Chapter 21

Emma was dumbstruck by the revelation but she was more confused than shocked and her confusion was visible in her eyes.“Why is my grave… Cetaph there?”“It is a grave. Your remains from the fire are buried there, as for how those remains were planted there…”“I remember Mumma telling me I had bob cut when they brought me home.”“Mumma?”Ryan asked a little surprised, he knew she had a foster family but his reports told him they had cut ties 5 years back, yet Emma addressed them so dearly.“Yes, my foster mother.”“Their attitude towards you…”“Oh, they were great parents to me. It wouldn’t be farfetched to say they loved me more than their own”“That’s great…”

Chapter 22

“My room?”“Yes. Come.”Ryan said with a warm smile, as he led her towards the walk-in closet on the opposite side of the room, hidden behind the T.V. wall.The room maintained a spacious atmosphere without crossing into gaudiness; furnished with minimal and elegant furniture, while exuding a sense of luxury and sophistication. It had a large European-styled, king size bed at the center, elevated with three stairs and sheer-beige curtains tied to the four bedposts at each corner.A set of large sliding doors opened onto a grand balcony decorated with various flowers to its right. In the right corner of the balcony, a bamboo swing with its borders outlined by vines stood, with a small coffee table in front of it.To the left corner of the balcony was a comfortable bed on the floor with cushions of various sizes littering around it aesthetically.On the left side of the bed

Chapter 23

After several more moments of dwelling around the portraits, the sibling duo walked back upstairs and sat on the comfortable leather sofas in Emma’s room.Ryan handed Emma the steaming cup of hot chocolate, which he had asked the butler to prepare for them, to chase away the winter chill.“I’m still unfamiliar with what you like to eat and drink, so tell me if you don’t like something, okay?”“Okay.”“You“You’re not a very enthusiastic or hyperactive person, to begin with, now you look even more somber.”“No. It’s just I have a lot on my mind.”“Share it with me. I might not be able to help you out with it but at least it will take off some pressure on your mind.”Ryan’s earnest and genuine concern, made her smile softly, before placing down the untouched cup of hot chocolate onto the coffee table.“I’ll be frank then. If I wasn’t abandoned, then why could you not find me all these years?”“Eve…”“No, let me finish.”Emma’s steadfast tone made Ryan sigh in defeat as he motioned her t

Chapter 24

Ryan’s sudden question caught Emma off-guard.Letting her biological parents know of her existence isn’t a problem but the choice would change a lot of things.To begin with, she had just left a snake pit and wasn’t ready to enter another, in fact, even more powerful snake pit, even if this one happens to be her rightful home.Also, she still hadn’t gained her foster parents’ forgiveness. She had already disappointed them and she did not want to disappoint them any further by not discussing with them.Despite the rough patch their relationship was currently experiencing, they have always treated her better than their kin.Even now, her foster parents made sure she had enough money to live comfortably, though not directly but they indirectly let her sister make sure of her comfort, by making her randomly drop some groceries and other stuff on random excuses.“What are you worried about? Do you still doubt that you were abandoned?”“No, it is not the case. You can let them know about me

Chapter 25

“Can I please come in?”“… Alright.”Emma stepped aside, letting him in, a frown sitting between her brows, clearly not appreciating the company.Closing the door behind her, she asked him to take a seat on the sofa while she went inside the kitchen to grab him a glass of water.“I’m really sorry to disturb you at this time. Did I wake you up from sleep?”“I was awake. Is everything alright? You look worried.”Emma questioned as she handed him the glass of water, which he took with a grateful nod.Aaron took a slow sip as he bought himself some time to answer Emma’s question.“Actually… Do you remember what I told you I do for a living?”“Freelancing… Finance.”“Yeah, I have trouble with my current client.”“Did you lose their money? How much?”“No…”“You’ve helped me a lot in the past few weeks. If there is anything I can do to help you please let me know.”“Oh no. It is not about money. I had a minor disagreement with my current boss. He sent some men to my place to get me…”“Is tha

