Emily Elvis, a woman in her mid twenties, walked into the Losey Mansion looking as elegant as always,her heels clicking against the polished marble floors,Walking with her head held high,her eyes filled with anger.
For the past two months she had done everything possible to get in contact with him but each time she called his personal assistant won't let her speak to him. Then she saw him, Brian Losey. He was a young man in his early thirties with his short neatly trimmed light brown hair that was slightly wavy,his face well shaved with a well defined jawline and high cheekbones. His eyes are a striking shade of blue,framed by thick dark eyelashes. Emily was astonished by his looks,he looked more handsome than the man she was with three months back,she couldn't help but keep staring at him. But this was not why she was here, she was pregnant. She was carrying the baby of one of the most influential billionaires in the country. But Emily didn't care who he was,she was more concerned on what to do with the baby,she didn't want to keep it, but she was also scared to terminate it. Brian was surprised when he saw her,he knew he had seen this face before but he didn't know where. He kept staring at her as she walked closer to him. “She was beautiful,” he whispered to himself. Brian could see in her eyes that she was furious,he wondered who she was and why she was so mad,and why she was even at his house. Emily walked up to him looking directly into his eyes she said “I know you can't remember and might be wondering who I am or why I'm here, but I'm not here to beat around the bush either,I am pregnant for you Brian Losey” Brian was surprised at this woman's confidence,he had never met someone that dared to look him directly into his eyes or even called him by his full name. Rumors abound that he was so cold and heartless because of his callous nature. “Who are you?” Brian asked in his deep authoritative voice. Emily became more furious because she could recognize this man,so why couldn't he recognize her. “I am Emily Elvis and I am carrying your baby” this time Emily was even more furious with her piercing eyes never leaving his face. Brian was still confused, he looked at her closely. “It was her, the woman from that night”But she was different now,she was looking so beautiful. “How is she pregnant,it was just a one night stand” Brian thought to himself. Seeing that he was lost in thought, Emily snapped her fingers at him. “Okay miss Emily, since you're pregnant for me, then keep the baby” Brian said as he took a sip from his coffee. Emily was surprised, she expected him to ask questions, he wasn't supposed to just accept “You want me to keep the baby” Emily was calm this time, she thought he was going to argue. Brian was skeptical about it,but seeing as there was no hint of insecurity on the woman's face,he decided to believe her. “I will keep the baby but I have conditions” Brian's expression immediately went from shock to curiosity “Okay, whatever you want miss Emily” Brian replied almost immediately, gesturing towards a seat. “First,you'll marry me” Emily was taken aback by her own words,she didn't know why she said that but she had to,it was for her baby, she didn't want her child to grow up without a father like she did. Brian was stunned, he looked at the woman standing before him again but her eyes were cold and unwavering,he knew she meant business. “The wedding will be at the registry, just you,me and thirdman from both parties, it's your wish to tell your family about it, no one needs to know about it,you can go about your life,I just need you to play daddy duties, you don't have to take care of me at all, and we'll both contribute financially for the baby's upkeep”Emily continued. “If I must abide by your conditions,I also have mine”Brian said furrowing his brows “You'll move in with me after the wedding,you can't take up any job as long as you're still pregnant, you'll do a DNA test after the baby is born,we'll have a divorce after five years,the child will take turns and I'll make sure you're comfortable after the divorce since you'll be raising my child” Do we have a deal miss Emily Elvis “Yes, Brian Losey” * * * * * * * Emily took a ride back home, she decided to stop at the mall to get a dress for the wedding,she couldn't help but think about the night she met Brian. It was a hotel, she was at the lounge having drinks, she just broke up with her boyfriend Jayden who she caught cheating on her. In her sober state she saw Brian who was also looking drunk,so she decided to go share a drink with him. They talked for a while, Emily was too drunk to go home and Brian offered her to spend a night with him. She was in the room with him, Brian was so handsome she had to kiss him The kiss was so perfect. “We're here ma'am” Emily was brought back by the driver. Emily got into the mall, she wasn't feeling any dress,so she went for the first one in her size,she decided to get some groceries on the other end of the mall, She took some groceries but was taken aback when she saw someone. “It can't be him," she said to herself as she kept walking” She couldn't help but stare at this man. “It can't be Jayden,” she said to herself . Seems like the