me. I am just glad that now they don’t think I am gold digger,” I said and she looked at me.“Why expose it now? I thought you said you wanted some time,” Daisy said and I shrugged.“I got to think about it. It would be easier for me to get my revenge when they are not in the way,” I explained and she nodded.“I have only a month left before the surgery that could determine my entire future,” I said and she smiled at this.“Health wise, how do you feel?” she asked me and I shrugged.“Well strangely I feel okay,” I said and she nodded with a smile.“Now that I am here, I plan on taking very good care of you,” she said hugged me.“Well, Conan seemed to be very heart broken when he found out the truth,” she said after a few seconds of silence.“Is that what you wanted?” she asked me and I looked at her confused.“Why would I want to hurt someone I love?” I asked her and she just shrugged.“
Conan’s povI felt two pair of small hands holding my face.“Mommy, Daddy is really handsome isn't he?” Lily said and I heard Emma chuckle at this.“He is probably the most handsome man in the world,” Emma answered.“I wish I looked like Daddy, then maybe I would be beautiful,” Lily added.“Wait, you look like me,” Emma pointed out to our daughter.“I know that Mommy, that is why I said I wish I looked like Daddy,” Lily retorted.I heard Emma gasp at this and there was silence for a few seconds.“Are you calling me ugly?” Emma asked our daughter.“No Mommy, you are very beautiful. But I want to have Daddy’s blue eyes,” Lily said.“Come on, let’s not bother your father,” Emma said.I heard them move around the room and then they left.I opened my eyes and found myself smiling at this.Gosh, I thought waking up every morning to hearing Emma’s inner thoughts was cute but damn I was wrong.The two of them together, I would die and kill for those two.They are the two most important people
Conan’s povFlashback“Getting married at such a young age, are you sure about this?” Matt asked me and I nodded as I laughed it off.“I love her, I am going to marry her anyway so might as well do it now,” I explained to him and he looked at me.“Really? Are you that in love with her?” he asked me and I nodded.“Oh well, there is nothing I can say to tell you otherwise,” he said and then had a sip of his whiskey.I didn’t want to drink since I would be meeting up with Emma later on.Matt drank until he couldn’t that I decided to call his driver to come and pick him up.I usually don’t drink with him anymore because every time when we drink he wants us to be surrounded by women.I know that I would hate it with every fibre in my body if Emma was surrounded by men.So I know that I would hate it, then why would I do to her what I wouldn’t want her to do to me?And I am lucky that Emma would never do such a thing.I took Matt’s phone and since I knew his pass code since this isn't the f
Olivia’s povFlashback“What are you doing here Matt?” I asked him and he smiled as he sat next to me.“Heard you and Conan broke up,” he said and I rolled my eyes at this.“Yes, and that is ancient history,” I said and he smiled at this.It’s been 2 months since I broke up with Conan and my family is giving me shit about it.What else was I supposed to do?He was always too busy for me and didn’t have enough time.Should I have continued with a relationship where I was constantly ignored?And Conan had made it clear to me that he didn’t have those kind of feelings for me.He made it clear that he cared about me but it wasn’t love.Well, I wanted love and not just his care.I want to be loved and cared for, I want someone who will accept me as I am.Someone who will always make time for me and wouldn’t tell me how busy they are.“Can you leave? I want to drink alone,” I said and he nodded as he patted my shoulder.“I will be in the VIP room if you need me,” he said and then walked awa
Conan’s pov“I would love if you left Matt to me,” Olivia said and then smiled.“But, there is one thing I can help you with. One thing you can get him on,” she added.She took out a file and I started reading it and I couldn’t believe my eyes.“You collected this information on him?” I asked her and she nodded.“Not just him, I have information on a lot of people. But Matt, that son of a bitch is mine,” she said and I looked at her.I get that she is angry that he didn’t keep his promise at all to her.He fed her this version of a future and used her for her own selfish needs.But that anger, there is more to it than that.What else could he have done to her that has made her so angry?My eyes landed on the kids that were playing and I frowned when I noticed something else.Her kids had bodyguards looking at them and they were a few others around us as well.They were disguised nicely that it took me time to realize that they were even here.“What did he do that you are even concerne
Conan’s pov“What the fuck is this?” Matt asked me and I shrugged.“I think you can tell what that is,” I said and he frowned.“You wanted some form of custody of my daughter,” I said emphasizing the my.“So, I found all the women you impregnated. Well, not all, but I found them and decided to help them,” I said with a smirk.“You want to step up, then do so and support those 11 kids you fathered. Their mothers will be suing you for support,” I said and got off the chair.“You will regret this Conan,” he said and I looked at him.The hatred and anger in his eyes.This isn't just jealousy but it’s hate, all I have done was help him.All I have done was be his friend when everyone else bullied and disliked him.“No Matt, you will regret this. I am not done with you yet,” I said and then smiled as I walked out.He ran after me and I turned around to look at him.“You did this, you chose that bitch over our friendship. You lost your mind over one woman,” he said and I shook my head.“No,
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
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 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
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