Chapter 26

“I should be saying that, Miss. Wright.”“What?”“You tend to somehow always manage to get into my arms, willingly or unwillingly.”“Mr. Howard, let go of me.”“What do you say when requesting someone, Miss. Wright?”Christopher asked with a pleasant smile, not bothered even in the slightest with all the attention on them, not even the gaping mouths of his secretary team fazed him.Unlike him, Emma was growing redder by the moment with all the attention.Her coworkers were already guessing who she slept with to secure her job here and this situation with Christopher will simply cement her slut image in their minds.“Always a spectacle, aren’t we? Miss. Wright, I must say. You do have a talent.”Like the straw that broke the camel’s back, it was the last straw that broke her.Tears gathered in her eyes, as she stubbornly, freed herself, momentarily surprising Christopher, as he quickly supported her from falling backward in her struggle.He quickly took back his hands once he was sure s

Chapter 27

“Mom! Dad?”Ryan called out as he hurried towards his parents, Christopher and Emma.He let out an unconscious breath when he was sure his parents were yet to properly notice Emma, how was still a question yet to be answered.As for why Christopher and Emma were involved in a situation in the first place, he knew where to look for the answers.“Ryan? Did the sun rise from the west today? You came down to receive us?”Hyacinth teased her son, as she immediately forgot about the lady and approached to hug her son.“Finally remembered your son?”Ryan joked as he embraced her briefly glancing at Emma to make sure she was alright, but her open palm with bloody traces on them, along with the fact that Christopher held her palm in a seemingly firm grip was enough for him to stiffen up.This was enough for Hyacinth to look behind along with her husba

Chapter 28

Rudolf was a very intimidating man when he wanted to be, just like back at the vineyard, his aura was suppressive, so Emma did not dare approach him directly.Looking at his little sister pleading for another man, Ryan was not pleased in the slightest but he did not want to be upset any further than she already was, so he looked at his Dad.He could’ve called off the bodyguards on his own, but he did not want to surpass the authority of his Dad while he was present there.Not that Rudolf would’ve minded but Ryan held immense respect for his Dad that it was an unconscious move he always made, always looking for his Dad’s permission no matter how big or small, if he was present there.Looking at Ryan and then, the young lady clinging to Ryan’s sleeve in a pleading gesture, Rudolf gestured for the bodyguards to stand back.“Aaron, I’m sorry for making you come all the way here. I’m not yet done with my work here, so please carry on without me.

Chapter 29

With nothing else to do, Emma closed her eyes but that irritated her eyes instead because of the lens.“Those lenses will damage your eyes. The restroom is over there, remove those contacts first.”“No…”“It wasn’t a choice, Eve. Now.”Ryan ordered her sternly as Emma stood up with no other choice but to comply.Whereas Rudolf and Hyacinth became the silent spectators of the budding sibling bond, thankfully not lost within the whirlpools of time.As Emma entered the lounge where an en-suite was present, Ryan stood up to fetch the first aid kit from one of the cabinets behind the sofa-set, Rudolf and Hyacinth were seated on.“I will cut to the chase. I met Emma when I was out with the rest, at first, she did not strike me anything different but as soon as she removed her contacts... See for yourself.”

Chapter 30

Meanwhile, Rudolf was watching Emma like a hawk.Daughter or not if she hurts his wife, she would be dealt with the consequences, and he would make sure of it.“Please don’t cry…”“I’m sorry my baby… Mumma didn’t protect you well.”“It wasn’t anyone’s fault. Please don’t blame yourself.”“No… I wasn’t a good Mumma to you…”“Please stop crying… I saw all the things you did in my memory, and it is more than I could ask for. I felt your love for me and if I were dead, I would’ve…”“Don’t talk about your death!”“Don’t shout at her!”“Mom? Dad? Don’t scare her off.”Ryan sighed in hel