young man noticed and there was also a surprised look on his face. They both stared at each other for a while,Waiting for someone to say something,but Emily looked like she had nothing to say. She stopped staring and decided to just walk past. “Hi Emily,Nice to see you again” the young man said from a short distance. Emily just stood there as a drop of tears rolled down her cheek.Emily just stood there looking at Jayden, she was so furious,she thought about how he left her when she needed him the most. They were together for four years, Jayden was the person she considered as family since she lost both her parents at a young age. But he still went and cheated on her. She looked at him with so much anger, he was someone she used to love. “You look really beautiful” Jayden said. “What do you want” Emily voice was filled with anger. “Emily you don't have to be mean to me, I don't bite, I saw you and I wanted to say hi” “I don't need you to be nice to me Jayden, if you have nothing to say,I'll be on my way”Emily replied. “Babe” a woman shouted from a distance. “I've been looking everywhere for you”she said walking towards Jayden . “Emily, this is Angelica,my fiànce”Jayden said grabbing the woman by her waist. Emily felt a part of her heart shattered, how could he have a fiànce,they broke up three months ago,she couldn't hold it in, with the tears
“ding ding ding”the door bell rang. “Who's there”Emily asked as she hurried to get the door,she wasn't expecting anyone. She opened the door and saw a man standing . “Hi,I'm Scott, Mr Brian's personal assistant”the man said . “Oh, hi, can I help you”Emily replied . “Mr Brian sent these packages to you”he gestured towards some wrapped packages. “For me!!”Emily was surprised,she walked towards the boxes,there were two boxes. “Okay I'll be on my way ma'am”Scott said as he walked towards the black Mercedes that was parked by the side of the road. “Tell him I said thanks” Emily said as she carries the boxes inside. “What could possibly be in these boxes”she murmured as she walked into her bedroom. She put the boxes on the wooden bed that was in the room,she opened the first box gently. It was a dress,a beautiful peach dress that was exactly In her size. The dress was so simple,yet so beautiful. She found a note in the box that said “for the wedding” She tried the d
Brian got to the hospital,he went to the reception to sign in,he couldn't wait to see Emily, he was really worried about the baby. “Hi,I'm here to see Emily Elvis”Brian asked the nurse at the reception. The young lady could see that he was really worried especially because he was sweating profusely. “Sir, you need to sign this” she gestured towards a paper that was on the table. “Okay” he replied as he hurriedly signed the paper.The nurse collected the paper and his name caught her attention. “Oh my god sir,are you Mr Brian Losey,” she asked in excitement. “Can I see her now?”Brian replied, ignoring what the nurse just said. “Yes sir”she said as she hurriedly took him to Emily's room,she knew there was only one Brian Losey in the country,one of the most influential billionaires in the country. Emily laid on the hospital bed,with a drip on her hand. She was shocked when she saw Brian walk into the room. She remembered asking the doctor to call Brian,but she didn't th
It was morning,the day of the wedding, Brian was up,he had a meeting with one of his business partners, the meeting was scheduled for 7am, and was going to end at 10am, the wedding was to start by 10:30am, he knew he had to manage his time properly. On his way to the office,he thought about the wedding, getting married was never part of his plans. He has never met a woman that he really loves. He knew getting married to Emily will be a huge inconvenience for him, but if the baby was his,he needed to take responsibility.he reminisce about the time he met Emily at the hotel,he was so drunk that night,he had a really bad day and needed to clear his head, as they spoke to each other,he felt some sort of peace within his heart.He wasn't sure why he even invited her to spend the night with him,but when she kissed him,he felt a way he has never felt before, he knew he wanted more. “We're here”Scott told Brian who was lost in his thought. Brian stepped out of the car and w
Emily was shocked,she couldn't believe what she just heard.Brian could tell how uncomfortable she was from her reaction. “Have you met them before?”he asked as they walked closer to them. “That's Jayden,my ex boyfriend”Emily replied. “Hey bro”Angelica said as she hugged Brian.”you again!!!”she said as she turned towards Emily. “You know each other?” Brian asked Angelica “Yeah,we met at the mall, she's Jayden's ex girlfriend”Angelica replied. Just then Jayden walked up them,he was shocked when he saw Emily. “What are you doing here”he asked Emily. “Well; Brian said “meet Emily,my bride to be” “What!!!”Angelica and Jayden shouted In unison. Emily just stood there,blazed with anger,a part of her knew that Brian already knew who Jayden was. Jayden immediately felt uncomfortable, “How is this even possible”he thought to himself. “How did she get pregnant,just few months after our breakup”he had much thought running through his head.
