Chapter 10: Time for Truth

Author: Carla Grey
last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

The news reached Hunter in no time. After watching the video clip of what had happened that night, he sat there with a cold expression on his face and did not say a word for a long time.

An hour after the incident, after hours of searching, someone found Emily's Instagram account, with all the posts deleted, leaving only a message she had posted an hour ago: I'm sorry, I was wrong.

Emily had apologized as he wished, but it was a little ironic and ridiculous now in view of all the things that had been revealed.

Joseph stood in front of Hunter's desk. After he finished speaking, he kept his head down, scared to look at Hunter and see the anger that he must have been feeling.

The atmosphere in the office was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe. Hunter's face was literally covered with frost, and his black eyes were as dark as the sky before a heavy rain.

"Get rid of the news within half an hour!"

Joe froze for a moment. "But sir, we can't remove it."

    While Emily was still boiling with anger about what had happened, she was dragged by Dave to the First Star. She wouldn't have gone if it had been someone else, but it was Dave's birthday, so she tried to put the Thornes out of her mind.Dave was still a party king and it was clear that he was also a regular at First Star. There were many people, and almost all of them knew each other given the exclusivity of First Star's members.After dinner, Emily began to prepare for the party. Not a partygoer, her clothes were expensive, but not fabulous. She was wearing a black blouse with a slim, striped suit. She wore a pair of seven-centimetre high heels under her black trousers. She looked every inch a professional and less the celebrant's friend. Dave was going to be incensed, she chuckled.Inside the club, Emily removed

    The loud noise from inside the First Star club had reached Hunter before he could enter it. He hated clubs because of the atmosphere, but he hated the noise the most, and the din inside the club was exactly what contaminated his ears.Pete, who had dragged Hunter along, just wanted to see what the well-known Summer Band could do and wait for Hunter to see the amazing change of his ex-wife on the stage.In the beginning, Emily's friend, brimming with confidence, had said something excitedly. Pete snorted thinking,“Bro, you have normal features, maybe you're a little good-looking, but what's with the shameless attitude on stage?”No sooner had the stage opened than Pete was made to eat his own words! Maybe he had been a little quick to judge the guy, because from what he was seeing and listening to, the boy had talent!He used to be a hot-blooded youth, and though he was old now - no, mature - it did not mean that he'd had no dreams when he was young.The four people on the stage were

    FLASHBACKLooking at Emily's back, Veronica was so angry that she wanted to catch up with her, but she was stopped by Hunter.She turned to look at Hunter. "Brother?"Hunter looked at her with eyes so cold she was scared. "Don't mess with her."Veronica wanted to argue, but when she looked up and saw Hunter's eyes, she froze for a moment and then frowned. Why would Hunter be defending his ex over his own sister? "She was the one who hit me..."Hunter loosened his grip and raised his head to look at Emily, who was already at the door. He frowned slightly. In just three months, she had become a rebel. And he didn't know why, but this Emily was fascinating. Emily on the other hand, kept moving forward until she got in the car. She didn't even look back at the person behind her. As Pete said, it was not worth it.Dave, who had come to pick Emily up at the dinner glanced at her when she entered the car and remained quiet.

    In just five minutes, the audience was already at a climax. After the performance, there were still people shouting "Encore!" and calls for more resounded. The bandmates who were about to step down looked at each other, and finally, their eyes fell on Emily's face. Emily smiled, knowing why they were looking at her. "Why not?"She went back to the drum stand, picked up her drumsticks, and for another twenty minutes, the band entertained the club, giving it their best. It was only after 20 minutes that the four of them came down from the stage. They had never been so passionate in the past ten years. Dave was still unsatisfied. "At this stage, I think we can form a band and make a debut. That was brilliant!" Emily took the warm water from Colin's hand and glanced at Dave. "You won't say that when we do debut." With Dave, one couldn't deny that she was into music and bass guitar. However, should they really debut and were straitja

    Hunter strode into his office, angry, tired and frustrated with the world and a particular woman. He hadn't slept throughout the night and now he was staring at his secretary's seat, empty where Emily should have been. He had thought she would crawl back to him as she always did. But three days after her disappearing stunt he still hadn't heard anything from her. He had been sure that she would be back, crying and begging for his forgiveness as she always did. But now, she was proving different and he did not like it, Emily was becoming someone he did not know. But How dare she? He thought angrily. After trying to kill Carla, killing his unborn nephew and almost injuring his mother, she thought she could go scout-free, doing anything she could and thinking she could get away with it. Or did she think he would come chasing after her just because she walked out of his house? Well, if that was her plan, he would prove her terribly wrong. No one offended the Thorne family and went scot

    Three days earlier… “Atish!!!” Emily shook badly again. She had sneezed so hard she was sure that her cheek would start bleeding again. The cold, coupled with the fact that she was wearing a sleeveless dinner gown which was certainly not intended to be worn in Winter without a coat. Around Emily, the Thorne servants scurried about as they went about their separate business. Some were preparing the house for dinner, others were busy providing whatever the doctors asked for. Not even the head doctor had spared her a glance even though he had known her for the three years she had been part of the family. Still, he was never her doctor - - no one considered Emily good enough to warrant an expensive doctor. Emily had been a member of the Thorne family for three years, but she might as well be less regarded than Hunter’s sister's cat. She was nothing close to Carla, Hunter's sister-in-law. Unlike his hatred for Emily, Hunter loved Carla much more than anything in the world. An hour ag