At that point, Emily knew they were up to something, Elise would never offer to do something nice for her without taking something bigger in return. “Sister, pregnancy is a big deal, you don't have to do it alone, I want to be here for you” Elise words sounded alien to Emily's ear, Elise would never be intentionally nice to her. “Sister in-law, I think that's a really good idea, it'd be better to have someone by your side especially family.” Angelica said. “Family??” Emily laughed sarcastically.“I don't think my husband would be comfortable with that.” she said maintaining eye contact with Brian. “W…well” Brian stuttered. “That's fine, if you're okay with it” he said, immediately feeling uncomfortable. “Sister, I know we have our bad sides, but this is for your own good” Elise lifted the corner of her mouth in a sly smile. A part of Emily wanted to believe her “maybe she's trying to make amend” she thought… “Okay” she said “I'll
It was morning, Emily was woken by the sounds of the birds chirping outside, the fresh smell of the morning breeze was invigorating and refreshing. As she sat on her bad, she reminisced about everything that has happened in the past few days, from finally meeting Brian, to the wedding, everything just felt so unreal. For the past few months, she had been struggling with finding Brian, loosing her job and trying to fend for herself. She used to work at a law firm and was paid two hundred yhuan monthly, she was okay with her job and had saved so much money before loosing her job. She had always thought about owning her own fashion brand and was on the go to start one when she found out she was pregnant and after meeting Brian, her now husband, which she had signed a contract to not work as long as she's still pregnant, she had to postpone her dreams till she puts to bed. The smell of freshly cooked pasta and chicken sauce enveloping the whole room, bringing Emily who has
Brian got back from work and found Emily at the courtyard, ravishing as always, he stopped and stared from a distance, it hasn't been long since they met each other, but something about her brings peace to his heart whenever they were together. He recalled the doctor telling him that the only way he could heal, is by finding peace in a person. “Could she be the one?” He thought; but the doctor also told him that the person leaving him in the future would only make things worse. So he had always tried his best to completely stay away from people, but with Emily it was different, she was different, the way she talks, the way she acts, it all felt different to Brian. Emily noticed he was staring and waved from the distance. “Hey, you're back from work” “Yeah, I uhm just got back,___ I'll be heading to my room now” he was about to leave but he immediately remembered something. “I checked in with the doctor, he said you haven't been coming around for
It was night, Emily was dressed looking all snatched in her velvet silk dress, she stepped downstairs to meet Brian who was already waiting for her. "Shall we" Brian said as he opened the door and walked behind her. They got to the place and Emily couldn't believe her eyes, it was much bigger than she expected, she saw different people walking in through the red carpet, people she had seen on tv, people she could only dream of seeing in real, they were right before her. She held Brian's hands and they both walked into the showroom. "Hey Brian" a man said as he walked up to Brian and gave him a soft hug. "Hey Wilton" Brian replied. Emily couldn't believe that she was standing with Mr Wilton, and did Brian just call him by his name, wow. "Thanks for coming under short notice" Mr Wilton said "Oh and who's this beauty to behold?" Mr Wilton asked, gesturing towards Emily. "Meet Emily, My wife" Brian replied. "
(Knock knock) Emily's door opened, it was Brian, he was holding a tray of food. "You weren't down for breakfast, I decided to bring some up here for you" he said stretching the tray of food forward. "Thanks" Emily said as she collected it, and closed the door. Brian stood there for a while before finally heading to his room. "What is wrong with me?, why am I mad at him?, it wasn't his fault, I think I'm being too mean" Emily said to herself as she took a bite from the sandwich that Brian gave her. "I should talk to him" she said as she put the food down and headed to Brian's room. Brian's door was slightly opened, so she walked inside and met him focused on his laptop. "Hey" she broke the silence. Brian was shocked to see her, they haven't spoken since Elise left. "Hey" he replied. "Things have been really awkward between us and I just want to say that since we live together, best we can do is t
Emily ran downstairs, she couldn't believe her eyes, it felt like her world was crumbling right before her eyes, her sister and her husband in bed, no it must be a dream. " Emily wait" Elise called out as she ran and held Emily's hands. Emily pushed her away, "I trusted you Elise, why did you do this to me" Emily said, tears rolling down her cheeks. "No sis, he took advantage of me, he wanted to forcefully sleep with me" Elise said, on the ground holding Emily's feet. " How dare you lie to my face Elise?, he took advantage of you, but you were the only naked person in the room, I knew you were up to no good, If Nina had not sent me that video on time, who knows what you would have done" Emily said, her voice filled with rage. "What video" Elise said filled with curiosity. "A video of you lacing Brian's drink" Emily said as she brought out her phone, and played the video on loud speaker. Elise couldn't believe her eyes, she made sure
Emily managed to avoid Brian for the next few days, but on this day, Emily knew Brian was going to be home all day, she needed to be out all day, she had her usual antenatal checks, so she went earlier than usual. Brian woke up, took his shower and went downstairs for breakfast, he was surprised, “Emily is not here yet” he thought to himself. “ Where's Emily?” he asked Nina. “She's gone for her usual antenatal check, sir” Nina replied. Brian was a bit disappointed, he always looked forward to seeing Emily everyday at the dining table, he had his breakfast and headed upstairs, back to his room. He picked up some documents on his mini desk beside his bed. He was about to open them when something caught his attention. There were two brown boxes on top of his wardrobe. “what could be in there” he puts the documents on the desk and brings the boxes down. “Oh, I must've skipped this,” he said as he opened the boxes. There were a bunch of h
The black car immediately speeds off, leaving Emily and Brian on the ground. Emily who was laying directly on top of Brian, her eyes tightly closed, slowly opened them, “ Brian” she whispered. They stared at each other for a while before Brian finally pulled her up, “watch it Emily, what were you thinking, do you want to die” “No Brian, it felt like the driver was coming directly at me, I made sure there was no car before walking past” Emily said her eyes swelling up with tears. “Stop being delusional Emily, the car wasn't coming directly at you, the driver was probably drunk or just useless, thank goodness you're fine” he said as he tried to dust off his suit. He noticed the tears on Emily's face, she was still startled. “Don't worry Emily, you're fine, and I won't let anything hurt my friend” he said trying to make her feel better. She chuckled in between her tears, “thanks Brian, for coming through again” “Be more careful next time” Brian replied,
Upon Elise's return to her house she was still processing her discussion with Matt. She was so absorbed in her scheme to bring down Emily that she hadn't noticed how late it had gotten. As she walked into her room, she could hear murmured voices emanating from Brian's room. Raising her eyebrow, she felt intrigued about whom Brian was speaking with at that moment. To quench her curiosity, Elise stood by the door moving slowly like a cockroach that no one could suspect her, the atmosphere was quiet and transparent . As she moved stealthily towards the entrance Emily pressed her ear to the wood, she widened her eyes upon recognizing Emily's voice. “Emily again!" She whispers to herself. Elise paid more attention so she could hear their conversation clearly. After much attention, Elise was so shocked that their discussion was filled with passion and love but also with tension. "Hey, Brian! I'm so shocked you're finally going to see the doc!" Emily said, Brian could tell how much
Chapter 17Brian returns home angrily, his eyes full of regret and unbelievable knowing about Emily's plan and her concerns about him. Immediately he got home, he forced himself into Emily's room without even knocking at the door. Emily welcomes Brian with smiles trying to pull off the matters between them not knowing that he was angry. As she stood to greet him, Brain pushed Emily to the wall annoyingly without altering a word. Emily was so shocked and couldn't stop curious about what was going on. Her eyes welled up with tears as she stood in the doorway, her heart heavy with sorrow. She had never seen Brian so angry, his eyes blazing with a fierce intensity that made her take a step back. She felt like she was walking on eggshells, her every move magnified in the tense silence.Emily struggles to ask with tears in her face. “What's going on?" She questioned."You have no right to interfere in my life, Emily," Brian's voice was low and menacing, his words dripping with venom. "Yo
Brian's knuckles grazed against Emily's door, his eyes fixed on the wooden panel as if willing her to appear. The soft knock echoed through the silence, a gentle plea for forgiveness. He had been replaying their awkward encounter nonstop, the memory of his misread signals and the kiss that followed burning his cheeks with embarrassment. Yet, he knew he needed to apologize, to clear the air of the tension that now hung between them like a thick fog."Emily, can we talk?" he asked, his voice low and gentle, a soft breeze on a summer day. The door creaked open, and Emily's face peeked out, her eyes avoiding his like a child hiding from a scolding. Her voice was barely above a whisper, a delicate petal that might shatter if handled roughly. "What's up, Brian?"Brian's heart sank, his hopes of a warm reception dashed on the rocks of Emily's evasion. He noticed the way her gaze drifted to the floor, her cheeks flushing pink like a sunrise over a sleepy town. He took a deep breath, his wo
Emily's hands, still damp from the shower, left faint water spots on the table as she placed the cup of milk down. She turned to face Brian, her eyes widening slightly as she took in his imposing figure in her room. The surprise of his sudden arrival still lingered in her mind like the fading echoes of a scream. "Hey," she whispered, her voice barely audible over the pounding of her heart.Brian's eyes locked onto hers, his gaze intense and unyielding. He strode towards her with a fluid grace, his long legs eating up the distance with a confident stride. Emily's heart skipped a beat as he stopped inches from her, his warmth radiating towards her like a gentle heat wave. The scent of his cologne wafted towards her, a subtle blend of spices and leather that sent a shiver down her spine."Hey," he replied, his deep voice low and husky, like the rumble of thunder on a summer evening. He gestured to the chair beside her, his hand moving with a slow, deliberate grace. "May I?" he asked,
